Progress

Yesterday after shopping with my friend, we went to the restaurant Doree in Schöneberg (http://www.qype.com/place/102884-Doree-Berlin). The food doesn’t taste super good, but the price is really reasonable.

While enjoying our late lunch, there was a couple sitting next to our table chatting all along. I tried to listen to and understand their conversation, and found that I could grasp the meaning of whole of it and nearly catch 90% of their words. I am so happy to see the progress after studying 2 months in DeutschAkademie. It makes me feel I could mingle in the German society a bit more, and feel less like a foreigner.

Usually when I am on my way with a bus or U- or S-bahn, I would listen to the music and do some reading. However I find it perhaps is a good time to listen to what the people nearby are talking, so as to get more chances for practising my listening skills. Looking forward to seeing a bigger progress in the near future!
