TIP

I am tired physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. We were given nine projects in one week and we only had one week to do it before the due date. (but thank the guy above, because i'm finally done!) But we still have upcoming exams next week. (my life is depriving my happiness)

Also, I want to mention all these people who commented in this chapter (you know who you are) who made me bundle of joy, especially to those two grammar nazist who gave extra tip/advice. You guys are the source of my happiness, "only for today." (HAHAHA)

The last time I wrote this– I was out of words since I was 'too' tired to type all of my ideas in here. (and I don't have plenty of time to write them all down + I only have two hands that can't do multiple things simultaneously) I EVEN FORGOT MY SPEECH (my preaching speech + qotd + words of wisdom).

Anyways, shall we proceed? (btw, @/MsAmanie, you'll be always my inspiration– english teacher slash future lawyer <3)

These are the three basic techniques, in order for you to improve but before I start explaining each one of them..

Please avoid these kind of shortcuts:

U instead of YOU
URE instead of YOU'RE
UR instead of YOUR
PLS instead of PLEASE
OMG instead of Oh My Gosh
IDC instead of I Don't Care
IDK instead of I Don't Know
IKR instead of I KNOW RIGHT
IK instead of I KNOW
IDGAF instead of I DON'T GIVE A F–

"Am I violating your rights @/readers?" YES?

"IDC!"

especially this kind of texts, "h3110 1m $MuGg113b3@n$" I am not from your planet so please do not talk to me like that. HAHAHA I used to do that to someone who had a crush on me but I don't like him back but we are in good terms now. 'COMAS, PERIOD, QUESTION MARK, PUNCTUATION MARK is a MUST' in order for the readers to understand what you're trying to point out/state.

Don't use too much '!!!!!!!!' '???????' '.......' ',,,,,,'

Also don't use too much 'and', 'but', 'despite', and so on and so fourth. There are thousands of words out there that can be use . . .

(it depends if it shows contrast, comparison, cause and effect, and lastly steps in process)
but – on the other hand
therefore – hence, thus
despite – rather than
even if – instead, although
even so – unlike, nevertheless
nevertheless – despite, in spite of, nonetheless

You should learn how to use modals, present/past/future participles, present/past/future tense, plural/singular, cohesive devices, parallel sentences(?)

Those are just basic english. Basically, there are 2 Types of English– (1) Basic English which are words that are commonly used (2) Deep English which is the opposite of Basic E.

Deep words include Facade, Sweltering, Paramount, and many more.

3 BASIC TECHNIQUES IN ORDER FOR YOU TO IMPROVE:

– read
– listen
– understand

READ as much as you can, try to understand/analyze what you are reading because what is the purpose of reading if you do not even understand what you're reading. There are tons of stories out there that could serve you as a guide.

(+ provide yourself a dictionary, devote yourself to read)

I do not care if you guys use korean words since we all have the rights to do what we want and it's your life anyways. <3

Of course, you have to feel inspired or motivated whilst doing it. (i highly suggest to read cuckoos calling from JK Rowling, the winner stand alone by Paulo Coelho, and Shakespeare's qoutes– am I the only fan of them?)

LISTEN, first and foremost, you should know what's your purpose of learning the universal language, no other than English. If your purpose is only to pass your english exam, then it won't last for a lifetime. In fact, you're just a surface learner. But if your purpose is to learn and to strive harder, then surely it would last for the lifetime.

Well, of course most of you loves to watch movies (horror, fantasy, etc.)– listening to their words will make it easier for you to understand what the protagonist/antagonist or the story is trying to point out, as well as the music. (there are metaphor, hyperbole and simile)

UNDERSTAND, I don't have to exert effort typing everything why 'understanding' is part of the 3 basic techniques because it's already written on the top.

Well, as an amateur writer myself, I wouldn't say too much for i'm encountering the same trials as others, but based on my experience, my advice to those who wanted to be an author/writer someday is to look forward, not only with your eyes but with your heart and with your mind. It may be easy to see where you're going but it's merely knowing where you're heading. You have to have your heart and mind facing the same direction and once you have both doing so, . . . You'll get want you wanted to be.

Just continue to write, write from your heart, in other words, BE YOURSELF– BE YOU! Know your purpose why you are writing and what is it for. Write because you love it, not because of how many reads, votes and followers you have. Write, to prove them that you're brave and your words are worth reading and turn your imaginations and ideas to reality, let your voice be heard of millions of human beans in this planet.

It doesn't matter how bad your grammar is but as long as the readers understand you then you'll get there someday.. you'll get what you wanted. It doesn't matter what people says to you, their opinions matters less, serve it as a motivation for you to prove them that they are wrong. Even the negativity still gets you, you must not stop. You must still attain your goal whether you are alone or not.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PURPOSE, THE THOUGHT OF THE PURPOSE IS WHAT BRINGS YOU TO YOUR GOAL.

TAKE NOTE: this is just an opinion-based and must not take seriously. Every unique individuals has a unique taste of writing. I REPEAT THAT THIS IS JUST ONLY IN MY OWN OPINION AND SHOULD NOT TAKE IT OFFENSIVELY, please don't ever think i'm criticizing any of your works– i'm a human being who has the freedom to express my thoughts, and so are you. INSTEAD, SERVE THIS AS A STEPPING STONE TO YOUR NEXT JOURNEY. TAKE THIS AS A LESSON.

All of you are ulirang, HAHAHAHA don't ask me what ulirang means– go find it for yourself. ;) But I do not think you could find the exact meaning of it.
