Learning Learning

today I failed my English Midterm exam and I got very disappointed I realise yesterday that I don't practice english outside the classroom and I was not writing on the blog frecuently and of course I need something to write about.
after posting on the blog yesterday I listen to an evanescence's song and I tried to listen carefully  then I lestened again and then I put the video lyric of the song and I discovered some new words I did not know  and I looked for them on Dictionary.com I discovered different meanings depending on the context as the teacher have told us before, those words are on my mind now :d  
and also it is an amazing song!

Instagram Moment

Hello teacher, Today I want to share something, dew days ago the teacher was explainning us about the ''real life'' and  how you are going to use your second laanguage and  all it is about practicing, he also talked about how important is to read in your second language, you are learning more! so I started today and I read something about ''Signs you're addicted to Instagram'' and it was really funny, they spoke about points that are totally, it was cool and I also learnt about the meaning of words in different contexts and new words. Falling in love with English <3



3. You can’t eat anything without posting it on Instagram first. You will literally slap your friend’s hand away before she even tries to take a fry from your perfectly arranged plate.
4. You've forced strangers to retake a bunch of pics of you and your friends to get the perfect shot. Who cares if you don't know that random guy?

Three!

Hi! hope You are fine, ok  I had a problem! not anymore!!! :D last monday, I had an oral exam and it looked really hard, I studied for it a lot, but I had a problem; there was a sentence that I couldn't pronounce very well and I got worng many times, It was: "We've got these three free tickets to see three...."  I did not know how to pronounce ''these three free'' I mixed up those words when I was pronouncing them, I tried over and over again and I got frustrated, sooo I did this thing, looked for a video on Youtube, of course I know how to look for good references, then finally I learned!! and I am so happy about that then I have got  a good grade.

look who's speaking!

Hello teacher! today I was looking for some information about speech production because I felt really sad when the teacher said to me that I have to get better my pronunciation. I found some videos and the channel is called ''look who's speaking'' they are linguistic major, one of them speaks with British accent and the other one speaks with American accent, It was hard to understand but with some practice I can make it :) and they also speak about:  consonants, stress, accents and other stuff.
they are awesome.

vocabulary.

Hi, teacher.... what do I know about vocabulary? well I realised today that I probably know somethings but I still don't know enough.
I was reading an article about kendall jenner at New York's Fashion Week and even being an article about fashion, there were a lot of unknown words for me, I had to look for the meaning and that was annoying....I think I have to learn and to study because I really want to know about English, I mean I am studying for being a teacher I want to do my best.... Hope to do it! :D

Pronunciation!

Hi Teacher!  today I improve my pronunciation, I think I Love improving the pronunciation.
So I decided to listening somo music, again! and I put an Inna's song ft Pitbull  called ''Good time'' and the part when Pitbull sings is really difficult or at least for me It is. It's like a rap or kind of, I wanted to learn It but I couldn't, I had to do the excersises the people do when they are singers, and I finally could but it doesn't sound as good as him, I let flow my tongue and my mouth.... but anyway, I made it!
this is the video! Enjoy it teacher, I know you will ;)

birtish accent!

ok, recently I've been really busy but today I was bored and I decided to do something to improve my listening, so I put some videos that i used to watch when I was 13 or 14 I don't remember now but I used to watch them and I didn't know anything what they were saying and of course I did not know that they had british accent then! I used to watch them with subtitles but sometimes there were some videos without subs and I just watched them no matter what! i was in love with Mcfly! what can  I say? I was just a kid with no social life aaaand a computer. :3 so I was thinking about that today and I was like... it's been a while.... and now i think i know more about english... let's do it! :d I put one with music in the background! and I got  confused with some stuff but I payed attention, then I put one without backgrounds, (the same video) and I  could understand almost everything what they were saying but i had to follow their lips and pay so much attention.
 I found that their accent it's really hard and they speak really  fast,well at least for me it is, you really need to know about english to undestand them, you have to practice a lot. I think it's a really good way to learn! LOVING ENGLISH.... XOXO

hre's the video

modal verbs

well i realized that i am really bad at using the modal verbs. My partners explained yesterday something about that  and i don´t know if i really don´t know the topic or if i just got confused, i think it was because i was recording the class, the teacher assigned an  activity about the topic and i didn´t know how to fill the gaps ! that was so embarrassed! so i decided to do something about that and i found some explanations about it in my oxford dictionary and now i am a little bit more ready to fill the gaps :D yayy!!  the teacher will explain the topic on Monday! so i am wating. :3

lost at night.

Hey! i was lost at night! but in a different way, i was lost watching the beautiful pictures of the Earth from the International Space  Administration. I´ve read about a project that has the NASA to organize the pictures taken because it´s a hugeeee puzzle, they don´t know which direction the astronaut pointed the camera, they only know where the station was at the time the image was taken, i learned about the crowdsourcing project. i have no idea about that before. The view is amazing but we can also see how high is the light pollution. i love all the NASA´s stuff :3
