    Die Idee, dass wir niemanden verurteilen sollen, bevor wir seine Lebensgeschichte kennen, ist eigentlich von allen bekannt. Viele Romane und Filme zielen darauf ab, genau diese Lebensweisheit zu vermitteln (Wer die Nachtigall stört fällt mir sofort ein). Aber manchmal erkennt man die Wahrheit einer Lebensweisheit, erst wenn man sie am eigenen Leib erfährt oder wenn man sich einen Film ansieht, in dem man mit den Hauptfiguren tief mitfühlt. Erst als ich den Film Incendies gesehen habe, wurde für mich diese Lebensweisheit sehr klar. In diesem Film geht es um zwei Geschwister, die die emotionale Distanziertheit ihrer Mutter immer verletzend und unverständlich fanden. Als diese auf dem Sterbebett liegt, schickt sie ihre Kinder in ihr Heimatland, damit sie ihren Vater und ihren Bruder ausfindig machen können. Während dieser Reise lernen sie, ihre Mutter besser zu verstehen. Dieser Film ist aufwühlend und überraschend und deswegen hat er für mich einen größeren Eindruck hinterlassen als andere Film und Bücher mit einer ähnlichen Botschaft.

    I like to have changes in life. I'm an outgoing and brave person. I am eager to have funny and impressive experiences. The life of the protagonist in a novel always make me yearn for new experiences. I am eager to experience plot twists and enjoy the happiness that springs from them. That's my own reason. There is more behind that. The deeper reasons are as follows. First of all, if you choose a life which has many changes, you will broaden the path of your life. To a very real degree, we can't decide the length of life, but we can decide the width of life through our efforts and through our willingness to embrace changes. What's more, leading a life with changes is the challenge of our age. These days, everything happens so fast that I can hardly think where I'll be even two years from now! So, we should actively take steps. I will lead a life full of changes. End in blessings (meaning a little unclear), I sincerely wish you a better tomorrow.

    <s>In</s> On Friday 13th March, the last day that I went to school, everybody <s>talk</s> was talking about the virus news and they asked what will happen with <s>presential</s> classes if we can't go to school. Then, <s>later </s>teachers said our classes will be online. The first week of online classes was very relaxed because we were adapting to the change and <s>almost </s>there almost wasn't any homework, but the second week was very stressful for me, I had <s>many</s> a lot of homework and I couldn´t <s>to</s> do it because I had <s>few</s> little time, so I decided that I should <s>to</s> change my personal schedule <s>for</s> to organize <s>all things what</s> everything that I had to do.<s>, then </s>I wrote my homework <s>in colors</s> on coloured / colourful post-its with one or two activities per day and this way I could be <s>more neat</s> neater and <s>to</s> do my homework on time.

    If you have any questions about what I changed, just send a message.

    Hi, 'to have someone do / doing something' is quite informal, but the difference is comparable to the difference between simple and continuous. - 'If you don't want to teach the children, just have them make a poster for an hour' (speaking generally, or a suggestion) - 'He doesn't want to teach the childen today, so he has them making posters' (right now) - 'When I went round, he had his kids working in the shop' (at the time that I was there). It's a very informal structure though and I wouldn't say it's so common. I hope that helps, I hope that helps.

    I can't tell you exactly why the sentence is formulated like it is. I can tell you that it's completely non-standard English and only someone who uses that informal vernacular will be able to tell you what purpose these irregular verb forms serve.

    Hi, 1). 'Where are you living on these days?' would sound very strange to me. Just to be able to answer your question, what makes you want to write 'on'? Where means 'in what place' so, for me, there doesn't need to be another preposition. 2). We don't really use the future tense after time conjunctions (before, after, if, when, until, while) - even when we're talking about the future. We just use the present simple in these clauses. That's why I'd say 'I'll decide when I arrive (and not *when I will arrive). Phil

    Hi Lukas, 1 (past simple) and 3 (present perfect) are both plausible to me. "I fell for this joke before as well." You fell for the joke and now the act of falling for the joke is finished. (Yes, you understand the joke now, so there is an effect in the present, but the verb is 'to fall', which is completely in the past). 'I have fallen for this joke before as well' The present perfect is also fine here. The present perfect has three different uses: (1) for actions that started in the past and continue; (2) for actions in a time frame that started in the past and continues; (3) for recent events with tangible consequences in the present. For me, your sentence sounds like (2): the act of falling for the joke is finished but the time frame (your life) continues. "I have been falling for this joke before as well" This doesn't work. We use the present perfect progressive for things that can continue or be repeated over time (I have been waiting for a minute; I have been playing the piano for years). The act of falling for a joke is instant and doesn't really last over time. I think that's why it sounds strange to me. I hope that helps. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Phil
