Films can tell us a lot about the country where they were made. What have you learned about a country from watching its movies? Use specific examples and details to support your response.

            Movies can tell about what countries are like country and the culture of this country. In some movies you can learn about history.  I love comedy movies and this is not a good type of movie that you can learn about the culture or the history of a country. One movie that I liked was not a comedy that told about is history. These are 2 different movies “The Phantom of the Opera” another that I saw “the Patriot”.

 “The Phantom of the Opera” takes place in Paris in XIX and I could see in this film what people wore. The people wore a very reword dress.  The dresses were very long and I think very heavy too. How they look because the people in this era were different than us. For example the hair was very well groomed. The buildings were old and grey color. The people rode by horses and carts with horses.

             The second movie was “the Patriot. It is about the history of United States at the time when the British wanted to conquer the west part of America. This movie I liked it because I could imagine the life and the fear of the people in a war. When I first saw the movie I thought that it was very boring. One day my father took to see Charlestown. When I was in the city of Charlestown I realized how life was and how they lived.

            Movies are good for entertainment and to learn things about the country that it is in filmed in. I think that movies can teach you a lot of things about the country. After you see the movie, you can learn more traveling to the places where by the movie has taken place.

Some high schools require all students to wear school uniforms. Other high schools permit students to decide what to wear to school. Which of these two school policies do you think is better? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

                                              

            Some of schools require students to wear school uniforms and other high schools do not. Usually the students that wear uniforms are in private high school although students in a public school can wear uniforms too. I think this is a good idea because all the student can feel that have the same rights as other people.

            I think uniforms in school are a very good idea because all people feel equal. No one would be envious and jealous of other people wearing nice clothes. For example, I used to live in Spain. My school was private but we didn’t wear uniform. In my school I could see that people would want to know people for how they looked. If a boy wore nice shoes and a nice jacket, the “popular people “meet him but if a boy wore black clothes this boy would be considered a weird boy. The uniform allows people to be judged for their personality.

            These days I think that schools with no uniforms have a big problem what students people wear. Sometimes for example boys wear their trousers below their waist or the girls wear provocative clothing I think these problems can end by putting in all the schools the uniform. I know that is difficult because some people would not requiring student to wear. The uniforms can be very expensive. My school is Newton South High School is a big school and I don’t think that the uniform would work.

            Also I think that for students. It is a good idea although they think that is not. I personally am tired waking up in the morning, then I have to think about can I wear. If you wear a uniform you don’t have to worry about what you have to wear the next day. It is always the same.

            Uniforms are a good thing for society and for the school. Uniforms are comfortable for everyone. People would be able to meet people that they might not have gotten to know simply due to what they wear.      

Some people say that advertising encourages us to buy things we really do not need. Others say that advertisements tell us about new products that may improve our lives. Which viewpoint do you agree with?

        We spend so much time watching or reading advertising that we do not even need. Experts believe that the amount time of advertisement should be controlled in some ways otherwise the people's income spends on equipment that they do not need. I think also that the advertising it is very important for many things.

I very much disagree with the statement on TV always trying to sell you a lot of things that you think that this thing is useful but when you carry it it’s not useful. For example when I am watching criminal mind and the TV show goes to the commercial and most of them are selling product that are not useful. Yesterday I was watching commercial TV and the started. It was offering something to move furniture. I thought this stupid commercial because if it only cost 5 dollars it probably would not work after a few days.

Also the commercials are bad for the children. When they see TV a toy on that they like they want it, and many products are not of this products is not like the advertising says. The commercials confuse children and the children believe. My brother is a good example. He is obsessive about cars and he loves all kinds of cars. He saw on the TV a car track and he wanted it. He saved for it for 3 month. He went to the store and bought the car track. When he come home and started to play, he realized it was not the same to the advertising. He cried a lot. He learnt his lesson.

Advertising can be useful because if a new product goes on the market you can compare it to other products. You can also know that this product is new. I though advertising especially love the technology and specific the apple store I love when I saw the TV or the new and I saw that there is a new product of apple. I am always interested in seeing the new item on TV

Commercials always make you think about and to buying one day but have to realize that sometimes you can make bad decisions buying thing online and on the phone.

Some people trust their first impressions about a person's character because they believe these judgments are generally correct. Other people do not judge a person's character quickly because they believe first impressions are often wrong. Compare these two attitudes. Which attitude do you agree with? Support your choice with specific examples.

Each time we meet a new person, we make pre-judgments about them. These judgments can be true or false. There are a lot of people who believe that the first impression is always correct. Personally, through my experience I think that the first impression it is not always correct. There are a lot of factors that have an impact clarity. In other words our first impression is made under different conditions.

            One of the factors depends in which place you meet this person because it is not the same to meet a person at a party or at work. When you are at a party everybody tries to be friendly with everybody. For example if you meet a boy at a party, he can seem very friendly but when you hang out with him one day you can see that this person is very different that the boy that you met at the party. Another place that a person can be very different isat work. A person at work can be very unfriendly because he is focusing on his work. For example if you hang out with him one day he can be the best person in the world.

            I never judge a person by his experiences but my father does. I had a lot of discussions with my father about this. My father is always judging people and says bad things about them and this make me very angry. For example, if a boy wear a hat this person cannot be a good person. Two years ago I went to a summer camp in Santander, Spain.  I made a lot of friends and one of them was black. This boy was awesome, he was fun, a good person and if you had any problem he was always there. One day all the people from the summer camp hung out in Madrid and my father saw the black boy. When I came home he said that I cannot more see him. I told him that he is a good person and my father said to never trust the people for what they are tell you.

            I think in this world everybody judge people before meet them and I don’t like this because a person can have a bad appearance but this person can be the best person in the world.

            

3week

this week i did really better that the other my writing are getting better and i am so happy about that. the mini test i did very good too. these week was in general very good.
Have a good time this weekend :)

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Face-to-face communication is better than other types of communication, such as letters, email, or telephone calls. Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

            Communicate face-to-face is the best form of communication. You can know if a person is lying or not. The other ways of communication such as letters, email, or telephone calls are useful when you cannot do in this moment face-to-face.

            When you are face-to-face with a person you know if what she/he is saying it is true or not but when you talk to this person on the phone you don’t know. For example, I can know when a person is lying on the Skype that he/she have. Sometimes I can know when a person is sad speaking with me by internet. Usually I like to speak face-to-face.

            For me, it is very difficult to speak with my friends in Spain. I am speaking with them by internet or by letter. I like to sent and get letter. When I saw in my mail box a letter I am very happy and I stop everything in this moment to answer. I love write letters and I think that the letters are going to disappear because now no one write letter and seriously it is very fun and it is not expensive.

            People are very different speaking on the computer than face-to-face. I know people that have two personalities. In front of the computer are very friendly and chatty but when this person is in from of they are very shy and don’t know how to act. There are a lot of people like this. I think this is because people don’t have confidence in themselves.

            Communication is very important in our lives always is a good way to communicate but the best is the Face-to-Face because you can know this person very well and know if this person is lying or not. The traditional communication like letters can not disappear.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television, newspapers, magazines, and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people such as public figures and celebrities.

        I think that television, newspapers, magazines, and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people such as public figures and celebrities. It is true but I am disagreeing with that.
        The famous normally start their way only to work and to make money. When the people become little bit famous they start to have relationship with other famous people. Al this start to grow up and the people who are follow the famous; they want to know more about the famous life. Right now some people are focusing on the private lives of the famous and I think that is not a good thing. The famous are famous and now we want to know about their private lives. Their work is work for the recreation of the people’s entertarment.
        When I watch TV there always they are at least 5 channels talking about the life of famous people. This makes me sick because I don’t care about the life of the famous. I want to see a movie. I don’t want to know about the life of the characters of the movie.
        I think maybe the famous think about that other people think. They want to look like they have a really good life and look like they are happy. In general most of the people are not happy with their life. For example, Amy Winehouse started singing and she knew that people loved her. She started to take drugs and now she is dead. It was very sad but it is the reality.

"When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success." Do you agree or disagree with the quotation above? Use specific reasons and examples to explain your position.

            I agree that people who are successful so are due to hard work not by luck. In school,  students are not able to pass exams without studying. Scientists cannot invent new scientific theories without learning anything about it. Each athlete is not able to win something without going to practice.

            In school, if you don’t study for the test you are going to fail. I had a girl in my class that told me that she didn’t study for the test. She always got “A” in everything. I didn’t know how she got this grade. One day we had a biology test and I told to go to her house to study. I went to her house. She was very nervous because she didn’t know anything about the subject. The conclusion is that she studied a lot; this is why she got this grade. It was not luck that I thought that she had. She got this grade because she studied a lot.

            Another thing that is due to not luck is science discovery. scientists are not lucky when they find anything new. It is because they study a lot during years and they observe everything. Sciences spend most of their life leaning about something and doing experiments. It is not luck. It is hard work.

            The athlete is a good example and very close to me because I am on a swimming team. If you don’t go to the practice every day you are not going to succeed. For example, this weekend I had a relay race. They were 4 girls on our team: Caroline, Becca, Kelly and me.

Caroline, Kelly and I went everyday to practice. Becca was in summer school all day so she didn’t have time to come to practice. The last weekend in the relay Caroline, Kelly and I bet our times but Becca did not. This is an example that if you don’t work hard you will not see success.

            Everything in the life is very hard and you have to work in it. If you don’t work in it you never are going to be successful.

            

Reflexion 3 week

in this week i improve a lot my english.

the exercises of grammar are so good and the listening 

my problems are in the reading and the speaking.

surprise

tomorrow i have the US age group in harvard and so excited but this  meet is very hard.:)

Parents are the best teachers.

            I think that the parents are the best teachers because they know you very well and they know when something is right or is wrong. In general your parents want the best for you and your safety.

            When I was 13, the best swimming team in my country wanted me to be a member of the team. I did the trials and they thought I was enough good to enter. When I told my dad, he was so happy with me but there was a problem. The problem was with my mom. She thought that it would be very hard to go 2 hours each day to swimming. I was angry with her because it was my dream to be on  a good  swimming team. As time went on I think my mother was right because swimming is very tiring sometimes, and you need also to be able to study and it is much more tired. I am on a good team now because the school day in the united states is shorter than spain you can be home at 3 you are in your house and you can do your homework and this means that as well as go to practice.

            I like to learn things from my parents, especially my father because he is a man has a cold mind and he is not afraid of anything. It is wonderful because he wants to line who in each moment and never be wrong. He is a headstrong and he always has to be right. It is true that he has a few friends but he knows that this friend is forever. No one at this work knows about his life He is somewhat “antisocial “and he is always like angry. I think that there are many things that I can learn from him. I love how my father is.

            You know that your parents want the best for you and sometimes you think that they are wrong, but with the passing of  time you realize that they were right. You always can learn a lot from your parents and recover from their mistake they made. You can lean now not to repeat the mistakes that they made.

If you could change one important thing about your country, what would you change?

If I could change one thing of my country I would eradicate robberies and the murders in Spain. Right now in Spain people are feeling unsafe.

The robberies are very frequently in the center of Madrid. You cannot walk in the center of Madrid without your bag in front of you because there are people that steal a lot. It is even much more of a problem for tourist. When I went to Spain last year I didn’t carry a bag because thought I was an easy target. In Boston, I feel secure and in Spain I forgot that it is the opposite of Boston. Robberies in houses is increase this year because the economy of Spain is very bad right now so the people entry in houses and steal everything.

Murders are also a big problem in Spain. In the past 3 years every day a woman has been murderer for her husband or ex-husband. It is very sad but it is the truth. And also now there are cases many of sons killing their fathers and siblings.

            One reason for Spain’s problems is due to a difficult economy. I think that the people are more vulnerable and security decreases as a result.

I think that people’s safety is the most important thing. It is that Spain address this problem

Students should take out student loans to avoid working while studying.

        I think that the students should take out loans to avoid working while they are studying. One reason is that, if a student works before or after the class this student wouldn’t be able to study a lot of the time a this would make it difficult to focus on the lesson because she/he is very tired. Second reason, if a student works they wouldn’t have time to be with his/her friends. And the third reason, if you are a athletic person you wouldn’t be able to play a sport because you have to go to the class and then study which wouldn’t allow for  time to do exercise.
        The first reason, I think that is the most important because when you work you get tired and you cannot study well when you are exhausted. You are also more likely to fail  test and your mood can be negative if you are tired.
        The second reason, you are not time to stay with your friends and it is so bad because sometimes you need to socialize and have parties and have fun with your friends because if you won’t do that you are going to feel alone and you can begin a depression.

The third reason, if you work you don’t have time to do sports and are very important sometimes because you can forgot what is happening in your life. For example I think if I have to work and go to the class and then practice a sport I am going to be a dead person because it will be too much work in only one day.

The focus in the college is going to be successful. You cannot be successful if you are focusing on more too many things. You cannot spend all your four years with not doing sports or not seeing your friends so I think that students should take out  for college and not work while studing.

Friday second week

this week the grammar was easy and the listening too i liked the listening exercises
the most difficult for my was the writting.
the speaking i liked the three last days.
the reading of the book was so complicated

SPAIN

A Great City

            I lived in Madrid for 16 years. Madrid is the capital of Spain. The population of Madrid is about 3.4 million. The buildings of Madrid are very old and beautiful. The most important things that you can find in Madrid are the food and the bulls. Madrid have a very good public transportation It is also cheaper than many other cities.

Likes and Dislikes

            In general I like to play sports but I like swimming the most. I don’t like to read books. I like doing big puzzle with lots of pieces. I like to hang out with my friends but I don’t like to dance.  Also I like to watch movies at home not in the cinema. I like swimming at the beach and getting a sun burn.

Spanish

            The Spanish people are very friendly and are always thinking about spending money, drinking wine or alcohol and parties. The Spanish people want to be with the family. Soccer is very common in the Spanish people. The Spanish like to eat a lot and they like American food too, especially fast food places.

Try to write a number of similar paragraphs about what you did last weekend.

Last weekend. On Saturday, I had my final US swimming meet at MIT. The meet on Saturday started at 7:30 in the morning and ended at 12:00. My parents and my grandparents and I went to eat in the Prudential Center. We ate at the top of the towel. This place is awesome because you can see all of Boston.

On Sunday, I also had a US swimming meet the same hours as yesterday. After the meet we went near the aquarium to eat at Joe’s restaurant. Then we went to play miniature golf in Dedham. This weekend was great because I did all of my meets and I spent most of the time with my family.

yesterday

Yesterday evening Jack got home at half past five. He immediately made himself a cup of coffee and sat down to read a book. He read the book at half past seven. Then he made dinner and got ready to go out with his friends. When his friends arrived they decided to go out to see a movie. He stayed out until midnight with his friends. Finally he fell asleep about one o'clock.

Yesterday evening I went to leave my grandparents at the airport at  5 o'clock. I immediately went to practice from 6:30 to 8:15. After  practice. I had dinner. Then I took a shower. I spoke with my mom for  a while. Later I read a little bit. I finally felt to sleep at 10 o’clock

Tell about a time when you lied to your parents, boss, or teacher.

                                                                                                                                                           I do not usually lie to people but one time it was absolutely necessary. This past March I was injured. My leg hurt a lot and I could not swim. On my team there was a boy that didn’t like to swim. He always came to the practice late because he did his the homework in the lobby before swimming. I had been injured for more than 10 days so I was so bored in the pool because I could not swim.  I met this boy and the first week he didn’t go to practice and he stayed with me. He was a problematic boy and my coach hates him. My coach was very angry with him and the coach told me that I have to stop to seeing this boy; I could not do that because he helped me with my English homework and I helped him with his Spanish homework. We continued to see each other during the next week.

When my injured got better I continuous to him sometimes with his Spanish homework. One day I came l5 minutes late to the practice because I was with him doing Spanish work. The coach came to me and told me what was happening and I said I was with my mom talking about something important. I lied because if my coach knew that I was with this boy I would be out of the team. I had to lie for a good cause because if said the truth I would not be on my team. I do not like the, however that lie all of the time.

Tell how to discipline an unruly child.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  These days there seem to be a lot of children that are unruly, I think one reason is because nowadays the people work a lot and they don’t have time to be with their children. As a result children need a babysitting.

The couple that only has one child can be another problem, Sometimes an only child can be an unruly boy. I think it is because parents of a single child want the best for the child and they spoil the child by purchasing anything that the child wants.

            The discipline of a child is very important. Many parents didn’t see this and it is a problem. You have to start to educate your child when he/she is 1 or 2 years because the child starts to play games with their parents.The game is to know how far the child can be with their parents. I know that because I have a younger cousin. She is 3 years old and she can do wherever she wants because her parents allow her to do anything. She is different when she is with me. However I don’t have patience with children so when my cousin wants something that I don’t want give to her, she knows when I say no it means no.

            I know that it is difficult to discipline a child, especially when it is your first child but you have to realize that it is better for your child. The first thing, you should do is to make it clear to your child knows who rules the house and that he or she must obey the rules. Second thing, it is to provide your child with all the attention you can. For example if you come at home early from works. You should try to play at a playground or play with him or her at home. Finally you should know to teach your child right from wrong and when you have to say no.

           

At Newton South High School cell phones are not allowed to be used in school. What is your opinion about the use of cell phones in the classroom or in school?

                                                                                                                                                                               My      school is Newton South High School; the school is in Newton, MA. In this school you cannot use cell phones in school or in the classroom. In my opinion I think that using the phone in the middle of the class to send a message or to talk with someone is wrong.  I think, however that sing all cell phones have internet access that this is a good thing because you could find information that you don’t understand.

            People often abuse the used of their phones and it is not good. For example I had a male classmate in my ELL class that could not stop touching or using his Iphone I think he was consumed by the technology. The teacher used to very angry with him because his focus was on the cell phone and not in the subject. Every day, my teacher takes his phone more than once in the same day.

            For me my phone is very important because I have a lot of dictionaries on it and it is very helpful when I have problem with the language. One problem is with these dictionaries however is that i need it to be connected to the internet and in my school the Wi-Fi or 3G is blocked and I cannot use them.

            There is a thing that I do not understand why cannot we use the phone between classes or in the lunch time? For example for me this free time is very important because I can speak with my Spanish friend. I cannot talk with them in the afternoon because is six hours more than here.

Everybody use his phone in class and I think that now none can stop that. When I came to the US the thing that impressed me was that all the people in the street or at work were using their cell phones. I did not understand at that time but now I understand why. You can have unlimited messages or calls. This is awesome. In Spain to send a message cost 15 cents which is very expensive.

            Cell phones are a good invention and even better with internet access but sometimes you have to know where and when you can use them. For example in school is not good to use them in the middle of the class. Using them in class is disrespectful to your teachers and classmates because you are not focused in what is happening in class. I think using them at lunch time or between classes is ok.

Tell about a time when you were treated unfairly.

            I were treated unfairly when I was 16, the last years, I was in my school in Spain. I was trying to study hard to pass the final test. I was the only person in my class that I had to take the test early because my family and I were moving to US. Imagine what it would be like to take all of the final exams in three days. I was feeling a lot of pressure; under these circumstances I had at least 8 exams. One day I came to the school and like I had been doing. I studied in my classes to prepare for the final exams that I had not taken yet. This particular morning was good but in the afternoon the day became worse. I had to do the history test and I hated history, it was a subject that I simply did not understand. My next class was English and I was planning to study for my history final during this time because I had already taken the English final and this was my last chance to review for history. My English teacher was absent and instead we had a substitute. When I was in the 8^th grade, this substitute teacher used to look me up and down. She seemed to me to not approve of me. One time, insure when it was 40 degrees she told me to put a jacket on.

I did not have good memories of her when I met her again in my English class this day. This day she put on the blackboard the things to do in English but I had already taken the English final and, I did not have to do it. She took my history book and said to me “this is English class not history “I then told her the story that I was leaving but she did not want to understand so I did the work in English. She gave me the book and told me “I am so happy that you are leaving I don’t have to see you again, good luck” I felt stupid, She trampled in me. In this moment the  thing that I wanted to do was cry but not cry because she told me that but I did not cry. I was very angry and filled couth. When my classmate heard what she said all the people in my class started to scream at the teacher and she left the class crying. I think some people in this world are just mean to other people for no reason. I do not want to remember this moment again it was horrible. Finally I passed the entire final exams.

Describe a famous park or recreation area in your home country.

                                                                                                          

             I was born in Spain. I lived in Madrid, there are a lot of recreation and park area but the most famous and beautiful park in my country is “El Retiro”. I passed a lot of time in the park and you can do a lot of things like go in duck boat, you can read, you can take a nap, you can walk, in general you can do wherever you want.

            “El Retiro” is situation in the middle of the city, you can get there by bus, cars because there are a sub terrain parking, train or metro or by bicycle. This park is very especial because is in the middle of the it is huge and around it there are a lot of apartment that is very expensive to live there is like “central park” but “El Retiro” does not have a zoo. In the middle of park there is a super big lake with boats like ducks.

            In the park you can do a lot of things. I like the most go with my friends and stay in the grass talking, playing cards, dancing, meeting people and having a drive in boat and the most important having lunch. When I came to the park the next day I do not feel my legs because we always walk a lot.

            In the pass this park was very safety and you can do wherever you want. Now, especially in the night is very dangerous because there are thief, bad people, all the people go to do ”Botellon”.”Botellon” is when you are younger than 18 years old and you came to a park to drink alcohol. Whereby the people are drunk and the next day the park are very dirty. In the night is better but it is very dangerous sometimes and more for the immigrants.

            I love all parts of Madrid but the most is “El Retiro” I passed so good moments in this park and I never going to forget it. If you have the chance to go I recommend you to go and you will pass a very good day and fun.

           

What would you do if your car got a flat tire on the freeway?

                                                                       Lucía Llorente Ruiz

What would you do if your car got a flat tire on the freeway?

           If my car got a flat tire on the freeway I would ask for help. First at all I would put my car and myself safe on the right lateral side of the road where no one could run over me. Secondly I would call my dad came to pick me up and  i would also called my car insurance to take the car. Finally I would wait inside the car to my father pick me up.

           It has never happened to me because I only have my permit and I cannot drive without an adult with license next to me. however my mom had this problem when I was 15. I was waiting at the bus station at 9 pm because I had swimming practice  My mother was going to pick me up there, after waiting for 5 minutes and I called her and she told me that she was on the roadthat had a flat tire. She was on the side of the road waiting for the tow truck. I  started  walking  home. i walked for 1 hour. I was so afraid because no one was around. When I came home my mom wasn’t there  I called her again and she told me that she was still waiting for the tow tuck. My mom came at home at 12, it was a crazy  night.

           When you get a flat tire on the freeway the most important thing that you can do is to be safe and very patient and call your car insurance to pick your car and call some person who can pick you up.

What would you do if you got lost in an unfamiliar city?

Lucía Llorente ruiz

What would you do if you got lost in an unfamiliar city?

If I got lost in an unfamiliar city the first thing I would do to ask a person if she knew where the place i was looking for was, then i would  take my phone and try to research online the way of the place  i was going to. If I was in a forest or location didn’t have 3G access or people i would had to do  first thing have to do calm down. i would try to find way out quickly.

When I was 14 years old, I was in Dublin with my school on a field trip. We lived in different houses. My house was very far from  the school that I went to. I had to walk a lot. One day, I hung out with a friend and when I returned home I took a different street and I got lost. In this street no one was there so I couldn’t  ask for directions and I didn’t have a phone with 3G either, so i was not able to use the GPS. First I called my father, my dad started to laugh a lot, that wasn’t very helpful, I was so nervous so I called my tutor but my tutor didn’t know how to help me neither. I called my “mom” and I didn’t know English so I don’t know how she understood me but she found me but she was still able to find me.

When you are in a difficult situation you can at first feel very bad and be very nervous. As  time passes you will eventually see this situation to be very funny. The most important thing to do when you get lost is to not to be over react, calm down and always try to find different ways.

                                                 What would you do if someone accused you of a crime you didn't commit?

If someone accused me of a crime I didn’t commit I would be so nervous and I would try to present my innocence, when the problem was done I would do the life impossible to the person who accused me. Once this happened to me with my brother but it was not  a crime. My brother and I had a really bad relationship. One day my brother needed money and I really told to him that I would not give him any money then he stole from my mother. My mother was going to buy food and she noticed that she didn’t have the 20 dollars. My mom called me to ask me if I took the money and I didn’t know what she is talking about. When I returning house my mom was so angry with me and I didn’t know why, I talked with her and she told me that she didn’t like the people who lied. I said I didn’t lied to her at that moment I remembered that my brother asked for money that morning. Finally I talked with my mom and my brother had to tell the truth. I was so mad at him, I decided I never give him anything or buy anything. At first I felt nervous but in the end I felt very good when I was able to prove that i didn’t commit the crime but instead i was able to figure out who committed the crime as well as to help the person that committed the crime to come toward. My experiences was awful because in this moment i didn’t know how to act.

What would you do if you were late for an important appointment?
           If I was late for an appointment, the first thing that I would do is to make a call to the person or company that was waiting for me. Second I would find an alternative to came on time. Finally I would apologize for the problem. I usually am on time but when I am late I get so nervous and very angry with myself. This is not typicalbecause I came in time. One time in Spain I hung out with a friend at 6. I was ready at 5:30 but my mom was not, I told my mom that we were late but she didn’t believe me as a result the time passed very quickly. I called my friend and she was waiting. on  my way to get my friend what happen, my mom and i were on the car and in the road when we saw an accident. i called my friend again and she was so angry with me. Finally I came to the place where my friend was and she was so mad at me I apology and she accepted my apologize but the day was awful because all the things that we had planned to do we didn’t do it. I really hate being late to places. i prefer to wait for people rather than them waiting for me.
