Sorry but I couldn’t take post for the last two days because I has troubles with my smartphone 😞. But that doesn’t mean that I did nothing, instead it was more productive for my English (I should thinking about this fact 🤔).

Lectures

First of all I took care about complete immersion in the language. I was playing in the Dark Souls on English and listening speeches and lectures by TED. I recommend you to watch also following videos —I watched this TED Talk and thought you would find it interesting.

Sonaar Luthra: We need to track the world’s water like we track the weather

Jon Lowenstein: Family, hope and resilience on the migrant trail
https://go.ted.com/CPNX

Alejandro Durán: How I use art to tackle plastic pollution in our oceans
https://go.ted.com/6bAx

I watched this TED Talk and thought you would find it interesting.

Aaand —a very important theme for women and not just : the questions about your own body should not be ridiculed and asks supposed be opener and clearer.

Jen Gunter: Why can't we talk about periods?

Reading

At this days I began to read a comic “Saga of the Swamp Thing” by Alan Moor. I can’t say yet what is the matter of story, but I like it yet 😄. About 15 minutes during the every day I did it and never regretted, though many words is unknown for me.

Learn, learn and one more time —learn!

I pulled myself together and memorized 10 new words and 5 new phrases. Besides I found new free courses and I want to try to pass them. 20 minutes I repeated them before didn’t learned all about them —directly a word, its meaning and transcription and also context.

So long for tomorrow!
