My first notebook!

Hi, my name is Chris, I'm 20 years old, I've been studying English for many years now, and I believe that I'm at the intermediate level but I still want to improve my English and be very fluent in it. English is our second language here in the Philippines and I got to speak to my teachers before when I was a student, but I didn't really like speaking English to anyone because I never had an interest in learning this language.  At schools, we are required to speak English especially during class recitations, activities, and reports.  I remember I had this English subject teacher during high school that was really strict.  She would punish us by making us stand for 30 minutes (if there is more natural way to say this please tell me) if we fail to speak simple sentences in English.  I believe that she really has anger issues lol, but overall I think that she did a good job teaching us.  I mean we wouldn't try force ourselves to study English if it wasn't for her.  But anyway, right now I'm really interested in learning English.  As I said, I'm at the intermediate level and I think that I have so many things to learn about this language, but this time instead of studying the language I will try to learn it by speaking to native speakers via Skype.  I believe that I can express myself well in this language but there are still many words that confuse me.  There are some words that I can't use because I don't know how to apply it in a sentence.  Anyway, if anyone wants to help me and be language partners, I offer to teach you Tagalog or maybe you can just teach me for charity :D

School is full of enjoyment yet it gives you a headache\1

Unfortunately, there are advantages and disadvantages of being a student.  It's good when you go to school to learn, to acquire more knowledge about things, and are able to meet different people and meet new friends. But sometimes it really gives me a headache because there is lots of homework and projects to do.  Sometimes I lack the funds to pay for school, but despite that I still believe what my relatives told me.  Education is the only key that nobody can steal from me, it's just that you need to make sacrifices and have determination to taste the fruit of success.

I can't really speak in English.

I want to learn speak in English, but I cannot speak well because I'm lacking for words or ideas. My grammar is not good and I want to improve it. I'm experiencing a hard time communicating in English well. Can somebody help me improve my communication skills? I really don't know what to do.
