 Hi I'm Rita and I'm studying Translation. I'm 18 years old and I live in Odivelas, near Lisbon, with my mother and with my sister and brother, who are also studying at University. I'm a little shy. I consider myself a very realistic person, as well as individualist and perfeccionist. I'm also a fighter. The most important things in my life are my family and friends.
I'm still adapting to this new life, because I didn't know anyone here at Nova, since my friends are all in other Universities...
About my hobbys, I love listenning to music. I like all kind of music, but my favourite bands/singers are 3 Doors Down, Incubus, Coldplay, Michelle Branch, Snow Patrol, John Mayer, Amos Lee and Ben Harper. I watch TV almost everyday, specially series and movies. When I have some free time I go to the Cinema with my friends and when I can I go to a Concert. If I could, I would go to a Concert every week! :)
In the future I would like to work in subtitling or as an interperter, in preference in a foreign country as England or USA.
To finish, I hope I like my degree and I wish good luck for all of you!!

This is my Interview with RAQUEL:
Raquel – Hi I’m Raquel and I’m interviewing Rita. Hi Rita!
Rita – Hi!
Raquel – I (and certainly our colleagues) would like to know your opinion about our English class.
Rita – I like our class. The teacher and the other students are very nice and until now I've enjoyed the different works we have done.
Raquel – And what do you think about our class Blog?
Rita – I think it allowed us to know each other better, once we could read the profiles and find out more about the other students.
Raquel – Do you like the idea of making a Blog with some other students from our class?
Rita – Well, I like the idea, but I’m still guessing what we are going to do with it!
Raquel – We have already read your profile, but is there anything more you’d like to tell us about yourself?
Rita – I dont’ think so... But if anyone wants to know something else, they can ask me!
Raquel – Why did you choose to graduate in Translation?
Rita – I decided to become a translator, because I thought it would be very interesting to know and speak several languages. Besides, I really enjoy speaking English, and translation allowed me not only to continue improving my English, but also to learn another language.
Raquel – Ok, thank you Ritinguita! ;)

Hi Rita

All your creative work will go up on the blog adn you will soon be asked to visit the other group blogs and leave comments. There will also be a group evaluation task at some stage.
