Music!

This is something that really means a lot to me. Since I was 15, music has been one of the thing that has change my life, it changes it until now. It makes me feel a lot of things, depending of the kind of music of course. When I was a teenager, I love heavy metal, it made me feel so alive and energetic that I had to spend that energy in something, then I started to play the drums, and it made feel so free, I loved that sensation.Then, as I was growing up, I started to get interested in the rock of the 70's, because it was very relaxing and it made me fly. Nowadays, my tastes in music has change. Now I like to listen rock and pop of the 80's, because , the feeling i had about it, is something in the middle of what a feel with heavy metal and rock of the 70's. During all that time, since I started to play the drums, I tastes in music have influenced what I played with my bands. First, we hace a tribute band to Metallica, then I had a tribute band to Pink Floyd, then we started to create our own music, but it was different to all what I've done before.

My boyfriend introduced me a band that I really like now called Journey, but what I like the most is the drummer, Deen Castronovo. I have to say he is one of my favourites drummers in the world. Here I leave you guys a video where Deen also sings. He has everything :)

bilingualism

When I started to  search about what bilingualism is, there were a ton of info on internet,  of course, I didn't read a thing, so I will keep my idea of what bilingualism is; the capacity of speak, read, listen and write two different languages, as simple as that.
Apart of English, there are another idioms I would like to learn, for example, Italian and German, but I think it is too much for me, even thou there are relation between Spanish and Italian, and German and English, so they would be easy to learn. In any case, I have to get focus on English, cause is my priority.
I once had an experience has a translator, well in that case, as an intrpret, it was difficult because it was my first time, so I was nervous. I remember when the spanish speaker was talking, I was trying to keep the ideas on mi mind and find the proper word in English, but meanwhile I was forgeting the other ideas, everything was a mess, I didn't knew what to say. At the end, I just said  some sentences, and nothing else. I was so ashamed and uncomfortable. I didn't knew what to do.

This is a video I want to share with all fo you guys, If there is a language we all know, is the music language. This is Bobby Mcferring with an interesting experiment. Enjoy!

Writing

Here I am, with my classmates in class. Every Wesnesday I'm going to be here writing about ... I don't know, writing stuff.
Even if I sometimes find it boring, I like it. The last year we used to use handout every class and it was dull, but to make a blog is more entertaining, and we can use it for other kind of purposes, I hope so. So if every class is going to be like this one, I promise I will come to class every Wednesday! at least in the afternoons ;)
I hope to learn a lot of things about the language in this course, couse' there are a ton of things I have no idea, and will be useful for the other courses.
I also want to know more about the methods to teach grammar, it is something I would like to teach in the future.
