Great page!! But as it usually happens, nowadays Gema doesn't exist for anybody. I found Gemma, which means "precious stone" in Italian. What about yours, Susana?

Susana said...

Hello Gema!
I'm not the teacher Susana. I'm Susana from 1ºC, but I think I can answer your question too:
I have just looked for my name, and this is what I have found:
It says that Susana is the Spanish, Italian and Portuguese form of SUSANNA.
Susanna has several meanings about flowers , like "lily", "rose" or "lotus", and in the Old Testament Susana the name of a woman falsely accused of adultery.

see ya! xxx :)

Hello Gema and Susanas!

I´m Tamara, I have saw the page and I have said: I must write here!

I want to say that I´m angry because I couldn´t find the page the last day and Susana write before me.

Happy birthday Luci!

I´m going to sleep, it´s very late and tomorrow Gema will say:
Tamara ¿what does happen to you in the face?

See you tomorrow!

Hi!

Look here in this blog for the "Idiot Test", not the "Stupid Test" as I wrote in my last post. It is on the right, written in green.
I hope you enjoy it a lot.
