Tell you about me!.
 
I like the order, I like put the things in the correct place and keep it very clean. For example We organize the tasks that we have to do, we divide the housekeeping, It's an activity that commonly we do the weekends when we are all together.

I like to much cook, different differents foods as casseroles, porotos with reins, meat to the juice or salads, I like to do this especially the weekends because I am more relaxed. 

But there is a work that I do not like to do. After I wash the plates, I do not like to arrange them and someone of my daughters has to do it. Also, I hate the ironing, hate it!. What I have to remember and not forget this week is related to my studies, a lot of works to do and some hanging tasks, as an interview, to read and to realize a few works and my program for all the weekends is to study very much because it is a little time to finish the classes where I study. But the better of the weekend is that I can get up an hour later than of custom.


I like to do during the vacations is to rest, to relax, to amuse myself, to look at movies, to eat ice cream, pizza, but I prefer all that I like to do it  with my daughters and I do not like to spend a lot of time cooking or in the domesticate tasks. I prefer go to the beach in the summer because I like the Sun, the sea, I me like to entertain seeing the people on the shore of the sea, to see surf, Sandcastles, etc .., But on the other hand I do not like the land, I am not entertaining it.

Others of the things that I like is listen when the foreigners speaks,  I like to hear other languages, as Portuguese, French, Italian, etc., but some day I would like to speak, to read and to write correctly English,  It's my favorite language, because it is universal and is the foreign language most used in the world.

It was a common practices in the wars and the birds are used to carry messages and Gordon Corera explain why. what reason does he give?. The said that There were important messages  carried by pigeon, because it was moving so fast and it couldn´t put up an aerial for a wireless transmission to be sent so they would very quickly. They use a pigeon, rather than the radio, because they sent the pigeons for a especifically place and it was more safe.
In the Second War the military used over 250.000 pigeons.

"A strange or supernatural experience".

When I lived in an apartment in the center of the town about 15 years ago and I lived with my husband, my oldest daugther and my mother in the very old building that it's considered cultural patrimony. Well, in this building happened many histories that many  deaths, suicides, etc.That sayed many ghosts exist there, above everythings a pair of childs ghost.

In the building lived a violinist  younger man, that he practiced in the basement for the all nights, in a occasions when he played his violin a couple of childs danced around him, but when he tried to see directly all of them, He can't find, they weren't there, they disappeared.  Also this childs ghosts show up many times in the nigth for the hallways of the building. In sometimes they took the door of my department in the nigth, when I loocked there I couldn't find them.

Also appear another ghosts. In a one time when I stayed in the bathroom and I took the shower I saw a woman ghost, but She dessapeared when I turned my head and besides when I stayed sleeped alone in my bedroom my mother and husband listened noise and steps near me in my bedromm, they went upstair faster but they can't find nothing or nobody, because my bedroom stayed in the second floor.

I'm not scary!.
