I decided write a journal at least once a week, hopefully more than once. I gave my blog address to my English professor, Ms. Bonnie, to look at my blog and correct my English writing sentences. I have lived in America many years but I never feel comfortable enough to write long stories. I am glad I met Ms. Bonnie who is very experienced, willing to spend time to teach students, and caring.(she is also very good at understanding very little English speaking students, and very good at memorizing students' names) I am willing to put out my English writing skills to the world (by the way, non of my friends know that I have this blog) to learn English writing from her by posting my journal .
My original intention of this blog was to see my progress of oil painting that I started December of 2014. Then, I started to post about my ceramic making projects, and newly found hobby, sewing. I planned to paint 100 paintings by 2015, and I was at around 90th painting. Suddenly, I was effected by SO. Cal. Gas Co. gas leak in Porter Ranch area, I had to be relocated. I had been living in hotels for two months. Finally, I am back home.
Meanwhile, I enrolled English writing class at LAVC. I have one more subject to post in my blog which is my journal. I asked Ms. Bonnie to correct my grammar of writing English. If this goes well I will tell my friends to check my blog so that they also can learn. I am little embarrassed about whole thing but I will write my journal as many time as I can to improve my English writing.
I made Koren style Brittle.
It is easy to make and delicious.
I have to make sure not to eat too many. ☺
Your first entry looks pretty good. There are mistakes, but not many. The main thing is to write and take small steps towards learning more. In sentence one: "I decided write a journal . . ." you should put a "to" before "write" because you need the infinitive "to write." You decided something, and that something is "to write," a direct object noun. An infinitive can be a noun.
ReplyDeleteIn line 3, "I never feel" should be "I never felt" because the "have lived" (present perfect tense) affects the entire sentence. This is enough for today. Good job!!
Yes, of course, I totally understand. This is very good Ms. Bonnie. Thank you so much! See you at school.
