I am Sebastian

Hi, I am Sebastian B but my friends call my Se. I am a 12 years old student for some days because in several weeks I will be 13. I live in Cartage de Indias Colombia which is a beautiful city because of its history and wonderful beaches. I study in COJOWA or Colegio Jorge Washington in front of the beach, and I am a seventh grade student and my homeroom teacher is Mr. Hide and you can see his blog at http://mrhide7.blogspot.com/ which is very good. The school is very small but later it’s moving to a larger place. I usually wake up at 6:00 am; I take shower, dress up, eat breakfast and then go to school. And the school finally ends up at 2:30.
My life in Cartagena is very good. On the weekends I hang out with my friends which are Alexandra, Andres, Ana Carolina, Arnold, agusto, Catalina, Daniel, Eduardo, Isabel, Isabella, JD, JM, Julian, Juliana, lisette, Luis Carlos, Margui, Maria Angelica, Maria Jose, Maria Paullina, Mariana, Miguel, Natalia H., Natalia Y., Nathalie, Nohora, Paula, Paullina, Roberto, Sara, Sergio , Stefano, Stephanie, suad, susana, valentina, Valeria, Victoria to different part like Mc. Donald’s, campito, corral, Club Cartagena, and other places. On Tuesdays, Wednesday, and Thursday I have soccer practices on my school with the other middle school soccer members and my coach Anibal. For me soccer is the best sport and I like playing it. In the school team I am am a goalkeeper in which I am good at.

The sub-20 tournament in Paraguay is something that I am preoccupied. Where all the team of South America competes with each other. I am going for Colombia. Colombia is good the first match it won 2-1 vs. Argentina; the second match it lost 1-0 against Uruguay, and the 3 match it won vs. Venezuela the person that took us to the victory of this game was pino the best player of Colombia and I think of the tournament. Colombia will be playing against Chile and I hope that It win the game and the tournament. In European soccer F.C.B is my favorite team, this team has very good players like: Ronaldinho, eto'o, messi, and puyol.

Something I am really concerned about is the pollution. The industries, cars, buses, smoking, and more things are throwing lots of harmful gases to the atmosphere. When I talk about the atmosphere I include the ozone layer. These gases are damaging the ozone lager causing more solar radiation to reach the earth. During several years the ozone layer will be so thick that the solar radiation reaching the earth will make the ice on the artic and Antarctic zone melt, increasing the sea level and making some cities that cartagena that is near the shore sink.

Another thing I am concerned about is the Cartagena’s insecurity. IN the past years you can walk in the CArtagena streets without being preoccupied that something will happen to you. But right now Cartagena isn't insecure. People are robbing allot and you can not walk in a secure way. I think that this is happening because because the high average of unemployed people so to have something they have to rob to obtain that. They are normalling robbing cell-phones, ipod, and other valuable devises. In cartagena sometimes there are kidnapping people. One example is Fernando Araugo which was an ex-minister and was kidnapped for 5 years.
