Tongue twisters
Submitted by anamag on Tue, 11/11/2008 - 16:15.Tongue twisters are a great, funny way to practise your pronounciation.
The aim is to say each twister as quickly as possible without making any mistakes. Start out slowly. Then try saying them faster and faster.
Have fun!

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers?
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?
She sells sea shells by the seashore.
The shells she sells are surely seashells.
So if she sells shells on the seashore,
I'm sure she sells seashore shells.

TEENS
Submitted by anamag on Tue, 28/10/2008 - 23:53. Some adults tend to forget they once were teens. They seem to believe that being a teenager is just "a big party", with no cares or responsibilities. It looks like they have erased from their minds how hard life sometimes can be when you are a teen. I mean, there are really serious issues teenagers face and have to consider...
On the other hand, there are people who think that teenage years are the most difficult ones in our lives. This might sometimes be true, but, at the same time, there are many positive outcomes of being a teenager.
In your opinion, what are the pros and the cons of being a teen?
I'm looking forward to reading your opinions.
poem
Submitted by anamag on Wed, 15/10/2008 - 05:46.Here you have the whole version of the "little poem" raquel-a wrote. I hope you'll enjoy it.
They say we`re young and we don`t know
Won`t find out till we grow
Well I don`t babay that`s true
Cause you got me and baby I got you
(chorus)
Babe, I got you babe, I got you, babe.
They say our love won`t pay the rent
Before it`s earn`d our money`s always spent
I guess that`s so, we don`t have a lot
But at least i`m sure of all the things we got
(chorus)
Babe, I got you babe, I got you, babe.
I got flowers in the spring
I got you, to wear my ring
And when i`m sad, you`re a clown
And when I get scared you`re always around
So let them say your hair`s too long
I don`t care, with you I can`t do wrong
And put your little hand in mine
There ain`t no hill or mountain we can`t climb
(chorus)
Babe, I got you babe, I got you, babe.
I got you to hold my hand
I got you to understand
I got you to walk with me
I got you to talk with me
poems
Submitted by anamag on Wed, 15/10/2008 - 05:34.I think writing poems is just great.
It isn't easy to write a poem.
However, if you aren't able to write one, please don't pretend you are, by copying other people's words and saying that "when you have nothing to do" you "start writing poems".
Why on earth are people supposed to lie just to try to make other people believe they are different and special?
Please, be yourselves!
