WHEN IN ROME...

Do you believe in true love? in magic? If Yes, you should watch the movie "When in Rome". A group of students from Inter 4 watched and loved it!!! They also wrote a story about it!

So, watch the video, read the story and enjoy it!!!!



"Beth is a woman who doesn't believe in true love. Her last relationships were disappointing and her work is above everything!
When she went to Rome to her sister's wedding, she met the best man she has ever seen, Nicholas. Beth felt in love with him, but after seeing him with another woman, she got drunk, went into the fountain of love and took some coins that people threw looking for love.
Then, she came back to New York. There were some guys fooling her and Nick kept calling Beth asking her out. Later, she learnt about the legend of the fountain: If you take a coin from the fountain the person who threw it will fall in love with you. Now she has to find a way to stop the chase and the most important thing is to try to give back the coin to Nicholas and wonder to have her own true love.
At the end she found out that Nick hadn't thrown the coin into the fountain and she also realized she was completely in love with him."

by Milena.

see ya!!!!

A mom is...

Mother is the woman that brought me to the world and took care of me when I was a child, giving me love and what to eat. It's the person that I meet when I need someone to talk to and when I need love.

Kinds of Parties

Do you enjoy throwing parties? Do you like going to parties?
I discussed this theme with my students from Inter 5. So, take a look at these pictures and some kinds of parties:
A birthday party is a celebration of the anniversary of the birth of the person who is being honored. Birthday parties are a feature of many cultures.

A baby shower is a way to celebrate the pending or recent birth of a child by presenting gifts to the parents at a party.

A bridal shower is a gift-giving party held for a bride-to-be in anticipation of her wedding. The custom originated in the 1890s and is today most common in the United States, Canada, and by American influence, in Australia.

A costume party is a type of party where guests dress up in a costume.

A tea party is a formal gathering for afternoon tea. These parties are traditionally attended only by women, but men may also be invited.

A bachelor party (a stag party, stag night, stag do, a bull's party, a buck's party or buck's night) is a party held for a bachelor shortly before he enters marriage, to make the most of his final opportunity to engage in activities a new partner might not approve of, or merely to spend time with his male friends.

A bachelorette party (hen party, hen do, or hen night) is a party held for a woman who is about to be married.

A welcome party is held for the purpose of welcoming a newcomer, such as a new club member, a new employee, or a family's new baby.

A housewarming party may be held when a family, couple, or person moves into a new house or apartment. It is an occasion for the hosts to show their new home to their friends.

A dinner party is a social gathering at which people eat dinner together, usually in the host’s home.


Enjoy yourselves!!!

See you, guys...
