Recuerdos

Hi
It has been 4 years that I have come to Mexico. We came here in 27th march, 2002. Appa came in 2001. Amma says that I was little when I came here. Now I am tall. We ran to catch the flight to our city from Mexico. I didn’t know anything in Spanish when I came here.
To come to Mexico we came through Mumbai, Paris, Mexico city and Monterrey. There we were received by appa and Ivan. Then we went to our city. When we arrived there, we went first to the house of Sra Lourdes, where appa was staying. There we ate and picked up appa’s things. Then we went to the house of Dr. Jesus, Dra. Yolanda. After sometime we finally went to our house. The house was small but nice. Now I live in a bigger house. Appa had bought all the things for us, but he had told us that he didn’t buy anything when he was alone.
After three days a girl child was born to Monica, she is appa’s boss (Dr. Jesus) daughter. Now she is my friend, her name is Maria Fernanda, but we call her Fer.
The first week we went to the MUSEO del DESIERTO, WALMART, CATEDRAL, CENTRO, CARREFOUR, MUSEO de las AVES etc. now I have gone many times to these places. But now Carrefour isn’t in Mexico.
Before starting school I went to a curso de verano (summer school). There I learnt new things. There I met Monica, the niece of Maestra Alma. I was in manualidades and artes plasticas. From that year I have gone to curso de verano every year, I like it very much. I also went to swimming class. There I managed to speak to others in English, because I didn’t know Spanish.
On august, 19, 2002, I went to school. I was very happy, because it was my first day of school. I didn’t know Spanish. But in my class I am the first all these four years. I have been here for 4 years, I have many friends. I am very happy.

March of the Penguins

¡Hola!
Last week I saw a movie named “March of the Penguins”. It was about EMPEROR PENGUINS. It was said that, they live in Antarctica. The surface of Antarctica is about 98% of ice. Emperor Penguins population is estimated about 40.000. Their weight is 70 lbs & its height is 3 ft and 8 inches. They walk 1.7mph. 75% of the time they are in the water. They live for 20 years. Their feather, white & black is to protect them from predators.
We think penguins look funny but they look regal & are curious. They walk in line to avoid falling. The older penguins lead the way.
Their reproduction time is in June. After egg laying, the female passes the egg to the male and it goes to get food for the newborn. If it doesn’t return when the other mother penguins return, the father leaves its newborn alone & goes to get food. If the mother return’s the father passes the newborn to the female. Father penguins take care of the egg. If it touches the ice, the egg will be broken. So they always keep the egg in their legs. If the egg breaks or if the penguins lose their egg their relationship breaks up. The directors were there for 13 months to shoot this film. This is a very good movie. I liked it very much.
