 A Frightening Experience

Last night, at 3:20 am,while I was alone in my house, something weird was happening upstairs. I heard noises coming from there, They weren't common noises, they were mysterious and terrible. I feltparanoid, as if someone wanted to hurt me. My bedroom was on the second floor, and I was frightened of going up. Later, at 4 am I was sleepy and I decided to go up and asked my self "what is going to happen? What can those strange noises be?" I took courage, got a knife and went upstairs. While i was going up, the noise came louder . I was walking fearless. However,  in the inside I was dying of fear.

 Now, I was on the second floor and I realised that something was moving in my room, it was a shadow behind the door. I felt insecure of getting inside my room as I didn't know what was going to happen. The door opened inmediately alone. I took a deep breath and went in. The door closed behind me. There wasn't anyone I could see. I raised my head and saw amalicious and scuffy creature, he went down and stood up in front of me. I was terrified, I was like a rock, I couldn't move until he said
"Let the game begin"
Who who are you?- I said stammeringly.
-It's better for you to start running- said with an arrogant voice. Without doubting it I rushed away searching for something that would save me. Fortunately his hands couldn't move faster even than a turtle. When I got to know where I was, I was already looking at the floor and I felt something grabbing my leg while saying:
"No choice, we will play" and then I realised I had no way out.

Look before you leap

   During the Language class, the teacher Andrea Shejter told us to write a story following the title: "Look before you leap". For this task, we were asked to use connectors,examples of direct speech, 2 similes, 1 metaphor and 2 examples of past perfect.

   I visited William last week. I hadn´t seen him for more than ten years. I knocked on his dorr. "Who is there?" he asked. "Bro, here your old friend, Michael" I answered. He got his keys as quickly as a cheetah and opened the door. We greeted and went to the living-room, he inmediately offers me a beer.
 Then we started talking about our past lives. Ten years without talking to each other, an entire decade. We talked abut everything, our lives, our girls, he told me that he had a son last year. Well... he told me "a little inofensive monster" I  understood it like that. As result of the theme of his son, he told me "I have seen many schools for this creature, but I didn´t like any". I understood what he was telling me since I had the same problem with my son. I told him that he had to look before he leap, because choosing a school for your son or daughter is as difficult as climbing the Himalaya. After 3 long hours talking about our lives, we decided that it was hour to finish the conversation. Finally, we past from and he told me "come when ever you want, you are as good as a psychologist to help people". I thank him, and went away.

We made this image with the phrase "Look before you leap" 

My ancestors

My name is Nicolás Lombardero. My grand-mother is called María del Carmen Lamas Rey, she was born in 1941, and she was the first of my family to come to Argentina. She came from Lugo (Coruña), Spain. She came to live in Argentina in 1955 because after the second world war, she suffered hunger. When my grand-mother was in Argentina, she met my grand-father, who is called Hugo Lombardero at the university, and they felt in love. They got married in 1962 and then, they had 3 sons, Daniel Lombardero (my father), Diego Lombardero and Darío Lombardero.
