- Today I'm so excited to tell you that I am helping someone with my own language, my [mother language]*1... I mean I'm helping someone in the process of learning Portuguese and It is so nice!! We have been talking in some [applications]*2, sending audios recordings and correcting both each other during the time while we practice. He already has has already been to my country and he liked a lot, He got interested in Portuguese when he watched a music video from Mallu Magalhães, a great Brazilian singer
*1. In the US we would say "mother tongue" instead of "mother language." You could also say "native laguange."
*2. Although "applications" is technically correct, they are nearly always referred to simply as "apps."

I love my house, because this place is special for to me, I have been lived here since I was 14 years old, and now I'm 23 years old. So never I would never change it for nothing anything, but I know one day, I must tell it goodbye. Thanks for reading this. Thanks for helping.0 votedMay 31, 20180
Day 24 - And Old Passion
Now that these thirty days are coming to an end, it's time for me to sit down and to consider other projects that I'd like to undertake for the next month. And This idea makes me think of all those different activities that I've undertaken and dropped out but did not complete throughout my life. [There're]*1 many, [however]*2 one that I most regret the most having abandoned abandoning is chess. I wasn't good at it nor or even mediocre, but I certainly enjoyed my time as an amateur chess player. Unfortunately, this game is not popular in my country, and even though various studies support its impact on child development this sport hasn't been inserted in schools either as a [workshop] (class?) nor or as a pastime. In my case, for several years I had a game chess chess board *3 at home, somebody gave it to me but I never got to know the rules, consequently, the chessboard lied laid down in a corner of my room for several years. Later on, I met someone who taught me to move the pieces and above all inspired me to look into the history of chess' history. As a result, I not only learned quite a bit about it but also learned to love it. I remember that as this is strategy game, then and I began to apply that mindset to all the different aspect of my life because there had to be a logic for everything not only for a board game.
So, as you may have guessed, in the following thirty days I'd like to recover my passion for this game, but above all, I want to have again regain that perception of the world as a describable and predictable game, in which I can outwit anyone just with a little bit of strategy.*1. This is something you would commonly hear said but never seen written. It would always be written "there are," even if when said it sounds like "there're." :)
*2. I think most English speakers would use "but" instead of "however" even though either works.
*3. At least in America, we refer to the collective pieces necessary to play chess as "a chess board," or, at least, saying "I have a chess board at home" indicates to the reader that you have all the necessary pieces.
Good luck getting back into chess! It is a lovely game.

My diet
Hi everyone. It Today was cloudy with occasional rain. A and it will continue until tomorrow.
Today, I want to talk about my diet. I'm trying to cooking for myself. There isn't I do not have enough money to eat out because I can't work [part time].*1 I'm a graduate student and I have to do many experiments all day I spend all day doing experiments.
Cooking for myself spend takes a lot of time and is troublesome but it's more healthy healthier.
I should go on a diet for the summer, and I would like to continue it in the future.
Which do you like better, eating out or cooking for yourself?
Thank you for reading my notebook. Could you correct my sentence? Are there any other ways to say this? If you'd like, please teach me. Thanks.*1. You might leave this out. You say you cannot work part time, but then I wonder if you can work full time? I think you are trying to say you cannot work because you are too busy with school? If that is true, you can leave out "part time."
[NOTE: I like to eat out because it is easier. :) But it is very satisfying to make your own dinner!]0 votedMay 30, 20180Spring in Canada
During Spring in Canada, flowers bring colours to parks and gardens around the cities, which will remain full of beauty up to the end of Summer. Cherries, tulips, magnolia and even lavender. The Canadian Spring is very [perfumed]*1. A season that is especially beauty beautiful.*1. "Perfumed" works, but it is not a common way to use the word. You might say "The Canadian Spring is full of wonderful smells."
[NOTE: This is very well written!]
