mi diario #3
(Si descubre algún error, ¡por favor dígame!)
Hoy me senté en la cama y pensé en la vida. En un tema bastante grande, aúnque con razón. Entre los pecados capitales, tengo los peores casos de envidia y avaricia. Lo pienso sinceramente. Creo en la despreocupación, y éstos no aumentan la tranquilidad.
Today I sat in the bed and thought about life. Rather a grand topic, although with reason. Among the (7) capital sins, I have the worst cases of envy and greed. That I sincerely think. I believe in calmness (of the mind), and those do not add to the tranquility (of the mind).
He pensado frecuentemente que había hallado el sentido de la vida. Reflexione en volverme una buena persona. Lo creí por un tiempo después lo olvidé. Me tomó un largo tiempo antes de recordarme la promesa previa. Estoy sumamente confundido y no me pongo a opinar de eso ya.
I have frecuently thought that I have found the meaning of life. I would reflect that I would change myself into a good person. I believe that for a while then I forget it. It takes a long time before I recall the previous promise. I am entirely confused by this and can not judge it further.
¿Qué es más importante? ¿Está la alegría sincera en las cosas exteriores, o está en lo que es interior? La respuesta es evidente. Pero en la realidad, es difícil a distinguir entre lo que se quieren de uno y lo que uno realmente quiere para sí.
What is most important? Is true joy in exterior things, or is it in that which is within? The answer is obvious. But in reality, it is hard to distinguish between that which is wanted of one and that which one really wants for oneself.
Me lo recuerdo siempre (lo que no ayuda mucho, pero debo intentarlo).
That I remind myself always (not that it helps much, but I must try).
Mis pensamientos están demasiado confundidos. No sé como seguir mi carta/redacción. Bien, escribiré más sobre otro tema en la mañana.
My thoughts are too confused. I do not know how to continue my writing. Okay, I will write more, moreover on another subject, tomorrow.
¡Gracias!:) Great!

On Last Sartuday, I was invited by my teacher to go to at school. He coocked/prepared mexican food and invited his students but only 3 came and some student's friends. the owners of the school were travelling. Then the teacher bought some rum to make mojitos and he prepared/made guacamole, chili and tortillas. I had never eaten mexican food and I liked to eat guacamole.
My friend got drunk with the rum and couldn't get up, I carried her to her home.
For the next party, the teacher said he is going to make a arabic food. I will go.:)

I am so sad about the young people that died yesterday in Santa Maria. It was really a tragedy. Now the owners of nightclubs will be punished, they will be the scapegoat. There are many irregular nightclubs, but unfortunately it happened there. The media are hyped and they are profiting with it. Here in Brazil, we are so sad and reflective. I hope that the families are well. God comfort them.
To whom don't know what I am talking about: In the early Saturday to Sunday, it happened a fire (There was a fire on Saturday night) in a nightclub here in Brazil, in Rio Grande do Sul - Santa Maria, a small city. Around 250 people died burned, the most of them were young students. This shocked the country and it was broadcasted in various canal of television channels around the world, like BBC and CNN. It was news in some newspapers like El país, The New York Times, Aljazeera and such as in some websites.Really sad, we should all get used to locate the emergency exits when we walk into a place and stay close to one.
0 votedJanuary 29, 20131- Por que estudo Português? Eu acho que as linguas são muito interesantes. Quando eu steve na universidade, eu tinha uma companheira que falaba português. Ella disse que a gramatica é quasi o mesmo que espanhol mais ela não falaba para me, eu não sei por que. O meu idioma nativo é espanhol, e o português tem muitas palavras iguais. Eu acho que o português tem um acento mais bonito que o espanhol. Eu compreendo muito, mais eu quase não posso escrever ou falar porque eu confundo as palavras com espanhol. Muito obrigada! Até mais! :)January 22, 2013120
Happy New Year!
Well,
This New Year's Eve was different for me. My family and I traveled to my grandmother's house in Paraná state. We received the new year there. It was so amazing! I hadn't seen my kin for a long time. I felt so nostalgic then! When the clock pointed at midnight, people started the fireworks!
The fireworks were so colorful and bright...That moment was so beautiful!
We wished each other a happy New Year and hugged...
I think it is so yummy (I recommend a different word such as nice or wonderful) to spend New Year's Eve with your family... (generally speaking or my family if it is specifically "your" family)
I feel peace in my soul!
That was the best thing in this new year! (suggestion):)

Hoy es el quinceavo día que he estado estudiando español. Yo escribí ésta nota primero en español y no en inglés. Yo quiero agradecer mi buena amiga Paula por la ayuda. Hasta luego.
I'm not sure if what you mean in the fist sentence is that it is the 15th day that you have been studying Spanish. If that the case, that's what I had in mind with the correction.
Saludos!
