What and How I normally eat.



Food likes are related to customs in our family and culture in our country.
In my family we used to eat rice, beans, meat, veggies and salad. This is the most common pattern repeated all days in my family diet.
These foods can be combined in different ways such us soup, mixed rice or with pasta that makes variable meals.
I used to eat three meals per day, nutritionists say that the recommended amount of meals per day is 5, but my disorganized life style doesn´t permit me follow these recommendations.
The way my family eats is common for most families in Costa Rica, that’s because we are a native family and we learned this country’s culture well. As I mentioned before food depends on culture, so I think that people in Costa Rica prefer to eat typical food than foreign food.

How will education and/or business change in the future?

Is simple to have an overview about future; talking about business and education advantages.
For future generations teachers will be extinct, everything will be solve by internet, using technology and lots of new things that now days we don’t know.
We will forget written homework or exams, those are bad news for us (teachers), but I think that teachers will be replaced by computers and internet.

Globalization.

Is a synonym of development, with the globalization everything grows; technology, telecommunications, internet, facilities, infrastructure and others. The problem is that those advantages mentioned grow as fast as pollution and competition.
I think that the best paragraph about globalization is the first one, it mentions the benefits of development and its consequences.
Now days is simple to communicate with people around the world, is easier to travel, we can see big buildings full of people working in big companies with lots of technology. But at the same time flora and fauna are disappearing, pollution is damaging air and water.
We need to be conscious about globalization and its consequences for future years.

My Dream Work!


Hi guys!! This post is for the first homework I didn’t, so I have to do it hehehe… Talking about the deal work, I think that is the one where you can have many facilities, such as a flexible schedule, a nice boss, friendly coworkers and a huge salary…But let’s back to reality, It doesn’t exist. The real dream work for me is when you work and you enjoy what you are doing, few people have the opportunity to find it, but if you found it take advantage of it. I like my job, so I think that I can talk about it as my dream work, it is great because I teach little children and in most of the cases they teach me a lot. My job is closer to my house so it is a big advantage because I don’t have to wake so early in the morning, also I really enjoy share with my classmates and now days I consider that my salary is not bad… As a conclusion, try to study something that you really like, and try to find a job that you like too. This is a great manner to receive money having fun.

Fall seven times, get up eight.

Fall seven times, get up eight and more. Life is to learn and the best way to do it is by mistaking. Once you have committed many errors you can say that you are becoming wise. But is important not only commit errors the key of learning is recognize them and transform them in something positive to your life. Don’t be like the ones that cry, complain, and look for other’s compassion, get up as many times as you have to and take advantage on your mistakes.

  • Below I wrote more proverbs for you to enjoy: A penny always turns up. A whistling women and a crowing hen are neither fit for God or men. If you lie down with dogs you will come up with fleas. Laughter is the closest distance between two people.

What professionalism means to me: my past, present, and future.



Professionalism is an umbrella term used to describe people with a large career or to describe many different aspects of business conduct. In my opinion, professionalism is the way you practice the knowledge acquired during your whole life. It doesn’t depend on an important job or a high position in a big company, it depends on the way you manage your job or this important position. Professionalism goes together with your past; without past there’s no learning without learning, no professionals. I think that now days I’m a good professional and that is because of my past learning, and I’m not talking about school learning I mean daily-life learning. Since I was a child I learned values, like how to respect others, be responsible, be honest, help others and a little bit of tolerance, all of these values made me the person who I am. With the past of the time and during my school years I learned that people can hurt your feelings, specially children, for that reason at the same time I understood that the most important thing is who you are, no what you look like. While I grew up I became more independent. I stared taking my own decisions, most of them were errors but those errors made me better and permitted me took great decisions. I studied Bilingual Preschool Education, but I think that this is just a title that gave me the chance to get a job, cover my costs and pay taxes. I’m a real professional because of my past learning; that showed me how to interact with others, how to solve daily life problems, how to learn through my errors and how to be the professional I am.
