Hi everybody, this is the last week of class, and i’m sure we all are busy. sometimes I was discouraged by all the work I had to do, but I re-motivate myself because I want to have a good life tomorrow. As I predicted in my first post, i was a blogger, a good student, and of course i got sick. Now i will let you with these beautiful pictures of christmas.

Hi guys, i hope you had a happy thanksgiving. Last friday was my first Black Friday that i did. I went to Nebraska Furniture with my girlfriend at 5am. It was really cold. We had to stay in the line until the opening that was at 7am. I know it crazy, but that is nothing. There were people who were there since 7pm. It was a good experience. We got a really good deal.

 Hi guys, as you know it is almost thansgiving, and i can tell you how much i am impatient. This thanksgiving will be my third thanksgiving since i’m in this country. I celebrated the first two with my family and friends, but this years i’m going to cook for my family.

I everybody, this week i will show you some beautiful pictures of the omaha zoo. I was there last weekend with my family, and he was so fun. But let me give you some advice before you decide to go. First, you will need to take your day off, because it is a very big zoo. My family and I spend 5 hours visiting, despite all of that, we where not able to see all animals that was in the zoo. Put sneakers, and especially do not be afraid to walk!

 I love this picture, because I felt like i can touch him. And it was very hard to take this picture.

Actually this picture is an attraction, named Skyfari, it’s really cool, but don’t be afraid of heights.

                           And finally my fovorite picture! As you can see the monkey was asking something. He his moving his hand. I first don’t understand what he want. But everyone who were there were laughting. It was only after a few minutes that i realised that he was asking me the sandwich that i was eating. 

Origin of Halloween:

Halloween means Hallows Eve (the eve before the Day of the Dead, on the 1st of November), and its origins are Celtic. 2,500 years ago the Celtic people from what is now the UK celebrated New Years Eve at the end of the summer, not in December, and for them this day was the 31st of October. For some reason, the Celts thought that on this day the spirits would come out of their tombs and walk the earth. To scare off the spirits, people decorated their houses with bones and other scary objects that would ward off the spirits. 

                          Last saturday I went to a haunted house with my girlfriends, called Master’s Castle. It was the most terrifying night of my life. I was already terrified before going there, because my girlfriends who already know the place, told me that it is a very scary place. Before getting into the house, i was afraid because the house was in the forest. I was thinking, oh my god, where i am? why I put myself in this situation? but I could not back out because my friends would laugh at me. At the end i really love it! We were all afraid, we all grabbed each other.

I can’t wait for the next year!

In Africa
there is not only children soldiers or people starving in the bush.

Do you know that African students are paying between 14000 and 20000 dollars per year for college fees only ?
Most of them doesn’t have any scholarship; therefore, their school fees are payed directly by their parents.
And that they contributes for more than 12.87 billions of dollars to the U.S economy per academic year?

So here are some pictures of this Africa you never seen !
