Love is in the Air






I am a singing teacher as my students say. Whenever they exchange glances or tease each other, I sing 'Love is in the air". So in order to celebrate Valentine's Day I invite you all to sing along at YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AH7e3qK0EA

In many countries Valentine's Day is celebrated on 14th February, the day of Saint Valentine but in Brazil it is celebrated on 12th June, one day before Saint Anthony's Day.

In the English-speaking countries, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending cards, presenting flowers or chocolate.

Let's exchange LOVE GREETINGS by filling in the blanks: LOVE IS ...

  30. Love is boring because when you love someone that person doesn't love you back and when someone loves you, you don't love that person. It's very confusing.

  40. Love is the best thing in life. When you love someone it means that you are really fall in love and you do everything to get her love. Love is something very hard to understand. It comes from deep inside of our hearts. Even if the person who you loves does not feel the same for you, you already still loves her more and more.

    Love is...

    ... the name of the sensation we feel when we see another person.
    (Pedro Henrique, Lucas Farina, Mauricio)

    ... a feeling you can't choose the person that you like and you can't control it.
    ... when your eyes shine when you see the person that you like.
    (Juliana, Bia, Paula)

    ... the thing that we hunt all our lives.
    ... the gas that life runs on.
    (Bruno, Gabriel, Vitor)

    ... a sensation that makes you really happy but you need to be careful.
    (Martin, Daniel, Lucas Lima)

    ... the fire inside your heart.
    ... the fireworks in your New Year's Eve.
    ... the apple of your pie.
    ... the cheese in your bread.
    ... something you can't describe.
    (Suzi, Lyz)
