MY INTERESTS

Hi friends I'm Ana;

One of my favourite interest is drawing clothes (desses, skirts, t-shirt...etc). I like to do it because I love fashion and I draw everyday, for example, every evening when I finished my homework I practise it.

Other of my interest is to buy clothes and see fashion magazines. I do this in my free time, but normally I usually find some free time. I buy clothes because I love seeiing my closet full of new clothes. For example, when I'm Badajoz and I finished my homework I go to Menacho.

I think that both interests are very important for me because both are related to my future studies, they are: go to university and studying clothes desing.

IMPRESSIONS ON THE SCHOOL COMENIUS TRIP TO ISTANBUL

I think that this trip can contribute to our knowledge about other countries, their customs, the language,...Etc. We'll practise English, we'll meet people from other places of the world so we can make new friends. We'll visit a lot of museum, monuments,... We'll be able to know its educational system, because some days we'll go to high school. This trip is fantastic!
