Most of my opponents they own these kind of color pencils and as for me, my dad can only afford me the small size Luna color pencils which only has 12 colors inside. Seriously, how am I going to compete with only those 12 colors inside? Once again, my confident level decrease because I didn't manage to complete my coloring but I did some coloring skills that my dad had taught me before the competition. With my parents blessing, I won the 1st place in junior category and these 1 set of color pencils was one of the prize. I felt really happy at the moment and when I reached home, I cried when I saw my dad walked out from the kitchen.

UFS 211 6th Task

The common mistakes that I found out I always did in writing mostly more to English grammatical stuff. Sometimes, I find out that the used of English grammar in a sentence is very confusing while writing an essay. Initially, I did think that writing in English was a very difficult task for me since I'm haven't mastered the English language but then after doing more practice in writing English essay and read more people's writing skills, it is not a big problem for me to write an English essay anymore. I used to face problems like the lack of using vocabularies, unable to generate ideas because of the lack of general knowledge or finds out that too much ideas that came across and don't know what to write first while writing essay. So, how do I overcome these problem? Well, I started to read more English source such as reading the English online news and English newspapers in order to increase my general knowledge. Moreover, I also started a new habit which is reading more English books such as novels and story books to improve the used of vocabularies. If you have generate too much ideas while writing essay and didn't know where to start, try to organize them by listing down all the ideas. It really works!
