Stolen gun

A policeman who is a 26 years old patrolman (<em>If you meant something else by lagerman please let me know</em>) was hit , and his gun stolen. The suspect is a 33 years old man.

The crime happened at Osaka city Japan in this week, not to be confused with Naomi Osaka, a tennis player.

Similar crimes have happened in the past.

I am surprised that the crimes are happening in Japan.

It is like we are living in a foreign, dangerous country .

Fortunately, the policeman is alive.

I have two dogs and three cats. One dog is a Samoyed, the other a mixed-breed dog we adopted. All three of my cats are street cats that we rescued. Since it's summer now they are all shedding and changing their coat and it's a nightmare to keep them all groomed!

Cooking

I have a Chinese stomach, so I am really not used to eating typical western food, like burgers and pizza every day. The most important technique in Chinese cooking is stir-frying, and vegetables become really tasty by using this method. Also, that's why I really dislike salads, for me they are just raw vegetable leaves with all kinds of strange sauces.

I always cook meals by myself, and I enjoy the process. I would like to learn new recipes (<em>you would commonly say that you learn new recipes, not learn from new recipes</em>). Often, when I eat something delicious outside, I want to replicate it at home. Unfortunately, (<em>better and more common word to use here</em>), sometimes I fail to make the exact same dish that(<em>this is a simpler way of saying it</em>) I ate in a restaurant. Well, it's reasonable, because if they want to make money they have to keep some seasoning a secret. Anyway, I will not give up, and just treat those failures as opportunities for improving my cooking skills!

Please help correct my English: A busy day today

I was anxious last night and couldn't fall asleep until 2 a.m.<s> this morning</s>. (<em>you don't really need to say "in the morning"if you already said at 2.a.m.</em>)I woke up around 7:30 a.m. My son finished his breakfast and walked to school himself.

I decided to use the morning hours to write a summary for this semester's scratch class which I teach as an Enrichment program teacher at my son's primary school. It took me about two hours.

Around 10 a.m., I audio chatted with a friend via Wechat (the Chinese version of WhatsApp but more advanced). She is a new coach and just worked with her first client yesterday. She told me some details of that coaching session. It was amazing! She totally has the talent for being a coach. She mentioned a very helpful 2-day workshop she attended and I asked her about it (I asked for information about it). Hopefully, I will have time to participate in that workshop next time in September.

Afterwards, I had lunch with a friend discussing the plan for our children during the summer vacation.

There was a lecture about mindfulness this afternoon near my apartment from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. I went there. (<em>you can say "I went to that place" but I would mention exactly what kind of a place the lecture being held at in that case</em>) It was interesting and enlightening. However, I didn't have enough time to finish it.

I left the lecture around 3:20 p.m. and taught the scratch class until 5:30 p.m.

<em>Great job! You didn't really make any major mistakes here.</em>

Report - English language club

The aim of this report is to analyze several points of an English language club which is starting where I live.

Meetings

An English club should try to meet at least <em>( I would use "at least" instead of "almost" as it makes more sense here)</em> twice a week in order to practice English by talking about everything that happened during the week. However, if there are less than ten people signed up for the club, it would be also possible to make online calls on Skype.

Activities

Everyone should provide the club with different activities in order to make it fun, but all of them have to be related to English learning. Almost everyone who joins this club wants to learn English and not just play or talk about daily things.

On the other hand, although people have to pay 10€ for membership, I would add some paid activities in order to make more money. That could help us to offer better things for people who come to the club every week.

Making posters and hanging them near the club would be a good option in order to make people aware of the club's existence. In addition, talking about the club wherever you go like at the gym or at the hairdresser could also work.

In conclusion, all these points are equally important and must be taken into account in order to keep the club opened as much as possible.

Day 24 : Practice of phrasal verbs 2 (Aaron 2)

(Aaron 2)

Aaron arrives in front of the supermarket. This job doesn't really appeal to him, but he needs money. Once inside, a young woman tells him to hang on a few minutes. After twenty minutes, the boss finally shows up. Aaron is starting to become impatient ! The boss is small, big and bald, but he is smiling and invites Arron to come into his office. He says to him: "As you know, we are looking to take on a cashier. Indeed, one of our cashiers is pregnant ; so, we want somebody to fill in for her. We would like someone who can fit in with the team and the customers. Moreover, this quality will allow you to quickly settle in our supermarket."

Just then, screams break out <s>then</s> and cover the boss' voice. What is happening ?!? The boss gets out of the office to go <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">to</s> see what is happening. Aaron practically closes the door and observes. Some gunshots are <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">being</s> heard when two armed men arrive in front of the boss. Aaron sees one man knock the boss out and backs away in fear. The shot went off very loudly (<em style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">or with a lot of force</em>) and the ground is becoming red. But the police is already here and the two men run away. They enter <s>in</s> the office but they don't see Aaron who is behind the door. Then, they jump out the window. But the policemen run after the killers and hold them back further away. Aaron profits from the confusion and also jumps out the window. He then comes across a gun, certainly one of the killer's.

Aaron takes the gun and gets away.
