Let us all think in English !!!!!

Hello everyone!
Well, I try to learn English by reading magazines of all types and watch movies and programs in general. I also like listening to music preference PopRock (U2, Led Zeppelin, etc).
My big difficulty is that when I speak English, I think first in Portuguese and then speak English. This makes my talk slower. I think increasing my vocabulary this problem diminishes. So I suggest that during the class activities to strengthen quite the vocabulary.
"UM BORA BAÊAAAAAAAAAAA!!"

I Need More Time ^^

Hello EveryBody!

I love the english idiom and like to study it very much, but actually i don't have much time to study because I have to work six hours by day and study in the University. sincerely, is many things to do =D.
I Like to listen musics in english, but the kind of music that I like (Metal) is so fast and I don't understand the lyric. Then, sometimes I listen some slow music singers, like Jason Mraz and Third Day (a very good Christhian Band).
While I'm wiriting this text I'm listening the song "Just The Way You Are" of Bruno Mars in Boyce Avenue's voice. The music and the lyrics are very good!

If you don't like the song's rithm, try the original version by Bruno Mars.
Other songs are Unconditional, of Oficina G3, Sound Of your Voice, of Third Day, and Heroes of Sand, of Angra.

Best Regards!

I need help to study English

Hello, class!
I don't like studying English. I often give up learning the language after one year of classes, so I will need an incentive to continue the course.
Since there don't usually like to study English every week. Another difficulty meeting to study the language is time. Course two universities and usually work on weekends, so I end up leaving English as the last task to be performed.
One way to learn English that attracts me is watching movies. I learn and get distracted at the same time.
I see you sixth!

Learning English at home

So, I study English every saturday, preferably in the morning or when I'm comfortable to do it. I prefer to do all the exercises continuously till I finish them. I usually do the exercises while I'm listening to some good post-rock bands, like Mogwai or Godspeed You! Black Emperor. For who doesn't know what post-rock is, it's a type of instrumental music, with some particularities, obviously. Great music to listen to while studying.

Music helps me to learn. The absence or almost absence of vocals lets me to learn better. I think it's the kind of thing that helps me to concentrate, so... =)

Oh, just for the record, I don't simply do the exercises, I study English. I think you know what it means.

Done! And I liked to do it.
