This year will be over soon. Looking back at 2016, I notice that I have had a lot of changes. I changed my job in April, and I am beginning to learn English from this month. I like drawing, but I still can’t draw well. This year I found an interesting book to help me learn easily, so I think now my drawing skills are better than last year. I hope next year I will have the confidence to show you my drawings.
