Writting your blog in English

Today is my friends" wedding. I''''m so happy for them, because this is their first love. However, I feel sad for myself as I''ve broken up with my boyfriend. In fact, I cannot believe this is happening/has happened to me. We had been in love for 2 years and I thought he was the one I really wanted to marry. Now he has gone far away from me. He told me that we had so many different tastes, different relations and so onõ?Ư That''s also what I think, so I had to decide to break up with him hoping a better life for both of us. I realize that it is difficult to forget him and wish that I could.
Sad love story btw. But it happens everywhere.

Thanks river, fatblack (you may look fat?) for correction many mistakes in my writing. reacent day, internet network in my house have met some problem, i couldn''''t accessed so i have had no writtings or commnets on this topic, sorry ...!!! (now,i''m in internet service ). When it was fixed, i wil have had many writting on this topic...see you!

I think it is a good idea, besides discussing about a detail topic, you can write everything that you want to share with everybody.
The first time when I thought about this thread, I hope it is like a daily diary which people can express their feelings, emotions of course in English. Sometimes I feel that we express our feelings in English more naturally and easier than in Vietnamese especially when we are miserable, sad or disappointed. Sometimes we should write it down to release our emotions, but normally we are afraid to write in Vietnamese but sometimes we feel ashamed when we read it again.

Vacation
I had a vacation in last week. Four days off, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I did not surf the internet until now. Before I had the day off, I had intended to post writing on my blog also on TTVN, but unfortunately our Internet connection was dropped out and I could not post any thing on the Internet. On my vacation, I had some things to do, some relate to job, some relate to personal business. Well, I bought some special books, visited some friends. It was not boring but it was not interesting as I hoped. Now I start working again, I have a little time to write and watch friendsâ?T blog. I wish everyone has a nice week.

Hi there,
It?Ts not quite hard to understand what are you saying, but if it?Ts rewritten as below, it will be caught easily by folks:
Last week, I had a vacation for 4 days on Thu till Sun. Before this vacation, I would had have written on my blog and TTVN if my Internet Connection had been connected. I haven?Tt surfed internet since Thursday yet. On the vacation, I did some things and did some related jobs as well as personal business. Well, I bought some special books and visited my friends. Though it was not boring, I did hope it must be more interesting than was. Right now, starting my work. I don?Tt have much time to write and see my friends?T blog. I wish you a nice week.
1st , using a Present Perfect will be right ?~cos until ?onow? you are using Internet
2nd, using ?obut? & ?ounfortunately? wouldn?Tt better than the ?ohad...would?
3rd, using ?othê? to refer to thing you are saying.
4th, using negative ones would be more popular than others in English, talk directly to me would more appreciated..

@AoLO, your e***ed version is very very different from his original version:

1. 4 days off + a vacation does not necessarily mean a 4-day vacation, although it is most likely in this case.
2. "His internet connection was dropped" is different from "his internet connection had not been connected".
3. "Some related jobs" = some tasks related to what you have just mentioned before (no such thing in this case).
4. I think by "now I start working again" he implies a new workweek, not "right now". river_sound, please confirm

Before I had the day off, I had intended to post writing... By the tenses of the two clauses, I understand it as: You only had had the intention to write, and you abandoned that intention as soon as you had your days off. It''''''''s like "Before I met her, I had intended to marry another girl". But next you wrote "unfortunately our internet connection was dropped", so I assume that you intended to write before taking your vacation/having your days off
My e***ed version of your text: (i''''''''ve tried not to change too much)

Last week, I had a vacation on my 4 days off from Thu *****n and wasn''''''''t able to access/surf the internet until now. On the day before my days off, I was going to post on my blog and also on TTVN when unfortunately our internet connection was dropped. (Or: I was going to post on my blog and also on TTVN before taking my vacation when...) On my vacation, I had many things to do, some were job-related, some were personal businesses. Well, I bought some special books, visited some friends. It was not boring but I did hope it to be more interesting. Now I start (Now having started) working again, I have little time to write and view friends?T blogs. I wish you all a nice week.

Just my 2 cents.

Well, thank you all of you have helped me in repairing my writing. I want to explain some ideas in my text. ?oBefore I had the day off, I had intended to post writing on my blog also on TTVN, but unfortunately our Internet connection was dropped out and I could not post any thing on the Internet.? It means I know that on my vacation I did not surf the internet until I come back to work. I have worked again since Monday of this week.? I have little time to write and view friends?T blogs? My idea is I have enough time to write and view friends?T blog. That why the sentence ?oI have a little timê?? expresses rightly my idea. It seems difficult to understand but now I have little work to do, however in my office I can surf on the Internet whenever I want. Ah, I think that ?ofriends?T blog? is correctly than friends?T blogs.
If you are interesting in essays, I try posting some academic question and give my ideas. Anyone who wants to share your ideas is warmly welcome.
I hope we will help each other in improving our English. Thank you for your attending.
