The New Year Cabals

Hi everybody

Today I going to talk about new year. The new year it's really close so I want to dedicate this blog to my experiences with the cabals in new year. I came from a family that have many traditions for the new year. Since I was a little kid my mom and my aunts made different cabals for call to the good things in the new year. So here is a list with some of they.

1- Eat a spoon full of lentils. You have to it lentils just cooked without dressing. My aunts always make me eat this. It's so disgusting, but they believe that if you eat lentils you never lack anything.

2- Dress a yellow under wear. Since I'm a little kid my aunts always make me use a yellow underwear that they give to me. This cabal i'ts for you have energy during the all year.

3- Put some piece of gold (rings of something like that) in a glass of champagne. My aunts say that this is for have money in the all year.

4- The first gretting have to be for the someone of the opposite sex. My aunts wil never forget me getting they before a man do that. The believe that it's bad luck to hug to someone of the same sex.

5- Clean the house. This cabal it's for the bad things of the past year go away and could came the good things from the new year.

6- One of the most I like it's take a shower on the sea. It's for the bad energy go away from your body.

I don´t believe in all this, but in some way this are part of my family and I have affection for they.
I hope this year we are all together with my family and could do this cabals again.

Last Blog of the semester

Hi everybody

I start my English courses in the level two. Since the first class I learn so much about English. I thing that the most important thing that i learn in English was daring to talk. It was really difficult to me because I'm kind of shy and I believe that speaking it's one thing that don't use to teach at the school. My teachers (Belén, Álvaro y Neha) have been really good teacher. One of the thing that I consider important for a teacher it's that can make a pleasant place where the student can performance comfortably and I think that they did it.

I thing that for make better and more successful the classes, English school should change the schedules because, for example, this semester we over the classes at 7:30 pm and we are really tired. In my opinion the willingness of the students will be better if we are more rest. 

Nowadays the english it's increased used in my classes. This semester I had to read a lot of papers in english, I believe that the courses of english are really handy for the student. Also I believe that english it's really important for the life. You never know if some day you will need it.

Personally I love the languages and I would like learn many more. It's a way to know other cultures and It's impressive how the human being has been able to make different ways to communicate. 

I'm really happy for all what I learn in english and I hope that take other courses of language be so easy like take English.
