edge of tomorrow

Please don’t judge me, but recently I’ve become a huge fan of cheesy sci-fi films with Tom Cruise in them (and there are a lot of them!) and I have to see this! 😉

So, who wants to go to the cinema with me?

Let’s talk about SEX

Hello!

Today I’ve decided to post a video with Ronnie talking about sex. Ronnie is a little crazy (well, good crazy, IMHO) but if you don’t wanna learn bad words, turn it off, don’t watch it and don’t even read what’s below the video. I, however, think that bad words are an important part of language learning. Once I even had a book “English as a second f*cking language” by Sterling Johnson where the author tried to prove that you can’t say you know the language if you don’t know bad words. He definitely convinced me.

So now, enjoy the video. It’s quite educational, I guess, but some of the things are a bit disgusting. Then again, maybe it’s just me. Maybe I’m too decent or something. Anyway, I have to admit that I’ve learnt some new words myself 🙂

Tess Gerritsen

20140204_233948

Tess Gerritsen is a Chinese-American novelist, a retired physician and, without a shadow of a doubt, one of my favourite authors of all times. As you can see, I have quite a collection of her books, which are all medical thrillers. They are all tremendous and so gripping that I couldn’t put them down once I started reading them. Tess used to write romance novels but, fortunately for me (:)), she decided to change the genre.

Harlan Coben once wrote that Tess Gerritsen’s books are
“unputdownable” (great word, huh?) and I just couldn’t agree more. Tess has got my stamp of approval and I’d recommend her books to anybody who seeks great suspense thrillers.

 

 

The perks of being a wallflower

I have to admit that I really liked this book. Very simple but powerful at the same time. It got my stamp of approval 🙂

perk

1) something extra that someone receives in addition to regular pay for doing a job, usually plural

2) a good thing that you have or get because of your situation, usually plural

One of the perks of being a celebrity is that people often want to give you things.
