Does it need any reason for teatime? (English OT - the first chapter)

[rgb]

Hi folks.
I need english for my Job, because I'm working in a Shipping Company, and our bosses are from Taiwan and don't speak german .
But I also like the english language, because it's a very easy language, compared to german (don't misunderstand me, i'm also good in german ) and other languages, and for me it's fun to learn a language and talk to people from other countries.

Beside my Job, I need english for programming, a lot of tutorials are written in english. And for english subbed Anime.

I was in England for 2 weeks on a... you can call it language journey... with a lot of other young peple, and we visited England, but also learned from English teachers. But that was a long time ago.

English today:
I think, today english is a very important language to learn, and everybody who has the chance to learn that language should do this, because we are going to become more and more a multicultural country.

what have you been doing to this thread? Ò__ó need some real topic, I guess. >__>

...

the same applies to me. it was back in 1999 and it was for 10 days or so. at that time it wasn't really helpful to improve your English skills, but it was rather considered some kind of status symbol like "you have to be there to be someone Ò__ó" or something. >__> eventually, my parents paid it, so I guess it was alright then. there were some interesting places in and around London I would like to see again sometime. well, my semester abroad is still due. §happy

and to come up with some real topic:
what have you been doing during holidays? had a good time or was it rather horrible to spend time with your family?

as i haven't spent much time with my parents so far, it was a good time no really i was barely at home..though i live in a - well -" kaff " there where enough opportunities for me to disappear from their sight, get out and go to the city or somthin' with some of my friends...but i guess the most time i spent with my boyfriend and his mates...and now i'm outta here got to get ready keep on having nice / not so nice holiday! 8)

Well, it was great, but I wasn't able to spend much time with my family XD
I had a lot to do, my report about the "Deutsche Herbst" and good old Schleyer has to be finished, then I had some driving lessons (yay) and spent a lot of time with my friends. And the most important thing... I bought my ticket to Japan In June I'm going to spend over a whole month in Tokyo. It's gonna be great.

Well... I was asking myself... how where people able to improve their English without the internet? O_o Honestly, I wouldn't be able to speak and especially write like this just with the English I learned at school. What about you? Is that such a strange tought...? ^^''

Hi.

Uh, I Don`t have any Idea where I could start ...

I went to America for three Times now - one Time to San Francisco (A Greeaat city, i had to make my examination 'bout it), one time to New York (An even greater city, and such big), and, finally, one time to Florida.

I liked the vacation at New York the best, because it really helped me with my
natural speakin'. Until this awsome trip, i had -you won't believe it - always marks between D and E in my school english. Today, I have an A - and I'm still
holding it ! But, who's interested in my english History ? Yeah, nobody.
So, i'm gonna to tell you something about this great vacation.

Well, in the first week we visited the Central Park, the Empire State Building (Wowy, it's really big !), and some districts like Chinatown and Manhattan Island. Well - exactly seen, we lived in a Hotel at Manhattan Island, so we didn't have to walk that much .
The "National Museum" is awsome, fantastic, and it's really just like in this new movie with Ben Stiller, you know, "Night at the Museum".
The T-Rex is funny, and i made a photo of my Dad's Head, beeing in Rex' Mouth. Well, yes, that's forbidden, but, there wasn't anyone, who saw us, and...
Waah ! I'M SO SORRY !

All in all, it was the best vacation in my whole life !
When i finish school, I'm going to be Au-Pair in America for one year (Maybe you've seen my Thread in this Forum)

Argh. I'm tired now. I am really no night-guy...uah...


Greez,
