I have studied abroad! I went to Thailand for ten months when I was in secondary school here in the USA. I am a native English speaker so I had to learn Thai from scratch. When you study abroad, learning about and adjusting to your new culture is quite difficult, but you are always rewarded with new friends, new memories, new stories to tell. You might even find a second place in the world to call your home.

 

If you are wondering whether or not to study abroad, DO IT! It will be a wonderful experience. Any money you need to spend to go abroad is 101% worth it. You can message me or reply if you want to ask any questions. I'd love to share anything you want to know.

I am Confused

 

Red is what is wrong Green is the correct version

 

I feel more and more confused everyday every day. The working environment is so strange.
One of my colleagues is asking for to quit and she will leave us soon.
But it is so helpless that the boss do is not willing to employ the new person to replace her. Before this girl is going to leave, another girl has left and there is no new person to replace her. And now, this situation happens again. And the boss just wants to share the work to us. It is already so busy for us usually and if more works still be shared to is still shared with us, I do not dare to image imagine how busy I will be.
I don't think it is a rational method for the boss to save labor like in this way.
It will put the entire every colleague in our office into a big big burden. For one guy in our office, he has is already so busy day and night even if no further works had are added to him , just because he was so busy originally. And even he could not he could not even have one day off every week. And he has to work everyday every day. He has already worked for 7 years. He will become so miserable if there are more burdens (on him).
I just think that if me I, too, have to work like that, I would rather to resign and find another job. I could not image imagine that I have to work day and night without any weekend, without any free time. Even if not, I always have nightmares. This job would make myself like a robot and have no time to do another thing anything else.
I don’t know whether my thought is thoughts are correct or not. Just so confused and so worried.

1. The latest time to arrive at work is 9 am. 2. In the park, people will play with the shuttlecock, kicking until 8 am. 3. This company's scale isn't as large as the other one/s. 4. They asked me the time / year of Uncle Ho's death. 5. They asked me the time that Uncle Ho died. (Like Ahmad said, "passed away" is more respectful than "died.")

Academically speaking, I don't know the correct gramatical reasoning, but I can try to explain it in basic terms. 

 

Fewer is a comparison word, and so is less. However, fewer is used when the object being compared or analyzed is plural, and less is used when the object is singular. Students are plural, so fewer makes more sense. However, water is one entity, so less is used in that case.

Red is wrong and Green is correct ^^ 

 

Dear, Monkey, I understand why you put your furry hands on your both both of your eyes. You're right and clever.

Sadness kills happiness and happiness kills sadness. You can never feel pure happiness but you can easily feel pure sadness. There's always something stands standing between you and complete happiness. I got a new job. Awesome! My heart is still in Manchester :) I pity cats. Protection and a good meal, that is their idea of happiness. Protection and a good meal is their idea of happiness. OR Their idea of happiness is protection and a good meal.

I'll try to stop thinking now. I want to think later. Life is short and I'll have a plenty of time and long moments of creepy silence after my death. Well, happiness is a choice, in the end. Lose yourself and don't try to find it. Enjoy the feeling of being lost. Hmmm....... I think I'm flying again. Time to land on earth.

Have a nice day!

 

(Your entry is so interesting! Good job.)

There are a lot of different ways to study English. Because of the internet, you have so many options! Which part of the language is hard for you? If reading is hard for you, try to find books in English for children, because they will be easy for you to understand. If it is hard to pronounce English words, don't worry! If you like music, you can listen to your favorite English songs and try to sing like the singer. Ask a person who speaks English as their native language to please speak slowly with you so you can listen to the words. Then, they can help you so you sound more and more like them. Good luck :)

It is better to say "you can type 160 characters" because "characters" will include any symbols on the keyboard like % or # or @, for example. Saying "letters" only includes the alphabet and not the symbols.

I am an American, so I'm sorry, I don't know exactly where you sound like you are from. However, I can tell that Accent #1 and Accent #2 have a different "attitude" to them. Accent #1 sounds more formal, with sharper sounds and rounded vowels. Accent #2 sounds more relaxed and a little bit more natural, and also lazy. I like Accent #2 better, from an American perspective.
