A new experience!!!

Five years ago I had my first trip alone, with no mommy nor daddy!!!! oupii. I went to a international summer english camp for the whole summer in Canada.

I really enjoyed being there, it was something completely new for me. They are designed for young advanced english students and they envolve tons of activities like wild water rafting, safari adventure, maid of the mist, etc.

My school days were basically divided into 3 parts. In the morning I had my regular classes with my group, they arranged them by TOEFL scores, where we saw grammar and some other stuff depending on your level. The second part of the day was after luch and it was the writting workshop. There we had our blogs were we were supposed to writte our adventures of the week and our opinions. The third and best part of the day was after the second break when we went out of school or stayed in school depending in the installations that we would require to do the activities. In these part of the day we were divided by colors, these way we would meet everyone in school.

We also had some trips were we were also arranged by colors. We went to Toronto, Niagara Falls, Ottowa, Hull, Quebec and Niagara on the Lake.

I really enjoyed the camp because it was something completely new for me and I think I grew up a little bit more. My parents also say that these types of experiences are good for maturing, cause I am able to learn how to administrate my money and time by myself.

Having Fun

In the weekend our China final project team got together to finish the work. In a strange way, we had a lot of fun (or at least I did).

We were discussing a lot of articles on China saying things like "did you know that...." and thing like that. We were all in my dining room table, each with a laptop searching for information and doing work.

Of course there were some persons that occasionally went to Facebook to stalk other or that did other homework’s, but we managed to do a lot of the work. Another fun thing is that I made my guest (we were at my house) feel like we were in a starbucks.

I prepared some chocolate muffins and cappuccinos so that we had more energy and we just started discussing a lot of thing while drinking.


We did have our little problems, but nothing we couldn´t resolve. We are a very good team and we know how to resolve conflicts without making them bigger.

What I mean with all this is, I had fun doing this homework, I like knowing about other places and this project gave me the opportunity and the will to do so. You make things better if you like doing them.

"Semana Diabla"

What a good topic right? "semana diabla" … the best of the bests. We as adolescents LOOOOVE this week of the year! It is a week for us to behave badly. It is a week for having extreme fun with friends. It is a week for… disaster, deaths, accidents, misunderstandings… Everyone here know what am I talking about, don’t you? I know that this week is very funny, but we don’t know when something bad is going to happen to us or to someone near to us. I insist, we as adolescents don’t know how to measure danger. Visiting Kino Bay this week has turned out into a tradition year by year. Even though there have been lots of accidents, the young society continues visiting Kino Bay these days.
Visiting the beach in the “semana diabla” consists of lots of alcohol and drugs. Adolescents usually go to Kino Bay because they go without their parents, so they do whatever they please to do. They drink until they get to feel no pain. They not even get to sleep because they don’t want to lose any minute for drinking. This is the reason why things happen… Drunk and irresponsible adolescents are the culprits of the tragedies that occur during the week.

I’m not saying that every girl and boy who goes to the beach get drunk, but the majority does. I for example, I am going to Kino Bay, but I am going together with my friends, and my entire family. It is the first time in my life that I go to the beach this week. I cried my parents to give me permission to go, and they agreed, but they are going with me. I don’t see any problem with that, they are going to take care of me : )

I know that only YOU teacher read every blog post, but I really hope that some of my classmates get to read this and make conscience.

PLEASE take care. Have fun, but healthy fun... I love you all, and I’ll see you at Kino Bay!
