9/26

I did not have to go to school for four days because of national
holiday is called “Moon Festival.”


However, I still have to do part-time job on holiday.
Every classmates, even roommate, went back home and I was
alone in dorm.


I thought about whether I should quit the job or not.
But when I think of personal financial problem, I just desist
from quitting the job.

9/20 New glasses

I have worn the glasses for 10 years.
When I was 10, I was told by the doctor that I was myopic.
Now, I am near-sighted of 850 degree.

Recently, my old glasses were broke. I bought a new one last
Sunday and it costs me about NT3700.
I bargained with the glasses shop owner over the price because
it’s a big money for me.

9/21

I have three foreign teachers this semeter .

Elena is my second year writing teacher because I was failed last year.

Elena came from Russia. She is kind and always smiles.

She introduced her background and Russia culture.

She speaks English with so special pronunciation that I have to pay more attention to understand what she said.

I hope she can’t ask us to do much homework or I will fail again.

Introductory Level oral translation

The teacher asked us to read the article loudly for 15 minutes
everyday and we will get ahead with public speaking skills.
In English area, we may get the carrier for trading, teaching,
lecture writing, and translation.
I am more interested in translating.
It's a new challenge for me to speak English fluently on stage.
I think I have to use my time well and get more practice.

The TOEIC Test

I attended a course called “Applied English” today.

Teacher taught us eight keys to higher scores on the TOEIC Test.

And TOEIC Test is a standardized test designed to measure people’s English ability.

TOEIC Test is more functional and international than GEPT.

I concentrated on the keys what teacher emphasized again and again.

I hope I can pass and get more than 730 scores on the TOEIC Test before I graduate from university.

Busy day

Today is the first day of new semester. I had nine classes for Monday and I even had to do the part time job in 7-11 after school.
I felt tired and I almost fell asleep when I am on the way to office.
We stocked with a plenty of goods in our store and there are many consumers tonight.
I was so busy that I did not have time to eat dinner. When I took a short break finally, it almost 10:30 p.m.
It is tough for me to write a journal everyday because I usually come off duty at 11:00.


P.S. I am sorry that i didn't post my diary successfully yesterday because i "save" it not "post" it in blog. I noticed this problem today and post homework immediately.
