I remember that...

Hello everyone this time I am here to talk you about something really crazy and cool that happens to every person in the world...Flashbacks. This happens when something or someone reminds you a moment that you already lived in your past and those things that make you remember them are the most remarkable in your life, that is why you have something to make those memories come back.
I am going to tell you a little tail that will make this be more easy to understand....

The first syntom is losting the memorie but I can still remember, I have just 5 minutes but I am completely sure that I will survive because I still remember. This house reminds me the children, when the they use to play around the house, everytime that I yelled at them because of their mess, but that doesn't even matter anymore, they are dead, but I can still remember them that is a good sign I guess.
Smells awful that should be the blood of the infected ones,I would like to Have one of those coffes that she used to prepare me at tuesday's afternoon I can even remember how it tastes. I have so many doubts and I have just 2 minutes left, but I still remember, I think I am safe.
(2 minutes later) I can hear how they are coming for me, I am scared, nothing but eight bullets against forty and even more. After they come in there will be nothing but a gun with seven bullets,a bed full of blood and a man who couldn't stand this madness.

-Hope you enjoy it guys.

Here is my question:
 How do you bring back those memories you have ?

STORY TIME !

When I was a kid my parents used to scratch the nose and leave me alone at home because they said that I was old and strong enough to take care of myself, to prepare my food and even brushing my teeth, sounds really dumb but holding the knife is not easy for someone who hates to be clean. I am such a mess and I admit it and I think that is why I can see things that no one else can can do. I don't know if I am crazy but once I saw a couple giving monsters to each other next to the umbrella of my parents room, none of them had a face, but I was a kid those kind of things didn't worry me. But now I realize that those kind of things happen to me because my parents  were not there when I needed them, is all their fault nowadays I can't even house when I zoo to their faces that actually doesn't exist for me anymore.

Yes peole, I create the story that you just read, and I know you should be asking why there are some words that have no sense, but actually they do and is because they have other meaning. The condition for making  this story was that we have to use some words with other meaning, in my case those words were:
-go on vacations= scratch the nose
-toothbrush= knife
-kisses= monsters
-window= umbrella
-smile= house
-look= zoo

I hope you enjoy my story and now that yoy understand it let me know what you think about it...

Co-writing

hello everybody here I am once again to talk you about the experience of co-writing, something that should be really worked by all the schools and you will know why...But this is just my opinion you tell me if is true, stupid, important whatever. We were doing something really cool, writing a kind of story but all that thing began with a question (a really weird one) that will make us answer things in relation with it, but obviously all the answers were completely different and really crazy because the words that we use to create that story are a little unconventional....for example words like: Lamp, tree, snake, dumb and even more, but you tell me how can a story be something serious with those words ?. Other really nice thing about this was that every person wrotethe things that they were comfortable for continue the story or making it something funny, because doing this exercise we did have fun but despite having fun and all that that I mentioned we tried to make it coherent as possible making this story something that you can read, understand and enjoy.
Here is a little part of my story:

....but I don't know if you are able to go to the tree and find the answer without losing the bet and I want you to do it for me and you know that if they are together nothing can stop them. I will go to that tree I need to know the truth and I will fight that dog...

As you can see, is pretty crazy but really funny...see you until the next one.

Not too fast, Questions...

Is it good to write with someone else? why ?

Why people decide to write with others ?

Colombia very well

hello everybody(sorry for being late) in this post I want to tell you about a new programm that you maybe don't even know and you would like to... I am talking about Colombia ver well. This is a proposal from the president Juan Manuel Santos  that as I already told you is something new and He wants to take this big project until 2025 where he thinks is the "limit" for students to improve their english. The president wants all the students to be bilingual or maybe reach a level where you can understand the english, because here in Colombia this language have turned into something really important, even to work is like a requirement(some places).

Nowadays the english(here in colombia) for teenagers or adults became in something really necessary because of the things that they want to study or what they are working on. Most of the time you want a job who requires the english language or maybe study/work in other country but most of the people do those things knowing nothing of english, so that is one of the reasons why this project needs to make colombians improve their english level. That is a big opportunity that maybe can make a difference in your life and obviously will make you grow talking about language, so take advantage of this kind of things is what can give you more opportunities.

Questions....

Do you feel comfortable with this program ? why ?

What is missing or what they should delete from this program ?

Grammar

If we can write, speak, read and communicate with the others  eloquently is because of the grammar and most of the times we do not pay attention to how important it is of being careful with the uses we give to our language, because day by day we are falling in the same mistake of talk or write how we want to just because is easier. when we make thosse kind of mistakes we do not now how much damage we are doing to the language and we are going so far with this that there are even some words in english or spanish and even other languages that were forgotten and we do not even now that.
Is a matter of persistence with the people, the most we use the language how we have to the most the people will use it that way. Social media is really affecting grammar, because there people can write or express themselves as they want to because there is no rules, but is not social media's fault everything begins in yourself.
We use to change the words and sometimes cut some letters and children who are just learning how to speak, think that the correct way to say it is the wrong one, so that is why we should take care of our language with so much effort, because maybe in a few years later if we still doing this what we know as language will be completely changed.

Questions....

How can people improve grammar ?

Are we doing a good job with our language as teachers ?

Idioms

Idioms is the best way to know other cultures and personalities. When you use them you are making reference to the place where you come from, because you are talking as your people do; that's why Idioms in every part of the world are unique, not everyone will understand what you are reffering to. Some people use Idioms with other purposes, for example as a code to communicate with others, is like creating another language where just two people understand what they are talking, but others use them to make fun of the people who don't understand. In english and spanish exist a lot of idioms that we can give a lot of meanings, but those idioms only have one definition, down here I am going to write some Idioms in english for you as an example....


- All that glitters is not gold =  No todo lo que brilla es oro
Not everything is how it looks like

-It's not my cup of tea = No es lo mio
That is not my bussines / Is not my problem

-To beat around (about)  the bush = Andarse con rodeos
When you talk to much and you don't go to the point

-A chip off the old block = De tal palo tal astilla
When you are exactly the same as someone else

-To kick the bucket = Estirar la pata
When you are really tired or when someone dies

Questions....

Why people use idioms in their language ?

Is correct to express with idioms ? Why ?

A teacher or maybe a... ?

You should be wondering about the title and the answer is in my friend who I interviewed. Mariana use to study our career, actually she just studied one semester but she regret because being a language teacher did not fullfill her expectations. She loves languages, but she said that in our career what you see the most is the Pedagogy and both languages are not so demanding as they will have to be.

I asked her if she would like to teach literature someday here in Colombia and she said no, because here we are mired in terms of education and if we want to evolve we would have to make a big effort to change. Other of the reasons why she would like to work out of here, is because she thinks that english is a big tool for what she's going to work on. I asked if she would like to work as a teacher who teaches Literature but she's not sure about that, "Could be a posibility, I shall think it" Said mariana. 

Mariana considers that being a teacher is something quite difficult because you have to deal with the knowledge of many people, and in your hands is their learning and you´re the one who decides to change it...that's her main doubt about being a teacher, but she thinks that at least she could try it.

Time for you to answer...

1. Does the government give more importance to pedagogy than languages ? why ?

2. Is difficult to teach under Colombian rules or statements ? why ?

3. Do you consider that our career focus more in pedagogy than languages
