I really don’t use Internet websites to work, or study. Usually at work, the most used programs are Outlook or Excel. Maybe, if I were a journalist or Marketing executive, I needed to review sites about news or new trend is markets.
But in my daily life, I have some favorite (or most visited websites), which are:
Google (http://www.google.com) is the best resource of everything. When I need help to do a composition is there, when I want to study, is easy to find web sites with free material, and you can find real treasures if you are patient and try different words.
Tae Kim’s Guide to Japanese Grammar (http://www.guidetojapanese.org/learn/grammar) is a site to learn Japanese, but written by the experience of a student. It is not enough to learn everything, but it has good material and good explanations. You also can find a lot of material in Google.
When I need to relax, I visit Neopets (http://www.neopets.com) to play with my pets. I also spend time blogging at Livejournal (http://sansanita.livejournal.com), or reviewing crafty sites.
This is an answer to this post.
Our English professor told us to create a blog to write our assignments here, and not to print them. This is a very modern idea, I think, and I want to try it. And maybe, I can start finally blogging in English! Who Knows?
My learning experience at Norteamericano Institute
I just started this year, at the half of the language program for adults. During the first semester of the year, I attended two levels, one with Professor Catherine, and one with Professor Paula.
Catherine has an interesting style of teaching. We reviewed the entire book, but we played a lot, and sang Beatles songs. The class was small (just five students), and we always had time to review the workbook and doing additional material.
After that, the study began to be more difficult, and we started with Paula. She is very sweet, just as Catherine, but she is always late in the schedule. We learned with Maria Elena, that if you want to be on date, you need to be fast (extremely fast. If you were five minutes later with her, you missed half of the class, really). But Paula is more relaxed. I had some classmates from previous level, so it was very easy to fit with the new scheme. The bad aspect of this level? The number of students. We were around ten, and the level of each one was very irregular. But we did presentations and compositions, to improve our written and spoken skills. That was absolutely in line with my objectives, because I plan to take an International Exam.
The remaining two levels experiences on a new post soon. Have a nice day.

About colors
Since always, clothes have been a way to distinguish people. If they are men or women, married or single, young or old, these characteristics are expressed using fabrics and colors.
I prefer clothes in colors that look good with my skin color, and look good together. Of course, sometimes, I need to express my depression wearing black or gray! But it is not usual.
When I go shopping, I prefer easy to combine colors. This a little limiting policy, but it can be compensated choosing colorful accessories. I don’t express my personality on my clothes colors. I prefer to add details like makeup or special accessories to express my mood everyday.
