englishenglishenglish

I remember my first English classes; I’ve learned colors, fruits and parts of the house during three consecutive years in primary school. When I change from school the level of English increased and it wasn’t difficult to me to reach it. It always has been easy for me to learn English, and I’ve always liked it too. I enjoyed singing famous songs in English classes, making plays and videos, and I remember once we even had to make a poem. I used to like it, until it turned boring since 3rd year of secondary. Last year, at level three at the university I used to write about some of my feelings, I think I just wanted to get that out of my chest. Anyway, I like to learn and practice English, but particularly this year I had serious problems with the schedule, and to wake up on time every day to go to classes, not just to arrive early, but to assist. It’s a shame. I like writing on a blog, a lot, really, because it’s funny to write in English about some topics I like to talk about, it’s like another way to express some ideas, but sometimes I am just not in the mood, I don’t know why, but I just don’t want to do it.

I think I should improve my reading comprehension in English, and the same in listening, because I know how to express myself, but it is difficult to me to understand others when they talk in English. It’s weird, but I feel weak in those aspects. One way to improve those aspects is watching movies and tv shows with the audio and subtitles in English.

These days I am using English in common expressions but wrong written like: jaguaryú, gudnait and ameising, like they sounds to me.


It’s important to keep in mind the sense of what do you want to say when you talk in another language, and even the pronunciation is important to don’t get misunderstood.

What do you want from me 2014?

For me this year started really bad emotionally, I was much stressed and that keeps me far from everything that was happening. But I also had enjoyable trips and over the months I could realize why I used to have time to do all the things for the classes and now I haven’t, that means: something new appears on my itinerary (which also means: less time for sleeping).

This year began so weird, I was at some lost town at the New Year’s Eve with my whole family, and a terrible radio signal, with any clock at my uncle’s house and all the cellphones with different times. We didn’t noticed when it happens, the oldest were dunked, my cousins were bored, and suddenly somebody screamed (I think my mom) that we were late for the hugs. Other said that we still had two minutes left. We never knew what time really was, so we didn’t care and raised glasses in that uncertain time.  

In January I finished the filming of my documentary (but the editing is not ready yet) and had time for existential problems.

Then in February I went to the beach for a week with my friends from school and had our second spiritual retreat, but it was less spiritual than the last time, shame on us. A week later I went to The End of the World with my parents and sister, I mean, we flew to Punta Arenas and travel around there for two weeks.

In March we started university a week earlier than usual and didn’t have much work until April, when my sleepless life started. Since then, many things have happened, meet new people, musical shows, hang out with friends…


Any time I dedicate more time for friends and university and less for my family, I probably should mend fences.
