Balance 2013

It looks like was yesterday when we were doing the balance of 2012 and preparing for receiving 2013, and the year has already gone. Another more.

A year in which we've all grown and matured a little more, in which we've set objectives; some became true, others no. But because of this the years pass, to fulfill all that we want and that we could not achieve before.

2013 has been a year like all:
Full of all kinds of emotions and anecdotes.
With its bad and good things, but like always and in positive minds, always the good things have more weight; and that is worth to be remembered. 
The best is forget and discard the bad.
We remain with the best memories and focus on the most important ones.

I have traveled twice to the Iberian Peninsula. In the two ocassions, I have been with relatives who I've seen little, I've seen face to face friends who until the moment and because of the distance, I only had contact with them through the Internet, and I've also met a lot of great people.
I'm glad of that they've accompanied me in part of my walking for this year which we left behind already.

The second travel was a dream become true, because many years ago I wanted to go to Barcelona, and for this summer I proposed it and I achieved it. It made me be very excited since the first moment.
I really loved it and would like to go back.
In addition, this trip helped me to take a decision. I want to go live in the Peninsula since two years ago; because I didn't feel comfortable in Lanzarote, but I doubted between Madrid or Barcelona​​.
Now, I'm sure that Barcelona is where I wanna be.
On the first trip, the return made me feel specially sad; so I realized on this year too that my decision to live in the Peninsula is really strong.

This year I also obtained the pictures of my school groups that had been lost and had been trying to recover for a long time. I uploaded these photos to Facebook and  consequently, I was able to get back in touch with most of my class when I was in preschool and EGB, because I had already located some few colleagues; who have tagged the others in the photos.

I have continued with my job searching, without success still, but with the difference that a friend is helping me a lot, and that is always appreciated. Also, I've done the course Food Safety and Food Handling, which opens me more doors to find something more.

So, in 2014 I especially hope work for all the people who don't have the luck to having one.
And that we move forward in life by struggling to achieve our dreams and goals.
My main purpose is to find a work, only with it, I'll can fulfill my dreams and future projects, which are two: Getting the driver's license and move to the Peninsula to live there.

It would be fantástic if I can celebrate there the next Christmas; or the following one.
See you in 2014, with best wishes to all.
Happy New Year!

Thanks to my friend Isabel for correcting me the mistakes on this text.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Hello my friends!!
Did you think this blog was abandoned?
No, it wasn't!!

The problem was, I didn't know what to write; but now, I want wish to everybody Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year two thousand and thirteen (I have written the year with letters in order to practise the numbers; remember I'm Spanish and I have this blog for practising my English)

I hope you have a great time with family and friends; and the new year comes full of all the best, in every way.

Best wishes and a big hug to everybody!!

Feed my pets :D

I don't know why the HTML code of the turtles stopped working; so I searched it again in the Internet but I couldn't find it; but I find other pets: A hamstes and some fish.
 I hope you like it!
I'll continue looking for the turtles ;)

I never buy things that I don't need

There are a lot of people who buy unnecesary ítems, becase of, consumer society in which we live, and influenced by advertising.
I do not belong to this group of people.

I don’t like spending my money on things that do not need or I really don’t want, because is hard to me raising money. I haven’t got a job, so I depend on my parents and they do not usually give me much money. Because of that, I have learned to give myself, and spend only when it’s really necessary, or when I’m really sure what I want.

Futhermore, I like saving money to invest in expensive things that I really would like
to have, such as a digital camera or a new computer.
I like going out with my friends too, I have to pay public transport and when we go out, we like drinking alcohol.
I I'd rather having fun with my friends before having my house full of junk; I like simple life, without accumulation of unnecessary possessions that just take up space.
I like having only objects that I really use.

The Trip of my Dreams

-->

I would like to go to Greece. One of my friends was here in the 2006 and he took a lot of photos that when I saw and they are very good photos. Since that day when I saw the photos, I wish traveling to Greece ans see by myself all the beautiful places that I saw in my friend’s photos. I think I would have perfect holidays if I achieved to go.

The first place which I would like to visit is Athens; I want to see the Acropolis and, of cousse, the Parthenon; the symbol of Athens and, in my opinion, the most important site of the tour. I would like to visit Thessalonniki too; I know a girl who lives here; I met her in the Internet.

In addition, I want to visit some islands. There are a lot of famous islands in Greece, but not all of them are important for the tourists. I only want to visit two, of the Cyclades; Mykonos and Santorini. I love their characteristic architecture, with white and blue houses and churches. These colours transmit many peace and harmony, and I like these way of life.

Many people say that in Oia, Santorini, they can see the most beautiful sunset in the world. Residents and tourists meet in a place of the island to contemplate it.

Santorini is a very quiet and relaxing island.

In the other hand, Mykonos is a noisy island, very perfect for people who like drinking and having parties. It’s like Ibiza, one of the Balear islands in Spain. In Mykonos there is a very lively nocturn activity. Mykonos is also famuos for its narrow streets and the pelican who walks free in the street; people can take photos and feed him or her.

I remember; if I go to Greece, the Parthenon is compulsory to visit; if I don’t see this monument, I haven’t see anything. About the islands, if I’m lookinf for calm, peace and an unforgettable sunset, Santorini is the best option, but if I want party all day, crazy beaches, alcohol and getting drunk, I’ll have a great time in Mykonos.

I would like to go to the four places (Athens, Thessalonniki, Mykonos and Santorini)

It’t the greatest desire of my live; I don’t want to die whithout become true my dream.

A trip which, I’m sure, I’ll want to repeat.

Hello People

Hello Everybody. Welcome to my blog; this is my first post, so it's a little presentation.

My name is Alexandra and I'm 22 years old. I was born in Madrid but I live in Lanzarote, Canary Islands. I came here when I was 4 years old.

I'm sure that you'll ask why I'm writing in English if I'm Spanish... Well, I'm studying English and I enjoy learning because I like languages and I also love writting, specially about my feelings. Because of that, I decided to do a blog in English, in order to practise my learning and help me to progress.

I'm sorry if there are many mistakes in my posts; you know, I'm still learning.
About another interests mine, I like computers, photography, and drawing. I'm not very interested in sports; I only like trekking.

I'm very sensitive, and shy too, but I will be very nice to meet everyone who wants to meet me.
Are you ready? Read my blog!
I'm working in my next post, whose tittle will be "The trip of my dreams"; I'll write about where I would like to go.

I'll public more new posts as soon as I can; I haven't got Internet in my house, so I only go on-line when I'm in class, but the holidays are coming and I won't have time to go on-line unless I go to a cyber.
Have a nice day, see you!
