Four teachers :s

I haven't had too many teachers at the same time in my life. I think this semester was crazy. The organization of the EAP 1 was terrible. The administration of this program offered us a high level course, but I don't think it is the same they promised us at the beginning. I don't understand why they asked us to buy books with subjects that we won't cover at all. If we have to cover the most important things, the books are suppossed to content that and I would have less weight in my bagpack. However, I think everything is important to learn, every detail, especially in english that is not our first language. I think we were a kind of experiment for them without taking care of our neccesities. How it could be possible to start somenthing without the main tools to work. Even though, Scott is an excellent teacher he didn't start with us at first. It would have been much better because we would have been able to finish everything, but now he is leaving and we don't have any hope to learn completly by the same way of teaching. I really feel such I wasted my time and my money except the time Scott was teaching us. I am sure that by the next month I will hear that they bring Michael Jackson to teach us English.

Life's Problems

I think problems are a neccesity in our life because we can learn a lot of things from them. We can prevent some of them by doing good things;however, there are some they cannot be avoid because they were created to make you a better person. Bad things that you did come to you again. In addition, the more difficult the problem is the more satisfaction you obtain at the end when it is over . For example, It is the same taking choices about something because we are get to used to take the easier way all the time, yet in my opinion when you fight for that you get better results because you put your efforts on it. The most difficult things in life are these ones you think you cannot do because you feel scared and you don't trust yourself. I think our mind is the most powerful thing that helps us, but at the same time destroy us. when we are able to face problems and solve them you will feel relieve and more mature, so that the next time it will be easier to handle a similar situation.

My Friends

I would like to talk about my friends because I think they are an important part of my life. I have met a lot of people in my life, but that is really strange because I am not a sociable person. I like to do things by myself, but at the same time I like to share my free time with others. People who are always there to help me and make me feel happy. My friends are that kind of special people who tries to cheer up and smile at me all the time. I have had friends since they started a conversation with me, otherwise I wouldn't have talked to them. I am really glad to have these friends because I have enjoyed a lot being with them any time. We have done many things together, especially with a friend that I met 12 years ago. I met her at school. At first we weren't good friends, actually she didn't like me, but now it is a diffrent story. I also met a japanese girl at the ESL program in Calgary and I really consider her a real friend. I have learned a lot of thing from her and about her culture. Mainly my friends are male, I prefer to have male friends because I haven't had problems with them in contrast to female friends. Female friends always are trying to gossip about personal things. I don't like to hear this things from anybody because it really bugs me. I have never expected to hear bad things from my male friends because it is not common they do it. I grew up with 5 boys maybe for this reason I am used to be with male more than female.

Communication issues

I think speaking in public is a really difficult job because everybody is looking at you so, every time before I have to speak in a presentation I get very nervous like many people in the world, but right away I start speaking I feel more comfortable. I like to see different faces while I am speaking; however, it is sometimes tricky because I lose my concentration on what I am doing. I need to work on my presentation several days before to expose it; otherwise I don't feel secure at the right moment. When I am in the opposite side and I just have to listen and looking at people who is speaking I think I always observe more than listen to them because the first impression come from my eyes. In spite of observing is more entertaining to me I like listening as well.
