English Songs Everyday

Listen English songs is a common way to advance listening ability. Recently, I become to listen English songs every day, and found that it really can strength my listening ability. I am weak in listening test, but after listening English songs, I almost can understand some of the lyric now!

Listening English songs not only build up my capability of listening, but also oral expression and writing. The lyrics are elegant and practical so that I can memorize some sentences and use them in the life.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Today is my birthday! I was quite happy but a little bit sad. I got many whishes and gifts from my friends, families, and so on. They are so sweet and touched my mind. And now, I’m 21 years old. 21!!! It seems that I’m old. Ha ha. I’m not the teenager anymore, so I have to be more steady and resolute. I need to be responsible to myself because I am grown. Oops! I must to make wishes. First, I hope all the people who I met could be healthy. Second, it might be a very old wish. I hope my English could be better and better. And the final one is the secret. :) Happy birthday to myself and thanks all of everybody’s wishes. I’m really happy.

TOEIC Test

After graduating from senior high school, I still decided to go to cram school to advance my English ability. For reaching the standard of graduation and the insurance of finding a job, I make my mind to take the new TOEIC test. This kind of test has 200 questions, unexpectedly; the part of listening test has 100 questions! I only have two hours to finish all of them. The most important thing is one part of reading comprehension have lots of long long articles! As a result, I have to distribute the time effective. If there are three questions included in an article, I should answer them in three minutes or less than three minutes is much better. It seems to race against time. What’s more, for taking this test, my listening ability and patience are better than before. Now, I sign up to attend the TOEIC test on May 23, 2010. I hope I can get good grades.

Introduce Myself Briefly

My name is Sally Liou, and I‘m major in English. Owing to my parents always reminds me the importance of English, I cultivate my English ability by reading novels, magazines, news, or listening music in English. The dream I have that from past to now be to live in America and Europe, experience their cultures and native lives. To reach this dream, I usually urge myself to study English hard. Since I entered the college, I found that English oral ability is the most principle. However, it also is my biggest problem in studying English. As a result, I try my best to practice English dialogue with my classmate and make a tape which always talk about our school lives or homework. To tell the truth, taping is a good way to practice speaking because we usually don’t dare to speak in English. Now, I still spend some time to chat with my friend in English, and I hope it can make me speak English more fluently.

Shilin Tempura

Now, I want to recommend you are a delicious food that is tempura. I believe that all of you have eaten many kinds of tempura in several places. I know that tempura tasted good. However, if you miss this one I recommend you today, I certainly believe that you will be regretful all your lives. And, the tempura is come from a small store where is placed near the Shilin night market. This store’s shop sign seems a little antique because this store has served here for more than 20 years. Rome was not built in a day. Similarly, good reputation was not built in a day, too. During this period, this store’s tempura has attracted numerous people to be their loyal customers. Some customers would come back from other countries just because they want to taste this unforgettable flavor. This store’s tempura is too delicious for customers to accept another store’s. The weather is freezing now. Don’t you want to have a chewy tempura and have a steamed hot soup? Don’t you want to know why Shilin people’s stomachs are captured by this common-looked tempura? Just come here, and you will find that this store’s tempura is not simple as you image.

Bad Cooperative Experience

I have a course in Research in Education. I have many works to do such as annotated bibliography, literature review report, research proposal and presentation. This class is extremely difficult for us. Actually, when our group did this homework, there is something making us feel unfavorable. One of our groups is senior. At first, she showed us that she was really wanted to join us. However, she usually skipped this class so that she didn’t now how to do the homework. The other member had taught her again and again, but she never did the homework her part correctly.
One time, she not only delayed her work, but also handed me the paper in Chinese!

That’ amazing! I called her and she responded me that no one told her she should do this work in English. That's wildly exaggerated.

Even though it’s a little bit unreasonable, I didn’t cooperate with her anymore. This let me feel more relax now.

Sweet Little Words For My Mood

Someone who is important to me stood me up last night. I ireful, I sorrowful, I surrender… Why our relationships turned into such unfavorable situation? Ok, this ending is what you choose. That’s all right. I’ll help you accomplish it if you want. Now, let me whisper something in your ears and says, “I wish I knew how to quit you.”
