I know It´s not the right way.

Probably, writing in this web I can improve this area of my English but if someone of you can give me another advice, It will be received with a lot of thanks.

Thank you very much!

I created a group in Facebook with the name of my school, and I began to search them. I found some, then They helped me to continue searching others ones. Suddenly We were thirty seven. It was wonderful.

Together We arranged a reunion to have lunch and after to go to pubs.

It was the 23rd of December.

We met at fourteen o´clock.

Firstly We went to our old school and We took some photos with our old teachers. Then had lunch and after We go to pubs.

We danced, talked, laughed and at two a.m. We said goodbye.

I want to arrange another reunion soon...but I have had a big surprise when every classmate has said to me this: "When is the next reunion? It is necessary to repeat it soon!"

Thank you for reading and correcting!

Córdoba has the only one Mosque-Cathedral around the world.

My prefer month there is May. On May the city smells of orange blossom. Courtyards are adorned with a lot of flowers, this event is known as "Los patios". After this, in the squares of Córdoba, people build crosses using flowers and a bar is opened to the public at the same place. It is known as "Las cruces de Mayo" (The May Crosses). It is wonderful.

A week later, the Feria de la Salud (The Health fair)is coming. Then a big space of Córdoba is occupied with a lot of building or marquee gen with music, horses in the streets, women wearing traditional clothes, etc.

Now I live in Sevilla...but another day I'll talk about it.

Thank you for reading and correcting.

At one moment, Paco said to us "I'm going to phone Perales (other of our friends) to say him come here.

Paco went to a nearby telephone box and we, Antonio and me, went with him.

Paco dialed the phone number and He said: "Hello, is Perales there?".

A familiar female voice answered him. "Paco?"

Paco said: "Mum? What are you doing at Perales' home?"

He made a mistake at the moment of dealing the phone number and He rang his home.

Thank you for reading and correcting me.

One time, a middle-age woman arrived in the cash. The woman put a laundry detergent box on the supermarket cash.

Laura took the box, and opened it to check in.

It was surprising!! Into the box there was a big piece of cheese, the woman was stealing.

Laura looked to her with the piece of cheese in the hand.

The women said: "Don´t tell me anything. Have I win a piece of cheese?"

Laura couldn´t stop laughing.

Thank you for reading and correcting.

Their steps made enough sound for being heard by me, so I could know where They were. "Now, They are crossing the corridor, the living room, the other corridor...They are just behind the door of my bedroom"

"Clack" "Clack" They charged their pistols. I knew They wanted kill me. I was going to hide under the bed when I changed the opinion and I hid into the wardrobe.

Previously I put the pillow under the eiderdown, like if I was there.

They quietly opened the door of my bedroom, and They shot, shot and shot to the pillow. Then I went out wardrobe, It was very surprising for them, and I killed them.

I was unharmed, I was alive. Now, I could continue sleeping.

"Wake up! Wake up!" I felt your breath in my face. I listened your heartbeats but you didn´t open your eyes.

At that moment, a thin rain started to fall on the land. Your body begun getting wet and cold. I couldn´t do anything.

Suddenly, I listened a female voice. It said "Manuel wake up, you have to go to the school, riaght now!" She was my mother.

All this was just a bad dream, a terrible nighmare about you, my love.

Thank you in advance!

However, I need to eat everyday! So I have to cook. Cooking isn´t one of my plans :)

Today I am going to cook fish, specifically gilt-head. I think I will make oven back fish, just with a little of salt and lemon. Maybe I will add some pepper.

I am going to fry some potatoes for adding them to the fish.

Mmmm Now I am very hungry so I leave you. I going to cook!

Bye.

I have had to study one chapter about Criminal Law. It is very large and difficult and I have needed a lot of time to work in it.

The other one is a meet with the doctor. Two weeks ago I injured myself in the knee, I suffered a sprain, so today I have gone to the hospital and there a magnetic resonance has been done to me.

On next Monday, I have to go to the hospital again for taking the result of it.

In conclusion, this time (now) is the only one I worked my English today.

Thank you for reading and correcting.

(Today I have tried to explain some situation which are not easy doing to me)

Some days ago, at my parent´s home, I was talking with my sister, Sonia. She is an english teacher for some children in an private english academy, at the north of Córdoba, Spain.

She showed me a book called "The Tao of Pooh" by Benjamin Hoffman. At the beginning of the book there is a sentence which says: "A fly can´t bird, but a bird can fly"

I didn´t know the mean of the first mean of "bird", I was crazy. I searched it in "wordreference web", but I could not find its mean. So, I asked Sonia and She said me: "Bird, like a verb means cazar"

After this, I promised me, I never will forget it.

Thank you for reading and correcting.

I am a magician but it is not my job, I work in other matter related with laws.

When I was twelve years old I found a magic book in my grandfather´s library: "Magia, Ilusionismo y Prestidigitación" ( I don't translate this words because the three mean the same in english) of Antonio de Armenteras.

I read it very quicly. It was fantastic...but I left the hobbie.

Some years later, when I was twenty-three years old I recovered the hobbie. I bought one book : "Cartomagia fundamental" (Basic magic with cards) of Vicente Canuto and I bought some decks to practice.

Today I have a lot of books of magic, over thirty. I am a good magician and I enjoy when people enjoy watching my performances.

If sometime you are in Sevilla and you want to enjoy, contact with me. We can have one or two beers while I am acting for you.

Thank you for read and correct.

There are only seventy five capacity for all spanish so I think It will be very hard to pass.

However if I don't try it I know I will be repentant.

One of the tests is an english exam. It is written and oral.

When the day will come I tell you about how it was.

Bye and thanks.

Before I started to read this book, I read "The Pillars of the Earth" and "World without end" They both are awesome but I prefer "The Pillars of the Earth" if I have to choose one.

When I finish to read "The Fall of the Giants", I want to read "The Name of the Wind" of Patrick Rothfuss. I think I will like it.

Thanks to read and correct.
