How to learn new words: HOROSCOPES

Hi everyone!!

Are you enjoying the summer?are you still interested in learning English? a good way of doing so is buying British newspapers, if you are in a seaside resort, you´ll find losts of shops where you can buy the typical English tabloids (The Sun being the most representative) or serious press (for advanced learners) such as The Times or The Guardian.
If you don´t go on holidays, you can follow them online.Just by reading your horoscope everyday you´ll learn new words and colloquial expressions apart from learning what´s going to happen in your near future! Just take the chance, read your horoscope everyday and jot down every new word you learn, in a few days, you´ll have a lot of new words ready to be used!
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/coffeebreak/horoscopes/index.html Follow this link and learn what the future holds for you!!Good luck!!

Let´s see what my horoscope (Sagittarius) foretells for today:Daily Forecast Monday 11 July 2011: Does God believe in himself? Presumably, He or She must. But then, to be divine is to be infinite. Imagine an eternity of total self- confidence. How tedious would that be? You would want to invent someone who doubted you, if only to make existence more interesting. You might even be willing to give away a little of your power to them. There's a thought. Here's another. You are now encountering criticisms and questions. Don't let these distract you from a key point on which you are right! True power this week, rests with you.
