Music week

This week was the 1st week after holidays. Nothing much happened except that there was a lot of homework. Quite an amount of teachers were absent on certain days. On Friday was Jacq's birthday, someone I really admire. Her voice is really good and she doesn't have any problems in her singing. Her sense of music and the way she look at music is really very good and I love her very much. Her birthday gift was really interesting and I haven't had the time to prepare it. Our show on Saturday wasn't too good. Some of us weren't please by our performances and some were living in their own sweet world, not noticing their mistakes and slacked like no ones business. At least maybe we could use this performance to let us realize that we aint that good and to let us wake up from our worlds to buck up and continue improving. I love the people in choir. Their voices are just so unique and beautiful. I have this friend that made me suddenly feel like improving my English. The way he speaks made me feel that I'm a typical Malaysian and can't speak good English like what the describe as the ' China Apek' . I don't wish to fall in that category but what can I do? I really need to start thinking harder on what I should do to improve my English. Maybe I should read more...but books just doesn't attract me....What should I do... I really need to improve my English... I don't want to be left out in the society that speaks proper English and I hope I'm determined to achieve me goal.

  1. Well, reading is the number one requisite I would say because you can bring a book or a kindle or iPad with you everywhere. Maybe you have not found a 'you' book yet - you know, a book that touched you so much that you'll pick up reading. What type of stories do you like? Maybe I can recommend some books and you can try them out.
    On the other hand, you can try watching movies in English(haha. What other language right?). You can also try some online language learning sites.
    Lastly, speak more English with people who speak proper English. Lol. Now I sound like a snob.;)
