This year will be over soon. Looking back atĀ 2016, I notice that I have hadĀ a lot of changes. I changed my job inĀ April, and I am beginning to learn English from this month. I like drawing, but I still canā€™t draw well. This year I found an interesting book to helpĀ meĀ learn easily, so I think now my drawing skills areĀ better than last year. I hope next year I will have the confidence to show you my drawings.
