English 4 | Semester 2 | 2019

In April 2017 these two legends of music - Elton John and James Taylor - came to Chile for an unforgettable show at Movistar Arena. My father invited me to this concert, and it was a magical night. I’ve been listening to James Taylor practically since the day I was born because my father loves his music so much! I even have pictures with my dad sitting on the couch holding a six-months-old me in his arms while watching a James Taylor DVD, so it was very emotional for both of us because it’s an artist that brings us closer together and has done so for 20 years now. At that concert he sang every song we love, we sang our lungs out to all of them and I cried every minute of it. It was amazing. After James Taylor’s performance Elton John came to the stage and, even if it wasn’t as emotional for us, having the opportunity of seeing this legend of British music live was wonderful! It was one of the best nights of my life :D

Mamma mia… I’d love to go back to Italy. My mother has Italian nationality so it’s a country I’ve been very close to since I was very young, she used to talk to me in Italian and tell me all the amazing things she did when she lived there. I went to Italy for my Viaggio di Studi with all my school classmates back in 2014, and we visited nearly 20 cities in this beautiful country. I love the language, the landscapes, the food, the ice cream, the hot chocolate, the museums, the architecture, everything! I’d like to get my Master’s Degree in Italy when I finish my studies here because they have one of the most renown restoration schools in the world, and that’s the branch of architecture I’d like to dedicate myself to. When I do that, I’d like to re-visit some of the cities I went to back in 2014 to take a more architectural look at them, make some awesome photos and visit some friends I have there. Arrivederci!

Hi! My name is María Ignacia Silva, I'm 21 years old and I'm in 3rd year of Architecture. To be perfectly honest I'm already B2 Cambridge certified and I passed all 4 tests at the beginning of the career but I need the credits, so I guess already having B2 would be my strength, but I get too cocky about it and don't practice my English it can also be my downfall. I hope to review some of the things I haven't practiced since I graduated from school and make new friends from other careers :) See you in class!
