You did your best in the lesson again. I guess learning Japanese is great brain exercise, it is very very hard for everyone. Your new challenge will bring a good result for you!

    The anniversary sale of the department store  <font style="background-color: yellow;">This is correct but I would say "The department store anniversary sale".</font>

    The department store is having <font style="background-color: yellow;">an</font> anniversary sale now. I spent a large amount of money there for cosmetics and skin care products. The <strike>salespersons</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">salespeople</font> always have good reasons <font style="background-color: yellow;">to</font> persuade you to buy products. Luckily, I had a lot of coupons so at least I didn't spend the real money. Since I was 25 years old, my skin has become different from <font style="background-color: yellow;">the</font> past, being sensitive and easy to have pimple<font style="background-color: yellow;">s </font>and acne. So I try to find <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>the</strike></font> suitable skin products all the time. This time I decide<font style="background-color: yellow;">d</font> to give Lancome a try. Their <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>essence is </strike></font> <font style="background-color: yellow;">products are</font> <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>noted</strike></font> known for repairing, moisturizing and activating. <font style="background-color: yellow;">I hope</font> <strike>Hope</strike> to have <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">steady and </font></strike> beautiful skin again!


    Actually, you did very well Cindy. I wasn't sure what you wanted to say with "steady".Instead of steady, which means "not moving" or "constant", maybe you could say "clear" or "healthy". Also, the plural of "person" is "people". I hope this helps. Richard

    "good" is an adjective, and "well" is an adverb. Use "good" with nouns. For example, good car, good book, good job, good food, etc. Use "well" with verbs. For example, works well, runs well, speaks well, etc. So, use "as good as' with nouns. For example, "My car is as good as yours.", "My new job is not as good as my old job". And use "as well as" with verbs. For example, "you speak English as well as I do", or "I want to speak Japanese as well as you do".

    Maria, "don't" and "nothing" are negative words. You have to remember a <font style="background-color: yellow;">basic rule that you can only use one negative word</font> in an English sentence. In Spanish it's ok to say "No quiero nada." But in English you cannot say "I don't have nothing." This sentence means "I have something". You have to say "I don't have anything". That's like saying in Spanish "No quiero algo". It may sound strange in Spanish, but you do have to practice it and get used to it. Good luck. Richard

    "to be" is ser o estar, so you have to keep "to be" together so you have "estar disponible". In your first sentence "going to" means you are going someplace. e.g. I'm going to the market. So the first sentence doesn't work. The second sentence is just fine, "Voy a estar disponible". Keep up the good work.

    No, they are not the same. "I'll see you to the door" means that you are done visiting me and you are going to leave now. This means that I will go with you to the door as you leave. "I'll see you off at the door" means that you go ahead to the door alone and wait a minute and then I will come to see at the door you before you leave. The part that says "I'll see you off" means that you are going to leave soon. I hope this helps you.

    Today (7/04/2016)

    Hello again friends!!!

    My day was very interesting and exciting for me. This morning I got up at seven o´clock (<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">p.m?</font></strike> 07:00 <font style="background-color: yellow;">a.m.</font>), it was awful because I love sleeping jejejeje. Then I <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">took</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">ate</font> breakfast with one <font style="background-color: yellow;">cup of</font> coffe<font style="background-color: yellow;">e</font> and one <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">pate</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">piece of (or slice of)</font> toast. When I finished my breakfast I <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">drave till</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">drove to</font> my university to <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">listen</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">attend</font> my class. In the middle of <font style="background-color: yellow;">the</font> morning, when my teacher of Intensive Cure United <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">subject</font></strike> arrived <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">to</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">at</font> my class, he said "I <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">give us your notes about</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">am going to give you your grades for the last exam</font>", when he <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">pronunciated</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">said</font> my name, my heart was beating a lot in my <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">breast</font></strike> chest but when I heard my <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">note</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">grade</font> my heart relax<font style="background-color: yellow;">ed</font> because <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">of</font></strike> I <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">have</font></strike> had passed my exam!!!!!

    Finally, when <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">all</font></strike> my class ended I <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">go</font></strike> went out with my classmates to <font style="background-color: yellow;">a</font> bar to drink some beer and some "tapas".

    The Best of Me

    Please don't take the meaning of my notebook's title literally<font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>, </strike>.</font>  I am not here to tell about my self. "The Best of Me" is<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;"> a</font></strike> the title of my favorite novel by Nicholas Sparks<font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>, </strike> .</font> I bought it two years ago maybe(<font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>can not</strike></font>  <font style="background-color: yellow;">cannot </font>remember the exact time). There are three main reasons that made me <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">bought</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">buy</font> that novel<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">,</font></strike> . <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">the</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">The</font> first reason is because I love reading(<font style="background-color: yellow;">novels especially</font>), the second is, of course<font style="background-color: yellow;">,</font> the author<font style="background-color: yellow;"><font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>, </strike></font>.</font>  <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">before</font></strike> Before I mention the third one, you guys have to know that the novel is in English <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">edition</font></strike>(I am from Indonesia, which means all books here <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>were sell by</strike></font> <font style="background-color: yellow;">are sold in the</font> Indonesia<font style="background-color: yellow;">n</font> language<font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>, </strike>.</font> <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>however</strike></font> <font style="background-color: yellow;">However,</font> sometimes they provide the original language version). So obviously the third reason is because I would like to learn English. Back to the title<font style="background-color: yellow;">, </font>"The Best of Me"<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">,</font></strike><font style="background-color: yellow;"> .</font> <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>even</strike></font> <font style="background-color: yellow;">Even</font> though the three reasons sound beautiful, wonderful, and conclusive<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">ly</font></strike>, <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>as this</strike></font>  <font style="background-color: yellow;">at the</font> time I wrote this notebook, the novel <font style="background-color: yellow;">was</font> just sitting at the bottom of <font style="background-color: yellow;">the</font> bookshelves along with other novels(untouched and neglected). My poor novel, from now on I will start to read<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">ing</font></strike> you again :D.
    That's <font style="background-color: yellow;">it</font> for today, thank you for reading my notebook, please feel free to correct it ^^.

    My british professor

    This week a british couple came to my institute. They are Nathan and Siobhan from Bournemouth in the south of England. It's a city with many institutes that <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">learn</font></strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">teach</font> English to foreigners from all over the world. They say it's a <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">wonderfull</font></strike> wonderful place with a long coast, about 10km where you can <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">fell</font></strike> feel a fresh breeze, and there are many piers <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">on</font></strike> there.
    They are ver<font style="background-color: yellow;">y</font> friendly and polite<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">ly</font></strike>. The man is in charge of our class.
    The first class was about his introduction<font style="background-color: yellow;">.<strike>,</strike></font> <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">he</font></strike> He asked us some vocabulary. It was interesting because we learn<font style="background-color: yellow;">ed</font> about his culture.
    The second one was about how to <font style="background-color: yellow;">be</font> polite<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">ly</font></strike>. It was an amazing class and very funny. He is an excellent actor<font style="background-color: yellow;">.<strike>,</strike></font> E<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">e</font></strike>very single situation was <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">actuated</font></strike> performed by him and he demanded fast answers and we were very nervous. But we could <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>say</strike></font> <font style="background-color: yellow;">give</font> good answers.

    Can someone correct my text? Thnx
