2 years ago,i can't understand English.because i hate studying English and i thought i did't need it.BUT something happened when i worked at Japanese Style restaurant.i surved to 3 foreign customers, and then  one of them said  something in Englsih, but i couldn't understand what he said. and then he laughed at me and everyone laughed at me. i think they thought "i can't understand any English" yes thats right but i understood they teased me. they made me feel stupid and i thought "im gonna study English hard and im gonnna be able to say anything and im gonna say anything to asshole like them!!!" so i started to learn English.

after 3 month,i realized that its fun to laerning English. becasue "sound" is different.Japanese sounds and English sounds sooo different.Japanese sound has 1 sound but English sound has 3 or 4 sounds.oh my god thats really interesting. and i wanted to know about why someone who started learning English from 20 years old   and someone who started learning English from Baby are different." after 5 months,i realized that Baby can't understand any words so Baby understand  any "sounds" and "color""taste" etc.oh thats it !after i knew about it,i stopped to transelate to English from Japanese.i tried to understand "sounds""color"etc like baby.after i tried to study like baby my Englsih got better.

now,i try to speak,watching Tv,reading book,writing ,internet, Englsih Text book,DVD,saying by myself,even food , Everything are Englsih.i try to say Englsih words unless i work.

i think its not only Englsih, second language is like that.so if you decided   to start second language,you would know a lot of "New"and "fun".and i think you should be baby lol and you should say any words everday.thats practice.
