Punta del Diablo

Last week, I went to Punta del Diablo with my boyfriend and my friends.
PDD is a beach in Uruguay. It's a very good place to relax (not in summer), because it's very small, very calm, there are no parties, no shops or big restaurants.
And it's really beautiful! We spent five days there.
When I was invited to the trip, I thought "Oh no, five days? We will fight, it won't work!". But everything was so good! Oh, an important detail: we went on a Kombi! Oh yeah, it was very funny and noisy!
We had a lot of fun... When we woke up, we walked, had chimarrão, went to the "mini market" (there were two!)... In the afternoon, we went to the beaches, but it was very cold. In the night we used to cook something, have some beer (or wine) and chat a lot. And we made private parties! But I didn't forget studing english, and when I listened to Beyoncé singing "If I WERE a boy" (her last song), I immediately thought "Why WERE? Why not WAS?".
Can you explain that? I couldn't, so I asked my friends and there was one who gave a good explanation. But he's not an english teacher, so I'm not sure about.


Juliana and Priscila/ Julia and Nahtielen: I can't see your blogs. I don't have a permission!

*How can I say Punta del Diablo in english??

See you! Thank you for reading!

Welcome to AllMyEnglish!


This Blog was created by Carla Antunes and Juliana Ribeiro, both English students at UFPEL University (http://www.ufpel.tche.br/).
The great idea of creating this virtual space came from Professor Rafael Vetromille, English III teacher, as part of this subject’s evaluation. Each Blog is owned by two students who will have the responsibility of writing (posting) an article, in English language, about any subject of their interest in every 2 weeks.
The brand new owners of this newborn Brazilian babyblog are full of great expectations. We hope to finish this assignment in the end of the semester finding ourselves with much more experience on Writing in this idiom which we wish so much to dominate as if it was our own natural language. Hopefully, we will discover good writers among us in the way. Who knows?!

Oh! And we also hope we get 2 full points for this.

What will we talk about? Any subject we feel like and sometimes even about English. We hope you find some of the articles useful and interesting.

If you like it, feel free to leave us a comment.

And if you are one of Rafael’s students, leave a comment anyway... You know you have to ;)

We wish Good Luck and a lot of inspiration to all of the other students!

Let’s get to work people!

Enjoy! ;)

What I expect from this english term

Well, it's a very wide question!
I'm trying to think about it since wednesday!
I could say just that I want to learn many things!
But it's not only that... I also want to make good friends!
I really want to refine my speaking ability, because I know it's not so good...
I hope we can enjoy our time together! I think it's easy to learn when classes are funny!
And I really expect to learn more about english language! I know it's very important to me, because I like reading and I'd like to read in english, and I really want to travel! I want to know many countries, so I need to speak english!
And I expect to have some fun!


Now that it's done, I'm thinking if I answered the question...
