Rocky is a must-see film. It´s one of the best movies we´ve seen. The lead actor is Sylvester Stallone. The cast also includes Burt Young, Talia Shire, Carl Weathers and Burgess Meredith

The film tells the story of Rocky ( set by Sylvester Stallone) , a boxer from Philadelphia ( Don´t know how to write it :P). Rocky has never gotten a real chance on sports, and worked as a henchman. Until the day that Apollo challenges him. Apollo Creed is the heavyweight world champion of boxing. He was trying to choose an amateurish boxer to fight him. After some time, he watches Rocky fights and challenges him. Upward on, Rocky starts to train with an ex-boxer, Mickey Goldmill. He also falls in love with his friend´s sister, Adrian. Rocky, while training, think he "will not do it" in the fight, but he keeps training hard, running on the city and punching meat in a frig, while Apollo trains with the ultimate technology. Well, the fight day comes up, and Rocky is gonna fight Apollo... Will he make it? It´s about you to see!

The film is very moving. When we see Rocky training, we want him to do it. Rocky teaches us to never give up, and always keep trying your best. Simply amazing film. See it!

Dear Tom,

How are you doing? Finally I've booked my ticket to New Zeleand.

Can't wait! I'm busy planning, but I have a few favors to ask you.

First: I was searching for a hotel to stay, but they're too expensive. Could I stay in your house? I promise I will help you with the monthly expenses.

I also want to know what are the principal places to visit and things to do. Do you have any good site I should look at?

Finally I wanna ask you how much money should I take and what clothes. I know it's summer, so I think I should take sunblock, sunglasses, etc.

I arrive there on July 5th. Let's meet at the airport.

Thank you very much.

Dear Tom, How are you doing? Finally I´ve booked my ticket to New Zealand. Can´t wait! I´m busy planning, but I have a few favours to ask you.

First: Would you mind if I stay in your house? It´s because i don´t want to be alone in a hotel in a foreign country, because I feel better staying with you, my friend. Would you mind? If I can´t, any good hotels?

Second: Do you matter about picking me up at the airport? I don´t have much money and I can get lost. If you can´t pick me up, OK, I´ll try to make it to your home.

And, the last one: What kind of clothes I have to bring? Is the weather hot? Please answer in time, because my backpack it´s almost done.

Hey Obama how are you?It´s Pedro, your security agent. I would like to tell you about the trip.

I´m very happy you´re coming here, to negociate the pre-salt and things, and I´m very anxious to meet yo again. Well, I can´t put you up in my house (You´re the president, someone could try to kill you so for my security I´ll not leave you here). You can stay in a hotel near my aunt´s house called Everest.It´s very good, or you can stay under a bridge too. The weather here is very hot, you should bring a sun block(You know man, a tropical country and summer, it´s like the hell). You should also bring summer clothes, probably a hat, a personal-defense weapon and mosquito repelent.Take vaccinations( Nobody wants you to die), so talk to your doctor.I want to show you very cool places in Porto Alegre, such as the Guaiba lake, the Laçador, Redenção park, Gasômetro , CETE, and many others. Here isn´t poluted and dirty like the USA, so you can relax walking and swimming. and drink Chimarrão( a typical drink from Rio Grande Do Sul).

Oh, almost forgotten, bring a Playstation 3 to me, please.It´s too expensive here. Bye!

Guns N' Roses

Hi,I am rodrigo and today I'd like to talk about my faivorite band Guns N' Roses.They're a popular American hard rock band. The band was formed in Los Angeles, California, USA. The five original members of the band were Axl Rose, Slash, Izzy Stradlin , Duff McKagan , and Steven Adler. The band's most known songs are Welcome to the Jungle, Paradise City, Sweet Child O'Mine, Patience, Live and Let Die, November Rain", Knockin' on Heaven's Door, Don't Cry, and Civil War. The music, they made, was different from the rock music that was popular in the 1980's. They played harder rock music. It was also closer to traditional rock. Because of this, many music fans became interested in Guns N'Roses. Guns N'Roses was created in Los Angeles in June, 1985. By singer W. Axl Rose, guitarists Tracii Guns and Izzy Stradlin, bassist Ole Beich and drummer Rob Gardner. Axl's old band was named Hollywood Rose, and Tracii's old band was named L.A. Guns. They joined the two names and got the name Guns N'Roses. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcPtzKkU828 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjCBmP7iATk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN3hH8LG4Yw
