Well, we have already finished a very important stage of our life, the high school.
For some it will be a goodbye but for others I'm sure not, although next year many of us will go to different places.
This stage for me has been very important in my life and I will never forget it.
All projects, excursions ...
They have been incredible by your side and I would never change them.
Well this has come to an end, this will be my last post on the blog and the truth is that working with this project (the blog) I liked it a lot and I think it is very useful.
Goodbye I will miss you.
Bye!!!

SELF-ASSESSMENT
✓First of
all, I wanted to say that this quarter has not been one of the best, I have
dropped quite a bit in the English notes, and I think I can work harder, I
think that in certain aspects I have worked on the subject but it has not been
reflected in the notes.
✓Second, as
a goal for the next quarter I want to raise the grade, because I think I can,
with a little more effort.
✓And finally, it always happens to me that in the second quarter, I work less than in the others. So for the next quarter, I'll try to work harder to get better grades.
✓In the
aspects that I should improve, I think they are Translation, which continues to
cost me a lot and a little in vocabulary, in the rest, I must continue to effort
to try to have a high level, and to learn much more
