Hi, I'm from Chicago, in the United States. I've been trying to learn French for a long time, with limited success. I'm hoping italki will make it easy enough to actually speak French and keep motivated.

    Stress!

    I think this was the most stressful week of my life. Lately I've been feeling very tired and not wanting to do anything at work. Sometimes I try to listen to relaxing music to feel a little better, but I think it's worse because I get sleepy.. lol ...

    Anyway, what I need is a vacation!

     

    Excellent job.  I separated the first sentence into two because they referred to two separate time frames.

    a love story

    When Peter read the message from his friend, he knew there was no time to lose. He had no time to lose. Perhaps it was the last chance to spend all his life with his beloved Kathleen.

    That morning, she was reading the local newspaper when in the society section she read that the millionaire Andrew were was going to marry Kathleen. This was worse than going to the doctor and hearing that he had a mortal disease. But, he decided to fight. He put on his most elegant dress attire and shot off to talk to Kathleen.

    He analysed the situation. He knew that she loved him although he was very poor. On the other hand, Andrew was ugly but very rich. He was sweating and nervous when she arrived to at Kathleen's house. She appeared and Peter told her: 'Don't make a mistake. You don't love him.' And she said. 'I'm sorry. I love you but I'm going to have a safer life with him.' Peter's heart broke in that moment and he was never happy. Neither was Kathleen.

     

    Very nicely done.  I changed 'dress' to 'attire' because it sounded like he was putting on a woman's dress.

    What would happen if...?

    When you think about society and meditates on how people spend their free time in different activities, maybe you realize that money it's is more important than we believe. Then is when you mentally says the expression "If I were rich..." and immediately you starts to think about lot of crazy things (or maybe not too crazy) that you could do with money and life.

    So if I won a lot of money I’d probably get very crazy! First of all, I’m sure that a huge part of that money will would be for my family, especially my parents, who deserve a comfortable life like they gave it to me.

    Another part of it, maybe I'll save it for my future, and the rest of it I’d try to spend it for so that some of my little dreams comes true,  like traveling around the world with my best friends or buying a house where I could have a horse and ride it at on weekends (I love horses!) and dogs, I'd have dogs everywhere!

    I don’t know, I’d can I could do a lot of things with all this money but If I hadn't didn't have anyone with I could share it with, I'm sure that it would be very boring and that's exactly the point because... Where is the fun if you can't share it?

     

    Very nicely done, you have excellent English.

    An alternate meaning for getting a rise is 'to make someone upset'. We would usually say 'getting a raise'.

    One day to be with my ex-GF

    I said we knew each other at last time. I think most of about the time we were in the driving school, but when I was still happy. in initial part of time that we knew When we first met,i think thought a lot about what i think for our relationship. Should I tell her that I love her? But finally, I determined that I can't couldn't tell her, because i can't couldn't afford lots of dates,and I just satisfy the current live in the moment. So I think I'm so stupid right now, maybe I missed a good chance to get at happiness, but I did not do it. Maybe if I do,all things won't nothing will happen,Maybe she is not in abroad country. I'm so regretful about it, and I don't know what I'm going to do. Let it be beautiful.

    HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE?

    Have you ever wanted to change your life? I think yes. Everyone has thought about it though at least once. The question is what to do for about it. Because it's easily easier to say than really do it. Most people often think: "My life is boring. Probably I need to change something". And how We all know all our good intentions are forgetting forgotten the next day. But I've firmly decided to go all the way. First of all I've made up my mind about starting with my English skills. I'm learning English every day, listening to audio and looking up different expressions in English and sometimes watching a movie. So let's see what will happen in 3 months. ^_^

    first notebook

    Hi everyone I am a new in to italki and ... I wish to get a good things here.

    (it's hard to understand the last part, it's correct english, but it doesn't tell me much. I would probably say something like 'I hope to improve my english here.' for example.)
