>>you should hear bells ring when you hit your 25th post.<<

winking at Jackie: I must have had the speakers turned off! :o)

I see I'm a "newbie" now; that's a relief - my family seems to think I'm very old!

And I'll try to write more postings.

How can I be so low resorting to this dirty trick?

Olá, Juan Maria. Please respond to my post. It's time you were no longer an estrangero. I can imagine how 'pregnant' * you feel. (This should get you close to 'newbie' status, shouldn't it??)

-----
*cf "false friends" discussion: embarazado = pregnant

Hi Anna,

Here I am writing my way to ‘newbie’. Really, being a stranger makes me feel so embarrassed that I can hardly button my trousers. Or are my pants?.
This thing about growing bellies has reminded me of a funny false friend which, of course, I’m going to write on a different post.

Everybody is invited to the party I'm going to throw next week-end to celebrate my promotion to 'newbie'.
Please, confirm assistance. Plane tickets not included.

From one recently-promoted newbie to another - congratulations juanmaria!

What's the next stage?

Where's the party?

Thank you colleague!.
That’s only the beginning I wouldn’t stop until being CEO.
And the party will be in Malaga Spain. Summer came here a month ago so don’t forget your swimsuit!.

Man, you guys are insane! I can see I'll fit right in
at the party! I had planned to bring my canister of
laughing gas, but I see now I won't need it.
Keep posting, fellas--I love the entertainment!

Your post comes pretty handy. I was looking for some girl who could give me a piece of advice because I haven't got the slightest idea of how a debutante 'newbie' must dress.
