Here is a humorous example of my own life:

I wake up at about seven oclock every weekday. Then I stop the horribly loud alarm clock , and go on sleeping for ten minutes until the alarm clock explodes again. The explosion makes me get up quickly , and after that, I go to the bathroom to have a shower. Ah, the hot shower! Then I have a quick breakfast and leave for school. I take a crowded bus, then I walk for ten minutes, and I finally arrive at my dear school, where my students are waiting for me with their open arms Hey, I forgot to get dressed after the shower!!

- De qué irá esto??? me he preguntado, y sin querer dar malas ideas a estudiante alguno he marcado y pegado tu texto en Globalink pidiéndole una traducción. El buen "señor" me dice esto:

Yo me despierto a aproximadamente siete hora cada día de la semana. Entonces yo detengo el despertador muy fuerte, y sigue durmiendo durante diez minutos hasta el despertador explota de nuevo. La explosión me hace levantarse rápidamente, y después de eso, yo voy al baño para ducharse. ¡Ah, la ducha caliente! Entonces yo tomo un desayuno rápido y dejo para la escuela. ¡Yo tomo un autobús atestado, entonces yo camino durante diez minutos, y yo llego finalmente a mi estimada escuela dónde mis estudiantes están esperando por mí con sus brazos abiertos… Eh, yo me olvidé de vestirme después de la ducha!!

A lo cual te respondo : Pues mira, enhorabuena por tan buen recibimiento estando tan ligero de ropa. Lo de las siete de la mañana, el autobús y el desayuno rápido es lo que me parece mas duro del tema, pero... Mi horario de trabajo es totalmente opuesto; trabajo de dos a ocho de la tarde, no madrugo, me acuesto tarde y como en casa antes de salir. La no concordancia de horarios laborales comunes en mi medio laboral, el medio escolar, no ha sido elegida por mí, pero le he cogido el "tranquillo" (esto si que no lo traduce Globalink)... y me gusta.

Como estamos, perdón estáis, en clase de inglés, y yo no tengo ni idea, recurro de nuevo a mi amigo Globalink y le pido la traducción... que me la imagino, pero no tengo otra cosa.

Because he/she looks, congratulation for so good greeting being so slight of clothes. That of seven in the morning, the bus and the quick breakfast is what I find but I last of the topic, but... My schedule of work is completely opposed; I work from two to eight of the afternoon, I don't get up early, I go to bed late and I eat at home before leaving. The not agreement of common labor schedules in my half labor one, the school means, it has not been chosen by me, but I have caught him the " tranquillo " (this if that Globalink doesn't translate it)... and I like it.

Saludos, bonita actividad.... aunque Globalink haga barbaridades.

o sea:

Greetings, beautiful activity.... although Globalink makes atrocities.

(Perdón, si no procede en clase tienes el fin de semana para borrarlo)

This is Javier Escajedo's everyday life.

Javier doesn't often get up early because he starts work after lunch, at two o'clock in the afternoon. He is a teacher and his students are young boys and girls. He likes teaching them how to use computers and they learn a lot. Javier has got a web page for children and his students usually take part in the activities he prepares. They sometimes write comments and make podcasts on this blog. After six hours of hard work, Javier usually goes back home, has dinner, and works with his computer until he goes to sleep on his chair, like a child.

Javier no suele levantarse temprano, porque empieza a trabajar después de la comida, a las dos de la tarde. Es profesor y sus estudiantes son niños y niñas. A Javier le gusta enseñarles a utilizar los ordenadores y ellos aprenden mucho. Javier tiene una página web para niños y sus estudiantes suelen participar en las actividades que prepara. A veces escriben comentarios y ponen grabaciones en esta bitácora. Tras seis horas de esforzado trabajo, Javier normalmente vuelve a casa, cena, y trabaja con su ordenador hasta que se queda dormido en la silla, como un niño.

Hi! How are you? We're fine. Usually, at the weekends we go out with our friends and we go to parties and have great fun with them. We return home more or less at 12 p.m and after that we open the msn! When we are out we eat and drink in the burger king some times. Exceptionally, we go to some discos or pubs, or even to some concerts! Our week ends are really fantastic!!
Each day, we wake up at 7 o'clock and go to high school until 2 or 3 p.m. In the afternoons we try to study and on tuesday and thursday we go to the E.O.I to study english.And that's all. We hope we haven't bored you too much!! Kisses!!

- I have read your comments with a computer translator. I don't know English but somehow I look for myself the life with the technological tools. As this it is English's accent class the comment in English comanche", that is to say, that of my translator. Your comments about your weekends or other days remind me my old times of student. We made very similar things; our sandwiches, the cinema and the disco. Our class works, the institute mornings and some sports or games, as the letters or the chess that I also practiced a time. You live now those things in the way but natural. I do now everything it with a lot of affection and some nostalgia. Greetings for all and all.

My life is a monotony between the school, the homework, the friends...

I am in the habit of getting up at seven o'clock. Later, I go to the bath to have a shower and then I return to my room to dress. Then, having breakfast, combing my hair... occupy all my morning. When I come to school I am in the habit of speaking with my friends before beginning the endless classes. When the bell rings, it indicates the end of the classes, I return home by car. After eating, I connect to the Internet and then I do my homework. When I finish, I read or watch TV. Finally, I have dinner, have a shower and go to bed.

 Your composition is OK, Sonia, but there were some mistakes which I corrected. Well done.

I was born in Madrid in a cold winter. I'm 15 years old and I have lived all my life in Villalba. When I was a child I went to the school opposite my house and now I go to the high-school near my house. I live with my parents Raquel and Juan Luis and my brother Luismi. My grandparents live in Galicia and I usually go all summers to visit them. I like going out with my friends and playing basketball. Also, I like watching TV. I hate people who speak badly of other people. When I am older, I want to be a mechanic in my father's garage.

Your composition is very good, Víctor. There were only a couple of mistakes. Very well done.

Hi! We live in Madrid (Spain). We're 15 years old.

Paula lived in Argentina because she was born there. When she was seven years old, she travelled to Spain.

María was born in "Fundación Jimenez Díaz" in Madrid. Now she lives in Villalba, a town near Madrid and the montains.

We go to Maria Guerrero high school all days (Monday to Friday). We get up at half past seven. We do our homework all evenings. Paula is repeating the 3º curse, but María isn't, because she is very inteligent.

We have a exchange with Luca Pacioli high school in Crema (Italia). Paula travelled there last year, and María will travel this year.

We don't have more ideas. Thanks!

Bye!

It's a very good composition, Paula and María. I hope you will have a great time in Italy. English will be very useful for you there.
