Daily Dairy 1 (2021-5-18)

Hi everyone!

Today, I have made a major decision that I firmly determined to write a daily diary frequently to practice my writing skills in English. I would also like to utilize this diary to keep my memory and unique feelings of every day. I have decided to write my diary here because I believe that this exchange learning platform can help me to become a better English writer and I would like to communicate with those people on this platform.

I am a student and I am on summer break now. In order to make my holiday more meaningful and memorable, I have participated in a four-week English and culture program organized by a Canadian university. I have joined this program via zoom on account of the virus outbreak. I have expected that I will improve my English and meet folks from different backgrounds.

To be honest, I was quite nervous since rarely I do speak English in daily life and then I was worried that I could not handle this course very well. However, today is the first day I meet my teacher and classmates. All of them are very nice. Most of the students in my class are from Janese and the rest students are from Hong Kong just like me. When the teacher asked questions in Zoom, none of us answered her because we were a little shy and did not immerse in the new environment. I hope I will be braver and more proactive in the next few days and do more cultural exchanges with my classmates.

That is all.
