    Favoutite Rock and Gothic music

    Music is one of my favourite things. and I like listening to music, watching musicals and going to the concerts. Moreover I also play the guitar, so music is an essential part of my life. But most of all I prefer Rock and Gothic music with gentler sounds which is played by Nightwish, Evanescence, Within Temptation, Lumen and Aria.
    Guitars are used a lot in rock music that I enjoy. Sometimes it also includes symphony orchestra and some unusual instruments such as organ or harp so this music is active, magic and with has pleasant harmony.
    Besides that, I really enjoy meaningful texts lyrics.  I think that exactly Rock and Gothic music have intellectual (spiritual?) directions value and can inspire and affect me in a positive way.
    For the first time I heard this music for the first time when my friend and I decided to change exchange our music players. He said that it would great if we listened to each other's favourite groups of each other. I used to prefer pop music but I was am so pleased that I changed my taste in music.

    I Take a Day Off

    To my surprise, I take a day off, even though I had prepared today's lunch yesterday.
    I think maybe I'm so greedy that I hope to rest three days a week.
    From the vantage point of the present, my grandparent's generation only rested one day per week.
    When I saw the weather forecast in the morning , it said it should be sunny today. I was so delighted about that.
    But I haven't seen the sun up to now.
    The haze hanging over this city, it makes us melancholy...
    I would will go back to work tomorrow, to do what I don't like to do, to smile to whom I inwardly dislike inward.  (or you can leave out "will" in this case, and just say "I go back to work tomorrow, ..." )

    When will it be over?

    The 31st Day

    I will meet a friend and eat dinner tonight.
    It was Hawaii that I first met her.
    We were traveling alone each other.
    I looked for the person who went to Hawaii at the same time on the internet.

    ----

    Good English, 

     

    I will meet with a friend for dinner tonight.

    I was in Hawaii that I first met her.

    We were both travelling alone.

    I looked on the internet for the person who went to Hawaii at the same time as me.

    Yes, this a great way to learn.  But you must have good subtitles.    I do not recommend most subtitles found on the internet, because they are often not good, and made to go with pirated movies.    But the original Engligh subtitles made by the movie producer on a DVD or other source are usually good.

     

    Even if you don't know many words your ear will become acustomed to the rhythm of English, and your mind will automatically start trying hear words that you know.
