About learning language - Chinese

Written By Victor Chen on Sunday, September 28, 2014 | 8:09 PM

Hello everybody,
Now i want to write something about my Chinese studying.
On my 2nd year at university (2011), i started to learn Chinese, at a Chinese learning center, but not for long, after 6 months study it, i gave up because it's so boring and also because of the raising of the studying fee.

Also on 2012, my next-door friend introduced to me, in my suprising, a Chinese Girl who studied Vietnamese as your major in China. (She was in Nanning at that moment). Time after time, we became very close to each other, she helped me with my Chinese and in exchange i helped her improve her Vietnamse. On September of 2012, she went to Vietnam, Da Nang City for her Vietnamese study, i was very happy at that time, because i thought, maybe we would have a chance to see each other once. We're still in touch after that. Until June of 2013, she decided she would travel to Cambodia for her summer vaction before returning to China. So that was the reason, she flew to Ho Chi Minh City, at the airport, we saw each other, for the first time, i was so stupid to also take my ex-girlfriend there too, we just could talk for a few minute before she checked in, and that also was the last time we met. So sad. Wish i could turn back the time.Since that time, i have also left my Chinese at the place where it should be.

After nearly 2 years nearly studying nothing else in Chinese, on March of 2014, i found a Chinese friend, she is from Anhui Province, she is my new encouragement for studying Chinese. At the first impression, i could say that she was my type, very suitable with me, our talk was very good and continuosly went very well. I remembered what we talked in our very first conversation, that was about food, about fruit, yes. ^^ I didn't know why but she left in me a very strong impression that didn't go away, even until now, haven't. At first, we just talked very few a week, but after that, we began to talk more and more. At this time, i hadn't thought about continuing to study Chinese yet.

On June, i decided that i need to study Chinese, i wanted to see her in real life. I had a strange feeling that i would like this girl very much. ^^

And from that time until now, i have been studying Chinese very seriously, i keep on talking with her, and now i could even talk with her in baryly Chinese, no need any English words. Feel so good at this moment.

Three days ago, i thought i had to be even more serious about this Chinese learning. So i decided i had to spend all time, studying Chinese. Everywhere i go, i think of it in Chinese, everythought that appears in my mind, it must be Chinese, everytime i listened to something, it will be automatically translated into Chinese, no matter what it is. At daylight time, when i have time, i listen to Chinese music, watch Chinese dramma. At nightfall, i study Chinese vocabulary (70 words/day).

I think i have made a great improvement, just in 3 days, i decide that this is a very good way to study Chinese, immerse yourself into Chinese language itself. Use your imagination, imagine that you are in China and use Chinese all the time. I think it will be a good method for studying any language. I'm very happy when i can write all these things here, on my blog.

I hope someday, when i read this again, it will be the day that i am fluent in Chinese.

Ah, my goal is after 1 months, i will be fluent in Chinese, now it is 09/28/2014. Hope to read it back on 10/28/2014 and know that my goal is fulfilled.

Bye everybody,
Have a very nice of your life,
See you later, all of my good friend (who will know about me)
Victor Chen
