My English Language Learning Journey

I was born in a Mandarin speaking family where usage of English is hardly around. I learn how to speak and write English during the school periods but i could not make use of them at home. The only time when I get to use them was with my friends because they are English-spoken people, apart from that I practice them by reading books.

I recall thinking that I am actually pretty good in English but I actually failed to understand them fully. There are lots of things that I still need to improve like Grammar, Vocabulary ,usage of past tenses etc. I thought that English was so simple that I can just practice by reading essays and stories then go for exams. But my result confirms that I did not fully understand English and I failed my O's English. I was panic because English is very important for my future studies. In order to get in certain courses, passing English is a necessity.

Thankfully, I got accepted into the Polytechnic and course that I wanted but my worries did not subsides. I am afraid that I could not get into the University that I wanted but I did not give up, during the time in Polytechnic, I get to know people who has the same situation as me and get to know how they overcome their fear and that leads me to try very hard in scoring well for my English during Polytechnic and eventually I managed to pass it.

I did well for my Polytechnic and got into the University that I wanted but English learning never ends, I took a qualifying English test before admission and although I did not fully passed it, in exchange I get to attend an English class which it can help me improve my English even further. I am hoping to learn as much as possible.

About Me

My name is Junsheng, i am 23 years old this year. If i looked back now i could see how much i have changed. From Primary school being a naughty boy who always did not do well for his exams and hid his report book from his parents to Secondary school being a marginal result student but still wants to have fun with his friend instead of studying. I recalled i actually worked my best for my O levels and managed to get into Nanyang Polytechnic doing Diploma of Multimedia & Infocomm Technology. I never would have thought that i will score well in polytechnic but i am glad i did. I am satisfied of my result but i still continue to work harder to improve myself, and i graduated with diploma with merits. I applied for three universities and all three accepted me, but i need to reject two of them, so in the end i chose National University of Singapore doing Computer Engineering.

Enough of my "boring" milestones, what was my hobby? I wonder if i should consider this as a hobby but i love taking photos of the sky. I could even hold my camera for a very long time to video those beautiful thunder and lightning. I have a wish which is to see a real life tornado or supercell(super huge tornado) but of course i would not want them to hurt anybody just for me to see how magnificent they are. I also owned a private blog to write down those important day of my life. I am still a typical guy who plays computer games, watch lots of dramas/movies and love to do adventurous thing like hiking and night cycling.

Here's an important question.. am i single? Well.. the answer is ..sorry no, i am attached! =D
