Interpretation Course

In this semester, I take a Interpretation Course which make me anxious whenever I go to the classes. Today, I have to look at the computer screen to name numbers, some of them will be Chinese so I have to translate it into English. This irritate me very much because the way I name the Chinese numbers is totally different from English.
It costs me a lot of time to distinguished their differences. When it is time to test, I am too jittery that I almost forget what I had done at home. How upset I am! Also, this test contains the article which is about H1N1 and I have to interpret some of the sentences. Though I had read the article carefully before hand, I still get into big troubles. Maybe, I have to calm down so that I will have a clear brain to think.
Later, we practice some vocabularies about animals and plants and do shadowing practice at the same time. That is really difficult for me to catch up with the speaker. Some of the vocabularies are so familiar with each other that I just can not make the differences. After classes, I will check out all the vocabularies and memorize their pronunciations. Practice makes perfect.

a whole new beginning

Writing always bother me. Whenever I make up my mind to write journal on a regularly basis, I finally will give it up. Because I just did not know how to express my feeling exactly in English, sometimes, I will type Chinese instead. While writing in English, my brain almost in a mess. But since it is a whole new beginning, I hope I will update my blog regularly. It would be a good chance for me to practice writing
