A very good day in my life

I very good day in my life was when I Cruzeiro won the Brazilian´s Championship of football, in 2003. I was very happy because was the best trophy I had seen the Cruzeiro win. I did party and all the people on the streets were happy. I will never forget. In the last game in the championship, Cruzeiro won 7 x 0 of the Bahia. That was wonderful.

Bye bye,

Letter to Stephanie

Dear Stephanie,

I´m fine and you?

Of course I can tell about ours friend, Jonh. He´s 20, has one brother and one sister, and study with me, in UFMG. He studies History.

I think he is shy with the people who he don´t know, but with him friend, he are very sociable, and he has lots of friends. He is very responsible, he coordinated an NGO that had over 100 people. He is awesome.

He likes football, he already played in Cruzeiro, and he likes volleyball too. Moreover, likes going out seeing films, and listening country music.

The negative things are: he is shy with the people who don´t know and he is lazy with the things from home. He don´t make the bed, and help in other things. I think is that´s all.

Best wishes

Fred

a photography of your that you like

errrr….

a photography of your that I like

Guys, instead of I post a photo mine, I’ll post a picture which I took when I was learning about photography.

This photo was taken at Praca da liberdade. It was on a cloudy Monday and we had to practice what we learnt one week before. This day was good; I could take many photos, diferents angles, make a lot of mistakes, lol, and have fun.

I felt exhaust after all but as my grandma’ says, "Sweetheart, no pain, no gain", right?

A good day in my life

Hi guys, how is going?

I would like to tell you about what I think about what is a good day for me. A good day for me is when I can get something I’ve been working a lot for. When I joined the university and started studying Design, when I got a job placement, etc; these are moments which I felt very happy. Simple things as when someone call me to say that missed me, spent my time with who I love, all these moments also make my days pleasant and good.

There are many sites on web about learning English or another language. I think is extremely important to expose ourselves a language which we are studying. For example, every morning when you are reading news or checking your e-mails, you can read some tips about English. You can register your email on these websites and receive updates, newsletters, etc.

You can download podcasts and listen to them when you are walking or waiting your bus arrives on your destination.

These links are blog which I subscribed my email and receive news posts and articles daily or weekly.

Cheating the exam

I owed this post :p
I remember of a time I saw a friend cheating in a geography exam.
We were on the fifth grade in the school. When the teacher gave us the tests, this guy even had told something like “Ohh, this is so easy!”. A few minutes later, he let a piece of paper fall to the ground.
Then, our teacher catch him and he started to cry: “I confess! I was cheating, please, forgive me Mrs!”
I was ashamed by him and I never forgot his reaction. Because of this, I would never cheat in a exam on my life (only at the fundamental school, of course! hahahah)

I hope you’re well. Thanks for your e-mail.

She likes listenning to music (not noisily), to make manufatures and seein films. She doesn’t take noise. She’s happy to do things with her hands. She has one sister and one brother and she lives with them. Her parents lives in another city.

The only negative things I can think of are that she’s a bit manpulative and her english is a bit bad. But I’m sure she’ll learn fast because she has a good pronunciation.

I think you and your family will get on well with her. If you need any more information about her, will can be send me a new e-mail.

My house

I live in a detached house located at neighborhood Cidade Nova, northeast region in Belo Horizonte (the biggest city in Minas Gerais). It is a beautiful and big house.

It has 5 bedrooms, because I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters. Apart from that It has 2 living roms, 1 computer room and 6 bathrooms. I like it, because in my house I can rest without anyone bothering and I can play soccer or gardening with my mother.

The neighbourhood is good and friendly, but forward my house has a school. That´s too bad. Three times a day the students make much noise and bother everybody.

My house is suitable for rest, but when the students don´t are arriving or leaving school. Even so I don´t change my house. I love living in it.

Bye bye,

Fred

A free topic

In july I was at Mineralogy Museum Prof. Djalma Guimarães located in "Praça da Liberdade" in Belo Horizonte. This museum, known as Queen of Scrap Iron. It has been the most controversial and polemic building in the city. This is in itself an interesting tourist attraction. Inside, there is an extensive collection of almost three thousand pieces. Around 800 of these are on display, picturing the importance of mining in Minas Gerais. I liked a lot because I study mining engeering and is very important to learn many things aobut minerals and rocks.

The museum has several copies known as diamonds, topaz, aquamarines and other rare minerals, along quartzite, slate, metal sheets and other industrial mineral sub-products are displayed in pedestals.

If you like that things or study about minerals I recommend to visit the Mineralogy Museum.

That´s all. Bye, bye.

A day at the museum
In the last week, my friends and I went to Inhotim, a museum of contemporany art, in Brumadinho, Minas Gerais. There were beautiful gardens, with exotic plants and outdoor’s works. There were paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographies, videos and installations by renowned Brazilian and international artists. In some galleries is possible to interact with the works, for example, a room full of “bad cloth” and you can throw. In my opinion, contemporany art is very subjective, because each person understand a different thing in each work.

Very good day

A very good day in my life was the day that I know that I had passed the college exams at UFMG. I was working when a friend called me and said: "Congratulations". I didn’t understand anything (I didn’t know that the result had already) and I thought: “I think she's a little late because my birthday was last week ...". So, I asked her why the congratulations and she told me that I had passed. My eyes filled with tears and I thanked this moment. Then I tell my boss and he said about everyone in the company. I called my parents and my friends. Anyway, that day I couldn’t work anymore! But my boss didn’t care, after all is not every day that passed in the dreamed and suffered vestibular !

The photograph

This photo was taken on holiday this year in July, on the farm "Vale Verde”. Where is produced the “cachaça vale verde”. the place is very beautiful, and you can see the still, there are a restaurant, has a very large green area. The farm also birds are bred in captivity, some species threatened with extinction, such as "Arara Azul”. Well, in this picture are two friends, Leticia and Ana Paula and me. And who took the photo was another friend, Daliane. They are my friends since high school. We met the first day of classes and we are friends today. We do not see very often, as each one chose a different path, different colleges, but whenever we vacation, we are to “put the talks in days”. that day was very enjoyable and fun.

A letter:

Hi stephanie
Well, my friend is called Marcela, she is 23 years old and lives with his parents, no brothers. It’s a person who loves the family and is always present in his uncles and grandparents’ houses. She studies in my class, a future biologist, and works in a sccience museum. it is a very friendly, loves to talk, likes to read and listen to music.And especially likes to go out dancing. I think the negative thing may be that your English is very basic, but it is a very sociable and nice.

My attitude to money

I think money is important, because doens’t have what you can do without it. However, money is not the most important thing, and it’s not the thing I'm worried. I think having money, for I want a home, family, travel, live and have quiet time to worry about things it’s really important: people, work and knowledge. Other values more important than money.

A time you saw or met a celebrity

I went to the Nando Reis’ show with some friends. The show was very good, very excited, we had fun. In the end, a friend and I went to the bathroom and when we come back we were a mass of people talking to the security and then he said: "quiet people, everyone will go." My friend pulled me by the hand and we entered through people. We arrived at the singer's dressing room, talked with him,took pictures and got autographs! I lost the picture, but I still have the autograph!
He is very friendly and we received very well.

I gotta keep this to my children:

This is a pretty creative resume for the Second War:

Very funny animation. I hope you like. ;D

One celebrity...

I don’t know if everybody knows, but in the last year I was a model and I did some fashion shows. I always saw many celebrities, but in this case, I had the opportunity to talk with one.

This happened in one fashion show called “Katuxa Fashion Way” in Divinópolis, MG.

I was drinking water with one model in the backstage – she was smoking – and the celebrity (his name is Ricardo Pereira, his is Globo’s actor) approached for ask “fire” to light his cigarette. We were talking a moment, until the cigarettes ran out! He would parade too.

About money...

I would be happy to live with less money and fewer possessions.

I’ve never want to be a rich or millionaire girl. I think the money is a important thing in our life because we society is capitalist, so the money is important, but not the most important. I need money just to have a comfortable and safe life. I need a small and cute house, a small and economic car, a few clothes, a few shoes and another things to live well. Today a person who have so much money don’t live quietly, she never had a safe life. She lives always with fear, and this is one reason more to me don’t want to much money for my life. I want and I need money but not to much.

Helder - Homework

1 -   Do not miss the opportunity to rent this beautiful house! It's a detached house in the suburbs of Contagem.

2 -   It has been expanded recently, and now it has a second floor with a room which can be used as (almost)anything you need, like a bedroom, a tv room or an office, for example, and two bedrooms, each one with a bathroom and a wardrobe attached. From one of these bedrooms you can see Serra do Curral with some of Belvedere's buildings and Alta Vila Tower, Serra da Piedade and the Mineirão Stadium. On the Reveilón, you can have a great view of Pampulha's fireworks too.
In the first floor, it has two living rooms, two bathrooms, a spacious dinning room(could I call it a hall?) and the kitchen. The water from the showers and the kitchen sink comes from a solar heating system.
Outside, there's two balconies, on the front and on the backyard, where the laundry is. On the backyard there's also a patio with another small bathroom, that makes it a perfect space for parties. There's also small areas that can be used for planting, where there's already some fruit trees, like Passion Fruit, Fig, Jaboticaba, Lemon, Grape, Tangerine, Apple, Pomegranate, Pitanga(Brazilian cherry?) and coffee trees, and often some mangos fall from the neighbour's house into the backyard.

There's two different attics, and a small room attached to the fence behind the house, that can be used to keep tools, gardening material or whatever you want (dead bodies? Just kidding).

3 -   It's near the main avenue of the neighbourhood, where you find bakeries, drugstores, supermarkets and bus stops at a walking distance. Fortunately the house is away enough from avenue's noise.

4 -   It's a perfect house for one or even two families, with no restriction for smoking, children or pets.
