- México Well, it's been a very long time since I wrote something here and i'm happy to be back. It took me quite a lot to decide that but I wanted to practice again my English. So I come here today to ask you guys about your opinion of Mexico because i've been talking to many people from different countries and I'm curious about it, also, I'd like to tell you more about my culture, like something about the History or the leyends, the art and the food that we cook. So, it would be nice to know how do people think about my country. In the mean time i'm going to talk about a mexican leyend, it's about the origin of the volcano and the mountain "Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl" that are currently at the valley of Mexico. There are many versions of the story but the one that I like the most is this: A long time ago, when the aztecs were still here and people still believed in different gods, there was a princess that fell so in love with a warrior that decided to marry him, his name was Popocatépetl and her name was of course, Iztaccíhuatl but there was a huge problem. Her father didn't agree with that marriage, he thought that she should marry another powerful man but she didn't even think about it, she loved Popocatépetl. So in order to stop her, he said that if she wanted his blessing, as a warrior, her lover must had to defeat a rival village and bring a proof of his victory. With that on his mind, the warrior left the town and traveled straight to the war. He had to fight for days and nights so that he could marry the love of his life. Back in their place, the princess was faithful and waited for him but saddly, a warrior of their people brought very bad news. He said that Popocatépetl died in battle, that he was not coming back and that broke the heart of Iztaccíhuatl, causing her to fall in a very deep sleep due to her sadness. The days passed and the princess never woke up, until one day a man came looking for her, it was her lover, that got very injured during the combat but he was ready now to marry her. Everyone told him about the sad events and how she wouldn't wake up, so with his heart broken and the body of Iztaccíhuatl, he traveled to the top of a mountain to bury her and sweared to always look after her. The gods moved by that huge love, decided to give them the gift of eternity and with that, they turned them into what we know as the volcano and the mountain of the valley, which have the shape of a man kneeling and a sleeping woman
August 21, 201621 - Photography Hi. Well, I wanted to show you a picture of the sky that you can see from my house, also, I was wondering if I have the skills to be a photographer. This picture I took it with a camera that my mom gave me as a gift long time ago. I hope you like it, it might not be the best picture ever, but I feel that is a good one. I'm not a professional, I'm just a girl that enjoys looking the nature and all the beautiful sceneries. Thank you :)
October 25, 201331 - Ghost Story Hi!, It's been a while since I wrote something here, but I wanted to tell you something good that happened in my school. In my English class, the teacher told us that we needed to make teams because we were supposed to write a ghost story. So, my friends and I started to think about a topic that was interesting for our story; At the end, we decided to make it about a girl and her boyfriend that moved to another town and their house was involved in a tragedy that happened a year before. Anyway, when my teacher read our story, she told me that I was a psycho but in a good way( I still don't understand how someone could be a good psycho) because she thought that a good writer should be a bit crazy to make good stories, well, she finally told me that she loved my story and that she thinks that in the future I will be a writer. To tell you the truth, I felt really happy because that was my first time writing a story in English. Thank you! :)October 13, 201360
- Improve my skills in English I feel really happy. Why?, well, it's because I think that being here helped me to improve my English, even if it was just a little bit . I realized that yesterday, when i went to see a movie at the cinema, I understood most of the movie, yeah, the movie had subtitles but i tried to not read them. The movie was about a couple of friends that lose their jobs, so, one night, one of them finds that google is looking for new workers and they decide to go and see if they could get a job in there. I really liked it,It made me think about the daily effort that we make to get our dreams. But i have to be honest, the movie was really funny too, it happens a lot of things and the actors were really good. Thank you! :)September 24, 201361
