English or another language learning process

            In the world, any country has their own language. When we start to learn another
language, almost people feel depress or confused because different languages have different
grammar, pronunciation and word form, For example Korean has two ways to speak. First is
talk with people who is older than you. Second is talk with friend. Although I'm Taiwanese,
everybody think we speak Chinese, when Taiwanese and Chinese speak Chinese is different.

            When I came to US to study English, anything is different between Chinese and English. When I spoke English, I have to think what I want to say, the grammar how to say is correct and pronunciation is correct. because of that I always feel nervous when I spoke English. I lived in the US now, I have to be used to it. Whatever I have to try and learn! One time, I have to prepare presentation, I felt very nervous because it's first time, I stand in front of all classmates alone. I need to speak English! Although topic was easy to prepare, I afraid my English was difficult to understand for other people. Especially, I was so nervous. But it's best way to practice and let my English better. When I prepared presentation, I practiced in my home too many time and listened the word's pronounce in the dictionary which I don't know.

            I will keep studying and get bachelor degree in the US. I believe that someday, my English more and more better. In the US, everywhere need to speak English,
restaurant, supermarket, and classes. It's good chance that improve my English. I can practice English in anywhere. I hope someday, I won't feel nervous when I speak English.

Final blog

             In the summer, I will go back Taiwan, and go to Japan, Hong Kong and Macao for sightseeing. I think the travel will bring a lot of different experience for me. I look forward it.

Because I never been to Japan before, I saw a lot of friend went to there in this year. When I saw the photos, I always when I can go to there. I'm thank for my parents, they support me go to Japan this summer. I think I will enjoy there for sure.

             

             What the important lesson in my life? I learned a lot of thing between people and people. I always think the most important thing is my family, the second is friend. So I always help my friends when they need me, I can cancel anything to accompany them. I think most people will do this thing too. But maybe it's something wrong, some people just think their own. More and more old, people will more and more profit-oriented. Maybe just because of profit-oriented is just what the society is. Some people won't use their wholehearted to make friend, just find someone can bring benefits for their future. I think that in the future, I have to be smooth and slick in order to adapt the society life. When we start work, it doesn't like student life have a little pure. We have to meet a lot of different kind of people. Although some people gave me this feeling, I believe everybody is very kind.

spring break

    oh!! this year spring break, I felt awesome!! I went to Seattle. Because of "Sleepless in Seattle"  I thought Seattle is a very romantic City. haha!! but maybe something changed. 
     In the downtown is kind of dangerous. A lot of wanderer, sat in the downtown center. Although the trip gave me some different felt between movie and reality, it brought new things for me. 
     First, I learned how to take bus in there. Because I didn't take bus in the

US before, it's first time. When I bought bus ticket, I didn't know I can use this ticket for after three hours. So when I took bus, I always paid money. In the first day, I spent $15 for bus.  Second day, we thought that bus ticket was too expensive, so we spent a lot of time to walk. In third day, we knew about that. 

     Second, the bus differentiate between tunnel bus and road bus, I didn't know that!!! In the third day, we went to University of Washington, it have to take tunnel bus, but we waited in the road, maybe 30 min. We felt confused, and then we asked people, we understood why the bus didn't come! 

     Third,We went to Safeco field tour. Although some histories, we couldn't understand, the field anything was new for me. Because I didn't went to see baseball game, and some place just player can enter. I was surprised, Safeco field boss is Japanese company, which is Nintedo.  So I could saw some Japanese in the field!

      











           Even though Seattle is little boring for me, I felt something was new for me and Seattle night view is awesome. so beautiful. But Seattle has a lot of museums, if someone like art, maybe will love this city.

Response #2

         The travel is most important part for the life, whatever who are you! Everyone have to learn experience from travel, it cannot from another where! In my country have a idiom "The frog in the well"  the mean is don't lock in your own life.  You have to earn new life, experience and acknowledge, don't just in the little corner.  I like travel, I can open my outlook,view and range.If I can, I wanna go to anywhere which something special and  characteristic. 

    Last year summer vacation, I went to Singapore. Although traveling abroad is very fascinating, it is something you have to learn and try. When I was watched Taiwanese drama, I really want to go to Singapore, so I told my family and started make plan. Singapore is a beautiful country, full of life. The weather is very hot, and there is no winter season in this country. The streets were always clean and comfortable, and there is no garbage in the street. I went to many famous places, such as Merlion, Sentosa Island and Universal Studios Singapore. 

        Although the travel was very exciting, I had many problems. We had a big language problem. This is very important when going to restaurants, hotels, and takes a bus or shuttle bus. We didn’t know how to ask, just used simple English, so we wasted a lot of time. We asked the service personnel how to take a bus to go to the Merlion. Because we didn't understand the station name, we walked on many roads and wasted a lot of time. On the second day of travel, we thought that we couldn't waste time because the time is like money. When we asked the service personnel again, I wrote many notes such as the station name, bus number and road name. So on the second day, we started a favorable and joyful journey. That moment changed my heart and encouraged me to make travel again.

I went to Singapore just three days, but I went to many famous places. During this travel, I learned a lot of things, such as how to plan can make fluent travel, and care everyone because this trip is not only me. I can’t only care myself. So this trip, I know how to care for others, standing in someone position, not only care about me. 

In the US, I want travel anywhere because anything is new for me!! When I go back, I will try my best to go to somewhere! Although the travel will have some problem, I will feel frustrated or depressed, if have the determination to overcome all obstacles to success.
