Activity 2

The Alchemist is an easy story with a deep message. It is a message to follow your heart and search for your dreams. The book is about a young man named Santiago who lives in Spain and works as a shepherd. He begins to have strange dreams so he goes to a Gypsy to find out what they mean. The Gypsy tells him that he needs to go to the Egyptian pyramids to find his treasure. Of course he does not believe her. But later he meets another person who tells him the same thing. At last Santiago decides to give up his life as a shepherd and go find his treasure.

Santiago encounters many problems as he goes on his journey. He meets many people and learns a lot along the way. He also learns to listen to and trust the Soul of the World. Does he ever find his treasure? And why is the book called The Alchemist? I can't tell you. You will have to read the book if you want to find out.

The Alchemist was originally written in Portuguese by Paulo Coelho, a Brazilian author. It has been translated into many languages, including, of course, English. It is a good book for people who are learning English because most of the sentences are fairly short and you will recognize a lot of the vocabulary. There are definitely words you will not know at first, but with a little patience and study you should be able to finish (and maybe enjoy) the book. They say patience is a virtue whether you are learning English or trying out new catfish fishing lures for the first time. This book is a great choice for readers learning the English language. And hopefully you will be able to follow your dreams as well.

I Knew You Were Trouble

Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago,

I was in your sights, you got me all alone.

You found me

You found me

You found me...


I guess you didn't care, and I guess I liked that,

And when I fell hard, you took a step back.

Without me

Without me

Without me...


And he's long gone, when he's next to me,

And I realize the blame is on me.


'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now

I flew into places I'd never been,

So you put me down

Oh, I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now

Flew me to places I'd never been,

Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground.


Oh, Oh

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble.

Oh, Oh

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble.


No apologies, he'll never see you cry,

Pretends he doesn't know that he's the reason why.

You're drowning

You're drowning

You're drowning...


Now I heard you moved on, from whispers on the street,

A new notch in your belt is all I'll ever be.

And now I see,

now I see,

now I see...


He was long gone when he met me,

And I realize the joke is on me.


I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now

I flew into places I'd never been,

So you put me down

Oh, I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now

I flew into places I'd never been,

Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground.


Oh, Oh

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble.

Oh, Oh

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble.


And the saddest fear, comes creeping in,

That you never loved me, or her, or anyone,

or anything, yeah...


I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now

I flew into places I'd never been,

So you put me down.

Oh I knew you were trouble when you walked in

(knew right there, knew right there).

So shame on me now

I flew into places I'd never been.

Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground.


Oh, Oh

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble.

Oh, Oh

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble.


I knew you were trouble when you walked in.

Trouble, trouble, trouble.

I knew you were trouble when you walked in.

Trouble, trouble...
