My Favorite City


There're many citys in the world, it's a shame that I don't know a lot, so what remains to me it's to talk about the ones that I know.
 My favorite city of all the times (I just know 5 actually) is Pelotas.
 It's such a good place to live, you can seat in beautifull parks and drink a hot 'chimarrĂ£o' without being bothered
 There're such beautifull sights here, and I like the diversity of culture that spread around the city.
 About the weather, a lot of people would complain, but I thinks it's so nice, I mean, there's the summer that is so hot,  and that such cold winter, so we have a bit of each and it please me.
 But if there's one thing that I don't like, it's that there're too many pegeons, and the fact of they can transmite diseases to us, doesn't make things better.
  I really like living here, probably one day I'll move, but I'll never forget this stinky city.

Better ways to be Better




 When the subject is learning, there's no limits, you can always improve your knowledge. But how can I be a better learner?
 There're so many ways to do this, you can try a lot of things, but of course it depends of what you are going to learn.
 So I'm going to talk about learning another language, in this case, English.
 To learn English and most of the languages, you have to be able to understand what people say and talk to them as well, you have to be able to write correctly and read.
 Hearing: There's nothing better than watching a movie or a show that you like, because besides doing something you like, you are also getting used to the language. And taking off the subtitles is a good way to force yourself to understand the story.
 Speaking: This is the hard part I guess, because to you speak well, you need somebody to talk with you and correct you. So I'd say, find someone to talk with who can actually speak English. But if you don't have this privilege, hear things and try to repeat it's a good way to improve your speaking.
 Writing: Making a blog like this is important, because you're putting in practice all the words that you know. And the words that you don't know, you can just search on the internet.
 Reading: It's good at first read something you like, no matter if it's too hard to you, because than you are challenging yourself and you actually end up learning a lot more.
 So, my conclusion of all this is: You can have fun and learn English at the same time.
