Blog 2 The fulfilling week

During my 2nd month in Singapore, things seemed to go smoothly and I began to adapt to my new life here. Last week, we talked about telling tales which created more chances for me to speak in front of the audience. Although I was really nervous at the beginning, it was surprising that I was able to express myself more confidently days later. I really enjoyed discussing with my classmates and analyzing the details in the stories. Since that we formed a different group everyday, writing different kinds of stories also contributed to our better understanding of each other. What’s more, the most impressive thing for me was the story of the Titanic which aroused my curiousness about the whole event. So I also decided to watch the film again recently. In addition, learning how to write a narrative essay is so useful that I can talk about my fantastic experiences more freely.

However, last week, I encountered something difficult to solve when it came to the topic of grammar learning. Although I was familiar with adjective clauses, it was still a challenging task for me to figure out all the mistakes in the given sentences. I began to realize that learning grammar is not only about remembering the fixed sentence structures and the use of each word, but also to be equipped with the ability to use it correctly. So it seems that I still have a long way to go on learning grammar.

By and large, I learned a lot during last week and really had a good time with all my classmates. At last, I would like to say thank you to each of you because of your company. Let’s keep moving in the following week!
