One day I was taking a walk on the beach and stopped to look at the waves. Suddenly, Ithought I saw something struggling in the water. It looked like a man who was having trouble swimming. At that moment I reached for my glasses, and then remembered I'd left them at home. I couldn't see the object clearly. Just then a big wave came, and the man was gone. At that moment I ran as fast as I could to get the lifeguard. After that we arrived back at the spot where I had seen the man. When the lifeguard looked through his binoculars He saidhe didn't see a thing. I was pretty embarrased. The next day I bought a newspaper. There was an article about dolphins swimming near the shore. As soon as I read the article I realized that i had seen a dolphin in the water - not a man!. After that I never went anywhere without my glasses again.

Halloween !
Halloween ...
The true meaning of halloween are traced back to the Celts. Around 2000 years ago, the Celts celebrated a holiday the last day of October. They thought that in October 31, undeads, spirits, and demons came to the earth to visit the homes in which they lived.
This was scary for the Celts and they used to went out of their homes and staid together out of their homes all over a field. They made a kind of torch to scare all the evil spirits roaning around in the night.
The celts lived in the lands that now are Ireland, the tradition of halloween came to America in the 1840's when the potato famine attacked Ireland and Brittish Island, those Irish inhabitants came with their traditions and habits.
Scholar desertion
The scholar desertion is a big and difficult problem that have to be stopped. In Mexico it is a problem that don't distinguish between social classes. And its causes are complex.
The school dropout is a phenomenon that occurs when a person during school years abandon his/her studies definitely for spending his time doing another activity. The Young people who drop out of school are unlikely to have the minimum skills necessary to take part in today's increasingly complex working society.
The migration is another big problem for contributing this growing trend, it is because too many families whose depends totally by the wage of only one person, they need to move from one location to another in order to search for a stable work.
Ironically other cause are the school as well, and it is because of the close and strict discipline of the teachers, by grading with failing notes to their pupils, and not preparing adequately their materials for giving a class, causing boredom.
As we can see, the school dropout is a very complex and important problem since one way or another stops the development of the society.

Supporting statements
As a rule, most teenagers in my country use to smoke during the highschool. It is a growing trend that may be stopped. There are many places in which smoking should be avoided and also there are many cases of cancer. And as all of you may know smoking is cause of cancer.

In general, people from the city don't have enough time for staying with their families. They usually have to work all week long and on weekends they usually prefer to rest or to sleep as much as possible.
If young couples in my country want to get married, they have to talk with their families, and ask for permission to give that big step in their lives, they have to ask for their parents consent.

Not inspired :/
Im not that inspired at this moment, i'm a little bit sad, because my computer broke down. I had it for 5 years and i really had special care with it,because was a gift from my grandparents, and one of them died a few months after they gave me the computer.
I remember with so much happiness those moments in which I tried to teach my grandfather how to use the computer. He always said " Chango viejo ya no aprende a echar maromas" and I would never forget that phrase, he always had a special care about me.
Because when I was a kid, i got sick of my sight and I used to have restrictions about not to play in the sun, to use sunglasses, not to strain my eyes trying to read when i wasn't able to. But despite the fact of having to do those instructions, during schoolweek i couldn't wait for the moment of going to my grandparent's house.
When it was friday i was really excited by thinking that it was only matter of time of being there with my dearly beloved grandfhater. Almost all my relatives ,who knew my grandfather, say that I am like him (phisically).
Wherever you are my grandfather, I hope to be your biggest reason to be proud of. I love you and I will never forget you, You will always be part of my conscience.

What a difficult week !!! Back 2 school
Hello everybody! here i am again, with the best of intentions for producing a nice entry, but trust me people, i feel sleepy, it is sunday, and I have sore throat. Well as some of you may know, the past monday i started classes in the morning again, from 7:00 a.m. through 2:00 p.m. and sometimes 2:40 p.m. It is really tiring doing that, every single day of the school week I have to make a big effort.
A regular day for me starts at 5:30 a.m. when I wake up, then I take a quick shower, and I get dressed with my uniform, next I comb my hair, after that I go downstairs and take a really delicious breakfast, I take my time for eating my breakfast, as I finish it, I brush my teeth. Then I take my backpack with my ring binder and my sunglasses. Then I go out of my house and open the front door for taking the car out of the garage. I drive to school, and I have classes all the morning. I have a break of 30 minutes at 9:30 a.m. and I usually go with 3 friends to buy tacos or molletes, also i talk with my girlfriend some minutes, and i try to divide my time for doing homework of the UAT, then i go back to classes. When the time of going home comes up, I quickly go out of my classroom and take my way back to my house. As I enter home, i take my t-shirt off and i quickly search for a clean t-shirt, I change my backpack and I try to eat as fastest as I can, then i brush my teeth, and ask my mother for taking me to the bus stop. As i arrive there, if I am lucky, there's one waiting, If I´m not, then i have to wait for one, i do my way to the UAT, sometimes reading, sometimes doing homework xD, then, when I arrive to the UAT, i run as if i were Ana Guevara hehehe, for taking the internal bus, in order to be in time for entering to my English class with Mr. Cabrales, then I study hard all afternoon, and I really HOPE for the time of getting back to my house. When I arrive home, I run upstairs direct to my room, and I throw my backpack, I take a shower and then I go down again in order to eat the dinner, then I do homework, and finally I go to bed.
That's a regular day for me since the past Monday, but despite the fact of tiredness, I do all what I am supposed to do, cause I want to be someone. Not knowing how, but I feel I'm in the right way. Thanks God for all, and thanks parents, I'm not going to dissapoint you.
Well, I have more things to do, and i have to say bye, See you later !!
