Blogging at Facso

  Hello bloggers: When I  was in high school , I realised the only thing  I wanted to do in life was to become an English  translator and interpreter to work at the United Nations in New York travelling all over the world. But  shortly before taking the PSU, the career , was closed.  I was devastated and didn't know what I would do. I was just 17 years old. Finally I decided to enrol in  English teaching in order to change into Translation internally . In practice  it was too difficult. Fortunately , I met a teacher who advised me to become a teacher of English, so  thus I could teach and make translations without any problems. However, as  a translator, you can´t work as a teacher. When I got that, i enjoyed my career . Additionally, several years later I realised I could  have never been an interpreter because you need to have nerves of steel and I don't. So my dream was partly made true:  to work with English, make translations and travel not all over the world , but quite a

    Hello bloggers : How have you been doing? I hope everything 's fine . Well.   today we've got 2 topics for you to choose ONE: Your best  holidays or the best concert you've been to.  It's difficult for me to choose the best holidays because I've had several good ones, but perhaps the one that I most remember   was when I was 19  and hitchhiked  with a friend    to Chiloe for a month. I visited lots of places and met lots of interesting people, but the most important was the  experience of getting by on your own.  What about you? Write about your best  holidays: when it was, where you went, how long it was, who you went with, what activities you did, etc.  The second option is to write about the best concert you've ever attended. Talk about when and where it was, what artist you saw, what you know/knew about that artist. Describe the atmosphere you  could see during the event, how you felt , why you enjoyed it and include any other memories about it. Remember

  Ever since I can remember,my only dream in life  was traveling,  and more traveling. Several years later, I could make my dream partially true: I´ve been to different countries and my experiences have been great. However, there are still many countries I'd love to visit, for instance: Vietnam. It's such a faraway place, with amazing landscapes and admirable people who defeated such a powerful enemy in a long and devastating war. Despite that, they've been able to develop their country to make it an important economy nowadays. They've managed to make a combination of a capitalistic economy and a communist system that is difficult for me to understand. That's why I'd love to see that place.  What about you? If you had the chance to travel, what country would you like to go to?  Why?  What do you know about it?  What would you like to do there?  Would you like to study/work/live there? Explain.  Make comments on 3 of your classmates and your teacher's blogs.
