Post 3 ENG 1200.10 Ohh … Melancholy


Ohh … Melancholy

The weather can change the mood of the people, and I’m not the exception of the rule. I was looking at the rain through the window of my apartment, and I was thinking on my mom. What is she is doing now? Maybe it is raining too and she is at bed thinking of me. I can’t even call her and ask her how she slept last night. I need to wait till next Friday because I used the 10 minutes call for this week. It is only 90 miles from Cuba, but feels like is in another planet almost impossible to go. Everything changes more that 50 years ago when one man decided to changes the future of the all country; separating families and taking roots away. I’m one of those thousands of Cubans that choose to live in exile away from the family, away from the city, away from the friends. It's been 10 years since I left, but it hurts like it was yesterday.

post 4 ENG 1200.10 Cows vs. Cats


Equal


Many people believe that a black cat brings bad luck and also, that anyone who finds the one perfect, pure white hair in an all-black cat and plucks it out without being scratched, will find great wealth and good luck in love. There are so many myths about cats in general that is hard to believe how these small creatures can have so many powers. 

The fact is that my sister has one black cat; her name is Aby, and she gave birth two little kittens. They are very small so my sister doesn’t need to buy cat food because they are still drinking milk from their mom, and it is in that moment where I have this idea. Next time I can bring my friends they can have a hot chocolate with Aby’s milk…. ajaja I can imagine their faces, like if I was crazy. I don’t see the differences between a cow and a cat. They are both animal that produce milk for their babies. 


The only difference is that the human choose to take away cow’s baby milk and made hot chocolate, coffee latte, butter, Ice-cream, cheese, etc. 








Next time when you are enjoying a cup of hot chocolate I challenge you to think on my sister cat.

Post 2 Eng 1200.10 Blogging is the new Facebook in my life.

The concept is easy, but for me it is not really fun to be in  front of my PC trying to create a blog, posts , and comments. I feel like is to much because I have the same professor twice , so my blogs are double than the rest of the students. It is obvious that my first language is not English, and that makes everything moreeeee difficult for me. However I know that the key to success is to be consistent and practice, and practice, and practice…… so here I am, instead of posting comments of my friends party, or my cousin's  baby shower  on Facebook , I'm at my sofa trying to make three lines and hoping that by the end of this semester I can be a blogging master or at least a better writer.

Post 1 Eng 1200.10 Because We Deserve a Better Cafeteria

Because We Deserve a Better Cafeteria



Good sleep and a balanced nutrition are very important for the success of every student, but what happen when you spend two or more day at school and the only choice of food that you have is from a BENDING MACHINE..


 


The most of this food are high in sugar and carbohydrate.





 If we talk about a community college where the tuition is around $1500 per semester can be ok, but if we said that the bending machine is located at South University where the tuition per quarter is $5000 dollars. Where all that money goes? 




As student of this University we should have a better alimentation
