There is problems, but there is plans!

We have seeing many Americans, which are really living right now into the bubble of economic crisis in the United States of America, as we know, don't believe that the President Barack Obama is doing the rights things to solve the problems of that country and its consequences.

But, even I being a Brazilian person and living out of that country, I'm always reading, seeing and listening to everything about what He's doing. I think He is going by the right way, I mean, I believe in His actions!

And don't talking about the present, but taking advantage and talking about the future, I think He is continue to work follow the principles of the 1º world countries: The education is the key!
This video below show us a President B. Obama's speech about "The New Steps to Prepare Children for College and Careers", in other words, about education, about the key.

Let's watch it...

Some phrases with new words. (ESL)

I feel that I need to increase my english vocabulary.
And it's right because I study this language and I want to have a fluent english.
Ok. But how to do it?

If you are an English Student as me, I must know that this part is one of de most difficult thing: Really learn, I mean, record in our mind some new words to thinking in use those naturaly.

Some teachers say, and I believe in them, that you need read a lot and write double that you actualy do!
When you do it, read, you know new words.
When you write, you record those new words.
It's like our brain works.

So, to practice this part of my studys, I'll write some new words that I always listen to in news a read in books and magazines and after this, I'll write some short phrases with these words.

If you want to do it too, feel free!
It's really really.
Ok, so, let's get started!

The words that I chose for now:

- Deep;
- Overwhelm;
- Overwhelming;
- Struggle;
- Threat;
- Harsh;

- I feel myself deeply happy because I'm really learning english! =D
That was great, wasn't it? rssrs

- Some people were literally overwhelmed by snow on the last sunday in a little town at Russia.
Very sad! It really can happen there. Wel...

- When the robber held my hand, I started to struggle thinking in hit at his face!
héhéhé... I'm a tough guy! rs.

- The threat is coming! Be careful!
The rumors about 2012 is truth? Holy shit! rs

- Ok, I'll try don't be so harsh with you, honey...
héhéhé... I'm talking to my wife. rsrs.

Well, for now, that's all!
I'll try to remember of these words and use it everyday.

God bless us! ;-)

President B. Obama has a real big problem to solve!

Yes, he has!
I'm don't only talking about economic or health care problems... There is many other problems like racism and old and non-evolved culture, if I can say like this.
I mean, many things really changed, to better, but some people don't!
Some people are still very archaic and, in my opinion, foolish.

Watch this video and I think that you will understand me.

Listening, Writing, Translating and Learning!

If you study english like me, by yourself, I think really important you do it:
Create the legend for some videos, some times!
Why? Because to do it, you are obliged to listen to and watch, obviously, the same thing once, twice, thrice or much more times, to know exactly what the people are talking, I mean, you have interpret what is present through this.

So, a good exercise, isn't it? :D
I think so!

Well, I chose a english lesson video, which I like so much.
I'm don't just talking about that one, but I like so much of this method present by Michael F. Marzio, administrator of RealEnglish's channel on YouTube, together with some his friends and teachers who he knows.

But, before I begin, let me do a little observation here: As I am a self-student of English, sure, I can make some mistakes here. If you see something wrong in my translate, please, let me know it, through the field comments. Thank you! =D

Ok... Let's get started! ;-)
