this is the end... my only friend

It doesn’t matter which one is your mother tongue, you must learn the Empire language. There is no escape, English it’s the new element of our DNA. I may not like this, but it’s the true. The globalization forces us to use a common language. That’s why today I’m writing this essay, because one way or another, learning English it’s the world way of being baptized to grow in this incredible, an shocking sometimes, connected world. This final English course may be the gate, and this essay the baptism ceremony to begin our renewal lives on global times. However, I’ve been baptized before, and it didn’t work.

Of course, this ceremony forces me to make a little trip to remember how this experience has been. Everything starts when I was a freshman. That’s when I realize that English language Empire was calling me. I was obligated to take this course, because if I didn’t take it, I couldn’t graduate me of psychologist. So that’s where my history begins. If anyone asks me now if I’m sorry for taking this course, I respond that absolutely not. I’ve learn many things that I might use in the future. But this couldn’t be like that, without my teacher. I think that I have to give an honorific mention to Alvaro, because he is a great guy, and I think that this course wouldn’t be so great if he had not been there.

Another reason why I find this course has been successful is for the use of social networks as blogs. Using blogs allows us to being always writing, and trying to be updated. If someone asks me for some suggestions to this blog sessions, I would probably say that should be allowed to students write about their favorite topics always. Other suggestion would be that all classmates should write in a chat, so that every student was forced to interact and had to think and write something English in real time. I hope that those things will be consider for future English courses.

Finally, I’ve enjoy a lot this travel despite all other funny (but real) things that I’ve say about “English: the language of the Empire”. And now, some final conclusions about my experience. I think that this two years have been useful, because I’ve learn, talk, and write every Friday in English, but the most important thing, is that this course was more like a fun and relax time to spend with my classmates, then a rigid and boring English class. In a environment like that, English learning it’s a lot more easy and durable I think. Who knows, maybe this “baptism” may work.
