Christmas stuff and a 2020 reset

Hello readers and happy Christmas! Did you get all the presents from your list? If you did that means you’ve been a good boy or girl during this terrible 2020, if not, don’t worry, you’ll have 364 days more to try it again 😉 Today has been my second CFM (Christmas Food Marathon) and I still don’t know how I survived to it: two days at my husband’s village is like a week in a hotel with full food included, trust me, I don’t know how we can eat so much.  By the way, this year has been a little bit different from last 2019 Christmas, the first thing was the fact we were fewer people at the table although this time has been so fun as the last year, so this is a great point for 2020.  And the second and the one I most liked was we didn’t dress fancy as if we were in a ceremony, so we can start a new tradition in our family: wear the most ridiculous or cute jersey with a Christmas style as did my sister in law and her family.  Every year we used to wear a fancy dress to look f...

Back to school

Hello readers, it’s been a long time since the last time I wrote a post but here I am again. Let me tell you one of the reasons I’ve decided to write again, maybe it would help you! A few months ago I had a job interview and one of the requirements was to have good English spoken and written, fortunately, I had this modest blog so I could show my skills. This had been the first time I had been asked for it! So I’m proud to write in English although sometimes I don’t know what to write about. So there is a thing I learned: show how good is your English even if you’re not a great writer! I am a student from a month ago, after the job interview I wrote before I didn’t get that job (not for my English but it was for other reasons) and unfortunately, I lost my job for a cyber attack to the company (yes, this is for another post!) so I decided to try to study again. As an adult student, I’ve found lots of difficulties, the first one is to study every day, our brain is a  big muscle and i...

Back to the quarantine

Hello readers, how is going your quarantine? Today is the stage 2 in my country! So we can go everywhere, visit our friends and family, ride our motorbikes, take long walks with our dogs… Things we used to do daily and were boring but now are just amazing activities to do! I haven’t written for a week at the reason was I began to work again, well, was my first day after two months in the company, considering that I’ve been two long months in quarantine at home.  This first week of work and of “real life” has been difficult for me, I couldn’t imagine how life would be after the quarantine, even I didn’t considered I could have some trauma as it was this: I had a trauma, I was afraid of strangers, the virus, the environment, everything scared me because I was as confused as all my workmates. We use PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) that covers almost all our body, even the workers who aren’t directly in touch with the customers, but the most annoying PPE was the mask, I couldn’t im...
