This is a small story I typed on microsoft word early today.
The traffic light turns blue, as Jane fiercely hammered on the brakes of his rainbow colored 1995 honda accord civic. Cruising with the winds, the feeling of comfort, restless covered his inter thought. There was a sound, about a mile away, felt forever to reach. As the sound approach, Jane was slower than a turtle. His heart rate dropped like a glass from a 12 story building, which was impossible to repair. A man dressed like a clown was behind him, but, his face was motionless. He came face to face with Jane. He demanded, “May I see your driver license and Insurance, sir?” Jane obeyed. The officer was done investigating; Jane thought he was free as a bird since he had all his documents. Sadly, his luck was defeated, and he received a ticket for running a red light.

Be most proud and accomplished on how far you have progressed your English studies; your actual usage is not as bad as some who have been taught and exposed to the language early on. In fact, I understand your conveyances and intentions perhaps more clearly than others I have encountered in daily life who have certainly had more education and practice with it than you have.
In addition, it is, again, very admirable to admit your faults and lack of knowledge in the area, all in an effort to continually improve upon your understandings of the English language. If only because I viewed the film only yesterday, this situation somewhat resembles that of Tom Hanks' character in 'The Terminal', where he is portrayed as a foreigner with no solid understanding of English, but in his stay, he has the forebearance to progressively learn the language, and subsequently utilize it to his avail.
Diligence is the word of the day, Mr flyez.
