First, I think that learn English in the university is more motivating because it’s more interactive that in the school, also, the university English is more about to speak in English, at school it was the opposite. I love to have English because I can remember all the things I learnt in the secondary, so, I don’t forget about the past simple, the perfect present and that kind of things.

I think that make English blogs are so important to motivate the writing, because when I have to write, always arise doubts about grammar like “how do I write that word?” and then I have to browse and of course I learn a lot.

Also, I have a lot of fun when I read my classmates’ posts, they write about their personal and daily things that live every day.

I think that my pronunciation is not good at all, I can understand and write acceptably but when I have to improvise the word can’t go out of my mouth.  I try to sing aloud and repeat dialogues of a serie or movie to pronounce like the actors; of course it’s always a failure.

Well, right now I’m not using English a lot, because I don’t have any foreign friend or something like that but sometimes I have to watch an episode of series in English because the translation is not ready yet and it’s a little difficult try to understand everything, I have to rewind some parts to understand it at all.

To finish, I would like to say that when the English curse is over, I’d try to still practicing, l don’t know how, but I’ll try, because this is so important to check some web pages, papers of my career, the songs, the series, etc, well  you know, it’s all about English. If I travel to anywhere I’d like the people understand me, I’d like to talk them good. 

Taking care about enviroment

Hi, today I’m going to write about the care of the environment. I think the people learn about environmentally friendly practices in the primary school, the university, internet, and the global campaigns, but not everybody takes the real weight.  In my secondary school, we did a campaign about recycle paper. We recollect a lot of paper and we made the process –watched on youtube- about to recycle. In the first instance we didn’t it so well, because the new paper was so brittle and dark. So we had to use some books and copybooks not so striped.  Now, I only limit myself to not to throw trash on the floor.

Unfortunately I don’t use a bike to go to different places, here is very difficult because of the traffic and the streets and I’m afraid of being knock down, but in my city I can go to almost all the place with my legs!

At the moment I haven’t joined in any eco-organization because I don’t have much time to participate. Also I don’t have much money to give.  Maybe in the future I could support in some way Greenpeace, I like that organization.

Well, I think I do the same thing that people do, try to save energy, have a diet low in carbon and try to walk much as possible, because less CO₂ will be emitted, less polluting gases. CO₂ is the principal gas of the greenhouse effect

I think the Santiago’s priority is not the environment, so not many people knows about things they could do to reduce the carbon footprint.  

I can’t believe the year has passed so fast, it seems that it was only yesterday when January arrived.

One of the best things that could happen this year were enter to the University, but I’ll be honestly, when I realized how the University was I only wanted to leave it.  So, enter to the university was good at the beginning but then It turned in a nightmare. The last time, I have learnt to love it.

A situation that didn’t go so well was the distance that appeared between me and my old school friends, we were a close-knit group, but then we had to move of our little city and made new social life because of the university. We only see in the long holiday weeks, that aren’t many times. We often talk for social networks like skype or facebook but obviously it not replaces a long friendship.

Well, this year I have to go to La Virgen the Andacollo because a request that my family and me done with her, so I think that in December, when I’m free of exams and my parents free of work, we will go there.

A thing I still have to do this year is pass all the subjects, because I don’t want to do a summer course (or repeat a year again), it would waste the half of summer!

As for bad news, the last time in Santiago has appeared some kind of terrorist attacks, especially in the subway; it caused a big fear in the population, including me.

Also, the Ébola made a big impact in the entire world, more than 4,000 people have died in the worst-ever Ebola outbreak ever recorded. 

Avocado Lover

Today I’m going to talk about my favorite fruit, the Avocado.

The avocado is a fruit that can have a lot of variation; there are different types like Hass, Ester, Mejicana or Guatemalteca. It origin is in Mexico and Guatemala.

The avocado has little water and a lot of calories; this is why we can’t eat in excess.  It also has a lot of nutritive elements like oleic acid, vitamin K, and E that are antioxidant and control heart’s activities.  Fats in avocados have high biological value, mainly unsaturated, and, obviously don’t provide cholesterol. Since 900, the avocado tree has been cultivated and grown in Central and South America. Vitamin B promotes the healthy development of cells and tissues.

I personally love this fruit because I can eat it with bread or cookies, in the salad, Fajitas or like fill Avocado.

You can eat this fruit entire or ground. If you can’t recognize an avocado I’m going to learn you: Outside it can be green or black, inside its green/yellow, it has a big stone fruit, with the pass of time, the avocado turns brown/black, I don’t like it! So, to avoid this, you can put the stone fruit in the middle of the ground avocado.  

I’d heard that the avocado can help for the memory, so, when I have a big test, I always eat fill avocado.

So people, never stop eating this beautiful fruit, we would be anything without it. <3
