Challenges I face when I understand and share information.
One challenge I face when trying to understand information is when the information is written in a specialized language I have a problem to understand the information as well as I have a problem to process the information when it is extended articles or reports. For instance, when I read an article about the country’s economic in the newspaper, I can’t understand it. Then, I have to read it a couple times until I understand it. Another challenge I face when trying to understand information is I have a hard time to interpret information in charts or table as I have said, if the information is written in a specialized language I have a problem to interpret that information.
In addition, one challenge I face when trying to share information is I can’t explain information presented in a table, graph. For example, when I had to write the task about comparing the year sales, it was hard for me because I didn't know how to explain the chart. My day to day life in Canada is affected by those challenges because sometimes I come across with information that I have to understand in order to do something. For example, back in the day I was at work and my boss asked me to work on some papers with charts and I didn't understand them. As a result, I couldn't do the task that I was assigned it and I had to clarify the papers with a colleague. It is essential to understand everything you read since you are in Canada and you will come across specific information that you need to use in order to do something. In summary, life has many challenges that you face, but one way to overcome them is to think positive and focus on your goals.

Get the ball rolling use in Canadian workplace
Get the ball rolling” means to start an activity in order to encourage other people to do the same activity. I think people use that expression “get the ball rolling” in the Canadian workplace because they want to stimulate someone to start doing something. For example, it is very common to use that expression in an company when people are in a meeting because if someone says that expression will make somebody to start talking in the meeting. Also, the expression “get the ball rolling” says to maintain the momentum of an activity and the enthusiasm for a project.
It is a very useful phrase on the workplace because employers use it with the employees, so they can work continuously on something. For instance, when employes work on a project and there is a deadline to meet. Despite tiredness in the workplace, the moment an employer says “get the ball rolling” will make people focus on their job. In Canada there are some many idioms to use not only in the workplace, but also in the daily life of Canadians and therefore they are part of the country's culture. Idioms have the same meaning and by the same token you can use them in any situation that you are going through. In the end, idioms are an useful tool in the workplace, and without them people won't be able to make a point in a specific situation.

How to improve my writing.
One of the biggest problems I face right now is my writing. I don't know how to connect my ideas and therefore my ideas are not organized. Run on sentences are very common when I write, even if I check and try to write as much clear as I can, I still make the same mistakes. I really need to address this issue soon, otherwise I won't be able to go to college or get a job on my field. Writing in another language is challenge, especially if you don't know all the grammar rules and punctuation.

My hometown
My hometown is Tampico a very small city, which is located on the north of Mexico, just a couple hours away from the United states border. Tampico has a nice beach and it is not so popular and crowded than the one in Cancun, but still pretty decent for people who want to have a good time. On summer time the weather is almost 40C which it is pretty hot there, and on winter time the temperature is between 10-15C, so it is not very hot and you can still go to the beach without getting yourself a bad sun tanning. Every year there is a fair, which has some cool attractions such as carousel, roller coaster and ferris wheel. Therefore, at that time many people go to Tampico, to spend a couple days to relax. Not only go people on vacations to Tampico, but also for doing some business, it is a good option for investments, because there is a lot of american companies there and there is always money coming to the city. Overall, Tampico is a nice place to visit.

As a result, I will feel I don't have to study or review anything, so my language skills will be affect by that. Besides the meaning of some words or transitions, also the grammar rules, I think I know some, but the true is I don't know them very well, I would make the same mistakes over and over. Those are some of the things that could affect my confidence in my language learning.

Learning a language
Learning a language when you are an adult is one of the most difficult thing to learn, depending on how your skills development, sometimes it could take you years to become an expert. Although living abroad make your learning experience easy, it doesn't mean that you would become fluently in a few years, in fact if you don't use one of your language skills, you will have a problem after. For becoming a language expert, you would have to spend hours studying and practicing, so the language would be something familiar, also making mistakes could be something you will have to work with every time when you are learning. Practice makes you better, so the more that you practice the better you will become.

Failing a project
Failing a project could be a hard thing to deal with, especially if you have spend long hours working on that project that you think it may be perfect or at least ok, but when the reality is, that the project is not what your boss or teacher are expecting, you can feel upset, because you didn't achieve the goal of doing a good job, in other words you didn't meet the requirements that somebody wants. It is frustrating when you have to heard somebody telling you that your work is not good enough, however you must realize that sometimes you will have to put an extra effort to get where you want. Sometimes you want to give up and don't even try anything else, but the thing is if you want to really success in anything in life, you have to fail first, and then you can start again.
