How to get from our school to ...

Go out from the main door and move towards to the traffic lights. Cross the zebra and go to the tram stop. Go on the tram number 4 and drive 2 stops with it. Now you're in Vabaduse Väljak's junction. You need to cross the zebra and walk towards to Tallinna Inglise Kolledž. Now you go to the bus stop and wait for streetcar number 6. You drive about 8 or 9 stops with it and you go out on the stop called "zoo". Now your destination is very close, you just have to cross the road and now you see the zoo. You just have to go to the gates :)

New York Fashion Week

What:
Designers produce fashion shows to show off their latest collections. The most recent show was in September 2011 for Spring 2012. Currently, the shows are sponsored by Mercedes-Benz so they are referred to as Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. in the past, they've been referred to by other sponsors such as Olympus Fashion Week.
Where:
Lincoln Center. The shows were held at Bryant Park in tents until September 2010 when they moved to the Lincoln Center venue.
When:
Twice a year. The Fashion Week fall shows are held the preceding winter (February). The spring shows are held the preceding late summer (September).
Who:
Fashion shows are attended by journalists, editors, buyers, celebrities and social types. The Fashion Week shows are invitation-only and each fashion designer is responsible for the guest list. Journalists must seek accreditation prior to the event.
Why:
Fashion Week is an excellent opportunity for American (and a few international) designers -- ranging from Oscar de la Renta to Zac Posen -- to show off their upcoming collections. The fashion shows are often entertaining, accompanied by loud, mood-setting music and changing lighting. The press writes about and photographs the runway collections for newspapers, magazines, internet and television so the general public can see what is going on in fashion.
History:
Fashion Week is produced by 7th on Sixth, which was originally formed by the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 1993, then acquired by IMG -- a lifestyle and sports marketing and management firm - in 2001.

Task #8

I talked to my aunt trough skype. She is 30 years old and she lives in America. She has a husband in America and two adorable kids called Savina and Sofia. She is my dad's sister. I plan to visit her soon, because I want to go to America and also I get to babysit Savina and Sofia. I asked her questions about the differences in Estonia and America. She told me that she missed Estonia very much and she wanted to come back here one day to visit her family and friends. Gina told me that life in America is very hard, but you get more opportunities there than in Estonia. She told me that people there were very nice and friendly, but in Estonia everybody didn't just come by to you and say: "hi!" She thought that the difference between Estonia and America is very big, especially the communication level. She said that she will always love Estonia a little more than America. I think it's because in Estonia you will always feel a little more like at home, but in America everything is so complicated and new. And here's an old picture of me, my grandma and Gina.

Books.

What do I think about books?
I like books and I enjoy reading. The good thing about them is that I get a lot smarter and I learn new words. I like stories, what are kind of like based on my life. For example if there's a teenage girl, who talks about her life and what exiting and embarrissing has happened, I feel like I'm not the only one :) Just now I am reading a book "Girl, 15, Flirt For England" and it is very funny, so I always laugh when I think something is funny and I just can't stop reading.
I think, that everybody should read books, so I'm very thankful for my Estonian teacher, for giving us so good books to read. And reading is something good to do while you're riding with a bus, being bored in a plane or before going to sleep. I think so far I have read about 50 or more books, but my mom said, that when she was little she read every single book, what was in the school library.
What do I not like about books, is when someone writes a book about their life and they just talk how good their life is and it's like they're trying to make us feel bad, like Justin Bieber's book "Justin Bieber: First Step 2 Forever: My Story". I mean he's only 17 and he really has nothing to talk about. And I don't like it, when a book has no meaning. I think every good book should have a thought in it and we should learn from it.

My weekend.

This weekend I drove to Rakvere with my friend Arinda. Her mom picked us up and we drove to Rakvere about an hour. Her mom can't drive, so we were getting really, really sick in her car. But (thank god!) we made a stop at a restaurant and we ate sallad and drank hot chocolate. About five o'clock we made it to Aqva Spa, where me and Arinda went swimming, meanwhile her mom was working. We had a lot of fun. We went to the saunas, swam and we had a lot to talk about. We were there about 4 hours and then we met her mom again and went to a restaurant, what her mom had desinged. The food was really great and my stomache was full. So about ten P.M we started driving back to Tallinn. In the car we listened to Sky Plus Top 40. and we sang all the way to Tallinn. In the end of the day we were so sleepy and tired, so I went to Arinda's place and we went to sleep. In the morning we woke up about 11 A.M and we went to watch T.V and so we did nothing and just layed there on the coutch. Sometimes I used the Relax & Tone too :)
Now I am at home, eating, because Arinda doesn't have ANYTHING to eat! And I'm doing my homework, because there's a history test tommorrow, so bye!

Dear teacher,
Ma ei saa aru, miks te kirjutasite mulle märkuse Arindaga kaklemise eest ja Arindale mitte. See on väga ebaõiglane, sest ma ei saa ju üksi kakelda ja ma tahan teada, miks siis ainult mina sain selle märkuse.
