gracias =) i did translate it first but didnt understand it now i do a poco thanks

Congratulations for translating something you didn't understand and then asking what your translations meant.

Next time you may not find someone willing to do your assignment so try to give it a try and then look for opinions about it, which is the purpose of help when one's learning.

All the translations above look good, but I would suggest the following translation for this line:

siempre me salen las cosas mal

Things always turn out bad for me

I believe "chivay" should be "chicar".

Ir a chicar a la fiesta. - To go drinking at the party.

What do you think?

Andre, this would certiainy make more sense, but I could not find the verb 'chicar' in my extensive Oxford Spanish Dictionary - FELIZ77, May 23, 2014
Maybe it's slang. You can find it in SD and other places on the web. - 00551866, May 23, 2014

hasta contigo me salio mal -- Even with you it turned out badly

no me salio como lo esperaba--- It didn't go as I hoped ( It didn't end as I hoped it would)

¡Hola Broodjeparkiet and welcome!

I can give you a rough translation, I don't think the original Spanish sentences are 100% correct but at least it will give you an idea...

pero nunca me di tiempo para ir a chivay a la fiesta: But he / she never gave me time to go to Chivay to the party

siempre se me presentaron otros percances: Different misfortunes always come up to me

siempre me salen las cosas mal: Bad things always happen to me

hasta contigo me salio mal: This sentence seems to miss something, I think this person means to say: untill I was with you I was miserable / things weren't going well for me

no me salio como lo esperaba: things didn't go as I hoped

ohhh la amistad es mas linda: Ohh... friendship is more beautiful

(Other members, please correct any mistakes I may have made...)

I hope this helps!

Saludos, ChicaSabrosa

It doesn't help that you do others' assignments; just the opposite. - diagonx, May 23, 2014

but I mever allowed myself the time to go to Chavay to the party.

I was always thwarted by other mishappenings/issues

For example on Sunday I have an exam..

they always turn out to be bad incidents/things for me. (this one is difficult to make out)

even with you it turned out bad for me

it didn't turn out the way i expected.

:ohhh friendship is more beautiful
