Hi classmates...
In this first post I will write about me. I think that introduce our selves will be normal in this first post for the most part of our classmates, and I think that will be great, because we can through this posts know each other better.
First of all, my name is Karen Wolf Maciel, I am 22 years old. I am Biologist, I was graduate last year in an University near my hometown. I am from Brazil, in South America, probably you know my country because of the soccer or Rio de Janeiro. Anyway Brazil will be really famous now because the 2016 Olympics games will be in Rio de Janeiro. My hometown is a little city near São Paulo, named Indaiatuba, its a realy good place to live, have a nice weather and friendly people. Oh... I miss my city, my family, and my friends. Is so hard stay so far away from my country and the persons who I like. I think that I am kind of homesick this days!!
By the way, I am here, in Riverside, since last March so is my third quarter in Extension Center. Also I work in a voluntary scientist research in a laboratory on UCR main campus. It is a hard work because I should go there every day after class, sometimes before the class starts, but I am really glad to do this research here, it is helping my Biologist and English improvement.
If you are intersted in know more about my country there are some video links:

ReplyDeleteHi Karen! I'm Mira. First of all, nice to meet you and Congratulation on Brazil become the host country for Olympic. I didn't know about that. Thank you for giving a good information to me. I enjoy watching video that you provided. Actually, I known about your county, but I didn't know that Brazil has such a awesome place! I was not farsighted enough to think of that. I just know about Brazil is famous of samba.Is it Iguazu falls, right? I heard it is very famous spot. In my county, Korea, there is a company that makes water purifiers its company's name is "Iguazu" !!. Is it interesting, isn't it? I love travel. I wish I'll go to Brazil someday. See you at class Karen. Bye~
