Introducing new people here!

Hi there, it's Emilly. I'm 18 years old and I'm here to introduce my friends. Their names are: Isabela (19), likes going out with her friends and playing the piano.

I'm Emilly and I also like going out and meeting new people. Giovana (15) likes sleeping and studying. Matheus (16), likes going out to pagode parties and playing football. Barbara (15), likes going out and playing the guitar.

So, these are my friends.

See you, people.

Marriage

No .There isn't life after marriage,because Who is "IN" wants to be"OUT".Who is "OUT" wants to be "IN". A litlle boy asked to her mother :_ Mun why a bride wears white dress to get married?(mother) _ oh my son to show how happiness she is.(son)_ ah! Now I understand why dad wore black!

What's your opinion about marriage?

Hello people!

Here you are a snippet taken from The Addams Family 2 in which Wednesday expresses her feelings towards marriage. In the end, when she is asked what she would do if she had a man who was a slave to her, she said: "I'd pity him".




So, what do you think? In your opinion, is there life after marriage?

This week's dilemma...

Homework: This problem comes from a newspaper column where people write in with a problem, and other members of the public give their advice. Read the problem. What advice would you give? (Answer in the "comments" page.)


Do I have to act my age?

My name is Polly and I'm 47. I am single, and my children have left home. I am very successful in my career, and have a lot of friends, but I'm not satisfied. I long to change my life. I want to live abroad, paint, and write poetry, but my friends tell me I should stop being silly and act my age. What should I do?
