Are the speaking and listening tasks difficult for you? What are the challenges you often face when you listen and speak in English?

The speaking task is actually kinda difficult for me, so I would say yes.
I think I have more difficult in speaking tasks because I can't link all the vocab I know to construct a sentence in the very short time and I'll be nervous when talk to other.
(Like why do we speak in English one and other when we can actually speak Chinese? :))

My new plan this year!

It's a busy summer vacation. All of us are working hard in welcome camp, so there's no time to do other thing.
I'll try my best to face this semester, because the third semester will be harder than before.
Although I had no problem facing my last semester, I still won't underestimate this year.
I also plan to quit my part-time job to help my uncle's new beverage store and learning Korean.
I hope everything go well in this year and wish everyone have a nice year.
