Something Special

Something special I have is a stuffed animal that my boyfriend gave me. It is a very soft white tiger plush, and it smells amazing. My boyfriend gave it to me without planning to (it wa a spontaneous gesture). his mom had bought several stuffed animals to use as prizes in a raffle, and one of them happened to be "goku", the white tiger. We both fell in love with it at the first sight, so we decided to keep it. We named goku after the main character of Dragon Ball, one of our favorite series.

Goku has become more than just a plush toy to me; it’s like a source of comfort and emotional support. Whenever I feel anxious or stressed, whether it’s because of an upcoming test, a bad grade, or just the pressures of daily life, I hug Goku, and it immediately helps calm me down. At night, when my anxiety is often at its worst, having Goku close by makes a huge difference. Holding it tightly allows me to relax and fall asleep peacefully, no matter how overwhelming the day has been. It’s a simple yet profound reminder of love, care, and the little moments that bring us happiness.

I can relax and feel safe, knowing that Goku is more than just a toy, it’s a piece of my boyfriend’s love and care, always there to comfort me. Sometimes, I even catch myself talking to Goku, sharing my worries or just random thoughts, as if it were a friend who’s always ready to listen. It might sound silly, but having something tangible to hold onto makes difficult moments feel less overwhelming.

Goku has also become a part of my daily routine. Every morning, I make sure it’s in a spot where I can see it, and at night, it’s always within arm’s reach. It’s not just about anxiety; Goku represents a sense of stability and reassurance that I can turn to whenever I need. Even during good times, its presence reminds me to appreciate the little things that bring joy and comfort into my life.

CULTURAL RADAR - CLASE 2 INGLISH VI

On My Radar: Vashti Bunyan's Cultural Highlights Today in class I read an article about Vashti Bunyan, a singer-songwriter born in cultural hotspot London, and it was fascinating to see what resonates with an artist like her. The article offered an intriguing insight into her world, highlighting a Scottish railway museum, a much-loved painter, and a forgotten American musician... The aspects of culture discussed ranged from music and art to places and literature. What stood out to me the most was her mention of the song “Roving Woman” by Connie Converse. The story behind the song is both tragic and mysterious: Connie Converse, an overlooked songwriter from the 1950s, disappeared without a trace in 1974, leaving behind only her music. The song captivated Bunyan when it randomly played on Spotify, and she expressed how it cleverly reflects the societal views of women during that era. I find it particularly interesting because it highlights how art can emerge from obscurity to touch l

 A Fun Day Out With Friends Last weekend, I had the most incredible day with a group of close friends that I've known for years. These friends, Sofia and Atenea, have been with me through thick and thin. Sofia and I met in college during a group project, Atenea was a childhood neighbor who became like a sister to me. Over time, our bond has only grown stronger, making every moment we spend together special. We decided to take a break from our busy lives and have a fun day out. After some discussion, we settled on going to an amusement park that none of us had visited before. The anticipation was high as we drove there, laughing and talking about everything under the sun. The weather was perfect, with clear skies and a gentle breeze a great start to our adventure. Once we arrived at the park, the excitement kicked in. We started with some of the most thrilling rides roller coasters that sent us soaring through the air, spinning teacups that had us dizzy with laughter, and even a hau

2 Photos of moments in life

  This photo is from 2009, when I was about 5 years old. My dad took it at my maternal great-grandmother's house. She was an English teacher and even became a school principal. My great-grandmother had a huge house with a corridor that led to an inner garden full of plume flowers, which stand out in the background of the photo with their lavender color.  My father took the picture to draw me later; he draws exceptionally well and has an incredible talent. I don’t have a photograph of the drawing, but I can describe it: it’s done in gray tones, drawn freehand with graphite, capturing every detail of me and the background.  Currently, my great-grandmother's house belongs to another family, but I still pass by it often since my grandmother’s house is connected to it through a door.   Here I am with my high school friend in Papudo. We went there for our fourth year trip in December 2022, at that time, I had already turned 18. It was the first time I traveled without my parents, jus
