Journal Topic #3: Something new in English

This weekend, do something new in English that you have never done before. For example, listen to a radio station you have never listened to; read a book, newspaper, or magazine you have never read; go somewhere and speak to someone you have never spoken to; etc.

What have you learned from this activity? How much English did you understand? Would you do this activity again?
