- REVIEW I would like to make a review about the last CD I bought: Mechanical Bull by Kings of Leon. This is the sixth studio album published by the band. As they are well known by their special southern sound, you can appreciate their particular style on every song. There are many memorable songs that can make you feel like if you were in the middle of a rodeo contest. Furthemore, most of the songs in the album usually change your mood and they turn you into a new sphere. Although one of the most important aspect is Caleb Followill’s voice, basslines and drumbeats also need to be mentioned. I would definitely recommend this album, not just to Kings of Leon fans, but also for all rock music’s lovers. Because what is fascinating about Mechanical Bull is its musical quality.February 18, 201440
Estoy aquí sentado escuchando.
Estoy aquí sentado escuchando a dos hombres que están hablando sobre diferentes tipos de trabajos. No me estoy de acuerdo con muchas cosas que SE HAN DICHO. [You could also say "Muchas cosas que SE HABÍAN DICHO" and it is correct too if you write "Muchas cosas que han/habían sido dichas" but we don't really use that way in a common conversation]
I'm sitting here listening to two men talking about different types of work. I not agree with many of the things that have been said.[If you are listening to them right now, is it correct to use Have been said for something they just said?]
Nice!!! keep up the good work!
0 votedFebruary 14, 20142- Write an Email Hello Alex! I'm really suprised about your e-mail, just a few days ago this idea crossed my mind. I'll be definitely there! Don't worry about that, I'll send you some videos from YouTube for you to get to know them better. I've always loved rock music, but they made me realize how much I need it in my life. They're awesome musicians and really funny guys! You will set your heart on them! I would rather be stood up in the front row than sat on the grandstand. It's really exciting to share the experience with the rest of the crowd! I'll be pleased to spend the next day with your parents we could have lunch together and then go for a walk. I know how they love long walks. All the best, HelenaFebruary 9, 201420
- Memories Once upon a time there was a little girl who always liked to ride her bike really fast, even though her dad always told her to be careful and to ride slower. That little girl was me. At the time I didn’t really care about my body safety. I now realize how naïve and dumb I was. I clearly remember the day when I was in the top of the hill and my dad said “girls, be careful! There’s a lot of gravel in the street” My cousin and I looked to each other and laughed. “I’ll go first” – I said. I started to go down the hill, fast. I still remember the wild wind on my face. Then there was the gravel. One of the wheels started to move out of control and my right feet got stuck. The wheel begun to burn my skin and I fall to the ground. I woke up in the hospital. My dad was holding my hand waiting for me to open my eyes. He could say “I told you so”, but he didn’t. He just smiled. That is something I would always remember.February 1, 201430
- "Write your first letter to a Penfriend" Dear Michael, You are my first penfriend in a long time so forgive me if I don’t remember how to do this correctly. My name is Helena and I was born in Galicia. I’m 23, I’m not very tall and I have green eyes. My hair is dark blonde and most of times it is really messy. I’m learning English because I think is a really unique way to be able to embrace many languages and cultures. Where are you from? I’m an Optometrist and I have been working in an Optical shop for almost two years now. What are your plans for the future? I like all kind of animals. Except for insects… I have a pet and I really love “him”. My dog is called ‘Son’, which means Sound in Galician (you see? My family and I are really into music). He is a Spanish Mastiff and he is really big! Do you have any pets? I really hope you liked my letter, as I said before, I’m not used to write them anymore. I’ll be waiting for your answer. Yours sincerely, HelenaJanuary 30, 201440
Deseo
Tienes Nunca piensas sobre un tiempo en tu vida cuando habías no tenías nada y no querías nada?
[You could also write (And it is maybe more correct) Has pensado alguna vez sobre...? Or even "Alguna vez has pensado sobre...?"]
Hoy en día la gente se sientan siente que ellos debemos tener de todos. Un vez, hace mucho tiempo, un gran hombre dijo "trabaje duro y recibirá todo lo que desea"
Él salió su officina ese mismo día y después murió. ¿Lo Qué pasó? No es un secreto que trabajó muy largo muchas horas y eso es lo que lo mató.It would be also correct if you write "y eso lo mató".
[Also for very long days... mmm... You could say "trabajó muchas horas", "trabajó muy duro", "trabajó demasiado" or "trabajó muchos días". All of them are correct ;)]
Have you ever thought of a time in your life when you had nothing and wanted nothing. Today people feel that they must have everything. Once a long time ago, a great man said "work hard and you will get everything you want"
He left his office that same day, and died. What happened? It's no secret that he worked very long days and that's what killed him.Very good, keep up the good work!

0 votedJanuary 28, 20142Qué significa realmente "hablar con fluidez"?
Después de haber aprendido español durante un poco menos de un año, tengo ganas de aprender otro idioma. No sé cual todavía, pero a lo mejor el alemán. Mi única reserva es que no quiero pasar a otro idioma a menos que hable yo español "con fluidez". No quiero empezar demasiado pronto, y mezclarlos en mi cabeza... Por eso, me pregunto ¿cuando se puede decir verdaderamente que hablas un idioma perfectamente? Supongo que es discutible, y que depende de tu propia definición de "hablar con fluidez". En todo caso, si quieres de verdad aprender otro idioma, no cuesta nada intentarlo.
You don't need to write the "yo" because you're writting about your experience. So you can omit it.
Same happens with the "un". Is not incorrect, but you could omit it ;)
Perfect writting.
