Thanks for Pleased to meeting you, my new friend.
Today is the second day of my learning English. I think it is very interesting, because it can make helped me to meet a new friend. His name is Ryan, and he looks likes very handsome. He is a student and he is learning Chinese in China,. Sso he is my language partner. I hope we will always be a good partner.Thanks for Pleased to meeting you, Ryan.A note: Always put one space after punctuation (ex: after a period at the end of a sentence, or after a comma).
Two options for your last sentence: In english something like that could either be phrased "Pleased to meet you" (i.e. you are happy that you met this person), or simply "I am glad to have met you/I'm glad I met you/thankful that I met you/thankful to have met you". Many options, but all mean more or less the same thing.
Good job, especially for day two learning as difficult a language as English. =D0 votedMay 19, 20171- 1) All of your examples are correct in everyday speech, but the first two are more grammatically correct. 2)Those work well! I also like, "Is it too late to add/remove/change X?" 3) "My phone is an Apple" or "My phone is from Apple" "My shirt is (a) Ralph Lauren" "My shirt is from Ralph Lauren "I bought that cookie from that brand you like" "I bought a computer from another brand. It isn't from apple." All of these work, but it is more common to say "my phone is an Apple" or "My shirt is Ralph Lauren". "I bought a computer from another brand. It isn't an Apple" would be most correct. Hope this helps! =)0 votedMay 3, 20170
((Great writing! A few small edits. Main thing to be wary of is run-on sentences (like the first sentence), which can be tricky. Hope this helps!))
I am so happy today!
In the morning, I had photography classes. I like and appreciate my photography teacher even though his class is so boring that it makes me sleepy. After my classes, I enjoyed a bowl of delicious cold noodles with my friend. and in the afternoon, my aunt came to the campus of my university and sent gave the my book back to me, which was lost in her home because of my carelessness. I thanked my aunt a lot because all she did couldn't warm me more in the hot summer. And Then, I spent the rest of the afternoon reading some books related to my major and learning English. Later, it was dusk time, in the evening I had yoga class with my roommate. When I finished my studying after my yoga class and went back to my dorm, it was the end of the night. I saw the stars sparkling in the dark sky, heard the noise of the passed airplanes passing overhead, and smelled the fragrance of the blooming roses; all of those this made me happy.
Sometimes, having a good mood is so easy: even writing such a childish diary to record my life also gave me lots of pleasure.0 votedMay 2, 20171((Good work here! A few minor edits from me. Hope these help! ))
As is known to all many people know(1), Albert Einstein once said, that ”I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious,” which emphasizes that curiosity is the key factor of in achieving success.
Commenting on one of the Albert Einstein’s remarks
In my opinion, it is curiosity that ignites the passion which motivates many to initially to explore, everything you want to reach success.
Examples are not far to seek difficult to find, and the typical one is Edison. Edison was interested in everything since his childhood. , while When he could not understand something, he always wanted to figure them it out. Once, when he saw a wild honeycomb beside the garden fence, which it made him feel so strange (curious?) that he used a stick to fiddle with it to see what happened. He didn’t give up, even after being sting up stung by wild bees - not until he saw the structure of the honeycomb clearly.
As we can see above, curiosity is of great significance which and plays a vital role in the process of making great achievements. Without intense curiosity, one cannot persist for long to keep going either in study or career. Only when we maintain curiosity keep it from now on, can we stick adhere to our goals and arouse our potentials to achieve success like a talent.(1) I recommend this phrasing, as not necessarily everyone knows what Einstein has said. I actually never heard this quote! =P

The Days When I Cannot Swim
I've been swimming for more than a decade and have been doing it so, rain or shine, without a stop stopping. It's my favorite hobby and the sole activity that gives me the strength for any given day. Not long ago, I started to feel pain on in both of my knees. At first, I turned a blind eye to it, hoping that this painful feeling will would fade away as time goes went by. However, much to my dismay, the pain didn't disappear but increased its intensity. It was not until that I felt pain from in both knees while walking than I decided to face the music and go see a doctor. ((Excellent writing here! Note that the knee story takes place in the past, so I made some verb tense corrections. Also, knee pain is usually IN the knee, unless it's literally a cut or scrape on the outside skin.))
After some treatments, the doctor told me that I had to rest for at least a week or so; otherwise, the injuries may get even more serious. This came as a blow out of the blue to me because for the past 10 years, I've never stopped swimming for more than two to three days. I really have a hard time just sitting there resting. Now, I can finally understand a bit more how terrible it will can be for those who have even more serious problems which may bring about involve their disabilities in movements of all kinds. I guess I should be thankful that I, at least, have big chances to still have a great chance to recover from this temporarily miserable state. ((Minor phrasing edits here. I changed 'will' to 'can' because many people presently might have disabilities, as well as in the future.))0 votedMay 2, 20171((Great work here! Beware spacing between words and after periods at the end of a sentence (one space). Hope this helps! ))

I can't fall asleep.
This summer I'm going to change a residence country ((alternately, 'change to a different residence country)) and my work. Moreover, I'll lose a closed to me person close to me and it's worries me very much.
We have been together for more that 5 years and we used to swear and break up for many times often, but we had come always come/gotten together again.
Our conflicts are on about nothing. She allows herself to insult me when she is bad-tempered angry and when she is okay she doesn't. Truthfully, I said I can't live this way any longer.
I'm a 25 years old, and I think it's time to think about family life, but I'm afraid of making a mistake and choosing the wrong person.
When we are I am not swearing with at her I want to be with her and I thinking about something a serious future together. It seems to me that my brain and heart are disagreed.
I know I have pity feelings of pity towards her as she is ill but I realize that this feeling isn't well healthy.
I'm at a loss to tell myself what to do next.((Good writing here - just a few corrections from me. Sorry you're going through this. :( I hope it gets better soon.))
0 votedMay 2, 20171- My bf is Francophone with English as a second language, and what he said has helped him the most is mainly watching television and reading. Television will quickly show you not only current vocabulary and turns of phrase, but also pronunciation (which is VERY WEIRD in English!). I highly recommend British TV as well as it's a whole other style of speech in English. This helped me to learn French in the same way, so it's very effective! Sort of an at-home immersion for whatever language you like.
And of course, asking questions here on iTalki. =)0 votedMay 2, 20170 ((Hello! Good job here - I have some corrections and suggestions to offer. I hope it helps! Feel free to ask for clarifications (character limit is difficult))
Recentrly, Wwhen I try to write a daily notebook entry down here, I don't have any ideas to write since i I can't come up with something to write down in notebook enries entries. However, I always get some ideas to write here when I least expect, for example while taking a walk, enjoying the music and working out. That's how, I also did come came up with an idea today. Well, I make it a rule to hang out my futon outside in the sun when it's fine nice weather, like sunny or partly clowd cloudy. I hear from on the internet ((alternate option: "I hear from people on the internet")) that it's such a good thing to do it every day. Oh yeah, when I was a child, also I also usually heard it from my mom so many times that I feel it noisy((Not sure we have a phrase in English that means exactly this... perhaps "I heard it so many times it was like background noise" or "it was like white noise")). But when it would be bad weather like heavy rain or so such thick clowds clouds that it can might rain soon, I shouldn not do dry a futon outside, or I might forget doing it ((you mean forget the futon outside, yes?)). So, it should would be difficult for me to hang out a futon or some loundry laundry outside every day, but I have definitely been trying to do it difinately when it's fine nice outside. You know, this doing it this makes the futon so clean that without bacteria at all lol it's completely free of bacteria.
