Living in the country can be a great way to raise a family. A good reason to start off is that there is less crime rate, so it is safer for teh kids to play outside without much to worry about; at the same time, everyone knows each other, so that if anything were to happen, you can be sure that you would always have someone to back you up. On one hand you have the advantage of having everything near your home and without traffic problems you can get in time for your appointments and maybe enjoy life a little more, that way you would get less headcaches and more sleeping time. On the other hand, you could get bored of living in the country if you are too used to living in the country because eventually, you’d run out of things to do and could end up doing the same things all the time. I think that living in the country is great for raising a family.

Are we walking on garbage in our pedagógico?
In the last decade, contamination has been an issue that has affected all levels of life more and more through time. There is talk of global warming because of the high levels of contamination in some countries; if that is not stopped, it will become very dangerous to the future of humanity. Even though Venezuela does not bring a high percentaje of contamination compared to other countries, there are still some issues that need to be regulated in order to maintain life on earth. Some of those issues are seen in our pedagógico, some of them are: the lack of identity with the institution, the bad distribution of trash cans and the nonexistent conscience in the institution’s population.
The first issue is the lack if identity with the institution, which comes from all members of the pedagógico: from teachers, students, cleaning staff, administrative staff, and directive staff, even from visitors. It is outrageous to think that a person can throw what is on his or her hand on the ground without any remorse, so it is something that should be organized by who deals with that aspect. Also, the lack of punctuality with the payment, since it is a subsidiary institution which depends on the government, people lose their motivarion into doing a good work and there are not enough programs that incentivate students, teachers, and other staff members to keep their own house of study tidy.
Secondly, the bad distribution of trash cans in the institution does not help to solve the problem, because it only keeps people from putting trash were it belongs. Those trash cans should be put in strategic places like the courtyard, the stairs, near the dinner, and in every classroom in the teaching tower. One trash can is never enough, there should be many more.
Lastly, there is a nonexistent conscience in the institution’s population. Many people don’t have the guts to try to change the present situation and all they do is criticize others, they think that there will always be someone else to clean up after them, but that is not true and there should be a movement lead primarily by students to change what basically belongs to them, it is their house of study and it should kept that way.
To conclude, there are many issues that should be changed in our pedagógico: the lack of identity with the institution, the bad distribution of trash cans and the nonexistent conscience in the institution’s population. These issues should be revised by the rectoral staff and solved because an institution for teachers should not be a graveyard, instead it should be an example for all people to look up to.
Living alone…
People in general are very scared of loneliness. I have lived alone for the past two years and I don’t think it has been too bad. I wake up very early every day because I need to leave a few things done before I go to class. I must say that the hardest thing for me to do has been cooking because I don’t have much patience in the kitchen and it drives me crazy, but I learnt a few tips with time in order to survive on my own, not depending on Mc Donald’s or Arturo’s and now I can fry an egg without burning the kitchen. On the other hand, I have plenty of space for myself, I can do pretty much what I want and all the privacy in the world, so. Even though it has its ups and downs, living alone can be quite a joyful experience.

DESCRIPTIVE PARAGRAPH…I GUESS OF ME
It is a hard task to describe ourselves, but here it comes:
My Name is Reva, I guess I am not too tall, but I am not too short either. I have long brown hair and brown eyes. My face is round and my facial characteristics are the same as in all my family: big cheeks, big eyes and dimples.
I’ve realized how hard it is to write a description of our own characteristics.
I’d rather write about someone else than me. NEXT ON
