Wish You Were Here

似乎一直在學新單字, 但似乎也一直在忘單字,

還是只能結結巴巴, 講著簡單的句子(揰牆),

想好好做一本英文筆記, 試過用寫的、用打的, 都不持久,

常常不到5天, 就忘記放在哪裡, 哪天又想到, 就重來一本,

周而復始~又周而復始~又又周而復始~~~

There is no excuse for not having TOEIC test after a year later.

I shall definitely do it by the end of this year.

I choose 22nd, Nov and I can prepare it for five months then.

Scarla and Anita, do you want to join me? haha...^^

I think three or four people will be the proper number to hold a conversation class. We'll have more opportunities to speak. Even though, 2hrs are still not good enough. I wish we can get less people but more time after this term.

Today, we are talking about our ideal company and boss. My ideal company is to work with smart colleagues. They don't need to be very friendly. I mean if we are just colleague. Please don't pretend that we are good friends then. The most important thing is only to be fair and to focus on positive.

I am very lucky to have the greatest mentor in my current job. She is a generous person that willing to share her knowledge to everyone. She thinks a lot and does homework to analyze every situation or issue for her job. And she thanks for those opportunities that make her knows better. In the end, she really learned a lot.
The best thing is that she still can be very humble and do introspect herself all the time. She hardly ever criticizes people because she believes everyone has their own opinions and you can not think only by one side. She has a very great EQ. She do gets a higher evaluation in any way. And I would love to work with her forever and ever. better - I would love to work for her as a subordinate staff.

I should learn from Anita that not just answer questions. But to be more relaxing to chat with Philip.
To make a sentence, not only answer a vocabulary. Remember, short answer is very rude.

Today we are practicing functional conversation about receiving phone complaint. We should choose our words carefully as we are negative speakers. We often make an abrupt answer(short and quick answer) when we get nervous. It's very rude to foreigners. so, we should always add "please".
And we must avoid confrontation - stay away from you or your. always focus on the issue, not person. And always stretch your sentence. You can use modal verb to make polite sentences, especially past modal.
And then when we deal with phone complaint. We should defuse the situation. The basic tricks are escalate or defer.

I really love my English teacher's accent.

In our first two classes, we make a temperament sorter.
Which our teacher can know better to us and he can decide how to teach us.
We also can find out who our classmates are and to get along with them easier. 
And there is no one get the same type with me - 

I am going to take some notes after my weekly lesson.

we often make below errors -
1. tenses
2. collocations
3. s(s with the verb or the noun)

Just watched "Good Luck Chuck". Oh, nooooo content. T.T
To me, the actor is not a good-look guy. In the beginning, he looks like he just follows what his friend says that he is doing a right thing to help women finding true love. But truth is he just likes an animal which only wants to get f...(sorry)
And all the 笑點 are around the clumsy actress who did everything wrong and hurt herself. 
It's fun but nothing more. I do like Jessica Alba. She is cute and sexy. I just don't understand this movie.
And then again the actor drives me crazy when he does 白目行為, in order to keeps her around. 

昨天本來有免費的Good Luck Chuck可看,
不過因為種種原因, 最後沒有拿到票, 
於是乎, 我就自己看了The Nanny Diaries,
好看
