feel good
Today I will write about feelings. There are a number of ways in
which we humans are mentally affected by what happens around us. And when you
get to your adult life, a lot of people start feeling ill. I think nowadays stress is a number one
contributor to health problems. I tend to get stressed when I run late, and
this is more often than I would like to.
One thing I love to do to feel better is exercise. I feel
exercise, whatever it is, is the number one help for the body and soul. It may
have to do with the release of endorphins. I try to swim at least twice a week and do “pilates”
at least once. I say I try because sometimes it can be difficult for me to do
it, like last week I did little L. However, it is something that really
helps me feel good. Another thing I love is walking in big parks or a hill.
This year, I intend to climb a hill per month. There are other activities which
make me happy too, like playing the guitar (this is something I also want to do more
often) or watching a movie with loved ones but all in all.
Write about something that makes you feel good (anything)
Mention
Why it happens
How often you do it
Is there anything else you would like to do this semester.
Write a minimum of 200 words and 3 comments.

TENSES
Here are some examples so you use tenses correctly. Notice the previous post has a verb list and therefore, you can look at the verb and tense you want to use.
what I normally do:
Nosotros vamos a conciertos 1 vez al año/ Nunca leo sobre arte/ My mama trabaja en su casa.
We go to concerts one time a year / I never read about arts / My mom works at home
When I want to talk about a particular occasion.
En esa oportunidad yo fui al campo/ Nosotros estábamos cansados ese día/ Comió el pastel y se fue.
I went to the country on that occasion /We were tired that day/ She/He ate the cake and left.
About things that started in the past and continue to the present...
He estado bien cansada ultimamente/ No he comprado tantos dulces / He querido ir pero no he podido
I have been tired lately/ I have not (haven't) bought many sweets/ I have wanted to go but haven't been able to.
When I am talking about the past and I want to refer to something further in the past.
Ese día me di cuenta que lo había visto más temprano. / Hasta entonces no había tenido tiempo.
That day I realized I had seen him earlier./ I hadn't had time until then.
Conditionals
Si tengo tiempo, te llamare.
If I have time, I will call you.
Si tuviera tiempo, te llamaría.
If I had time, I would call you.
Si hubiera tenido tiempo, te hubiera llamado
If I had had time, I would have called you.
Modals

Modals
