Few days ago I received an email from one guy which ask me if am for hire. Felt a little bit funny. For hire? You know… 
After a few emails he wanted to speak with me over the phone. Oh, I felt so stupid because I’m not self confident enough. That’s because of my English. I think my English stinks and that’s why I am reluctant to speak to people over the phone, particularly to native English speakers. I find it difficult to select the right words so I make loads of mmm, hhhhhmmmm, aaaaaa… etc.
Writing English, well, that’s a bit different. Google helps, dictionary and off course: there is a big help my husband who’s English is far from perfect but he manages, somehow (*kiss*)
It’s funny, but I started taking English lessons (at the same date as Italian lessons). Well, my English teacher is not very reliable (unlike the Italian one). First it took about 10 days to set up our first lesson, then she was supposed to call me to arrange the date for a second lesson, that was three days ago - and I’m still waiting for that call. It look s like I’ll have to find another one.
So, I’m here, sitting and writing. Yes, I can fluently speak and write. In Croatian. Need help? Let’s swap, I’ll help you with Croatian, you help me with my English.
