    Disappointment in my English level

    Recently I had a conversation with native English speakers. It was awful :( I can write on italki because I have time to find words in a dictionary. I can reviewed and change sentences and can verify verb tenses and fix them. But when you speak, you have to do it immediately. You can't change the sentence after you say it. That's why speaking is more difficult than writing. I know that I need to increase my vocabulary and practice grammar more before I try to speak again.

     

    If you keep practicing it will get easier :)

    My fears

    There are many things that I scare me because I'm a person who is scared very easily. For example, I have a fear of heights. When I have to fly, it is a bad experience for me, so I prefer to travel by train or bus instead of by plane. I know planes are faster, but other types of transportation are more comfortable for me.

    I have also some common phobias, such as the fear of insects, I don't like spiders, cockroaches or ants. I don't care how small the insect is. I don't like them. Another one of my phobias is speaking in public. For example, yesterday I had to do an exposition in my class at the university, and it was horrible. Also, talking in an oral English test is very difficult for me, but I think that I can do it.

    On the other hand, I love the rain. I love seeing the rain from the window when I am at home, but if there is a storm I don't like it so much, because I'm afraid to listen a loud noise in the sky.

    I don't consider myself a fearful person. It is true that I'm afraid of some things, but I think they are the typical things that scared everyone, so I feel like it isn't a problem for me.

    In my view, the best way to get over my fears is to live through them more than once and have many bad experiences with them. Then I will not be afraid as before.

    In my work

    In my work I have to deal with the English language because I work at an international office of an important public institution here in Brazil. That is an environment where not knowing English is ridiculous.

    I am watching a video of Hardwell's dj set at UMF. I really like him.
    Watching Ultra music festival videos is really funny.
    There are so many kinds of performances and art. I really enjoy seeing people's faces while they are enjoying at ultra music festival
    I want to listen this video on my phone. I have to change it into an mp3 file on itunes by myself,
    but I have to shower and prepare to go to Ochang Park.
    When I was 18~19 years old, I was really liked to drink and hangout with my friends.
    These days I have clamed down and am too tired to meet new people, but I am still a pretty social person. I just enjoy seeing my close friends.
    I will enjoy my time at the park!@
    See you soon jieun!

    IELTS, Describe a park or a garden you visited

    Describe a park or a garden you visited
    What this park or garden is and where it is
    When you went there
    What can be seen or done there. And explain why you like the park or garden.


    The park I’d like to talk about is Xiangshan Park. It’s in the north of the Beijing, not far away from the urban area. I often go there with friends on the weekend. The Xiangshan Park is very huge, but the ticket price is only ten yuan. The Xiangshan Park is the royal palaces of ancient China, but it has been ruined by the Eight-Power allied Forces. You can see many relics here. There are many paths leading to the top of the mountain.

    Most of time we choose the left path where there is a beautiful lake. The lake isn’t very large, but it’s delicate, peaceful and quiet. Some people play the Guqin beside it. The Guqin, which is an ancient instrument, is very fitted for the peaceful scenery. We will enjoy this melodious rhythm for a period of time. Then we begin to climb the mountains. When we pass through an ancient temple relic and a palace relic, we will arrive at a reserved palace in the middle of the mountain. This palace has a tea house and a simple restaurant. We often have lunch here, and though they only serve a very limited selection of dishes, it’s tasty. Meanwhile we look around the palace which has great views overlooking a part of Beiijng and it plants, lots of flowers like peonies, and peach and pear trees. When we finish our lunch, we will drink cups of tea using the sweet mountain water. We all like it here, it's the best place to relax.

    My Aquarium

    I was set up an aquarium recently. I was bought a lot of equipment. First of all, I needed to put sand into the aquarium. It was made the base. Then I put in wood and a volcanic stone. These were decorated and the fish could hide inside. Next I poured in water and inserted water plants. I was put in some fishes and shrimps, and installed the CO2 set for the plants active photosynthesis. On last week a black fish was pregnant. It was had 4 little fishes. It was very amazing.

    article about future fashion style

    Have you ever thought about what people will be wearing in the next century? We usually look at the advancement of the society from a scientific and technological points of view, but what about the things of the everyday life, such as clothes?
    Firstly, I wonder which kinds of materials will be used for clothes. The most common fabrics used nowadays, such as wool, cotton and silk are natural materials and so, limited sources. Therefore, probably they will probably not be available anymore in the next century, and synthetic material, such as polymer, or new materials will be used to make clothes. It is funny to think that our clothes, such as jeans, T-shirts and jumpers could become just a memory of the past, and preserved in a fashion museum.
    Secondly, which kind of clothes will “survive” and still be worn in the next century? To answer this question, I think about the environmental changes in which the planet Earth is involved. We know that the temperature is increasing all over the world every year! Thus, what could happen in the next century is that people probably will not wear jackets, scarves, jumpers and other kinds of clothes to keep them warm! The clothes could be with bright and light colors as we are used to wearing in summer time and probably some kind of suits specifically designed to keep the body fresh will be worn.

    Working on my English

    Today has been a quiet day of work. My boss was a little bossy but not with me. I've been successful in resolving some informatics problems, some others are yet to be resolved. 

    The weather was nice, and I've subscribed to italki this evening because I would like to practice my very imperfect english and learn japanese.
    I began learning japanese when i was a little child for 1 or 2 years, but I've almost all forgotten almost all of it now.
    I have lived in Angers for 4 years now. It's a very sweet city.

    Alternative to language

    Six years ago, I went abroad to study English for the first time. Although I'd just stayed for a month during summer vacation, it was a big challenge to me, because I'd never been to any foreign countries and had never even gotten on a plane before. My destination was Vancouver in Canada. No transfer but I had to go there alone. I was way too excited and nervous at same time.

    My host family were nice people, but I sucked at listening and speaking in English. I could say what I wanted to simply but couldn't catch what they said almost. I hesitated to ask them to repeat themselves and just pretended to understand it.
    When I was in my room, disappointed with my skills, my ten-year-old host brother knocked the door.
    "Let's play chess!"
    Although I knew next to nothing about it, I kept him company after school since I wanted to get to know him through his favorite hobby.

    It was not easy for me to make friends in language school either. How did I do? I played tennis and soccer with them on weekends. At last, we were close and did things like going on a Rocky Mountains tour together.

    I realized that language is not the only tool to communicate with people. Skills such as games, sports and music can be a common language beyond the border.

     

    That's a great realization!
