My TOEFL Test

        This week I took the TOEFL test, I took it last wednesday. It was just a practice but it made feel somewhat afraid, for it has difficult exercies in some academic fields such as Grammar, Writing, and listening. I spent 3 hours to complete this test, so I was a litle bite nervous.

         As many people know,the score to pass the TOEFL is at leat 450 points but in my case I got 497 points that is why I am so happy. My classmates did a good job, too. In next year, I will take another TOEFL, so I am going to do my best because I like to get as score at least 530 points. I will take it in January.

Thanksgiven Day

Last week, my classmates and I had a special celebration that was Thanksgiven Day. This celebation is the last thursday of november in The United States but
in Ave Maria-the place where I study English-People celebrate this day on Friday. By the way, we had a lots of activities such as expositions, dramas, and some games related with this day.
The day before Thursday, a woman of the embassy of The united States visited us to talk about the backgrounds of this day. The woman taught details that I did not know. Moreover, her exposition was really amazing, interesting, and fascinating. I dare to say that at leat 80 percent of my classmates liked her exposition. Know I aware about the importance of this celebration. The main point of Thanksgiven Day is that remember us give thanks to God for everything that we have such as our life and families.

About me

When I was a child, I used to be relly messy. I did not like to clean my bedroom, and I did not like to take a shower. I remenber that I liked to fight with my classmates. In fact, two times I went to the hospital, for my peers in the elementary school hit me. By the way, I did not have friends, so I spent my time alone. Yet, five years ago I had just two friends: my mon and my dad, but all changed when I was going to turn 16 years old.

I had a crash, which I almost died, but thanks to Gad, I recovered. As soon as I came back to the school, I began to change my personality and bahavior. I decidied to change my life, for I liked that people remembered to me. To day,I am utterly different. I am very neat, outgoing, and friendly. As a result, I have a lot ofmfriends, and I feel really happy with my life. Many things make sence to me.

Valentine`s Day

In this week I am going to do a lot of writing about holidays and something like that. For instance, let me tell you some details about Valentine`s Day. In almost all the world, people celebrate Valentine`s day. Every country have their way to celebrate this day. For example, in Japan, this special day occurs in February 20. People in Japan have a huge party and they exchange gifts among themselves. By other side, Nicaraguans have this day with their friends or with their couple . People usually go out to parks and restaurants.

For example, my best friend in Valentine`s Day takes to his girlfriend to a restaurant to have dinner. Moreover, traditionally men pick up to give bloom such as roses and carnations to their girlfriends or wives. Further, some men prefer to give chocolate. To illustrate, my uncle gives to his wife a delicious box of chocolate. In contrast, women have original ideas about gifts. As usual, women have a romantic idea about this day. For example, they give poems and letters that express their feelings instead of chocolate or flowers. Finally, during Valentine`s Day people can show to their couple how much they love them.
