Soo... Hi ! =) I'm Belen and this is my blog............................ yeah.
.....then... I don't know what else to write =P je...
It's very spooky to be in this Xlingo "application" called Blog... really =P I have never written any kind of stuff like this before... for anyone to see, I mean. But I guess that if I don't worry so much about it I'll get along with it fine ;)
And so, my english has been built basically thanks to 6 years of school classes... like, in junior high and high school, along with the normal subjects, nothing very very pro, I mean ;) and also because of music and movies and books in english ;) it's not perfect, of course, I reckon that ;) sometimes I make up words and phrases of my own... sometimes mixed with a toutch of spanish (so funny and embarassing) =P and sometimes I have a hard time with the past tense =$ ohh... I remember some year back in high school when I was at my best in english =_( I used to make this loooooooong and complicated essays and book reports and all kind of writings for school... oh, I miss those times =P but maybe some of that knowledge remains in my head... if not, I wouldn't be writing this, right? =P =P =P
One of the things that I have to improve is... that I have to get used to use a dictionary!!! Por Dios!!! because I think I lose time looking for words I don't know how to write and then I write them just the way I believe they look better... or sound better =P no good, no good... advice for anyone who wants to listen... always use a dictionary... dictionaries are our friends ;)
Then... a year ago, I decided I wanted to study Italian =D =D my other options were french or japanese... but acording to my dreamy childhood plan, first I needed to study portuguese first, then italian, then french, then german, then greek, then latin, then japanese, then esperanto............................... yes, so =P =P I kind of liked the plan, but there is no place in my city where they teach portuguese... so second in my list was italian =P... I could have choosen any of the other two.. and also german, really, I'm not so rigid about it =P but I just felt like it would be fun... and Iit was, reaaaally!!! I love italian... I love learning a third language... I love the way it's pronounced and they way its written and everything =D But of course nothing is just like a ride at the park =P jaja... I have problems sometimes with the huge quantity of verb forms -_-' very similar to spanish in number and complexity... but I'm excited about it =D I want to learn even more!! yay!! =) and well, I have also watched some movies in italian (IL POSTINO, is great XD) and been listening to some music in italian too... so, I'm getting on my way now ;)
And as for spanish....... well. I've been speaking spanish since... a long time, I presume =P jaja... I wished I remembered how I learned it =P and I wish I had more fun in the proccess too!!! =D just kidding -_-' But, for real, I love my language... yes, MY language =P because even when it's spanish, well, I suppose every one of us tailors it's native language the way we like the most... using weird phrases and other things like that, so... I hope I could do that with any language that I learn... I mean, to learn it sooo well, that in the past of time I can use it the way I like the most, like if I was using it since always =D but, I don't mean like braking every rule or using bad words or whatever, I hate it =P just having fun with languages, that's my ultimate goal =)
Hey! if someone read until this part....... I'm very sorry =P XD XD jaja... no, I'm not sorry =P really.... if anyone thought it was interesting or whatever, good ;) I kinda suddenly began to write my story with languages =P and let me tell everyone that I'm very interested in people's own story with languages..... I'm always asking "why did you learned this? and why do you want to learn this other?" ans like that -_-' -_-', I guess that's why I wrote mine... well, I don't know really. I better make some flashcards..... they help other people and have a useful purpose.
=P
Have a nice day everyone. Nos vemos y sigan estudiando =)
Belen.
