Worries are changing to nothing, nothing is changing to worry
Before I came here, Vancouver, I thought that six months would be very short time to improve my English, so I just wanted to broaden my horizon in Vancouver. Actually, after coming here, I realized that six months are not short time to improve my English because I can feel now my English is more better than just two months ago. In Korea, I usually studied English especially focused on grammar, spelling , reading and so on. So I was not good at practical English skills like communication with foreigners. However, coming here, I tried to hard to say something even if it’s not correct on English grammar and after few months I found myself my English more get better.
I also realize that it’s so short time that I should say good bye to my new good friends. It’s the most big problem which I can’t imagine at all before coming here. I couldn’t expect I could make such a good friend in here during just less than 6 months. However, I made really great friend in ELI where many people came from different countries. In 8 weeks, I’ve learned English with new friends from 8 am to 4 pm from Mon to Fri. Since we are all have same purpose which is studying English, and also most of friends are in similar age with me, therefore, it took short time to get close with them. Also, here, Vancouver, is not our home country, so sometimes we get stuck, missed family and friends, had difficulty in dealing something which is not accustomed to us. As we all are in same situation, we could understand each other easily, so it makes our friendship more strengthen relatively short time. However, almost the time we say good bye to each other is coming in front of me. In my life, I have few times like this to say good bye to my precious people, so these days I’m very sad. I don’t know what am I going to do and how can I act to them. But, one thing that I can sure is that I should enjoy my left days in Vancouver with them not to regret in the future. So…. today also…. I will enjoy my day in here!
