Chat rooms

Hi everybody, lately I've invited to some chat rooms, and some of them are not so good, especially because not everybody has the same English level and most of the time it's more like a waste of time. So I think it's much better if you get few friends with the same or better level of English and the same interests, chat and voice chat with them. And do it frequently.

Reading a book

Well, another way to improve your language skills is by reading a book or e-book. Firstly you have to choose a topic which you are interested in, for example you can choose Statistics. Second, get a book about it and some package software to edit it if you get a pdf document. Finally read all the book loudly, outline and point out the words and sentences you don't know and write down the meaning and the pronunciation of the things you don't know.
Remember to schedule a specific time to do it everyday. Be consistent.

Christmas

Christmas is coming soon. I know that many of yours don't celebrate it, but in my case I do it. I personally like it because I meet my relatives and friends who live so far from my place. We usually have dinner on December 24th and we say some words to thank for the food and the time.
Depending on the family size, people between 2 and more than 100 get together, chat, drink, and eat.
Many dishes are prepared for the dinner, you can get chicken, salmon, pork, stuffed turkey, shrimps, rice, spaguetti, pasta, many different kind of salads such as apple salad with cheese, cream and nuts, roman salad, etc, bread, beans, etc. The point is that you can share that beautiful moment and get along well with your buddies. At the end i think that everybody is your buddy no matter if they're your relatives or not.
You can also get some drinks such as wine, hard cider, wisky, scotch, brandy, rum, tequila, soda, juice, water.
Many families rent a band to have them play some music, or they rent a dj to dance all the night.
Children and youngsters buy and burn fireworks and from time to time some of them get an injury due to the bad manage of the explosive fireworks. But that's nothing that a surgeon can fix. lol
The next day like most of the people get a hangover or they don't sleep well a turkey soup with potatoes and chilli is prepared and I have to say that this is the best soup I've ever tried after Christmas dinner. The leftovers usually are enough to prepare some baggels or any other thing, and again people keep the conversation flowing.
Some people interchange gifts and others don't, that's not necessary.
In conclusion I think that this season is to be with the people we love and the rest of the things don't matter. So be happy and enjoy this time with your pals.

Merry Xmas
