A. Summary
I was talking with four people. We were in the same room. David is the host of the room. He is living in Pittsburgh. He served in the army for 20 years. He retired now. Surprisingly, he stayed in Seoul at 88 Olympics. Anyway, Felewa is a Germany. She is 23years old. She is interested in learning Japanese. There was a man whose ID is smile but I don't know his name because he didn't tell us his name. All I know about him is that he was born at China but he is living in Japan now. His English was quiet good so I was impressed.
We were talking about differences between English and other language such as Korean, Chinese, Japanese. For example, we talked different sentence structure. I told them that Europeans were better than Asian in learning English because of the alphabet and sentence structure. They agreed with my opinion. We also talked about Pittsburgh. Actually, Felewa and David were talking about it because Felewa was interested in Pittsburgh. I didn't remember what they said except civil war.
It was so difficult to find a nice and good conversational partners. However, it was great time. As you said, we could improve speaking skills and listening skills. Thank you.

I hope you use Paltalk or SKYPE regularly during summer vacation. It's a great way to practice your English conversation skills. Just cybersurf and try to compile a list of online conversation partners. Just be VERY CAREFUL. There are a lot of "mad cows" out there in cyberspace. By the way, speaking of cows, try not to focus on topics that only Koreans are agitated about (Mad Cow Disease, Dokto, etc.). Most foreigners are completely ignorant of these issues, and it will be hard to carry on a conversation. Take care, and enjoy your summer vacation. Maybe I'll see you next semester.
P.s.: check your gmail in a few days.
