My Feeling
Hi brother! How are you today? Are you alright ? I hope so.  I want to ask you a question: “have you ever felt so terrible or getting bad mood all the time and it makes you not comfortable to do anything. You think that every moment was terrible and useless? Yeah, I myself had ever faced this problem. How to resolve such this problem? I don’t know how to do and what’s better solution to go from this problem. 

Of course I should look for the solution and face it immediately. But it is not as easy as you think to get a better solution and to implement it into my problem. You know, I need motivation, really to support me. I feel no one wants to support me when I’m like in such this situation.

I feel everyone leaves me alone to get my solution by myself. Yeah maybe I have to do this by myself likes crazy boy going somewhere without any plan and target, like something useless no one will care about me who am I. Am I really that bad? I hope not.

What’s going on me? I have to be strong man. Yeah, that is true even if no one cares me, no one understands me who am I. I am sometimes really upset why do not my friends want to be my friends when I am in the hard situation? Am I perfectionist? Am I individualist? I don’t care about that. What I actually need now is helping hand. Sure that is all, my friends. 

I feel like a boring boy who did not know how to do, what should do and everything become very unhappy. I am like a man who lives in the forest which no one, alone, no car, fire, with a dozen wild animals who are ready to eat me whenever. 

Oh God, help me please!. I can’t stand with that condition around me. I swear guys. If I can choose the best thing that I will do is I am going to go away from the crowded activities in the middle city here. I am going to go to the strange mountain which no one hates me, no one cares to me, no one bothers me, no one will destroy my plan, my dream, my soul. 

I will meditate as much as I can over there on the top of mount. I will be closer to God to feel happiness, the real happiness, yeah, real Happiness.  Happiness can not be changed by money. Even though you have a lot of money you could not buy happiness.

I think that yeah, ‘Struggle’ is good word for me, I have to struggle to get the solution. Life is struggle, yes it is true. Struggle for them who wants to be useful man woman in front of human being. Life is not just for eating, drinking, flaying, playing, and no respectful to other. So, I have to do my best for other people. At least give the contribution for better life. If I just stand by myself at home, do not do which able to give beneficial to other, so I’m useless. So, It is important to look for something that can bring you to be beneficial boy to other. 

However, you have to realize that life always changes whether you realize it or not. So, the best thing I should do is that I have to care to other. Help other, share to other, and don’t only stand by or sit down in your room. Go out and look at the situation around you now. Look! What happen out there, so you can feel that you are maybe lucky between them. I should thank to God even if now I feel bad. Yeah always have positive thinking. I hope I can face all my situation today and hopefully will be getting good day again soon. Listen the Audio File

My Language Experiences

Hello ! It’s me again!

Today I’m going to be speaking about my experiences in learning languages.  First of all I would like to say that I have been learning English and Arabic for about Ten years. So, now, I consider that I feel more confident to speak English and traditional Arabic with native. Even if it could be possible that there are still many mistakes I make when I talk to native. However I still understand the point and also they do. 

Honestly, I used to have bad experience which I felt disappointed when I learn Arabic and English for the first time, because I learned using Grammar Translation Approach. I used to be bored during the lesson in the class. It’s because I had to focus on a list of Grammar rules over and over which I really hated it so much during my study. I had to learn by drill’s method and repetition. Even, I had to analyze the rules, texts, and do some tasks and answer many questions based on Textbooks. So, since I graduated from my senior high school still could not speak English and Arabic at all only a little mechanic sentences that I got from the Textbooks.

After graduated from my high school then I decided continuing my study to the university which I studied Arabic. For focusing my study, I have to decide one language to learn. So that’s why I came to the decision that the language I wanted to learn was Arabic. I really gave a big hope to my University for improving my Arabic skill. 

You know that what I want to be after studying Arabic is being Arabic teacher, guide or at a least I can communicate with native. So, I started learning Arabic again in there. After it had gone about fourth semester I begun feeling boring again because of the learning. I did not understand why I have to get such this problem. I thought that I was not comfortable studying Arabic anymore in the university. 

I frustrated for a long months thinking why have not I spoken Arabic yet until now, I felt that all of methods which my Arabic teachers taught to me did not work at all to make me be able to communicate with native. I also felt that all my efforts had not been paid off. I was so sad really deeply sad no motivation anymore.

So, one coincident happened into my life, I tried to get some tips or solution through the Internet. I believe that every problem must be solution there. So, guess what? Eventually I got fantastic site talking about languages learning. Look at this site: Davidmansaray.com or thepolyglotdream.com, or this Fluentin3months.com I tried looking at the topics on this site, after I read a lot about that topic finally my motivation somehow appeared again and I decided starting my learning. 

However, now I learn languages by myself not by taking a course anymore or study in the university, after a long time I stopped in my learning because of frustrated. One thing that makes me so inspired and motivated is how to enjoy your learning process. 

Yeah, I do agree with some opinions that when we learn languages we should enjoy it not to pressure our self. Our brain could not work better and easily and optimally when we gave too much things that it has to produces. So, it is very important to enjoy during learning. Learning language by fun is more relax and fantastic than being depressed because of many rules in the textbook where you have to finish it with no excuse about mistakes. 

Well, so, let’s enjoy our learning. Get something fun and you are going to be satisfied and never give up anymore. It would be much better enjoy the process than always think  about the target or destination. It is like you are climbing to the top of mount, and then you want to enjoy your step from the beginning, from the very easy road, to the top of mount. I do believe that we will be much better if we want to enjoy during journey to the top of mount than always complaining as long as you walk to the top of mount.

Right now, After I comfortable enough in my English and traditional Arabic, I want to learn new language. My choice is Spanish. Why do I choose Spanish because I get similarity rules in grammar between Spanish and Arabic. Arabic has male and female pronoun, Arabic has conjugation and Spanish too. 

So I think that it is good idea to start learning Spanish because has similar characteristics in both languages. Even though I start learning Spanish, now I still improve my Spoken skill in English and Arabic by Chatting on Facebook, Skype, and try to write in both language to maintain all things I have known it. 

Hopefully I can use languages which I have as my skills to my better life. I’ll do my best for everything I want include learning languages. Okay guess Let learn language you like to and focus on your target until you get it easily and eventually you can use the language you have learn to add knowledge, to know about cultures, Languages, in order to be strong man and to be wise.

Okay, well, that is all what I can share to you here. I want to say ‘be happy language learners’.. J See you in another topic. Hopefully you like reading my post here. Thanks for coming here. Bye.

How should We learn new Language?

Today I’m going to talk about my opinion about learning language. Well, first of all, We must realize that we need language in our life, don't we ?  

Of course, every baby needs language as a media to expresses what he/she wants. So, baby learns every word and records it in his/her brain. Of course baby can not use it to speaks before he/she really has enough natural ability for it. So after the time is coming, he/she naturally can use a lot of vocabularies in the sentence in speaking with mother, father or friends.  

What do I mean of this story? I would like to say that we should learn new language like how kids learned. We should do it naturally without oppression. 

Well, some one might said to me, "we are different with 'baby' ". Of course! I don’t say we are same. I want to say that we should learn language naturally like kids learn. Learning language naturally, we start from listening as much as we can.

Listening is the basic way for kids to learn their mother tongue. So, we do listening while memorizing new vocabularies that we can take from listening or from another resource. I think that we need time to be fluent. So, process is really needed for being fluent. 

Doing activity as a habit is absolutely good. It can be used for learning language. I want to say if we can do learning new language constantly, managing a schedule and always be on time to do that in our activity, that would be great.

Then, the last thing that I want to say is that when kids have enough vocabularies, they try to practice it in talking with mother, father, brother, and friends. It is naturally, because human being need it to survive. 

Well, so we must practice our vocabularies to be able to speak language we learn. At a least we use very common vocab in the sentences every day. I think It’ll help us to be  faster to get fluent in language we learn. 

So, it’s simple to learn new language, unless we don’t have to get it directly, without any difficulties and process. So, we should do it naturally, by phase of learning. Doing naturally it means we learn language intently, constantly, every time, focus on it until we get it easily, spontaneously, in our speaking. Well, good luck for your learning.

My Review about Polyglot Meetup in Yogyakarta
Audio File: Check it out

Yesterday on Saturday evening I joined The Meetup polyglot Indonesia in Jogja. I was invited to take part of this agenda. I was interested to go there, finally I went joining this agenda where was held by Jogja-PolyglotIndonesia. Here we were sharing together about languages such us French Spanish English and many other. Someone shared his experience and another one listened and gave comments.

This Agenda began with introduction our self between one each other. At that time I was so impressive because in fact there is woman who was able to speak Mandarin waw…, she introduced herself by mandarin language with mandarin style or accent. Everyone has time to introduced using language he/she wanted at that time. After introduced we was split into three tables. English table, Spanish Table, and French table. And I chosen English table coz I’m focusing on English right now.

Language for me is for practical. I mean that when I learn language I learn it for communicating to people in different country and different language. So, my focusing or goal learning Language is to be able to speak language that they speak. I think that learn language is choice. It seems like kind of hobby. You may say that why are you so very ambition so much to learn any languages? This question shouldn’t be answered if he/she know it as a hobby. I mean that why I learn any language is because it is my hobby and I like it. I like learn another languages. So, if I can and like learn any language why not? Everyone has hobby and I have too. And my hobby is learn language.

Let’s back to our topic. In this Meetup of polyglot, I could learn more tips and ways how to learn different languages. One thing that I remember from one of my friends there, is when you want to be able to speak any languages, you shouldn’t focus just on the grammatical approach. But beside that, you should do practicing your language skills. You know, that language is something practical, so practice your language to other people. Try to speak in every single day. No worries about mistakes, no one never do mistakes in life. Trust to yourself that everyone has mistakes in his/her learning language. So, don’t worry to make mistakes. You know, you can learn more and more from mistakes you have made. Yes, I’m agree with my friend statement, I realize that focusing so much on grammatical is not enough to help me be able to improve my language skill especially to speak to native languages. and be afraid to make mistakes is danger, because it will make you so scary if you do mistakes when you practice your language.

Anyway, this club has a lot of beneficial for me, I can improve my listening and speaking from them. Some of them got advance in their language learning, some of them still in intermediate and some of them in the middle level. If you’re interested, you may try to join this Meetup of Yogyakarta polyglot for the next agenda. I think for you who’s interested to learn any languages, this is very good for you, so never let it don’t leave it……,,, go register yourself.

I'm coming again. now I would like to share my experience on my English learning Process. okay I started learning English since I was child, exactly when I was in elementary school. What do you think when I said that ?.

You guess that I was so fluent in English. But the reality was not like that. After I graduated from my studies in Elementary school, Junior high school, Senior high school I had still been difficult to speak English. I was so sad because of this problem.

So, finally I decided to encourage my self to be active learner. I never give up to continue my study. I have realized that what should I do now is to learn more and more and practice Speaking and listening. I know that if I wanna be able to speak English, there is something important you have to do, it is practice and practice. 

I try to forget my fall in my bad experience and do the something beneficial on my future. I try to focus on learning till I feel confident to speak English easily and well.

"where there is will there is way" . this wisdom always I hold on my Mind to support my goal and purpose of my learning language. anyway, for me, there is no word to say : I can not do this, I have stopped, I'm not able to learn any languages etc.

I LOVE LANGUAGES

Hi, meet me again

How are you?  Are you okay? I hope so.

Today, I’m gonna share my experience.I have been studying English for many many years, but in fact, until now I’m not able to speak English ? Why? What’s wrong with me? I was really confused because of that, until I thought that learning languages were not my talent, learning language for me was impossible. 

And then I stopped my learning for many-many years. Finally, I found new Power. I’m inspired by someone who is able to speaks many many languages of the world. I’m amazed, how come? Is that possible? At that time I said it was so crazy and I did not think he could do that but it was real and I see that on my eyes from his videos.

So, I decided my self to come back in learning languages especially learning English. I started from the basic materials. I have downloaded many material of English for listening and speaking practice. Firstly, I’m, as a beginner of language learner, of course it was not easy to learn language from the basic until I can speak to native. 

But, I believe that language is skill, so if I wanna be fluent in many language, I have to practice it in speaking again and again many many hours a day. Sometimes I felt frustrated and sometimes I felt happy and I were motivated to study language.

The important thing in learning language is method. I looked for suitable method for learning, but I did not find it. Many methods did not work for me. So I decided to start from listening and basic Grammar. I thought that listening for The beginner is very necessarily and needed. Because it’s natural in learning language. 

From listening I’ll try to speak with simple phrases or idioms which it were used by native. For instance, Hello? What are you doing? How are you doing? What’s going on? What happen?, Hi, you look so funny..!, Hi, what’s up?, See ya.., I have got to go back.., I’m gonna go to bed..., have a nice day,,,, have a good sleep honey..., good night, I wanna be a master..., Hi...,,, where have you been?  Sorry, I’m late....,, it’s okay..,, Oh no..,, it’s not real..,, what the hell...!, I used to cry if my mom does not give me money to buy something....,,,, and then, what do you think about my English ?

I need your comment guess...,, :) here I just write what I can write in English base on my basic material. On one semester this year, I focus on English, so almost my times are used for learning English, I think I can do it till I got my target real...., although I have to be crazy or do not care to other thing hehehe...:) =D I just think realistic that learning needs focus to be really able to get it. 

If you wanna be master in something, what will you do?, of course you will try to focus on your target all of your times a day a month and a year. So , if you are like that, you are on your right path. Keep it until you get what you want. Okay guess...., maybe that’s all what I can say to you.... , Good luck and See you next time Bye bye........ :) :)

Oh languages, how great you are all of people use you and love you very much. They use you as a way to express their feeling or ideas or many thing they have in their brain to other people. I wonder because of you. You are really very helpful for human being. You are as a symbol of communication have been used by people between one each other in their daily life. How important you are! some one could become sad because of you, and on the contrary become happy because of you too. Oh language, almost people hunted you, learned you, in every where, in different place and every situation. You are like a girl who is not easy to find you, to persuade you to catch you. They need many efforts, powers, long times, and even they have to take their money out for the sake of you. 

You know, how many people feel stress when they could not get you after have learned for many many years. Unfortunately, it is not every body who has been able to get you easily and fast. Getting you is quite difficult and need hard efforts. Of course every one must has different ways and methodology to learn language. Sometimes they get you easily, and sometimes they have to do hard to get you. You’re the unique thing that I have known. I hope on day I am gonna get you, and make you as my skill and partner in my daily life. Well that’s all what I can write to you, see you next times, have a great day... :) :)
