Live&Direct from Portugal: Like everything that is new, it can be amazing or scary.

Pardon my English!

**********************************************************************
Well, as they say, the world is a global village therefore, being English the commercial language used worldwide, it's easier to make "business" in Shakespeare's language than in Camões's one! ;)
My business is to improve my English so that I can make some use of what I have learned. I have studied the language for many years and I think my reading and listening comprehension skills are at a good level , but I have not that much speaking or writing practise.
So, here I am with the purpouse of improving my English skills because I'm fed up to listen to my 8 years old cousin saying that I'd be better of speaking portuguese... Ok, she's in fact british but I want to be able to order my Macmenu on my own! :)

Like everything that is new, it can be amazing or scary.

I came across this video in C*'s blog... and it is amazing/scary to learn how fast the world is changing. And to me the most amazing/scary is that children know how to use Internet and computers, and many of the parents don't even know how to press the "on" boton. I'm not talking about child predators azards, I'm talking about information and parents not doing an effort to keep up with actual times. If people used to talk about generation gap... they haven't seen nothing yet.
