GHOUL for it

The BIG DAY is here, dudes!

The wait is over and we made it to Halloween 2009.

And it’s a Saturday no less!

Did a black cat crossed our path? Bad, black luck we should be having.

However you celebrate this supernatural day –in costume, watching scary movies, eating candy, scaring your fellow mates, partying until the sun comes up as if you were the last vampire on Earth- have fun, fun, fun!

remember to take zillions of pictures and come back to share your photos & stories with the rest of us.

Vampire kisses to all. See ya!

HAUNTINGLY HAPPY HALLOWEEN

What is it about this day that turns us all into lollypop-crazed ghosthunters?

Do you believe in ghosts?

There is a good question. And this, my friends, is the only time when that question can be officially asked without too much public embarrassment.

So let me ask you. What would you do if you had a ghost encounter? TELL ME. Moan to LCTIDIOMAS and share your wild ideas.

We can then compare. Create a MOSAIC of the global imagination. Yes, you guessed. I’m hooked on Flashforward. Who isn’t? Who wouldn’t? I know I can’t help it. All that mystery lying around just to be discovered mouthful by mouthful.

How will you be spending the next few days?

What are you doing on Halloween?

Drop an eerie comment and let us know.

WHAT ARE YOUR TOP SCARY MOVIES?

Whether you like’em gory or silly, chances are you have some favourite “scary film”. Just when you need a break from freaky reality, those films are the ones that will chill your blood or make you roar with laughter.

Don’t you believe it? YES! Fear can be fun!

Scary films lovers everywhere! JOIN IN THE FUN!

Here are some ideas to start the (red) juices flowing:

The Exorcist, Arachnophobia, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Saw 1 to 1000, Seven, Nightmare on Elm Street, Quarantine, REC, Mirrors…

Drop us a comment and let us know what the scariest film ever is according to YOUR opinion and wisdom.

MEAN HALLOWEEN

Welcome back, dudes! It was a long, steamy summer in Madrid, but it’s finally over. Now fall-of-the leaf is creeping up and, reluctantly, bringing down the mercurial radar in every household’s thermometer.

Aren’t your thoughts turning to all things SPOOKY by now?

Yeap, my very scary friends. The meaniest, scariest, most truculent season is upon us!

HALLOWEEN

I’ts been as quiet as a grave around here, hasn’t it? NEVER FEAR. The cemetery caretaker is here at all times, for good and for worse… he he he (spine-chilling laugh, you know, movie-kind-of-laugh).

I’m in the mood for a blood-curdling proposal. Now could be a spooktacular time to submit your clever Halloween ideas for inclusion on the website.

Inspire other Halloweenies and show off your terrifying skills by sending in your photos and recipes for disaster / stories / jokes…

LCTIDIOMAS is up to the challenge. We will be holding a big contest this year. So if you feel like making a small effort and have fun at the same time, come and join us. Participate in projects and contests. Log in our website to find out about the rules. Lots of prizes to be won!

How are you getting into the HALLOWEEN SPIRIT? Have you chosen your costumes yet?

it’s the end of the world… as we know it

It's almost summer,

a time when students are more likely to have vacation and the pool on their minds than school.

So we are about to say goodbye to an exciting academic year. Don’t you feel a wee bit sad? We are going to miss the everyday fuss here at LCT.

We’re hoping for a wonderful summer time for everybody. As a recommendation, try to use English in some way during these long, long holidays. You don’t want to forget all you have strived so much to learn, do you?

In case you miss us, why not drop a thought via email? That would be appreciated indeed, cause we’re gonna be stuck here for another whole month. But nothing is as idle as it seems. July is a month for English. With our summer courses, everyday is a chance to speak up and put into motion all the tricks learned this year.

Send us a picture of your summer holidays! Let us know where you are and if you can speak English there!

----- MONDAY, 22 JUNE ---- PICK UP YOUR REPORTS

SEE U REAL SOON!

A RAINBOW OVER MY HEAD

Last Sunday I peered out of my flat and this is what came into view.

Can you believe the sheer beauty of this rainbow?

It went all the way over the block. I had never imagined how wide a rainbow could be.And the intensity of the colours is just magical.

Have you got any cool photos to share? Come on, send them to the blog mistress and you will become famous. Or at least we’ll enjoy ourselves tremendously with these beauties in picure.
