Mother.

Happy mother's day for every mother in the world... Congratulations for all of you great mothers... The base of our life...

Thank you Mom

What's up everybody?

I'm here again to show you a song from Good Charlotte called Thank you Mom. This song describes how the twins(Joel and Benji Madden) feel about their mother. Their father left them when the twins were 15 and then their mother, Mrs. Robbin Madden, started being mother and father at the same time. They were a single parent family but they were very happy together, like the song shows us up! If you wanna know, Joel and Benji has a sister(Sarah) and a brother(Josh).

So, that's a tribute for single moms! Hope you enjoy it!

Mother's Day

Hello everybody!
I was thinking about Mother's Day and I had an ideia! We could post, here in the blog, some songs, movies, reports even games wich remind us of our moms.
Let's do this tribute for our moms! And if you wanna put something about your grandmothers, that's ok because they're our second mothers!
What do you think about this ideia?

I'll start with some poems just to illustrate!

Grandmothers

Grandmothers are mothers who are grand,
Restoring the sense that our most precious things
Are those that do not change much over time.
No love of childhood is more sublime,
Demanding little, giving much on demand,
More inclined than most to grant the wings
On which we fly off to enchanted lands.
Though grandmothers must sometimes serve as mothers,
Helping out, or maybe taking over,
Each has all the patience wisdom brings,
Remembering our passions more than others,
Singing childish songs we long remember.




FOR MOMS

She was there at the beginning
When the world was new to you -
She was there to turn to happy times
Those when, you were hurt or blue.

She was there to listen to your thoughts
And when you asked, to give advice -
She was there to tell you, "Those don't match!"
Or, "Hon, you sure look nice."

She was there with you at nighttime
To help you say your prayers _
She was there to tell you, "It's alright."
When you had a dream that scares.

She was there at morning time
To get you up and out of bed -
She was there when you didn't feel good (or did)
To say, "You'd best stay home, instead."

She was there when you were hungry
And when you had those dirty clothes -
She was there when you needed her
(How she knew? Only heaven knows.)

She was there at the beginning
And she'll be there your whole life through -
She'll be there in your mind and heart
Just like a mother is supposed to do.

See you soon guys!

New template!

Hi everyone!!!!
I'm here, still alive!!! lolololol

Wee, as you can see, our friend Camila tried to change the template of the site, I think it was cool but a bit too dark, let's try to make it a lighter color but keeping the stuff on the side of the page, it's cool!!!

Now, concerning her a post about deleting everything, chill out, all the posts are still here, but organized in a different way, if you check the side bar , the list of posts is still there, by clicking on them you can see your posts.

HOWEVER, HERE GOES AN IMPORTANT TIP: EVERTIME YOU TRY CHANGING THE TEMPLATE, TWO THINGS SHOULD BE DONE:

• FIRST: COPY AND PASTE IN A WORD PAGE ALL THE HTML OF THE PREVIOUS PAGE IN CASE ANYTHING GOES WRONG;
• AND, IN ORDER TO PLAY SAFE, TAKE THE TIME AND EFFORT TO COPY AND SAVE EVERYBODY'S POSTS, THEY'RE VALUABLE TO ALL OF US!!!

Missing all of you a lot, thanks for the messages I got while I was ill, I'm much better now and will be back on Friday!
Hope to see all of you there!!!!

a bunch of kisses for you!!!

Sorry!!!

Hey everybody!

I was looking for new layouts for our blog and as you can notice I found it. I was doing a kind of test with this layout just to know if it would work, but unfortunately I erased all the other things that you guys posted here. I'm so sorry! It wasn't my intention! Oh! I got this layout from this site: www.pyzam.com! Hope you're not too angry with me! See you soon! And, one last time, I'm sorry!

Money for Nothing?

Nowadays, if anyone want to study in a university, he/she have to pass on "vestibular", every university on Brazil uses this method, but we've too a test called "enem", used by the government to avail the level of the courses in the universities, and in some private university, used for giving sales for the students on the course's price. But our governor are discussing to change a little this method, they want to put the test called "enem" with more questions and put it to be in place of "vestibular" for all federal universities around the country.

It can be a good change, 'cause many people that have made this test, says that it's hardless than vestibular, and it's tireless than too. It's better for we, students, to make a test that really avail us, instead of making such a stupid test like vestibular, that obligates you to learn many things about everything, and things that you'll never use in your life as is used on vestibular. I don't think that is bad to learn these things but isn't good for you to memorize everything just to pass in a test, you have to put these information in your life, using when you need.

Another thing is, if you pass down vestibular, you're not smarter than the other ones that haven't passed, you've just memorized more things and were less nervous than the other one, because, all things on vestibular is just about logical, linguistic and math intelligences...Nowadays we've listed by writters and searchers, seven kinds of intelligences, and you can't be called dum just if you don't be good in three...

People can say that vestibular is a good thing because it define who studied more on high school, and now it's more prepareted for doing this, but it's not true, if you pass on vestibular, you're just someone who memorized more things than the other ones, you're not better than they...

Would be better if the government thought more about this method of availing students, 'cause this method is just good for people that have studied on great schools, almost the rich population, and the poor, who doesn't have the chance to have a good education, would not have chance to challenge with who have had...

There is, editorial by Games' Place

We live in a city, that isn't the most beautiful or even the safest city, but it has much history, and it's good to everione that live there or even admire this city to know. Our city in the past, had the nickname of Manchester Fluminense, because our city has many industries in its territory, and when Sao Gonçalo had this nickname, nobody that were living here was unemployed. The city started as a hamlet, was settled in the place where nowadays we have Zé Garoto square, by a man that received the control of this place, and he wanted to built a church of the saint of his most devotion, São Gonçalo D'Amarante. This church was on place where nowadays we've the Matriz's church, on Zé Garoto neighborhood. In the escucheon of São Gonçalo above, we've some informations about the age when our city was recognized as a city, 1890, we've an image os the coffee tree and the sugar cane tree, things that were planted on Rio de Janeiro at this age, and in the middle the industries that since the beggining was the sign of our city, with a gear, representing the labour.But yesterday, at night I was surfing in the net, and I found many pics from our city, and I want to expose them to you, I think there are so interesting pictures of our city.

Le Parkour in the world.

Hail !

Here I am again.
Now, I'm going to write some critics about a sport called Le parkour (the track in french).
As you might know about it, you jump, and do some extraordinary things in this sport. And this sport is going all around the world. But, there's a problem... can someone imagine what happens if this sport get well-known ?
Here is a video showing some guys doing that.



I mean, can you imagine, somebody steals you, then you call the police to catch the thief, but when the policeman is almost getting him, he starts jumping through the wall then from a building to other... it would be the end for us.

Well, now we know that not all the sports are good for our health, and probably some of them must disappear. Say NO to le parkour !

*It was just a joke, sports are good to our health, you should practise one, le parkour is included.

Top 10 - Music

Hi, guys! I am from the music and tv group. I'm here to post a top 10 of my favorites songs in the moment. Hope you enjoy it!

4. Gives you Hell - The All American Rejects

7. My Heart - Paramore
8. Oh My God - Ida Maria
9. Fell in Love Without You - Motion City Soundtrack
10. I Can Feel a Hot One - Manchester Orchestra

Time to Have Fun

Salutations for everione, I'm Lucas Bittencourt from the Games' Place of this blog. I'm here now to give some shortcuts for you, to make your life easy.

If you want to play games on pc, sometimes you'll need some help, about some place of the game, and when it happen you can contact me 'cause I'll help you, but in some cases you just want some cheats for a game and I'll show you now some good sites that you can find cheats and little guides about your game.

GameSpot

Cheat Planet

Both sites are in english, so it's another place for you use your knowlegde.

If you don't want to use cheats, or even just don't play games on the pc, another activity that is very good to enjoy sometimes is to watch some animes, if you don't know what is anime, it's a kind of animation from japan, every cartoon made in Japan, is called in occidental countries by anime. So, if you want to watch some anime, there is a very good site that has many known animes and many so as not known as the others, but all them are with japanese sound and english subtitles, good to practise your english too, learn more vocabulary...

The Hylia

The Earth Hour

Today we brasilians from Rio de Janeiro and people from other countries turned off our room lights, in a simbolic act, which was called Eath Hour.
This is one more act of WWF.
But, what is one hour to everything people do to help destroying the planet? Is it really necessary? Does it really work? Maybe. Now, we're seeing famous people on TV, with a ball on their hands and a candle, saying "We are doing the best for our planet"... Are they? I still think it's one of these actions to show that big institutions and known people are doing all those fancy things to save the world. We have a lot of things to worry about.
I don't know if I was in this act. My lights are all turned down at 7pm then I turn on the TV, so they were off during the Hour. If you had turned off yours, all right, one hour less of a light on in your light bill. I'm kidding, at least it can make us think about our planet and what we can do to save it.
So we need to throw out our trash in a trash bin,to walk instead of driving, and stop to destroy our forest. And we can't do it with our lights turned off!!

Games from the 21st Century

The 21st century began in 2001, the year that represents much to the world... At first, it was the end of a confused age, an age started with the power of the coal and ended with the uranium. In the middle of this age, many things happened, wars, rock's revolution, michael jackson was born, iron lady destroyed USSR, but one thing was fundamental for everyone... a web that would connect everyone around the world in about 20 years... Called with the name of internet, nowadays it's just a thing that no one wanna be apart and everyone wants to be inside, and it's about internet that I want to talk.

In the beginning of the games, it was just to give the kids something funnier than the old peon, at this time every kid needed to have a console, and put that on tv to play a little game like tetris or pitfall, but was the world in that time... Nowadays it isn't the world anymore, in the end of 20th century a fever that I've explained above, the internet, introduced a new way to play games.

Internet games nowadays is the most liked kind of playing games... And, there is many types of internet games, MMORPG (massive multiplayer online role playing game), 1st person combats, strategy in real time and many others, but these are the most known...

In my opinion, it's a good way to have fun in the net nowadays, 'cause you have the chance of playing with everyone in the world, you can play with your friends without getting out of your comfortable chair, and in the same time you're enjoying a good game in the net. It's confirmed by specialistic, that who play games online acts more friendly with the neighbors.

But if you wanna play games online, below there is some games that I recommend, and if you want, I can talk more about them in other topics, just comment asking for the game that you're interested.

World of Warcraft

Warcraft Online

Gta San Andreas Online

Grand Chase

Counter Strike

Ragnarök

These are the most played games online nowadays, so, choose your genre and enjoy it all night long...

Hello Everybody

Hello Everybody!

I'm Ricardo Busquet, I'm from the Movie Groups, and like group's name says, I'm here to post about movies!
I won't post anything by now, but later we're gonna have lots of stuff about movies.



One more thing:
I've put a gadget for us to organize the posts. If you post something about your group, write a label in accordance with your group, e.g. "movies" for movie stuff. It turns easier to find the things we want ;D

That's all by now. See ya!

Introducing ourselves.

Hail !

Well, as the first post from a student, I'll introduce the blog.
We're students from an english course, called Cultura Inglesa, and we're on Express Master (as the link of the blog suggests).

1: What's the meaning of this blog ?

We're trying to improve our english, so our teacher gave us a suggestion to create a blog, and here it is.

2: What's the blog about ?

Many things were discussed in the class, and we didn't got any point in commmon, so we will write about many things, i.e. culture, games, sports, funny things, things happens inside Cultura Inglesa.

3: Why should I read this blog ?

Well, maybe if you want to improve your english, you may tell us about our mistakes commenting so we correct the texts with your help. And if you're north american, you may learn a bit more about our culture, I'm sure you'll like.

4: Who are the staff ?

We, students of Exp. Masters and our teacher too (I think). We have splited the class in some groups, each group will talk about a kind of thing, but they'll introduce themselves.

I take part of the Funny Things. So from my next post on, I'll make you guys who have nothing to do at home to laugh...

Hope you enjoy.

Renan Lima Soares,

profile

Hi folks!

finally our blog is open!!I can't believe it!!!

Well, now you need to customize it, i.e., make it the way you want it to be.

Step one: We need a photo for the profile. I believe we don't have a photo with everyone on it, as the group now is mixed, so someone can suggest another pic to be there so far. please, before uploading the picture in the profile, post it as a post for people to vote for it. Everything concerning layout should be voted.

Step two: We need a text for the profile. Again, I ask you to create one and post it as a post, so that we can vote for it as well.

IF you don't like the lay out, include a suggestion in you post.

Hope to see you aroung very often!!

a bunch of kisses!

p.s.: Don't forget to sign all your posts, as we'll be posting as the same person always.
