Do you like films? (poster)
Are you a film enthusiast? Do you enjoy discussing plots? Are you looking for a place to (share points of view) share/exchange opinions/views and make good friends? The College Film Club is (waiting) just the place OR the perfect place for you.
WHAT EXACTLY IS THE FILM CLUB?
One of the most unsatisfying (contrary to the first responder, I think 'unsatisfying' is a better word than 'unsatisfactory'. 'Unsatisfactory' seems to denote more of a failure to meet expectations, but 'unsatisfying' denotes that that the enjoyment is compromised. The expensive tickets compromises the enjoyment of watching a film in cinema rather than causes the experiencing of watching a film to fall short of expectations.) aspects of watching a film at the cinema is probably the high cost of tickets. (Don't worry, every Monday evening different kinds of films are played at the College Theatre admission is, of course, free for all visitors.) But not to worry, for admission to film screenings every Monday evening at the College Theatre is free for all visitors.
In addition, you will have the opportunity to take part in English discussions (in English) after every film, thereby improving your speaking proficiency and enabling you to share (sharing) your ideas with people from all over the world.
A GREAT WAY TO MAKE FRIENDS
Fancy a cup of tea? In our coffee bar, which is open late from 8 pm to midnight, every visitor has, at their disposal, a large range of cold and hot beverages to choose from. Our lounge is the perfect place to make friends and have a good time with great company.
Once a month, we celebrate the Cinephile's Night, inviting special guests from the world of entertainment. Actors like Jonathan Rhys Meyers (The Tudors) or Liam Neeson have already talked with us about interesting aspects of films and plots.
FORTHCOMING EVENTS
We are always planning new events in our club. We invite you to join us and to take part in future talks with Sir Sean Connery (Next September) or in a special trip to the Studio Aka (animation studio) based in London on 14th August.----

Three years ago while in the university, I met a handsome boy. At that point/During that time In this moment I was a recently single and he was studying in the same university. We both dreamed to of being teachers. We started to talk and bit by bit we fell in love.
In principle [I don't think you mean this], We were very happy, and we had a lot of things in common. Our friends of in university were the same, and for his reason we always to go went out on to the town together. I was fullhappy/fulfilled, and I felt that he was going to love me for of mi life.
Our familys families were very happy and I liked to go going to his house and play playing with his little cousins. I was very proud of him, and I love [I don't know if you mean 'loved' instead...?] him with all my strength [saying 'heart' is more common].
Suddenly, his character changed. He started to go out going out alone with his friends by himself, and he left me. It was then that when I lose lost myself.
I cried for was crying during four or five months, while and he met a girl in two months. When I got to know about it, it caused me to be depressed depression in me. I needed to go going to a psychologist.I could not take it anymore. He It seemed like he wasnt worryworried.
A year later, for by accident We are on the right track [Not sure what you mean... sorry], and he sent me a message to my mobile phone. He felt the need to the necessity of having new about me [Not sure what you mean. Maybe "get to know me again"?]. Little a by little, we re-established contact and we saw each other seven or nine times while he continued with his girlfriend.
This fact produce upsets me. It is very sad that two persons who don't want to be together cannot forget each other cant get forgot.
We know that we have become inconsistent with each other, but them What can do relating to the latter,? what can we do about it?----
Hello Irene, I hope that things will get better for you. All the best!
0 votedFebruary 5, 20141Why yesterday I went to sleep go later to sleep...
Yesterday iswas a special day for almost all people who live in the USA [Estados Unidos de América is known as the United States of America in English]. what is living in EEUU, Yesterday was the Superbowl. In Spain, not many people watch it is not very watched. I think this is bybecause of two reasons, the first reason is that the timetable of the match was at a time that was in an hour not very goodfavourable for people of here. It started at 00:30 of the night and a lot of people iswere asleep sleeping at this hour. And the second reason, which I believe is more important, and for me, the main reason is that American Football is not very followedpopular here.
I don't understand this second reason, because I like American Football and yesterday I viewedwatched the match and I enjoyed it very much. I would likeprefer if that American Football was more followedpopular and received more coverage and more commented in the news, but inthe news only is comment reported one match, the match of yesterday, the yesterday's superbowl, and sometimes the news focused more on the comment in news is what the singer did or singer showed in the half time.
I knewwas introduced to American Football a lot ofmany years ago, owing to / because of when here, in Barcelona was a team called "Barcelona Dragons" in Barcelona, which introduced American Football to then some people knew American Football, As a result/Consequently, and some people started to like American Football. Nowadays, this team disappearretired, but still there are people that have started loving American football since then, and now I still love American Football.----
Hope this helped! :) All the best with your studies!

Como por ejemplo, Singapur tiene comida japonesa, comida china, comida malaya, comida india etc. Además, hay la cocina fusión, tal como la cocina nyonya. El plato nacional de Singapur es el chili de cangrejo. Comida se sirve en muchos marcos diferentes. Los restaurantes son comunes, pero Singapur tiene los centros de comida también. Hay muchos puestos pequeños que vender platos diferentes en estos centros. La comida es barata, así que muchos vecinos comen aqui. [The food in Singapore is very delicious.

February 2, 2014153 This thing called Italki
I found this page from a the reference of a friend here in chile.
I was interested in to finding a place where I would be able to talk in english because here the chances of doing so here are very few. [even better: there is little opportunity/chance to do so here]
I tried before pages like The mixxer but it wasn't until I logged on into Italki that I was wasn't able to find someone to talk with.
Here I made a few acquaintance but the number appears to be inhave rapidly grown so my chances to practice are much better [even better: there are more people to practice with OR there is a greater chance of finding someone to practice with] and I'm really happy for that.
The other thing that really surprised me was the chance to find professional teachers to afor generally very fair rates in general, so you can find professional help to specifically improve specifically the issues that you think are needed need to be addressed.
My gold goal here is to master the english language.
By the way, this is my first note so feel free to correct me to the last letter.
Best regards to all and good luck in your studies----
Hi Alfonso, hope this helped. All the best with your studies :)
0 votedFebruary 2, 20141What it means to be being an Italian
Being an Italian means to drink a coffee everyday (altought I don't drink it at all! ahah)
Being an Italian means to live between wonderful churches and beautiful monuments.
Being an Italian means to eat a pizza every week-end.
We have a lots of problems too, for example we have unemployment uneployement and this is not a good thing, but fortunately our country is still a beautiful place.
When we are forced to go to another country we feel sad, because ours could be one of the best country in the world but the Euro and many other problems kill us. It is an injustice, but for the moment we can't do anything... it's hot time Do you mean 'a bad time'? for Italy and I think you know it.
Being an Italian means to speak a dialect; there are many dialects. We can speak Italian but also our own regional dialect. For instance: a Neapolitan, which means he lives in Naples, can speak Italian but also the Neapolitan dialect. I speak it because I'm Neapolitan :-). It is a very nice language, a very traditional and musical language.
Being an Italian means to be free; a lot of country countries are not free.
Being an Italian means enjoying life, we call this "la bella vita"; in English I think it can be translated like as "good life" or "beautiful life".
Being an Italian also means to live in a historic, artistic and poetical country.
In the end All in all, being an Italian is so wonderfull! :-D
Thanks for reading me; see you soon!---
Hope this helped. Italy sounds like a really beautiful place :) I'm actually travelling there in May!
0 votedFebruary 1, 20144Travelling Around The World!
Hi folks,
Today I'd like to tell you about one of my principal interests: knowing different cultures around the world.
Why am I so interested to know other countries, other langauges and so on? I can answer you because knowing other cultures opens the mind: it is just a fact, but that is not all.
I'm attracted by to Eastern countries especially; they are so different from my traditional accustomed habits.
English is the first foreign language I'm learning but my wish is to learn as many languages as I can. For example I'd like to learn Spanish and French and I'm interested also in Hindi and in a lot of other languages! (but I don't think I want to learn eachall of them!)
I like Italki because it allows me to meet a lot of very good people infrom all over the world.
I think that's all for today.
Good-bye! :))---
Hi Kyos! I totally agree with what you wrote, and for the very same reason, I am attracted to the West. :) All the best with your English!
