Leonor's blog

Hi!!
I chose Leonor's blog to see and criticize it.
Well, her blog doesn't have many things. I could see inside of her blog all the assignments but are just words; she could upload some pictures related with the text, which could be more fun. She has not many interesting things or something that show me who is she, I mean something that represent her, like a picture of her pet because in a post she talks a lot about street dogs, however I can't see anything about her pet and I know she has one called "koda". So that, she could upload some pictures of "koda". Also, she could upload a picture of her in the profile because is a little bit boring if you can't see the face behind the blog.
About the blog's color I think is beautiful, very pink! But is like her.
The other thing that I liked is the glitter text that she put in the down part of the blog, that is very beautiful and make the blog more fun.
There are some other things that she could upload to make more fun her blog and interesting to see it, like a clock or a box with the whether, I think that would be very useful.

Correction

Hi Everyone!!!

I must admit that BBC is a very goos(sp) website. Actually(p) I was watching some important and interesting reports like:. People are sleeping less these(ww) days and this fact is deeply affecting their health because they can(wf) concentrate well, their temperament is eally(sp) frayed and they tend to be always tetchy, like they were angry all the time.This problem could be caused due to the fact that some people are overworked (p)not only because they like working all (x)time but because they need to work more to have enough money to live.The situation is getting worst since teenagers are having the same problem and also some children, because as the fact that some of them have tv or computers inside their bedrooms, they stay awake until several hours after midnight and they have to get up early in the morning. In some cases this could be the cause of their low averages in schools.On the other hand(p) I also read about a page that gives you some english quizzes in few minutes and I really liked the website about phonetic, where we can prctise(sp) the pronunciation and know how we sound. This is veryhelpful(sp) now to improve our spoken skills.
Ok, that´s all for today, Have an excellent weekend!!!
Regards!!! Leonorsh!!!!

my complaint

Dear president:
It is with regret That I write this letter to express my disappontment and annoyance about some situations which are happenning in my neighborhood. First of all, I walk about three or four blocks to arrive my home everyday and in the way there is a street where is very dificult to cross it because drivers don't take care about the people who are crossing it. Before we didn't have any highway code, when people complain about that somebody in the local council take care about it and put some in the street, including a zebra crossing. The most common problem is with the zebra crossing because they have painted it many times but in that street circulate many cars, for that now is almost disappeared, therefore any driver can see it. In my view, this is a huge probleme because of this is a school zone so, there are always many children around the street and crossing it. I think a good idea would be to put bigger highway codes and periodically somebody from the local council could paint the zebra crossing, in that way we could avoid accidents. I would like you can resolve this probleme as soon as posible. I look forward to hearing from you by return.
Yours faithfully.
Viviana Barraza.

What I do at Easter

Well...I don't like very much holy week because I'm not very religious person, and I think Easter is for children But I have to say that My mother every year give me Easter eggs and I like them so much. Is a little ridiculous because I'm not a child and my sister have almost the same age, but in that day we have to looking for our Easter eggs. I think is funny but sometimes I think I'm not in the age to do that things, but my mother always says that in our souls we have to be children.
The other thing that I like about Easter is that you have time to be with your family and share with them all the things you do that day and take a break about everything you do during the week.

the worst thing about Chilean people

In our culture there are many things which are not very good, for example, public transport, rude people and language, in other words, the strange way that Chilean people speak. We have a lot of "idioms" or word which are not belong to spanish. So, When people from other countries came to Chile have many problems whith that situation.
This is the case of the person I interviewed.

What is the thing do you dismiss about Chilean people?

What kind of word do you think are very informal or weird?

There are any differences between the way Argentinians speak and Chilean people?

Do you remember any funny story related with this?

how can I improve my English skills?

I was reviewing the link of teacher Simon’s blog and I found a very interesting article and videos about how you can improve your pronunciation and do exercises about English. I think that kind of pages are very useful especially for people who study English, like me, because that can help you to improve and practice the language.

I started practicing and It was very useful for me because I could hear myself and realized how I pronounce and how other people hear me when I talk to them, What are my mistakes, the words that I don’t pronounce very well, and with this kind of exercises you can start to improve and learn more English little by little.

Inside of this page I found some quizzes, where you can do exercise about phrasal verbs, modal verbs and that kind of things. I think doing this exercises is very good and this page is very interesting. Try to do it!
