Hi there, This is my first posting in this Board - actually, I have posted several writings in English to other board before. For a certain reason which I have not been able to resolve yet, I have no other choice but to use only English at this point. Though it is extremely inconvenient to understand myself in English, finally I found that this inconveniency gives a great opportunity to improve my ability of writing English and moreover even speaking English. As a result, I do not try to find a solution for my problem any longer. I believe that this board will serve as a good place for me to practice writing English in a more extensive way than ever. As I thought that my articles would put me to shame, I could not participate to this board, but to just browse it. However, I am here and will be in this board hereafter. Proteus P.S. 1. If there's someone to take an opportunity to increase English proficiency - I mean speaking English - on the Net by chatting, why don't you e-mail to me at chi@silla.snu.ac.kr right now. 2. Please bear in mind that you are supposed to e-mail in English, because my e-mailer can not recognize any bit of character in Hangul. |\_/|____/| _ /| /\_/\ /\_/\ :\_/: /\_-_/\ \O.O| \o.o| \'o.O' =o o = (o o) \O O/ ( O O) ------------------------------------------------- E-mail : chi@silla.snu.ac.kr
