I can't believe our English is still bad...

Editing an assignment is one of the best things to do. NOT! Friends submit their part late, you stay up to the wee hours of the morn to finish editing.

Anyway, editing these assignments made me realise something. The English in Malaysia is still quite horrible. There are people who have gone through 12 years of education learning the English language and yet, the use of the language is still wrong.

The most primal part of writing an essay. Don't write as if you're speaking. Cause you're not. Speaking and writing and two different things altogether.

If you write like you're speaking, then your English will always be off.

Oh, tell me about it, Gabe. I'm an English major and I still get red squigglies from my peers. Welcome to the club, man.
