Writing One
The most important person in my life
Carmen Perez, my grandmother, was a great person. She educated me when she was alive. Also she dedicated many time to other people. She loved animals and she has many types of animals. She never studied because she was a poor.
On the other hand, she was very happy with her sons. She went to the church all the weekends. She was very devout. She took care of me and loved me so much. She died five years ago when she was 79 years old.

Writing Three
Barba Mascaraed
The mascaraed in Barba used to be celebrated in the streets of the city. People put on a mask and disguise of metical characters of the region, and marched for the city. The mascaraed celebrated for many years. Also the mascaraed and other people went along with the folkloric band and they played music. People used to finish the march in the park and went to dance.
On the other hand, at present that tradition is celebrated differently. Nowadays people who put on a mask and disguise chase other people and hit with sticks. The clowns or people with the mask go out to the church when the bells ring. If people don’t run, the clowns will run behind people. Also, the folklore band change, now they play only in the park. The habitants of that community live happier than in the past.

This was the last practice with my partner before presenting the oral exam to pass the course. We talked about what we were doing in the past when we were in school. can we still lacked enough to practice for the exam. But the day of the oral exam was pretty well although we play a similar subject I touched us in this video.
