- Tanto neve dappertutto Ci sono tanto neve nella mia città adesso. Le strade sono piccole piccole - solo una macchina può andare. Ieri, sono stato così stanca di guidare nel neve e traffico, che ho provato camminare un chilometro nel sentiero di bici. Prendevo mie figlie al piscino per lezioni di nuotare. normalmente, questo sentiero è libero da neve, ma ho dimenticato che c'è un secondo sentiero quello che non libero. È stato necessario per me tirare il mio passeggino con due bambine attraverso quasi un metro di neve. Ho sentito molto stupida. Quando ritornavamo a casa, mi ho accorto di monti di neve quelli che al ogni angolo. C'era una stradina molto piccola - per una persone - attraverso il monte. La maggiore figlia mi ha aiutato sollevare il passeggino. Qualche volte eravamo andate in strada. Fortunatamente, siamo arrivate sane. Ma non vedo l'ora per il neve sciogliere. Il neve sarebbe divertentissimo, ma non nella città, e non quando devo guidare.February 25, 201570
Edith Piaf at a bathroom queue - Challenge one text every day
Trainning reported speach
I never told you that when I was on holiday last year I met Edith Piaf at a bathroom queue at a café in Paris. I told her I liked her songs and that I had learnt French listening to them. She said I spoke French quite well. Then I asked whether she could sing a song to me but she said she couldn’t because she wasn’t who I thought she was. I asked for an autograph but she said I was crazy, Edith Piaf had DIED! Then she went inside the bathroom. I think she was rude to me, but MAYBE THAT'S her normal temper, genius artists are always strange. Anyway I am very happy I’ve met her.

A friend ( Luiza Zerlotini) and I are going to write one text per day for one year! Please help us with corrections, suggestions, ideas. =D0 votedFebruary 25, 20150I'm going to GO crazy!
During Chinese New Year vacation, my relatives will always ask me those questions such as "Do you have a boyfriend?", "When will you get married?", "How about your salary?", And then start to give you a lot of opinions.
I know they just want to make me be better, but I have too MANY relatives, that means the same question will BE repeatED for more then 10 times. And they seem TO HAVE Amnesia together, because they already asked me THESE questions for every years since I graduated from University.0 votedFebruary 24, 20150something about Honduras, and me.
Well I'm 23 years old, and I am from Honduras. Honduras is a little country located in the middle of Central America. Our population is just 8 million of people. We have eighteen states, in the north of Honduras you will find the caribbean which touches the northern coast of Honduras and in the south is the pacific ocean. We also have 7 ethnic groups: Garifunas,Misquitos,Tulupanes,Chortis,lencas,Pech and Tawahkas.
I am really proud of being Honduran. I've been learning english on my own for a little over 1 year by watching some english courses on internet, listening to music, and reading. I decided to come here in order to find someone to practice english with, since in my country there aren't quite a lot of people interested in helping me out, but well every single day I try to learn new words and phrases everyday in order to speak and someday I get fluent.
I don't let a day goes by that I haven't learnd something new, although once in a while I have a hard time understanding and pronuncing some words. I keep my mood up and carry on with the goal I am holding in my heart, because not matter how far fetched it might be, I'm hundred percent sure I'll be able to pull through, I don't care if people label me as a failure just because I didn't have the oportunites that they had. I'll keep on standing up for what I believe, and here is what I know: that all of us can choose our reality by choosing our future, but we need to get the energy drainers our of our lives and when that happen what we will realize is that we have the power that we can't even begin to imagine.God bless ya'll. Please I'd really appreciate if someone can point out my mistakes.

In Bulgaria the most common legal psychoactive substance is the alcohol (ethyl alcohol, ethanol). It’s an active ingredient in a great number of alcoholic beverages – beer and wine, spirits, drinks with concentrated alcohol, and mixed drinks (for example cocktails). The selling of alcoholic drinks to people below the age of 18 is prohibited (Health Law, article 54).
Does it lead to addiction? Yes. Alcohol abuse can lead to the development of very strong physical and psychological dependence. This happens much faster for children than for adults.
Is there a need of increase of the quantity to receive the same effect? Yes, there is. Alcohol use can lead to the development of tolerance towards the amount taken. For some people who are genetically predisposed this happens much faster (for example, people who have cases of alcoholism in their family).
What alcohol consumption is considerate moderate? In the different countries there are certain frequencies and quantities for use which are considerate moderate. Because of the existing differences, the World Health Organization (WHO) accepts that for the adult women and all people above 65 years old, a moderate consumption is one standard drink a day, and for the adult men up to 65 years old – two standard drinks a day, and it doesn’t mean an everyday use.0 votedFebruary 10, 20151- Non posso venire stasera C'è un altro tempesto oggi, con tanto neve. Non posso venire in Cambridge per parlare italiano con voi. La mia macchina è sbarrata nel mio vialetto d'accesso. I bus vanno lentemente e sono irregolari. Sono frustratoa perché non è mai andata, ma ogni tempesto aveva succeso il lunedi, il giorno del'appuntomento.February 9, 2015100
