BBC learning english

This really is a great web page to learn english, You can find anything you want, even games! [I'm triying to get more than 25 points :(].
I like this page, because you don´t have to pay for a good english lesson, you only have to know the basics, so you can improve your skils.

A good section is "Funky Phrasals", you have many situation and you can listen the audio and read the conversation. They talk about New home, school days, and other topics, oh!, they also talk about party, very important!.

Also I like the "How to..." section, I always think in "how can I say...?", and here is the answer!.

I think, if some day I go to England, I know I have to understand English, but, even more importatn, I have to understand their English. As the same way if yo go to any places on the globe.

In BBC learning english page, the also have a section whit pronunciation and grammar tips, and inside this section they have another called "keep our english up to date", I suppose, as in Spanish, they have new words every year, because the language change.

Looking on the web, I also found a site, not like BBC's site, but maybe it can be useful, an Spanish man site, who talks about his learning of English in London, and the things that could be useful for any Spanish traveler.

It´s really hard to choose my favourite movie... Lets seem, I love animation movies, Pixar in particular.
So if I have to choose one and only one I have to choos a short film: Geri's Game.
I saw it at the first time when I give a birthday present to my girlfriend, It was a dvd with all the pixar shorts [the name also is "Pixar Shorts"], and we spend all daylong seeing it in her house.
And we ussually see it when we remember that we can.

Here is the picture of the main character, Geri... or maybe the main characters...



Don´t you love this little old man, yust seeing him.
I can´t tell you more, because is a short film, but don´t be afraid, we have a magical friend call internet and he [or maybe she] can bring to us his short film whiout pay anything!

so, enjoy it

PD: remember, Pixar also have a lot of others shorts, so, if you can, search for it on the web, or even better buy it. Sattisfaction guarantee.

Best Car Ad Ever

The best commercial... it´s hard to say, there is a lot of good commercials, I cant´remember one, but searching on Youtube.com I findone special...a car advertising



that's what happend if you bought this car, or maybe any really good car. Or maybe this only happened if the couple can share their things. What do you think?

Anyway, I found another Ad, about language training.... [please don't see it if you can understand english xD].



I think it could encourages people to buy the product [in this case, the training], but... can this things happen? I mean, a family listen that music whitout knowing the meaning?
This remember me a song... Hotel california- The Eagles, my mother use to dance it.... a long time ago, but she didn´t now what this mean really.
Here is the lyric. Can you understand the song meaning?

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
'this could be heaven or this could be hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the captain,
'please bring me my wine'
He said, 'we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the hotel california
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'relax', said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!

Bad Idea

February 27th earthquake... Was terrible.
I was in Las Cruces beach, working during the summer. Only 3 days left and we can come back to Santiago.
At 3:34:17, I was sleeping whit my girlfriend and when the movement started I don´t have any idea about what was happenning. Just a moment and we started to hear our workmates screaming and calling us outside. We get some clothes and get out the room; everybody was runing, and we try to do it too, but the gate was closed and we can´t find the keys in the dark [when the earthquake started the ligths go out]; finally we open it, and go up to the hill, only whit a blanket and the money [me girlfriend and I was in charge of the money, a lot of...].
We wait a few hours, until a police patrol told us about the negative of a Tsunami; we went to the beach again [we stay near the beach, too near].

We wait all day long, because there was no comunication or transport, but finaly we came back to Santiago.

The next summer we work here, just in case...

First try ^^

I´m Jorge Rojas Guerrero, I´m Industrial Design student.
This is my first English class, and it looks a litle extrange, because I ussualy dosn´t talk in English [the movies and computer games dosn´t need to do it].

I want to learn as much as I can in the class because the best books about Industrial Design are written in English, and if I wait until they are in Spanish, I can be waiting forever.

Thats all for today, bye.
