Reasons I major in EE, minor in AFL (revised)

It has been almost three years ever since I entered National Taiwan University of Science and Technology. In the very beginning, I made a quick decision to major in Electronics Engineering. And, as I was a sophomore, I made up my mind to minor in Applied Foreign English. As to me, in practice, there have been several motives playing vital roles in affecting what I have chosen to major or minor in.

Learning through process

Sometimes it's really hard to notice how much we have learnt from just doing. Human beings are ,of course , one kind of the most intelligent creatures in the world, and people do learn everything in any ways. It could be communication, books, the Internet and even just doing.

What first comes to my mind about this word is something like the flow of stream or something similar.

Assignment 11 - Asking a question on BBC Learning English Message Board

How can I say that ?

Hi,

I wonder how to express that situation if I want to describe that someone feels sorry but still have to tell the truth because it is necessary. Could anyone help me to come up with an example sentence?

Thank you already.

B: "You can't handle the truth!" (29th most famous line in motion picture history)

I asked a question on learning English Message Board last night. It's been about two hours before I got Robert's reply. At first, I am worried about whether nobody want to answer my question. I'm glad to get a reply finally. The following is the website of my discussion.
