Block 3

Question:

If you have the opportunity to travel, which place would you choose: At the beach, In the Mountains or In the City.

What are you going to do for your next vacation? What things do you need to do before a trip? Share your ideas.

I would travel to a place in the mountains because the air is cleaner than the city and I love surrounded by nature.

For my next vacation I've thought about going to Cajamarca because the environment is more natural. Actually, I like to try all types of cheese that is produced there. Especially queso mantecoso because I don’t have re-tested that for several years and I would do it again. Also, I would bathe in Baños del Inca.

Before traveling, you must ensure plane tickets or bus tickets. Then you should make an itinerary of places to visit. Finally, one day before the trip, you must pack suitcases. For this we must take into account the climate of the place and carry only what is necessary to avoid overloading suitcases.

Block 4 (Units 10 - 12)

Looking ahead. Do you think you’ll have an interesting job in five years? What do you think life will be like in the future? Do you think you`ll live in another country someday? What are your goals for the next five years?

 

 I think a lot on what I want to do/to work in the future. There are two jobs that I really LOVE to do.

First, I will work as a digital illustrator. I love to draw on my Wacom when I have time, it's one of my passions nowadays, not just only for my career. I drew since 2008 at that's one of the things that I enjoyed ALL MY LIVE!

The other one, one of the things that I going to do for years and teach to my children, too. I REALLY love to working on a gaming company. It'll be a dream come true if I do. The videogames are part of my life since I was a kid. It's one of my childhood dreams. Working in a gaming company would be really interesting. I know that it's a really hard work, but like the people say: "You should work in something that you enjoy and love."
 Keiji Inafume, is one of the person that I admired a lot in this world, because he's a Graphic Designer and also the creator of one of the most populars and memorable games in Capcom Company, Megaman (Rockman in Japan). If a designer and illustrator could create a memorable game like Megaman (My top #1 of games in my life), I would be a dream if i would do a game.

I'll go to Japan in the future, because my family have American and Japanese Visa, so could be easier to me to have them. I will come back to Japan... I'll wait for that day. <3

Block 2

Question:

Are there any interesting places to walk around your city? Where are they?  Explain why they are attractive to visitors.  Share your experience.

My town has several interesting places to visit. For example:

Parque de la Reserva:

Better known as Parque de las Aguas because their main attractions are several pools distributed throughout the park. It is located at the center of Lima. There are some in which visitors can bathe. This is quite nice in the summer.

I visited this park several times with my friends and family. Always had good times and give us a good refreshed.

Larco Mar:

It is a shopping mall located at the district of Miraflores. Several tourists come there because it has a modern infrastructure, no-brand stores and has several arcades such as Moy and Coney Park. And the best thing is it is oceanfront!!. 

I sometimes go there with my friends.

Block 1

Question:
When you have a day off enjoying at home, what are your leisure activities? Do you like "do-it-yourself" activities like baking or building things? Share your experience.

Well, when I have a day off enjoying at home, I always play with my computer and my PS3 because I like video games. My favorites games are League of Legends, Tekken, Resident Evil, Assassins Creed, Skyrim, Darksiders ... they are a lot. Then I like to listen to music of any genre. Except folk music and chicha music because I don´t like the lyrics of the songs and the singers need more vocal education. Actually, I listen some of those songs because they are part of the culture of my country. For example the Condor pasa, Blue eyes and other huaynos . But I prefer listen rock and classical music. A strange combination haha. Finally, at night I watch movies. I like horror movies, action and adventure.I do not like activities "do it yourself" because those things for patience. I am very impatient.

I do not like activities "do it yourself" because those things need a lot of patience. I am very impatient.

When I finished my project for 3D class, I saving my USB. But then, I want to see something in my modeling human, I saw that my USB didn't recognize my USB and I just freaked out. I can't believe that my PC didn't recognize my USB, I was really scared. I was thinking in all the information that was on my USB and I would lost if didn't work it. 
Afortunaly, my USB worked after 30 minutes. It's gonna be embarrasing, but I was crying a lot that Sunday at 01:15.

Nowadays, my USB doesn't work, but all my files are in my PC and I'm saving my works and project in my global disk.
Personal Thinking for me: Save all the files and projects on Dropbox or you will lost ALL!

There are many places to walk around in Lima. Some of this places that I interesting for me are these:

Miraflores, because is one of the most popular places for the foreigners. There are a lot of restaurants, shops, supermarkets, really beautiful parks, etc. There is an arcade here, too. I really love this place, and the foreigners, too. 
One day I saw two Korean foreigners playing Tekken 6, and they really enjoyed a lot.

Real Plaza is other interesting place to walk around. There are a lot fast food places and restaurant, coffee shops (like Starbucks), a cinema (Cineplanet), game stores, books store (Cristol) and clothing stores; for example, Oechsle.

When you have a day off enjoying at home, what are your leisure activities? Do you like “do-it-yourself” activities like baking or building things?  Share your experience.

 

When I have a day off enjoying at home, I usually help to cleaning the home with my mom. Actually, I don't really like that but I have to do anyway (If I don't help my mom I can't go out with my girlfriend so...)

Other things that I enjoy to do is to go out with my girlfriend. I really love all the things that we almost do. (I just love her, that's all). We play some rhythm games, like Pump It Up (dancing), Jubeat Knit or Pop'n Music Fantasy (in these games you have to use your hands and push the buttoms on coordination with the rhythm of the music or beats).

Another things that I do is to play videogames and see videoblogs. Some videogames that I really enjoying a lot are fighting games, like Street Fighter IV, King of Fighters XIII, Street Fighter X Tekken, Guilty Gear Accet Core, etc. Some videoblogs that I look on Youtube are from PewDiePie, Dross Rotzank, ElRubius (these are gamers videoblogs), The Fine Bros, How to make (these are more like funny reactions and hilarious things). Also, I love to reading mangas and look animes on the Internet. ( <3 )

I don't like to do activities of "do-it yourself" (It will be drawing one of these? If it's, I DO!), I'm not "good" on things to do with my hands because I'm a bit clumsy with them.
