During this semester we were able to elaborate a lot of writing that were very consistent and enough useful to create narrative texts, essays, short stories, etc. but all of this had a process before, step by step is the main rule to write, therefore we used brainstorm or pre-writing that are the previous work to the final writing, and then when we were too sure about our work we could do the final writing. In a summary this was the process for the writing that helped us to elaborate efficient works.
If I had to mention how was my experience in the subject and all of works that I did for this I would say that was great and useful for me because now I able to write about a lot of things that before I couldn’t because I didn’t have the tools or knowledge. I made a lot of progress in my way to write because now I have a formula to write is not just write is do a process before your ideas are together and are coherent.
Also we could do group of work that was an experience interesting, funny and productive, we saw the different ways of writing of our classmates and could learnt of them.
Well about my weaknesses and strengths I would say that there are a lot of things I need to improve my grammar have improved but I have mistakes. The organization of my ideas is difficult but also has improved. Punctuation is one of my weaknesses and also is the elaboration of the main ideas to my essays but I think that I have made a lot of progress in this. I am a person who is very disorganized to write but this is the main aim of this subject improve the way and know how to write and reading and composition develop the abilities in the readings and writing of a foreign language that we are studying.
Dreams are the representation of our lives; everybody sleeps because we need some rest by the hard day but, what happens when close our eyes and start our travel Howard other World?
Probably good dreams and bad dreams want to say something about yourself and many people make suggestion about what should be the meaning of the dreams, for example when you dream about money, the death of relatives, when you broken teeth, etc.
If I had to tell about my dreams I would say that the most interesting of them are not many you can count with fingers but they were important in my state of mind, because dreams are very strange and shocking more often very different about the reality, then it make you feel in a desperate way if you had dreams like to see blood, people who are dying, monsters or the end of the world but on other hand there are dreams that make you feel good because they are funny, there are cute animals, people smiling, you can have all the things that you want in the reality, dream with people that are stars but stay with you , wonderful things.
But then what are the dreams? I think that they are the product of our daily life, our experiences in the day, people who see or not see things we see in the streets or watch in TV, things we listen or talking during the day. Many things can be the consequence of the dreams, because our mind reflects some aspects of our lives and also our states of mind. I think that is the real meaning of the dreams
DREAMS: MY STATE OF MIND DRAFT
· We need to sleep because of the hard day that we lived.
· Usually I don’t remember what my dreams are about, but when I can remember then I feel strange, often my dreams are very ordinary like if I was in a real situation.
· Strange dreams that I can remember could be about people died, the end of the world, blood and other things.
· Good dreams that I had had are about funny things, sometimes I woke up smiling maybe because I dreamt about having money or be with my favourite stars, or be with people that I haven’t seen.
· I think that dreams are product of my daily life, my experiences in the day, things that I saw in the streets or people with whom I spoke.
DREAMS: MY STATE OF MIND REFLECTION
This time we wrote an essay where we could choose the topic about dreams or a place in the past where we would have preferred to birth. Well, I decided to write about dreams I thought that it could be very interesting and easier talking about my own dreams in an essay. So I decided to do a brainstorm with different things that I considered to note in my final essay, when I finished my brainstorm I had to put in order my ideas but when I was writing this ended up been more difficult because I couldn’t organized my thoughts in a consistent way. My essay lacked the main topic, the body paragraph, and the creation a new topic. I think this was one of the most difficult writings that I had during this semester.
Once upon a time in a big city there was a little house that was different of the others, this house was very old and nobody lived there or that people thought.
The smith’s had decided to move to the old house because of the business. They were a family of four members: the father, the mother, John (the boy) and Lilly (the little girl).
Lilly was 8 years old, she has got blond curly hear and has a fair complexion. She was very normal in appearance but she was very strange and special, she always was reading books about the magic, fairies, witches, vampires and ghosts. But she had a problem to get friends because she didn’t like play rude sports, and so nobody wanted to be her friend, child were very cruel to her, they said: “Lilly is mad, she is strange, nobody can trust on her”.
In this occasion Lilly wanted to change the situation, she didn’t want to be shy, pessimistic or strange to the others kids, she had decided to change her life in this new place, in this new house, in this new neighbourhood, so she had to make a plan. When she arrived at her new bedroom she got rid of all her things about magic dreams and started to do physical exercises that she considered important to play with kids, she didn’t know how to move her body, so exercises like run, jog were very difficult to her, she tried hard, but her brother was very impolite with her. One night when Lilly was doing exercises in her bedroom; he appeared suddenly with an ugly mask making horrible sounds in the door, so he gets to frightened her to death and she start to cry noisily, and when their parents saw this situation, John got to be punished. John was very angry and he said: “Lilly is a silly girl; she always is crying like a baby, she never has got friends”. The mother sent John to his bedroom and said: “don’t believe, your brother is a boy, he didn’t know what he is speaking”. Then she got out.
But Lilly was very sad again, in that bedroom, she was alone nobody knew all of things that she was doing to be a friendly person, nobody.
Suddenly she heard a sound in her closet like a voice. She thought that it was her brother again but remembered that he was in his bedroom. “What is it?” she said. “If someone be there, please get out” nobody replied. She opens the closet and she feels the cold passing on her face like a gust of wind and when it finished, someone talk to her behind: “My name is Harry and he is Holly, do you want to be our friend?”
She was really surprised but happy: “do you want to be my friends” she asked again. “Yes, we want to be your friend do you want?” Lilly couldn’t believe it; someone wanted to be her friend. “Yes! I want thanks”.
Holly and Harry turned Lilly in a friendly girl, they always was talking, playing and making funny things, things that Lilly can’t do alone. Sometimes her parents heard that Lilly spoke alone in her bedroom and they were very worried about it but Lilly seemed to be happier that time that all the rest of her life.
One day Lilly was very excited and when she went in her bedroom she started to tell Holly and Harry about something very interesting and important to her, “I have got a friend in the school, she is very nice”. When she saw the faces of her friends she felt confused. “Aren’t you happy?” they replied “don’t worry we are very happy for you.” And she starts to smile.
That night Holly started to talk to Harry: “Now its time, we did a good action, we must go” said in a sad way. “I don’t want to go without her, she is our friend I want to stay with her” Harry replied “But you know we can’t stay, we had a mission but now it is finished, tomorrow we must to tell Lilly the truth. We are ghosts”.
The next day when Lilly come in to the bedroom and was speaking about her new friend, she saw strange faces on her friends. “What happens? Something is wrong?” Harry decided to talk. “We must say you something important” he said in bad way “What is it?” she was worried. “We must go” said harry and she was surprised “why are you angry? It’s because I have a new friend?” she was crying “No, we are happy because you are happy” start holly “but there is something that we didn’t say to you, it’s a secret. We lived in this house long time ago; we were alone until that you arrived. We were very happy but it can’t be forever, we had to do a good action to go…” now harry speak to her “long time ago when we were with our parents we get to be sick and nobody could cure us, so we died” Lilly was very surprised but she was hearing the story “so, we are ghosts and we had a mission to do a good action before leave this world. When you were alone we wanted to be with you and we were your friend, you are very important to us but you have got a new friend, so we don’t have more to do for you, I’m very sad but happy in the same time”.
Suddenly appeared a light in the sky “we must go harry” said holly while Lilly was crying “we love you Lilly, you must be happy” Lilly crying in a desperate way but happy “I love you thanks for all, I’m very happy, thanks!” then they disappeared.
Since that day Lilly because of the kids ghosts got a lot of friends, because she knew for they what friendship was. She was very grateful to them.

HAUNTED HOUSE MAKE A SECRET REFLECTION
About the narrative story haunted house make a secret was a short story very interesting to do. When I decide to write about it at the beginning I couldn’t decide what exactly write about. I wanted to narrate a story that was significant and caused a feeling.
When I had the main idea of my narrative work I read “the elements of a story” and read also some short stories in the handout like “the little red riding hood” and “the little girl a the wolf”. Then I had some ideas about organized my story, the characters, settings, the way and the time to write, and the theme and moral topic.
Then I could do a draft narrating all the story about my characters and the strange situation that they live.
The troubles that I had with my story was mainly the organization of this and the grammar, but in the draft and in the final writing I did a lot of corrections that I could notice and I could improve it. I always have complications about put in order my ideas but with the short story that we read I had more exercise to do it best.
Once upon a time in a quiet and comfortable place, there were three happy friends: a cat who very grumpy, brave and loving with her friends. Piglet who was very shy and pessimistic but friendly; and o mole who was a dreamer, timid and dancer.
They met at the forest while they studied different animal’s languages in the some class. I’m the first year they did a lot of crazy things together. They always trusted each other; but all of them had secrets to keep about their feelings.
Cat always chatted on internet with a mysterious wolf. Cat met him and she was completely I’m in love with him, but she did not tell it to her friends. One day the wolf asked her to get with him. She felt so scared about that idea and when wolf was I’m another room she escaped. Wolf followed her and he told her that he loved her very much and he wonted to he with her all the life so she agreed to get marriage with him.
On the other hand piglets had a shame full secret. One day after be with his friends, piglet was sitting near the river. Suddenly appeared a little white bunny then the piglet felt very emotional and his heart was beating fast, it was a new felling for the little piglet. Piglet wonted ugly and was not able to he meet to the bunny. He did not say this secret to his friends.
When the piglet had enough courage to face the bunny and he said his first woods to the bunny, he felt very related and happy.
The bunny was hind, nice and lovable. I’m that moment the piglet was not tense, but embarrassed, because he was really in love with her but the bunny also felt a lot of love for the piglet.
Since that day they are always playing and speaking about chocolates. The mole had a secret too. She fell in love with a human was very special for her because one day there was hunkering in the forest and the people tried to hunt her, but they could not do it because a human saved her. The human was very worried about animal’s health and for that reason the mole felt a frenzy love for him, she thought. That it was not important that he was a human and she thought that the human was her twin soul, but she was in a mistake because he never looked liked that.
Those three happy friends meet in the forest, and they were very different like thinking, feelings and custom, but ever was something that joined them and shore part of their lives.
In that moment Alice woke up and she realized that al had been a dream she fell a little disappointed, but very happy, because she had a beautiful and funny dream about romance, animal’s and forest. She was very exited “this will be a new and great day!” she thought and now ill see beautiful side of life, because the animal’s that I had in my dream thought me about the feelings, friendship, courage and love “yes, this was a dream that I had when I was 5 years old, in that moment I did not understand the meaning, but now that I am is rears old I think that the dream means the friendships soul. I can realise that I am not alone and spike of being different in appearance or thought, there is ever something that makes that people are joined and that there are beautiful people waiting to find you.
The End~
ALICE'S DREAM REFLECTION
It was a short story that I did with my class mates was an activity in group and it was very interesting also funny.
We could see the imagination that we used for this short story, each one develop one character in the story and did a short narration about the own character.
At the beginning we couldn’t organize our thoughts very well and “the end” was very difficult to do. After a long time we could decide the end but before each one prepared the end and then we chose the end more interesting and funny. We put it in order the actions in the narration and it was very nice to do.
About the grammar and the technical process was more easy to everyone check the mistakes and considered the points of view of our follows their mistakes and our mistakes and work in group was more efficient.
I think that this narration has been one the best that I had done.
