the credit crunch

Hello everyone!!

Everytime I read the news nowadays I seem to read of nothing but the financial crisis. It's a bit depressing really and I'd rather read about happier things :) Has the financial crisis affected you in any way? Or do you not notice any difference?

See you on Monday

Exams

Hello everyone!

This week's topic is a very timely one as, of course, next week we have an exam. Anyway, what are your feelings about exams? Do you think they are necessary part of life? Do you think we should get rid of them altogether? Do you get nervous? Are you too relaxed? Do you leave the studying until the last minute? Have you ever failed one?

Have a good week and don't study too hard! :)

You and your favourite brands

Hello everyone,

Hope you're getting back into the swing of things after the break :) . This week's topic is about brands. I didn't used to think of myself as a consumer but, I have to admit it, there are probably more brands around my home than I would like to admit. I have my lovely Mac laptop, my Nikon D50 camera, my Levi's jeans, Portuguese Basmati rice (sorry I can't remember the name!), Palhais cheese and so on and so on. All of these for a person who doesn't even enjoy shopping. Anyway, how about you, then?

See you next week
