  1. Dear teacher!
    Could you tell me the way to keep a diary in English? I always have problems in using the tenses. For example in Vietnamese: " Hom nay minh tinh co gap lai anh ay tren duong di cong tac". In English I write " Today I happened upon him when I was going out for business"
    "TODAY" go with "SIMPLE PAST" is OK???
    Please explain it to me. Thanks a lot.

  15. Sorry everybody.

    I have just come back to HCMC from my hometown, so i could not answer or post new entries.

    I think writing diary is one of the good ways to improve your Eng. However, there are some unrevealed secret in our lives. However, you can let others read yours if is useful and necessary for others. There are a lot of diaries published. Therefore, i can correct yours about daily life, but you should send e-mals to me, and remember to send what you can share with others.

  16. haha. hehe.hihi...
    Yeah, you are always a careful man,Sir! And...maybe you can post hot entry about ur trip. And... have u got spcial food(dac san?)for me? hhihi

    @S.one:According to our teacher's comment, why did not u create a daily English blog to send to him. I think it is easier than send e mail to him everyday...
    Is it right,teacher?
