On my way...

This is a text for brokenhearted people and all other people who are also having a difficult period just like me sometimes...
It's called: On my way...

I'm closing the door,
streets seem to be crying,
clouds seem to be running away.
I'm stepping on the bus, I'm getting off the bus,
people seem to be watching,
but I want to evade them, but I want to evade from them
before they see me...

It's already long time ago, It's been a long time ago
that you didn't forget my birthday,  but you didn't forget my birthday
that you chose for me unconditionally.. and you chose me unconditionally

I see the fields,
Alongside me there are houses..
It's silent behind the windows.
Who can see me..?
in blue enlightened trains. In blue, I alighted  from a train
Your heart is so close with me,
but it doesn't beat...

And the time has already been long time ago.. And the time has already been long gone (or And it has already been a long time ago or And the time has been gone a long time ago)
your black hair and your laughs..
that you were the whole world for me..
It's still too deep inside me..
that I could share what you had..
You went through my hairs and said..

you don't know my voice,
who I am, is what you see now..
Do you wanna dance with illusions?
Are you further than the present, Are you far from the present
do you want to go back to the past? or do you want to go back to the past?
Does that look appealing to you ?

And the time has already been long time ago.. And the time has been gone a long time ago
red wine on a terrace.. red wine on the terrace
that you were the whole world for me..
It's still too deep inside me..
but I forgot how you saw me.. but i forgot how you see me (or but I forgot how you look at me)
that I'm so different than you.
I'm walking in the street,
but it will never warm me up,
because it can not embrace me..
Who would see me..
I would preferably like to yell the most..
I would like to yell eternally..
but I don't succeed.. but, I didn't succeed

You are only mine now..
I can let see the whole world.. I can let the whole world see
that it's maybe better like this.. that maybe, it's better like this
The time has already been long time ago.. The time has already been gone a long time ago
and I forgot how you saw me, I forgot how you see me
that I'm so different than you...

Thank you for your attention,

Best regards,
Angelo

Ang Pag-Aaral ng Isang Wika

I found this Tagalog language introduction on the Seasite NIU website (http://www.seasite.niu.edu/Tagalog/). I've found this entire website to be a great resource for anyone studying Tagalog, though I believe an intermediate student would benefit the most from their material.

I've also included an English translation of the introduction. Note that after working a literal translation, I modified the text to standard English with what I could translate. Trying to find the root Tagalog word really helped with this exercise. I wish I could say the translation is all mine, but Google Translator helped me with some of the words I didn't know. Regardless, it turned out to be a helpful exercise to measure progress. Feel free to add any comments that may be helpful to other language learners.

Note: parentheses represent uncertainties in both the original website text and the translation


["Ang Pag-Aaral ng Isang Wika"

Ang pag-aaral ng isang wika ay madali sa ilang tao at napakahirap sa iba. Sino ang nahihirapan at sino ang nadadalian?

Ang nahihirapan ay mga taong mahiyain at mahina ang loob. Ayaw nilang magbukas ng bibig dahil natatakot magkamali. Ayaw nilang mapintasan ang maling pagbikas o maling pagsasamasama ng salita. Hindi sila magsasalita hangga't sa palagay nila ay tamang-tama na ang sasabihin nila.

Ang nadadalian ay ang hindi nahihiyang magkamali. Kahi't balu-baluktot, pinipilit nilang magsalita. Malakasang kanilang loob.

(Mandali) ring matuto ang mga taong mahilig makipagkaibigan. Dahil gusto nilang makipagkaibigan sa mga mamamayan ng bayang kanilang binibisita, nagsasalita sila sa salitang banyaga. Kahit (a la) "ako Tarzan, ikaw Jane."

Anong uri mag-aaral kayo?]



["The study of Language"

The study of language can be easy for some and difficult for others. Who is it difficult for and who is it easy for?  The study of language can be easy for some people and very difficult for others. Who finds it difficult (or who are having difficulty) and who finds it easy?

The people that have difficulty are shy and weak inside. The people who are having difficulty are shy and weak inside.They don't open their mouth because they are afraid to slip. They don't want to open their mouth because they are afraid to commit mistake/s. They don't (reproach) correct diction or incorrect (fellowship) when speaking. They don't want to be criticized for the wrong pronunciation or incorrect grammar. They don't speak unless they assume they are correct in what they say. They won't speak unless they think that what they are going to say is (just) right.

The (good students) aren't ashamed to slip. Those who find it easy aren't afraid to commit mistakes. Even (when twisted) they force themselves to speak. Eventhough it's crooked, they try hard to speak. They are strong inside. They have the guts.

(Mandali?) also learn that people are willing to make friends. People who loves to make friends could learn easy, too.  Because they want to make friends with citizens/people they are visiting and speak foreign words to them. Because they want to make friends with citizens of the country they are visiting, they speak words that are foreign to them. Because they want to makae friends with the  Even (a la?) "I Tarzan, you Jane."

Which type of student are you?

My Plan , Someone can give me advices?

I intend have trip and learn English at foreign this years, hope this trip can makes more friends from around the world , I also want find a appropriate Job as intern because i don't have any about work VISA,I don't know how to do. I want to learn English because I intend to travel to other country (foreign land). On my trip, I hope to make more friends from around the world. I also want to find an appropriate job as intern. I don't have work visa and I don't know how to secure one (apply for visa).

My friends give me some advices,he says if i want improve English most need full time to study that will made great progress , about my concern is if i full time in school to study ,i think that's better but i lose some times focus skills and tech news so a good mechanism is distinguishing study and research in everyday just as possible if i get chance. My friend give me an advice, he says that if I want to improve my EnglishI would need full time to study so I could have great progress. I think it is better, but my concern is, if I give full time for my study I might lose some of my time, and my focus on skills and tech news would be divided. So, a good way is to have time management for study and research everyday as much as possible, whenever I get chance.

Cheers.
