I try to make my post in this blog in English. I just started by 2 post earlier, but suddenly I realized it's not easy to write in English. I have to think, is the grammar right? What is this word in English?
Actually my mother always support me to always using English anywhere, anytime. My father too. Since i was in junior high school, He got me to take an English course.
One day, My mother had an idea of using English in short message (sms). I thought it was a good idea. Maybe I could try it. So I agreed and did the plan.
But in fact, it was really difficult. It took a very long time to write a message to my mother. There was once I want her to pick me up at ssc (bimbingan belajar), so i planned to write a message to her. I wanted to ask where would she pick me up. But to write a message, it took about 15 minutes. There were many word that I want to translate, but I don't know that in English. When I sent the sms, my mother phoned me (and talk in Indonesian) so the sms that I had thought for a long time was completely useless. Since that time, I have decided not to write sms in English.
Many people say, in this globalization era English is very important. But, I have my own reason to write this blog in English. I know that no one will read this blog and say "wow-this-is-so-cool" or something like that. Actually I want to take a scholarship in Japan. There are some requirement to passed. One of them is getting 550 or higher in TOEFL. So I think write in Engish is very good to practice my English.
Ok, that's all my post today, you know writing this short post is make me tired. Gramatical error is all mine. Thank you. C U in the next post
