    The Cinema La Esperanza

    In Sant Vicent del Raspeig, a small village near Alicante, there is an antique cinema called "La Esperanza". It has been operating since 1950.  It is a very successful family business due to the affordable price and the service they offer to the public.
    The most charming thing is you can see the films outdoors on a terrace in the summer.  The terrace has quite a few chairs and tables so food can be eaten comfortably. We are allowed to bring food from home and many families come with their cool boxes, bags and so on. By the time the audience stare at the scenes on the screen they are eating quietly. The absence of noise seems unbelievable. In addition, there is a stand selling drinks and fresh home-made sandwiches.

    Tickets cost only 3 euros as opposed to 10 euros in the mainstream cinemas.  Also the inexpensive bar service means families can afford to see the current films on a big screen. In fact, you can stay for an unlimited time in the auditorium and take advantage of seeing more than one film. The only inconvenience is the plastic chairs that make it difficult to remain sitting down for long periods of time. I would recommend carrying a pillow to make the situation better.

    All of these advantages allow this cinema to have a considerable audience. As a result the owners make enough profit to make ends meet. Therefore, everyone is happy and thankful. If I lived nearer I would be a regular customer. I only have been once over the summer and I really enjoyed the experience.

    I want to work in USA

    Well, I want to work in USA. I am a very competent SAP Consultant and I think that I can find a good job, but I don't have the required proficiency speaking fluent English.  My main problem is when speaking, I need a lot of practice. I have the bad habit of translating Spanish to English on the fly. I need to think in English.

    Regards.

    Having a headache

    This is a story about a girl named Mary.
    Mary has a headache and feels dizzy.
    Therefore, she decides to see a doctor.
    The doctor thinks Mary might have a brain tumor after examining her and thinks she needs to undergo surgery right now or she will feel worse.
    Her skull is opened during the operation.
    The doctor fixed the bad part of her brain and asked her to spend at least a week in hospital until she feels better.
    Now she is completely recovered.
    Modern medicine saved her.

    On another day

    Every time I try to see you I understand that LADY LIFE disagrees with me. You know it's hard to be far away from you. But you! You don't do anything to help me. I feel like you want to break my heart apart, make a hole in it. I know you are a bad, bad boy, but why dont you want to come to me. I know you liked my sweet face, my beatiful black and blue dress. But I also know you have a girlfriend and a dozen girls in store. I want to say you can do anything you want but you can't always make me depend on you, you're not my DRUG. In a week you'll be NOTHING, NOTHING to me. There will be no place in my heart for you, no place in my brain for you, no place in my BEAUTIFUL LIFE FOR YOU. I'll begin my new life, turn a new page WITHOUT YOU, without your stupid words and stupid funs, without your black eyes and BIG BLACK BROWS. I will do it, yes, YEAH! And how? Don't depend on you believing or not believing in me. I don't care. I can do it in a week... but not now. Now I want a day without thinking about you. Want a night without dreaming about you. I just want to know, to understand your real senses about me. I wanna save my little heart from your levity. Because I know YOU'RE NOT THE MAN THAT I NEED, YOU'RE JUST SOMEBODY'S REAL BOYFRIEND, AND I'M THE NEXT TOY FOR YOU...

    4. My Family

    My father is the head of our family. His name is Gatot. He was born in Bogor on October, 27th 1960. This October, my father is going to be 53 years old. He is a civil servant in the Forestry Department. He is a smart man. He used to teach Math for me when I was a kid. He doesn't have any hobbies but eating. He loves eating

    My mother's name is Dwi. She is a lovely mom. She is very firm. She was born in Magetan, East Java. She is 49 years old. Last week was her birthday. She is also a civil servant like my father. She works in a same Department but in a different place. While my father works in Yogyakarta, my mother works in Jakarta. My mother loves gardening and keeping a pet. She has a fish.

    I am the oldest child. I have three sisters. I don't have any brothers. My sisters names are Gita, Hana and Hasna. Gita is the second child after me. She is 20 years old now. She is an undergraduate in Management. Hasna is the youngest child in my family. She is 14 years old.  She is a junior high school student. Hana is the third child. She is studying in High School. Although I have three sisters only two live with me. Hana doesn't stay at our home. She is in my aunt's home. She has lived there since she was a baby.
    We are pretty similar in our face but we have different characters. Gita and Hasna tend to be quiet but I am not. All of my sisters are the best.

    Hi everybody =)

    This is my first post.
    My name is Veronica.  I'm a designer and an artist. I love to create something with any materials.  I am preparing a portfolio with graphic art, handmade and photo art. In three days I have an exam. I am a little bit worried.
    As well as the exam I want to tell you about my dog - Nishta. In hindi it means - allegiance. She is a kind and energetic dog but a little chicken-hearted. Here is her photo.

    Learning Spanish

    Learning Spanish is a little more complicated than learning English because Spanish has a lot of grammar rules. But dont be discouraged because it can be so easy if you are on the correct way, and what is the correct way? Well no matter where you come from or what youre native language is, all of us learn the same way.  When we were kids we first listened to people talking.  Then we try to say our first words. In the kindergarden and 1st and 2nd grades we learn the vowels and the alphabet.  Then we learn to write.  We start to write single words first then simple sentences.   Then we learn more complicated sentences and then the final step, we learn the grammar.
    So if you want to learn the easy way you must follow the next steps:
    1.-listen
    2.-talk
    3.-write
    4.-learn and understand the grammar and spelling

    That's my way to teach people Spanish but of course anybody can use whatever they want.

     

    Greetings from Mexico.
