It's done

This will be my last post and I hope I don’t have to write a blog anymore. I know this is helpful and could support and improve my writing and also the way to think about the topic and develop the idea. However, it was annoying, beside all the things that I was supposed to do for other class, even for ESL class, I had to spend time writing on this blog, thinking about what to write, etc. On my blogger’s group I could read great stories and facts, I could catch myself reading and responding with a lot of excitement. I’m glad the ESL 142 is almost gone, and I can’t wait to go farther. I wish I could take the summer class, but at this moment for me is more important take summer off and have a vacation, but go to school. I’m pretty stressed, lots of things going on my life, and everything that I need after next week…is RELAX!!!!!!

Mother's day

Mothers have always fulfilled the primary role in raising children, and in order to commemorate and celebrate their undying and selfless endeavors, Mother’s day is celebrated on various days in many places around the world. This year will be my 3rd year that I’ll be away from my mother on Mother’s day, actually this is not a happy day for her, nor for me. It’s so sad, I miss her so much, and I wish I could go to Brazil just to spend next Sunday with her, give her a hug. I was thinking, since I can’t be there; send her some flowers or a basket filled with yummy treats, like chocolate or a basket with things for breakfast, so I could try to make the distance between us, less painful. I wish next year I can spend mother’s day with her and I’ll work hard to make it happen.

Counting down...

This week and the next one will seem longer than ever and at the same time very short for all the tests and everything that need to be done before the end of school’ semester. Today I had my 4th Algebra test, and to be sincere I’m a little bit disappointed with myself. I’ve studied hard since Jan, doing all my homework, trying to be on time with everything. However, about 3 weeks ago I got sick and I had to miss a class, and that class was very important, about log and its properties. I tried to learn the topic of that class by my own, and I think I did a pretty good job, however I was waiting more of myself. I know I got 2 wrong exercises of my test today, I was confused about one, and the other one I had no clue how to get to the final results. That’s fine, I had great scores on my last 3 tests; however, the problem will be next week, on the final test. I don’t remember anything about the first months of school. This weekend will be crazy, so many things to do: finish my grammar online class, do an in class essay, study for ESL final test, and plus study for algebra!!! Gosh!!! When It will be over???!!!!

Happiness

Just the other day I was watching this movie about some rich lady who lives in a big mansion. She seem to have it all, lots of money, a nice house, a loving husband, beautiful kids and lots of time to do whatever she wants. Yet blessed with all this prosperity, she was still unhappy. In fact she was miserable.
I believe that happiness is a state of mind or feeling of contentment, joy, satisfaction, pleasure, and peace of mind. It is very important having a positive outlook on things. That despite all the problems or hardship you might be facing, things will not feel so bad if you respond to it positively. Talking about how using positive words that you say to yourself can actually affect the way you are feeling or responding to a situation.

Summer Vacation

I start today planning my summer vacation. I was thinking about take summer class, but I already change my mind, and I just want have fun, spending the money that I was supposed to pay the summer tuition and go traveling. I’ve lived in the US since 2006 and I didn’t have the chance yet to go to West side. Today, I started tom search over for package to go to California. Actually, I’m searching a package starting in Las Vegas, and after going to California. I’d like to go to San Diego, Long beach, Los Angeles, and Santa Monica, but I believe that I won’t have enough time to go to all these places. However, even if I don’t have the time that I need, I will go anyway. My goal this summer is going to CA, even if just San Diego, I’ll be so happy, because I love spend time travelling and also I believe that the money spent in vacation is the most well spent money, because it brings me a lot of happiness and good time.

Good friends are priceless

Only a few times in your life do you find a friend that will truly be there for all of the ups and downs that life has to offer. We all have casual friends that we hang out with occasionally. We have a lot of friends in our address books but not frequently see them. Then you have true who helps you through your hard time, shows up on moving day, and supports us with moral. A true friend shows up when your heart is crushed and feeling no hope. Friends send those spam in your e-mail every day, a true friend call you to know how you are feeling. Friends hang out until morning’s hours, talking about nothing and laughing about everything. True friend help you when you have that terrible hangover, it forgives you, and try to show you that drinking too much isn’t the way. True friends are honest and will tell you the truth… even if it hurts. One of the most important things in friendship is to know you can tell them anything and count to them anytime.

Life and its acessories

It’s about life and the accessories surrounding it. Thus, there could be so many things to talk about, be it, family, loves, relationship, people, places, wisdom, philosophy, stories and many more.
Life has so many accessories and I believe the most important accessory for our life is the love of our family. Nothing is more important than family, friends are essential but family is fundamental. Plus I believe after leave my family behind, in Brazil, I stat to realize how they are important to me and how they fill my life with joy. I never been so close of my family, and when I was 21 a left my house to live by my own, it maybe is a natural process in many countries, but in Brazil you live with your family for how long you want. Even living by my own I was close of them, just 1 hour driving, but today I’m 10 hours flying and I miss them so much. I hope finish my degree in my planned time to go back to my roots.
