Activities
- Televisión y mi En mi casa no tengo una televisión en mi habitación, solo en el salón. Pero muchas veces veo programas en mi ordenador. Solía tener una suscripción por Netflix, pero era muy adictivo y me gusta ser productivo, así que necesito con migo misma, aunque ahora tengo un gratis ‘trial’ de Amazon Prime. Me gusta a ver programas dramática, ciencia ficción y humor de negro. También me gusta programas con mujeres fuerte, por ejemplo ‘Orange is the new black’ and ‘Buffy the vampire slayer’. La ultima programa vi se llama ‘Mr Robot’. Normalmente vi la televisión solo, prefiero veo películas en un grupo. En general veo televisión por la noche, este es mas relajar para mi. No veo mucha televisión pero a veces lo hago cada dos o tres días. Principalmente no veo televisión en vivo porque estoy ocupada durante el día y después mi trabajo prefiero tener planes con amigos que quedarme sola.December 2, 201630
- Una saludable vida Una saludable vida es muy importante para mi. Me gusta ejercicio de término medio ejercito de tres a cinco veces en el semana. En general esto ejercicio está solitario actividades como yoga, natación o ciclismo. Pero en el verano me gusta jugar voleibol y surf de remo. Quando tenia joven solía patinar mucho pues mi cuerpo y músculos recuerdan este. Surf de remo es un nuevo desporte para mi. Prefiero a surf de reto en el verano con amigas. En general llevo un traje pero si hace mucho sol, uso bikini pero el mar es todovia frio, pues trato de no caer en el. Surf de remo puede ser peligroso por la corriente. Thanks. This is what I was trying to say in English. A healthy lifestyle is very important to me and I do like to exercise, on average I do this 3-5 times a week. Usually this exercise is solo activities like yoga, swimming or cycling. But in the Summer I like to skate, play volleyball and paddleboard. When I was younger I used to skate a lot so my body and muscles remember this. But paddle boarding is a new sport for me. I prefer to paddleboard in the summer with a group of friends. Usually I wear a wetsuit, but if it is sunny I wear a bikini, but the sea is still cold, so I try not to fall in. Paddlebording can be dangerous if there is a water and it is choppy.March 11, 201640
Getting Stuck In A Conversation
I've been studying English for a long time without give up. I'm always trying to add some new words in my vocabulary by watching series and movies in English and subbed in English. However, when I have an opportunity to talk to someone on Skype (which is rare), sometimes I feel stuck in the conversation and I can't remember the words that I know and that I use when I'm writing or even reading.
I wonder if this is normal once we get some level in any language study, or if there is some problem in my learnt method.
Does anyone else has been faced that problem?Correction: I've been studying English for a long time without giving up.

Does anyone else has been faced that problem?
Really great translation, I was just picking up small things and I feel exactly the same! I understand more when It's written down or i'm listening. Speaking is so hard for me, as the words do not come into my mind quick enough but for me I have to work on my weakest skills the most.
Good luck.

Two weeks ago, my girlfriend and I celebrated the 4th (could say forth in words, but what you have written is ok) dating birthday!
We went to the Outback's Pub to eat ribs with barbecue sauce, french fries with cheese and fried onions.
The place was very clean, well decorated and special! She found it very romantic and different.
In the end, we ordered an ice cream, with strawberries, chantily Chantilly is a type of cream, so it is more common to just say 'strawberries and cream or you could say strawberries and chantily cream and apples on cinnamon's sauce. you need to use the word with here. So you can say with cinnamon sauce, or you could also say with cinnamon sauce on topAfter dinner, we went to another place to get alone and dating a lot! :) Not really sure what you mean here. After dinner we went to another place is fine but the bit after I'm confused about.
Celebration of a special event is called an anniversary.
0 votedMarch 7, 20160- Mi viaje Español Hola, This is my first entry I'm looking to improve and learn from my mistakes. Thanks in advance. Fiona Aprendiendo español es mas mucho que un hora y media classe cada semana. A fin de progresar en el idoma necesitas immerse tu mismo cual es posible aún igual no vives en el pais. Viendo peliculas en su objetivo idoma, leyando libros y enviando masajes son todo bueno. Pero el major es hablando que es también la más difícil y la más temible. Pero también la razón que estoy aprendido un idoma pues puedo comunicarse y entenido. El sitio web ‘Italki’ (www.italki.com) es muy útil. Se pueden intercambio datos de skype con gente luego hablar con ellos. Primero esto sito puede ser impredecible, pero quando conoces la persona correcta el intercambio puede estar bueno por los dos, que le da la confianza y conocimiento de el idoma estás aprendido. Todovia estoy frustrate que no expirmo mi mismo completamente, pero necisito acepto pequeñas victorias y se que aprendido un idoma es un reto de vida. Cada dia aprendo y en desde dos años hace tengo progresado lejos. Learning Spanish is much more than a one and a half hour lesson a week. In order to progress in the language it involves immersion which is possible even if you don’t live in the country. Watching films in your target language, reading books and online sites and sending messages are all good. But the most important one in (my opinion) is talking which is also the hardest and scariest, but also the reason why I am learning a language in order to communicate and understand. I have found the website italki (www.italki.com) to be really useful. It allows you to exchange skype details with someone in your target language so you can chat. At first the site can be a little hit and miss, but when you meet the right language partner the exchange can be extremely useful for both of you giving you experience, confidence and knowledge of the language you are learning. I still get frustrated that I cannot express myself fully, but I have to accept small victories and know that learning a language is a life long process. I am able to learn everyday and compared to my comprehension two years ago I have progressed really far.March 7, 201630
