I've been lazy and sad after my winter vacation. I went to Egypt and Saudi, been documenting every expense I make along the way, suddenly everything got so real in life that I've stopped blogging for nearly 3 months. It's been so long since my last English digest blog. So I've decided to post a microblog every 10 phrases I accumulate to just make more of my blogs. ‘Cause getting something done is more important than perfect. This way I can build up momentum with consistancy.
In the later posts, I will try to make the digest simple and succinct. I've been lazyyyy to type here.
Here comes number 1 (hopefully this will last).
