I'm finally a premium member.

I wonder how long it has been since the premium member system was established on Lang-8. (I think using "establish" is strange in this case. what should I say instead of it?)

When Lang-8 announced about the premium member system, I thought I would join it soon. I'm not very interested in the benefits of a premium member, but I wanted to cooperate with Lang-8 on finance even a little, because I have been benefited by Lang-8 a lot.

However, I hadn't joined it by now. Paypal and Yahoo Wallet are used for paying premium fee, but I didn't have an account on either of them, and I didn't know what they were like. So I thought I should have checked them, but for some reason I felt that's a bother and put off it.

Today, I finally became a premium member.
As I said, I'm not so interested in the benefits, but I think the function of search "My journal entries" is very useful for me. Also the function of download PDF files of my entries seems to be good.

Hi Sand-san. Good to see that you felt the same. I also wanted to contribute to lang-8 as it has helped me find some friends who I can chat with each week to help them improve their English and for me to improve my Japanese.

Martyn,

Yes, I really think that it was goo to join Lang-8! I want to improve my conversation skill so I should chat with friends like you. However, my Skype doesn't work at the moment... I should re-install it soon.
Thank you for your corrections and comment!
