Applying for a job

First, an unemployed looks for a place to work. That job has to fit with their skills. To apply for the vacancy we must first create curriculum vitae. This has information such as name, ID, address, license, etc... Also include work experience. The curriculum can be taken in two ways to the job fair or job appointment, it may be printed or digital. The day of the application or interview, it is important to dress formally. The clothing must be in solid colors. Light colors might make the interviewer not to concentrate in us.
In the interview must be sincere. Lying in a question may cause you to loser the opportunity to work in the company. To apply for a position in short we should take the CV, be presentable and feel comfortable to answer the questions.

Irtanational destination

Orlando Florida
It is a good idea to go to amusement parks when you have summer break. You can go with your family, friends, couple or partner. If you prefer you can rent a car or take a tour with other people. When I went with my family, we rented a car. It is easy to find the places with a map. This country is different from our country because it is very difficult find places here in C.R and not so in the U.S.A.
There are many kinds of attraction parks such as Disneyland, Island of adventure, Sea World, Magic Kingdong, MGM and Universal Studios. You can also see other little amusement parks near some hotels.
In the park you can enjoy a variety of meals like corn dog, hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza and popcorn.
Orlando Florida makes you fly, feel like in a dream. You can live the funniest moment of your live there.

Restaurant review

Last year I went to Miramar with my parents and sister. My mom wanted to buy plants. My father has a friend who lives there and she showed us the entire place. After my mom bought her plants, we went to a restaurant. I like to eat pizza a lot. We went to a delicious restaurant on the mountain. They prepare pizza and all the ingredients were as fresh from the cow. The place smelled like nature. There was only one waitress, a cashier and a chef. All the staff was very friendly and helpful. The weather was very cold. That's the best pizza I've eaten in my life.

Letter

San José, October 25 th, 2010
Ms Laura chinchilla
President
Costa Rica
Dear president
I want to congratulate you for being the first woman to lead the country. You are a good example for all women fighters who want to succeed. I did not really like the publicity that was done to this match. It was based on gender that's why many people decided to vote for you. The subjects debated upon did not touch the country's major problems. The country has problems such as: roads in poor condition, poverty, unemployment, increased crime and others. Some of these problems are legacies of the previous government. I hope that you as President can solve the above mentioned problems. I think your experience will serve to organize and help the country. Thanks for your time.

Video games

My father bought one play station 2 seven or more years ago. During the first years my sisters and I played a lot. We played on holidays almost all day. It was much fun. We bought popcorn and sodas. My favorite’s games are Crash, Spyro and Tigger’s Honey Hunt. The last game that I mentioned is for children. We won the game like in a week. Tigger`s game is about collecting honey, secret areas, the checkpoints, the family photo album and some additional abilities. Spyro involves collecting dragon eggs. The play station is now used only as a DVD. Maybe we need to buy new games to reuse the play station.

Netiquette

Nowadays anyone regardless of social class has a cell phone with camera and mp3. This is thanks to the crime and also because many stores offer credit to their customers. If we run it is usual to use an mp3. About 10 years ago it was common for sportsmen to use a walkman or a disman. Within a bank we can’t use cell phones any more. It is forbidden to speak by phone and send messages. Many thefts have been caused by customers inside the bank who inform others outside for robberies to happen. A driver can’t talk on the phone, unless he uses his hands free. Some very modern cars have Bluetooth and this makes people get distracted listening to the phone conversation. This is because the sound is emitted around the car. There are many technologies that cause our distraction or disrespect. We must learn to use them correctly without affecting anyone or ourselves.

My community

My neighborhood is normal but I don’t like it. There are a lot of bad boys at night in front of my house. They like to smoke and use drugs. Sometimes my neighbors make parties. They make a lot of noise. I lived in Desamparados for 11 years. I live with my family. All the houses are different. There are some trees and a park in front of my house. In the corner there is a mini-market. Two blocks before the mini-market there is a bank. If you walk you can find a lot of places. Something positive is that we recycle and my neighbors too.

My ideal Job

My ideal job has to be related with my studies. I want to be a manager and owner of a company one day. It is the perfect job for me. You can be a leader and recruit people for business success. I would have a night club on the beach. Two years ago I was working in Puntarenas. There I worked with tuna export. Workers on the coast are very nice and humble. My night club would be fun and different. I hope to succeed and help others.

A little bit about me

I am a very friendly and nice person. I am 21 years old. I am studying the career of Business Administration at ULACIT. I also take an English class in the UCR. I live with my mother and my siblings. My mother is a homemaker. My older sister is a lawyer, her name is Erika. My younger sister and my brother are studying Public Administration in the UCR. My father lives in Limon and he works there since 2 weeks ago, that’s why he doesn’t live with us. I like to do exercise three times a week and every Sunday I go for a run with Erika. We always take one of our dogs to run. I like to go out with my friends. I don’t speak much on the telephone. I just say the necessary issues. I’m afraid of insects. My bedroom is always clean because I don’t want to see any ants or bugs.
