MONDAY 17/18

I have a smart mobile phone. I use it everyday as an alarm clock,for calling,messages,photos.
Sometimes I use the internet.
I remember my mobile phone number, of course. Also I remember my husband's, daughter's, son's and mother's phone numbers, because this is my family.
My phone has many numbers that I don't remember.
I know my postcode, because it is very light = easy

All I can say, Drugelis, is : you have a good memory! Because you remember your family's phone numbers.

You didn't do any grammatical mistakes

Just two mistakes with vocabulary:
1.
People usually call smart phones just 'smart phones', they don't call them 'smart mobile phones'.
2.
Easy - lengvas, nesudėtingas protinio suvokimo prasme
Light - lengvas, nesunkus pojūčių prasme (kvapas, skonis, svoris ir panašiai)

Thank you and best luck!

I arrived in a bed and breakfast hotel in Los Angeles.

-A single, please, I say (because I am travelling alone)
-We have a single room with a balcony and with a wonderful view to the beach. It's 100 dollars a night. There is also another room with a king-size bed and free TV channels for 120 dollars a night.
-Do you have anything cheaper ([čype] - pigiau)?
-I'm sorry, Madam, but it is all I can offer.
-What floor are these rooms on?
- The room with the view is on the first floor and the other room is on the ground floor.

The sun is shining, it is very noisy on the beach and there aren't curtains or blinds ([ke/r/teinz] (užuolaidos) [blaindz] žaliuzės) on the windows! I phone the reception and I ask:
-Excuse me, can I have any curtains or blinds on the windows in my room? I would like to sleep, but it is too sunny and too noisy in my room.
-Sure, madam. The room service will arrive in your room in a minute.

Two young women (they were hotel maids [meidz] kambarinės) came in to my room. They put the curtains on the windows and turned on the air conditioning for me. I was glad and I went to bed. I slept for three hours . I woke up (atsibudau) refreshed!

3. Write on the Forum about top five things you usually have with you .
Parašykite forume apie penkis svarbiausius daiktus, kuriuos paprastai turite su savimi.
1. How many bags do you have? Do you have your favourite bag?
2. What things do you keep in your bag? In your pocket? Write 5 things, please (to keep [ki:p] - laikyti, turėti pastoviai)
3. Do you have a fovourite thing? Why is this thing special to you?

Jurate's Top 5 Things.

I don't carry ([keri] nešioju) bags , I prefer backpacks [be:kpe:ks] (kuprines). I always have a backpack with me. Backpacks are comfortable. I put all my shopping (pirkinius) in my backpack and it is easy to carry.
In my backpack I keep my wallet. There's my credit card, some coins, a calendar, my loyalty cards ( [lojalti ka/r/dz] parduotuvių kortelės).

I also have my keys in my backpack. These are my home keys and my office keys.

I like to take a bottle of water with me. But not in the winter, because in the winter it is too cold to drink water from a bottle.

I always have some chewing gum with me. I keep it in my backpack. I like to chew gum, it is not very polite. I have to stop to chew gum

And my fovourite thing is my iPod. I don't keep it in my bag, I don't keep it in my pocket - I pin ([pin] prisegu) it to my clothes because this iPod is very small and light [lait] (lengvas). I listen to English conversations and radio shows on my iPod. I enjoy it a lot! I take my iPod with me everywhere I go.

I don't often take my mobile phone with me. I also never have any cosmetics, medicine or perfume with me. I don't use cosmetics.
