I think to able to take classes in a classroom full of technology is very good, I really like it, because it bring us all the resorces that we need at the moment to learn. In our world is necessary to know about computer and technology, so while we are learning grammar and other staff we are learning and getting familiar with computer and Internet resources. This also help us to study many things in a short period of time, because we can access online in the classroom, so most of the homework and things that we have to do, we can start preparing in our classroom. I wish more classes were like this one, for example I would like to take my Art appreciation class in a classroom like this, because in that way we can practice some of the staff that we have to do in class, and that means less homework to do at home, and means also learning , because I think that if a student have to many things to do he or she is not going to learn anything, because he or she just care to finish not to learn. So, a good way to teach is to be able to give to the student a way that they love what they have to do, and this kind of classrooms help teachers in this way.

If you ask me about one thing that I cannot live without it, I have to say that that thing is my phone, because I use it to talk to my family and friends that I cannot see as often as I want to. My family as most of you know live in Colombia, and I would like to see them every single day, specially my mother, but I cannot, so I have to find other ways to be in contact with them, and that way for me is by phone. I talk to my mother and my family twice per week. I always thought that phone were not good, and I always said that I was not going to be use it a lot if I get one, now I have to say that I was wrong, because is was not until I moved far away from my family that I realise that phones are really useful and in some ways necessaries in our lives specially for our jobs and some emergencies, and for our families as my case. But, sometimes we go to the point that we care a lot about it, you know if we have the high technology and that kind of thing, I hope not to get to that point.

The woman that is next to me in the picture is a really important person in my life. She is Barb Uschan, and she is the person whose heart and house have been open to me since I came to this country. She is not a real relative, or someone that my blood said is your family. But, she is more than that, because she has been giving me all the love and protection that just a mother can give to her children, yeah, she is like a mother for me, she is very special, sweet, funny, generous, and a mother as I said before.
During the time that I have been living here, she has given so much fun and joy to my life and even in the worst situation that I had lived in this country, she had been there.
Now, that I moved to Chicago for my studies we get apart a little bit, I wish I can see her every single day as I did before but that is impossible at least for the moment, but we still so close and important to each other as the first day that we met.

Hi Everyone !!!

This is something about me. I love art and always try to have art around me, pictures, paintings, sculptures, and many others things.
In my last vacations I went to Disneyland and I got this caricature done. It is great and expresses many things about me, one of them I already told you: art .But, can you noticed another one?
If you were thinking that I like or practice skateboarding, let me tell you, you are wrong because I even do not like it, but the real important thing and what this caricature shows about me is that I always happy and try smile to everyone, also that I love adventure and try new things, that is why I chose this design at the moment to have the caricature done.

I hope you like this caricature, I did not make it, but it is me.
