"english language challenge"

English in university... well, to be honest, this is the very first english class I have in university. When I did the english test after I got accepted in my career, I got English III so here I am. Sure, I'd have enjoyed it more if I'd had the opportunity of ACTUALLY being in a classroom, speaking english directly with the professor, and if i wouldn't had as many problem as I had when I had to connect to virtual classes. But, despite of that, it was interesting, I really learned and solve a few questions I had in classes and I really, really like to write in english, so blogging helped me. My english isn't perfect, at the contrary, I think i have a lot of vocabulary problem and my gramatic sucks, but I defend myself.

I learned english on my own, I entered the internet very young and my father works in ships, so he has to travel a lot with other people and had to learn to speak english, and he help me to start learning too. I learned thank to music and movies, but, I think I really got involved with this language thank to Kpop. How, may you ask? Well, when I started to like Korean music it wasn't really popular in Latin America, so a majority of the interviews, lyrics translations and tv shows of my boybands and girlbands were only en english, so I force myself to learn. I made a few english speaker friends so they help me a lot to improve, but... I still have a lot to learn. And! Talking about, I decided to use the free time quarantine has gave me to learn another language, Korean, this time. However, the book I'm using to learn is in english, and in one side is a little bit confusing, but in the other, knowing english gives me tools that really help me with Korean, for examples, phonemas, there is a lot of sounds and vowels (korean has 21 vowels) that doesn't exist in Spanish but I know how to pronounce thanks to english.

However, wish me luck learning this new language! And thank you very much for the learning!

After I finished She-ra and the Princesses of Power, I rewatched it a few times because I didn't feel emotionally prepared to start a new series. But then a friend I really care about said to me I should watch Anne with an E, a netflix adaption of the famous book Anne of Green Gables. And, right now, after I finally finished the third and last (at the moment) season, I don't feel emotionally prepare to start a new series, again. And I just had to say that this serie is one of the best I've seen in a while. The serie is about a 13 years old orphan name Anne Shirley, who arrives by mistake in the farm of Green Gables, were the siblings Matthew and Marilla Cuthberth were expecting a boy. However, Anne manages to stay in the farm despite the initial prejudices and changes the little town of Avonlea forever with her imagination and bright personality. Everything about the show: the art department, the screenplay, the characthers and also the topics its talk about, are amazin...

 I've admired a lot of women in my life since a young age. I was lucky that my mum was not a feminist itself but had a really anti patriarchal ideology when she raised me, so she was aware I would learn about a lot of strong independent and revolutionary women while I was growing up. So, when I read the blog topic of this week, I immediately knew I was going to write about one of them. I thought about musicians I really love like Mon Laferte or Lee Hi or Mitski, only to tell them about how much I love their music and how it help me to go through really rough times of my life. I thought about actresses I admire like Jennifer Lawrence, Lupita Nyong'o or Anya Taylor-joy (the love of my life, oh my god, I would really LOVE to met her, sure it would be the best moment of my life, but whatever) and say to them about how much talent they have and how much I appreciate their hard work in every interpretation, because they have to go through such awful things in that industry.  Bu...
