In Spanish how do you say ‘travel directions’?
Context: “with travel directions do you prefer to consult a map, ask someone for a verbal explanation to reach your destination or guess and follow your own nose.”

And for “guess/follow your nose” type translation I’ve put something that I know it’s wrong. any help? even help wording it better in english would help. thanks
“adivinar hasta que llegue ” – very wrong! i know
“preguntar a alguien por direcciones” or should it be “pedir a alguien por/para direcciones” or “sentido de marchar”??

I so can not write spanish and get so confused!

Thanks

How often do you listen to music? Once in a while? More than that?

What kind?

What format?

ME:

How often: A LOT. Every day at some point.

What kind: All kinds, all genres, from all over the globe…. classical to industrial, blues or jazz, to folk, to avante garde and experimental, rock&roll to Middle Eastern oud, trance and ambient to hip hop, Celtic to African to Sami to Gospel….. I have a very eclectic music collection. The only kind I really don’t care much for is modern country….like…uh…uhm….like I wouldn’t listen to Brad Paisley (?) or Taylor Swift or their ilk….no offense, just not into it. I do like some classic country (Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Charlie Pride, etc.) though, and I like “Roots” music and Bluegrass a lot.

Re format: CD’s, tapes, MP3, radio, internet(Pandora, Youtube), vinyl, satellite, live when I can! (Friends or concerts…)

Hello, people. I accidentally left margarine out of the fridge for 24 hours. Not just out of the fridge but open also. Being that it’s not butter… is it safe to eat ? My sense of smell can’t quite tell if there’s a difference. But I’d hate to get sick or anything… Of course I just bought the thing so it’d be a bummer having to throw it out. 2 days ago

Why is it, that everything in life seems to be a competition for some people? This person always has to be better than this person.

Like exchanging hospital stories for e.g. why does the one persons’ hospital encounter(s) have to be worse and more frequent than the next person.

Do you think its because people like to be in the lime-light (spelling sorry :) or is it the need for people to be so much better than the next person / be a more superior human being?

And if so what for? What’s your prize supposed to be in the end? I sometimes find it funny that people try and compete with you / one another for stupid little things that make no sense nor do they mean anything? 2 days ago

I have always cherished dreams involving my father who passed away last year. All my dreams are pleasant all the time involving him: talking to him about current events. Him advising me…etc.

But earlier, it was different. I dream that he killed me and threw my body in the trash.

I signed up last Monday to audition for an upcoming Reality Show what will be looking for new hosts/presenters; but, as you may imagine, it’ll have the classic “characteristics” (or should I say “features”??) of ANY other reality show. As of today, it’s very uncertain if I’ll finally make it to the show. I don’t know… I’m not having any expectation, so, if I make it, great… If I don’t, well… At least I tried to be there. I learned a little how that world works. I did some test scenes for a pilot for an “upcoming” teen tv series when I was like 11, but the series ended up being cancelled even before it were on tv; and I’ve done some other stuff here and there through the years… So, that’s basically my reason to “not being expecting anything”

So, the question is… If you had a reality show of your own (and don’t say “I wouldn’t have it…” let´s suppose for a while you have it, even if you wouldn’t ever want)... How much of your life would you let to be known by everybody?... And I seriously mean everybody.

Would you play a character all the time, or you just wouldn’t care and be exactly who you are everyday to your close people? 5 days ago
