First notebook entry: Introducing myself

Hii!!!

My name is Anna. I am learning English because the next year I want to live in another country like England and moreover I consider that it´s it to be an important language form my professional future.

My native language is Spanish. I grew up in Spain, concretly specifically in Córdoba, Andalucía; it's a beautiful city so I recommend it completely!!

I really want to start to improve my English and help you improve your Spanish too. Come on!!!! :)

hello guys , I will be writing about random topics in order to practice my writing.

Hello guys!

Today I feel like writting about freezing cold weather. In some parts of the world it is very cold at this time. People can suffer really extreme weather conditions and they deal with this these bad conditions in their daily lifes day to day lives, so it's important to keep warm because people is are likely to get frostbite and hypothermia. Both of these conditions can mean death and in some extreme cases when people get frostbite the doctors have to remove the frostbitten areas (like fingers) in order to avoid prevent a worst worse gangrene infection.


Some recommendations can be are: Try to dress wear a scarf, hat, and gloves. Most of the time people think that if they dress wear heavy clothes they will keep warm. I don't agree with this. I guess it's better to dress a differents wear in light layers of light clothes in order to keep warming. Also try to stay dry to avoid getting sick. Another mistake that people do make its is to drinking alcohol to stay warm. This its is not going to help you because alcohol just makes you feel warm for a little while but the more you drink alcohol it the more your body loses the ability to hold retain heat. ["hold" is okay, but "retain" is even better here]

Nice job!


Bye guys, thanks so much for reviewing my writting :)

Formal email. "Please Help me"

Dear Ms. Susan [Apellido],

I appreciate your interest for me. I would like to take the chance to attend the meeting but I have a trouble with the meeting appointment because I may not be able to at that particular time, have a trouble with the meeting appointment because as my schedule at work is from 8:30 a.m. to 18:00 6 p.m. Dutch time.

[I understand what you mean by "Dutch time," but it sounds a bit odd to me. I would probably omit it entirely, unless you feel it's really necessary to clarify the time. In that case, I might put the time zone (CET) instead. (Madrid and the Netherlands are in the same time zone.)]

I could ask my company for free time time off to attend it the meeting but I would still need to put the interview off until February 14, 2013 at 16h00 4 p.m.Dutch time 

Please let me know if this new appointment date/time is possible convenient for you.

I have attached the completed application form filled out as you requested asked me.

Thank you for taking the time to write me. If you have any additional questions please feel free to contact me by email. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Jose

Nice job! Suerte con la entrevista :)
