Talk, no matter what...


By Isabel Leticia Manzutti

In January 2015 I went to the beach with my parents. My grandmother and her second husband went with us. I was very excited with the idea. I really love the beach. It was my second time going to the beach.
We went to a beach in Santa Catarina. My mum drives a school van. So, we used the school van to go to the beach. The trip was awesome. The van is big. My mum removed one row of seats and placed a mattress on the floor of the van. So, I could sleep there comfortably during the trip.
When we arrived at the beach it was very sunny. It was hot. It was beautiful. As soon as we arrived, we went straight to the sand. There, I met two girls. They were playing on the sand. I got closer to them and tried to talk. But, there was a problem. They didn’t speak Portuguese. They were Argentinian. I don’t speak Spanish. But I tried. I improvised words to talk to them. I could do it because Portuguese and Spanish are a little bit similar. The people who passed by, thought we were all Argentinian. My mum heard people commenting about it. We played on the beach and we also played in the house where we were staying. It was very cool.
We stayed there for one week. When I left the girls would still be there a bit more.

TWO CATS

One cat seems to be bigger than the other. I can see two cats sleeping. It is raining outside. It is cold. It is an apartment. The owner of the cats like to read. The owner of the cats like to read and drink hot drinks. The place seems cozy. There is a window behind the cats. There are drops of water on the window. The cats are lying on a woollen blanket. The cats have their eyes closed. There is a lamp over the book and the cup of tea. Through the window we can see that it is a little bit dark outside. The cup is full. The book is open. One cat is brown and white and the other cat is darker brown.
