LAAAASSST BLOOOOG

Today is a free topic so I'll write about one of the musician that I like the most, it's not my favourite because I don't have one. His name is Jorge Drexler

I discovered Jorge Drexler because of the movie The Motorcycle Diaries, this movie is about the journey of Ernesto "Che" Guevara and his friend Alberto Granado, around Latin America. He wrote the main song of the soundtrack called "Al otro lado del río", at first I only knew this song and for a very long time I didn't look for more songs of Jorge. But one day I went to youtube (I like finding some artists or bands in youtube) and I started to search songs of him.

He's a uruguayan musician and a fun fact he's also a doctor. He was born in Montevideo, and his both parents were doctors, he always was interested in music, he took classes of composition and guitar and while he studied medicine he recorded two albums but only for his country. He has been recorded twelve albums, and this year he released his last called "Bailar en la Cueva". To promote his new album, he did a tour around latin america including Chile. 

I like him because besides of singing, he composes his songs, I think this is amazing in any musician, also his lyrics are like poems with music.

Al otro lado del río - Jorge Drexler

ps: this have been the one and only song in spanish that has won an oscar.

Almost last blog.

Well, actually this semester I didn't enjoy writing in my blog because I did it in the first semester so it wasn't like anything new, also I don't like writing blogs I think that I'm not good at it. On the other hand, this entire semester have been hard for me, my subjects were more difficult than the first semester so I missed plenty of english classes, sometimes for studying for the others subjects or sometimes just for rest or sleep.

I thought that this english level would teach me to translate papers because in some subjects the teacher sends you a paper for a essay that you have to write it based on that paper, but if you don't understand it, you probably get a not very good grade, that's why I thought that this level could teach me to do that because is very useful for all the students. Also, this level could teach us some technical vocabulary about our careers, but I think this would be hard because in each level are about fifteen students of different careers and only one teacher. I like the second module because you can talk with the other classmates about different topics and the whole class doesn't seem so boring.

I think that I need to improve my speaking level because the other skills like writing, reading and listening are not hard for me, I'm not an expert but I understand clearly, my speaking is not bad but I get so nervous when I trying to speak, that's why I need to practice more. I always try to practice my english skills by listening to music, I try to pay attention to the lyrics and understand what they are singing, also I help my cousin with his english lessons because it's hard for him and that makes me to repass some vocabulary and stuff.
