Yet another typical holiday.
It has been a month since my last day in the college. Holidays never enough for me to do everything i want - hang out with friends, clean the house(ouch!), homeworks( ouch ouch!), and sleep! I didn't even have the time to feed my fishes in the aquarium.
Forsure..my english tongue had flew away with the holidays. It's kinda hard for me to practice english at home, mostly because of the different environment that i'm facing here. Thank god i still got this blog..this is the only way for me to force myself be with English
English is a broadly
spread language originating in England that is at this time the primary language of various countries. It is widely used as a second language and as an official language
in many other countries.But, have you ever wonder how diverse the language is? People in other countries really use their own way to communicate with the wor
ld, generally. Wanna see some examples?
