Bye,but Not Bye:)

The time run very fast, the semester is ending and the English class too. As I wrote in the beginning, this activity try that students develop the grammar using different topics for discussion. My blog was an open book where I wrote my opinion and in some cases, for example Dad or Mom Come Back!, my own history about the topic that I selected. During my ten posts I noticed that every time was so easier to write and show my ideas, so this activity was perfect for practice my English skills. I recommend this activity for every person who wants develop English techniques because it is very simple and fun. In my opinion I enjoyed every post and all of them have one part of my life. I believe that I did a nice work and I hope that you enjoy my writings and feel free to comment about that in the future. This is not the end because I decided continue with this activity do not matter if my English class is done, so you can continue visiting this blog.

The Magic of the World

The world… The world is the great place that God or the Big Bang gave us and is beautiful for different reasons. In this planet we have different cultures, minds, people, weathers, continents, islands, desert, forests, rivers, seas and oceans, and other things that people can select for live. Everybody is different, and those variations inside the world help us to find our spaces here. We have people that born in Puerto Rico and do not like this culture and they prefer move to Europe or North America and their found the happiness of their families in that areas. In other cases European and North Americans families moved to Puerto Rico because they like the Caribbean weather and puertorrican festivities. We are free to select our country and place where we want live, sometime is very difficult because we have family or our plan of life go to other path, but we can work with that and prepare a plan of study and work in the selected country.

We can select our religion too. Sometimes we think that our religion is the religion of our parents and is incorrect. We select our religion based in the things that we believe, because time change, point of view change and we walk in the life with different opinions. So the next time that somebody tell you that you must select the religion of your parents, you will say NO, because you has own mind and you will take the decisions of your live. Obviously our parents should teach us the things, but also that the decision is ours.

In my case I love Puerto Rico, you can find beautiful beaches around you because is an island, every beach has own magic and personal beauty. Also in Puerto Rico we have pretty forest as Yunque that is a rain forest and others as Guánica forest that is a dry forest. You can see? The world is so perfect that give us two contrary forests to select in the same island. I like my island I love their rivers, their fields and their history, but everyone loves different things and not everybody love Puerto Rico.

As me with my island, you can find your perfect place of live where you would have a family, friends, and learn about the culture. Maybe you born in a cold country, but you love the hot weather so move it! Come on! You are free to do! That is the magic of the world, give us the opportunity to select our space and live with a beautiful smile in ours faces.             

Education System, Problems and Problems

One of the most important areas in every country is the educational system, because is supposed offer every tool that the young people need for achieve success. During a lot years ago the education specifically in Puerto Rico has experienced economic problems that affect the goal of the system. This problem began with people that took funds for personal use, also political parties took money of this office for their use. Some years ago the ex-secretary of this office in Puerto Rico, Victor Fajardo was accused and served jail theft of federal funds. It is a serious problem because they played with the education and the future of these children, some people think that this argument is stupid, but is very true. If the fund exist for maintain strong the educational activities, why people took for other personal use? This money has a mission and don’t is buy personal stuff. The federal agencies are working every day to control the funds diversion and they resolved some cases of that, but are very hard to eliminate because the money buy the mind of people and they think that they can take this money for they self.

Other situation inside the educational system in Puerto Rico is the problem with the employees. Every year we heard on the TV the problem of insufficient personnel in the schools of the country. Fewer teachers, less canteens staff, less janitor personnel and this office try resolve everything the week before begin classes. The system has problems, but also can resolve some with common sense, that not a science, we can prepare a plan and use it.  The community could help also, some people say “forget that, the government is in charge” but we could do something too, it is for the future people of our country, why not? If we can a “new” Puerto Rico, with more professional people, with fewer murderers, people with new ideas and progressive in their minds, we need start now with the origin of the problem. You want a good place to live? Work for that. No wait for the movements of the government, start now and show how resolve the situation.
