Last week I had a job interview and I had to talk English at the end. I think my English is not that bad and it was no surprise at all that I should have spoken English but I suppose I messed it up. I started to splutter and my terrible grammar does not only broke my neck but both legs as well. Hach. It was embarrassing.
However, I decided to improve my English a little bit. Apparently it is not enough to watch movies and series like SATC in English, so I decided to read more English books. Not very ambitious literature but some nice books for women. I think there are more phrases and common speech that will be useful for daily life.
I have to admit it goes very well. I do not have to consult leo.org very often. I already learned some words I will never ever forget like muffin top for example. :-)
So my target for this year is to read 3 English books at least. Good for me that this one turned out to be a trilogy!
And this is the book I am reading right now.
It's official. Angela Clarke is in love -- with the most fabulous city in the world. Fleeing her cheating boyfriend and clutching little more than a crumpled bridesmaid dress, a pair of Louboutins and her passport, Angela jumps on a plane, destination - NYC. Holed up in a cute hotel room, Angela gets a New York makeover from her NBF Jenny and a whirlwind tour of the city that never sleeps. Before she knows it, Angela is dating two sexy guys. And, best of all, she gets to write about it in her new blog (Carrie Bradshaw eat your heart out). But it's one thing telling readers about your romantic dilemmas; it's another figuring them out for yourself! Angela has fallen head over heels for the big apple, but does she heart New York more than home?
