My current life

I usually gets up at 6am, even if I go to bed late I can't oversleep, I got used to it due my work. Now, I work near my house but I used to work very far away, and I needed to get up at 5am.

For breakfast I prefer a glass of milk and bread. I don't have time to have an elaborated breakfast.

I work in a Miller Factory, I didn't knew about it's existence before I started working there. Actually, This factory was found in 1966, so, it's not just any Factory, as I thought at first. Its name is "Molino el Triunfo".

If it hadn't been for my college, Ing. Senosain, maybe I woudn't have been working there now. He refered me for the job I have now. To be honest I was skeptical at first but it worked.

I work from monday to saturday, 45 hours a week, sometimes more, it depends on how busy I am. My job is not what I've ever dreamed but it pays the bills, I will work there until I get enough experience to jump to other job or get an scholarship. Sometimes, my job turns very bored but others I don't even have time to breathe.

I usually go home at 5:30pm, As soon as I get home , I add up all my dayly expenses and write it down in a application named Monefy, I recommend you try it.

After having dinner and got dressed, I  study english until bed time.

I use weekends to get in touch with friends, do the loundry, tidy my room, and of course continue studying english, I want to raise my english level as fast as could. I need a score of 8 in IETS to be allowed to apply  for an scholarship for a master.

PD: The highlight words are the ones I need to practice.

Me and english

I started learning "seriously" english when I was 18, I enrolled at ICPNA, it's a well know english academy in Peru. Learning there is not affordable at all, I spent almost all my salary to afford my classes  however I was happy, my teacher was  pacient and the methodology wasn't boring at all.

After 9 months, I quit it because It was more and more difficult finding a schedule that didn't interfere my classes in University.

Next year while surfing the Internet I found out an excellent course to learn english : " El Curso de Ingles Definitivo de Vaughan", It's a complete course, I downloaded it, as soon as I finished I started to practice, but I ended up quitting that course too. I realized now  if I had finished that course I would had been bilingual by now =(.

Every new year, I make a goal of  mastering english, and now I'm really involved, I started over learning by myself, and now I'm truly taking it seriously, I spend at least 2 hours a day (weekends included).

Yesterday, talking in english with my best friend, I realized that I'm not as fluent as I thought, and maybe the reason is that I only train my listening but I don't practice.

The purpose of this blog is getting used to thinking in english by creating my own compositions and putting in practice all the grammar and vocabulary I learn.

Hope we improve together!

Greetings!
