Email to my Brazilian friend after arriving in Vancouver (for my interchange)
My friend's email:
News from Canada!
Lud told me that you'll only communicate in English from now on...
Sorry for my poor English, but I want to hear ("know" is not wrong but hear sounds better) news from you !
Good luck!
Bye
My answer:
I'm ashamed to answer you... your writing is completelly correct... I'm going "to speak" English similar to how I speak Portuguese.. rsrs
So, here we go!
Thanks God, I arrived alive :) The flight from Galeão to Atlanta was good, but the space between airplane's seats is very small... it's smaller than our airplanes for domestic flights. Thanks God, on my side there were two thin people (two Brazilians).
I think I snored because when I said to the passenger that was sitting by my side that I had no sure if I had slept, he said to me "yes"... that I had slept [emoji][emoji]
The flight from Atlanta to Vancouver was better... by my side, other Brazilian (what a pest we are! [emoji][emoji] )
Now I'm in "my home". Tomorrow I will send more messages.
Give a hug to Ariane for me! Also to Lud e Alex.0 votedSeptember 4, 20171Olá Sebas, vou corrigir seu texto usando o Português brasileiro, ok?
As multinacionais e o meio ambiente
Boa noite a todos! Vocês podem me ajudar a corrigir meus erros? Agradeço antecipadamente. (:
Não há dúvida de que as multinacionais são como um motor do crescimento econômico. Não só geram emprego, mas também trazem benefícios para os consumidores e a sociedade em geral. No entanto, dizer que elas trazem apenas consequências boas seria ignorar a realidade, a saber, que o impacto que gera no ambiente é devastador: dito de outro modo, elas geram riqueza à custa do ambiente, o qual, mais cedo ou mais tarde, acaba cobrando seu preço. Por que razão, então, o governo não faz nada para melhorar a situação, mesmo quando é sabido que as multinacionais estão causando danos ambientais significativos? Na minha opinião, isso acontece porque os nossos governantes são míopes: eles estão mais interessados em obter o maior número de benefícios econômicos no menor tempo possível do que em preservar aquilo que não representa benefícios econômicos para eles: o meio ambiente. O que se pode dizer dos ativistas? Infelizmente, eu acho que não há muito que pode ser feito quando há dinheiro em jogo, e quando as pessoas comuns não se envolvem na luta.
Obrigado por ler e pela ajuda!Parabéns pelo texto, quase perfeito! Continue assim, e se tiver mais alguma coisa em que posso ajudar, estou à disposição!

Acabei de voltar de uma visita aos Estados Unidos para minha casa no Chile.
Por algum motivo, meus dentes não param de doer desde que eu voltei! A dor é chata e persistente. Estou procurando por medicamentos que possam ajudar, ou talvez haja alguma cura natural?
Essa dor é irritante, e eu quero que pare para que eu possa voltar à vida normal.0 votedSeptember 4, 20171I am locked out
Today, I was locked out of my master bedroom while my son was sleeping on the bed. I immediately told my wife and ran to the apartment office. Unfortunately, the office was closed due to Labour Day. I was unable to make any phone call as my phone was inside the room. I was trying to call from Google, but nobody picked it up due to holidays. I panicked. I was trying to put a screw driver inside the hole of the lock, but it did not work out as I did not know how to unlock it. My wife and brother in law were crying loudly. I was about to call the police. Meanwhile, my wife ran to a neighbor for help. Finally, a neighbor came with a small wire like thing and he unlocked the door.0 votedSeptember 4, 20170Carolines suicide.
Probably everybody in our life has reflected during the most difficult period of life, about suicide. Me too, yeah. But this short story will not be about me. This is a fictional character.
She was beautiful, blue eyes as deep as the ocean, black hair that shines under the sun. She was 18, but looked like 15. And it seemed that her bright red cheeks had index her cheerful life... you could say, but no.
This blue eyes were full of pain, every night she cried and many tears felt on the pillow. In this black hair gray was hidden. You can say, she looked like 15, it is cool. But no! An adult hiding from her problem like a child. And this red cheeks were not for joy and love for life. No, it was not physical attacks, it was moral. "When I feel moral pain, when I feel myself sad and I don't know what to do, my blood starts racing madly and I feel as my face begins to burn" - those words she said one day before suicide. When she was buried, her skin was pale and soul loose.
In a gloomy bath of her rented apartment, was found her bloodied body and letter. "Do not blame anyone, it is my choice and now I am happy.
People in our world are different, some good and some bad, envious and not, handsome and very handsome, but whatever we are, we should stay as people.
The name of this girl was Caroline, but what is your name?
