I never had a love relationship with an animal, but last year a beautiful female dog came to my house and stayed. She came with “juancho”, my other dog that always gos downtown in the mornings and returns in the afternoons. One day he returned with princesa, that since that day live s with us . We all love her very much, because she is always happy and gives you a lot of love. I think she was from the street and has lived a lot, maybe she has around six years old…

She is always  running in the yard, and playing with the dog from my neighbor, but you can tell she is a lot older than him, but  somehow they get along and spend the whole day together. When we party outside she join us, and runs through the guests like she were part of it too. Like one more of the crew.

I like that she never barks without a good reason, she is very calm and sweet with everybody. That´s very important for me, because I don’t like small dogs that have a sharp bark and they have always a reluctant attitude with anyone that gets closer. 

languages

Since i was little i had english lessons in school, and i enjoy them, because for me, in some way, it was exciting to have the possibility to express myself with new words and pronunciation. It was like a game where i could be another person, from another country. 

With the time english was the language from the movies or music that i listened to, so in that time, i learned a lot, looking the lyrics in internet, or just listening every time i watched a movie. 

But in some point, i think stop learning. I dont know why, maybe because since i left school i dont practice anymore. But my english with the time it s not getting any better, in fact, its getting really poor. 

In that way i think its very interesting what the speaker told today about Mapudungun. Because when nobody talks your language, not at school, not in the street, not when you go to buy some bread, it s very difficult to hold on to it.

Our mind, that it s very brilliant for some things, it also forgets more quickly then we think... So when we talk about languages, the first thing we should realize, is that we need each other.

I would like to go to Portugal, because I’ve seen a few pictures of Lisboa and it looks really pretty, I don’t know much about the country, so I don’t have any other arguments for my choice,  but for me that’s part of the fun when you go somewhere new, to discover and be amazed with what you see. I would like to explore the strees of Lisboa, and then spend some time in the beach, because I love big citys that have some water around them. I don´t know If I would like to stay in Portugal to work or live, because I’ve never been there, so maybe is not what I expected.
