EXAMPLE

When I was a child, I used to dream of being a truck driver. 
Obviously, my parents recommended me to study something with 'more future'. I never understood that.
After finishing my secondary education, I had to choose a career. I had a lot of possibilities: dentistry, lawyer, painter, etc. However, something  that I wrote in a copybook when I was in primary school was definite: I wanted to be a teacher of English. Coincidence?, destiny? I don't know. The only thing I am clear about is that I have never regreted becoming a teacher. On the contrary, I love working with human beings. My experience at this university has been fantastic. I can find nice people everywhere, and hard-working and respectful students. I I had to choose again, I would be a teacher.

I bought it five years ago when I needed to attend a conference and I wanted to record as much as possible. I use it for saving documents and information in general, I can check and send emails, I can also take good pictures of what I need. I use it mainly when I have to go away from my working place. I can be connected and I don't need a laptop for that. It is lighter and more comfortable and I can use it to play when I have some free time. Without it, I would be alive anyway but my life got less stressed when the Ipad appeared in my hands. I know that n...
