Japanese elementary schools usually have an event called “staying-over learning” for 5th graders.
It is an overnight trip led by school. The destination is some public facilities in countryside, and there kids enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking and camp fire.
My 10-year old son is out for that, so I and my husband are staying home as usual but…
it is unusually quiet a night.

Na praia da Nazaré ontem:
Ontem a minha família decidiu ir à praia por volta das duas horas da tarde. O tempo estava perfeito, e nós estávamos entusiasmados. Eu ouvi dizer que o mar de Portugal é geralmente muito frio, mas quando eu mergulhei pela primeira vez, pensei que o mar de Portugal é bastante agradável.
Então eu estava animada para nadar ontem. Mas quando chegamos à praia da Nazaré, as ondas eram excepcionalmente grandes e fortes! No dia anterior, porque as ondas eram calmas e suaves, eu fiquei surpreendida! Então não podíamos nadar, é por isso nós só sentamos na sombra do guarda-sol e olhamos as ondas durante circa de duas horas. Nós ouvimos música e comemos as pipocas também.
Quando nós decidimos regressar a casa por volta das quatro horas, atrás de saímos da praia, nós vimos duas pessoas que decidiram nadar nas ondas perigosas! Os nadadores-salvadores precisavam de ir de barco para ajudar as pessoas. Foi muito assustadora de ver, mas eu estou feliz por eles estavam seguros!
- thank you for reading. I have been studying Portuguese for about 2 months and am trying to write more for practice.

Ich habe ein Geschwister, einen Bruder. Er ist ziemlich älter als ich. Wir haben einen Unterschied von acht Jahren. Daher haben wir miteinander nicht lange verbracht. Wir sprechen leider nicht zu viel, aber zu wenig. Wir texten miteinander nur, wenn wir Geburtstag haben. Als ich jung war, haben wir viel miteinander gespielt. Ich denke dass, mein Bruder sehr klug und intelligent ist. Er hat viel an einem jungen Alter erreicht. Ich bin stolz auf ihn, aber ich kann nicht das sagen. Ich finde es schwierig.

— Awful. Honor
The competition was never just a competition. No words can describe when you heard your name as one of the earliest, the Honor that was not technically for me—it should not be.
Honor. A noun, a simple word for some, but it was not like that at all, it was a distinction from everyone else. Something that makes you unique from others. The feeling of not achieving the honor I deserve one word can only describe—Awful…
I was part of our school publication, and luckily got the position as Senior Feature Writer and eventually compete for the same category. The time was precious at that moment, when you cannot think of any words make it redundant—but with more sense. The time was precious as well because every minute you cannot think of something to write you are already wasting it.
Now move forward for the awardee out of all writers there—something I cannot count. I been part of the 10th placers and we, I was just waiting for the right moment for my name to be called onto the stage. Take note I don’t want my name to be called—not because I don’t want but instead I know I placed lower than I expected.

Il lavoro è diventato troppo stressante. Sono grata di averne uno, però magari i colleghi fossero più logici!
Dopo aver pranzato, posso sopportare meglio gli impegni. Non vedevo l'ora che arrivasse la pausa pranzo.
Forse è ora di rallentare il ritmo e finalmente pensare di più a me stessa. Non è normale sentirmi come se svolgessi anche le mansioni degli altri.
A parte questo, forse devo essere un po' più egoista e cercare di migliorarmi, invece di prestare attenzione agli altri.

Ein guter Freund oder eine gute Freundin ist jemand, dem sich über man kümmert. Sie hören deine Gefühle und geben vielleicht Ratschläge. Man kann auch, dem spät an der Nacht telefonieren. Sie wurden wahrscheinlich den Anruf annehmen. Ihr könnt mit dem deine Sorgen teilen. Ich denke jetzt, dass es schwierig eine gute Freundin zu suchen ist.

I've been speaking English for years now but it doesn't mean my English is perfect.
Actually I reached a point where I'll just talk the way I think it sounds good, but unfortunately it doesn't mean it's natural for native speakers' ears. So I want to fix that.
A little bit about myself: I'm a translator (not to English, but from English) and I learned most of my vocab from reading books and watching YouTube.
I watched A LOT of cringe stuff back in the day. And people say my accent is a mix of different countries which I agree since I also watch a lot of foreigners talk and got their speech pattern overtime.

Qui il tempo è bello. Il sole splende, il cielo è azzurro con alcune nuvole, e la temperatura è piacente. Abbiamo un proverbio che si può tradurre letteralmente como "in aprile, non scopriti di un filo (= non togliti un adumento), ma in maio, fai ciò che vuoi". Significa che in aprile, il tempo è ancora incerto, con cali di temperatura e acquazzioni frequenti, e le belle giornate iniziano realmente in maio. Non è sempre vero, perché a volte abbiamo bellissimi aprili, ma questo anno, sembra che il proverbio sia giusto.

When i get home , I change into comfortable pijamas , I make wuduu to pray el asr , empty my bag and organise my desk .
After that , I go to the kitchen to eat something , and then relax in my bad and watch an episode of my current serie , if I did a workout earlier that day , I will then put a hair oil and take a relaxing bath , around 8pm I'm gonna review what we had earlier in school , have dinner , pray el ichaa . and I always try to make a tomorrow to do list to keep track of my goals , if i felt well and a little energized , I make a cup of hot vervain tea and read few pages of my book , around 11pm I do my skincare (very simple , a cleanser and a moisterizer ) and brush my teeth to jump into my bed ( my fav part ).
Well i guess that's my perfect evening routine , of course sometimes I don't do it all , it depends much about my energy levels and my mood (well to be transparent , if I felt shitty i'm going to binge watch or sleep veryy early ) , but I have the must do, like my prayers , one hour study session and reviewing my day and my weekly plan , that's all , simple right? what do you think?

I had a job interview today and got back to my place earlier than normal
took only a few minutes rest, went to couple of bicycle shops to fix my own one.
rest of them said they couldn't help me cause they don't have spokes fits to my bicycle
but the last shop owner found another way to solve this problem which is just changing the whole wheel
I was pretty tired of visiting shops in a row and like okay please change the wheel
this is the story about how I spent money today thank you

Como é sua relação com sua família? Amo minha família exceto meus pais 😂 Não conheço bem meu pai, mas minha mãe é meio desequilibrada mentalmente, e ela torna nossa vida um inferno 😢 Planejo trabalhar no exterior então para poder me afastar de casa. Fico feliz por gostar do resto da minha família, porque assim não é completamente insuportável kkkk

Cuando pienso en mi vida, y cuanto uso la technologia, llego a la conclusión de que estoy dependiente en ello. La verdad es que desde despertarme hasta irme a la cama siempre lo estoy usando. Por ejemplo, por la mañana suelo aprobar mis correos electrónicos, leo las noticias en una aplicación en mi teléfono móvil. Uso las macinas de café para preparar la bebida, uso mi móvil para jugar musicar en la coche cuando conduzco al trabajo. Luego durante todo el día uso un ordenador para hacer mi trabajo por ejemplo hacer llamadas de vídeo, para enviar correos electrónicos, para analizar números. Cuando vuelva a casa veo la tele, o pongo un vídeo en YouTube, envío mensajes an amigos en las redes sociales o en otras aplicaciones. Busco recetas en internet cuando es la hora de preparar la cena, uso AI para buscar información etc. no se como he llegado a ser así porque durante el primer 17 años de mi vida no tenía internet en casa ni un teléfono móvil. Quizás con el desarrollos de la tecnología y como que ahora es tan accesible a todos, fue inevitable que llegara dependeré te en usarlo. Aunque me hace la vida más fácil también discutiría que también me ha hecho más aislada porque paso mucho del tiempo detrás de una pantalla. Tengo que hacer un esfuerza para que no sea tan obsesionada en usar la technologia.
