English Assignment II

   Every human in this earth has their own strength and weak points, especially when we are talking about our English language abilities. In some case, there are people who have really good skills in speaking English, yet they have lack of skills in writing. Meanwhile, there are also people who have really good skills in writing, but they have lack of skills in speaking.

   Just like the others, I also have my strength and weak points. I feel quite confident in reading, because I can understand well the English language when I was reading, and it helps a lot to know more of the vocabulary. Also, I’m reasonably happy with my listening skills, but speaking is another story. Of the four skills, speaking remains my weak points. I have a hard time when speaking in English, because sometimes I get to speak without thinking about the grammar first, and become so careless. Therefore, I personally need to concentrate on my speaking skills. I think the best way to achieve this is by doing a lot of practice to speak in front of a mirror as confident as possible.  Having a conversation with a native speaker of English, or with an English lecturer, or with someone who is good on speaking English might be worth a try.  I’ve sensed slight of my speaking skills improvement recently. But still, improving my grammar is often an issue for me. I want to immerse myself in an English speaking environment and I need to socialize more with  English speakers.

A Very Best Friend of Mine

ENGLISH ESSAY

Ever since I was a little girl, I have a very close friend who does a lot of things with me. Her name is Fena. We first met when we were about 5 years old, in Sunday School (Church). I couldn’t remember the first thing we were talked about. Together we played fun games, we were joking around, running in the church, even the tutor was mad at us because we were too noisy. Turns out she lived in my neighborhood. I had never seen her in my neighborhood before, until I stop by to her house, after the Sunday School had finished. Her house was only around 100 meters away from my house. We have always been doing many things together ever since. Even thou we went to different school, we keep on hanging around in our neighborhood with the other friends. We spent so much time together. Some people said that we look like sisters when we walked together, because I’m a bit taller than her and she looks like my little sister. We have tons of things in commons. We both like the same movies or dramas, we like to eat meatballs, we like the same actor or actresses. For example, when I told her that I like actor Chris Evan, she also would told me that she like that actor too. But not every time we had the same opinions. Another similarity that we have is that we like to travelling, jogging, and we like the same colors. Also, we used to relax in the beach or in the pool, whenever we had free time on the weekend. She’s like my non biological sister. when I was scolded by my parents, because of hanging around until late at night, she would defend me in front of my parents, and vice versa. She is a very best friend of mine.
