A little lion

I watched on TV once a story about a little lion that lived in Africa with his parents. He was a mischievous and playful lion, he didn't want to hunt animals, he only wanted to play and dance. His dad wanted desperately that the lion knew how to hunt. 

One day, the little lion, in a lesson of his father, was set on something moving in the tall grass and he started to follow it until the limits of the reserve where traffickers of exotic animals captured him. They put him on a pickup truck and the dad started to follow them behind, regrettably he couldn’t reach them. 

Luckly, on the way there was a bump and the box where the little lion was, fell out from the truck towards a river that summons on the sea, after days this box arrived in new York where the persons found him and take him to the zoo where he met other animals that turn into his friends. 

When they grew up, they run out from the zoo and they traveled to Africa where this little lion, now a big one, was reunited with his parents after all this years. They were so happy that they celebrate with a party in the savannah!

An amazing animal!!!

How can it be possible that an animal has a duck bill, otter feet and body and a beavertail at the same time?! The platypus can! This mammal lives principally in the east of Australia.

I think that this animal is amazing and fascinating! It is a mixture of animals: ducks, otter and beavers. They are mammals but they can put eggs instead of live young and the males are poisonous in their back feet, this feature is unusual in the mammals because it doesn’t exist in the other species of this class (mammals). The females don’t have nipples to feed the newborns, but they have a kind of grooves in the abdominal area where the milk gets out. They have less olfactory receptors than the rest of the mammals, but they can smell under water.

In general this animal is nocturne, but a lot of times he is seen during the cloudy days, they used to live in rivers and riparian zones where is food to eat and sand to rest and nest, also they are carnivorous and eat insect larvae, prawns of sweet water and river crabs.

The mouth of this animal is below of the beak, unlike birds, and at the peak are the nostrils. When this animal born, they came with teeth, but they lost them when the animal leaves the den. The adults have a kind of cartilaginous plates that grind the food.

I think that this animal is wonderful, they have a lot of particular characteristics that the rest of mammals doesn't have, I think that they are really cute and beautiful, I would like to have one in my house!! hahahaha

The Upcoming Summer

If I make some plans for the summer? The answer is yes! My family and I are hoping go to the same place of all years: go camping in the south of Chile. That place is wonderful and we can go anywhere from there, I hope that we can go to Chiloe again or to Bariloche some days. Maybe we won’t go to other places, but I don’t care, if I stay there it would be so nice.

My parents and I will go camping, friends of the family said that they will go too. The group is made up of approximately 20 persons. We are a very big group.

My dad, last year, bought a kayak and the year before a boat, so I will go kayaking to the lake of the camp and I will go fishing with my dad in the evening some days. I will spend some time with my friends of there in the night and during the day I will be with my family. Before lunch, we are going to play volleyball on the field of the place, we do groups and compete for who will wash the dishes (and this are a lot of dishes).

On my return, maybe I will go with my university friends to the beach or to the country with my school friends, or I will do both trips if I can.

There is a possibility that I will go in January to community work for the university during a couple of weeks. This will help me in the university the next year.

So that is what I hope to do in my summer holidays and I can’t wait to do these trips and have fun with my family and friends! 

A photograph I like

I don't know who took this photo, maybe was my mom, but in it appears my dad and I, probably it was taken in 1996 or 1997 when I was 4 years old. The van behind was the first car that my dad bought, it was a Ford Aerostar, it is one of my favourite cars that we've had because it was so big and comfortable. We had this van during many years, 7 years, It arrive at home when my middle sister was born. During the next years, each one appropiated of one seat, once, my sister wanted to sit in mine, and I was angry so I decided to put my name in the back of it, and my sister delated with my dad, he got mad and he punished to me. Now, we always remember this and laugh a lot, the things that I do when I was a little girl. 

Another thing that I like about this photo, is that my dad appears in it, he is one of my favourite person in the world. We did a lot of journeys in this van, maybe we don't have it now, but I keep a lot of amazing memories and moments that we did in it. 

A skill I admire

The ability that I admire is acting, I envy the people who can act well, they are fortunate to have this skill. I am not good in it, the people can know that what I do or talk is not true. I get nervous, my face turn in red, my hands trumble, I have cold sweat and I stutter a lot.

When I have to act, I can do, but I didn’t do well.Have this ability in the daily life can give a range of possibilities, you can lie, maybe you can do a joke to a friend and you can be part of a company of theater for example. This ability maybe can help me when I have to expose at the university or maybe when I have to talk in front of a lot of people, I really have problems with this.I hope that someday I can develop this skill, I didn’t expect be an actress, but have this ability would makes me very happy. 

My Dream Job

My Dream Job is what I study, Dentistry, It’s a major that full my heart of happiness and excitement, this career implies a lot of manual skills, that fortunately I have, and a lot of study too, I will have to research always about new knowledges that all the days appears in the internet. Probably I will work in a box in a clinic, but it doesn’t matter because I would do what I love. The bonus of work like a dentist is that I will have a “high” pay, so I could travel and buy things that I want.

But if I choose another dream job, It would be a photographer of the national geography magazine. I would travel a lot around the world, the directors say to me "Samanta, go to Africa to photograph lions" and I would love to go there. I know that probably this job could carry dangers and time away from my family and friends, but I could learn about of a lot of cultures and know a lot of places, that if I would be a dentist I couldn’t meet. Most of the time I’ll be outdoor in the nature seeing animals and beautiful landscapes, I would enjoy being outside, breathing fresh air, seeing new animals and meeting new people.

Maybe this jobs are different, but I would love if I can do both, work as a dentist and travel around the world. 

My friends

My friends are the persons that I choose to be part of my family. They are from different places or from diferents moments of my life, but all have one thing in common: they are important to me. 

Through all my life I have known a lot of people, that for differents reasons they are important in my life. They help me to have good days, they cheered me when I need and they love me for who I am.

There are some persons that I have to mention, the first is one of my best friends. She is my friend since I was a little girl because she is the daughter of the best friend of my mom, so we have lived a lot of experiences, she is like my mom sometimes and my sister the most of the time, maybe we don´t talk all the days, but I know that she is there when I need someone to talk. I also have to mention my friends from the high school, I knew them in 2007 and we´re still be friends, we get together almost all the weekends and most of the time I have a really good time, they are funny and very nice, I am very happy to be her friend. The last one that I have to mention are my friends of the university, the mayority of them I knew in bachillerato, among them are my other best friend, she is different from me in many aspects, but she is so important daily, I talk all the days with her and she knows how to lifts my spirits when I am sad. 

So, They are so differents from me but I love them so much, I know that someday we will take differents ways, but I hope have them in my life to see them grow and turn into wonderful persons.
