New Diary Entry

 2014 is here, syukur we are still given the chance to live and experience new year Hopefully this year we will be blessed with many more good things and achievements in life and in studies. So, please write out your new year wishes in your diary.....

 These students were so serious, thinking about what they would do and achieve in 2014.

 Don't worry about grammar mistakes. these can be corrected but what matters the most is your ability in expressing your feelings, ideas and thoughts.

Never mind if you have to stop for a while and then continue...this is normal since you stopped writing for a long time, right.....nobody writes willingly now as we are more comfortable doing other stuffs. but in examination, you still have to write, right? Well, maybe you have to force yourself now, but i strongly believe, bit by bit, gradually, you will become better writers........
