New Year's Resolution

 Happy New Year everyone! I hope you are safe and sound!

Before the advent of 2021 I was thinking what resolutions I would make for the New Year. 

So the first one I decided on is to lose weight. This is my top resolution which I hope to achieve once I stop drinking alcohol. And mind you, I drink a lot of it! Regarding food, luckily I have a healthy diet and stay in shape by walking at least 2 kilometres every morning. I used to go swimming at the pool nearing my house but due to the lockdown in Greece, all pools are closed. How unfortunate!

Second comes my self-confidence which unluckily I don't have. I have decided to make my life more comfortable by focusing on my achievements and seeing whatever failure as an opportunity to improve myself in all fields. 

Third, I want to try and reduce my stress. It is said that stress is one of the biggest killers out there, and it can have a very destructive effect on all fields. So it's time for me to become stress-free. 

Last but not least, I have decided to live life to the fullest. I will do what makes me happy ( carry on writing the sequel/standalone novel of  " One more smile..." and carry on teaching English, a profession I would never give up). I will do the things I love because life is too precious to be doing anything else. If you don't enjoy something, then don't do it. Spend your time and energy on things that bring you fulfillment and happiness. 

I would like to hear what your New Year's Resolution(s) was/were so we can share ideas. 

Wishing you a brilliant and happy new year. May 2021 bring you much happiness and prosperity.


Yours, 

Chrisoula

Christmas Mood

 Hi all!  Christmas is on its way but this year I don't really feel the Christmas spirit.  It's definitely because of the Coronavirus pandemic.  However,  my daughter and her friend decorated the Christmas tree and the rest house and both are waiting for Santa's presents.  Will he make it this year? Or is he - like billions of people - suffering from the pandemic?  Give me a hint of how you feel this 'festive'  season.  How are you going to celebrate Christmas Day?  Are you going to have lunch or dinner together with friends and family or not? Are you going to give presents to your beloved ones or not? Are you expecting any presents?  I know it should be a surprise but I already know what my present will be for my name day which always falls on Christmas day.  A camera! It may sound stupid but since I am going to get a new PC I need a camera.  So there it is...  It'll be here within this week but will be given to me o...

Coronavirus

 Hi everyone,  How are you doing?  As you all know, apart from being an author, I'm an English teacher as well.  The thing is that, with all this COVID 19 thing going on I have to wear a mask when I go to my students' house. As I have had my brain surgery, I need to be extra careful not to contract COVID 19 or catch a cold or another virus.  It's frustrating I must say, as it is difficult to pronounce the words to the little ones who are learning the basics of English. Sometimes I have to move further to the back of the room, pull my mask down and pronounce the word and have them repeat after me. It's difficult for them too, as they need to learn the phonetics through me but the good thing about this is that they are willing to learn English with me. They were very happy to see me when the quarantine was over. They came up to me, hugged me, kissed me... What else can a teacher ask for? Their students' love.  Well, I hope this pandemic is eliminated as soon ...
