Little Cake
See below!
I will never forget the day we met at the airport . Eddie was the most
good-looking and handsome guy that I had ever seen. I totally understood
why my girlfriend liked him because I liked him too. He wasn't only good-looking,
he was broad-minded and sincere.Through their conversation I believed that they were really best friends.
My girlfriend told me that she didn't love Eddie, she loved me, Eddie was just her
penpal. I was just really being over-sensitive.

I love Tokyo....there are some great day trips from there too; Nikko, Kamakura and Odawara. Within Tokyo the Yanaka area with all the temples is great and there's an amazing house of a sculptor....Choso Asakura. Well worth a visit.

Whose money are we talking about? The protesters' money? Are they angry because they have lost money in the crash? Is that why they are protesting?

Another video. This time a man was attacked from behind by the police.

Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing in response to your advertisement in 'Time Out' magazine.
I
am interested in getting a job in London for the coming summer and I would
be grateful if you could send me the details of the jobs you are
offering.
I would like to know how much is the guaranteed minimum wage in London.
I would also like to know if there is any accommodation near Deptford. If so, please send me further information.
Finally, is it possible to pay the registration fee by credit credit?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully

Dear Pia,
It was
great to receive your letter.I'm sorry to hear that your mother is not
well, please take my regards to her. I was so pleased that you
appreciate my work. I'll keep on working hard in my job.
Thank you
for your invitation to come and stay, but actually, I've already made
plans for the summer.I'm going to learn diving in Thailand with my
husband.I'll stay there for two months. By the way,Giorgio phoned
me. Apparently,he has not recovered yet because he can't stop crying. I
feel sorry about that.
Apart from that, I'm excited that my daughter
Katherine will graduate this summer and she'll go traveling for a
year. Anyway,I will say congratulations again because you got a new job
and you can also earn some more money.How lucky you are!
Write soon.
Lot of love,
Ian
PS Guess what! I've passed my English Exam!

Here is a link to a video which shows the protests. Why do you think these people are protesting?
Travel in Asia
April 3, 2009 by rbarringtond
OK so what are your recommendations? Any places you particularly enjoyed? Or visit regularly?
Getting a Visa for Indonesia
April 3, 2009 by rbarringtond
Is there any information about this on the internet? Can you post that in this thread?
Organ Transplants
April 3, 2009 by rbarringtond
I don't know about you but I feel uncomfortable about someone walking around with my liver or kidneys or heart when I'm dead. I should feel positive about giving someone the chance to live longer but I still feel a bit strange about it. Do you think part of your identity will live on in your organs when you die? That seems a bit stupid right? Would you donate your organs for transplants or perhaps for scientific research?
