I was sick

       Two weeks ago, I was sick, I had a sore throat, fever and flu. The winter in Calgary is very cold for me and for this I was sick.  When i feel sick I need go to the doctor because I'm allergic to penisillin  and I don't take anything medice. In Calgary I bought a tylenol for flu, sore troat and fever but this medice is very slow and I was sick one week a half. Also, I drink a lot of water and my mom homestay cooked chicken and beef soup to me and I ate these. Now I'm feel better and I don't want to feel again. On the other hand, in my country when the people feel sick, they take a honey for sore throat and put vicks in their noise and shest when them have congestion in that. Finally, I think is better go to the doctor because he or she knows what is the good medicine to each patient.

Notting Hill

The "Notting Hill" was my first book in English  I read. I'm very happy because I thought was very difficult for me read in English but now I know is easy. My opinion of the book is it has easy vocabulary and explain very well the situacion, it's funny and I enjoy when I read this book. This book has some words I did't know the meaning but in the general I understoond the story. My favorite characters was Spike because he is so funny when he appeared on stage and he was lazy and crazy and that made me enjoy reading. I like everything, it is a new experiece for me read in other language and this book is excelent, maybe we may read two books during the course: I think it is a good idea. Finally I recommend this book to student of nivel 1 and 2 of de ESL Program because it is a good and easy book but I think for the level 3 and high it is very easy and they need other book. 

Car is the best

My favorite way to travel is in car because with this trasportation you can meet many places when you driver to any destination. I think the advantages for the car such as don´t need a lot of money to travel, don´t depend the other people or company, you have your time; but the disadvantages are that more tired than other trasportation and it is slower. Last weekend I traveled by car to Fort Mcmurray to find northern lights. That trip was the best of my life because I had fun, we get stuck in the winter road for 7 hours with just cook and chips(lol) and we called 911 for help.They rescued us and it was exciting and amazing. 

Summer is better!

I´m worried because I don´t like winter. In Calgary the winter is very different than Mexico because here it is colder than my city, in Calgary snow and Monterrey not. But for me is a new experience this weather. My plan to do in Calgary during the winter is ski and take a lot of picture (lol)because I never saw the snow and I don´t know if in the future I have an opportunity to travel again. My favorite season of the year is summer because I like go to the beach and the clothes is more comfortable than other season. In the summer I have vacation in my university and job, I will visit my family and travel with my friends, I have a lot of time for rest. In addition I like this season because it is easier than other for do many activities outside, for example: play football with my cousins, walk on the park with my mother and grandmother, etc. Finally this season is better for me, but I know many people don´t like it because is very hot.

Calgary is a safe city

For me Calgary is a safe city because the goverment is good and the laws are aplicated to the society; it is important for a city is safe because maybe a city  have good laws but they aren´t applied as it is in my city.

Is imposible  a city is perfect because in everywhere are many crazy people who  commints crime, but Goverment of Calgary have a control in this situation. I  think in Calgary the typical crime that people commen are: theft, extortion, sexual assault and murder. These crimes are dangerous but they are punished by the authority and it is good for the city. Calgary is safer than Monterrey because now we have a problem with our goverment (is bad and corrupt) and drug trafficking. Finally I do to protect myself don´t go out at night alone, don´t bring a lot of money in my purse, if I see any crime call with the police and respect to the laws. 

My favorite holiday is Christmas because my entire family visits to my grandmother and have dinner with her, but I think this holiday is similar in several countries, for that reason I write of a typical holiday in Mexico. The typical holiday celebrated in Mexico is the day of the dead (El Día de los Muertos). The holiday focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died.  According to the belief of the ancient Mexican civilization, when the individual dies his spirit continues to live up to the day, designated by custom, in returning to their former homes to visit relatives. We must delight and leave satisfied with everything that is his greatest pleasure and astonishment: the food. The celebration occurs on the 2nd of November, in connection with the Catholic holy days of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day. Traditions include building private altars honoring the deceased, using sugar skulls, marigolds, and the favorite foods and beverages of the departed, and visiting with these serious as gifts. In the schools the student built altars to honor a person of their choice (famous person), and each student will research what food he or she liked and brought to the altar. This is a typical holiday in Mexico and is very different than other holidays!

Hello Everybody, I want money and if I won 10 million in the lottery, I would pay all debts of my parents and my brother to don´t have more concerns. After that, I would help to my parents to finish furnishig the house. I will pay my career and carer's my brother.

I would buy the next car:

Finally after doing all that, I  would open an investment account with the money and in the future to do good business with that money. I would don´t buy many things becausa for mi is better to invest the money and multiply for the future when I have a family or have problems.
