Who am I?

Who am I? 

WE ARE WHAT WE EAT

IF I WERE...

have you ever fall in love?!?

"When I fall in love by Nat King Cole When I fall in love It will be forever Or I'll never fall in love In a restless world like this is Love is ended before it's begun And too many moon light kisses Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun When I give my heart It will be completely Or I'll never give my heart And the moment I can feel that You feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you And the moment I can feel that You feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you" http://letras.terra.com.br/nat-king-cole/67499/traducao.html Do you believe in love? Have you ever fall in love? Would you describe the perfect man/woman for your life?

WOMEN WE ADMIRE

Talking about special women, we could remember their names and the reasons why many different women got into our lives, couldn't we?!?
But, first of all, let's read this wonderful poem...


Man and Woman
by Victor Hugo

Man is the most elevated of creatures,
Woman the most sublime of ideals.
God made for man a throne; for woman an altar.
The throne exalts, the altar sanctifies.

Man is the brain, Woman, the heart.
The brain creates light, the heart, Love.
Light engenders, Love resurrects.

Because of reason Man is strong,
because of tears Woman is invincible.
Reason is convincing, tears moving.

Man is capable of all heroism,
Woman of all martyrdom.
Heroism ennobles, martyrdom sublimates.

Man has supremacy, Woman, preference.
Supremacy is strength, preference is the right.

Man is a genius, Woman, an angel.
Genius is immeasurable, the angel undefinable.

The aspiration of man is supreme glory,
The aspiration of woman is extreme virtue.
Glory creates all that is great; virtue, all that is divine.

Man is a code, Woman a gospel.
A code corrects, the gospel perfects.

Man thinks, Woman dreams.
To think is to have a worm in the brain,
to dream is to have a halo on the brow.

Man is an ocean, Woman a lake.
The ocean has the adorning pearl,
the lake, dazzling poetry.

Man is the flying eagle,
Woman, the singing nightingale.
To fly is to conquer space.
To sing is to conquer the Soul.

Man is a temple, Woman a shrine.
Before the temple we discover ourselves,
before the shrine we kneel.
In short, man is found where earth finishes,
woman where heaven begins.

Job Corner

http://blog.empreendedor5estrelas.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/27388.jpg WHAT CAN YOU DO KNOW If you have to star working today, all you can offer is what you already know. The basic skills you learned in Basic Education are valued in the labor market. If you are a good reader, for example, you can do more tasks than a person that has poor reading skills. The same can be said about math and language skills. Your personal hygiene and manners, too, will make a difference. If you want higher salaries and more recognition at work, you have to learn more. There are many schools that teach technical and general work skills. There are different kinds of courses in universities, with different formats and lengths. There are distance learning programs by mail, on Tv, or on the Internet. What are your current skills that can be used for work? How are you going to prepare to have more skills? VOCABULARY KEY: already= já current= atual mail= correio poor= fraco reader= leitor skill= habilidade task= tarefa to learn= aprender to value= valorizar A. Answer the questions according to the text. 1. What are the kind of things that you can offer in the labor market today? 2. What do you have to do if want a higher salary? 3.

Carnival, " The Greatest Show on Earth"

Carnaval is one of the best-known celebrations today. Carnival is a festival traditionally held in Roman Catholic
Salvador has large Carnival celebrations, including the Axé, typical Bahia music. A truck with giant speakers and a platform where musicians play songs of local genres such as Axé music, Samba-reggae and Arrocha, is driven with the following crowd both dancing and singing. It was originally staged by two Salvador musicians, Dodo & Osmar, in the 1950s. Several cities in the state of Bahia still celebrate Carnaval this way, with as most popular the carnival of Porto Seguro, Ilheus and Itacare.
Did you know?!? The Carnival of Rio de Janeiro is the biggest carnival in the world, and the biggest popular party on the planet, according The Guinness Book of World Records 2010. The Rio de Janeiro Carnival is also considered the world's most famous.

Now, tell us about you during a special carnival party... where did you go? who did you you with? did you meet new interesting people? how was the music? what did you take to your own life after that?

Let´s have a party!!

Think of a good party you've been to or one that was a disaster. Tell us things related to: the gift you took to the host, people you went with, decorations, people you met there, kind of food and drink you had, the music, place...

If I were rich, I would continue working and live a stress-free life.
If I had another job, I'd like to be a dancer.

“Love can keep you healthy
Love someone and express that love, and you’ll have a stronger immune system.
Research shows that acting affectionately – love in general—can improve the effectiveness of your immune system.
Your body produces a compound called phenytethylamines when you’re falling in love. This compound is similar to an amphetamine – a stimulant to your nervous system. This substance feeds your immune system, helping it work more efficiently and effectively.
Of course, the opposite is also true. In the bodies of couples who do not act affectionate and loving with one another, there are decreased levels of antibodies and T-cells that keep invading viruses away.
Conclusion: Find someone to love and care for. If you can’t find a person to love, try a pet. What is important is the act of loving, not what the object of your love is. And if you can’t find a human or a pet, try a plant. Research indicates that even the act of taking care of a garden is good for you.”
Do you agree? Why? Talk to your friends about that…??!?
