mercedo's Journal: On The 6th Of August

On the 6th of August, it was a calm day. My girlfriend came to see me on Saturday night and stayed in my house. She stayed here until 5 p.m. and we went to Oh'hori Park, main park in our city. The park was made in 1925 after West Lake in China.

On the way back to my room, I dropped by a bookstore. I bought Longman Dictionary. Now I have Oxford, Cambridge, Collins, Longman dictionaries. I will hold five main dictionaries if I bought Chambers next.

It is also a birthday of one of my closest friend. It was a calm day.

English has been for me a completely logical language, I don't have a particular feeling colonial people might have had towards their former ruler.

If you were an English, you keep on recommending
