Practice

In Last year I was been on the holiday in at this time. But now (this year) I just finished my practice in town council. Practice lasted for three weeks. It was not a really interesting experience. Some days I worked on a computer, but other was days when I read a book because they didn't have haven"t got whatever to do for me to do. Hours on the clock stayed in the same place. Time seemed to go by slowly.  But I met three nice girls. We always go went to lunch together about 11 a.m to lunch. Also, the officials was were been very patient, nice and helpful. But now I know that I did't don't want to working in the town council- it's too boring for me.

I don't understand "practice."  Was this an internship?  What exactly do you mean? 

Holiday!

It's I'm on holiday, so I have a lot of free time. I'm so bored and I don't know what to I can do. I think that learning a languages is a good idea. Yes, I will do this. I want to learn study English for about 4 hours every day. I think this is a good idea rage. I'm going to watch English films with English subtitles and read books in English. Maybe this plan is crazy, but I'm a crazy person so I like to do crazy things. So let's go.

Good!

1) <a href="http://www.cucirca.com/">http://www.cucirca.com/</a> - a good place for free English TV (unfortunately, no subtitles)

2) Można oglądać programy telewizyjne dla dzieci. TV dla dzieci ma zwykle łatwiej, w konwersacji słownictwo.  For example: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLxnD7ZQkSQ">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLxnD7ZQkSQ</a> (My Little Pony).  Transcript here: <a href="http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Transcripts/Putting_Your_Hoof_Down">http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Transcripts/Putting_Your_Hoof_Down</a>

3) You can find English podcasts, too.

4) You can even find Harry Potter online.  Here is book 1 (American version): <a href="http://222.187.197.206:88/dzts/book/book76/2009893675883.pdf">http://222.187.197.206:88/dzts/book/book76/2009893675883.pdf</a>

A few words about friendship.

The last few days forced me to think about worth the value of friendship. A few months ago I met a girl from Vietnam (a Vietnamese girl) named Chi. We talk together on Facebook and Skype chat, we even talked a few times even on skype with microphones. Nothing special, They were ordinary conversations, nothing special. However I am very interested in being pen-pals with postcards. snail-mails and postcrossing project. You know, exchange of postcards. So, she sent to me a few postcards and letters, and I sent some in back too.  It was a very nice experience.

I will turn have 20 birthday on 22 July 22. She decided to send me a gift to me from Vietnam. This is cause of my thinking about worth why I am thinking about the value of friendship. I don't write about only gift, but I write about intention behind gift.  The important thing here is the intention  behind the gift. If someone she can waste her time and moneys for a strange man who she never meet in real life (and probably will never will meet in future) what is the value of worth of my real relationships with friends here, in Poland?  Sometimes If they don't even give me sometimes one little hour of their time!? Chi - this is name of that girl from Vietnam - comes from a poor family, in a poor country and she sent a nice gift to Poland (on the another side of the Earth) gift (not worthless) via courier (more expensive than the post office, but and faster). This is not no case of pure materialism on my part. I want to show care about people's intentions. Some people disregard, ignore, and exploitation others on every occasion; and on the other people side show trust, human kindness, and friendship. Until today, I thought for today that relations between humans in on the Internet are pathetic. Today I changed my mind thoughts. A person people who doesn't haven't prejudices (of body and beauty), and only just knows someone's soul, interior of someone could be very kind and full of friendly. Maybe this is more valuable than normal ordinary feelings. It is more spiritual without all material stuff...

Media.

A couple from the Netherlands came to Poland for their Polish friends' wedding their friends from Poland. They were in Poland for the first time. They came back were astonished. Probably They probably thought that my country is backward. Anyway, after their visit they changed their minds. ;)

It was the same situation before the Euro2012 (games), when the Western media started to present Poland as country which is intolerant and extremely racist. So, am I racist?

Practice punctuation. 

Just take a chance.

Nobody’s perfect, right? We all make mistakes that we can regret later. It’s in people human nature, as we don’t really know what’s going to happen next after we make a step forward. It maybe something good things or but something bad as well. The point is to have the courage to overcome that bad luck and still have the faith in better days which will definitely come.

But However, we cannot forget the past, because we are who we are due to things that happened to us earlier. If they hadn’t happened at all, we would have been (we would be) totally different people. So, we should keep in mind people that were beside us then. We should remember the people who were in our lives. It doesn't No matter if they were friends or mere acquaintances just accidentally encountered person – as long as they had an influence on us we should remember them.

And What if we’ve lost contact with them? What if we want to renew acquaintance with them but we’re not sure if they want it too? Don’t be shy. Don’t be afraid. If you try and promise yourself you’ll work hard this time, it work out. The point is to do what YOU really want to do even if other people have opinions that are different from yours. It’s your life. You’re the only one who may regret things that could have been different if you only had done something. Just take a chance.

Excellent job! 

Notes:

blue: alternative / alternatywa

"But"/"However."  In casual spoken English, we often start sentences with "but" and "and" - this is fine.  In written English, we should not start a sentence with a conjunction ("and", "or", "but"). In written English, we should use a different word to start a sentence (examples: "Furthermore", "However", etc).

Oriana Fallaci

Certainly citizen from Italy every Italian knows who was Oriana Fallaci. Recently I got her book. In this book are collected intervievs interviews with well known characters famous people such as for example Henry Kissinger, Jaser Yasser Arafat, and Indira Kandhi Gandhi.

She was a journalist and a writer. She was very open-minded, she said everything whatever she wanted, and whatever she thought. She criticized the authorities. She always said told the truth about politicians true, everything what she tthought about them. Many people were afraid of having an interview feel fear before interviev with her. She is differently perceived in different countries. Mayby Maybe you know something interesting about her?
