During the last month, we had received many calls from our readers, telling us about their lives, as part of the project of meeting between readers and the magazine, that we launched by our Facebook page, last month. So, we have decided to make a questionnaire for our callers, asking them about their different habits in daily living, in order to try to know more about them. Here are some of the examples, of the answers we have received from our callers... It´s also important to mention, that all this calls were made from Bogotá, Colombia.

Embarrassing momEnt of my LifE“Well, it happened about 2

years ago...I was having lunch with

my friends at my school´s cafeteria. I was taking the food from the self-service area, to the table where my friends were. I had one tray in each one of my hands, and a lot of tableware pieces in each of the trays, because I was taking a lot of food for my friends.

Then when I was walking to the table, I realized that the floor was very slippery; and suddenly I lost my balance. I didn´t want to break all those tableware pieces, because it would be very expensive. So, I started doing every kind of possible movement, in order to keep the tableware on the trays; but it

seemed like if I were dancing crazily. Everyone was looking at me laughing, I felt pretty embarrassed.

Just then, I could recover my balance, and stand without slipping. It seemed that all the people that were looking at me got impressed (maybe, they thought I was going to fall), and started to perform a big applause, directed to me. Those made me feel proud. I tried to perform a small bow, but I was standing in a very weak position; so I felt to the ground, together with the tableware and food I was carrying.

Everybody started laughing again, but this time lauder than before; I felt so embarrassed I couldn´t even stand up, for a while...”

The Magazine´s correspondents Gabriel and Sebastian, have been looking in many European blogs about terrifying moments. This month’s best true-story, is about Peter, an English guy from Bristol, that have had of the most horrible moments of his life, when living in Paris, France, with his aunt and uncle....

“I´m English, but in the last months I´ve been living in Paris, with my aunt and uncle, many things have taken place in my life since, including one of the most miserable moments of my life...

The high school where I´m studying now is really tedious; I´m really furious about it, the teachers always left us a too much homework, and in consequence I have to work the night long, almost every day.

One Monday, the miserable philosophy teacher left us an extremely long homework, and I was soooo sad. I spent the whole week doing the fucking homework, because I had to present it in Friday; and because it´ll be difficult to complain to such a selfish teacher.

However, until Thursday night, only 60% of

the homework was already completed. So I had to spend the whole Thursday night doing the remaining homework; I passed the night long writing.

Friday morning came and I haven´t finished the homework, but I was about to finish. I was exhausted, but I knew that the philosophy teacher won´t forgive me; so I told to myself: “I´m about to finish, I´ll finish it while I´m having breakfast; there´s still enough time....” Then, while I was preparing breakfast, I put the papers on the dinning-table and started working.

I was about to finish the final paragraph, when I heard the sound of a liquid boiling in the kitchen: the hot chocolate was ready. On the dining-table, I already had put a plate with croissants and a cup for the hot chocolate; the papers where the

homework was written were next to the cup. I felt dizzy when serving the hot chocolate, so I just grabbed the cup with one hand, and in the other I was holding the pot with the hot chocolate; and I just started serving the hot chocolate. I was doing it amusingly, so I didn´t notice what was happening, until I felt a hot liquid falling on my feet; then I realised that I have thrown the whole pot of hot chocolate over the dining-table. And what was worst even...., the homework was ruined! , it was a mess and completely useless!

I felt so miserable, that I didn´t even assisted to school that Friday; then, I tried to explain to the teacher, and fortunately he decided to give me another week, to do the homework properly. But, I´ve learnt a lesson, next time I will do it by computer.
