Hi everyone and Lucy in particular!.
I feel extremely happy today since I´ver just read your comment. It brightened up my day!
When you teach a subject at school you always dream of making your students an active part in it. What I mean is that you crave for communicating, for making language an important thing in their lives!.
You just wrote a comment that I did not expect, in fact, since I´m no longer your teacher.
However, I can tell you that both you and your classmates play an oustanding role in my memories as a teacher since you were one of the groups I taught in my first year at school.
I remember the Easter cards you made...do you know that I found yours last year? I still keep some of them.
By the way (I love boasting around about this...) I was lucky enough to sleep at Portora Royal, Oscar Wilde´s school in Enniskillen (Northern Ireland). It was great. You enter that school and there is a huge hall, with his portrait on the wall! I remember I was quite shocked since it was the same portrait I saw in one of the compulsory novels I had to read at the uni!!!.
I also like "The Picture of Dorian Gray" and I remember the film in the 1940s. I bought it a couple of years ago with a special edition of the novel.
Thanks so much for taking part in this!!!!.
See you around.

First of all, I'm so glad you felt happy about my comment, and I intend to be an active part in here ;) It's sad you don't teach my class anymore, for I liked your lessons very much - you made us participate in your conversations and I specially loved the listening parts... Those Easter cards will sure be an excellent way to bring back old memories.
If I were to visit that place you talk about in Northern Island I'm sure I'd go crazy! Taking photos and filming and all....
I haven't watched the the *was it 1945?* film, but I went to the cinema past June and watched the newest version. With Colin Firth playing Lord henry and Ben Barnes looking that handsome, what more could I ask for? I had a wonderful time, although I didn't like some of the plot changes they made. I got over them, of course :) I'm longing to read The Canterville Ghost, and I soon will!
Thanks for dedicating your entry to me. See you soon somewhere at school!

Hi L!!!
I´m so glad to get your comments!
As I told you, this blog is devoted to every single student I have ever taught in this five years, so...you are one of them for sure!
I strongly recommend the film in the 40s since I consider it deals with the plot wisely.
See you around.
