English Language Challenges

Well, it's our last post here and I'm very thankful about our work here in classes. I didn't have very high expectations, because I thought that it was an easy assignment, but here I realized that I didn't know a lot of things about grammatical rules and verbal tenses. At the beggining, I was closed to know more about the teacher, but in time, I realized that it was such a sweet person and I appreciate teachers like her (I think everyone does). Also, I realized that I was very afraid of talking in English, even when it was in front of a camera, so I'm thankful about that too. I really like to write, so I enjoyed the blog and also the creating process of the videos.

In a personal way, I've been close to this language since I was little because of my brother and sisters. They knew a lot about how to talk, how to write and I was close to them seeing how they did it. So I was kind of self-taught child in this topic. I began to listen to music in English, to read in English and I improved a lot. Then, I stopped for many reasons. Maybe I got bored of it, but now I discovered that I know more than I thought and I could challenge myself everyday to improve again.

I hope that more people could be into this language in order to get more opportunities to know more about work related things in other parts of the world. I think English classes are really important because today it's a requirement in many work places.

Summer Vacations

I love summer vacations. It's my favourite time of the year.
I think that my favourite part is to be able to do whatever I want without much compromise with University. I mean, you don't have to study if you don't want to and you don't have to be in classes with hot temperatures. I think it's a perfect time. Also, the moon appears very late, so it's possible to do many plans in the same day. On next summer vacations, I'll go to Quito, Ecuador. My parents were transfered for work to that city, so I'll be their company in this important step. They will go for work and I'll go for vacations and, obviously, to help them at their new house. I don't know much about Quito, but I would like to go to Quito Old Town, ride the Teleferiqo Cable Car, stand at the Middle of the World and maybe do some daytrip to the Amazon. 

I'm very lazy, so I really want to change that to be able and motivated for a long time there. I mean, it's not that I suffer because of that, but sometimes I think that I lose so many fun things because of my laziness. Also, I would like to be the best company for my parents because we're going to be separated for about 3 years until they return to Chile. However, I want to chill and relax until I come back for my regular classes and 4th year of University :)

I hope I can write some things about Quito when I come back. For now, there's only dreams and hopes about this trip. Thank you for reading!
