For a period of time I kept starting and reponsing to discussions on mylot. In English, of course. However my mother tone is not English, so I need to think for a while and sometimes I even need to refre to a dictionary. As a result, I feel a litter tired of writing in English though I have a lot to share or say.
In order to make a balance, I put an article on my own site just now, in Chinese, my mother language. After finish it, I felt that it's much easier to use my mother languae to express my feelings and that's cool.
But, in another words, I felt that maybe just because I am not so familar with English. I need an improvement. OK. I will try my best till one day when I can use English as good as Chinese. I am looking forward it.

I do agree that participating in mylot help me to improve my English too, by reading and writing here. English is not my first language too, and my mother tongue is also Chinese. I can express myself better in Chinese, but I'm learning to express myself in English, in terms of thinking in English, but not translating from Chinese. The more I speak, the more I write, the better I'll be in English conversation. I'm hoping I can master my English one day.
All the best to you!! ^_^
