                                                          My favorite animal

Well to be honest, I think there are many beautiful animals.

But since this time I have to choose I would say that it is the manatee.

Every time that I have said this to my friends they have said; really? manatee? how come?

They are sooooo ugly! and then I said; no, they are not, in my opinion they are really cute.

When I was about 9 years old my father bought a computer. This came with some games included.

I remember that one of the games was about the sea. And there was like a “host”, he used to talk about the different animals that we could find there, what they eat, how long they live and some other specific information. Then there were some games where you have to use the information given. So the host was a manatee! He was so cute, he even sang a song. It was the beach boys song, surfin USA. 

Now some specific information about this animal. They are also called sea cows.  “Manatees have a mass of 400 to 550 kilograms and mean length of 2.8 to 3.0 metres, with max of 3.6 metres and 1,775 kilograms seen. Also females tend to be larger and heavier"

Manatees are herbivores. The places where they can be found are the following:

“Marshy coastal areas and rivers of the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico (T. West Indian manatee), the Amazon Basin (T. inunguis, Amazonian manatee), and West Africa (T. senegalensis, West African manatee)”

                                    My favorite movie or book

                       

To be honest I do not have a favorite movie since I like so many!

But since I have to choose one I would go with Big Hero 6. 

This movie was released in 2014 and it is an animated kind of movie.

What I really like about this movie is that even though it is an animated one, the movie is more for adults I would say.

 It is about a teenager who really enjoys betting using a robot that he created. His older brother does not like this and encourage him to be part of a really nice university.

So he decides to apply and he creates what are called microchips which are a group of small chips that gather together and create different forms. The person who wears a special kind of helmet has to think about it and then the microchips get together and create this form.

I cannot say anything else about this movie because I think that you should watch it!

Ah! I almost forgot, I went to the cinema last year with my niece who is also my goddaughter, she is 8 years old.  We had a really good time together.

THE BEST CONCERT I'VE HAD

So the Backstreet Boys have come to Chile 4 times already!

The first time was in 1998 I guess you were babies at that time but I was 13 years old. They came to Festival de Viña del Mar and I was in La Serena so I had to watch their performance on TV which was really sad.

The other time that they came I was away again! I was in New Zealand so I missed their concert again! I was so mad at that point.

Finally I had the chance to go to see them last year, it was amazing! I just loved it!! I went to the concert with two friends. I remember that it was really hard to buy the tickets. The website collapsed, after like half an hour I was able to get them. We got really nice seats. 

I almost forgot! I went to see them for the first time in 2007. I remember that at that time the fans (including myself) were crazy! screamed a lot.

Last year was different, we danced and sang. I guess it was because we are not twenty something anymore…
