The good thing is that i dont have many classes now so i have more time to study or make my homeworks. Im satisfied with my grades because i thing this semester I studied more but I hope to doit better the other semester. I cant wait for the holidays it is so near, I wan to go out and have fun with my friends and my boyfriend and want to go the movies, go to dance, and go to the beach i now that is going to be cold but i love the beach, also im going to see my friends i hope see all my friends for college beacuse im going to miss them! but also i want to study in my holydays beacuse im going to have more dificult grade the next semester.

the stars


Yesterday I read an a magazine´s articule about the stars, this is more or less what the article was about:
All the famous people use they names an success to make money, even they use their kids by selling the note of they birth.
They put some funny names to their kids like Gwyneth Paltrow s daughter apple.
The magazine is about de fashion and the new trends; famous people have a lot of influence in the people trend. The celebritys have they own fashion line and they market everything since pants to perfumes. Stars like snop dogg, andre 3000, celine dion, ande J.LO, make a millions dollar by selling they products. Other celebrities try to follow suit them by selling apparel, cosmetics, yoga clothes etc .
Other way that make money is when that have excess in one movie try to made a lot of movies in a short time but sometimes the people get boring with them.

a poem

Autobiographia LiterariaFrank O'Hara (1926-1966)

When I was a child I played by myself in acorner of the schoolyardall alone.I hated dolls and Ihated games, animals werenot friendly and birdsflew away.If anyone was lookingfor me I hid behind atree and cried out "I aman orphan."And here I am, thecenter of all beauty!writing these poems!Imagine!
Cried out- gritar
Anyone- cualquier persona
Orphan- Huerfano
Center of all beauty: centro de toda belleza

The author from this poem is Frank o´hara. In this veers he is talking about his childhood. He was lonely and he did not like to play. He said the animals were not friendy, I think he try to said that he dint love the things around him.
He was a lonely and not friendly child but writing he is the best. That’s why he sai he is the center of all beauty.

more about fashion. winter 2008



With fall and winter coming, perhaps your wardrobe needs a bit of updating? Well, here are a few fall and winter fashion trends that you may want to consider purchasing.

Sexy and classy are the features to look for when buying cloths for this fall and winter...
Its so nice to see the dress make such a huge comeback this year!For fall and winter the waist has returned! Whether on a belted swing coat, a curvy dress or pencil skirt, the emphasis is on the waist. The fitted shift style dress provides a much-needed antidote to all the trapeze shapes of this past summer. The seriously girlie frock could be on its way out? The dress for fall is sexier and edgier -- but not skin tight -- so dresses will remain comfortable.

*I understand from this reading that is about the fashion from this winter 2008 and the must have for this season, the curvy drees returned this year showing the waist, the summer´s shapes are changed , the dresses arent tigth to the skin and they are more comfortable.

Friends

Other funny thing was that Rachel had a crush with shes employee, but when she told hem, he saw that some guys was stealed his car! but at the end they kissed. Ross dindt finish his list but he finanally ate turkey, and Monica loved the puppy. It was funn!!!

the childrens

Nowadays many families don’t want to have children because the women prefer to work than to take care of them. I have seen older workaholic women with no child and they are married and their husbands are not happy with this situation and I really thing that to do this is not so good because children are the happiness of a marriage but sometimes it is sad to see lonely children because his or her parents are working all day, and that sometimes is a problem because the young people who has this kind of life many times have serious problems like drugs, alcohol, or other because they are felling lonely and they are looking for company in a bad way . I think the people has to think very well when they want to have kids and been prepared and have time for them. Also I thing that women need to look for time to get pregnant and they shouldn’t be workaholic and dedicate some time for her children, there is time for everything.

definiton of marketing

In popular usage, "marketing" is the promotion of products, especially advertising and branding. However, in professional usage the term has a wider meaning of the practice and science of trading. The American Marketing Association (AMA) states, "Marketing is an organizational function and a set of processes for creating, communicating and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organization and its stakeholders."
Marketing practice tends to be seen as a creative industry, which includes advertising, distribution and selling. It is also concerned with anticipating the customers' future needs and wants, which are often discovered through market research.

a great movie

Across the universe
I love this movie! It is about the teenagers live in the 60´s, the film title and
main characters are named after various songs by the beatles. Jude travels to America in the 1960s to find his estranged father. There he falls in love with Lucy. When her brother Max is recruited to fight in the Vietnam War, they become involved in peace activism but the sad part is that the love story of Lucy and Jude is intertwined with the anti-war movement and social protests of the 60s. Max Lucy’s brother is a rebel guy, Lucy is a teenagers how try to defend the movement and Jude try to not get evolve but he helps his girlfriend.
The movie also talks about other problem that happens to the young people, but finally the love made them overcome all the troubles. I love the movie because the history is great, I heard great songs, and the actors are amazing.
I recommended so much because is awesome!!

one more week.. and the 60´s



Hi… I’m here again. I really don’t now what to said because I don’t want to talk about my week , cause I done the same things like went to the university, study, homework’s, and all the this boring things. Well even this week have something interesting because we vote for the president of the school. But whatever, yesterday In the internet was looking for pictures, because I really love to do that and I found some interesting images, I love the 60´s and I was looking for pictures about that time, and I found that now the 60’s are getting back, the music and the fashion are like the 60´s, the other day I found great hippie´s clothes. Maybe some people don’t think that is something interesting but I really like because at that time the music had a transformation and also the fashion, and the people was more pacific and the young people was concern about the world peace, and now they don’t seem inserting in that, they only care about themselves, and this is not going to make the world a better please. Anyway that’s it for today… have a great week!

hello!

Hi! I dint presented myself! I am Geraldine i studying marketing in Facultad de Contaduria y Administracion from de UADY(Universidad Autonoma de Yucatan). I’m very happy with this but some subjects are very hard for me… But whatever I hope I can approve, I’ll do everything for it.
This blog is like a portfolio and here I’m going to practice my English. I hope I can’t get better. Also my friends will do. The last week we went to de SAC (self access center) and the teacher show us the way we are going to work there. It is great that we can have a please like this. I love English because I found it like a way to know about other cultures, and also I really like to listen the music and translate the lyrics. Read about news, movies, culture.
Well I hope you like this and enjoy.

Hermes: Ride 'Em Cowgirl

Paris - It's amusing that in a moment when American economic policies are being questioned in the midst of the current financial crisis that France's most illustrious luxury label, Hermes, should dedicate its entire collection to the United States' quirkiest contribution to modern entertainment, the cowboy movie.
Make that cowgirl, since Hermes designer Jean-Paul Gaultier sent out a posse led by veteran models Stephanie Seymour and Naomi Campbell, who sizzled like a Dodge City gambling hall gal in just knickers and an off the shoulder fringed cashmere shawl.
Gaultier's finest looks were faded crocodile rancher jackets worn with aplomb by Canadian cool model Coco, while a small band of models emoted in suede Comanche shirts and minis.
Slouch suede boots, fringed skirts, excellent Sixties graphic platforms, a Birkin bag, with fringe, of course, and some wonderful Ringo Kid silver bracelets all added to the cowgirl moment.
Adding to the Wild West mood, the catwalk was desert sand with huge cacti, and the soundtrack featured spaghetti western meets the theme music to Orson Welles "Touch of Evil."
Gaultier took his bow, cigar in hand, Stetson on his head, running down the catwalk before tossing the hat into the audience to the massed cheers of Yeehigh!


Midst- medio
Luxury-de lujo
Led- conducido
Sizzled- chisporroteado

Fringed- con flecos

Across the universe- the Beatles

Words are flying out like endless rain into a paper cup They slither while they pass They slip away across the universe Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my open mind Possessing and caressing me Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes That call me on and on across the universe Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing through my open ears exciting and inviting me Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns It calls me on and on across the universe
