My victories and challenges of the last two weeks
Victories:
- Reading [aʊ] in appropriate way
Yay! Finally I can read it like a native speaker (I hope so).
2. Learning some new baseball idioms
Even though I’m still not interested in sports, I like the idioms that I learnt.
3. Talking to people (not only from university) in English
It’s important to me. It seems to me I start overcoming a little barrier and it’s easier to me to practice language with others.
Challenges
- Sports
Idioms, vocabulary, and the main rules of some games — kill me now. Anyway, every time I get hold of myself and do my best to learn and understand them.
2. Getting up early
Yeah, it’s not about studying, but I couldn’t help writing it. My daily pain.
3. Retelling
Last week we had our first trial retelling and I’m not satisfied with my work. It turned out to be much more difficult than I expected.
