Sad with a Rainy Day.

I came up with: solemn, melancholy, dark, damp, sluggish, depressing, monotonous, never ending, groggy, grey, muddy, and dripping  It was a rainy day, similar to those that one wants to stay home, make a cup of coffee and relax, Watching favorite TV program. I decided that it was a day for me when I wanted to do something different. I started going over my homework assignments. The weather was very cold and rainy.

The sky was dark with big, puffy, gray clouds, and there was a light drizzle of rain. My face was pressed up to the window, watching as the rain poured down. It had been raining four hours and looked like it had no intention of stopping. The wind whipped the trees around like thin cornstalks. The raindrops would get caught in the force of the wind and blow in a horizontal path, slamming into the side of the house. Every barrage of raindrops sounded like thousands of darts hitting the house. As the raindrops hit the window, the glass grew misty and cold. I had to take my hands off the glass and pull them into my sweater, which was very warm and comfortable inside.

Everyone knows that the first color you see in the morning will establish your mood, and opening my window to a gray, wet day is depressing. I can not say I feel depressed only sad, but sun definitely cheers me up. It is quite a downer though if you live in a area with gray sky and lots of rain most of the time. I like sunshine.

I see light gray clouds covering the beautiful blue sky and blocking out the warm rays of the sun. The day is cold, and dark, and dreary; It rains, and the wind is never weary.
The Rainy Season comes after the Summer Season. So this season brings relief to everybody. We enjoy rains. Very often it rains for days together. The water level rises. Trees look more and more green. On a rainy day the sky remains covered with clouds. The sun remains hidden behind the clouds. Sometimes low-pressure occurs and it results in heavy rain.

Tanks and pools are filled with water. In this season the colour of the water in river turns yellow due to the particles of mud. Roads become muddy. Rain water flows on the roads. Small children prepare paper boats and float them along the stream of water.

The Rainy Season is helpful to us in many ways. The earth which was dry becomes cool and soft. The air becomes cool and comfortable. The air in this season is free from dust. Rain is helpful in agriculture. Farmers become happy to get adequate rain in this season. We get many kinds of vegetables in this season. If there is plenty of rain water, then it is preserved in dams for the hydro-electricity and irrigation purpose. Therefore we must be thankful to this season.

The Rainy Season is also not without troubles. It brings us some inconveniences. As roads become muddy, people face difficulty in going from one place to another. If it rains for days together, the working class people suffer from starvation. They do .not get any work anywhere. Prices of essential commodities go up due to interruptions in supply of goods to the market. Many diseases break out. Malaria, dysentery and diarrhea are quite common. Impure water is the chief reason of the spread of diseases. Flood occurs and brings heavy damage to crops.

I actually quite like rainy and snowy days. Rain can be quite peaceful especially if it's going to storm. Rain is something that can change a person´s thoughts or ideas, because that sad of a rainy day can influenced a lot. So you can change that and start making a rainy day being a happy and unforgettable day. Every time you want a special moment the weather could help a lot.

When you need her, she will always be with you.

Is curious how at the beginning a complete stranger could be your best friend. Someone I know a lot of her life and she isn´t part of my family, is my best friend. She is at the same school and we are in the same curse. A very important fact that will help in your life will be the school. It helps you to make friends, meet new people, learn, and try to deal with your classmates. But there is always someone for you, your best friend. You said “She is my Best Friend”, but are you sure that she is the one?

When someone is your best friend is because you know what she likes, know her sad moments, help when she needs help, you know her strength, her top secrets and her life. To call someone your best friend is difficult, because you have plenty of friends, but sincerely the mains ones will be with you at any time.

This is something I can sure tell to that special person that makes her own space in my heart and the brief words that makes it called her: My best friend. “  My Best Friend, my companion, through good times and bad; through happy and sad, beside me you stand, beside me you walk, you're there to listen, you're there to talk, with happiness, with smiles, with pain and tears, I know you'll be there, throughout the years.

She is seventeen years old. She has born in Guatemala, She has dark and black hair, brown eyes, a pretty smile; well she is a happy person. She studies at Colegio Internacional de Guatemala, she is in 9^th grade. She loves to dance, she loves going to Starbucks, to Laser Heroes, to Pradera Concepción, going to the beach and all of the funny activities that you can make with your friends. Some of her habits at all days is waking up early, take a wash, eat breakfast and prepare for going to school. When she returns from school, she makes a lot of activities, going to sporta; the gym, and to Galeria Rios for dancing. She practices jazz. I can tell that she is very good at dancing and an excellent person. She is very positive and knows how to makes you smile.

 People today, in this entire world have lost sight of what a true friendship is. I would help the world out a little and explain what real, true friends are:  Friends don't have to be exactly the same. Friends have similarities but they also have their differences. They key to opening up the world of friendship is not only to expand on similarities but to accept each other's faults. Because you can't ever judge your friend.

You have to be comfortable together or else you just aren't going to click. If you feel edgy around the person then something isn't quite right.  Friends love unconditionally. They have there little angry moments but what's done is done and all is forgive and forget. Why let something that happened in the past ruin what happiness you could have in the future?

Now, your idea of a goos friend is still the person who gives you the better of the two choices, hold your hand when tou are scared, helps you fight off those who try to take advantage of you, thinks of you at times when you are not there, reminds you of what you have forgotten, helps you put the past behind you but understands when you need to hold on to it a little longer, stays with you so that you have confidence, goes out of their way to make time for you, helps you clear up your mistakes, helps you deal with pressure from others, smiles for you when they are sad, helps you become a better person, and most importantly loves you! This is all I can express to that special person.

Chinese Restaurant

I still remember those Sundays when my family and I went to our favorite Chinese restaurant here in Guatemala. When I was like six years old or even less, we ate at this special place. You said that something is special when you know, care, visit, and trying to make it yours; so we considered it special too,I will continue telling about the greatest Sundays. When you get inside this place, you start smelling that authentic and unique smell from Chinese food. That is so delicious that will makes you to concentrate in the food; only with that smell will be the beginning for your brain to start imagine it.

The restaurant´s structure is the same from the Chinese places, and the colors are so peculiar. The basic colors are red and green. When you sit for start eating, just can make a pause and take some minutes to look at all of the decoration. The pictures, paintings, lamps, and the background music is oriental, completely the Chinese culture, which is a culture that I really appreciate.

You can see at that restaurant that are some texts written in Chinese; that is very curious if you don’t know how to read or write in Chinese. In spite of their unique varieties of food, most of the foods can actually be found in the West. The main difference is that the cooking habits of the Chinese and Westerners are different. The Chinese tend to combine certain flavors and with ingredients that are specially seasoned with specific sauces or spices.

The cuisine in China differs from one region to another, but with major differences found between the north and the south. The spiciest cuisine in China is that found in Sichuan cooking. They tend to use garlic and pepper in all of their dishes, while Cantonese cooking has less oil and spices in their vegetable, fish and seafood dishes. Beijing and Shandong cooking tends to use more cereal products (noodles, and pastry pouches either steamed or boiled) and use simple ingredients with spices and chili. Reading this you will be a person that will prefer Chinese food.

I remember that at the enter of the restaurant was a Chinese, she was the owner I guess, but sincerely I think she is the owner. She always was in the phone, taking notes and telling everybody to come in. She is a social person, well she needs to be that way to get more clients; but that is not such important, the thing here is that the owner was at her restaurant for monitoring everything.

The waiters obviously have their formal uniform and always running of course, because at 12:00 am was like a Shakira´s concert; that means full of people. Most of the time you need to wait for taking sit; and that waiting will be more because you need to order and then eat. It sounds like a big and huge process for only eat, but that doesn't matter how much time you have to wait for just eating Chinese food.

The waiters already knew us and knew what we were going to order. We order the same each time we go, so it was constantly. Every portion is different and their ingredients too like vegetables, sauce, and taste. The Restaurant now is so change; you can find more parking, tables and space. The bathrooms are completely different, but the ones that don’t change are the waiters. They are the same just few of them new ones.

The only thing that isn´t very good or the aspect that does´tmake the restaurant perfect is that they don’t have express service that will be something good. Because there are some moments that you are very tired and you want to eat at home. If you can have the opportunity to take a look for the Chinese culture, just do it, you will love it.
