!Mira que luna! Look at that moon! Resources for learning English
Fernando Olivera: El rapto.- TEXT FROM THE NOVEL The goldfinch by Donna Tartt (...) One night we were in San Antonio, and I was having a bit of a melt-down, wanting my own room, you know, my dog, my own bed, and Daddy lifted me up on the fairgrounds and told me to look at the moon. When "you feel homesick", he said, just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go". So after he died, and I had to go to Aunt Bess -I mean, even now, in the city, when I see a full moon, it's like he's telling me not to look back or feel sad about things, that home is wherever I am. She kissed me on the nose. Or where you are, puppy. The center of my earth is you". The goldfinch Donna Tartt 4441 English edition

IDIOMS. Make yourself at home. 04-06-2011.


make yourself at home
Meaning: If you make yourself at home, you relax and feel comfortable in someone else's home.
For example:
When we arrived at my apartment, I showed my guests the sofa and said, "Make yourself at home."
Bill certainly knows how to make himself at home. Within five minutes of arriving he'd turned on my TV and helped himself to a beer from my fridge. 
Quick Quiz:
I said "Make yourself at home" after
inviting my friends inside
arriving at my friend's house
driving my friend to the airport
