Winter *-*

What I love the most about this season is the fact that because of the cold weather you can be on your bed the whole day and no one will say a word about it, or call you lazy; I love that you need a lot of hugs to warm up, and the thing that makes it better than the rest of the seasons, specially  better than summer for example, is that if you get cold you can use something thicker or drink a coffee and that’s it, you’ll be warm for a while, whereas in summer if you get heat, you can take all your clothe away and you will feel the heat anyways, it’s frustrating specially if you don’t have a pool or if you are not on your vacation on the  beach or something like that.



I love what comes with cold weather, which is rain and snow *-* … I love to hear the rain falling outside my house, or the smell of the air after a rainy day, it’s just the best smell ever *-*. Normally on this wonderful season, I stay all day on my bed or drinking hot chocolate and resting a lot, it's like if I begin to hibernate, I became a bear *-*.

Stupid hair 88

Usually, when we are little, our mother’s decide which type of hairstyle we well have… normally, is what they want, and what they would like to have (the most horrible in the whole world).

When I was a child, my mom used to take me to the hairdresser and picked the hairstyle she wanted (as I said before, the most horrible one); normally it was very short and it had a fringe, it was definitely hideous. I remember that my older brother and sister, used to laugh at me, because my hair was short and horrible and theirs were long and beautiful (?), yeah, right. D:

Nowadays, I’d love to say that everything is different, that when I go to the hairdresser I got what I want, but no! u.u … I keep choosing hairstyles which I don’t like, I don’t know why but I think I need more styles to finally decide which one I’d love and use for a very long time…  But hey! There is something really good about all this, my hair (at least the color of it) is beautiful, and I can always iron it and it would look better, no matter the hairstyle I choose. Yay! (=

Summary: Foreign languages to be taught at school...

This article is about the changes in the curriculums in some schools, it emphasizes that foreign language should be taught at age of seven in schools, introducing a “compulsory” language teaching.

The idea of this plan is to teach students more than one language, and it can include Mandarin, Latin and Greek; this is to help students to improve their language, and also to help them to make complete sentences and to produce better sounds at the time of speaking; all this is related to the necessity that we are having for the development on the communication around the world, we are more connected than we used to be some time ago. Also, it talks about changing the programs of some other areas such as Sciences, English and Math’s.

The project is very ambitious, because the reformed curriculum will make students to learn things from a very young age and to develop faster their skills, for example, they want that by the end of year 4, children should be listening and discussing things such as fiction and nonfiction topics.

Some people gave their opinion about the whole idea of changing the curriculum and teaching foreign languages at age of seven, they all agree with this notion, they thought that it was a marvelous idea and some of them even said that foreign language should be taught at an earlier age, not at the age of seven, like it is establish already.

This whole plan of reform the curriculum should be done and introduced in schools on September 2014.

Sailor Moon *-*

I started to watch cartoons from very young, because of my brother and sister, they were older than me so, I never could decide what to watch… I have to like what they were watching, it was ok though, there were fun cartoons.

I remember a lot of cartoons that I watched years ago, and the one I liked the most and I still do was the Sailor Moon. My sister and I (I remember that even my brother watched it xd) used to watch it every day, without missing an episode, it was pretty fun as far as I can remember (honestly I can´t remember much, I was too young xd)

I liked that cartoon because of the love story of Serena and Darien (Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask *-*) and obviously because of the Sailors who fight for the love and justice. I also liked it because I used to think that I was Serena Tsukino, we were just the same, distracted and lazy, very lazy xd.

Some months ago, on a Chilean Tv show called 'Etc tv', the cartoon was released again, I was so happy that when I realize it I started to watch the episodes all over again and look for the scenes I liked the most on internet, and the truth is that I still like Sailor Moon, It is so much fun and I laugh every time I watch it.
