My life is changing This morning I'm acting strange. It's cold outside, but the sun is shining in the sky. The green around wraps myself. I'm at home, ready for my life, for my Italian classes... I added news hours in the morning, now I can't. My days are changing and I will change with them. Hopeful, I'm going ahead!

<em>I feel somehow different this bright and chilly morning, wrapped in the green leaves of life</em>

<em></em><em>Branching from the trees surrounding my window</em>

<em>I'm looking forward to working more; sharing more of my language today and in the future</em>

<em>I'm ready for this change --  I know it's going to be good</em>

<em>Good morning Sonia. Your phrase: "I added news hours in the morning, now I can't" does not make sense, is there another way of saying it? </em>

My Life is Changing

This morning I'm acting feeling strange. It's cold outside, but the sun is shining in the sky. The green wraps itself around me wraps myself. I'm at home, ready for my life, for my Italian classes... I used to listen to the news added news hours in the morning, now I can't. My days are changing and I will change with them. Hopeful, I'm going ahead!

My life is changing

This morning I'm acting strange. It's cold outside, but the sun is shining in the sky. The green around wraps myself. I am wrapped in green. I'm at home, ready for my life, for my Italian classes... I added news hours in the morning, now I can't cannot add any more. My days are changing and I will change with them. Hopeful, I'm going forward ahead!

 

Sonia:- It's best to avoid the too obvious phrase. So if the sun were shining somewhere else but in the sky then it would be worth noting that. Here, however, it is in its usual place so there is no need to mention it. The same thing with living your life. As this is the usual state of affairs there is no need for "my". Finally, those pesky phrasal verbs, the expression is to "go forward". There is an expression "to go on ahead" but this means something slightly different.

 

Ciao bella! Onward and upward!

I wonder if perhaps you meant, "I am surrounded by green/greenery" If you meant that the beautiful green trees in the picture are all around you.

 

(It would help if you write it also in Italian, I think we are misunderstanding some of what you are saying. For example, I am acting strange means "Mi sto comportando in modo strano"  I would guess that it is not what you were trying to say)
