ESLTalk - WEEK27 - NA1 - Eating

 For this week, we go back to an easier topic to focus on speaking.

There are so many aspects to food that we can discuss, everything from world hunger, obesity to simpler topics, such as eating in and eating out.  

For me, I love to eat out, but it has to be for a special occasion or to try something new.  I love to cook and throw dinner parties at home.

All of the pictures below are from my own dinner parties, so if I´m going out to eat out, its mostly for the company, occassion, because I like to think I´m an awesome cook 
(not to toot my own horn, but TOOT TOOT).

Ha, the last picture is my dessert take on spaghetti and meatballs!

ESLTalk - NA2 - WEEK27 - Communication

Good afternoon everyone,

For this week, our dicussion is about communication.

Communication is a really interesting topic as it is always consistanly evolving.  The methods in which we communicate, but even with all the 100s ways too communicate, one thing isn't lost, the desire to communicate with others.

Since I travel a lot, I have to use more non-traditional methods of communication, especially when talking to my friends and family in Hawaii, California or anywhere in the world.

Going out...

While most people have the ability to sleep in after going out until 6am in the morning - I do not have this luxury.  I got home past 6 am and after eating and my pre-sleep routine, it was probably closer to 0630.

Of course, right now its about 10:54 and I've been awake for probably almost half an hour.

Funny thing, I'm not too tired, but I'm definitely not as alert as I normally am - #coffeetime!

ESLTalk - NA2 - WEEK26 - Tourism

This week we talked about the implications of tourism.  

Coming from a place where annual tourists outnumber the local population by 450 percent, it is nearly impossible to say that tourism has little to no impact on Hawaii.

Well, there are many published authors that research exactly this, from the environmental, cultural and economic impact of tourism... so I'll just leave that to the pros.
