Ladies and Gentleman: I did it! Finally, I really did it. It is the *
10,000 post!!! *It is exactly four and a half year when I signed TSR up. This is a good occasion for a review: When I signed up, I was planning to improve my English language skills and my understanding for this one. Thus the goal, writing 10,000 posts, was both a motivation to participate in TSR durably and also a joke of my own, as I would never have thought I would achieve this holy border of a legend, don't to mention in this short time in which I am online. And the (long) thousand posts before, I have always told what it made with me: began to read texts, poems and even novels in English, listening to English music and watching English films. I even began to talk with people who are (quite) good in this foreign language. They were astonished why I am so good in this language without having experiences by travelling. I needed TSR, as I am not used to going to English speaking countries to perform the knowledge. Without it, I would had never made so many progresses. And I have hardly opportunities to improve it as a foreign-speaker living far away from the UK. Thanks to TSR, I have even got a passion for this language, although it didn't count to my favorite from the beginning.
In this time, I have shared my thoughts and experiences with another members in everyday issues, I have helped students, where I can (even if I was wrong now and then), I have given advices to people and I have listened to musics, I have taken part in polls and discussions, I have even written haikus (greetings to you, the bear!). That is what stands for four and a half years and 10,000 posts in those.
*During this time I have thought about a new challenge, that is to say learning another foreign language, say Spanish. I really would love to learn it, but I can't at the moment. After got quite fluent in English, it is time to try something new. After 10,000 posts that is the new, a better and a tougher goal in my life. *
