Description of pictures
Good night!
In this entry I want to share with all of you three descriptions of three pictures.
The first one is about a Quinceañera party, the second is about a wedding and the third is about a birthday. All of them are very important celebrations. I hope you can enjoy my sweety voice XD
_____________
I'm so sorry for the quality of the pictures, but I could't find a better resolution and the camera of my cellphone is the worst.

Do a description of any picture is a little difficult. You have to add information you knew in advance and putting it together with new information. In my audios I could notice problems with some words and complete my ideas without hesitating. If you tell me my mistakes, I'd be happy.
New vocabulary
Wrist /rɪst/
Handicapped /ˈhæn.dɪ.kæpt/
Tuxedo /tʌkˈsiː.doʊ/

[Timeline] KAT-TUN
Hi everyone! This time I'm going to talk about KAT-TUN, my favorite boy band.
KAT-TUN is a JAPANESE band (sometimes people tell me that it's a korean or chinese band) formed by 3 members. It's part of Johnny & Associates, a talent agency. It has a unique style; its music is based in pop and rock but it combines lost of musical genres.
I knew KAT-TUN when I was 14 years old, and since that time, I've listened to its music each day of my life (LOL). I hope you can enjoy this short timeline about this group. Here you can found my lovely voice (XD) telling the history of KAT-TUN.
To do a timeline is fun and very easy. It's a great way to summarise the information and speak more fluent because you can remember what you want to talk about.
Thank you a lot for reading.

Thank you and I'll see you next time!

Looking for life
Hi everybody! Today we have a great video for you guys!
In this video, Diana, Ana Karen and me are sending a message for aliens.
This message is about Earth.
In conclusion this is a new experience for us. Because we had to send a message in which we explained a lot of things.
With this homework, we could think a lot of things about the other kind of life or "aliens".
We had some problems with the message, because we didn't know how to say some words or we didn't remember the sentences, but we could learn new vocabulary.

A little about me
Hi! My name is Diana Ochoa and I'm an English student. This video will be about me, my family, my friends and my likes. I recorded it over 20 times, but this was the best. If I have mistakes, I'd be glad if you tell me about them. I've recorded videos in Spanish, but this was the first time I made a video in English and I uploaded it to YouTube.
Sometimes I speak with my sister, but she doesn't speak English, so I try to use others words. I'm not fluent, I know so, but I hope to improve in short! Well... watch the video!
Recording a video is more difficult I thought. Thinking about you want to talk about is important because if you don't decide the topics, you'll only speak of random things or you'll forget something. I wrote all the ideas that I wanted to tell you in a sheet of paper, but, even so, I have mistakes.
Time ago, I thought to create a YouTube channel, where I'd talk about my hometown and so I could practice my English. I think this is a good chance that this project come true.
Please, let your comment in my blog.
