    The people that inspire me In the world, there are some people who have special gifts. Those people are not a superhero or a famous celebrity. But they are the most important person in our lives. However, what make this person so special? Usually, they are an example of life because they are inspiring other people. I found three people that made me a better person. My great-grandmother, came from Poland to Brazil, running away to The first war. She and her family arrived in Brazil without to speak anything of Portuguese, they don't had home or job. Even so, they risked everything to stay alive and stay safe. The second person who changes my life is my aunt Laura. She never gave up to fight against cancer. She was a great woman who grew up in a little city, teaching children and helping others women. When she discovered her disease, she wanted to go on and fight even without enough resources. And she has won. She lived until 90 years old and died sleeping in peace. One more person that inspire me is my seven years old daughter. Because of her I'm trying to be a better person. I'm her example, that is why I always try to be kind, gentle and thankful to her and the others. Besides, we work together to change the world a better place to live, taking care of the environment, respecting the animals and helping who needs. Everybody can be an inspiration to the others. It is not necessary to do great things or make wonderful machines. Neither be a superhero or a celebrity. You just can be a singular person. But for someone, you are the most important person in the world, just for your story or your pleasure for life and for the love that you inspire in someone.

    Sábado

    A mesma coisa acontece todos os dias.
    As manhãs de inverno são frias no Canadá.
    O município onde eu cresci, mudou há mudado ao longo dos anos.
    O vaso marreco (I did not understand. The flower vase is in the form of a mallard?), If it is better to say: O vaso com a forma de marreco  tem 10 flores. Cinco são brancas, e cinco são rosas rosadas. ( Rosadas is not a common word, but is not completely wrong.)
    Gosto de gerânios. São bonitos e resistentes.
    Esta tarde tivemos uma tempestade. Estava perfeito perfecto para as flores, foi um dia quente.

    How come the brain of a bilingual person? According to Judith Kroll, a psychologist that studies bilingualism, a bilingual person sometimes forgot words in your native language because the two languages sometimes converge and, also they compete. Our brain needs an actively choose a second language every time then I say a word or phase. Even after years and years speaking a second language every day it's tiring and be a relief speaking our native language. In fact, Kroll says that our native language may take a hit during second language learning, but this is crucial for the process to learning. The learner who are able to take a hit on own native language may be better able to learn the second language. Every time that you choose a word on your native language over in a second language or vice versa, your brain gets a little stranger. Any bilingual person doesn't bother making a choice, and they often mix the language together saying things like "I wanted to enjoy the holiday, e viajar um pouco". This is a normal and typical behavior part of a bilingual experience. As a result, bilingual people still choose between languages, but they not making the same choose every time. Because they don't have two monolingual minds operating separately in on head, they have on the bilingual brain.
