Last Entry Well I already corrected all the mistakes my professor asked me to do, and after doing this I realized that this course was very helpful, even though some topics where kind of difficult to understand most of them got "easier" when we put them into practice. And as a personal opinion I understood them even better when I wrote them here in the blog, once you start to read them in context you get them quickly. Sometimes the way they were explained in class was totally different as the way you saw them in quizzes, but even so, the course was very enriching and I learned lots of new structures. Thank you!

Entry #5

Entry #5 It was Sunday, and I was having a cup of tea like every single day, after the break , I decided to take a nap, but the thoughts of guilt were there every time I wanted to rest, so, once again, I couldn’t.   Because of what I did 4 days ago I could not not sleep, but I know that nobody will know about my secret, or at least that’s what I thought that night. One night while everything was quiet , someone started to knock on the door desperately, although I did not know who was behind that door, I felt serene because I had my secret protected. So, I opened the door, and two policemen were just there with a search warrant, and just behind them there was a big dog, “ if the dog was there to examine the house I’m done ” I thought, and so it was, the room where my secret was “kept”, was locked with a very large padlock, but not even the padlock stopped that smell that the dog detected immediately, everything happened in less than 5 min, when they found it, I had k...

Entry #4

Entry #5     What happened to me was definitely one of the worst situations that I have lived. It was last year when  I was working in a shoe store, it was a normal day as every single day, I was about to take a lunch break when an older woman came into the store, I didn’t know if she had a problem with one of my coworkers , but since she entered she started to talk to me an impolite way, I didn’t know what was going on, the first thing that I thought was that the lady was confusing me, so it was. Suddenly I remembered that my partner Ella had told me days ago something about a client, so this lady, she was the woman who Ella talked about. At that moment I didn’t know what to do , it seemed to me that she was so rude , she was saying whatever it came to her mind , I tried to explain to her that I wasn’t the person she was looking   for, but she was pushing and saying: “ I know the lady whose customer service was the worst and that was you ”…This girl was t...

Entry #3

The word that I use the most I think is “actually”, it’s a very common word used by many people,   sometimes I say it unconsciously, I think that I used it with all people around, friends, family, unknown people, and not also in English but also in Spanish, so maybe that’s why I say it too many times. There is not an “specific” moment in which I use it, I just do it, and actually I like to say it!  Venice, Italy A city that I would like to visit would be Venice, Italy. Venice is one of the most beautiful places in Italy, people call Venice awesome , (N1 V N2 Adj)   it is well-known for its 455 bridges, this characteristic is what I like the most, moreover Venice looks wonderful   ( N LV Adj ) in every single picture I’ve seen. People describe the city to everyone    (N1 V N2 to/for N3)  as the most interesting city in the worl . This amazing city is perfect to go with friends, family and even with your couple, I would like to have the opport...

Entry #2

The worst walk So, it is about a story that happened to me some days ago, I’ve a dog, her name is Molly, she is a german shepherd, she is 4 months, but that age is enough to be a complete disaster. Since the very beginning,  nobody in my family agreed to have that kind of dog,  for the bunch of problems that they cause. My father made me buy her food, her leash, and all the supplements that Molly would need, he let me keep her as long as I look after her. So, it was a Sunday afternoon that I took Molly for her first walk in town, she was full of beans and extremely happy. Something that worried me that day was that someone had told me that the first time you took a german shepherd out you had to be very careful since they are very playful with people, and that often the way they play can be aggressive, but since I was in love of Molly I did not think this was like that. While we were walking, Molly had her gaze on everything, on everybody ,   but suddenly...

Grammar Vl

In this grammar course I've been learning different structures, some of them (for me) have been kind of difficult such as Morphology, Syntax, Parallel Structures,  some of them have precise details that can not be forgotten. Nevertheless when we put them into a practice it becomes easier to learn them. Practicing is how I really expect to learn them, for some of my classmates it would be different, but at least for me is the way that I like. Sometimes it gets tired because we have to learn two structures at the same day and the two of them have very similar details so it makes it difficult. Something very important to point out is the quizzes we make, I consider that they are very  helpful at some point, they are the only way to put into a practice the structures. I hope to learn them the all of them, I'm scared about the tests, because I know that they will be overloaded, but at the end my goal would be not only pass the course but also learn each one of the structure...
