My trip to Washington. So this last week I have been to Washington DC for almost one week. I want to tell you a little about my experience. I am from a city called Matamoros in Mexico very close to the US just below Texas. I have been to Texas several times before I go there almost every week but I had never been in another state in the US so it was I was very exited about this trip. When I first arrived to Washington I was astonished, first because of the metro (my city is small and I had never used a metro before) and second because of the quantity of people over there I don't usually see too many people on the street and I felt a little overwhelmed at the beginning. I visited a some munuments like the Washington and Lincoln memorial and the White house where I could see several people too (my city is not a turistic place) I could see a lot of green over there, what I liked the most were the parks over there, I would like that mi city had that quantity of parks too. My trip was to learn about how to be a leader and it was a school trip but when we finished activities we could to as we pleaced (not at all because we needed to follow the group and be in meet points at certain hours). I think overall this trip was an amazing experience because I got to talk to people just in English, and I realized that my English was not bad since I asked some native speakers about my level. They told me that they could understand me very well and that I have nothing to worry about. I think so far I have nothing else to say. Thank you for the corrections! Ricardo Ledezma.

I went to the high school again. Today I went to the high school again, since almost 2 years without being over there. It was a little weird because I remembered the place bigger than how it looks like. I went with my sister because she wants to take again after some years. She couldn't finish the high school due to some economic problems that we had when I was a kid, but now I convinced her to finish it because she just left one semester. Actually I want her to study a career since I know that it is a bit difficult to find a good job without a degree at least here in Mexico so right now she has to focus on her high school. She is lucky because I can help her with some subjects like maths or physics since I am studying and Engineering and I know about those subjects. I hope she has a great time finishing her highschool. Thank you very much for the corrections!!!

Enjoying my Holidays Hello to everyone, so I am having vacations, I am going back to college in January 23rd so for now I am enjoying my holidays very much. These days I have been walking with my dog in the mornings and nights, I enjoy very much to be with my dog, I don't use to see it too much because I study in another city so I am having a great time. I am also studying French and Portuguese in the afternoons. I can't dedicate time to the language learning when the semmester is underway because I am out of time. So I am approaching these days and I think that my level has improved very much in those languages. I should be learning programming too, but I don't know, I can't find the mood to learn about it right now. I need to rest a bit about the subjects of my career. That's all for now. Thank you very much for te corrections!!!

The new year It's been a while since I don't write here. But I'm coming back with a new English entry. My new year was like every other new year. Since I don't have family in the city where I live, beside my sister and mother I cannot say that my Christmas or new years are amazing, actually there are always a bit boring. Yesterday in the morning my mom started to cook a dish called Buffalo chicken wings and then she backed a chocolate cake and that's what we ate in the night. My sister and mother went to sleep early because they were tired for the day. I keept awake until 2:00 AM studying French and taking care of my dog because he was scaried because of the fireworks. That's all for today. Thank you very much for the corrections guys :)

Aprendendo o português Oi! Tudo bem? me chamo Ricardo e tenho 19 anos, eu comencei aprender português dois meses atrás porque acho que o português é uma lingua muito importante estos dias, também comencei a practicar porque tenho um amigo que mora no Brasil e sempre falamos em inglês mais quero falar em sua lingua y gosto muito de esta lingua mais as vezes es um pouco dificil por as semelhanças entre o espanhol e o português. Muito grato por as correções y até logo :)

Tengo una duda con el Ingles Hola a todos, tengo una pequeña duda con el Ingles. Por ejemplo cuando nosotros decimos una acción en Español, decimos por ejemplo "Correr", "Trabajar", "Estudiar" Pero en Ingles no ellos dicen "Running", "Working", "Studying" pero eso traducido literalmente al Español sería "Corriendo", "Trabajando", "Estudiando", he visto en textos (en Ingles) que contienen palabras como esas que traduciendo al Español quedarían en tiempo "Infinitivo" pero para ellos sería el tiempo "Continuo" Espero haberme explicado bien, si alguien puede resolver mi duda se lo agradecería mucho. ¡Gracias de antemano y saludos!

Are these phrases okay? Hi guys I'm studying English and I made some phrases I don't know whether they are okay, I've translated them into Spanish and please correct me if I'm wrong...

Hi guys, what do you think about this? Hi guys, how have you been? I need to do this question: what do you think about to learn more than just one languague? I'm doing this question because I'm learning English, italian and esperanto, too then it is a little bit hard for me... have you learnt more than just one languague? and what do you think about this, it could be easier to learn just one than more... but well it is my opinion, see you later :)!!!
