Hi there :D. I'm a high school student trying to learn some Japanese. If you speak good enough English and you're fluent in Japanese feel free to contact me because I just need someone to practice with. I'd love to return the favour and teach English, but unfortunately I can only speak English, for now at least ;)

    First off, the original text has quite a sum of grammatical errors, so if I were to change it, I would change it to " Many jobs are complicated, funny and life-affirming. Some are simultaneously abstract and cerebral. It makes our minds work hard to under stand the ambiguities, feelings, intellectual ideas, and scientific discoveries that we have made." And to answer the original question, no, you cant change it that way. why? Well, if you look at the third line of the text, it says "makes OUR minds work". By putting "our" in the sentence we are referring to ourselves as a group. Your mistake is that you used, "they", as in referring to another group. lol sorry for the extra info, got a bit carried away there :P

    Both sentences are correct, but you will most likely hear the second sentence more often. But if you were to use the first sentence it would sound better if you put it like this " We won't be supporting you any longer."

    Not really. The world is already overpopulated as it is, and to be honest, children are such a hassle, I mean for the first 3 to 4 years all they will do is cry and run around and then you'll have to deal with school and whatnot, not to mention, having a child is really expensive, just imagine the things you will have to pay for. Well, then again, I'm just a humble chicken, what do I know?

    It's and its have no difference in pronunciation whatsoever. However they do have different meanings. "It's" is mainly used for describing adjectives, for example, "It's really hot today". On the other hand, "its" is basically the plural for "it".

    Reading books can help. Try reading some novels to get a grip on how English works. Reading text books can only bring you so far if you don't get any real world practice. So keep on practicing friend ;)

    6/27 diary

    I went to Kamakura in Kanagawa with my boyfriend.
    According to the forecast, it would be raining, but it did not rain, so we were glad.
    First,we bought bus and train tickets so that we could get to Engaku Temple, the tickets were on a discount.
    We went to many temples by bus and train, Enoden.
    we also went to Ajisai Temple. we saw many colors like hydrangeas, blue, purple, and pink.
    In addition to that, we went to Turugaokahatiman Temple, and Hokoku Temple.
    We wrote on strips fancy papers for the Star festival in Turugaokahatiman Temple.
    Then, in Hokoku Temple, we had green tea and Japanese sweets and we saw many bamboo trees.
    We ate a lot of food in Kamakura, for example, we ate ice cream ,rice crackers,Japanese pickled vegetables, and sausages.
    ultimately, we bought Hato sables for our family and friends.

    It was so calm and fun in Kamakura.
    I want to go to Kamakura again in the future.

    I went to an aquarium yesterday.

    Yesterday, I went to an aquarium. This aquarium was in Tokyo.
    There were so many fishes and animals like penguins and seals. Out of all the animals, I liked the piraruku the most. The Piraruku is a big fish. I was impressed by it's size.
    I liked the aquarium. There are so many aquariums aroud my home. I want to go the other aquariums someday.
