- How the better way to welcome a visitor? Imagine that you work in a firm and a visitor arrives. How the better way to welcome a visitor? " - Hello, my name is XXX. What's your name? - Oh, it's nice to meet you, sir/miss. With who you wanna talk? - Ok, I'm gonna call him/her. Do you accept something to drink? Some water, a coffee? - Ok, just one minute, please." Is it good enough?** I think "what is the best way" is the correct sentence, haha.April 21, 201380
- About shyness. I'm a pretty quiet person. I don't like to talk very much, even in my native language. Sure, there's times that I talk a lot with my friends, nevertheless I feel that I talk much less than anyone of them. So I enjoy here to improve my English and create an account at Skype... Oh, my God! I think I just could stay there about five minutes! I totally stucked! And I'm pretty sure that it happens mainly because of video chat. My camera wasn't work (thanks God, haha), but I'm very shy and I didn't like to use that. I know this really disrupts my attempt to improve my English, but what can I do? Oh, I hate this shyness! I really want to improve my English and the skill that I need improve the most is the speaking... I think that if I don't consider the speaking my English is about avanced level, but my speaking is very poor, I think it's basic level! I'll ask a friend of mine if she wants to talk to me in English (because she's trying to improve her skills too), maybe this will be easier to me, but if anyone (mainly if you want to learn Portuguese) want to use the skype without video chat, just voice, I think that I could try.April 21, 201311
Cool, Mohammed! Math is very important, you know, without it, the other one sciences wouldn't exists as today (or even would be so much harder)!
Wow, basma! Loved what you said! Science really is life! And I loved the part "specially Chemistry and Biology" because I'm graduating in Chemistry, so... lol. But today I saw that all of them are really important because, in fact, all of them are connected and in some way this connection (the application of it) that improves our life :D
0 votedApril 21, 20130- About Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters. This is about one person between my favorite people in the world and my favorite band: Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters, ladies and gentleman, the greatest band of the world (in my opinion, of course)! Foo Fighters was the name that Dave Grohl chose to your band of just one man (himself). Some time after Kurt Cobain dies, Grohl decided that he shouldn't stop doing what he loved the most, doing music, that Kurt decided to finish his life, but he didn't need to choose the same way for his own life. So he would continue his life through music. And he did. He rented an studio and recorded his own tape with songs where he wrote the lyrics, sang and played all the instruments. And Foo Fighters was born. In fact, the first cd (self-intituled Foo Fighters) is this tape! So, he showed this tape to some friends that showed to other friends and everybody wanted to know who are the Foo Fighters (he chose this name and not show himself because he didn't wanna that people were influenced for already know him as Nirvana drummer) and people wanted to watch concerts. And because of this, Grohl needed to have a band. I don't remember if it's the correct, but I'm pretty sure that Pat Smear and Nate Mendel were at Foo Fighters since this beggining. Some members went out and Taylor Hawkins and Chris Shiflett entered then. This is, of course, a little summary about the beggining of Foo Fighters story... I've read the book 'This is a Call' that is about Dave Grohl's life and just loved the story about him and all his bands and projects (mainly Foo Fighters, of course). Still this year I wanna read the another one 'Nothing to lose' that is also about his life. I think he is an incredible person and I'm a big fan. One of the best days of my life was the day when I went in one of his concerts with Foo Fighters. It was last year at 'Lollapalooza Brasil'... this was the second time that Foo Fighters went to Brazil, the first one at Sao Paulo.. and I was there and so close to the stage! I really hope that they come back to Brazil as soon as possible, just can't wait for it.
