Open Question: translate this into a spanish II level?

Saturday, February 12th, 2011

I need this translated into a Spanish II level because then my teacher will know that it has been translated because we haven’t learned to say a lot of things yet. Do not use a translater! Very simple Spanish only.

The first day of my trip, I loaded the luggage into my car, checked my bags in, and went to my gate. When it was time to board I got on the plane and I took a nap until we got there. When the plan landed I woke up, grabbed my luggage, and found a taxi. I told the taxi driver to take me to the Haymarket hotel and when I got there I paid him 25 pounds. The first thing I did when I got in the hotel is check in to my room. I showed my passport and was given my room key. A man came to take my bags up for me. When I was checked in, I decided to do a little shopping in Suffolk place.

The second day of my trip I woke up and went to the breakfast bar. I left the hotel and walked through the city to the metro and bought a pass for the rest of the week. I got on the metro and then took a taxi to get to the houses of parliament. I toured the houses of parliament and ate lunch at 2:00 from a hot dog vendor. I came back to the hotel and relaxed for a while. Then I ate at Terra for dinner.

On the third day of my trip, I grabbed a bagel at a nearby shop and got on the nearest metro. After I got off the metro, I caught a taxi and asked the driver to take me to the London Eye. I went on the biggest observation wheel in the world and viewed the city from up high. For lunch, I went to a cafe and enjoyed fish and chips. After that, I got back on the metro and went to my hotel. For dinner, I endulged in the Fat duck restaurant. I came back to the hotel in the evening and crashed.

On the fourth day of my trip, I ate ate the breakfast bar and walked to the metro. I rode the metro until I got to my destination. I caught a taxi and it drove me to Buckingham palace. I toured Buckingham palace and took some photos. I had a sandwich at a cafe and then went back to Suffolk place. I did some more shopping and bought myself a new purse. I had dinner and went back to my hotel.

Open Question: Is there some way to avoid cooking (cleaning) for the next month?

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

Here is the situation: My boyfriend and I are going to be spending a lot of time working for the next month, maybe 2 months. We’re talking like like 80-90 hours a week. But the main thing is that this is also going to involve lots of weird hours, pulling all nighters, working through standard meal times, that kind of thing. This started this week and I’m a little confused how to deal with the seemingly basic problem of feeding myself.

Some info: We live in a European city where eating out regularly is not really an option. It’s very expensive. Also, we will (with the long work hours) be working well after things (restaurants, grocery stores) have already closed. So we can go to the grocery store maybe 1-2 times a week. We’d like to eat at least kind of healthy. I don’t want to feel ashamed if my mother asks me what I had for dinner. Our fridge and freezer (especially freezer) are small. The reason I mention where we live is that when I lived in America this was easy. There are late night restaurants/fast food joints, grocery stores are open late, convenience items are a lot easier to come by (decent frozen meals available even at regular grocery stores), and I had a comparatively massive fridge and freezer. But now I don’t have those options, so I don’t know what to do.

I guess what I am looking for here is a sort of novel solution about the food problem. I mean, we do have to eat. But it literally feels like there is no time, not just for preparation, but for actual purchase of food as well.

What do you do to avoid cooking? Any specific meals that you turn to? Or do you have a good system of avoiding cooking? I thought about freezing meals but our freezer is small and we basically have 1 day off. I don’t want to spend it slaving together in the kitchen to generate food for the rest of the week. I would love ideas on at least somewhat healthy meals that can be made in less than 20 mins without a ton of chopping or shopping. 1 pot-bowl-plate meals also appreciated, since it’s fewer things to wash. We’re not picky eaters.

And if you have some tips on keeping the apartment reasonably tidy you can throw those in as well.

Oh, and I would really appreciate strategies or meals that you’ve actually tried, not just a recipe off the internet!

Open Question: French natives…I need translation!?

The text that is in English I need translated to French ASAP!

Thank You!

1. Qu’est-ce que vous avez fait pendant les vacances de Printemps?

-Pendant les vacances de Printemps,….
I didn’t do much. I decided to return to my city of origin. During the week, I had to look for an apartment for the next school year. So, I decided to drive to College Station which took me a little over an hour by car. I searched around the town until I found me a nice complex that was close to the university. It was rather expensive and the apartment would cost me about $600 per month with everything included. I wanted to get it, so therefore I got it. For the rest of the week, I spent time with family members that I don’t regularly get to see because I am very far away. My spring break was rather exciting but I felt that it went by too quickly!

2. Qu’est-ce qu’on doit faire pour rester en bonne sante ?

-Je pense que pour rester en bonne sante, on devrait……
First have confidence within themselves. They must want to have good health enough and want it badly. The key to having good health is to eat healthy. One must always eat light and healthy meals. By consuming more vegetables and fewer fats, then one could greatly improve their health. Also, one should get a yearly routine check-up in order to maintain good health because the doctor could give you great advice. Also, one must get an adequate amount of rest in order to fully recuperate their body. One could choose to purchase organic foods, but they are usually a little more expensive, but if you can afford it, then it would be a great option as well!

3. Que ferez-vous quand vous aurez fini vos études ?

-Apres j’ai fini mon études, je d’habitude…..
Go to the mall with my friends. We entertain ourselves by walking around aimlessly. After, we may go to the movies to see the last showing of the day. Usually I try to remain active so I go to the gym for about an hour to exercise. I usually do weight-training with my personal trainer and then I’ll do cardio on my own time. Around the afternoon time, if there are any musical concerts going on, then I would attend those but they are rare to find. I have a bad habit of eating late, so you will usually find me at a restaurant ordering food, but other than that, that’s about it!
