    Today's lesson #6

    Today my teacher asked me who the greatest person I've ever met is. I respect my parents and teachers, of course, but these answers might be typical and boring. So this is how I replied: One of the greatest people I've ever met is my boyfriend.
    I have a story about him.* I went on a trip to New York with him this March. At that time, we went to a popular hamburger restaurant that is famous for its crazy shakes. (Look at my profile picture! That's the one.) To be honest, it was by far the sweetest food I've ever eaten and I wanted to eat more, but it was too expensive. I got somewhat disappointed. However, he said, "Hey! Just have fun! This is definitely a nice opportunity that we can't experience in Japan!" Thanks to his remark, I could enjoy the rest of my trip. I think that people who can look on the bright side at any time and make others happy are great.


    * I omitted some details because my sentences would be too long if I wrote it. Thus you might not think he is so great, but he is a pleasant person indeed.


    *Not sure what you meant. Tried my best to give an accurate replacement.

    *Just a guess as to what you meant again

    There is no difference, however "certain of" is used most commonly, so if you're ever unsure, use that.

    UN PAÍS ESPAÑOL (PARTE 1) En este lujoso país exploramos la prístina selva zumbido con raro fauna silvestre, dormitarse en idílicas playas donde aguas cristalinas que solapa arenas mojadas de historia y admira la colonial arquitectura única helada en tiempo. Quizás estás pensando en Bali, Tailandia o tal vez el Caribe, pero este país es el sexto país menos visitado en el mundo - Guinea Ecuatorial - o de forma oficial la República de Guinea Ecuatorial. Guinea Ecuatorial es el único país en África que tiene español como el idioma nacional. Ahora mismo hay solo una guía para el país en inglés y ninguna en sueco. “Hay playas increíblemente aisladas donde te sientes como Indiana Jones.” Ha dicho Oscar Scafidi, el autor del guía Guinea Ecuatorial. Hasta hace poco, el país ha estado cerrado debido a la dictadura. Lo bueno es que tendrías prácticamente el lugar para usted. Es como, de alguna manera, un increíble mini-Dubái que se está construyendo en el centro de la jungla. Por otro medio, es un paraíso si te gustan los animales - hay el gorila occidental de llanura o planicie, el elefante africano de bosque y la fauna de los mares que son únicos en la zona. Guinea Ecuatorial destaca en otras formas. Sus islas han estado un mercado de esclavos y comercio donde poderes europeos y personas de Nigeria, Sierra Leone y Liberia han dejado su huella. En la Isla de Corisco, por ejemplo, hay ruinas misioneras españolas, arquitectura francés y botellas de ginebra alemán del siglo XIX, todavía intacto. En la mayoría de las países tendrías recorridos que explotan estas cosas, pero aquí hay solo tu y los locales. Apuesto quieres ir, ¿verdad? Cuando he ido era muy difícil no estar impresionado, especialmente porque fui invitado como huésped del presidente. Hay un breve periodo de espera en el salón VIP, con sofá de cuerina y The Naked Gun que está tocando a una pantalla plana de televisión antes de ellos me llevaron con una limusina; el lío usual de control de pasaportes han tratado por autoridades amistosas. Cuando he dejado el aeropuerto de Malabo he visto que casi parecen de escultura modernista de aviones descartados, uno de los cuales está apuntando su nariz al aire. Me he preguntado si ese fue alguna clase de conmemorativo extraño para el infame intento de golpe Wonga, cuando mercenarios que han conducido por el britanicos han incumplido derrocar el Gobierno de Guinea Ecuatorial.

    Asking

    I watched Amanda Palmer's speech on TED. She talked about "asking". She said "Asking makes you vulnerable". I noticed that asking someone for help means trusting them.

    What makes a film into a box-office hit?

    Nowadays watching films is one of the most popular ways of spending free time. Kids and teenagers, adults and aged people alike like going to cinemas regularly. That’s the reason why film-makers could be considered as one of the richest types of people. The audience pays a lot for their product.


    To create a successful film bringing a lot of money to the studio, creators have to provide some points like a good plot, graphics, special effects, and choosing suitable music. And of course, professional and famous actors is an attractive decoy for their fans. Maybe a mixture of these factors is a real recipe of making a blockbuster, but if you want to create not only a film bringing in money, but a film considered as art, you must have one more thing. This is talent. Talent can bring you a lot of money even if your film's budget isn't large.


    I think that this is the root of the problem with Russian cinematography. Film-makers have a lot of possibilities but they have no talent and therefore they can’t create a really good film. They just don’t care about the quality of their product. They get money with the help of the product placement included into their movies and they also use advertising to promote their commercial films. They don’t care about anything because they already have money even if their movie isn't released yet.


    Of course, if you want to create a financially successful product, you should care about advertising and etcetera, but a really good movie must have a soul.

    The correct one would be "She feels she is entitled to have happiness." Have is used with some pronouns and plural nouns: "I have lots of apples." "You have pretty hair" "We have water for the thirsty, food for the hungry." "Girls (they) usually have long hair" Has is used with the third person singular. For example: "She has two hairbrushes." "He has a new car." "The car has a dent in it." "It has a dent in it."

    Essentially, grace in this case seems to mean "purity" So, it would mean "I do not have enough purity to pray before a snack." or "I am not good enough to pray before a snack"

    Essentially, to "cut in line" ("Hon trängde sig." = "She cut in line"). It can also be about being in a tight space ("Jag behövde tränga mig" = "I needed to squeeze through")
