Undeniably evil...

all i wanted to say is that the slogan "do yoga,live longer" (or something lika that) is a myth.
That's what I also implied, Alex.

we are all going to die of stress....yeah,that's right.and do you feel(the weight of the world singing sorrow...:dance: )that we have to keep all this bottled energy inside?in this rat-race life that most of us(if not everybody)lead,don't we have to find a way of relaxing?and after all,if we were all to die of obesity,does that mean that we would have to eat like pigs?i don't say that that's not the new fashion and a must,so everybody practises it,but a little time for ourselves is necessary,whether it's a new fashion or a tradiotional way of calming down
Maybe we ought to stabilize our lives first and then get involved in a cacophonous synthesis of discovering "ways to relax"...after all, humans, in this capitalist society, ought to and therefore must work for the good of mankind, however deteriorating that might be for it. But you are right ok, and we teenagers must keep a fine line between work (studying, more specifically), and enjoying our lives, with which we have no problem.
When we do grow up, that's another story. But yoga for me and all those alternative ways of healing thyself, in their majority being eastern, are simple, plain old ways of capitalizing and promoting one's ideological tray.

in your point of view there may be a grain of truth,but it really helps people to relax and let their hair down.yoga is a different way of relaxing and forgetting your problems.but it's a fact that many people may try it because celebrities do.i have never tried and i don't want to.
Same here. What's the big deal with it anyway? We're all going to die ultimately by stress, in this cruel world of hardcore scheduling and tasking. There is no reason to get involved in the mudslinging of relaxing and getaway methods.

Oh come on, everyone can be rendered bored with so formal english
Well, I would have to argue the exact opposite.
Let's burn this thread with formal English!
-----------------------------------------
You don' t expect me to include you in that "everyone"?
I believe that even if I am asked about my hobbies, I would mix formal language and everyday langauge... Don't judge my oral interaction by what you see here... Writing is a lot different to speaking...
True true, the enunciation of everyday English can be truly a daunting task by itself. Especially with an added weight, that of the examination, I mean.

Without kidding Alex, your english are too official and you are going to have troubles passing the oral exam
Nah, trust me, somebody who knows how to use official English never has a problem with ordinary conversations.
Ok, Alex, I'm George
By the way, you're a candidate for the Proficiency now, right?

You seem to be the illiterate one
Who on this bloody Earth would want to ingratiate themselves with you? Please, do not underestimate our intelligence...
The correct spelling is "proceed", not "procede".
We are just kidding, as Jimmy the Dimmy Pimmy Pinguini said...
I would be glad if you joined our conversations and, if you really want something more serious, then I can see to that... I enjoy serious talks too!
I think that you have made some notions about elefthe' s spelling errors... This is not an appropriate way, as she might not detect them. You should make yourself clearer.
Anyway, I think that I have complained a lot about you right now but you must know that I have more reasons to praise you!
You guys should stop using that English. It's too official!
Nah

Honestly, can you say "Writings"?:emm:
As far as writing is concerned, my composition teacher, who is English, says I am very skillful.
Do you prepare for Cambridge with a teacher or on your own?
Writings as in essays.
No, I just fill a past paper and hand it to my ex-teacher. That's it.

Oops, sorry, I meant "from"... Quick typing is making me very very damn fallible...
I explained some exercises to a cousin of mine once... I hadn' t got the Lower certificate yet, but I had all the answers correct. Of course, I cannot define this "explanation" as a teaching process, but anyway, I would like to teach English so that I can get some extra funding for my studies in the future... I am very good at explaining various things to others.
Officially, you can teach after managing the proficiency and after becoming 21 years of age. Then you go to your municipality and declare you status.
Anyway, I have both Lower certificates, I have the Michigan proficiency and I am giving Cambridge this year. So basically, I can help with something. Especially writings and speaking.

Hmm... Do you get a monetary reward for teaching? And how do you find potential students? Or do they find you?
Have you got Sufficiency to teach English form the Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs (by the way, I deplore the way these two are connected, but anyway)?
No, I never received a monetary reward for teaching. I found a student through a friend and the other one found me. For the latter, *whistling*...

Thank you. In fact, I am very keen on English.
I almost never watch movies on TV. I watch t.v. series but only with English subtitles - only to watch the video with them if I don' t understand what exactly has been spoken. And I read English books too. I have read the last book of the Harry Potter series -three times-, and some other books like The Righteous, The Innocent Man, Gorky Park in English. Instead of reading a book in Greek (I' ll read books anyway) I read it in English.
You teach candidates? And you are a B' Student of Secondary School? How can that be?
Nah, I'm telling the truth.
Anyway, I have read a bunch of books in English, too, some of which are Hannibal, Big Brother - 1984, Harry Potter, Brave New World, Rendezvous With Rama( I and III), Eragon. What I am trying to say is that people should read books. It's the best thing that can help you ameliorate your language skills.
I don't teach officially, just in private lessons... It's a good way to capitalize on my certificate in Proficiency...
Books in English are for the ones who don' t look up in the dictionary for every unkown word they meet. That' s what I did at first, and it spoiled all the pleasure of watching the plot being unveiled.
I think that one can spend as much time reading books as writing in forums. But both are helpful. Books help you with the reading part, though, and improve your vocabulary.
Yes, indeed. I also participate in a political game, online and free, which has a forum. If anybody's interested, just PM me.

The vanity of the vain...
You seem quite sufficient in English. That's a spiky quote I might add. I highly recommend you read books and avoid subtitles in movies. Usually, noticeable books are those that contain admirable meticulousness with regards to structure and vocabulary.
It may be a surprise to you, but that's the method I am using to teach lower and proficiency candidates in private lessons.

May I inquire for a clear definition of your command?

There are always some laudable songs. The problem is that they are not being recognised.
I second that.

Honestly, I believe that Malta's song was a lot better than "My Number One". Participants should not be judged by appearance, but you saw the outcome. This reflects the general state of our society.
In your defense, it is not coincidental that appearance and such plain characteristics play a major role in Eurovision. Ballades disappeared long ago from top scores. Nowadays, silly appearances and ridiculous beats shape the face of the contest, which has turned into an ugly representation of our cultural level...
