My BIG family

Basically my family is normal I have a mom a dad a sister and a puppy but that's not the big part.

Let me start from the beginning. My dad's mother is from Costa Rica my grandmother is German descent. She emigrated with my grandfather many years ago to Venezuela. She is living in the same city since she came to Venezuela. She has 10 kids, I have 6 uncles and 4 aunts. I love them because they are crazy like me :) and I have 25 cousins and that's just my father family. My mother family is not big as my father family. My mom's parents are from Venezuela from a place called Tachira is a cold place but too much like Canada :) My grandmother had 5 kids, 4 daugher and only 1 son. I has 10 cousins by my mother family.

We always celebrate big parties and we go together to the beach, I love them sooooooooo much and I don't know I woul do without them. When I came to Calgary the parting was hard for them I was only thinking about my grandmothers but I know they miss me but they know that I'm because they want only the best for me because in Venezuela there isn't future for me.

Maybe I will return to Venezuela to visit my family in December and I know they'll be waiting for me with a big party like every year.

My hobby :)

When I was in Venezuela my hobbies were dancing flamenco and tennis. I practiced flamenco for 6 years and tennis for 3 years.

The flamenco was an important part of my life in Venezuela. When I start to dance at the beginning I didn't want because I said that it would be silly and boring but my mom always told me that it would be good for me because when I was little I hab back problems and the flamenco is good for this kind of problems. In my firts day I though that the academy would be a place I woulnd't like but at the firts day I changed my mind I hab a great time wth other girls and after 6 years dancing I coulnd't believe that I didn't want to dance. It realy change my life and my back problems gone.

I hab courses with renowned dancers in all Venezuela and recognized by some parts od Europe and if I hab the opportunity to dance here in Calgary I would do it.

It is true that men and women speak the same language, in my case the Spanish but men and women communicate differently. This difference can be seen in the play of children. They play "house", such games have a great display of communication as the conversations figure prominently. In contrast, the children play "struggles" to "war", "football" in which expressions are rare: they consist of monosyllabic words or sounds. Is for this difference for women is designed to enable communication share their feelings about different situations, both past and present and possible future situations. In contrast, for men, communication serves to make clear, with few words, what is the present situation.

In my contry sometimes is the same thing, the boys always play with boys and girls play with girls. We play in big groups of many people, we were a big group and we hab our differences at some point. These differences were the way we played, for example, we were playing the "atrapadas" the boys must catch the girls but they were very rude with us and always push us and that wasn't very nice. But that was when we were kids that's why we separated. Many years after everything was different we separate in different groups because we all of us were different even when we speak each other. The boys were very rude.

I think that is true, men and women have different ways of commucate for example the womens in Venezuela are very polite when speak with a person more older than her and mens too. My parents always teached me how to deal with people much older than me and I always respect them. My classmates and I joined more our last year os school because we think we've been together so many years that it was stupid that we treated each other in that way. At the end everything went very well.

   I think that men and women have differences when speak and other things but we can solved. I did and that I don't care if men and women are differents. In Venezuela we speak in the same way. There are not many differences when a women speak maybe more polite than men.
