Hi, I'm Claire. Have been a long time not introduce myself in English. Haha.. I would like to say that I feel so great to find the board that everyone chats, talks, shares or asks things they want here. I never found it since i've used ptt for couple years. > <" I used to study in Cincinnati, Ohio and had been back to Taiwan for one more year. Feeling pity that seldom oppotunities to be able to speak English due to environment of Taiwan. Happy to be here to introduce a little bit about myself to everyone. I live in Taichung, and 24 years old which formal things need to be mentioned At last, nice to meet everyone here no matter what reason makes you here. For learning, improving or just like it, or others. Let's make ourselves better here. :) The End! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 175.182.41.151

----------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Claire again. Well, i dont know how to deal with the situation. Really feel sorry for bringing an arguement. Im appreciated for everyone who gave comments here. Indeed, I felt a little bit sad in the beginning cuz i didnt find the grammar errors I made until I just came here to see my article again. "What a suck grammar i used!" comes up to my mind. Sorry.. i think I was really tired at that day so that I didnt know what a stupid grammar I used. The really poor grammar makes me belly laugh Besides, I wanna say again that I thank who welcame me and who tried to correct my English. I wont say Im good cuz i stayed in America for a while. Continue learning and impoving English will be the thing for my all life. If I make any mistake for my grammar or something, plz dont hesitate to correct me, but no more arguement please. Feel so sorry for that >"< Be peaceful. ※ 編輯: iwbyaf 來自: 175.182.41.151 (11/05 23:43)
