As every person has a story that changes the course of events, the collage alterns my attitude from an anxious and shy one, to a sociable person. Not only making friends, but also giving presentations has made me open-minded. Although there were a massive number of challenges, we have learned how to overcome obstacles. I achieved successes because of my determination. So to be a successful person , you should face your problems."

Candelaria is the oldest neighborhood in Bogotá, Colombia. Its houses have a Colonial style, it's like traveling to the past. It's the historical center of the capital. There are many shops and restaurants, but they all have a mystical style. You never know what's inside until you go in. You could surprised by them.
I went there with my husband because we were looking for a good restaurant to have lunch. We were shocked when we entered one, it was like 'old luxury'. We felt like a king and a queen. Its furniture looked like it belonged to an old castle. I would like to go there again, but there are so many places! I don't know what we'll discover next time.

In México we have the superstition that if you pass down a ladder, it could be any ladder, you will have bad luck. So, I see a lot of people to avoid passing down ladders and it's something funny, because my rational side says to me that that superstition is nonesense, but I have another side that says to me that it's better to not pass down. I don't know if this superstition exists in another places, I have the feeling that this is worldwide.

「ソニック・ザ・ヘッジホッグ3」というゲームはスペシャルステージで嘘ついたことを今でも偲ぶ。あの地面はチェッカーボード模様があったけど、球体にあんな模様を描くのは位相幾何学に無理だ。ようするに、ソニックの歩む立体は円環面だということだ。
同様に、ロールプレイングゲームには、厳密に言えば、ワールド・マップが殆どの場合に円環面の射影だ。然もなくば、飛行船などが縦横に巻き付けられないことになる。
こうして、実在の地球は平面に地図をきっちり描くのは無理だ。そういうわけで、メルカトル図法の人気を分かっている。でも、注目すべき点はメルカトル図法の歪みがグローバル・ノースを引き立てるということである。そのせいで第一世界に住んでいる人から見れば、自分の地域以外の頓着を忘れやすくなるみたいかな。

Dzisjai zdecydowałem, że przyszedł czas kiedy muszę rozpoczać pisać i mówić po językam, który się uczę. Czuję się, że rozumię dużo kiedy czytam albo słucham coś, ale to dziwne, że nie dam sobie rady do jakieś rozmowy. Uczyć się jakieś język fajnej, kiedy możesz wyrażić sobie. Jestem szczęśliwy, że znajledzłem ten stronku, gdzie ludzie moge pisać coś i dostawać korrektywy. A po pisanie, możesz równiesz czytać teksty innych ludziej i pomagać im w takim trudnym dziele jak uczenie języków! Jedno działo słuhać i czytać, ale absolutne inne działo zignorować strach przed ludzimi i sam sobie, i dać sobie rady do wyrażenia swoich myślej.

Como me estoy haciendo vieja, el tiempo que paso con mi familia extendida es algo más como un tesoro. La gente que han sido una constante en mi vida, no van a estar allá toda la vida, así es son las cosas. Con cada año comprendo más que todas las cosas son temporales.
Hoy mi tia pase por mi casa, nos paseamos el tiempo chismeando, y por suerte mis galletas ( que por cierto, son la receta que me enseñe una tía del otro lado de la familia) eran recién salidas del horno. Así que como buenas inglesas tomábamos té en familia.
No siempre vamos a estar, momentos así, banales, normales son los que recordamos y son la presencia de personas especiales en nuestras vidas. Los momentos más valiosos no son lo más grandes o más extremos, son la felicidad y momentos compartidos dia a dia.

Ich bin zurück.
Ich war erschopft und bräuchte eine lange Pause, aber ich habe nicht das Lernen aufgehört. Ich meine, die Vorbereitung auf die Prüfung.
Ich habe versucht, viele Sachen gleichzeitig zu machen, aber am Ende konnte ich nicht mehr. Ich besuchte ein B2-C1 Deutschkurs, hatte ich wöchentlich eine Stunde Privatunterricht und versuchte ich jeden Tag etwas auf Deutsch zu schreiben und zu hören (z.B. Podcasts). Da ich mich für eine Prüfung vorbereite, lernte ich jeden Tag fünf bis sechs Stunden und machte ich wöchentlich eine Stunde Simulation mit Experten. Ob das nicht genung wäre, müsste ich mich um meinen Aufenhaltstitel, der bis 15.10 gültig ist und um die Arbeitbeantragung gekümmert.
Obwohl ich immer noch für die Püfung vorbereite, versuche ich mich nicht zu übertreiben. Ich habe beispielweise das B2-C1 Deutschkurs pausiert.

In Colombia, there are many superstitions that people still believe in. For example, some walk around the block with a suitcase on New Year’s Eve to attract travel, wear yellow underwear for good luck, or put lentils in their pockets to bring money. Others say that if someone sweeps your feet with a broom, you’ll never get married, and that opening an umbrella inside the house brings bad luck. Some also believe that a black butterfly means death is near, and that whistling at night calls evil spirits. I’ve met people who really believe in them, but it’s easy for me to ignore these things. Nobody forces you to believe them, but you’ll always hear them.

In Colombia, there's a proverb that says 'Every pig has its December', which means that sooner or later everybody faces the consequences of their actions. This saying comes from the Colombian custom of killing a pig in December for celebrations, and it's used humorously to say that even if someone seems to get away with it, their time will come.

前日で箱根に行ってからこの日では屋内のところへ行こうと思っています。だから、東京国立博物館に行くことにしまして地下鉄で上野に行った。
博物館に入るようにまず上野公園が越えないといけませんでしたと、美しい公園でした。そこでアイスを食べるようにしばらくたたずみました(桜の味は食べたことがありません!美味しかった!)が、博物館でたくさんの時がありたかったので、早く越えました。
博物館は素晴らしかった!多い物を見まして全部のとっても面白い!私のお気に入りの展示は刀(とても鋭い!)と着物(とても綺麗!)と浮世絵(とても綺麗も!)と埴輪(とても面白い!)けど、全ての展示物は本当に面白くて博物館で長い時がいました。私は博物館の中でとても遅いので、全部の展示が見るできませんでしたけど、大半の物を見まして楽しみました!
博物館が閉まってから公園へ戻りましたと喫茶店でおやつにパンケーキを食べました。それから、暗いになりました時で博物館の辺りの寺が傍らに歩きましたと公園が見て回りました。暗くて一人で上野東照宮は素敵でしたと「Toilet Museum」は可笑しくて以外!
暗すぎるになりました時で公園を出ましたと、晩御飯を食べるように天ぷらのレストランのそばに行きました。天丼はとっても美味しかった!

I think it depends. If it's a job that gives me enough money to invest or build my own projects, I don't mind feeling a bit uncomfortable for a while. But there are moral limits, because some jobs pay really well but they involve your intimacy or activities I never do.
I have also lived the other side. I used to be a teacher, and I loved it, but the low salary, stress, and all the responsibilities made me left it. I had my dream job, but it was badly paid and emotionally exhausting. So, for me, satisfaction is not just about money or love, it's about balance and peace that it left you at the final of the day.

It's a difficult question - it's like choosing between eating and breathing.
They say, "Do what you enjoy and you will never work a day in your life."
I think it's crap because I see the difference between rest and work.
First things first, let's talk about criteria for rest:
- you don't take any responsibility
- you do something to enjoy the process, not to get a result
- nobody, including yourself, judges what you are doing.
See? Work is the complete opposite. So work will never feel like rest. Moreover, as a person who worked as an administrator, librarian, and journalist (it didn't last long but still) before becoming a developer, I can say that it doesn't matter how much you're paid. Expectations that you will do your best and even more are everywhere. I also notice that the lower the salary, the higher the requirements and the worse the conditions.
I'd rather work hard for enough money and spend it on my health, family, and hobbies than work hard for peanuts.
Don't get me wrong, I know how it feels to hate your job. When I worked as an administrator, I wanted to get drunk every day even though I don't drink at all. The thought that I had to get out of there kept me going, so I spent time learning programming.
When I worked as a librarian, my colleagues tried to bully me. They hated me and were scared of me at the same time, and I still don't understand why. Thoughts of programming and my knowledge saved me.
Additionally, much depends on your perception. As I'm a pessimist, I will always find something to complain about. If complaints about hard work were unavoidable, I would choose a well-paid job.
By the way, today was much easier than yesterday. My colleague allowed me to refactor the script and gave me an idea of how to make it right, so I finished the task.😁

*I want only to be fluent and understandable (not perfect, not academic).
Living in another country has made me to grow a lot. I have my husband, and I'm so glad for share my life with him, but sometimes I notice that love doesn't replace the need of having a friend to talk other things, laugh without planning it, or simply share the day to day. It's not that I feel lonely, but I miss that real and soft connection with somebody.
Over years, I have understood that having friends as an adult is hard. It's not about spending time, but about finding real connections, with people with whom you can be yourself without making a lot of effort. Does this happen to you too? How do you build new friendships as adults?

Es gibt ein sehr übliches Sprichwort im Russischen, das bei vielen Lernenden Verwunderung erregt: блин (Pfannkuchen). Es wird oft im Alltag als einen harmlosen Ersatz fürs vulgäre Schimpfwort „блять” verwendet, um Emotionen wie Zorn, Schmerz oder Enttäuschung auszudrücken. Da die ersten zwei Buchstaben gleich sind, ähneln diese Wörter den englischen „Hell“ und „Heck“ sehr und können dadurch leicht eingeprägt sein.

Je prends le transport en commun.
J'attends le bus près de ma maison. Il n'y a pas beaucoup de passagers.
Le bus arrive et nous montons tous dedans.
Le bus est parti à l'heure, ce n'est pas du tout comme d'habitude.
On s'attend que les bus soient toujours en retard.
Malheureusement, on s'y est habitués.
Quelques secondes sont passées et soudainement, le bus s'arrête.
Le chauffeur ne dit rien. Il essaye de redémarrer le moteur.
Nous, les passagers, on attendait que le bus reprenne la route dès que possible.
Le chauffeur essaye une autre fois. Ça marche ! On y va !
Malgré tout ça, je suis arrivé 5 minutes en retard là - où ma femme m'attendais.
Je ne m'attendais pas à ce que ma femme ait été tant en colère contre moi.
