Camino

3.Write a paragraph (about thirty words) using both regular and irregular verbs in the preterite tense (for example, talk about what you and/or a friend did yesterday). Include at least three prepositions.

I am trying to say in spanish:
I went to school and completed an engineering project which was very difficult. I brought food for a short break, then went to economics. I made my way home.

Fui a la escuela y completar un proyecto de ingeniería que fue muy difícil. Fui trajiste comida para un pequeño descanso. Luego fue a la economía. Hice mi camino a casa.

Is this right? or what can I do to improve it and follow what the teacher wants? thank you.

Right now, your paragraph says:

I went to school and to complete an engineering project that was very difficult. I went you brought food for a small break. Then I went to the economy. I made my walk home.

Okay, so it’s pretty close! Just a few things…
Fui a la escuela y *completé un proyecto de ingeniería que fue muy difícil. *Traje comida para un pequeño descanso. Luego, fui a *la clase de *económica. Hice mi camino a *mi casa.

I’m not sure if "pequeño descanso" should be "descanso pequeño." I know that usually adjectives come first, but there’s some special circumstance when dealing with quantifying adjectives. Hurm.

Hello!
Some friends and I are planning to walk sections of the Camino de Santiago in March 2011, arriving and departing Spain at the Madrid airport.

We want to use 2 cel phones to help the group stay together, and rent a small van to help shuttle the group from section to section.

I’d like to know if cel phone coverage is available along most of the Camino de Santiago …. no sense in bringing them if they won’t work!

I’m looking for advice from people with experience in either area (phone rental/purchase and van rental).

Thanks in advance,

Ask your cell phone provider if your phone will work in Spain. Remember they use 220 volts in Spain, not 110 volts.

I would advise buying the cheapest pay phones when you get there.

The best coverage is Moviestar but you pay a premium.

Locally, the most popular provider (queuesin shop) is Vodafone.

I’m looking to buy my fist car. I love 78- 82 El Camino’s. I was wondering how much it would coast to rebuild most of the parts ( transition, engine, carburetors, ect.) My dad has the lifts and stuff to do it I just need to know how much money is needed.

you can tie up about $6,000 just in rebuilding the drive train, that’s not including any body work or anything else on the vehicle.

Julio Iglesias’ Songs

Ni te tengo, ni te olvido

Yo no sé que hacer contigo
Ni te tengo ni te olvido
Ni quiero seguir así
Juguete de tus caprichos.

Para que quererte tanto
Para que tanto deseo
Para que este loco amor
Que lo quiero y no lo quiero.

Y es que ya me acostumbré
A tu forma de entregarte
Al calor que hay en tu piel
Y al placer de acariciarte

Cuando te sientes mujer
No hay cariño para darte
Cuando te sientes mujer,
Que daría por tener
Tus caricias cada día
Y poderte complacer
Cada vez que fueras mía
Que daría por saber
Que jamás te perdería.

No acierto a ver el camino
Que me separe de ti
No puedo seguir contigo
Ni puedo vivir sin ti.

Que daría por tener
Tus caricias cada día
Y poderte complacer
