When I was going to Philippines for the first time, 

I came here with great determination and courage.

But I wanted to give up and go back home when I saw myself doing too much while taking the exam and taking the class in the first week.

But it was good to study with friends from other countries when I had a group class with a good teacher.

 I found myself improving my English skills.

There were many various events at the CIA Language Institute, 

so it was great to have lots of fun and time passed by so quickly.

When I first arrived, I thought two months was too long and I thought it was a prison,

 but it seemed like two months passed in a second.

I miss my life at the Philippine Language Institute and I think I'll keep thinking about it.
