<p>Hi there y'all,</p>
<p>Just wanted to welcome you all to the new course we're starting this afternoon, September 16th.</p>
<p>I hope this year will be as productive and fulfilling as last year, and hope we all can achieve the goals to be set out this afternoon in our first meeting session.</p>
<p>Just like last course, this blog alongside the school's website should work as a means of communication among students and the teacher, as well as a place to find useful information which you can use further on in the classroom.</p>
<p>Some assignments will also be set out so as to be fulfilled here. It is advisable to visit this blog once a week at least for that matter, especially if you won't be attending the classes for some time.</p>
<p>Cheers!</p>

<p>Hi there,</p>
<p>here's a nice little video where you can watch and listen to our Spanish representative for the next Eurovision contest in Moscow, Soraya, speaking in English in an interview. Among other things, she talks about the start of her singing career in the Spanish Pop Idol TV reality show and her former job as a flight attendant. She adds information about her origin in Extremadura and her prospects for the future. She's beautiful and she speaks English very well! Bet she can sing very well too!</p>

<p>Lyrics</p>
<p>"Long Black Veil"</p>
<p>Ten years ago, on a cold, dark night<br />
There was someone killed 'neath the Town hall light<br />
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed<br />
That the man who ran looked a lot like me</p>
<p>She walks these hills in a long black veil<br />
She visits my grave while the night winds wail<br />
Nobody knows, nobody sees<br />
Nobody knows but me</p>
<p>The judge said Son, what's your alibi<br />
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die<br />
I spoke not a word thought it meant my life<br />
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife</p>
<p>(Refrain)</p>
<p>The scaffold was high and eternity near<br />
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear<br />
But sometime at night when the cold winds moan<br />
In a long black veil she cries over my bones</p>
<p>(Refrain) </p>
<p>Have a nice weekend!</p>
