The music in my life.

     I started to listen to music, my own kind of music when I was 12 years old, I remember that I fell madly in love with this group called My Chemical Romance, I used to hear them all the time, asking for their photos, their albums and everything that have to do with them, even when they came to Chile to a concert I wanted to go, but my father said no because I was too young. With the passing of time I started to listen to other types of music, almost everything I like, without caring about the type or the musical genre, but anyways I'll never forget the group.

     For me, music is like a four-minute space of a different reality, where I can find myself in the melody and the catchy lyrics; I can relax and find company when I feel alone and I leave my problems behind and everything turns the color of the music I’m listening to.  I feel free to sing; no matter if I sing really well or awfully, I express myself when the music I like is on and it is something that I would never change.

Bilingualism.

This term is very used nowadays because many people know one or two languages besides their native language. It's very common to see people whose native language is Spanish traveling to another country for a better living and they have to learn English, for example, to communicate with the people around them. We as English Pedagogy Students are already bilingual, because we are able to communicate in two languages, English and Spanish, and some of us even in more than these languages. These days people have the necessity of speaking more languages because of the business or just because more people are having the chance of traveling around the world. There are even some countries where people speak at least two languages besides the native one. Some children learn two languages at the same time having the chance to improve their way to speak for an earlier time.
In my opinion speaking two languages is very important and quite fun, because we are able to produce the other language and always there will be some people who are not going to understand what we will be talking about and it would be like a code for us :D .

Writing.

Writing is one of the things that I like the most, because we can think about one topic and then we can write something really good about it, I don't know why, but my writing skills are very good, I'm always able to write fast and quite good a text or a simple story. I like to write, even more than speak, because sometimes when you are speaking you don't have the chance to think about what you are going to say, sometimes you have to speak really fast, to answer something or something like that.

An important thing about me, when I'm writing is that I start to think everything in english, in my head there is nothing but english ideas, obously I have problems to remember some word order or some simple words, but generally it's great and fun to write in englis, I just love it.
