It's been a good year with all my classmates. I've learned a lot of new grammar, vocabulary, expressions, etc. so I'm able to use then now. I've also improved my speaking skills and I think I'm better improvising than before. From now one I will try to go on an english trip.
To finish, I would really like to learn new languages next year, so, for being my last post, I would like to share one of my favourite groups at the moment and what's making me want to learn korean or japanese.
