A pizzeria review
Monday, July 15, 2013
Review
Pizza house
I visited a pizzeria yesterday. It's near my house and its name is "Pizza house". It has the best pizza I have ever eaten.
There's a friendly atmosphere as soon as you enter. There were musical instruments and that fact made the atmosphere more lively. The staff always have a smile on their face and are very warm and welcoming. They were absolutely dedicated to their work. The owners were very hospitable and that thing made me more enthousiastic. The service was very fast.
It's a clean and tidy place. It is beautifully decorated with nice drawings and vases with brilliant flowers. The decoration create a very attractive and modern place.
There's a wide variety of dishes on the menu. The food smelled great and it was very tasty. Many of the mouth watering dishes were suitable for vegetarians and the owners had made sure all the dishes were low-fat and nutritious. This is healthy food and extremely delicious. Also, the foods were beautifully presentend and they were really good volue for money.
I would thoroughly reccommend "Pizza house" to anyone who wants to eat something tasty. The food was wonderful and the prices were reasonable. It's a fantastic pizzeria!

Putting on a concert
Putting on a concert !
If you want to organise a creative event, you can put on a concert with your friends and enjoy it.
Firstly, you should decide on the people who will sing in the concert, such as famous singers, bands or if you prefer, teenagers of different schools who you can choose with a competition which you can create. Then you should select people who can play musical instruments well, so you will increase the quality of this concert. And, of course you should decide the kind of music which you think that will excite the audience. If I were you, I would decide pop music.
In addition, you should communicate with the people who will take part in the concert about the rehearsals and ask them to practise with you. You should also create the costumes which you are going to wear. Moreover, you must decide the time and the place. You had better choose the place or the time according to the season and events which exist around that time.
If you are sure that you have done everything, then you can invite your friends and your family to come and watch the concert. I'm sure you can do it!

These are the sites where you can make the short videos we were talking about. Take a look at one of them at home and explore all buttons and functions. However, if you finally make a video, remember to save it somehow. At the end of the making process, you are given the HTML code of the video you have just created. It will be a combination of letters and numbers which will not be understandable at all! This is what I would like you to copy and send to me by email or Facebook message. Good luck, guys! :-)

Predictions about future!
Subject : Predictions about future
What do you think the house of the future will be like ?
The house of the future will be really comfortable even if you are not rich.The electrical machines will work only with the sound of your voice.In addition,
What new jobs will have started doing by 2040?
By 2040, people will have reached other planets and they will work as astronauts.However, on Earth people's jobs may not have changed, but they may work with developed technology.
What job do you think you 'll be doing?
If you ask me, I think I will be working as a lawyer in an international company.I won't mind if I will be working as a teacher of English, because I like English too.
Give us your opinion on the future education.
Well, I don't think that the future education will change a lot. The only thing that I think will change, is the paper notebooks.I think that paper notebooks will have been replaced by e-books and e-notebooks.In addition, many countries in the world have already replaced paper books with e-books at schools, because they try to save the environment.
So what will we be watching and playing in 2040?More the same, only faster,bigger,better? Or will new forms of entertainment come along? Id television here forever? Will we still be going to the cinema in 2040?
In my opinion, in 2040 we will be watching the same programmes on TV. Also, I think people will watch movies and TV programmes on computer.We already do that, I think.As for sport, people will do the same sports , but better than now.Who knows, in 2040 new games will be played and sport will be a bigger part of our lives than now.As for the cinemas, I think people will still be going because cinemas attract people more than computers .
Thank you very much,
Fotis Markakis
