    writing practice

    A few months ago, I got a chance to buy coffees for my friends. I asked my friends "Which coffee do you prefer?" I was told that the total is three Americano coffees, and one cappuccino, and then I went to the coffee shop. I ordered our coffees. I said "three coffees and one cappucino please." The sever calculated my order I tried to pay my bill. Suddenly, my wife said to me "Something is wrong with your bill." So, I questioned to the clerk about my bill. The clerk answered to me "You want three shots coffee and one cappuccino, is it right?" Oh, my god. I still have a pronounce problem, but ,at that time, it was more terrible. After that whenever I order some food or beverage, I am stumbling.

    I've been studying Korean for around 10 months actively now too and it was hard for me to progress until I started sitting down at least once a week and studying the grammar, usually through a book. I try to to keep a binder full of Korean notes from those websites as well as a little note on my phone of assorted Korean vocab from around a year ago. If you're one of those people who learns better from rewriting things in your own words, then definitely take notes! I would forget everything I learned if I didn't write it down and try to make sense of it myself. The main book I learn from is called Basic Korean: A Grammar and Workbook by Andrew Byon. I'm on Unit 18 of 25 and I loooove it. As said in the title, it teaches you the main grammar points of Korean as well as a bit of vocab at the end of every chapter. In my opinion, it does a really good job explaining everything and in the 4 months I've been taking notes on it I can really tell my Korean has expanded a lot. Also don't stress as much about not learning as quickly as others. Everyone learns languages at a different speed and that's okay! Sorry for super long response and good luck~

     What I Did Today

    It was late when I woke up today, like almost every day during the holidays. I ate lunched and I started to work. We are building a terrace at home so I had to move several wheelbarrows full of earth dirt. I'm tired but it working makes you me feel good. Tonight I will work English tenses and I will try to practice my Macedonian language. It's difficult to practice several languages at the same time. 

    Greetings!

     

     

    Good job! Good luck with studying!

    You can say both, but saying someone should do something is slightly more formal than saying someone ought to!

     When you talk, try to make sure that your words are better than your silence

    Some people criticize me because I´m not as talkative as others. Sometimes I feel bad because I know I should try to be more spontaneous and sociable, but there are many people who talk just to talk. They open their mouths only to say stupid things. At least I always think about what I'm going to say in order to avoid making people waste their time listening to nonsenses.

    There was a girl in my class who used to talk all the time; sometimes she did not know what to say, and then she repeated exactly what other people said. She always tried to look intelligent and studious, but made classes longer because EVERY TIME someone said something she had to add another thing even if it was not important.

    I love to ask questions when I'm confused have a doubt or to talk speak when I know I can add something useful, but when I know my comments will not enrich the conversation I prefer to be quiet and let others talk. I think when you don´t have an enriching comment to say, you should shut up and let yourself learn something from others. This is the best time to learn. We have one mouth and two ears; it means we should hear more and talk only when it's necessary.

     

    Good job! I agree, there's a time to speak and there's a time to listen. If you have any questions about the corrections, I'll try to answer them~

     About Breaking Up

    Someone asked me why we broke up, we had been together for more than two years. I think it was due to many reasons like character, aims, hopes dreams, money, and so on.

    Yesterday, I chatted with my good friend and then found out her boyfriend was a good man in some aspects likes he will entertain her family more, and he takes into account her and other people's feelings. Then I sent a message that said I wanted to quit end our relationship to him my boyfriend impulsively. About ten minutes later, he replied and said that he agreed with me.

    Or Maybe he was long wanted to break up for a while, or maybe he felt he had no dignity as I described judged him ften. A while ago, someone asked me if I love him and if I will marry him in the future. I replied, "Sure, be sure, definitely." I couldn't imagine we would break up in such a short time.

    I regret now that I had sent the message to him, but I think it means that he doesn't love me because we could broke up so easily. Maybe he put his dignity ahead of me. Will he come back to me? I remember a year ago he said he would try to get back together if we broke up, but this time he agreed so easily.

    I think I had hurt him very deeply. Should I find him? Should I take the initiative to find him? Or should I send his stuff to him by post, meaning we're completely finished? Or should I get him back by requesting his help? It troubles me for day and night, as well as the recent work I have. I'm almost suffocating.

     

     Good job! I hope things go well for you two. If you have any questions, I'll try to answer them~

     Introducing Myself

    Hello, everyone. My name is Thuy, I'm from Vietnam. I'm 23 years olds. Now, I feel I am a looser because I don't have a good job and I don't know when I can follow my dreams. Sometimes, I lose my way and I think only until I speak English well, I can live my life. 
    I always try to study English and I have studied for a long time, but I realize my English is still not good. 
    Did you know that English is my biggest problem? If I can master it, I think I will have a bright future with a good job and a high salary. I graduated university last year with a major in Finance and Banking. When I was a student, I put in a lot of effort very much; I passed with CFA, a value of cerification in the financial field althought my English is very poor. I thought the job that I would get in the future would be easy thank to the CFA certification but everything in real life is not he same as what I thought because I can't speak English as well as I can write English. Until now, I still am a losser and I am sitting here trying to study english. I hope that I can achieve 6.5 Ielts in the September and make my dream come true. 

    Maybe I can. I hope to have anybody to fix my writing. I don't know to speak except the phrase "thank you."

     

     Good job! Tell me if you have any questions and good luck with the exam!
