ANIMAL EXPERIENCE
ReplyDeleteI have always thought that animals are like humans but without the ability to talk. Some animals are so intelligent that act like humans, they feel and need love. I, personally, like dogs more than any animal, because I’ve always have had affection for them.
For example, once when I was little, I had a great grandmother that had a dog and lived with her. She was very responsible and loved her dog. The god’s name was “trucha”, and she always was fed by my great grandmother. She always removed the lice from trucha’s body, gave her baths and took care of her. This dog always went with her to the store, church and all places and knew my great grandmother loved her.
Years passed and “trucha” was still living with my great grandmother until one day, she died. That day, “trucha” was very calmed and seemed to be not as enthusiastic as always. They took my great grandmother to the funeral to get her ready and then took her to the church near the house where she had worked for years. When they took her out of the car, my mom noticed that “trucha” was coming from the house to the church, and walked beside the coffin of her owner. During the mass of her, “trucha” was calmly lying down inside the church and when it ended, she went back to the house slowly.
I sincerely, think that dogs are very intelligent, and that they can feel everything in their environment. This experience reminded me a lot of it and reaffirm that dogs only need words to be like humans. Because they’re as much as intelligent as we are, they need love and feel can everything.

ReplyDeleteWell, I am a very weird person. If I don’t like a person the first time we meet, it will never change. And that’s really bad because maybe you’re hanging out with other people you think they’re good but they don’t. And I have an experience about that, that when you don’t even know a person you start talking about the way she dresses or speaks, and the worst of all is that maybe other people are talking the same things about you.
I have many friends but few of them are the ones that are close to me. So I had a friend I always judged her I don’t know why, but in junior high we were like best friends. Then we walked into separate ways into high school and I saw her like the worst of all the girls of my peer group. We stopped talking and sometimes she knew the things I talked of her in her back.
I realized that I really loved her because I don’t know no one of us is perfect and maybe I have more defects than her and I mean I’m not an angel either. I felt very sad until I went with her and told her everything I felt. We hugged each other and told what we wanted and promised to never make that kind of shows again. We also promised to continue being friends and that no stupid things were going to break up our relationship.
Parents are our first and most important teachers. Describe a time when you learned a valuable lesson from one of your parents.
ReplyDeleteParents always have the reason and you always have to pay them attention to what they say you and they always do it for your safety, if they shout at you they do not mean their angry, they wanna do it for your own good.
One time when i was returning from a friend´s house i came to my house an i had no keys andi had to stay outside. I went to the park, it was like 12 o clock and the park was very dark. My mom always told me not to stay in dark places but i never obey her.
When i was waiting for my dad to come and pick me up i saw a car coming towards me and felt that somtehing was going wrong and i hide my cellphone.
I saw to men coming towards me like with bad intentions and i went calmly walking to a party that was near their and stay their. Then my dad cam for me and went quickly for my cellphone and get into the car. In conclusion from now and on i will always obey my parent´s precautions.

ReplyDeleteEvery single person has had a moment like that. A moment where you don't give a damn and truely don't care about something. If it has not happened to you, it will eventually. I think it's just part of human nature, part of the unknown world that we called mind.
My moment happened when I was in junior high, in 2nd grade I think. All started when I got sick, really really sick, I mean literally. My mom took me from the school to the hospital, and there, the doctors diagnosed me with chickenpox. At first I did't think it was that bad, but then the doctor said it was bad, I was not gonna die and anything but I felt like I was about to, not until the second day I was in the hospital.
After my second night, everything went well from then on. They told that the worast thing has passed. I took the vaccine, the medicines, which tasted like hell and even I ate hospital food which was delicious, I don't know why people said it tastes horrible. Anyway I got checked out from the hospital.
This is when the worst thing happened. By the time I left from school, we were on final exams, we had to submit a lot of project, essays and stuff. Then someone that wasn't me took power of my body and mind. I didn't do my homeworks even though I had like a pile of them. But I did not do them and I didn't know why. The end of the story is pictured in my grades of 2nd grade: 99, 98, 100, 72. The last one because I didn't studied in all the exams and neither submit all the projects that I had left.
3. Sometimes lies can have serious consequences. Describe a time in your life when a lie had a serious consequence for you.
ReplyDeleteEverybody tell lies sometime in your life, thats obvious, but some of us took that as a habit, I mean that almost everything that we say is a lie, or that we use lies trying to resolve all of our problems.
When I was little I used to live in Mexico City, I had a very special friend that every friday he invited me to eat in his house. But the first time that i went there his mom made a very weird food, it was a type of meet that i had never tasted before with a lot of onions.
So I eat all the food in the plate, but not because I liked it, because i didnt want to be disrespectful. When I finish eating that she asked me if the food was good and I lie and said: yes is really good; so after that every friday his mom cooked me the same dish :S
So I think is better to say the truth but without being rude.
