My Epals (My second speech for TM)

Email pal(epal)
Do you know this phrase, pen-pal? I think most of you know this phrase, and about email pal, it is like pen pal, however, instead of using traditional letter, we email pals use emails to contact each other.

Four years ago I was the freshman in the university. One day I met two special people when I was take my medical treatment in the hospital. And they are a brother and a sister. To my surprise, these two people talked to each other in English. I was very curious so that I asked them, “you why say english?” The girl got puzzle at first and soon understood what I meant and said we are Taiwanese Australian, our family had moved to Australia in their early age, therefore, we speak english not chinese. Then, I ask them to give me their email addresses because I wanna make friend with them, and they soon gave it to me, so I soon emailed to them when I came back to school. And I only got the girl’s reply several days later. Her name is Angela. Then, Angela became my first epal and we kept in touch for four years. She is the epal who I like the most, cute, shinning and diligent. I learned a lot from her through these four years, sharpened my english writing skill, learned more about her interesting life and country. Australian are not the workalcoholic people, and they like to enjoy their life. They are more easygoing and like to spend more time on their recreation.

A lot of people like to ask me why my english is soooooo great, my answer is always this one, cause’ I have a lot of epals all over the world, China, Japan, Korea, Germany, America, Mexico, and Australia.(Show some pictures about your epals) It is crazy, isn’t it? I was thinking how I can use english every day when I wan the freshman in the university, and then I soon found out that making a epal is a very good way to learn english. Therefore, I made a lot of epals in my school life. Making a epal is full of funs and benefits like improving your english, learning more about their culture, food and music and people. If you are lucky, you can be invited to their county and have a lot of fun. By making a lot of epals in my life, i became a real earthman, not just a Taiwanese.

So, are you getting interesting in making a epal? How to find a epal in your life?
Here I give you one good website for you to find a pal, Dave’s café. It is a American website for you to learn english and find a nice friend to study with. There are a lot of resources about learning english, you can go to take a look later. Besides, there are some different kinds of epals and some ways of making epals. You can try to hit on a foreigner somewhere in taiwan and ask their email address like I did shamelessly for my first poor epal. Or simply find a epal on the Internet, and both of you may not meet each other for a period of time, like my Mexican and Japanese epals. Or just ask your friends to be your epal. Moreover, instead of simply using email to contact each other, why not try to use Msn, yahoo massenger and Skype. You can talk to your epals and also see their pretty faces. Also, you can practice your english speaking and listening ability. Doesn’t it sounds cool? So, since making epals has a lot of funs and benefits, why not try to make one in your life? I promise it will make your life more colorful and fantastic!
