The Spring

Yesterday afternoon we had a rain with hail. The storm was short and heavy, and only lasted for fifteen minutes. Later, we could enjoy of a nice and sunny afternoon. Today is Friday and we have a very nice sun but with a strong wind. The temperature is coolder than usual, but for me, this weather is fantastic. The Spring is here.

What made your cry ever?

To be honest, I cried many times in my life, Something makes me feel impressive is I used to cry alone and quiet in the bathroom because I am worse than other teammates in the grade of sports area as an athlete.

I feel that whatever how I am working hard, I am still the bad one on the team, especially I always get injured when my body is getting better obviously. That is like a rule that I can‘t break in my sports career.

I think you guys know how hard and bitter for being one of the bad grade guys.

Finally, I chose to study abroad and choose the other way to go on my life. I have to accept the fact I can‘t be one of the best sports player in the world. It is very sad and reality. But we have to go on after crying.

Go for it!

1 avril 2022 - I’imagination

Il y a un idiome chinois qui dit : « ne fait pas le rêve pendant la journée. », ce qui signifie : ne pas imaginer les choses inutiles ou impossibles. Oui, c’est important de ne pas penser trop du passé et du futur et se focaliser dans le présent mais en fait quand on imagine les événements qui pourraient passer à l’avenir, on pourrais se préparer mentalement. D’autre point de vue, on pourrais le voir comme de simulation. De plus, c’est bon pour des enfants d’avoir plus de l’imagination parce que ça entraîne l’hémisphère droit.
Cependant, je pense que si on passe trop de temps dans les choses imaginaires, on prendrais l’énergie pour le présent, et que si on mélange les réelles et les imaginaires, on prendrais la raison pour juger. Donc, c’est bien d’imaginer un peu mais pas trop.

What would you convince to take public transportation?

Before I start, please feel free to correct my sentences in terms of stylistic :) .

This entry will cover up my and mine friends experience’s about public transportation in Germany.

I am using public transport often, for example when I go to colleague or go shopping. I feel more comfortable when I don’t have to drive, because for me driving is an activity which needs a lot of attention, especially in the city.
This is the main reason why I am taking 40 minutes more time into account, compared to driving, when I go to school.

The time is a big disadvantage, even though it can be used in public transit for learning, surfing or in short, to relax. This was a factor for my former boss and my workmate to not take the bus. My boss would need 1h30 for a 20 min car ride. Another minus is the ticket cost, which decreased drastically after the subventions from the state. In addition, the fuel prices hindered people to take the car.

What is your opinion on this? And in terms of my English skills, please feel free to make suggestions aswell, maybe in terms of grammar.

My lockdown life on campus

It has been seventeen days since I was informed that my college was to carry out closed-off management.
I wonder if it's because I haven't been able to be outdoors for so long that I've grown so unsensitive to change in time that I can hardly distinguish yesterday from the day before yesterday.
It was just like a long dream. However, when I'm awake, I can barely remember what actually happened in the past two weeks.

New notebooks

I finally get a new notebook for writing journals in the morning.

Moreover, I bought two more notebooks that one is for my schedule and the other is for my idea.

Someone distinguishes them as a journal, a scheduler and a planner.

I haven't used a scheduler and a planner rightly, so now it is time to use them in earnest.

I hope I can enjoy good time with the notebooks.

ein Lied

Wer mag nicht Musik?
Ich könnte weniger Menschen, die hören keine Musik. Die Lieder erlauben über vielen Thema zu sprechen(zum Beispiel Die Liebe, die Natur oder die Gefühlten). Ich möchte heute über Gentleman reden. Er ist ein deutsch berühmte Sänger, der hat vielen Liedern schreiben.
Ich habe ihr mit Garten, das ein reggae Lied ist, entdeckt. Als die erste mal ich diese Musik gehört habe, verstand keine Wörter. Aber dieses Lied war so mitreißend,dass ich möchte schon es . Dann habe ich der text übergesetzt und das war die Entdeckung ! Ich liebe Natur : Radfahren fahren, spazieren gehen. Und indem, gefälle ich Frei, wie das Lied sagt. Ich will auch das Leben nur umarmen. Mein Leben, wie die Welt von Heute, ist zu schnell,und ich brauche Zeit. Für mich, das ist ein Zeichen um ein Leben mehr still in einem bessere Welt zu leben. Und manchmal, sollen wir die Leute reden lassen.

Journal

About earlier last month, the Covid situation in China started to get worse, especially in Changchun, Tianjin and Shanghai.

Later, Shanghai became the worst. I think that was because Shanghai has a large population.

At that time, we felt very lucky because we didn't have a single infected case.

At the end of last month, the first confirmed infection was reported in our city. The case is in Santa town, Yingzhou District.

Then Yingshang County reported that an infected case was found, and then a confirmed case was also found in Taihe county. These two counties both belong to Fuyang.

But these past two days, the infected cases have grown rapidly.

As of today, Yingshang County has 18 cases, Yingzhou District has 3 cases and Taihe county has 1 case. Among them, the majority of cases in Yingshang County are in Xieqiao coal mine. Fortunately, the majority of cases are asymptomatic cases.

It's worth mentioning that most of them returned from Shanghai, which shows how serious the epidemic situation in Shanghai is.

In addition, three residential communities in Yingzhou have been locked down. As for the other two counties, I don't know because I don't live there.

我会回家了!

明天我会回家。我在挪威住了已经三个多月了。我跟我挪威男朋友过得很愉快,可是我不太喜欢这儿的天气。因为他住的地方位于挪威的北部,所以天气比我自己住的地方糟糕得多。

现在的季节应该是春天,可是这儿还是冬天。每天下雪,有的时候会下暴风雪。虽然我男朋友对我真完美,可是我被这儿的天气感难过,所以想回我自己的国家。

我们安排他夏天去我国家再见我。我们也安排一起去很多饭馆和博物馆。我很期待跟他一起看看我自己的国家和暖和的天气。

A letter of application: Weekend bar work (C1 CAE)

A letter of application: Weekend bar work

You see this notice on a noticeboard:

Staff needed

We are looking for new part-time staff to work in our busy bar at weekends. The work involves serving customers and keeping the bar clean and tidy at all times. The timetable is from 8pm to 2am every Friday and Saturday night.

If you would like to apply, please write a letter to us and let us know if you have bar work experience, and explain why you are the best person for the job.

Write your letter of application


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(What could I do to make it sound more natural?)



To whom it may concern,
My name is Isaac and I am 30 years old, I recently came to this town to do a master's degree. I have been mixing work in catering and stydies since I was 18 years old, which was really easy to me due to the fact all my closest relatives have always working in the familiar business. For that reason, though I have not often had a job in a bar, it is a work environment where I am familiar with all kinds of issues that involve, from cooking to serving customers as a waiter, though I have been working mainly on the last one.

As regards the work schedule, it is perfect for me, because I am actually really busy with my Master Thesis and I need some extra cash for daily life expenses. It does not matter how overcrowded the bar is at these hours because I am used to serve people at weddings, communions and baptism. Besides, I used to have part-time jobs as a bartender while I was stuying my degree, so I really know how to deal with stress and overexcited customers late at night.

As for me, I consider myself a rigorous, patient and tidy person, which are general skills that come from my experience in this sort of business. Like everyone I have weakness, such as being very talkative, but these do not interfere in my professional life; in fact that could be an advantage in a bar, whenever it is understood where you are.

All in all, it will be difficult to find such an experienced and working person for this job. By the way, I attached my curriculum vitae for further details.

I am looking forward to hearing from you soon with a positive reply.

Isaac

Perché Portorico si diventò nel paradiso di moda tra i cripto-milionari e investitori tecnologici?

Negli ultimi anni un massiccio gruppo di cripto-milionari e altri investitori arrivano in Portorico. Non cercano soltanto il calore e la tranquillità dei Caraibi, anche le sue famose esenzioni fiscali.

In tutto l’arcipelago, acquistano nuovi residence, avviano aziende e si trasferiscono con le loro famiglie dagli Stati Uniti e altri paesi.

Allo stesso tempo, molti portoricani denunciano che gli investitori sono i responsabili della salita nel prezzo degli immobili in alcune città e paesi, questo ha portato che negli ultimi mesi si sono convocate manifestazioni contro lo spostamento della popolazione locale.

Le vent

Dans la fiction fantasy(fantastique) on entend beaucoup de fois des forces éléments. Typiquement ils s'agissent de l'air, du feu, de l'eau et du vent(de l'air). Je l'impression que la majorité des gens pensent que l'air est l'élément plus faible. Donc j'ai decidé à defendre cet élément. Il y a beaucoup de choses que on peut faire si on avait la possibilité de contrôler le vent. Au premier c'est une source d'énergie infinite. Avec un éolienne et en peu de vent ça marche. En plus en combat c'est une grande avantage. Si vous voulez savoir plus regarde la série
"Avatar le dernier maitre de l'air".

Traduction d'un livre

Great courtiers throughout history have mastered the science of manipulating people. They make the king feel more kingly; they make everyone else fear their power. They are magicians of appearance, knowing that
most things at court are judged by how they seem. Great courtiers are gracious and polite; their aggression is veiled and indirect. Masters of the
word, they never say more than necessary, getting the most out of a compliment or hidden insult. They are magnets of pleasure—people want to be
around them because they know how to please, yet they neither fawn nor
humiliate themselves. Great courtiers become the king’s favorites, enjoying
the benefits of that position. They often end up more powerful than the
ruler, for they are wizards in the accumulation of influence.
--
Traduction : Tout au long de l'histoire, les grands courtisans ont maîtrisé la science de manipulation des gens. Ils faisent le roi semble plus royal, ils faisent les autres avoir peur de leurs pouvoirs. Ils sont les magiciens de l'appearance, vu que au tribunal, tous sont jugé par leurs appearances. Les grands courtsians sont gracieux et poli, leurs agressions sont voilés et indirectes. Maîtres du mot, ils ne disent jamais plus que nécessaire, avoir le meilleur d'un compliment ou injure caché. Ils sont les aimants de plaisir--les gens voulais d'être avec eux car ils savent comment de les plaisir mais ils ne font l'éloge* ni se humilier. Les grands courtisans deviennent les favouris du roi, profitant les bénéfices de la position. Ils finissent souvent plus puissant que leur souverain, vu qu'ils sont les magiciens de l'accumulation d'influence.

¿Cómo usas las correcciones para estudiar?

Querido diario.

Encontré este sito de web seis meses antes y pienso que es una comunidad fantástica para aprender español. Una función muy útil es la habilidad para dar correcciones para cada post. Cuando estudio, uso las correcciones para repasa gramática y algunas frases o para aprender palabras nuevas con tarjetas. Es difícil para escribir en un idioma nueva y creo que es muy importante que escriba cada día para mejorar y sentía más confianza escribiendo. Es por eso razón que voy a escribir un montón este año. Déjame una nota abajo cómo usas las correcciones también.

我經常去一條位於海邊的人行道散步。當天氣好時,很多人會在那裏釣魚。一直以來,我對釣魚這個的興趣感到渺茫,因為它看起來非常無聊。雖然我喜歡自己一個人呆著,但我通常會用那些時間來看書或者聽音樂。對我來說,坐著等事發生感覺很痛苦。

どうして外国語を勉強していますか?

この間、私は先生からいい質問をされました。先生は「どうして日本語を勉強し始めましたか」と聞きました。簡単な質問だったにしても、実は私の日本語の勉強の元々の理由はなんとなく忘れていました。それは本当におかしいですよね?

もちろん、日本の文化にずっと興味があっても、元々の理由じゃないと思います。日本のゲームをしたり、アニメを見たり、漫画を読んだり、日本の音楽を聞いたりするのも好きです。その上、私にとって日本の歴史は魅力的です。あたりまえ、和食もめちゃおいしいと思います。しかし、その中でどっちが元々の理由かわかりません。

私は子供の時以来、言語が面白いと思っていました。そういえば、実はこの興味が元々の理由だと思います。確かに既述の理由は勉強し始めたあとで来たと思います。始めた時、日本語は最も難しそうだし、美しそうだし、英語と比べて最も違うし、なので選びました。始めて以来、学べば学ぶほど、日本語は人生にとって大切なことだという理由を見つけます。私は日本語からたくさん素晴らしい経験をしたので、もっと上手になるのを楽しみにしています。

Journal

My current office is in an office building on the fifteenth floor in the east part of the building.

It covers an area of about 230 square meters with six single rooms, one living room and a meeting room.

One of the single rooms in the northwest corner is a little bigger than the other five, which is shared by three people while the other five rooms are both shared by two people in each room.

Because the five rooms are all in the east part of the building, they are very bright, so every morning when we enter the offices we always have a mood like the sunshine.

My office is at the southeast end of our office. Compared with the other four offices in the north, I have an extra window in the south wall, so it is brighter than others.

I share this room with my leader because I am the vice leader.

Compared with my former department, the only thing that doesn't satisfy me well is that l can't occupy one single room.

I was the leader of my former department which covers an area of 13340 square meters. We had many offices there, so I could occupy one single room.

But in 2020, my former department was merged into my current department.

Occupying a single room is very beneficial for me because I am learning English and I can learn at anytime, but now I can’t.

Ce que je commanderais dans un restaurant inconnu.

Je suis une personne d'habitude donc si j'allais au restaurant inconnu, je commanderais quelque chose familier ou quelque chose assez basique comme les pâtes ou la pizza. Aussi, j'ai beaucoup d'allergies alors je ne peux pas être trop d'adventureuse. Mais définitivement je commanderais jus de pomme - j'ai un peu d'une obsession avec elle.

Langcorrectors, I'm back

Today I have been organizing my schedule for April. A thing I really want to do again is writing English entries in this page. It has been a long time since I wrote something here. But it is better late than never.

Improving my writing through extensive practice is my objective right now, along with writing my thesis. I am seriously thinking about writing it in English, that is something I would like better than presenting it in my native language. It can be a difficult task, but the findings I managed to obtain are worth of being read by others in a more "international" language.

Book - A Shot in the Dark - 61

Summary no. 61

After interviewing the bank manager, Constable Twitten asked for a place where he could ponder over the investigation without being interrupted. The manager offerred his own office and Twitten accepted. Twitten was resolved to get to the bottom of Crystal’s murder (case) for good, so nothing must get in his way now. Being always so thorough, Twitten assessed every detail, evidence and clue, trying to make sense of them. After three, intense hours, Twitten had finally worked out who the culprit was. Craving to make his astounding report to his senior officers, Twitten stood up and went over to the door. He tried the handle, but the door wouldn’t open. There was also a striking silence outside in the hall, yet Twitten only now noticed it. Just as he tried again, someone opened the door on the other side. Mrs Groynes, the police station cleaner, was standing in the doorway with a gun in her hand. Twitten was startled by her sudden appearance, but his fright soon subsided. After all, he had just worked out who Mrs Groynes really was, so he wasn’t bewildered at seeing her pointing a gun at him.

Eating a cup noodle instead of a waffle

I wanted to eat a waffle. I visited the waffle store that I had been paying attention. It was near library.
"Do you want waffles?" the owner said, when I entered.
'Of course, why do you think I'm here?' I thought.
"Yes" I said.
"We ran out of ingredients." he said lethargically.
"Oh... Okay..." I came out the store.
I wandered around. I had no idea what I wanted to eat then. The air was chill. The wind was blowing. I ended up entering the convenience store and found a cup noddle I had enjoyed.
"Can I eat the cup noddle inside?" I asked.
"No, sorry. I am worrying about the Covid." She said.
"Okay." I said, poured the steaming water into the cup noodle and waited 3 minutes and got out. There was two dirty outdoor tables so I started to eat standing. You know what? If it's windy when you eat a cup noodle outside, it tastes great. So I really enjoyed it. It warmed not only my stomach but also deep in my heart. Oh, I think I exaggerated too much. Actually it was not bad for a temporary.
