Which country in the world best fits your personality

Our world is big and beautiful, and there’s absolutely no reason why you should live and die in the same corner of it where you were born. Maybe there’s a place out there which is far more suitable for you than your current home?

Bright Side has found a way to help you find out with this great little test.

Pack your bags!

France

You are a romantic who enjoys strolling through cobblestone streets and markets. You are inspired by art and architecture, and thrive being surrounded by other artists and intellectuals. You enjoy the bustle of a city, but also love spending time in the warm countryside, sitting at a cafe, and having a glass of wine or coffee. Your soul is nourished by being in nature, and by having deep meaningful conversation about love, art, and the meaning of life.

• Inspiration.     Creativity.     Wonder.

Never waste your time and energy on those who don't care about you

Andrey Kurpatov, a psychotherapist, writer, and columnist for many publications, defined the golden rules of his life. Bright Side suggests taking a closer look at them so perhaps these rules will be suitable for you, too.

• Never shift the responsibility for what’s happening in your life on others’ shoulders.
  I understand that the temptation to blame somebody else is great, but have pity on yourself. You’ll find power at the moment you internally accept that you’re the author of all your failures and the creator of all your successes.
  

Curiosity killed the cat - wanna, gonna, ain't

Hello?
Hello?

Hey, how you're doin'?                                                            how are you?

I'm sorry you couldn't get through
'Cause this is a message that's been recorded                           because   
Especially for you

And if you leave a name and your number
We'll get right back to you                                                                                   
You can leave a message now if you want to
When the bleeps are through

I sure wish you'd hurry home
I think I'm lost and I wanna be found                                         want to
Feels like I'm wondering round nowhere land

All I'm after is to see your sunshine smile and laughter
I feel like calling you, feel like some contact
I feel like phonin', but I can't get through                                  

Hey, how you're doin'?
I'm sorry you couldn't get through                                            not available
'Cause this is a message that's been recorded
Especially for you

And if you leave a name and a number
We'll get back right to you
You can leave a message now if you want to
When the bleeps are through

(Isn't that as well so wrong, wrong, wrong)

I'm trapped in a timelock zone
Gonna have to face this on my own                                          I'm going to
Still gonna wonder round that nowhere land

Bónusz:

gotta = have got to = have to :)
I gotta go - I have got to go - I've got to go -  mennem kell

I gotta (got to) go my own way - A saját utamat kell járnom.
ain't -  tagadószó: do not, is not, are not

How To Be More Patient With Your Kids (OR anyone)

February 1, 2016 by Becky Mansfield

http://kidsactivitiesblog.com

You trip over a shoe in the middle of the hallway, you step on a matchbox car and you see yet another shirt lying on the floor in their room.  You try not to yell, because you are trying to be more patient with your kids.
Wait.

Didn’t you already ask them to clean their room… twice?   Yet it is still a mess?  It can be easy to lose your temper with your kids when things like this happen.  I get it.  After all… I’m a mom, too.

Yelling, arguing, angry looks … all things that happen when we lose our patience.   It isn’t the way that I want my children to remember me or the way that I want them to parent their own children one day.
Today we are talking about how to be more patient with our kids:

The Most Important Question of Your Life

http://markmanson.net/question

November 6, 20137 minute readby Mark Manson

Everybody wants what feels good. Everyone wants to live a carefree, happy and easy life, to fall in love and have amazing sex and relationships, to look perfect and make money and be popular and well-respected and admired and a total baller to the point that people part like the Red Sea when you walk into the room.

Everyone would like that — it’s easy to like that.

If I ask you, “What do you want out of life?” and you say something like, “I want to be happy and have a great family and a job I like,” it’s so ubiquitous that it doesn’t even mean anything.

A more interesting question, a question that perhaps you’ve never considered before, is what pain do you want in your life? What are you willing to struggle for? Because that seems to be a greater determinant of how our lives turn out.

Essay writing help - minden nyelvvizsgához 

Miért fontos tudni, milyen is egy esszé? Miért más ez és miért lehet könnyű mégis?

forrás:  http://www.bonusnyelviskola.hu/files/file/Eurovizsgatipp3essze.pdf

"Akár tetszik, akár nem, esszét írni a középiskolától kezdve mindenkinek kell, a felsőoktatásban pedig mindennapos feladat. A valóságban egy esszé megírása leggyakrabban egy önálló kutatási és tanulási feladat utolsó eleme. Az írásműben a szerzőnek egyrészt azt kell bebizonyítania, hogy a kijelölt témában milyen ügyesen vizsgálódott, másrészt tapasztalatait, érveit és következtetéseit egy logikusan felépített, egymáshoz szorosan kapcsolódó egységekből, bekezdésekből álló szövegben kell bemutatnia.

Természetesen egy nyelvvizsga helyzetben írandó esszé mögött nem áll kutakodás, de a gondolataid logikus rendezését és egymás mellé szerkesztését annál inkább elvárják az értékelők. Bár sokan félnek ezt a szövegtípust választani − amennyiben egy nyelvvizsga felajánlja a műfaj választásának lehetőségét  −,  több  érv  is  szól  mellette:  jól  megragadható  szerkesztési  szabályszerűségei  (ld. Részletezés) és nyelvezetének könnyen begyakorolható sajátosságai.
