One More Last Time

One day, everything has an end. I’m here to say how was important the english course in this semester.

In the end of my vacation I had to start my english course. Was my second semester in this course, I meet great teachers, like Nathália and Manoela, but  this semester I took a fright because my english teacher appeared with a student.

In the beginning was difficult for us to understand what he said, because his english pronunciation was very good, like an american man. But with time we learned to hear him.

One thing that I found awesome in his teaching method was the use of new technologies like blogs. And, ofcourse, the use of videos in room class. Videos combined with fonetic was very good, easy to learn.

In the final was a unforgettable semester, the teacher, the classes, the lunch and the most important thing: the friends that I made.

Cake in crisis

The Global Crisis has modified the society. Yesterday I went at the supermarket and I stayed paralysed  when I saw the prices. They were quite expensive. I went to buy some cake’s ingredients.

Here my list:

- A dozen of eggs

- A kilo of flour

- A chocolate packet

- Butter

- Sugar

- A gallon of milk

But when I went at the attendant and she said:

“That’s $ 15.00.”

But I only had $10.00. I thought with myself: “I’ve got to get out of here”.

And I said: “Oh! I left the oven on, I’ll be right back!”

And I never came back to that supermarket and the cake was made with borrowed ingredients. Neighbors are made for those things.

A hoax recipe

Every semester new students go into the faculty of communication. The “innocents” freshmen are received by veterans who prepare some tricks for them. First, veterans tie the freshmen with a rope and put them in a row. After this, they cover the poor frashmen with paint and some ingredients like flour, eggs and vinegar. In the end, they are taken to the streets for to ask for money in the traffic.

I think there is a different way to play with the freshmen. We, veterans, could make a recipe to add the ingredients of the new hoax.
Let’s do something different!

Ingredients:

- 20 freshmen

- 10 veterans (or more)

- 3 cups of responsability

- 1 teaspoon of conscience

- And add creativity to taste

After this step, take the freshmen and go to the nearest bar for spend the money who freshmen ask to the people in the traffic. And remember: Drink in Moderation!

One of the best movies of 2008

LARS AND THE REAL GIRL

This movie tells a story about Lars. He’s an introverted man with emotional problems because he has a complicated relationship with your brother. One day, he decides to introduce Bianca, a friend he met on the internet, to your brother and his wife. But they are stunned because Bianca is a life-size doll, not a real person and he is treating her as though she is alive. They consult the family doctor who explains this is a delusion he’s created and everybody has to help him to heal this delusion.

This movie is much funny and it’s about our relationship with other people.

I recommend, to laugh, to cry…

This movie didn’t came to Brazil yet, but in April it’ll released in movie theaters.
