I am writing this very sporadically and random, so you might have to hire a code-breaker to interpret it. I am a high school student who is fascinated by other cultures and their lifestyles. That's one of the main reasons I joined italki.com; so I could learn more and more about other places and people. Also, I joined to practice my Spanish for my Spanish class in school. Even if I don't speak your language, I will try my hardest to communicate with you ( just be patient :D ). So far, my experience here, however short, has been great! I have gotten feedback and helped people and generally had a fun time! Here's to hoping it never changes! Back to me, I guess you could consider me a "smart kid", but all I do is apply myself and I make A's. I am very musical, and I play many instruments: piano, cello, trombone, tuba, and voice to name a few :P. I recently applied to the IB diploma programme and was accepted into it. Also, I am working towards my pilot's license and I plan to be a private pilot for personal use within the next couple years. Hmm... What else? I am a "southern boy", but I don't think I have an accent (I blend right in in Seattle, Boston, and NY with not one person commenting on my "southern drawl". +1 point for me!). I have lived all over the southern U.S., from Alabama to Mississippi to Alabama again, to Tennessee, and currently, South Carolina. I lived on larger plots of land for most of my life, usually having a cornucopia of dogs, cats, horses, and anything else that found its way to our doorstep. At the moment though, I live in a suburb, and I am liking it. I wish to learn other languages and shy away from the romance languages. I would really like to learn languages like Arabic and Japanese and Chinese or really anything I feel interesting! Hmm... I can't think of much else... I will add more later :D

    I have a cold

    Yes, I have a cold. I suffer from a headache and backache. I have spent all day on the (in the bed, it just sounds more natural) bed, I had a temperature and I was awful. Now, I'm working, yes, at night. It is a good timetable. No boss, no rules, but I know what I have to do.
    I'm working in a factory next to Zaragoza, Spain. I took paracetamol and my temperature went down. Ready to work¡¡¡¡! My boss has changed me my timetable, I will have to work on saturday night, it's awful and horrible. Today isn't my perfect day but I have passed worst worse days. I need a penfriend to improve my English and talk about our lifestyles. I make bearings by for the car. See you. Kisses

     

    ¡Muy bueno! You only had a few mistakes here and there, but I could understand you very well.

    To make it grammatically correct and still sound powerful, you might say, "If you love someone, love them deeply. If you do not truely love someone, please leave them be." Of course, this might not be perfectly accurate, but I tried ^_^.

    Ok, so "at", is used to say you are in a certain place. "I am at the movie theater", meaning you are physically located near or around it. "In" is generally used to say you were a part of or located inside something more general. If I were to say, "I am in the movie theater", I would be saying I am inside the location I am on the premises of it. You can also use "in" as saying you were part of something, such as, "I was in a play", meaning you participated or took place performing the play.

Entonces, tengo muchos problemas cuando ecribo en la computadora. Necesito buscar "accentos" en la internet copiar y pegar en mi escrito.

    Thank you all to for accompanying me for 1/900 of my life! (1)

    I have ever heard that most of our life is lives are just 900 months. I came to Italki just before a month ago, and I have been addicted to it since then. I developed a daily habit to access of accessing Italki, and I am have really enjoyed it.
    Here I met some good teachers. They are all very kind. I learnt so much from them. Thank all the contacters with me! Thanks to all the people who contacted with me!
    I would like to thank them respectively. I wrote a long essay to say thanks, so I have to post it several times.
    Do not give me an Oscar. In case I got get the award I will be nagging a all day long.
    Haha!

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself

    I am from Shanxi province in P.R. china. I want to study English very much by italki.com. It is nice to meet everyone.

     

     

    I completely understand what you wrote, but I am just being critical. While it is socially acceptable to put "nice to meet everyone", it is not grammatically correct (Of course everyone will understand you, but someone will eventually get onto you about it). Don't foget to properly put a verb into the subject of your sentence, in this case, "is".

    Yes exactly. Both statements are referring to the future of "A" being similar to "B".

    Both of your sentences are grammatically correct, however, it is more natural when speaking English to put an adverb like hardly in front of a verb it is modifying. For example, I would find it much more natural to say, "I quickly ran to the store" than to say "I ran quickly to the store". Really, it is just personal preference and it doesn't matter.
