Hello!
I want to find a way to improve my English!
I found myself can't explain what I want to say very clearly, especially, something related to emotion.
I have been watching American TV series for years, and listening to English music since 5 years ago, but still I think it is not enough for me.
I would like to learn some slang, and read some books.
I want to start from something easy, easy for me to understand.
Magazines that I like including the ‘National Geography’, and the ‘Reader's Digest’. However, sometimes, I can’t understand all the articles in the “National Geography”.
Please recommend me some books! And also the singer that you like!

If you like dancing like I do, and your listening skills are good, have a listen to these. (These are related to emotions..I guess)
1)Far East Movement - Like a G6 (feat. The Cataracs & Dev)
2)Flo Rida - Club Can't Handle Me ft. David Guetta
3)Usher - Yeah! and OMG
4)Rihanna - rude boy
Dance moves:
1)fly Step out, fly bird, slide and break, put your hands up, tear it down dance moves.
2)zeo roll, geo flick, bent clap etc..
3)longboard breaker, skate, push back dance move, etc (if you are interested in hip hop moves)
4) salute, salute pound, 9 to 5, shimmey feet and the simple cross & roll etc.
To learn more English, (I recommend you watching movies, drama, episodes, rather than listening to music)
Twilight (Contains romance and fantasy)
Big Bang Theory (Contains humor and science)
Friends <--- (Contains idioms which you may have not heard)
Legally Blonde 1 & 2 (Contains professional legal dialogue)
Prison Break (General English)
Lost (General English)
24 (General English)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer <--- Lots of dialogue
These are a few helpful recommendations. Hope this helps
I know Like a G6!!! I've listened to that ><
I am a fan of Rihanna! I love her voice!!!
and I like OMG ><
Usher's moves are really amazing!!!
I will check these dance moves~
Haha, twilight, haha, romance,right,hum?
( I am a boyish girl, and twilight is really a gril's stuff ><. All my roomates watched that, except me,haha. BTW, if you like that, no offence)
I watched Big Bnag Theory for 3 seasons, I guess, I like that, I like leonard ><
Friends, I have watched some episodes of it, but sometimes, I don't know why people are laughing.....:(
I like PB,Lost,and 24, their stories are all very tense!!!My style!
REALLY THANK YOU!!!!! VERY HELPFUL!!!
( It seems that you like vampires a lot, or it is because I am a girl, so you recommend me something about vampires??? ^^)
You can start reading some books like kids books which don't have a lot of complicated vocabulary.
I think so!
I will try!

My favorite books from middle school/high school:
- "A Wrinkle in Time" by Madeleine L'Engle
- "Where the Red Fern Grows" by Wilson Rawls
They're both older books so won't help with slang much but reading any books will help you be more comfortable with common phrases.
I will try to find these books online!!!!
