BC: Here is not in China – Jan 03, 2008
今天一大早就赶到学校然后由Nelisa带着去ICA (Immigration & Checkpoint Authority) 办理学生证,几乎等了两个小时才轮到,然后又等了几乎一个小时才轮到交钱,S$80手续费。正好回来赶上下午的课程,刚到一个新同学,来自印尼,也能说中文。形式上就是让学生自由讨论,说出自己的想法,然后句型变换,更多的是语法时态关系,这让我感觉特别沮丧,因为从来都没有去认真的学过语法,当然也知道这是软肋,还有词汇的贫乏更是难于启齿。
From now on, I will practice my English here, and if you can point out my any mistake that would be highly appreciated. Well, today’s lesson was almost focus on the grammar while you want to use the sentence to make some predictions. Such as ‘adverbs with will/won’t', modals like may and ‘is (not) likely to’. And we often talk about hypothetical situations using if. Normally, we use the past tense after if and this description doesn’t mean that happened in the past. In fact, I feel totally confuse about this grammar even I took the lesson and finish my homework. I don’t know when should I use the past tense while using the if for some hypothetical possibilities.
I’d helped one of classmate to copy some lesson’s files from the computer inside the classroom, such as the video, ppt, I think. And our teacher David finally found out what had happened, and he said that here is not in China, you may not allowed to download something from the server. That make me felt embarrassed even I went back to the dormitory.
David also printed some news from the internet like the BBC, Guardian Unlimited website. And asked about the prediction about the new president of the United States, well, I don’t know much about the candidates, only Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, and I can’t recall the name of Obama. In my opinion, I’d like to see Barack Obama to be the new president of USA just because I like the ’24′ television so much. Not only the new president of United States, but also the situation in Pakistan and Kenya, the delay of Nuclear weapon in North Korea, pollution in your country, and Britney Spears.
My trouble in studying in English is I don’t know how to improve the grammar and words.

你在新加坡留学吗?
那个地方环境很好,就是有点小。
我有一些朋友在那边。
写的挺好的嘛。。。单词不用多的,有几千够了。。。Bless~
@西岸 也不算是留学了,更像是进修一下的而已。这里很多学生来读书,管理和会计的多一点,不知你朋友是否还是学生?
@milo 谢谢你的夸奖和祝福,努力中…
你去ICA啦?等啊等啊~~那边就是等~~除非你早上7点半以前抵达那边~然后排队等8点开门~才能顺利办事~~~2个小时~正常~~~!
已经很不错了…
@Greanty 今天拿到Student Pass了,就两张卡片而已。是的,真的好慢,而且那个number是跳着来排序的,你永远不知道下一个是谁,赞一个啊,哈
@虫儿 I want to say thanks a lot.
