Tired...

Today I felt tired all the day, although I didn't do anything. 
In the morning, when I woke up, my stomach felt weird and due to that I decided not to do P.E. so I didn't took my equipment to school. But even without doing P.E. I felt tired. And in the afternoon I started to feel stomach cramps and a headache.
And when I was in my way home, the bus where I was made a huge noise (like a BHOM!) and the driver told us that the bus were damaged and we had to leave and wait for the next bus.
All the buses in Barreiro are old so sometimes this happens and that's why I wasn't that surprised. The problem was that I was tired and wanted to get home as quickly as possible and I had to wait for 10 minutes for the next bus to come.
As soon as I got home, I took a medicine and after a while the pain was gone.
Now I'm feeling tired and sleepy so I'm going to bed.
I hope that the day tomorrow would be better.

Learning Foreign Languages

I like learning different languages. But I can only learn what I like. In my school I have English and French classes but because I don't like French I can't learn anything in the class.
I like Japanese language and I've been studying it at home and I can say for sure that I know more of Japanese than French.
The reason why I want to learn Japanese is because I like Japan and their culture.
I also want to learn Chinese and Korean and recently, in my traineeship, I found out that I like German too. In the hotel I had two colleagues who speak German and I often heard them talking with clients and I liked how the language sounded so I want to learn it.
I've found a language school not so far from my house where I can learn German, so I'm thinking of going there next week to ask some questions about the course. I'm really excited about learning German. *-*

About School

I'm taking a reception course and I'm on my second year, so there is only one year left to finish.
My school is in Lisbon so it's a little far from where I live. I have to catch three buses and a boat to cross the Tejo river. One bus in Barreiro and two in Lisbon.
In my course I have two traineeships. One is in the second year and the other in the end of the third year. My first traineeship was in the Hotel Açores Lisboa and was from 22nd of March till 2nd of May. I still don't know what grade I'll get, but maybe 15 or 16 in 0 to 20. It was only six weeks of traineeship but, I learned so many things, I really enjoyed working as a trainee in the Hotel Açores Lisboa.

Hello!

Welcome to my blog!
I'm Sofia and I live in Portugal. I'm Portuguese but I'll write my diary in English. I know that some sentences that I write may contain mistakes so I apologize to anyone who reads my blog. I'll keep practicing so that I don't make many mistakes. :)

In this blog I'm going to write about my hobbies, school, among other things.

I'm sleepy so I'm going to bed soon. Tomorrow I have to get up early to go to school, around 6:40am. Happily there’s only about two months left until I go on holidays (^_^)
