5° SEMESTER What I saw and learned

The first thing I saw in the English class, was our goals in an aspect personal, familiar, in the school and with our friends.

We did a exercise about a hard situation, and what I wrote about, was when I was stocked in the sea, because there were big waves, and I wasn’t able to get out of the sea, and I had fear, but at the same time I was excited, I’m kind of crazy, but how at the end with help of God, I could get out of the sea, fighting with myself, because I was tired, but I had to continue, never give up, so thanks that I am alive now. I learned that God always help us, if we ask for help, and he won´t take us out of the problem, He will give us the strong to overcome that, and make us stronger, because what doesn’t kill us make us stronger.

PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

We saw about the people with disabilities, and this was a very nice lesson, because it makes you think about your life, about thinks that you think are very hard to do, and we don't do it, and how people who has a disability, can do it, and if they that have a disability and can and you that are complete and healthy don't want to do it, because you can but you don't want to make sacrifice, it’s something that makes you change, in the way of doing the things, and makes you thinks that the if you really want something and you make your self on it, it is possible.
