Despite the glorious spring weather, at the moment, I am feeling a little blue. To be, or to feel blue, is a very common idiom which expresses the feeling of sadness of depression. How about cheering me up with a little joke or, you could throw caution to the wind and take me on holiday?

To look forward to something means to think of a future event with pleasurable anticipation, i.e. you are excited about something that will happen in the future.
I am looking forward to hooking up with some mates who are coming to Málaga at the end of next month. Last night I called them to tell them about my plans for things that we can do in Málaga. Thanks to you, I have lots of activities planned. They will definitely fall in love with Málaga and have a blast.
In general, what do you look forward to? Your birthday, the weekend, Halloween, important football matches, sleep? Generally speaking, I look forward to eating and drinking!!!
Easyjet, the budget airline, says: ‘Why not treat yourself to a break in a city break with plenty to keep you busy and to help you relax?’
Madrid and Amsterdam and Leeds are all firm favourites on the city break holiday destination list. Book today and your well-earned city escape could be just around the corner.
To help you choose the perfect city, Easyjet have written a brief summary about the locations they fly to:
Madrid, Spain’s capital, is bursting with culture and activities at every turn – with museums, art galleries and night after night of flamenco. However, if that doesn’t whet your appetite, then you might be pleased to hear that the city has more bars per square metre than anywhere else in Europe!´
On the other hand, if city breaks aren`t your cup of tea, treat yourself to an adventure holiday instead. .

To be, or to feel under the weather is a common idiom used when you are not feeling 100% well. Perhaps you have a slight cold, stomach cramps, a headache or a hangover.
Last Sunday, I felt very under the weather. Unfortunately, it was completely self-inflicted! So, no sympathy required!
Why don’t I learn that it is never, ever, a good idea to mix lager and red wine?!
Anyway, personally speaking, the hangover is definitely the reason why aspirin was invented; and on a positive note, over the years I have kept a lot of chemists in business as a result of my aspirin requirements. OMG, I’m a total business angel!
When I was at school, cookery classes were compulsory. However, because I thought they were extremely boring instead of listening to my teacher, I always had my head in the clouds, daydreaming about disco dancing, eye glitter and lip gloss. I was a huge day dreamer, and as expected, I failed my cookery exams.
