How to fix a computer



How to fix a computer

I normally do not fix a computer myself, once upon a time, my computer’s keyboard wasn’t working, so I took to the shop. They told me that I needed to change the keyboard, which will cost me £ 140.

If my computer doesn’t work, I will try to fix it myself and if still doesn’t work will give away for my nieces in Thailand. I know over there they can fix it easily and in a very cheaply cost. I will buy a new computer in a cheap and small one because it’s easy to carry around.

I am using a computer everyday, mostly for internet searching, keeping up with my friends and reading newspaper from Thailand.

My teacher's birthday celebration

Milagros’s birthday

We had a lovely time with our teacher. Milagros's birthday was Friday 17 February but because we didn't have a class on that day, we had to do just send an email to her for a wishing birthday to her.

Francesco made a special cake for her, which was very nice of him. I do enjoy attending my class because such a fun for meeting all my classmates.I felt very good to be able to celebrated with her and my friends.

We all have the cake during our break which was about 7.20ish on Tuesday the following week.



Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde

During my evening class last week. My teacher Milagros has given us the work sheet of Oscar Wilde. I thought this man is one of the famous actors in the past. I never even read his books. My teacher kindly told us after our work done. We have to answer the truth or false about him. My Italian and Spanish classmates were the best because they had learn his books when they were at school back home in their counties.

For me, I never knew who was Charles Dickens or Oscar Wilde. I had learn from what I hear from television during Christmas for Charles Dickens.
I preferred to write about Oscar Wilde because I think his life is unusual and well as extraordinary life.
I was amazed though about people from history they seem very cleaver. I think the good things of people over here are that they have more opportunity to study to learn new things.
In Thailand, I don’t think people like to read the books as much. I supposed because first of all we don't have a public library for community, even in Bangkok, the capital: I was living there for 20 years and never seen the public library. The books are very expensive to buy. The people are too busy to do their work ( the villages). The local has only ideas that why you have to read, we’re from the third world and still under development so that why people don’t enjoy much as over here.

What made me write a blog about Oscar Wilde today? I was watching one of his works last night. Dorian Gray was on film 4. I was curious by the story of the lead role in the film. This morning I went out to check if there any books from his work in the library. I went to Peckham library but sadly I couldn't find any books under his name. The library has some but someone else has borrowed it.

Today is Sunday so there are not many libraries open. As my teacher said we should read some of his works because he so clever that why I wanted to read. I might check out again later this week so I can read during my Easter holiday break.
I understand that I need to improve my English by read a lot of novel especially the classics. Today, I am trying to write everything in my blog if I have time so I could practise my English by writing as well as reading.
I do enjoy writing something more creative as my teacher spoke to me during my class. She told me that I need to be more patient and always proofread what you have written on your work. I told her that I am going to do more writing and  proofread after my work.
