Blogging in FAU

It was my first experience with English in fau, if I’m honest, and I’m very glad I took the step to start participating in this last semester.

 I would say that I really enjoyed all the posts we’ve done trough the semester.

 It’s been a while since I could talk about myself; I have always lived my life to pass unnoticed to people, so it’s normal for me to think that nobody is actually interested in what I do. And don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I would have liked to have more interactions (I was actually surprised to have any to be honest haha) it was the fact that I could talk about anything that matters to me in the weekly posts that was kind of a path to self knowledge and actually made me realize I do things and I matter.

 Although I feel the same as Simon (our professor) because I enjoyed reading and writing all of the posts, I have to say that the topic of “A city you would like to visit” was my favorite because I was able to talk about architecture and remember why I also wanted to join this career years ago: I want to know the world. The post I didn’t enjoyed, seeing in retrospective, was “Something artistic I like doing”; not because I didn’t liked doing something artistic, but because of my way of talking back then; it was kind of superb and arrogant from my part. And even if it’s not really notorious, I can see changes in the way I think and talk now the semester is amost finishing. (I also write faster now haha)

 I don’t want to answer the question of “which of your classmate’s blogs you enjoyed reading” because it’s not fair for anyone, but I remember I always checked Viviana’s, Yessenia’s and Mateo’s blogs waiting for them to post their post when we met on classes and comment on their entries. There was sort of warm from their way of writing I feel, and when we worked together in the conversations during the first block it was easy for me to remember their names and blogs (I have a really bad memory remembering the name of people and relating it to their faces haha….. I’m sorry).

 I also enjoyed a lot reading the blogs of Simon (our professor)!  

 It was obvious that he have lived lots of experiences and reading each one of them was inspiring for me.

 Thank you everyone for sharing a part of your lives, it was a really nice experience.

 Regards!!

A friend

To talk about lasting friendship at our age is kind of hard to think for me right now. We are young, and most of my life I’ve lived far away from my friend’s houses, so it was hard to spend meaningful time with them out of high school. Now that I moved to the capital, it’s the inverse; I spend more time with friends, but less time with family. Ah, a never ending dilemma. So, if I’m going to talk about a friend I would like to talk about Vania. We’ve known each other since we were 14 years old (that’s about 8 years of friendship) and we have stayed in each other houses in different situations. For me, someone whose house has always been in other location, having someone who went to visit me and my family was very touching. We became friends, if I’m not wrong, because we used to take the bus together and we sit next to each other the first day of school, and she was new in the classroom.  Our tastes vary a lot from back then, but we’ve managed to spend time watching each other

A City You Would Like To Visit - Moscow

Image
One of the cities I certainly want to get to know is Moscow. Even when I’m highly eager to get to travel to Japan and live there for a couple months, I’m not interested to live in Russia, so if would go, I'll just go to know the places and the architecture. One thing that I learned after my scholarship abroad in Spain was to get lost in the city and prove all the meals you can, because, if you’re not gonna return soon to the city, or you’re planning to visit the city just once in your life, you have to live all the experiences you can while you’re there; that’s why most of the trips are really exhausting, but at the same time fulfilling to the soul. Of course, that means I have to earn a lot of money to get there and prove/taste all the things I can haha. But also, I like to draw some special scenarios I see. I’m practicing my watercolors skills to improve and actually it could take less time than I can right now to do a drawing of a building, an open space, a sunset that it

A family photograph

Image
This photo was taken one year and half ago. It was my first travel abroad, I earnt an international scholarship to Spain in 2015, and the travel was set for January 21th, 2016. We were in the International Airport. It was my first time, and, if I have to be honest, I cried a lot saying goodbye for such long time (6 months, wich, now in retrospective, doesn't seem that much) and being afraid that an accident might happen in the flight and I end up dying in the middle of the sea. From left to right, my grandma is the little old lady. I'm in the middle, the tallest one in the family. Then, there's my little sister, who's being held by the shoulders by my mother, the last one. This is actually one of the few photos we have, the four of us together. We don't take that much pictures, as groups, if I'm honest. It's probably in this situations, where something important happen, that we dare to took a photography. Realizing this. I guess I will talk to this
