    A little bit of heaven

    Marley is a lively girl from New York. She has just been promoted in her job. She has never fallen in love, she likes having sex without any commitment. She doesn't get on well with her parents, but she enjoys life with her friends and her dog. She thinks she doesn't need anything else to be happy.
    But one day one of her friends notices that she has been losing weight and she encourages Marley to visit a doctor. After some medical tests, Marley has to face the truth, she has colon cancer. There is no possible surgery, because the cancer is in an advanced stage, and chemotherapy doesn't work, <font style="background-color: yellow;">and </font><font style="background-color: yellow;">the</font> cancer goes on spreading. She realizes that she only <strike>have</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">has</font> months left. Even though she is told to try an experimental trial, she decides to quit it, so that she can enjoy a better quality of life until her death.
    During her last months, she achieves many <strike>pending</strike> goals from her life [<font color="#0000ff" style="background-color: inherit;">alternative:  she accomplishes many of the goals she had set for herself</font>]. She understand her parents' feelings towards her. She learns to forgive her friends<strike>,</strike> when they <strike>get</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">stay</font> away from her because they can't stand seeing her suffering [<font color="#0000ff" style="background-color: inherit;">alternative:  they can't stand to see her suffering</font>]. She finally falls in love<strike>,</strike> with her doctor, who tries to make Marley as happy as she can in her last days.
    It's a very touching movie, and even though there aren't many sad scenes in it, it makes you think about the way you want to live your life, and it can easily move you to tears.


    Great job, Ana!

    Saturday with my roommate

    Today I went with my roommate to buy some<font style="background-color: yellow;"> </font>things that we needed. First we went from <font style="background-color: yellow;">the</font> university to the city by <strike>a</strike> bus, it was really <strike><font style="background-color: rgb(0, 255, 0);">problematic</font></strike><font style="background-color: rgb(0, 255, 0);"> difficult</font> <font style="background-color: yellow;">because</font> as students we need to have wit<font style="background-color: yellow;">h</font> us our residency documents and student card<strike>,</strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">.</font> I forgot the document<font style="background-color: yellow;">s</font> so I had to return to my room to <font style="background-color: yellow;">get them</font> <strike>take that</strike>.
    Well, after that we went to the mall and walk<font style="background-color: yellow;">ed</font><strike>ing</strike> for <strike>many</strike> a <font style="background-color: yellow;">long time</font> looking for school<strike>ar</strike> materials, a pair of shoes for my roommate and finally we <strike>buy</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">bought</font> a nice <strike>furniture for shoes</strike> <font style="background-color: rgb(0, 255, 0);">shoe rack</font>, now we have a <strike>furniture</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">place</font> to put our shoes.
    It was a long day but we were able to find all the things that we need.

    <font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">    </font><font style="background-color: inherit;">  My corrections</font>

    <font style="background-color: rgb(0, 255, 0);">    </font><font style="background-color: inherit;">  My suggestions -- English does not have a specific word for this, but "shoe rack" is a close expression.  Furniture is not the right word -- that word is used for couches, chairs, tables, dressers, etc. -- larger items.
    </font>

    <font style="background-color: inherit;">Muy bien!  Keep practicing! 
    </font>

    Ayer en el parque Ayer, fui a un parque aquí en Los Angeles con mi esposa. Vimos un perrito que era muy pequeño y bonita. Ella me dije que quiere otro perro. Respondí que ya tenemos dos perros y un gato, y no necesitamos otra mascota. Tuvimos dos plantas también, pero ellos se murieron porque nunca recordaba a darles agua. Es bueno que estoy más responsable con animales que con las plantas, porque siempre recuerdo dar comida a mis mascotas, claro. Tenemos un chihuahua y un “Yorkie”. Por seguro, la Yorkie es el jefe de la casa. Hoy en la mañana, ella me despertó a las cinco y media porque ella tuvo hambre y quiso comida, aun hoy es sábado. Ahora estoy tan cansado. Todo de esta entrada es ficción – simplemente quería practicar el pretérito y el imperfecto. Pues, todo excepto la Yorkie, que verdaderamente es el jefe de mi casa.

    Summer time

    I don't know what to write today. I'm exhausted <strike>due to</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">from</font> the summer weather. I'm from the south of Spain and here the weather is usually warm. However, these days are extremely hot <strike>and warm</strike>. I wish I had a swimming pool in my garden but I <strike>haven't</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">don't</font>. The fact is that <font style="background-color: yellow;">in the summer</font> the air conditioner is the best friend of people from the south of Spain <strike>in summer</strike>.


    Great post.  Just some thoughts:  Saying "due to the summer weather" is fine, but a more common and less formal way is to say "from the summer weather."  In the United States we would say "backyard" instead of "garden."  Maybe that is the proper usage in British English, I don't know.

    La Primera Entrada. Hoy tuve mi primera lección con un profesor en italki. Fue un poco nervioso, porque me pone muy nervioso hablar en español. Pero estoy muy alegro que he encontrado este sitio web porque yo sé que necesito hablar español, y hablar más, y luego hablar más en español, si quiero aprender el idioma en realidad. Me parece que es mucho más fácil verdaderamente aprender los idiomas hoy que en años pasado porque hay sitios web como esté y tecnología como Skype. Gracias por leer esta entrada.
