Post six

Hello everyone!

We're finally in the final station of this blogging experience, for this post you will be able to write freely about any topic of your choice.

The only requirement is to answer this short question:

What did you think about this writing experience? (the whole blog activity, the six different blogs we made, answer this question in the comments, minimum 40 words).

Now the free topic, in my case I'll choose to talk about the hobby I have, that is, cactus growing.

I've been "in the cactus world" for ten years now. I started without even noticing it. I remember I bought a plant arrangement with about five or six different cactus and succulents, and after a while I decided to separate them, and give each plant its own pot.

After some time I had already started buying plants in different countries, either through Ebay or buying from international friends. It was around then that I started getting seeds and creating my own plants and trying different growing techniques such as cloning or grafting.

Now that 10 years have passed I can say that it's a very addictive hobby, as plants frow and develop different forms and very beautiful flowers. It can be expensive but it also becomes very rewarding. These are some flowers of plants I made from seed :D









Now it's your turn, write about anything!! either a hobby you have or anything that interests you. The minimum wordcount is 130 words. And don't forget to answer the question in the comments. (What did you think about this writing experience?)

Good morning everybody!

Here's one of the last posts we'll do this semester. This time you'll write about one of these two options.

My pets (s)

or

My favorite videogame.

Here's my post:

VIDEOGAMES!

I'll start by saying that I'm not a big fan of videogames, I don't play them very often, and I don't usually invest money on them. But I do recognize that there are many videogames I like, some of them are very old, but they remind me of some good old times and they're a lot of fun to play.

A classical, that I used to play in videogame rentals, in the 90's, is Snow Bros, in which you have to defeat different monsters, to move into new stages to try to rescue a princess.



Some of the others I like are from a company named Neo Geo, I played these in a computer as I was growing up, with my brothers and for hours when surfing the internet was not an option. Some examples are Metal Slug, The King of fighters, Magical World, and Bomberman.

 


My favorite video game is by far Pokémon, I loved it since it came out, and I have played several versions of it, not only videogames but also Pokémon card games.

Nowadays the only videogame I play is Mortal Kombat Armageddon, in my PS2. I play it with my neighbor when he comes over to my house, we call it 'echar peleas' and it keeps me away of stress!
If I ever have problems with anything, I imagine myself performing a FATALITY!
And that solves it all! haha.

So now it's your turn!
Write about videogames or pets in at least 135 words. Make a comment in my post and at least in 3 of your classmates'.

Post 4

Hello everyone!

We have had a difficult time the last few weeks, protests, curfew, and a general feeling of discontent have filled the lives of many people in our country.
These issues have been present in people's lives for a long time but it wasn't until students in Santiago started a peaceful protest in which they massively evaded the payment of the Metro fare. After this there were some violent outbursts which led to, in my opinion, to a big mistake from the Chilean president who declared "we are at war".
Starting the 19 of October, these days certainly left everyone with stuff to think about. That's why I decided to make this post about the national contingency.
                          

What do YOU think about all this?

For this post I will ask you to write 120 words, please tell me your thoughts about this, and maybe what you expect to happen after this so called revolution.
The only thing I ask of you is, please write respectfully. Everything you may want to say, can be said with respect.
I'll read you soon!
