Ciao Sono Gerry Sto imparando Italiano da otto mese. Vorrei parlare Italiano ma quando sto parlando le parole volanno via e la grammattica vole via. Ho settanta anni. Sono nato in nord ovest Inghilterra. Vivo 30 km nord di Manchester. Mi piace ascoltare la musica e le canzone. Suono ukulele e chittara. Canto in due cori. Vado in palestra. Mi piace camminare. Non fumo e non bevo alcol.

    This weekend, I didn't do anything, I felt so depressed, and the entire day seemed so dull and unventful. I didn't want to study nor working out, I didn't want to watch a movie or going out, I didn't want to eat nor sleep. For these reasons I was angry, I didn't know for what, I was angry that's all. I realised that, the reason of my discomfort was that the days before I stessed too much, studying too much, and doing things that I don't like to do. Stress was the cause of everything. So yesterday I went to bed early and I rested a little bit more that my usual. Today I feel better, I'm more productive and motivated. I hate when I feel of losing my time, time for me is important and I don't want waste it complaining about everything. On the other hand, I belive that I should accept days off, when my body wants to tell me that I should rest, think and relax. We are not made to work 24\7, we are also made of pleasure and joy. When one wants to be always productive, and efficent ended up to be depressed because he is going away from his real being.

    I love this article.

When you always want to be productive and efficent you can end up being depressed because you are going away from your true self.

    We don't use "when one wants" it's too formal and old fashioned. We usually use "when you want..."

    La Costa Un mare agitato(o mosso) ha grandi onde. La nostra spiaggia locale è prevalentemente sabbiosa con qualche sasso e ciottoli.

    Giù dalla riva c'è una ripida scogliera

    che sovrasta la spiaggia e i bambibi spesso giocano nelle grotte lì.

    Alla fine della baia c'è un piccolo porto.

    Quando il tempo è brutto le barche a vela sono protette dalle onde e dal mare mosso.

    Spesso vediamo grandi navi all'orizzonte.

    Il Mare e Gli Oceani Arriva la marea (o entra).È alta marea.

    La marea esce(o si spegna). È bassa marea.

    Due volte al giorno.

    Le barche galleggiano sulla superficie dell'acqua.

    In caso di maltempo una barca può capovolgersi e affondare. Le persone sulla barca potrebbero rimanere intrappolate sott'acqua e affogare.

    Rivers I fiumi scorrono verso il mare.

    Un fiume può essere largo e profundo o stretto e poco profundo.

    Se piove forte (o pesantemente) un fiume può scoppiare le sue sponde che causano inondazioni.

    Se non c'è pioggia per molto tempo il fiume si asciuga.

    The temperature change here is unbelivably dramatic. When I took off my overcoat to enjoy the sunshine, expecting a T-shirt temperature the next day, the temperature dropped to the bottom again. That is driving me insane. Usually, a 10 degree change in temperature comes with an early warning in the news,but in this small town, it is just taken for granted. How can I increase the writing register of this paragraph?

    Use dramatic in the title also.
