Hi. Elisha. Today's lesson was good. Please check my composition. There are three sentences which we studied 'used to' and had been ing patterns. I added 'for a long time' and since 2010 in 'had been ing' pattern sentences. Please give me two words and one idiom to use in my composition on this correction board or in the skype, as Dianne did. have a nice evening! How I believed in God. As you know that my wife is a faithful christian. When I proposed her to marry me, she made me promise that I would believe in God. I promised her at once. After we married, I went to church with her every Sunday for 9 years. But it was meaningless because I didn't believe in God. I mandatorily went to church to keep the promise that I made with my wife. When the marriage passed 9 years, I decided not to go to church. No more I want to act pretentiously. So I declared to my wife that I would not to go to church from this Sunday. she was very angry and sad. she asked me to keep the promise that I made with her before we married. But I did not change my mind for her. Because I was very painful to go to church without belief every Sunday. After I declared, we had many arguments about the Christian religion and the church where she used to go to. I thought the church was corrupt. Someday, another 9 years passed, I seriously criticized the church that she had been going for a long time. We quarreled so hardly. At that time I was too drunk. she suddenly asked that if she change her church, I would go to the church again. I didn't hesitate to answer that I would go to the church from next Sunday. I don't know until now why I answered like this. My wife chose another church and left her church where she had been going since 2010. For the next week after the quarrel, I stayed in malaysia because of my business. I came back to Korea on Sunday morning. My wife thought that I could not go to the new church because she saw how tired I was. But I went to the church with her. she was touched. I worshiped again in nine years. While I worshiped I shed tears so much. I don't know why I did. For a year after my first worship , I struggled to refuse I was being became a christian. I didn't want to be a christian. But I couldn't refuse that myself. I was changed gradually by some power. I started to read Bible and to sing hymn in my home and office. shedding tears, I prayed with my wife almost every night to repent to my life that was sinful. Of course recently I don't shed tears any more when I pray. This is how I believed in GOD. Thank you for listening to my composition. I couldn't insert the idiom 'dead in the water'. So I will explain the idiom separately. We use this idiom to express that something is failed perfectly. For example; I was dead in the water at last test.

 Hello Seung Ho! I am glad to hear that you had fun as much as I did. I can\'t wait to practice with you again tomorrow!~

You did an amazing job in writing this composition. Here are the words you may use for your next one; impeccable and enmity. Please try to use this idiomatic expression as well; to hit the nail on the head. Good luck! ^^~
