Today is my last blog; I should to write about if I enjoy it and if this activity helps me to improve mi English. I don’t know that in the next semester, I will have to write in a blog again, I hope that no!
Really, I thing that this activity is very good, because I felt motivate to think in English, and look for tools to express my ideas in English. I didn´t enjoy of all write a blog, because I don´t like write, generally I prefer talk and I felt many times that I write only to fulfill, but I didn’t fell up to write. Although, had some times that I wrote very happy because it wrote about things that are interesting for me, as my cat or mi favorite team in the FIFA world cup.
Honestly, one thing that I didn’t enjoy was to have to do the comments to my partners, because I felt obliged to read the first post that appear, only to complete the activity, when I’m not interest in read theirs blogs.
In general, I have improved my English whit each blog that I have written, because I have increased my vocabulary. I think that is a good tool to learn this language that is very complicate for me.
The advantages, in my opinion are several:
· We think in English.
· We improve our redaction in English.
· We can say things about ourselves.
· We go out the routine class.
The disadvantages, in my opinion are only one: We don’t receive a feedback, but I understand that the teacher is only one, and we are twenty, and this isn’t the only group for the teacher.
The next week, we have the final written test and I will have to finish English 3…

Misha y Ronnie
This picture is really great for me. I took it last year in a day that I didn’t have anything to do, because I was on summer holiday. You can see Misha, mi beautiful cat and Ronnie, my little and loving mouse. They are my pets, and both are very happy.
Ronnie live in a cage but sometimes I take out him, he is very quite. His cage hardly ever is close because he gets out alone and he stays on top cage. I close his cage when there’s nobody at home because he get out and Misha pushes him to the floor, when we are at home she doesn’t it.
Misha is my cat, she isn’t lovely, but I love her so much. When Ronnie arrives home, she was very surprised because she had never seen a mouse, and contrary to what one might think she don’t want eat him. The cats don’t eat mouse, only hunt it to play at least that they have hungry. Misha wants to play whit Ronnie yet, but she is very big comparing whit him. She weighs five kilograms and he only five hundred grams, and she is very abrupt to play too.
When they are together, as in the picture, I should to watch them. She can pushes him and he can bite her, I don’t want that anyone end up injured.
I like this picture because show that two animals, that the people think that don’t can to be together because are “rivals”, there are together and happy when there are people that don’t can stay together neither in a picture. I think that this picture is a great example for us the human.

Italy, the champion again!
My favorite team is Italy, since world cup France ’98 I don´t know why exactly, but I like so much the Italian language and the Italians men.
The last world cup I saw every game, including the final game when Italy won the cup. I enjoy very much when they play, I don’t matter if I’m alone or in group.
In France ’98 I woke up in the might night because the games were at 2 or 3 of morning, and I saw every game too, until Korea defeat Italy 1-0 in the third round. I still remember this sad night.
This year, I don’t believe that really they win again because the best Italian players in the last world cup as Totti, Nesta, Inzagui, Del Piero, Toni and Maldini don’t playing now and the best goalkeeper, Buffon and a midfield player Pirlo are injured. I hope that they get better soon.
Anyway I support the Italian team meanwhile they are in the world cup. The only play that they have played this year finished equalize, this day was raining too much and the field was very slippery. This game was good but the field conditions weren’t good. The next game, Italy playing better I’m sure :)

Three Years in Chile
Tomorrow I’ll commemorate three years here. In this time I have done many things, the most important was to start the university again.
When I arrived, I worked in a shop as a saleswoman, this was my first job. Soon after, in December, I presented the P.S.U and I had studied Chile’s history all in only twenty six days!! It was incredible! That year my mom came to visit me, and helped me to study. By the end of the year, we went to Valparaiso to see the fireworks, that was amazing, very beautiful.
She went back to Venezuela in January, and I worked in the same shop in summer. My mom came again in May with my grandmother, I had started the university, but in a weekend we went to Viña del Mar, to know this city.
This year, I traveled to Venezuela in December. We didn’t like the celebrations here, are very boring. I came back in February and didn’t see my family until December, when I traveled again, and come back in February, 3th to wait the earthquake.
This year my mom wanted come back again in July but the air ticket is very expensive, and she doesn’t like the cold. Well, I have to wait for December again to travel to my country.
These years have been very interesting, I love and miss my country so much, but this country is a good place to live.

Personal Relieve
Today I would write about anything but I couldn't think in something because I don’t feel good, I’ve had a not very good day. Write about this and like this I could relieve.
In the university we are very much thing to do and I feel that I don’t have time to do all. Sometimes like this I miss very much my family above all I miss my mom because she always helps me in all.
I don’t like cold neither the cloudy days. I need the sun, as Superman, for recharge my energy.
I ‘m generally a happy person and I like to joke whit my university partners, listen to music almost all day, I enjoy whit nature around me although I don’t stay contemplate it. But today I only want sleep until the sun comes back.
I need my friends, they, in days like this, give me a hug.
I want to go out Santiago, I feel asphyxiate here. I want go to the beach only to see the beach because the water here is very cold to swim. There is other that I miss, my beach, my warm and relaxing beach.
Tomorrow will be other day, and I hope that I could feel good again.

My love: the Cats...
The cats are very interesting animals. I couldn’t live without cats, I need them.
I life whit them since I’m 7 years old because my mom wanted a cat - only one- because in my house was mice. In this opportunity we believed that the cat was male, but it was female and it had 5 kittens. When they grew up we love so much at all of them and they stayed in my house.
Since then in my house had been more than 60 cats and everyone have been very special.
Now, I have only one cat because here I don’t have my own house, her name is Misha. She isn’t loving, but I love her equally. I found her abandoned in the street when she was 2 months old.
I work as a voluntary in the SOS Gatitos Chile, a organization pro-cats. This 15th and 16th may we’ll do the 1st operative of sterilization’s cats. This is a very satisfactory for me.
