 What's the difference between bù ，méi ，and bié ?

Nel tempo libero Jimmy fa un sacco di cose. Come sappiamo, Jimmy è un signore molto ricco che non lavora e ha tanto tempo libero.

Il suo hobby principale è studiare l’italiano. Anche se abita in Italia da qualche mese, il suo italiano non è ancora buono. Ama anche passeggiare, fare sport all’aria aperta e vogare la gondola.

Nel fine settimana, se il tempo è bello va a fare delle escursioni in montagna. Se fa brutto rimane a Venezia e va al cinema per vedere un film con il suo amico Marco. Una volta al mese va a vedere uno spettacolo a teatro e una mostra al museo.

A volte fa un viaggio con gli amici: ama visitare le città d’arte e fare fotografie.

Marco non ha molto tempo libero perché lavora tanto. Tutti i mercoledì sera, però, gioca a calcio con gli amici. Nel fine settimana va al cinema con Jimmy, mangia al ristorante e poi va a ballare in discoteca.

Quando è di cattivo umore, suona la chitarra e canta. Quando è di buon umore legge un libro o una rivista di elettronica.

Marco ama anche fare shopping di oggetti tecnologici, stare al computer, navigare su internet e chiacchierare con gli amici su Whatsapp.

みなさんには子供の頃から大事にしている、お気に入りのぬいぐるみはありますか？
私はおととしのクリスマスプレゼントにゴリラのぬいぐるみをもらいました。

特にテディベアは世界中で人気があります。
私のぬいぐるみの好きなところはぷっくりした丸みのあるおなかとくりくりした目です。
とてもかわいくて、見るたびにいやされます。

In this episode, we look at five idioms about meeting new people. Here are the example sentences I use in the podcast:

How did you and Sara meet?
Well, she saw me reading a book she liked, and asked me what I thought of it to strike up a conversation.
It felt a little odd at first, since I had been so focused on the book. Then, she made a joke about how boring we both must be, to read a book like that. It really broke the ice. 
I really wanted to put my best foot forward, so I told her everything I knew about the book and its author. 
Fortunately, she was interested in what I said about the book, and we really hit it off. 
However, when I met her sister, I said the wrong thing and really got off on the wrong foot. She doesn’t like me at all.

1.  Respond truthfully to the questions asked

While it can seem tempting to embellish your skills and accomplishments, interviewers find honesty refreshing and respectable. Focus on your key strengths and why your background makes you uniquely qualified for the position.

2.  Tie answers to your skills and accomplishments
With any interview question you answer, tie your background to the job by providing examples of solutions and results you’ve achieved in your career so far. Use every opportunity to address the requirements listed in the job description.

3. Keep your answers concise and focused
Remember: Your time with each interviewer is limited so be mindful of rambling answers. Practicing your answers beforehand can help keep you focused.

CLEPTOMANÍA.
-¿Cómo está usted señor Paniagua?
Y su hijo, ¿ya se ha curado de su cleptomanía?
-Todavía no, pero en cierto modo ha mejorado. Ahora ya trae a la casa objetos de más valor.

CLEPTOMANÍA.

DOCTOR A SU PACIENTE:
-No debe usted abusar del TEQUILA. Por lo menos tiene que beber tres veces más agua que de Tequila. Venga a verme dentro de ocho días.
A los ocho días el paciente está más enfermo que antes.
-¿Hizo usted lo que le ordené? -pregunta el médico.
-Sí, doctor, estoy bebiendo tres veces más de agua que de Tequila... y créame que es una tortura.
¡Hay días que me trago treinta litros de agua!
