Articulating Properly

Today I had my Chinese class with my grandma, she used to teach Chinese to teachers so you could say she's like a pro at it. A couple weeks ago we were just learning some poems and tongue twisters but now she and my mom think that I don't speak very clearly, like not articulate properly, I probably don't pay much attention to it so they might be right about it. And like that my grandma is teaching me every single way of pronouncing a word.

 Apparently, after I'm done training with her then I'll talk super clearly and perhaps more people will understand me? I guess there's no harm in that. Also, my parents went to Best Buy today to buy a dryer since our old one broke. Well, actually it's been broken for about two years now but it still functioned, today the machine finally gave in and so we need a new one.

 They went there and waited in line for like 2 hours to get into the store and to find an employee to buy it. I was surprised because they said they bought the dryer that the store out on display and got a discount for it, the store took like $150 off from the original price and with that money, they bought a 5-year warranty in case it breaks again lol.
