María José

Hi everybody!! How´s it going??
I´m fine but I miss our English classes. I have no time to study English now, so, in a short time, I can not understand you because I´m sure your level will improve a lot this year.
My daugther is already hapier in Irleland and she seems to be adapted a little better.
My father continues his treatment and he is more or less well.
How about you??I hope you are all ok.
Regards. XXXOOO. María José.

In the next days we have to go with her to the doctor and dentist.And after that we'll go to the beach because it's very hot here.

Bye,bye....

holidays!!!!

Hello, English friends!!!

Today I'm not working because I worked yesterday morning.

Last Friday I was at school's party and it was very good. The children were the most important and they were happy. Our English teacher danced two times with the children and it was fantastic. She was exhausted and very very happy. The biggest said good-bye to the school because they have to go to the Institut the next September. They received a present and a pen that contain a lot of photographs since they were 3 years old. Today they have gone to Granada for 3 days and after it they go to holidays with their families.

Are we going to go together to say good-bye our ideal teacher?

If it can't be possible I wish you a good holiday and we'll see the next September.

I have been very happy with all you during this year and I have learnt a lot of you and , of course, of our better English teacher.

Bye,bye.

Bye,bye.....

THE CORRECTIONS AGAIN (M Jose)

Hi everyone! How it´s going?

As I told you this morning, I wrote each correction in the corresponding text, because I thought it´s better for us if we have the original text nearer, but if someone doesn´t want to look for it, I also copy here.

The following correction corresponds to a text of April called María José rewrites Eliseo´s story.

I´m not going to write the full text because it´s so long, I´ll just write the setences that need correcting, ok?
1. From María José´s text:
Hi Everyone: I´m going to rewrite Eliseo´s text, with corrections Karen made. At least, I´ll try!...
Instead of "When he becomes rich and go out from the wardrobe", we say "When he becomes rich and COMES OUT of the wardrobe". And in the same paragraph, instead of "...to make a trip to Florence" we say "to TAKE a trip to..."
Next paragraph, the last sentence, I wrote "I hope Carmen ignore it" and I forgot the "S", so, it´s "I hope Carmen IGNORES it" (unforgivable mistake, sorry).
Next paragraph, about Miriam I wrote "...the change must be for blue not for redish" and the correct form is "Miriam should go for blue highlights not for reddish ones".
And finally, about Eliseo, instead of "Eliseo is a bit crazy but we appreciated him", we say "Eliseo is a bit mad but we still apreciate him, do we?".

2. Regarding the comment by Carmen:
Instead of "...To go to Scotland for a trip you could be our another teacher..." we say "to go ON a trip you could be our OTHER teacher..." and "if Miriam goes to SPA" would be "If Miriam goes to A spa".
And the last sentence "I think that Eliseo is a bit clampsy but he is improving her english and he wants we were interested in blog", would be "I feel that Eliseo is a bit clumbsy but he is imporving his English. He also wants us to be interested in the blog"

3. About Miriam´s comment, Karen has written:
I want to thank Marijo and congratulate her for her good English (I (Karen) gave her the corrections!!). I feel one has to accept your high level in English and try to be less jealous as it is damaging to one´s health.If he doesn´t change he will not come to the cinema with us nor to the SPA either.
Thanks to Carmen for being Carmen. She is as good that has an excuse for Eliseo. You are more than a woman, you are a Saint!
Thanks to Karen for consoling me.
You are all the best mates I could ever have. Bye.

Well, I think that´s all. I hope not to have many mistakes.



Now, these corrections corresponds to a text from Eliseo called The Exam!! (of April too).

The last paragraph, instead of "Finally I remember to all people that payday is today althought I don´t agree with Karen. I am thinking that Marijo an me are working as secretaries and we have to pay less money. Still Karen can invite us to GIN FIZZ " is "Finally, I REMIND EVERYONE that today is payday. However/Although, I don´t agree with Karen because I believe Marijo and I are working as secretaries and so have a right to pay less!! Karen could buy us a GINFIZZ instead!!

About Miriam´s comment, Karen said "Eliseo could be a conference/congress shorthand typist".

And regarding Carmen´s comment, Karen said "This is an effective way to remember what we learn at English class".

That´s all folks.

Hello English friends!!!!
Yesterday I read a magazine about the Royal English wedding.
It is interesting because it speak about the dress, the make up, the ornaments, the flowers, the invitations , the bridge's family ,the kiss but the most important is that it's a dream made reality.
The bridge was pretty and elegant and he was very smart. They are in love and they had married at Westminster Abbey in London.
A lot of Royal Houses went to the wedding and our queen and our princes too.
This has been an important acounment for Royal English House.

ANSWER TO CARMEN´S INVITATION

Hi Carmen:

Many thanks for your invitation but I´ve just seen it. I like very much your interest to explain the Fair of April in Seville althougt you works a lot but I think that you enjoy very much. I remember the preparations to go to Rocio (the little village of pilgrimage in Huelva) in my father´s house. The smart dress of the women were hanged around the house and the complements near them. My father and me rode the horses 2 or 3 months before the time of the pilgrimage and tested the dress (the little jacket, the short trousers, the marsellés jacket and the sajones). Also I remember one ornament hanged in the trousers (its name is "caireles").

See you tomorrow mates.

Feria of April.

Hey English friends, I'm a bit sad because nobody read my text about the Easter so I've decided to write another about " Feria of April". I would like to know which is your opinion if it's possible.

I like very much the Feria of April of Seville. I think that it's an important event in our city.It's seen around the world by a lot of television channels so we must to give a good print.
It's an important economic event because a lot of workers working these days even before the begining of the Feria.

It's a traditional to wear typical dress. The women wear a fantastic flamenco dress with beautiful accesories as earrings,bracelets,necklaces and flowers of different colors.
The men wear another typical suit but only if you're going to ride a horse.The men wear special trousers with a white shirt and an special jacket.Also they wear a typical hat.

We can enjoy visiting our friends in other "casetas",dancing "sevillanas" ( that is the typical dancing of Seville),singing ,eating and drinking "rebujito"(not remojito) or white wine.
The children enjoy a lot because they play with their friends in the "caseta", they look the horses and they like a lot the attractions.
The Feria of April of Seville starts on Monday evening with the lighting and finish the following Sunday with the fireworks.

If you are going to visit the Feria you can go to my "caseta" that is situated at Costillares street named GEMAS or you can phone me (617139010). If I see you we can drink something and eat together.

I hope you enjoy a lot at Feria.

Bye,bye......

Easter week

Hello english friends!!!

I'm happy because the Easter week is next, the next Sunday until the following Sunday.
These are very fantastic days in Seville. I hope the weather was good, without hot and without rain.
It's fantastic because you can see a lot of art in the streets without you need to go to museum.
The streets are clean and there are some windows that put red flags on it.
It's very excitant to see how the "pasos" walk along the streets and how they turn the corners.
I think it's art.
The smell is very singular because it's a mix of flowers and incense.
The people are dressed very well,smart. The men generally are with suit jackets and ties. The women are with elegants dress and the children are dressed with formal dress .
It's tradition that everybody wear some new clothes and sometimes it's a problem because if your shoes are new they can hurt you.

Normally the family go together to see the "pasos" and they enjoy all the day.

The mothers are an important person in this time because they prepare everything at home. They iron the clothes, cook "torrijas" and another typical food and they are awabe of everything . If your child is a " nazareno" you have more work because you have to prepare the typical clothes ,buy the candies and go all the time with him because he can need water, food, more candies or maybe he can be tired.

So, I like it very much also I have more work than another person but I think that my child is the most "nazareno" in the world.

I apologize you

I could de last friday because my wifes was ill and went to the doctor, I look forward apologize you me. I enyoy with you because are a god person. I would like you talks me how was the pyjama!s boy of streak. I think that Karens not happy whit me but I don!t know.

Finally I remember to all people that payday is today althought I don´t agree with Karen. I am thinking that Marijo an me are working as secretaries and we have to pay less money. Still Karen can invite us to GIN FIZZ not GIN and tape water.



That´s all folks.

We´ll see in the news of the british broadcasting corporation

Mariajosé rewrites Eliseo´s story

Hi Everybody!!
Karen told me if I could write again Eliseo´s text with the corrections she made, so I´m going to trying it:


I was angry because Karen and Marijo went to the cinema and they didn´t let me know. I really wanted to watch a subtitled film but I didn´t, so I´m really disappointed. Eliseo pulled a long face when he knnew that those wonderful women had gone to the cinema without him.

It doesn´t matter, I´ve seen the film "The child in the striped pyjamas" several times. I´d rather go to the cinema. I also prefer to go on my own because the girls are great chatterboxes!! Although I´ll no doubt go altogether soon.
Marijo had not heard about the film "The King´s speech", me neither. They thought Eliseo is very clumsy and he could spoil their secret plan.

Last Wednesday, Marijo was in the corner although the Bar is on the corner. I could hear her with my own ears. The way she speaks English sets my hair on edge. (Is it really so horrible?). She has a very cool head.

Today, the eighteenth March, Pepe was extra late as he always has affairs to deal with and sort out. He even turned a deaf ear when spoke about the breakfast fine. Even though it seems unreal, he is improving in his English amazingly!! He is always thinking about business. He´d like to sign an exclusive contract with "Pablo de Olavide University". When he becomes rich and go out from "ropero", he´ll be more generous and will travel all over the world. He might even invite us to make a trip to Florence, the most elegant city in the world. Don´t we wish?

As for Carmen, she is the busy nurse, she is always answering calls and saving lives, she lives in a happy world. She gets a pat on the back from everyone for doing such a good job!! She likes to give a helping hand to the poorly people. Purple suits her down to the ground and I suggest she makes a purple gypsy dress with a little bag around the leg. (I hope Carmen ignore it)

And now Miriam, well, she is always changing her look. She was an unruly girl, but now, she is a very sensible person (more o less, this is what I think he meant). I tell her: Relax! Let your hair down for a change!. I think the change must be for blue not for redish. She certainly brings a breath of fresh air to a stuffy atmosphere!! In the long run, she´ll live in a SPA full of Bach´s flowers. (May I go with her??)

Last Wednesday our teacher was having an argument with another mother, heatedly discussing some sort of matter with her. Two of a kind she very quiet and relaxed versus Karen with boiling blood running through her Scottish veins. (This part is very hard to understand for me). I don´t agree with you. That can´t be true! You´re pulling my leg...You always criticize me behind my back.
In the Bar, Pepe and Marijo were very angry. Marijo had many things to do and Pepe was losing a lot of business (because he´s learning English for his business). Miriam was relaxed thinking about her new look.
Hence, this Friday, Karen was very sorry and wanted to invite us to a complete English breakfast, not. We had to make do with toast and tomatoes which is better anyway. So, Karen said: It´s my shout. Even though it doesn´t seem real I´m innocent and I´m going to buy a ticket to Scotland in low season.

Definitely, Eliseo is a bit crazy, he´s like a goat (We would say), but we appreciated him.

Finaly, I´ve finished. I´m exhausted!!

See you all on Wednesday. Have a great weekend!.

Hi Carmen!!
I know you are out for the weekend now. I hope you are having a great time.
I only wanted to tell you I wish that the letter from the hospital was good news. I didn´t want to call you on Friday because I knew you were very busy working and making your "ensaladilla", but I thought about that.
Well, I´ll see you on Wednesday.

I think the kind learnig inglish the same Eliseo although I don!t like hamburguer.


jajajajajajajajajaja.

Where are the chips?

I think that maybe this is a good kind of learning english for Pepe and Eliseo,don't you?

BREAKFAST WITH KAREN STORIES

EIGTHTEENTH OF MARCH STORY

I was angry with Karen because she and Marijo were to the cinema together and they didn´t let me known it. I wanted to watch a subtitle film  and I couldn´t and I felt disapointed. Eliseo pulled a long face when he knew that the bad women went to the cinema without him.

It doesn´t matter I watched “Monna Lisa” and “The child on a striped pyjama” four o five times. Although I prefer go to the cinema alone because they are chatterboxes.

Marijo hadn´t heard about the film “the king´s speech”, me neither.  They thought Eliseo is very clumsy and he could spoil their secret plan with …….

Last Wednesday, Marijo was in the corner althougt the Bar is on the corner. I could hear her with my ears. The way she speaks English sets my hair on edge. She has a very cool head.

Today, Pepe was on late, he is a typical andalusian man, he turned a deaf ear when we speak about the breakfast ticket. He is improving a lot your English although he is always thinking about your business (all maters include a business). He would like to sign an exclusive business contract with “Pablo de Olavide University”. When he got to be a rich man he´ll go out from “ROPERO” and he will be more generous and then he´ll be the smartest man in the world an he travels and travels, NOT A TRAVEL, around the world. He will invite us make a trip to FLORENCE the most elegance town in the world.

Carmen is the busy nurse, she is always answering calls and saving lives. She lives in a happy world. She get a pat on the back to every people for doing such a good job. She wants to give a hand to poor person. Purple suits her down to the ground and I suggest she make a purple gypsy dress with a little bag around the leg.

Miriam is always changing your look. She needs looks unruly girl but nowadays isn´t easy. She is an alternative woman who got the common sense. I tell her: relax¡ Let your hair down for a change. I think the change will be for blue not for reddish. She will bring a break of fresh air and will relieve the stuffy ambient. In the long run she will live in a SPA full of bach flowers.

Last Wednesday (I apologise for not being able to come) Karen was talking to Alessandro,s mother (Elena), she was discussing her. Karen was saying: I can´t understand this, It´s above my head. You are very quite and relax and I am an impulsive woman with Scottish blood.

I don´t agree you. That can´t be true! You are pulling my leg …. Elena. You always criticise me behind my back.

In the bar Marijo and Pepe were very angry. Marijo had many things to do and Pepe was losing a lot of business (because he is learning English for your business). Miriam was very relaxed thinking about your new look.

This Friday Karen was sorry with his action and wanted amend it and said:  It´s my shout. I want you to invite to complete breakfast because eventhough it doesn´t seen real I am innocent and I am going to buy a ticket to Scotland in the low season (is more cheap). 

Bye, Bye

He made a clean

The way they treated the animals made my blood boil.

She got a pat on the back for doing such a good job.

He turned a deaf ear to my request for more money.

They always criticise her behind her back.

I can´t understand this. It´s way above my head.

That´s just what i was going to say. You took the words right out of my mouth.

Relax. Let your hair down for a change.

Could you give me a hand with this ladder?

That can´t be true. You are pulling my leg.

You´ve really put your foot in this time! Whatever made you say such a thing.

We were all shocked but she didn´t turn a head

He was too frightened to say it to her face.

We could wait for the next bus. On the other hand we could walk.

She pulled a long face when we told her our plans.

You know what a sweet tooth he´s got so don´t leave that box of chocolates lying around.

About Conversation Student 1:

Mr Hobday is the owner of several hotels and a business person called Mr Freshwater is trying to get in touch with him, that´s why he phones to Mr Hobday´s secretary. The secretary answers the phone and Mr. Freswater told her that he is interested to speak with Mr. Hobday, she told him that he is not there now, but if he wants she can take a message. Mr. Freshwater tells her he prefers to phone again later and asks her when he can do it, she asks him for a moment because she needs to look his diary, then, she explains him that her boss will be busy all day and he won´t come back at the office until four o´clock, so Mr Freshwater tells her that he´ll phone then.

Tina Brown is a journalist who is trying to get hold of Lady Alice Cooper. So, Miss Brown phoned Lady Alice and her secretary told her that she won´t there. The secretary asked if she could help her and Miss Brown explained that she works for a very important magazine and is interested to have a interview with Lady Alice to write an article about her. The secretary looked Lady Alice´s diary and told Miss Brown that she was very busy today, but probably from 4.00 she´ll be at home, so she may try phone again then.

LITTLE MISS BIRTHDAY (TODAY IS MY REAL BIRTHDAY)

Little Miss Birthday enjoys every day because every day is someone´s birthday (like today is the mine) and Little Miss Birthday loves birthday presents! She loves choosing presents, she loves wrapping presents, and she loves giving presents,

And she is very good at choosing presents. Little Miss Birthday prides herself on always picking the perfect present.

However fussy the person might be.

Fussy = Quisquilloso, exigente, maniático.

Last year, she gave Mr Fussy a tiny iron for ironing his shoe laces. It was exactly what he wanted. Nobody is sure if they have ever seen Mr Fussy look quite so happy.

Tiny: minúsculo.

She gave Little Miss Star a radio wich gives her a round of applause every time she turns it on.

And she gaves Mr Bump a bed with no legs. No more going bump in the night for Mr Bump when he falls out of bed.

Placa conmemorativa de la primera YMCA americana en Montreal.
La Asociación Cristiana de Jóvenes, más conocida por las siglas de su nombre en inglés: YMCA (Young Men's Christian Asociation, The Y como se conoce popularmente o La Guay como se pronuncia en algunos países americanos) es un movimiento social juvenil de raíces protestantes extendido por todo el mundo. Por sus actividades se puede identificar como una de las mayores y más antiguas ONG. A nivel internacional está integrada por más de 120 organizaciones nacionales autónomas repartidas por los cinco continentes, aunque su implantación sea desigual. El mayor arraigo se da en países anglosajones, de cultura protestante y en los países donde han extendido su influencia ingleses y estadounidenses.

[editar] Historia
Sir George Williams fundó la YMCA el 6 de junio de 1844 en Londres, durante la Revolución industrial, motivado por las duras condiciones del trabajo y la tendencia al juego y a la bebida de los jóvenes. El objetivo de Williams y de la YMCA es el desarrollo integral de los jóvenes desde los ideales cristianos. En 1851 se crearon las primeras asociaciones americanas en Montreal y Boston. En agosto de 1855 se celebró en París la primera convención internacional. Una de las primeras asociaciones en América Latina es la YMCA Argentina fundada el 6 de mayo de 1902 en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires.[1] El 6 de abril de 1909, nace la ACJ - YMCA en Montevideo, Uruguay[2] y en 1912 abre la YMCA de Valparaíso, Chile.
Durante la Primera Guerra Mundial la YMCA inglesa viajó al frente con los jóvenes soldados para darles apoyo, alojamiento, comida, papel, etc.
Deportes de gran popularidad como el baloncesto y el voleibol fueron inventados a finales del siglo XIX dentro de la YMCA en Estados Unidos. El fútbol de salón fue creado y reglamentado en 1930 por profesores de la ACJ - YMCA de Montevideo. Estos deportes fueron difundidos a nivel internacional por sus representaciones. En los años 70 el grupo musical Village People les dedicó un tema pegadizo con coreografía, que 30 años después sigue sonando diariamente.
En 1946 John Raleigh Mott, presidente de la Alianza Mundial de Asocianes Cristianas de Jóvenes, recibió el Premio Nobel de la Paz por su labor con los refugiados de Guerra.
La YMCA colaboró activamente con Robert Baden-Powell para la fundación del Movimiento Scout Mundial.
[editar] Imagen
Las organizaciones afiliadas emplean logotipos diversos, empleando como elemento común un triángulo equilátero apoyado en un vértice; blanco con un borde grueso de color rojo. Este triángulo representa la equidad o equilibrio que busca la asociación infundir en los jóvenes, la importancia de un equilibrio entre el espiritú, la mente y el cuerpo.
En Argentina, el logotipo principal está constituído por un círculo colorado con una P y una X (que conforman el símbolo de la Eucaristía Cristiana), y un triángulo cuyas aristas poseen las inscripciones Alma, Mente y Cuerpo. En el centro, se aprecia una Biblia abierta con la cita bíblica de Juan 17, 21 que invita a la unidad fraterna entre los seres humanos, Cristo y Dios.
[editar] Actividades
La actividad de la YMCA incluye instituciones educativas, residencias, escuelas nocturnas, campamentos juveniles y grupos deportivos. Existen universidades cuyo origen se debe a la YMCA. Actividades diversas para edades, economías, culturas y credos distintos en cada zona o país.
[editar] YWCA
Existe una organización análoga, la YWCA (Young Women's Christian Asociation) completamente independiente. En la actualidad, las actividades de una y otra tienen carácter abierto a ambos sexos.

GRAPES AT THE STROKE OF NEW YEAR´S EVE

The tradition of taking the twelve grapes dates back only to the beginning of our century. The implementation of this custom, which, incidentally, is unique to our country, not because of religion or culture, but rather to mere economic interests. On New Year's Eve 1909, the growers, in a desperate effort of imagination, they got rid of surplus grapes in the year inventing the ritual of taking the grapes of luck on the last night of the year
