Nature or Nurture?

It's a fact that women and men are different, but what are these differences? and where are they come from ? Actually we can see physical and character differences, it is important to clarify because character characteristics are learned since childhood teachings, it means when we are child our parents taught us what it right and wrong, it builds our character and our way to be. So if we relate men with aggression, it's not because the cause is their nature, it's just because their social environment was guided in that way. For example when a boy is growing up their parents tends to teach them that the men are stronger than women and that it's wrong to be weak. Otherwise if we talk about women we relate their character with delicacy. As men the women are raised to be in that way. When a woman is child their parents taught her to play with dolls and cook in fake ovens. However not all women and men act like, it is just a generalization.
On the other hand physical characteristics are related with physical activities. Maybe it sounded a little redundant but actually it's a fact that men are stronger than women, it is because men develop better their muscles and since child they practice sports. Otherwise women don’t develop this part, women are skinnier, and it gives them an advantage in manual work. It's a fact that all this characteristics are controlled by the brain. Specialist say that men are more developed in phisical activities and women are more developed  in manual work, because each one developed their own brain part. As I said before it is just a generalization, by the time it's chainging. Nowdays women practice sports and

A scary event in my life

I'm going to tell you a bad experience that I had a long time ago. I was really frightened, I just remember and all the bad memorizes come to my mind and the way that I was afraid. All began when I was 10 years old, I was a short and a fatty girl. I was with my sister and one of my 12 cousins in my house. They decided to watch a horror movie "The Ring", if you know this movie, you know that it's about a girl who died drowned inside a well. The story tells that she wants to revenge her death. The way that she does it is killing people trough a video. I know you are doing the same question as me at the first time I saw it , how does she do it??  The answer is easy she just appears outside of you TV and kills you. After this introduction I'll continue with my story. I decided don't see it, because I'm so weeping person, so I just felt sleep in the same room as them. While they were watching the movie the noise woke me up, but I didn't remember that they were watching it. So I just opened my eyes and suddenly appeared the worst scene, it was:  the big girl's face in the whole scream!!! I almost died; my heart was biting the fastest way I’ve ever had. I began to cry a lot and my sister just said: " Come on, it's just a movie, don't be afraid", but I could stop after 20 minutes. When I was better my sister did something really mean to me. She went to the bathroom and put her hair as the girl and she turn around her eyelid. She began to do a weird noise and came to me. I freaked out; I screamed and cried a lot. I'd never imagine that she could do something like that. Finally she were really regretted about that , she apologized to me, but it is the moment that I've never seen that movie again, because I'm always going to remember that moment in my whole life.

Family Member

As my title shows I'm going to talk about one of my family members. I decided to talk about my father, because he is the person that I admire the most. Nowadays he is a electrical engineer. He is an assistant manager. He hasn't been an assistant manager throughout his life. He used to be a head of division in CODENSA. It is a successful company that is in charge of all electrical circuits in Bogota, my city.
On the other hand he is a great father. He used to be a strict person with me but it was just because he wishes that I will become a successful person as him, now he is diferent. Also when I was child he used to play soccer with me in the park and spent a lot of time with me, nowadays he can't.
By the way I have two siblings, one sister and one brother. They are great and my father supports them in all their decisions too. Otherwise my father is the best husband. He used to hang out a lot with my mom, but now he is too busy to do the same. However he still has details with my mom as buy flowers for her. They are a beautiful couple. 
Otherwise He is a great cooker, I love the way that he cooks. He didn't use to be a good cooker, he always burned the food but with practice he was getting better than before. In fact the most thing that I miss about my father's food is the way that he cooks the beef. I think that is the best I've ever tried. He and my mom spend almost all the Sundays cooking for us, I really love it.  
My father hates when I do parties in my house, because I always invite all my friends. The problem is that after my parties always something is broken, so you can imagine how he is after that. He always said: “no more parties in this house, it's over at all”, but he still leaves us repeat them. 
In conclusion my father it’s the best person that I know, I really love him, he is supporting me all the time that I need him and I’m so glad for that. If I were to choose who could be my father, I always would choose him.

MY FAVORITE FOOD

BBQ CHICKEN WINGS

My favorite food is “The BBQ chicken wings”, this dish is delicious. Personally recommend this food like a start; the reason is the great taste that it has. In other hand it isn’t a heavy food that is good because it isn’t going to make you feel full.
If you want to prepare this easy and delicious dish you have to pay just $ 48.75. Ok, we just talked about price but what does it taste like? , it tastes bittersweet. It has an amount of   many sauces. It makes that it’ll be a little season.

My Trip to Cartagena

Saturday 11th June 

Finally we arrived to Cartagena. We were waiting for this trip since two weeks ago. It's so weird to be here because we had many problems in the airport. I thought that we would never arrive  to the  apartment because aleja's baggage was lost, but after an hour we found it.
The apartment is near to the beach. This is great because we will swim  tomorrow in the  afternoon. Today at night we are going to dance in a club, it will be so fun because I love dancing. In this moment is very hot, I hope at night it will be a little less hot. Tomorrow I am going to write more. See you later.


Sunday 12th June 

Sunday 12th June

Today we were in the beach. It was so fun. I still  feel the wind hitting my face. After that we went at mall. There we bought all the things that we will need in this trip. Tonight we might visit some monuments that are very important here or we will stay at home because we are so tired to do something. We aren't sure what kind of thing we can do, but I hope that it will be funny.

My First week in EF school

Ok.. It is my first post and you have to know that I'm not the best writer in the history but I try to do better that I can. So we can begin, my first day at EF school was so weird because I didn't  know nobody and I thought that all the people that I saw knows what they were doing, I felt so bad but in that moment I tried to be in calm . After that I had my lunch, the food was so fine, but now I think that I'm beginning to bother me with it because all the days is the same food. That day at night I was in Manhattan in a tour that was organized for the school, there I meet my actually friends, they are so funny really with them I feel so better now, we do many  things all days, I think that it can be the beginning of  a beautiful friendship.

The other day we were watching a horror movie, that was so bad because I'm a scary person, that day I couldn't sleep so well but althougth all was a nice night, I think that all happen for a reason and I feel that maybe those things make that I loke a little bit more my friends. I don't know what others things I can write, for this moment we can over, the next time I will talk to you other things that happen in my life.
