Well, I want to share something about what happened today. It was just a usual day for me. I got up around 6:30 am. In the morning I edited some videos before leaving home for work. After that I had food and we headed to the plot area. As there are masons doing construction work there is not much work we need to do. Hence we were there only to observe and instruct them how we want to build. Now couple minutes back I've arrived home from work and lying down on the floor and writing this to fulfill my daily task of learning English. Not long later I'll have dinner. Thanks for reading my writing. Please humble request help me correcting my writing. I know for sure you'll see plenty errors in my writing therefore. Have a good one. I appreciate it so much.

Well, I want to share something about what happened today, although it was pretty much just a usual day for me. I got up around 6:30 am, and later this morning, I had some food, and I edited some videos before leaving home and heading over to the plot area. As the masons at the work location were already doing the actual construction work, there really was not much work that my brothers and I needed to, or even could, do. Hence, we were there only to observe, as well as instruct them, if needed, should they not follow the plans as to how exactly we wanted them to build things. Now, though, I have just been back home for only a couple of minutes, and I am lying down on the floor and writing this to fulfill my daily task of learning English. Not long afterward, I'll have dinner. Thanks for reading my writing. Please fulfill my humble request to help me by correcting my writing. I know for sure that you'll see plenty of errors in my writing. Have a good one! I will appreciate it so much.
Hi, Kupuvi. Good job! Just a few things to think about. 1) It's “a university.” The grammar rule is 'an' before vowels EXCEPT for words that start with the letter 'u' and that letter has the sound 'you.’ Thus, “an umbrella” is good, but “an university” is not. 2) It was not clear when you had the food--at home or at the worksite or as you were going there? I made it at home, but in your writing, be logical, or at least explain it so that it makes sense to the reader. 3) Two independent or complete (stand alone) clauses, which represent a complete thought, need a comma and a conjunction to be together as a sentence, but one independent or complete clause and a dependent clause does not. Note the difference: I have only been back home for just a couple of minutes (this is a complete sentence by itself)[, and] I am now lying down on the floor (this, too, is a complete sentence). I am now lying down on the floor (still a complete sentence) [and] writing this entry on Italki (this is a dependent clause). It needs to be joined to the first part to have a subject, to be complete, and to make sense. Sadly, Kupuvi, I seem to confuse more people than I help whenever I try to explain things. However, if we can get you to write full sentences, little by little, with the proper punctuation, your writing will greatly improve. Best of luck!

You have written it very well 😊. I did not understand the 2nd last line so I put it in the brackets 😛.

After that I had the food and we headed to the plot area. As there are masons doing construction work there is not much work that we needed to do. Hence we were there only to observe and instruct them how we want it to be built. Now, before a couple of minutes I've arrived home from work and I am lying down on the floor and writing this thesis to fulfill my daily task of learning English. Not long, later I'll have dinner. Thanks for reading my written thesis. Please I humblly request to help me by correcting my work (written thesis). I know for sure you'll be finding plenty of errors in my work (written thesis).
