Good morning  4u.gif
And you can! There are so many TV programs in English. You can watch them smile.gif

Oh, I know. But you see, I have no problem with listening or reading. I understand almost everything perfectly. The problem is that I find it difficult to express myself. The words and all rules stuck in my head and I don't remember till someone else uses them. doh.gif But I have decided to open my grammar book and old dictionaries to remember words and to practise grammar smile.gif I hope I'll find time for that as I am up to ears in work... rolleyes.gif

Do you have a possibility to spend your summer vacation in UK or USA? It would be a really good practise 4u.gif
I was studying English at school and at the university for eight years but I never spoke so good as when I was working two summers in the United States and then in London.
But it was so long ago that I already forgot so much blush2.gif

FOR + a period of time:
e.g. I have been waiting for two hours.
SINCE + the start of a period:
e.g. I've been waiting since 3 o'clock.

Story:

A holiday where everything went wrong

I was in a wonderful garden with my friend Paulius. The sun was shining and the birds were chirping. We were laying on the grass by an orange tree and having lots of fun.
I saw a beautiful horse. It had long black hair and jolly legs.
I kept it and rode on it. I was teaching my horse new tricks and feeding it every day. We lived together for a long time. One day we went for a trip.
We jumped into the water. As a result I broke my leg. I shook and cried. My horse ran far away. It was terrible. I had no mobile phone and couldn't ring anyone for help. I saw no people and screamed very loudly, because was very scared.
After hour my parents found me and took me to hospital. I met my horse. It was terrible... I will never forget this adventure.

(After "because was very scared." i want say in lithuania: Po valandos tėvai rado ir nuvežė į ligoninę, I think: After hour me found my parents and took to hospital.)

When I was in Sweden, the situation was better, as I had to talk in English everyday. I hope I can find a job in UK this summer, which is not to be in the cards due to the crisis. smile.gif But will see how it goes smile.gif

* Not to be in the cards - mazai tiketina (ar galiu siame sakinyje naudoti toki issireiskima?) g.gif

Life Game, what do you want us to do with your story? How can we help you?
