I get up every morning at 5:40 am to go to the gym and exercise from 6:oo am to 7:00 am. You might think I`m crazy, and yes, probably you are right. But why did I decide to do this? Well, it all started like more than fifteen years ago when I really loved exercise. In my life I`ve practiced lots of different sports such as: Basketball, Baseball, American Football, Volleyball, Running, Swimming, Boxing, and even Skateboarding! I was a skateboarder for about ten years of my life. I really love this sport, and when I lived in Salamanca I used to skate during vacations and on the weekends for about eight hours a day! I mean, I was always on the street practicing it. As a consequence I was a very skinny guy. However when I arrived to Guanajuato city I stopped practicing skateboarding, you probably must now why. (It was mainly because it is almost impossible to skate in Guanajuato!) Anyway, my metabolism changed, and I started to gain weight.
These days you know me, you know that I am a chubby guy, and finally I decided to stop my routine for several reasons: I want to gain physical condition, I want to be healthier, I want to lose my tummy.
Anyway, this was just to tell you that I remember that a few years ago I hated to exercise, now I am back again, now the questions are: Do you exercise? What type of exercise do you like to do? If your answer is negative, tell why you don`t like exercising. If you want, basically answer this question: Exercise in my life.

Well, probably all of you are having exams these days. First of all let me tell you all: Good Luck! This post won’t be too long, because I want you to concentrate in your other exams.
This time I’m going to tell you an anecdote I lived when i was a student in Junior High-School. This happened more than ten years ago. I was studying in the afternoons. One day, one of my classmates arrived with the mathematics key in his hand. I mean, he stole one of the exams, answered it, (with help from someone else, of course). I remember he said: I’ve got the exam answers, but please, don’t tell anybody. Fifteen minutes later, the whole class had the answers written on the everybody’s palms. We needed to plan an strategy, so we all decided that we would write some of the answers incorrectly so the teacher wouldn’t suspect that we were cheating.
By the time we arrived to the classroom, and received the exam we realized that it wasn’t the exam we were supposed to have. The teacher had changed it! Of course, a lot of us failed the exam because we wouldn’t know how to answer it.
Finally, the next day, when the teacher brought our exam results he scolded us because he said that he knew that one exam was missing, and he figured out who was the person who stole it. So we learned the lesson, we failed, the classmate who stole the exam was expelled and I had to learn mathematics. What about you? Share an anecdote here about exams.
Hello there!
I hope you are doing ok. I’m fine, listening to some music and blogging, I really like to do both things, I believe that my writing ability has been improving.
Talking about today’s question, I have to tell you that during this week I have noticed that this weekend it’s going to be celebrated one more year of Mexico’s Independence. To be honest, I don’t pay much attention to this celebration. I do not like to go out, so what I usually do is to rent a movie and watch it while eating pizza.
I don’t remember when was the last year that I celebrated it, in fact, now that I think about it I don’t have a favorite day. Not even my birthday! Why not? Well, just because my birthday is on December 25 (That’s why my name is Jesús). Nobody remembers it! I mean, I am usually with my mom and siblings, having cake, receiving a few phone calls and that’s it. Usually my friends are hangover and they forget about my birthday. That’s why I don’t like this day.
However, I really remember all those days of unplanned parties with my friends mainly because I have a lot of fun. The kind of parties that I like is when I can talk to people about an interesting subject, dance, sing, play games, and why not? drink beer. (Axel don’t read this
)
What about you? What’s your favorite celebration? Party? Holiday? How do you like to celebrate it? Do you like to celebrate 15 de Septiembre?

Hi everybody again. I’ll try to answer some questions, all are very interesting.
Well, I’ll start telling you that on Saturday was a one day very busy for me. In the morning I was with my classmates to Plazuelas, it’s an archeological area, it’s in Pénjamo. I invite you to visit it; it’s very interesting, beautiful.
Now, I’m going to answer the questions.
First, I like my English class because I’ve learned so much; principally I feel that I speak better than before. I hope to write better also.
I really love my major but, I don’t like all subjects. I have many favorites subjects: Cultural Heritage because I love the history and the culture and in these subjects all the time we talk about them. Other subject is Travel Agencies I because I want to set up a Travel Agency specialized in the cultural topics about Guanajuato State. Now you can understand because these subjects are my favourites.
About studying and working I think it’s difficult because to have two duties is complicated. The last semester I was working and studying. I was studying from Monday to Friday and I was working from Friday to Sunday. I really was finishing very tired, although, I have to admit that I learned so much.
I’m going to continue, my busiest day is Wednesday, maybe you’ve can to see it. I haven’t gone to Wednesday class. This day I have a subject, Recreation and Entertainment, and we normally have to go out the school. Sometimes we’ve finished the activities after at 4:00 p.m., for this sometimes I don’t go to class.
Today, that’s all. See you the next week.
