Christmas in The White House

Yesterday I saw a program in HGTV channel. The program was about christmas in The White House. They showed all the decorations that the first lady chose to decorate Christmas Day. Every room inside of The White House was decorated with different ornaments like garlands and stars. One of the main decorations in The White House is the Large Uncle Sam who was located on the main entrace of the house to receive the visitors. Another is The White House gingerbread decoration located in the State Room, the Blue Room Tree and Santa Claus. Every year in The White House the First Lady organize a big christmas party with special meals and deserts for all the visitors. The First Lady starts to prepare everything in March because decorate The White House is a difficult job.

International Cusine

International Cusine was one of my favorites courses that I took to learn to cook. I had an excellent teacher. He taught me to cook a lot of recipes. The recipes included one appetizer, the main plate and the desert. Also he gave me some tips for cooking delicious meals and deserts. This course was expensive because the ingredients that we used to cook were very expensive. International Cusine require to use different kinds of appliances to cook like big oven, special skillets, pots and pans, etc. I like to cook and I really enjoy when I do this.

Facebook

Facebook is a very famous webpage in internet. Register in facebook is very easy and free. A lot of people use this page to keep communication with their family and friends, especially if they live outside of their native countries. In this page you can put your pictures, you can have the list of all your contacts, receive messages, etc. In facebook you can find people who you didn't see for long time. Also you can meet new people like your friends's friends. There is a long list of many contacts for all over the world. Personally, I don't like facebook because I think it is not very private. But I know a lot of people who like this webpage and they can't live without it.

Christmas

Christmas is celebrated every year in many countries. December 24 and December 31 are the more special days of the month. Christmas symbols are christmas tree and the nativity. People use to decorate their houses with many christmas ornaments like Santa Claus, Snowmen, Reindeer, etc. Also, people use to put the gifts under the tree. The gifts are given to the children after the baby Jesus born. On Dec 24 and Dec 31 people use to prepare a big dinner for all the family. After 12 o'clock people go out to enjoy the rest of the night. Additionally, people on these days wear new clothes like a complement of the celebrations. I love Christmas and I can wait for these days. Happy Christmas and New Year.

Nativity

The nativity is a christian tradition. Every year people built a new nativity. People use to pray every night in front of the nativity. This tradition start in December 16 to December 24. The nativity represent the birth of Jesus Christ. The nativity is formed by Mary, Joseph, the three wise men, the angel David, and the animals like sheep, donkey, cow, etc. People use to sing and play instruments at the end of each ceremony and offer food to the participants and children.
The last day of the ceremony December 24 people use to offer a big dinner and give thanks to God for the last year and the new year. People use to put Jesus baby at 12 o'clock in the nativity. This a pretty day to share with family and friends. I love christmas day.

Sushi

Sushi was originated in Japan. Sushi is one of my favorites meals. I like to eat sushi specially when the fish is fresh. There are a lot of kinds of sushi. The most common is sushi served rolled inside of alga. Sushi is always served with rice. The sushi can serve in a rice roll and in the center of this, the sushi chef put a little pieces of seafood like salmon, tuna, avocado, crab,etc. Also the sushi can serve in different form, the sushi chef can serve the fish on top of the rice. Sometimes the sushi chef put on top of the rice sesame seeds. The sushi is served with ginger, soy sauce and wasabi. I enjoy when I go to eat sushi.

The Wizard of Oz

Today I finished to read the book called The Wizard of Oz. I remember watched the movie when I was child, but I never read the book before. This book is really good for me, because I don't like to read a lot. This book is make for children, that's means easy to read. The letter's book is enough big to read and the book has some pictures to keep the attention of the reader. I liked a lot to read this book and I am very happy because I understand the story. I don't understood the meaning of all the worlds, but I got the idea of the story. I want to continue reading books like this. I think that it is a good progress for me.

Plastic Surgery

Nowadays, plastic surgery is very popular in the world. Years ago it was using to fix problems of deformation in the human bodies. On these days plastic surgery is using to fix problems of people's vanity and deformation in the human bodies. Women are very worried for their appearances and they want to use quickly treatments with quickly results that help their to fix their problems in their bodies or faces. They know that plastic surgery can fix all these problems in a short time. Also with the surgery they can change their bodies or faces to look more youngest and attractives. I think if a woman really needs to use this kind of surgery, it is correct to use it, but it is only for vanity, I think she should accepts her appearances who it is.

Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree

Rockefeller Center is located in midtown Manhattan. Every year, on December 3 they put a new christmas tree. It is located in the center's plaza near the skating ring. This tree has 72 foot and 40 feet round. The tree was decorated with 30.000 lights and a crystal start. The tree was donated for a family of New Jersey. Rockefeller Center for this time has been visiting for a lot of tourist who can to see the christmas tree. Also people can skating in the center's plaza with this wonderfull view of the tree. On the ceremony day, they have a lot of entertainers to enjoy the people who can to see the tree. I love christmas tree and I like smell them.

Black Friday is celebrated every year in November 28 after thanksgiving day. This day is very important for American people because it is a big holiday. On this day we can find the best deales in purchases. A lot of stores have amazings sales almost in all the products.

Also people take advantage of this day to buy christmas stuff or gifts for their family and friends. Aditionally, this is a commercial day because the stores make a lot of money and get a big profit. So don't forgett to save money for the next black friday. Good look.

Extreme Homes

I saw a program two days ago in HGTV Channel, this program was about extreme homes. They gave this name bacause the homes were very different to the normal homes. One of this houses many years ago was a rocket base. On the same land, the new owner of the land decided to built a house. The house was built in two parts above ground and underground. This house looked like a chalette of one floor and two cars garage. Underground the house had three floors, didn't have any windows, was very luxury and big. The house keeped the same temperture all the time whatever it is cool or hot outside. The house was built in wood above ground and in concrete underground. The electricity and water worked the same at others houses.
I think this program is very interesting and I like. But I'm not sure if I like to have a house similar like that.

Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving day is celebrated every year in November 27. On this day a lot of people get together to celebrate with family and friends. People pray and give thanks to God for all the blessings received. On this day is very popular to have a big dinner. The special plate is turkey but people prepare different kinds of food. Also on this day Macys celebrates a big parade in Manhattan. This parade is very famous and a lot of people come to see it every year. I hope to go next year to see the parade.

A Blind Story

I saw a program today called 60 minutes on channel two. The program was about blind people. The host of the program was a woman. She showed the story of a young man who was born blind. When he was three years old he started to play the piano. His mother descovered that he had abilities to play instruments especially the piano. With the time, his parents hired teachers to teach him how to play the piano. The teachers said he was very talented, and he learned very fast. Also when he was forteen years old he started to learn to read and write. Now he continue to learn this profession and offer concerts. He enjoy every of his life. It is amazing to see people who don't have complete all their senses can do wonderfull things, and appreciate more their lives than people how have everything.

Coffee

The coffee is one of more pleasant beverages in the world. Production and comercialization of coffee are a big global industry. Colombia and Brazil are the biggest producer of coffee in South America. Nowadays we can find a lot of beverages make with coffee as cappuccino, expresso, ice coffe, etc. Also we can find cakes make with coffee. Coffee comes in many presentations as coffee beans and powder coffee. Additionally, we can get instant coffee. People use to take coffee with milk or cream. I like coffee but I don't drink so much coffee. Sometimes I drink coffee when I don't want to sleep or when is cool weather.

Drogs and Alcohol

Life is very difficult. People have a lot of different kinds of problems, which causes stress and depression. These are two reasons people abuse drogs and alcohol. People don't know how control their problems and they start to use these products frequently without any control. Pleople forget the use of these products in excess can cause the death. The use of these products are more frequent in teenagers. They don't have control of this situation and they get in accident easier. I think schools should educate our children about the use of these products. Also parents should take this topic wiht more responsability and avoid to drink alcohol and smoking in front of their children.

Poverty

Around the world we can find a lot of poverty. Poverty is a very common problem. For many years this problem has been a big global issue. Africa is one of the continents who have more poverty. The life's conditions are very difficult to people that live in this situation. It is very hard to see how people can live like that. These people don't have anything to eat, don't have place to sleep and many of them don't have family. They live in a extreme poverty and many of them live in the streets. I think goverments should take this topic with more responsibility and find ways to eliminate this problem.

Television

The Television was created as informative media and entertainment. There are a lot of programs to wasch in television everyday. Programs such as movies, shows, sports, news, videos, etc. For me it is very important wasching TV at list two hours everyday. I love it. Also I like to have a big TV to wasch movies. I write about that because just righ now I don't have television. I canceled the cable, so I am very bored. I don't know what happend but I should have the normal chanels because before I got the cable I had it. I guess the people from cable vision disconnected my other antenna. Tomorrow I am going to try fixing this problem. Also I need the television to sleep. It helps me when I go to the bed and let down.

Music

I saw my husband's cousin played the batery. It was amazing. I think play instruments, sing and dance are like a kind of art. If you want to do this you have to have passion. Not only passion, you need study this profession because it is not easy. Learning to play instruments need time and dedication. Also the sound and the voice are very important. You need developed all your senses especially the ears. In my opnion I like to see somebody plays the gitar and the piano. I like to see when somebody plays and sings old music like a trio. However I don't like rock music or when people play the instruments for this kind of music. There are a lot of things to learn about this art or profession to understand the real means of the music.

Traveling

Traveling is the best pleasure of the life. People can travel by air, by sea, by train and by car. Most people enjoy traveling. However a lot of people have many motives to travel such as business travel, vacations, honey moon, etc. In many occsasions traveling is an opportunity to be with family and with friends. Also people travel when they have special occasions like a honey moon, birthdays, marriage, etc. There is many reasons to travel. There a lot of places to travel around the world and a lot of beaches, mountains, lakes, rivers, volcanes, etc to visit. Also we can travel in each season. I enjoy when I travel and I want to travel all my life.

Chocolates

Chocolates are very popular in the world. They are mading with cocoa. People from all over the world like to eat chocolate and to drink hot chocolate. We can find many clasess of chocolate such as black and white chocolate. People add inside the chocolate sweet, nuts, rice, etc. Also chocolates are using like a gift for special occasions such as birthdays, valentine's day, mother's day, etc. We can find chocolates with different figures like squard, circle, heart, etc. Additionally, chocolates give energy to our body.
