February 17th! Chinese New Year, a solar eclipse, and my birthday, too. Today is a very eventful day, and I've joined a large group of English learners. I hope this whirlwind of events will give me the energy to gain a better understanding and command of English. Well, we'll see... I'm still at the very beginning of this journey, even though I've been trying to learn English for over 20 years. I hope today will change something in my life for the better.
