Holidays!

Hi. since today i'm on summer holidays! I'm so happy because the semester is finished and i love the summer :).
For this summer i have many plans. First i need to save money to travel in February and i want to sing in micro buses. I am going to do it in December because in January and February i will be away from Santiago..
Every year in January i go to scout camp for 18 or 20 days. This year we want to go the south but we don't know if we are going to Selva de Valdivia or Cochamo, as the last year. The decision depends on scout childrens, they are 18 years old and i think that they are old enough to decide. Therefore we will go to differents places in the same travel. I think that this is a good "job", I enjoy to be with them. 
For February i plan to travel in bike to the Carretera Austral with Victor. In this week we buy different things for the travel like lockable, two lights and other things that we are going to need. In two weeks we want to go to Valparaiso in bike to prepare better for the trip. I have never go went Carretera Austral and the people told me that it is very beautiful. I don't hope going far necessarily, I only hope enjoy and see beautiful landscapes.

I'm very excited about the summer holidays, and i hope you enjoyed yours!

BYe!

The english class


Hello! Today I’m going to talk about this semester’s english class
I think that this is the English class where I have learned the most. I think that it is because there are very few students and we can talk much more during the class and there is more time to ask any questions. In other classes there were so many people that it was very boring for those who didn´t knew much, like me. I think that if the classes could be much smaller the people there could take much more advantage of the time and everyone could learn more !
Using the blog for me was very hard because I have a lot of trouble putting the sentences together and using proper grammar, but I think that is a very good way of learning how to write and sometimes it can even be fun to read my other classmate’s blogs. It makes the class more dynamic and less repetitive.
Outside of English class, the truth is that I don´t use english a lot, sometimes we have to read articles in english for university and things like that. But the language used there is different, is much more technical than the one we learned in this class. I think that the English classes should focus more in that kind of things so we could use it more in our other classes.
There is a lot to improve about my English skills, I still struggle about verbal tenses and I have a very small vocabulary, but I think that in order to improve that I just need practice, for this it really helps to watch movies, listen songs, read things in English, etc.
I have had a really good time in English this year and I think that I have a lot more learning to do and I hope to it.

Bad and good things



Hello! Today I will write about different thinks, bad and good, that have happened in my life.
Something that makes me very, very happy is to be aunt. My niece Laura was born two years ago. I love her, she is sweet and I have a great time playing with her and watching her grow. Two months ago was born Peter. He is her brother and made me very happy too. 
Another thing that makes me happy is to be scout. I enjoy the time with the boys and I think they are learning a lot. And, at the same time, I’m working with my friends, which makes it all very nice.
Among the things that have not gone so good, might I change my studies in 2011. But I think in the end all I'm happy with the way things went, the people I met in my previous career and in the current. I am very happy with my friends and my boyfriend, and I would not be the same if I had never changed.

About my "achievements" in 2014, especially this semester at the university, I think I did very good in the classes that I liked more! I've also come a long bike and that makes me happy because I will used to my summer plans. I want to go in February at the Southern Road bike with my boyfriend and for that you have to practice a lot because it must be a very difficult road. 
I think between the slopes for making me would raise money for summer travel and sleep long hours every days.
