Blog 5: Music

 Hi everyone!


Hope all is well. Today we are talking about music!

My favorite singer of all time is Ariana Grande. She is a 27 year-old Pop/R&B singer and has a four-octave vocal range (similar to Mariah Carey who has a five octave-range!). She has six albums, Yours Truly (2013), My Everything (2014), Dangerous Woman (2016), Sweetner (2018), Thank U, Next (2019, and Positions (2020). I can't decide which is my favorite album, but sometimes I would say it's a tie between Yours Truly and Sweetner, Yours Truly because of it's throwback of 90's Pop/R&B and Sweetner for it's lyrical depth. To be honest, Dangerous Woman I love, but it is my least favorite album because the lyrics are not as deep compared to the others.

Beside her music, I really like her as a person, she is a feminist and very progressive. She always speaks out about issues in the United States such as racism, homophobia, sexism, and gun violence. 

Something that is really amazing about her is that she has whistle-tone register. Here is one of her best examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjzENV7rhhI  and here is her doing it live and one of her best performances: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGeH483gNOg

In general, my favorite musical genres are R&B/Soul, Pop, Reggaeton, and Trap :)

I download all my Reggaeton and Trap music from Ipauta.com. There they have news about the artists, reviews and free illegal downloads of songs and albums.


Here is the album cover of Ariana Grande's latest album:



Now it's your turn:

Write about your favorite artist (singer/band/group) or your favorite music genre:

Say:

Who is your favorite group/band/singer? Why?
What are your favorite songs/albums? 
What genres of music do you enjoy listening to? Why?
Mention anything else.

Blog 6: English Language Challenges

Imagen
 Hi all!! Today is your last blog post! Congratulations you made it hahaha! So today you are going to talk about your experience learning English at university and the use of blogs. Obviously this semester was more difficult because of the online classes, so talk about that also :) Please, please be honest so we can know how to improve as teachers and as an English Program. I have to say that I really enjoyed being your teacher this semester and I hope you enjoyed and learned a lot in my classes as much as I did. During the course, I tried to promote the use of English 100% of the time (even though many of you still refuse <_<) and I also made sure to practice the four skills: listening, writing, reading, and speaking. I can honestly say that many of you have improved since your first video. I know that it was a big challenge to have online classes, but we I think we did a decent job! Regard the content of the class, as you noticed, we always saw things that had important soc...

Blog 1: A country I would like to visit

Imagen
  Hi everyone. Welcome to blogging in level 4! Today you are going to talk about a country you would like to visit :) For me it's a hard decision because the countries that I want to visit most are Cuba, Brazil, Uruguay, Panama, and Bolivia. So I will talk about Bolivia because  I have tried to go twice to Bolivia, but both plans failed: the first time I was going to go with an ex-boyfriend, but then we lost the flight and then the second time I was going to go with a group of friends, but no one had money and then there was a coup d'etat there :( I really want to go to Bolivia because one they sell fried chicken on the street and I basically live off of chicken (sorry vegetarians and vegans XD). But also, I have been told that it is really cheap to go to Bolivia and stay there, which means I can buy lots of books and eat a lot hehe. I am also fascinated by its Indigenous people's history such as the Aymara. I know the country has been modernized in the last couple ten year...

Blog 3: Favorite Series/Movie

Imagen
 Hi everyone :) We are going to talk about favorite series or movie. Well, for me it's very difficult to decide because I have a lot of favorite series and movies. But I will talk about a series that I like whose second season came out July 31st! It's called The Umbrella Academy! I really like this series because I love superhero comics and this series is precisely about that haha. The series is about a billionaire named Sir Reginald Hargreeves who adopts 7 children and gives them numbers from 1-7 instead of numbers. However, their robot-mother ends up naming all of them <3 The billionaire is very abusive towards them and trains them to fight crime because they all have different powers. The series stars Ellen Page and also one of my favorite singers, Mary J. Blige, plays one of the villains. I like most of the characters, so I can't decide who is my favorite. I won't give any spoilers, but the series is very entertaining, dark, and mysterious. If you haven't see...
