Then and now
Then
When I was 9 years, I was very fat, the head was more around, I used to be about 1'55m and I always more tracksuit. I loved the cartoons, I used to pass hours and hours watching the TV but usually, I used to play with my friends to games (in the computer or in the street).In summer I used to spend all day swimming in the sea with my cousins and sometimes I had lunch in the beach. When I was a little boy, I hated the music for some reason, one of the foods I hate was sausage. My favorite activity used to ve swimming, but also I used to play tennis and football.
Now
I'm still a litlle fat (but less), my head is slimmer, I am about 1'78m, now I usually wear formal clothes (I don't wear the tracksuit all days). I love going out with my friends, I love the computer (my dream is a computer science) and I still love swimming but I don't go swimming as before, also, I love the music and the sausage. I hate the football. My favorite activity remains to be the swimming but I'm doing less activities.

A holiday to remember
Hi, one of the best holidays of my life is in Ubrique, in July of 2010 (summer) with my uncles and my cousin Ruben, I went because they invited me and I accepted, of course. We went by car during 4 hours, it took very long but my cousin and I we talked a lot during the travel. We stayed in the hotel 3 days, during these 3 days, we were swimming in the pool, we visited Ubrique, we launched outside of the hotel and we mount in a boat.
The places were nice and the food was very delicious!, but the hotel didn't convince me, it was a little bored. In the evening, we were resting in our rooms and we watched TV and played computer. The holyday was very cheap, because my uncles invited me in all things, and we didn't accept my money. I didn't buy anything in Ubrique; I didn't see anythig interesting to buy. I recommend Ubrique because is an interesting town and it has many places to visit.
