It was still raining today. Everything was ordinary. After school, Mom quickly whipped up fried rice for my dinner. Then, around dusk, she drove me to Vivian’s vocal class. The rain just wouldn’t stop, though. While waiting for my class to finish, Mom had little options for passing the time, especially since she had forgotten her umbrella. Later she told me that she sat on a bench for like one hour and change scrolling through her cellphone. Well, it wasn’t that much boring for me, I am still banned from using mine. And I really really want to fiddle with one, even for no purpose.

How to grow a memory that lasts 🧠 Our brain is like a garden. If you want something strong and useful to grow, you can’t just plant the seeds — you need to water them and take care of them. According to neuropsychological research, for new knowledge to really stick, your brain needs to build strong neural connections. Imagine a small path in the forest: if you walk it just once, the grass will quickly cover it again. But if you walk there every day, over time it turns into a clear, solid trail. That’s how language learning works, too.
Each time you practice, you take another step on that path.
Even short, regular practice helps turn it into a wide, reliable road you can walk with ease. So, don’t be too hard on yourself for making mistakes — they’re part of the journey.
 The most important thing is to keep moving forward!
