    First time

    Ok, let's start! I have tried so many times to learn seriously english seriously, but I've ever always failed. The problem is that I've always studied from books and I've never done practised with someone. I will be very grateful to anyone who will connect to me. I consider myself friendly, calm and quietly fun. I like knowing getting to know new people and founding finding out about new subjects.

     

    Great work Guido. You are off to a great start with your English.

    My best friend

    My best friend is Vera. She is a beautiful girl with long straight hair, always being thoughtful and getting insight into and showing care for others' feelings. We became best friends for that because we have a lot in common. For instance, both of us are crazy about ping-pong ball.When we are in have spare time, we would often spend time practicing playing ping-pong ball and learning from each other. Sometimes we learn skills from those famous players by watching their games. I feel very lucky to have a friend like her.

     

    Great work Kris. Not much correction needed. Don't forget to put a space after a full stop. Keep practicing!

    How do you handle stress and pressure?

    In my last work job (Or, 'At my last job') I was used to working under pressure every day. We always had too much work to do in only 8 hours so we were obligated to be well organized and we really had must to attach assign importance for to all of our duties. All tasks assigned to me had an equal importance so i have been had to adjusted to working quite quickly and efficiently. Sometimes we paid to people really huge large amounts. (Perhaps you are trying to say, 'We were paid really large amounts by people. Meaning is unclear). We had to be focused on every things which we were doing.
    Moreover, there was were so many sudden cases. (Perhaps you could say 'urgent cases'). For example, imagine that you’re doing something very important and you have to finish up this case in 1 hour. and Suddenly your boss told tells you that you now you have to do the other thins something else which is as important as the things what you’re doing now! Sometimes it was difficult to support achieve but anyway I always managed to do both anyway.
    I passed by managed so many stresfulls stressful situations that I cant say: yes, I do very well in stresfulls stressful and sophisticated complex situations.

     

    Very well written Aleksandra. Keep up the great work.

    Russia

    Russia is a great country but it's it have the has shortcomings:
    - It's a cold country.
    - Our government don't doesn't have a dialogue with the people.
    - Our legislation don't doesn't have a law which protects animals rights. It is important for to me.
    - Yeah, we have free medicine but it the medicine is badly bad. Because the doctors have low salary and so they are very lazy. As a result they are negligent to in their work.

    That's all.

     

    Good work Paul.

    Life-or-Death Rumble tumble (rumble refers to a sound, for example a stomach can rumble. I think you mean tumble, which is a synonym of fight. Good title.)

    The other day I bought some aromatic pet-friendly pyrethrum (this is a scientific word and is not used in everyday speech) coilsthat have been grown without agricultural chemicals. It is an environmentally friendly chrysanthemum that the sent scent (as you mentioned) also has an the effect on of keeping insects away.

    Right before I got these coils, my patience was running wearing pretty thin with those mosquitoes which were prowling (prowling is what a cat or a theif might do. Some suggestions for mosquitoes would be buzzing or flying) about for their sustenance. They were eating me alive and I lost count of the number of bites. (great use of expression here)
    They truly pissed me off when after I noticed that my right cheek was bleeding and my face looks looked like so an ugly zombie. It made me get ready to have a life-or-death rumble tumble with them.

    I am less concerned about whether my dogs get mosquito bites or not.
    it's This is because they already had a heartworm testing done and they both have taken take the best preventive medication regularly.

    Anyway, I set up a coil on a/the shelf in the entrance and burnt it now. Let's see how it works they are from now on.
    Thank you for reading this and I would really appreciate it if you would help me with my notebook entry.

    Great work Ai. You use expressions well and have quite a varied vocabulary.

    Life things

    I love the United States where the majority of people are so kind and friendly. Everything is new and so different than from my country, and although I like it here this is the most hard hardest challenge that ever did and I have ever faced. Now I'm here stopping my life to learn a new language and continue.

    A note about procrastination while writing working papers

    Once I had to write a document, which I don’t like didn't want to write. Fortunately, I had no exact deadline, so I procrastinated from doing this work for several weeks. My boss sometimes asked me about this paper, I assured him that I had worked on it. But this wasn’t really the truth… Every next day I hated this document more and more, but it was still in his it's infancy.
    I’ve decided to ask a piece some of advice from my more experienced colleague – what does he usually do when he doesn’t like to write a document or when he doesn’t know exactly what a document should contain?
    His answer has seriously changed my attitude to such an activity activities like as writing documents.
    He said that when you had to write a document (especially a document you didn’t don't like to work on), you should do it as fast as you could can. This is because your can write your real thoughts to about this question you can formulate for a over a few working hours of working and after than you decided to invent something brilliant.
    The more longer you keep the document in your work the more complete higher quality document your boss will expects from you. As far as you do not like to look like an incompetent employee, so you try to improve somethingyour work, but don’t know how to do this and just play for time. Most likely when you will have sent send your non-perfect document after a month of «hard work» to your boss he will not appreciate it. Time will play against you in this situation.
    The more correct approach is to write down your thoughts and ideas and sent send it out to your boss with an explanation that it is not the final version of the document, but just a draft to discuss together.
    Alternatively or at the same time, you can sent send your draft out to your colleagues and arrange a meeting with to brainstorming.
    In both of these situations, the chief boss and associates will not wait for something amazing from you, but the your work on document will be more efficient. A hundred to one the document will be finished in a shorter period.

    Be gratefull for corrections and your ideas on this topic :)

     

    Excellent work Natalya. You have a good grasp of English expressions and vocabulary.
