Hi my dear buddies. I'd like to share good news with you: After 2 weeks' high pressure and a ton of hours overtime, today I received the final result of my training: I ACHIEVED the target and I'm QUALIFIED on this toughest task! Plus, I'm the UNIQUE qualified trainer for this task and I was nominated as the 1st GLOBAL TRAINER by our CLIENT and our team. I'm so proud of this as I will be responsible to deliver the training to other global centers and provide troubleshooting and auditing for them. The most excited part is my client said "Mariel's spoken English is better and GOOD ENOUGH to deliver this tough task to global centers and she will be competent to play the role of global trainer." I'm so excited that I received the recognation on my English from my US CLIENT, even though I know they may be tolerant to Chinese team. Anyway, this is good news I think!!! In the following weeks and months, STILL, I'll be busy on this project until Oct per the current plan. But, I can balance some time on my assignments practice after work every day cuz I assumed there would be not too many days I need to overtime to 11:30pm as the past 2 weeks. Lol...First of all, I will watch some owed class videos. Okay! See you! 🤗

My wife may go to Luxembourg on a business trip this fall, although it’s not certain yet. I’m dreaming of taking a solo trip around that time. I asked AI to do a little research for me. I’d like to enjoy delicious food and spend time peacefully in places that aren’t too crowded. Day 1 Japan → Luxembourg Day 2 LuxembourgSpend time with your wife. Stroll around the old town and enjoy a wine bar. Day 3 Luxembourg → Bilbao Take an LCC or a European airline. Evening:Enjoy pintxos in the old town (Casco Viejo). Day 4 Bilbao - Around the Guggenheim Museum - Riverside walks - Bar hopping Bilbao has a slight “Osaka, but not too metropolitan” vibe. Day 5 Bilbao → San Sebastián It’s a short trip. Even just walking along the seaside after arriving would be nice. At night, enjoy pintxos in the old town. Day 6 San Sebastián “A day to do nothing.” The kind of day for: - Morning cafés - Markets - The sea - Day drinking - Bookstores Day 7 Day trip to Getaria I think this town would suit you very well. - A small fishing port town - Grilled fish - Txakoli wine - A slightly faded atmosphere That kind of vibe is wonderful there. Day 8 San Sebastián → Santander Travel along the coastline. Things become much quieter from here. Day 9 Santander - Markets - The seaside - Old bars - Cafés It feels more like everyday local life than sightseeing. Day 10 Santander → Japan

I'm a big fan of marvel movies and marvel televisions, so I had watched most of their works like "Loki", " Eagle Eye", "Punisher" etc. And the three seasons "Daredevil" of Netflix version I had watched too. I was excited to enjoy the marvel's "Daredevil: Reborn", now it's finale over and I think each season of it is gorgeous and awesome without doubt. Matt is so cool🥰 So I'm here to recommond it for you guys. And it could be a great listening material by the way, except kingping's special accent.hh:) Back to English listening, when I watch these televisions, there's only 30% talking of it that I can realize without subtitle, and that is based on combine with characters' action, mood and scene. So I wonder how do you realize the meaning without subtitle, either english native spearker or not is fine, what's your first reaction or appear in your mind? A scene? A feeling? A sentence? Listen then realize is hard to explain. Enjoy😎
