My future plans
Now, I study at university and I am saving money to create my own business. I
am taking english classes at ICPNA and I really enjoy each class, because I
really have seen a big improvement in my pronunciation and I can keep a fluent
conversation. Also, I will take german classes, because I love to speak the
language although the words are a little bit difficult to pronounce.
This year, I will graduate from ICPNA, and get my certificate. Also, I will study a
lot and I will get high grades in my university semester.I have to make all of my
effort to be the best of my class and also I am going to be more organized and
responsable during exams week, it is an essential fact that I will do and any
student has to do.
In 2030 I will be traveling for studies to another country and to increase my
knowledge in some subjects of my career. Also, in 2031 I am sure that as soon
as I have graduated from university I will take my parents on a trip and bring them
to know and feel the experience of traveling to another country and to have a
good time together. Finally, in 2032, I am sure I will have traveled to many cities,
so I will know more about many cultures in the world.

An unusual
experience
Grammar: Modals of speculation
When I was 11 years old, I was doing a pijamada with my cousins. I must
have gone with my parents that day. All was ok until it was time to sleep. I
didn´t want to, so I used my cousin's cellphone to watch movies until I fall
asleep, but that didn´t happen until 3:00 am. I was in the middle of a movie
when suddenly the room started shaking, and I felt like it was an
earthquake.
I tried to wake up my little brother, but thought: "well, he must be very tired".
Then, something crossed the windows of the room and I it sounded so loud,
that I thought one of them might have broken. I thought that it must have
been an object that fell from the second floor, but when I sat down, I saw a
big dark shadow that had the form of a person very tall. As I saw his hand
trying to touch my face, I screamed as much as I could. Then, everything
dissapeared.
The next day, I didn´t see my cousin, so I supposed she must be at the
scientist´s, and what´s what happened. I was thinking of telling her,
because I thought I could have dreamed it. When she arrived, she told me
that her grandfather had died in the bathroom of her house from a heart
attack, and the characteristic were very similar to him. I couldn´t imagine I
might have been seeing her grandfather, and said: That can´t be real.
