Mario Benedetti
Mario Benedetti is one of the renowned writters in Spanish from the 20th Century.
He was from Uruaguay but due to polytical problems on his home country in the 1970's he went to exile, living part of his life in between Cuba and Spain. He has a very large work, where we can find novels, tales, poetry and essays but he is famous for his poems.
Why are his poems so famous? I think he is able to make you understand what he was thinking while he was writting them and you can emphatazise easily with him, understanding what he was feeling and sometimes feeling in the same way.
Also, I like his metaphores and analogies.
In short, I recommend this nice author to everyone.

Changes the new apps do in our lives.
A few years ago I couldn't imagine to be in touch so easily with friends or family who live abroad.
Now, I can easily know what are they doing or contact them in no time when there is an urgent matter, something that in the past was very expensive and a difficult.
But, sometimes it's a little bothersome. For example, facebook, I can share with my friends pics from my last travel or party but also I'm sharing them with people I don't even know and even though I can tell them how I'm feeling or new things that has happened to me, there are people who can gossip througout my life. By the way, I can change my privacity also it's bothersome.
Also, there are new message systems that are cheap and fast but make you lose time because if you start a chat you can lose track of whatever you were doing beforehand and making you being ansious waiting for a reply sometimes and I find out that are the best way to the misunderstandings because of the sense you can give to the replies.

Write about learning a language
I only have experience learning three languages: English, French and Spanish Sign Languages..
The progresses I've done in the three languages always were thanks to my teachers and because I practised.
About the English lessons, I can differenciate between my school time and after. While I was at school I didn't have any kind of improvement because I didn't have any motivation and my shyness didn't help me at all. But, after I did Spanish Sign Language I started to improve very much, even though since then I started to sign while I was speaking. Thanks to that I have many funny moments because imagine someone who is speaking with you in English and at the same time is signing and also, the signs are cultural so some of the signs could be not so "respectful".
On the other hand, I also started learning French in the school but I didn't have as many difficulties learning French as I had while I was learning English. Since the beginning I didn't have any problems with the speaking or writing but when I ended the school years I stopped learning French. What a pitty!
Later on, because of my career and also because I always was attracted to the Sign Languages I started learning Spanish Sing Language throughout the Deaf Association of my home town where I met many friends that had different kind of motivations. Also, going to Spanish Sign Language lessons helped me to lose part of my shyness in front of other people because there I had to stand up and sign in front of the other students and the teacher. Also, it has its dramatic part because you have to express everything through your face, not only through your hands. That's why I've said before that I started to improve in the other languages.
Time after, I restarted to study English, this time my improvement was very fast and I lost all my shyness in front of my English teacher and in front of my colleagues but as it happens with all the languages, So, because I don't want to forget what I've learnt until now I'm trying to write almost everyday here.

The empathy
In a world in which we are starting to be too individual we are starting to hear about the importancy of the empathy, a word that psycologist use to describe how we should interact with other people.
An empathic person is the one who listens to the others and try to think like the person that's speaking, also he/she won't prejudge what they are hearing.
There are people that doesn't need to learn how to manage the empathy because it is inherent in them but most of the population need to learn how to use it so they can understand the neighbours and the works related with social services.

Write about an experience
I usually I'm looking for funny experiences or at least it is what my friends tell me because of the frecuency they happens in my everyday.
For example, once I was walking down the street and I saw 2 tourists asking for a big supermarket to an old lady and she started explained them how to go to a small shop in a dialect, so I though I should stop and telling them where there was a big shop, So, I started explaining how to go there, but the old lady was speaking non-stop then I started to translate what she was saying and while we were at it one man stopped as well and also wanted to say where the nearest supermaket was.
You can imagine the tourists faces, they didn't know what to do or to who pay attention and when realized I decided to leave and let them decide what to do because we were too many people telling them. So, I don't know where they went at the end. But, I am sure about one thing, the next time they needed to ask for directions they though it twice.

Write about a travel experience
A few years ago I went to Japan for two weeks, I was very nervous because it was a new experience for me and alos because:
First, I didn't know if I would be able to understand people because my English level wasn't so good, so I was expecting have a hard time trying to understand people, and I have 0 Japanese speaking level.
Secondly, it was the first time I was going to be so many hours in a plane
And third, because I was traveling with people I'd just met and I had doubts about how things were going to happen.
Everything started while I was packing, as I was told since child, I packed everything few days ago and I had a list with everything I was planning to take with me but at the last minute, I checked everything and without noticing left almost everything I needed at home and take some things it was impossible I was going to use in Japan.
So, imagine the surprise when I've arrived at the hostel and I was going to change my clothes and I found out what I had done, I was totally embarrassed. But, fortunately, there were washing machines everywhere.
Also, I didn't have problems with the language because I found many people that helped everytime I've asked
Lastly,the plane also went smoothly but I only had a problem when I was coming back just after I made the check in my pants ripped (and no, it wasn't because they were too tigh) and I had to do a 24 hours trip worried about them because I didn't have with change of clothes with me, but I can say that since that incident I always take with me a change of clothes,

Write about your home town
My home town it's a small city with 100.000 inhabitants that is sorrounding by hills and it is divided in two parts, the old and new part.
The old part, that receives many tourists each year, it's from the medievo even though there are some roman ruins found many years ago.
The new part of the city doesn't have anything interesting but it's where most of the shops and supermarkets are located so it's where you need to go if you don't want to buy anything related with souvenirs.
Also, near of the city we have many places we can visit walking, because they did small routes leveled by difficulty.

Write about learning a lenguage.
I had many experiences while I was trying learning different languages but with the one I have more is English because of the time I've spent studying it.
But, there isn't an interrelationship between time and improvement.
The other language I've been learning was French. My experience with this language was quite better but I think because I chose to start studying it, while I was forced to learn English and I didn't make any kind of effort.
So, I think the most important thing to start learning anything is being encouraged.

Write about what happened today
Today it was a normal day, as usually I went to my work at the right time (I've arrived 15 minutes earlier to prepare everything) and I could chat a little bit with my boss before starting to have our meetings.
Also, the best thing is didn't have to do extra hours, that by the way aren't paid (if I work more hours I have to take time another day to adjust my timetable, what I don't usually do though). So, when finished everything I went directly to the underground, that was crowded because tomorrow is a bank holiday and thanks to that I could go the park and walk a little bit because today it was a nice thay since it wasn't raining or hot.
