My day

This is a normal day in MY LIFE. How is yours? Please write a similar text so I can read about YOUR DAY. Thanks :)

I use to get up early in the morning. Then, I take a shower and have breakfast. I think that breakfast is very important for the day, so I have a GOOD one ;) After that, I go to my desk and start working, I normally work at home in the morning. At around noon, I cook lunch. At around 3 I go to work. I always drive to work because my school is far from my house and the public transportation is not very good. I finish work at around 8 and go home. At nine, I prepare some dinner and watch TV. I go to bed early because I like getting up early too :)

Presentación

Hola a tod@s,

Quería inaugurar este blog con algo fresco, real y sobre todo, de utilidad. Creo que este artículo, muestra un poco las líneas básicas que se pretenden seguir. Me gustaría que fuera un espacio abierto a la creatividad, al intercambio de opiniones, actividades o recursos. Our Little Tree House quiere ser ese lugar donde, sintiéndonos como en casa, nos permita descubrir cosas, compartir emociones y conocer gente similar.

En el camino que se recorre al estudiar una lengua, hay algunos que ya llevan muchos años y otros que acaban de empezar su andadura. Yo espero que todos podamos encontrarnos en Our Little Tree House y aprender de nuestras experiencias.

Con respecto a los contenidos que podrán aparecer por aqui, simplemente decir que fui yo quien creó la casa, pero como dice el título... es nuestra. Así que dependerá de nuestras expectativas y necesidades lo que en ella aparezca.

Así, queda oficialmente inaugurada Our Little Tree House y dejo abierta su puerta de par en par. ¡Adelante amig@!

NEWS! NEWS! NEWS!

I woke up very early this morning. I grabbed a cup of coffee and put on my "working pajamas" (I use sleeping pajamas for all the hours I spend in bed and working pajamas for all the hours I spend in front of my laptop (nearly the same amount)) :) Then I switched on my laptop and opened the door to the "blorld" (blog + world). When I finished creating, editig, designing and so on... I realized I had forgotten to do my "really most favourite activity in the world", reading the online morning news while I have my cup of coffee :(

So, now that I have time, I will take a look at the morning press. If you want to come with me and see "what's the latest", here you have an interesting link: el Kiosko, where you can take a look at some of the most important papers in the world.

I hope you like it :)
