MuziK


Hey all!

This week i thought of posting something that has a big part of my life! which is _- Music -_

I have loved music since a really long time, well ( i'm 17 so, hehe). I started with listening to Arabic music cause im originally from Kuwait. After a while, when i entered my 10s hehe, English music began to attract my attention. Actually, i remembe that Backstreet Boys was the first band that i "loved". I began singin' songs that i didn't understand its lyrics cause simply i just liked the songs! Gradually afterwards, i began to get into different kinds of music, such as rock, rap, r&b, and etc. Without knowing it, i began to gain a big deal of my English language from actually music!


Another thing that made me get more attached to music, is the fact that music helped me express my happines and sadness and most of the emotions that i had! seriously, i used to listen to the songs that went with my mood and the way i felt. So, music has been a good friend for me since a long time! yep it was and still is.


Of course my iPod would blow my head if it had to use me to listen to music! haha, cause i really make it suffer with through the hours that i listen to it throuh!

This is past weekend I visited the rocky mountains. Visiting them was an experience that I'll forget in my life! We arrived on Friday night at a late time. However, as soon as we arrived there we went straightly to Lake Louise, where people usually skate at this time of the year because it's frozen!!! We played with the snow balls and had some hot chocolate that night.. then we went into along conversation till we fell asleep! hehe

The next day was great from the begining to the end, as we had a swim in the pool, the hot spa and the steaming room. Afterwards, we went to Lake Louise and skied there, where all the cute girls were hehe! well, gotta admit that I'm not the best skiier but I can manage my self :P

Later on, we headed to Banff, where we had lunch and went shopping as well. The day passed fastly till the time came and we went to the Hot Springs Hotel, where all of the celebraties were staying!! but guess what? we haven't seen one hair of any celebraty :(. Nevertheless, we had a dip in the hot springs which is an amazing experience, because ur staying in the hot water and in the same time ur head is in the cold weather! isn't that just cool!!?

First Blog: I have passion English (Do I?)

First of all, I'm just joking cause I love English. I think this blog idea is a great one. Blogs can be a good way to indicate what happens in everbody's life everyday and the experiences that he goes on everyday. This can be a brealient way to improve your English fluency, as you blog at least once a week. All your classmates and the people who are inerested in you can now see what's happening in your own life. I entered the LEAP progam on the begining of this January, and so for I believe that it's a very graceful experience, also an effecient program that I would recommend very strongly that can improve and cover all the English areas. Meeting new friends and different kinds of people is another thing you can benifit from this program as you'll crash into them everyday and participate among your classmates. I did the placement test and the results showed that I'm in Level 4a with the insructers: Scott Dougles, Dr. Sangupta, Pam Kapur. I find them very friendly&fun, and they do take their job very seriously, and they do whatever is good for the students' sake such as activities and several tests to improve our skills, but sometimes I can feel the tricks they do in class to see what's the student's level in English so..(I caught you Guys :D).
