Post 8: English Language Challenges

My experience so far learning English has been a tough one because when I was a little girl I never ever was put in an ambient were I could easily have access to a anglosaxon ambient all the movies , series & news channels were all in Spanish , the music was in Spanish so my ear was not used to the language in English ,so that put like a level of difficulty major than my comrades in university that were exposed to this language early in their lives I never had a English class since I started high school nowadays all the kids can watch YouTube in English having a better understanding of this phonetics but now putting all of my effort I’m succeeding  in learning English  ; the blogs have been very helpful for me because they made me think & to rationalize more than in an common test.

The aspects that I would totally try to improve is my pronunciation & spelling because those are the key areas to have a fluid conversation with people & to give my vision to other people while trying to communicate an idea.

Well now I’m using English almost daily because I’m trying to train my hearing in dissection of the words when someone talks so I can have a better pronunciation & understanding of English when someone talks to me so I can reply fast & effectively , so what I’m doing is to watch a lot of English dubbed series in Netflix mainly like dramas & action series like peaky blinders and a lot of podcasts in YouTube to of people talking about the current relevant stuff & some models that do makeup tutorials videos.

  1. A tip to improve pronunciation is to watch series in English and sing songs watching the lyrics, although the most important thing is to choose the right words for a conversation, that´s my opinion.

Post 7: Changes to my Study Programme

Currently I am in the fourth year  of my architecture studies I still have two years left and with the passage of time I have seen how the way of teaching has changed , when the academic load I was too demanding and we could not sleep in many days, there were many people with mental health problems who presented depression, anxiety, sadness and constant stress, in 2019 there was a manifestation that  was backed up by the media  so finally the students were listened by the people in charge of the university so the professor were more helpful towards the students & not so severe when they scoring the work of the peers of architecture , even though the career is very demanding it takes a lot of time & dedication & many hours of hard  work many of my classmates prioritize there mental health & happiness trying to enjoy what we do in the university .

Post 6: Time travel to the Future

Time travelling is a thing that I never thought of before but if I could do some of this time travelling stuff I would go to Dubai in the year 2500 , I think that watching all of this years the development of the city since the decade of 1960’s  when it was no more than an array of buildings that had a lot of the early 1900’s Arab style architecture in its roots and then since the petroleum industry hit hard in the economy of the emirates starting an acceleration in the development of the city. In the year 2021 the Burj Khalifa with the world record of being the tallest man made structure of earth in history, that is the setup that convinced me of being in this city   it in the upcoming future ; imagine how a city could develop with an unlimited budget & the motivation that the Arab rich men have for constructing flaunty & extravagant buildings with a megalomaniac background & a desire to put Saudi Arabia as one of the world’s most powerful economies this makes m...
