Thank you for your encouragement. In fact, I don't think my English is that good. I can't speak English fluently, and I can write in English, but I often make grammar mistakes. So I still need to improve.

Cantonese is like a foreign language to me. I can't speak it, I can't understand it, but I listened to many Cantonese songs that were sung by some very famous Hong Kong singers.

That Beijing uncle will be my role model. I hope I can be as good as him in English. So when I travel overseas, communication won't be a problem.

I don't need to speak English in my daily life. In my city, all the people are Chinese and it is very rare to see an English speaker.

But I still want to learn English. I don't want to waste my spare time, I want to improve myself. Although learning a language is so difficult, it brings me a lot of joy and kind, friendly people.
