What if..?

Hello, guys! I would like to kick off a new season of our on-line talks) The first thought-provoking issue for you is...
If you made up your mind to write a book, what would it be like? What plot would you provide your readers with? 

good, isn't it?)

Presentations

Well, 2 days of your performance are gone) My congratulations! I want to thank all of you for real good job that was done! You have proven once again that I work with decent and responsible people and I can't help praising you, guys)

Hey, guys, are you there?

I want to suggest your using the whole functions of the Internet, that is why let's post all your written tasks in
our own Wiki!!! All your works will be checked up and even commented by me and other students! Do you like the idea?

vocab. translation

Why don't we leave comments on this topic? I believe it not to be so plain. For instance, I'd like our lists to become more elaborate (without battology and obvious sentences but with a lot of synonyms and specific prepositions in a string) If it's real,  translation will be needless. 

MAC vs PC

Very nice, isn't it? ;)

Check this out, guys!

Hey, I've found something interesting for you! When you have some spare time, try this...http://www.busuu.com/ - it's a great site where you can learn  English and other languages through doing some listening and comprehension exercises, reading and chatting with foreign people who are learners just like you! It's almost similar to ChatRoulette, but more polite and gentle)

And one more site like our VK - http://www.interpals.net to get acquainted with native speakers)

I wonder whether it is appealing to you)

I need your response!

Honey-bunnies, I would like you to rake through your minds and knowledge stockpiles and to say what piece of grammar you don't find sufficient for your level or just want to revise. I will take everything in consideration and re-plan our classes according to this. Thank you in advance!

Continuing the previous post...

..I want to query you about another controversial thing. Eating without a plate, just right from the pan! Heh, and without a spoon or fork, but only with a cooking shovel, of course. What's your opinion on that? Do you have such habit or you have a desire to judge such a man and say he's the most disgusting and ridiculous person ever?

A tricky controversial question...

I guess many men have asked themselves this question.

Ok, the situation itself. You had breakfast and didn't wash the dish as you had no time (it happens time to time). A couple of hours later you come back and want to have the same meal. Should you wash the dish before OR NOT?

Maybe Twitter???
