Keep writing
Learning english is like doing exercise. You need to keep training every day to achieve your goals. For me, the main problem is that learning to write in english requires to have ideas to write about.
What can you do if you don't have something to write about, well...you can write about nothing. And that's what I'm doing now, writing about nothing with the only purpose of keep writing every day. Because, sometimes, to be fluent in a language also means be able to talk about nothing for a while.
Thanks for your patience and dedication

Предметы
Я отвечаю на предложение темы по англиский: "Какой был вашим любумым предметом в школе, и почему? Какой предмет вам меньше чего нравился, и почему?"
Я был фанатом языков всю свою жизню, но сказал бы, что мой любимый предмет в школе был историей. Мне надо использовать настоящее время, потому что у меня всё ещё страсть к обоим (языкам и истории). Когда я изучаю новый язык, у меня есть впечатление, что я открываю новый мир - да, я знаю, что это звучит стереотипическим, но это правда, по кайней мере, в моем случае. Думаю, что я люблю историю из-за такой-же причины: я люблю учиться о жизни людей из прошлого, о тем, как они думали и что они делали. Периоды Античности и Средневековя мне особенно нравились. Более того, у меня всегда были хорошими преподавательницами. Их характери были так приятными, как их уроки, для меня.
Однако, я совсем не мог терпеть математику и спорт - не могу решить, какой я ненавидел больше всего! Во-первых, у меня были часто плохими преподавателями в этих предметах... Может быть вы знаете это вид преподавателей математики, которые запишут решения проблемы так быстро, что вы не можете их понять... Они преподают математику, но представляют себе, что вы уже овладиваете их предметым! О спорте, ну, предполагаю, что мне было невесело обегать вокруг спортивной площадки в 8 часов утром, в тумане... По мою мнению, это было чем-то групым. Нормально, спорт преподаёт "споривные ценности", но в моём случае, я ничего не увидел, который заслужило название "ценность"!

Conversación: Estudiar
Un estudiante sienta, estudiando en la biblioteca. De golpe, se para y camina hacia un estante, para devolver un libro. Otro estudiante anda a él con mochila en hombro.
A2: ¡Oye! ¡Antonio, por aquí!
El primero estudiante se vuelve, con libro aún en mano.
A1: ¡Jake! ¿Qué haces? Creo que tienes que practicar fútbol ahora.
A2: Está nevando demasiado fuerte y tuvieron que cancelarla.
A1: ¡Que lastima! ¿Vas a estudiar ahora mismo?
A2: Sí, había empezado tomando la química, pero he cambiado a la ciencia de computadoras y ahora tengo que alcanzar a los demás.
A1: ¿Por qué sales de la química? Es una de las clases más interesantes.
A2: Sí, pero ... me quiero especializar en computadoras y código. No creo que la química me sea útil.
Mientras se hablan, salen de la sección de lingüísticas y pasean por la biblioteca hacia la sección de computadoras.
A2: ...con tal de que se derrita antes de mañana, deberíamos poder practicar.
A1: ¿Es verdad que reconstruya el estadio?
A2: No lo sé. Sí sé que se encontraba daño de agua en el sótano de ello.
A1: ¡Espero que esté listo para el partido en febrero!
Pasan por la recepción y van a la salida.
Dos oraciones con "ya que".
1. ¿Puedes bajar la luz ya que me deslumbra?
2. ¡Sal de aquí!, ya que está demasiado tarde para pedirme perdón.

January 4
It's just my complaint that the sirens of Spanish emergency vehicles such as ambulances and police cars are very noisy. It's a really different level, so they can’t compare to Japanese one. I always feel irritated by the sirens when I hear that, especially after I study. The sounds aren’t constant sometimes it’s too big.

La petite flamme de ma communauté
Il y a une petite bougie blanche sur la table basse dans mon salon. Cette bougie est allumée et donne une petite lueur chaude dans la pièce. Elle est dans un verre hexagonal et sur un plateau qui est aussi hexagonal (apparemment j'aime bien les héxagones !). J'ai acheté la bougie d'une boutique de mon quartier qui propose des objets pour décorer la maison : des bougies, des coussins, de petits tasses et assiettes, et bien sûr des serviettes à main avec des courtes phrases rigolos dessus. Cette boutique ne vend pas de choses essentielles à la vie, bien sûr, mais plutôt de beaux trucs qui plaisent à la main et à l'œil. La petite bougie blanche était un peu chère mais je l'ai achetée quand même et je l'aime parce qu'elle me rappelle cette boutique et mon quartier, et par conséquent ma communauté. La flamme de cette bougie me rappelle que, même si je dois rester chez moi en ce moment, je reste toujours connectée à ma communauté.

Svenska som andra språk
Hej! Det är min första texten i 2021, gott nytt år alla!
Jag ska börja sas-kursen nästa måndag. Jag känner mig inte redo för det. Jag har varit jättedålig med min svenska träning... jag var sjuk i tre veckor (med covid) och jag har helt sluttat att studera svenska när jag var sjuk... jag ville avsluta med Duolingo-appen före 2021 men jag inte har gjort det.... faktiskt har jag fortfarande fem lektioner för att göra! Jag sluttade att prata, att läsa, att skriva... situationen är dåligt! Jag ska försöka i den här veckan att gå tillbaka till mina studier.
På andra sidan snöar det och jag älskar snö. Men jag hatar det kalla vädret. Så är det svårt för mig precis nu lol.

쓰기 연습에 대해서
오늘은 몇개월 전에 수정을 구하려고 italki와 langcorrect에 올리던 글을 다시 봐보고 틀린 부분을 적어놓았다. 보통 친구들이랑 이런 저런 이야기를 할 때 틀린 것이 이 정도로 많지 않은데 문어로 써보기만 하면 실수 투성이다. 이럴 때일수록 절망에 빠지는 것이 쉬운데, 일이년 전에 비하면 내 실력이 얼마나 많이 좋아졌는지에 대해서 생각해보는 게 도움이 된다. 사람들이 실수로 통해서 배우는 거라서 ‘실수를 더 많이 할수록 배우는 것도 많아진다’는 사고방식도 나쁘지 않다. 물론 실수를 하기가 쉬울 수가 없지만 긍정적으로 생각을 가지는 게 중요하다.

Being alone
I enjoy being alone. It scares me how much I love it. I think I could spend months without seeing someone and I would be fine. I'm not the kind of person who misses people. I suck, I know. Sometimes I think that may be because I don't value them enough or I don't love them enough.
When I'm alone, I can enjoy things that I can't enjoy with other people. I don't feel fully free unless I am alone. That's because when I'm with someone, I feel like I'm not being myself, but rather the idea that person has of me. In other words, I feel limited by other people's expectations. That's why I feel like the way I am now, is the way I'll be forever because everyone expects so and for some reason I'm afraid to do otherwise.

일본어 공부
일본어 공부를 2018년에 처음으로 시작했지만 꾸준히 한 지 참 오래됐다. 작년에는 아마 1번 밖에 안 한 것 같다. 하지만 올해는 포기하지 않고 이틀에 한번이라도 하려고 한다. 한국어 능력이 늘리는 게 최종 목표라서 매일매일 열심히 공부를 하고 있는데 또 지금까지 배워온 일본어를 생각해보면 작년에 일주일에 1시간이라도 공부를 했었으면 지금은 얼마나 잘 할 수 었었을 텐데.. 아쉬워서 올해는 새로운 걸 별로 안 배워도 기전에 배웠던 걸 다 복습하고 유지하는 게 목표로 삼는다.
일단은 지금 2018~2019년에 만든 안키 카드를 복습하고, '일본어 뱅크 다이스키 2'라는 책으로 공부를 하고 있다.

Book review: Spark joy:the life-changing magic of tidying up
I read the book "The life-changing magic of tidying up" by Marie Kondo after watching Netflix episode "Tidying up with Marie Kondo". In this book, marie share many tips and mindset about tidying up, which is not detailed in Netflix. As Marie said, there are two necessary skill to keep your house in order: the ability to keep what sparks joy and the ability to arrange the thing you choose. From what I learned in this book, tidying up is like keeping the most important items with you, but not like discarding things you don't want. I followed the tips in the book to tidy my working desk. It turns out that my desk not only become neater but also I become more focus when I work. Just like book's title said, tidying living environments can surely change one's life. The book teach so many thing about tidying whereas Netflix video teach little but with more real tidying cases. So, I really recommend this book to everyone.

I finally received cat food. I thought about what cat food I should buy when I was in the supermarket. Maybe it was still tuna like the last time I bought it. At the time, a wonderful scene showed up in front of me: a whole shelf of cat food. I bought one pack excitedly, and went straight home to feed the cats. The two cats immediately eat out the whole food. Afterwards, I heard someone knocking on the door; My express arrived-the cat food l bought from Jingdong. I sighed-there is either a lack of cat food or too much cat food. However, there is enough cat food; The cats have food to eat. Yesterday, my neighbor returned. When I slept, she quietly opened my door and let the cats come back to her room. I wasn’t aware of this situation then, so I was nervous when I got up this morning and didn’t find the cats. Did I forget to shut the door when the cats ran away? I finally learned that my neighbor had already returned and it was earlier than I expected.

Grafitti - a Crime or Street Art?
In my opinion, graffiti is a street art that can express themselves. I respect the talented people in this art. An ordinary layman would easily make some mistakes. I think that graffiti give colors the gray and smog-filled big city and small towns. However paintings should only refer to the permitted devices and be suitable for the entire environment. A street art also cannot be such as historical monuments, churches or museums. In such a case, graffiti is an act of vandalism.
I always admire paintings in buildings or blocks which have some a message and which can be interpret in their own way. However, I do not like grafitti, which are meaningless and ugly, consisting only of profanity or inscriptions. Grafitti should be removed and reported. Unfortunately, I still see buildings disfigured by vandals. I will never understand that the official ignore such problems.

There is a program about Chinese learning on YouTube. Two girls in the show talk about various topics. They talked about the Chinese aesthetic standard last time. The Chinese aesthetic standard is very strict and involves every aspect. The two girls talked about these standards from several aspects. They first talked about skin color and the Chinese think that the whiter the skin, the more beautiful the women are. If your skin is white, your defects are not important. The other aspect is the face shape. The smaller the face, the better. It is better to have a sharp chin. The Chinese people call it awl face. The cheekbones shouldn't be too high. Chinese people think that women who have high cheekbones will be harmful to their husbands. In addition, women’s mouths should not be too big because they think that women with big mouths will eat their family poorly and can’t gather money. There are also standards for women’s eyes, the big their eyes, the better. Many Chinese women want to have double-fold eyelids (including my former colleague). Girls like to stick double eyelid stickers in earlier times. Now they directly do double eyelid surgery. The third aspect is women’s figures. Those two girls said they are not satisfied with their figures.

Happy New Year
From today, I have classes so my New Year Holidays are over. I've felt the holidays were too short. This is because I had activities with my friends and had assignments. Some of the professors gave me homework whose due date was about the end of last year. Therefore, I had to hand in them even during my holidays. I couldn't be relaxed when I had homework that its deadline was soon. These are bad New Years' presents for students.

我的邻居回家了
昨天我终于买到了猫粮。我在超市里，想着想着，我该给猫吃什么？也许跟上次一样的金枪鱼吧。那时，在我面前出现了一个在我眼里特别美妙的景象：一架子的猫粮！我兴奋地买了一包，直接回家了喂猫。两只猫像闪电一样就吃光了所有我给它们的猫粮。稍后，从入口我听见“咚咚”敲门的声音，我的快递就到了，就是我从京东买的猫粮！我叹了个口气，不是缺乏猫粮，就是有太多猫粮。不管怎样，猫的确有吃的，而我可以放心。
昨天晚上我的邻居回家了。我睡觉时，她悄悄地把我的房门打开一下，让两只猫回她的房间。我没听见她，所以今天早上起床时，我发现了屋里没有猫，让我有点慌张！昨晚我难道忘了关门而让猫逃跑呢？我终于意识到邻居已经回家了，比我想象中更早一些天。
我不知道为什么，不过今天早上我们家没有网络（老实说，我们家的网没那么可靠的，有时候很慢或者没有服务）。而且，根据我手机的套餐，我每月初都需要充值手机，不过从月初到今天我一直用着家里的网，所以我忘了充值手机。因此，早上我没有办法跟邻居交流。（更准确的说，我只能敲在她的门上，可是我不想打扰她。）
我希望现在一切都解决了，我可以关注学习，而不是喂猫。至少现在这两只可爱的猫有吃的了。

music I don’t like
Today, I will describe music I don’t like. Actually, I like it but it was not the right way it showed. It was when I was in my university, and I wanted to go to the library to study. Since it was exam weeks and every student needed to study intensively, there were no seats for me, therefore I needed to find somewhere else to study. I decided to go to a cafe near my school and hoped I could study well here. At first, everything went well. Unfortunately, the music blasted out from this shop, which interrupted me. To be honest, it is an easy listening song and has catchy tunes. But at that time, all could feel was annoyance as my exams were impending and everyone was studying. It seemed like I was the only one who didn’t hit my books, so I decided to leave.

Although my neighbor’s two cats are very lovely, they thoroughly messed up my life. 2 to 3am later that night, the vigorous cats ran around in my room, chasing each other.
At that time, I wanted to go to the bathroom. I didn’t want them to run out of the door to disturb my landlord. When cats sleep, I don’t want to wake them up. So this morning I got up late
until 10:30.
When I use my computer, the cats like sitting on my keyboard and not letting me study. When I eat breakfast which contains oatmeal and milk, the cats want to drink the milk. At noon, they want something to eat, but at the time I only have a pack of beef jerky left.
My net friends said that the salt in the beef jerky is not good for cats' health, but I have no choice because the cat's food has already run out. The cat food I bought in Jingdong is very similar to my neighbor's, but the cat's food hasn’t arrived yet.
According to the text message that Jingdong sent me, the cat food package was on its way from Zhengzhou to Beijing early this morning. I am wondering if the package will arrive before noon tomorrow.
