Were you studying and practicing since our previous lessons? Time to get back to work! Study and practice. That's how we learn. I think you did practice and study. But not enough! Yes, you're doing well, you express yourself well but you need more vocabulary and you need to enter the culture like it's Disneyland. Continue the good progress.

Very good lesson. Your English is like Spain's futbol team, stronger than expected. You studied and worked much but have not practiced enough to make it smooth and slick. Together we will make your English most excellent. Read more! Continue the very good progress.

Good lesson today, but you need to open those books and understand what is there. Yes, it's work, it's not easy, but think about what happens next. You are doing well; continue the progress. Pronouncing is good - I correct small mistakes, not big ones, you are having trouble with vocabulary, that makes your conversations slow, we will kill this quickly because you work to learn and we all see this. Read more, use a dictionary more. Practice speaking more. Soon you will be expert at speaking and I will make sure that when you speak you will have great grammar and vocabulary. You are getting there.

    Estoy ocupado

    Me habia prometido a mi <strike>misma</strike> mismo escribir <strike>una</strike> un “notebook“ cada dos dias. No cumplí la promesa <strike>porque </strike>por que he <strike>sido </strike>estado ocupado durante dos semanas. <strike>Tardará </strike>Se tarda mucho tiempo en prepararse para viajar a los <strike>estadosunidos</strike> Estados Unidos, donde estaré un periodo de tiempo largo<strike>lo que estaria por largo periodo</strike>. Además, mi padre no se ha <strike>recuparado</strike> recuperado. Estoy <strike>arreglando </strike>buscando un(a) hogar<em> (mejor, residencia)</em> de ancianos para él.

    Sé que debo estudiar más español <strike>más</strike> y escribir más para mejorarlo.

    NOTA: La frase "<em>Estoy arreglando un hogar de ancianos para él</em>", se entiende. Mi corrección está adaptada a tu frase. Aún así, el verbo <em>"arreglar"</em> se podría utilizar en el sentido "<em>estoy arreglando los papeles para que ingrese en una residencia de ancianos</em>".

    NOTA 2: Al final de esa frase pones "para él". Está bien, pero es más correcto sustituirlo por "le" al principio de la frase. Es decir, en vez de: "Estoy buscando una residencia para él", decir "<em>Le estoy buscando una residencia</em>".

    Eso es todo. Mis mejores deseos para la recuperación de tu padre.

    Saludos,
    Ricky.

    Campus Party 2010 Hi Everybody. Today I'm going to talk about Campus Party 2010 (CP 2010). CP 2010 is a technical event that takes place in Valencia every years. Valencia is a big city in the east coast of Spain which is famous to be the natal land of "PAELLA". As well of PAELLA, Valencia has a lot of interesting stuff to view. One of the most important things is the architectonical complex called "Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias" (traduced to english could be Sciences and Arts City). This complex was designed by the famous architect Santiago Calatrava. He's designed, for example, the BCE Place in Toronto among other things. Anyway... CP is one of the biggest technical events in Europe. CP is divided in a group of areas: Free software, robotics, astronomy, simulation, Campus Blog, green campus, videogames and creativity. The last one is my area and I am one of the contents coordinator. Our work consists in making the contents' schedule for all of the week. Also we manage a couple of "in situ" projects that will be developed by the participants (called Campuseros) and our direction of them. Our area is divided in subareas too, such as: music, video, multimedia and graphic design, graphic programming and design tendencies... This event is very, very interesting and funny. You end the event with a lot of new knowledges and a new group of friends. If you're interested in, or you have something cool to show, don't doubt in contact with me. I let you some links according with my explanation: http://www.cac.es/ http://www.campus-party.es/2010/ Thank you in advance for your corrections.

    San Isidro - local fairly day

    Hi Everybody.

    Today in Madrid San Isidro day is celebrated. San went from being a farmworker to a saint.

    In Madrid there is a church named in his honour. On the 15th of May there is a religious celebration in which the saint's statue is showed during a short period of time. During this time, some of his followers try to touch it for receiving good luck. I don't believe in this things, but it's very interesting how people are able to change when the religious believings come to their minds (or are in their minds).

    Anyway... there are bull fights and other celebrations. Yesterday, in Gran Via (one of the most importants streets in Madrid) there was a concert with a lot of rock/pop groups from the 90's. They're now more wrinkled than back then, ;) but their music rules yet.

    Espero volverme <strike>a</strike> una mujer delgada <strike>en</strike> pronto.

    (This is my correction over your entry, but I'm going to put as I would say)
    <em>
    Hoy estoy contenta por que, cuando he cogido el metro, nadie me ha cedido su asiento. Hace, más o menos, tres meses que la gente me cede el asiento, por que creen que estoy embarazada en vez de por que estaba obesa.

    Gracias a practicar deporte, por fin, estoy como una persona sin sobrepeso. Aún así, aún tengo un poco de sobrepeso.

    Espero perder unos kilos más muy pronto.</em>

    San Isidro - local fairly day Hi Everybody. Today in Madrid is celebrated San Isidro. San Isidro became from to be farmworker (i don't know if this word is correct, because i want to mean a person who works in the field collecting stuff) to be a saint. In Madrid he has a church made in honour of his name. All of 15th of May it is celebrated a religious meeting in which the saint statue is showed during a short period of time. In this time, some of his followers try to touch it for receiving good luck. I don't believe in this things, but it's very interesting how the people is able to change when the religious believings come into scene. Anyway... there is, too, bull fightings and other celebrations. Yesterday, in Gran Via (one of the most importants streets in Madrid) was a concert with a amount of rock/pop groups from 90's. They're now more wrinkled than in 90's ;) but their music rules yet. Thank you in advance for your corrections. I hope you've like it. Bye, Ricky.
