Online Class Notes (Jesse) [8]

Focus on nouns. How many? Which one? Do you need to put “s” or do you need “a” or “the”?

Sentences: you can’t continue the sentence if you don’t use a conjunction (and, but, so, because, when, if)

About love
When i was in college i started the first relationship with a girl who has a beautiful face, an average height and a slim shape and a long, straight, black hair. At that time, it’s very complex to understand what love was for me, i just liked a girl at the same as my other male classmates liked a girl. But it’s not real me, there was a big secret in my heart, and i had never told anyone and pretending a normal man is in love with a girl. I knew it’s a complete lie that i wasn’t really love her and perhaps i actually like boys, but i wasn’t sure it. So i broke up with the girl soon, i didn’t want to hurt her , even though she kept begging me not to leave her. And i got a long time to alter my attitude face love and life, i didn’t want to be a liar and dated with a girl either. I couldn’t rapidly accept i love boys, so i just chatted with boys who lived far away me because i couldn’t meet him easily. For the rest of the college time. I chose to be alone and not fall in love. Finally slowly i accepted the facts that i loved boys.
Fortunately, i am very grateful and happy that i have a boyfriend and he treats me kind and always takes care of me when i am in pain. We have been together since six years ago, and i am quite satisfied my current situation, even though i often feel unwell.
