ď‚„ What
makes a relationship work?
M
any people ask themselves how to make a
relationship work, but not everyone finds the right answers. Here is some tips you may want to learn. First you need to know that a good relationship requires time and effort from both sides. For example, if the man does not want to collaborate is not going to work. Now, you might think why time is so important, well let me tell you why. A good relationship does not come from one day to another. Second, share your passions. It is important to have common interests. But also it is necessary to have your own. Finally, a good communication. That is the key to solve all problems. For example, if something is bothering you it is important to let him or her know, so you can deal with it together. To conclude, remember, a relationship involves two people, both of you need to cooperate and keep it positive. ď‚„

Relationships By
Kendall Cabrera People have different thoughts about which is the key for having a successful relationship. There are three basic tips couples should follow for having a good relationship. One of them is trust because if your couple is going some place, you have to give him or her their space, you don’t have to ask who did you go with? when you ask those kinds of things your couple is going to be mad because you don’t trust him or her, and that’s when fights start. Also trust is important because you can talk about any topic with your couple, without being afraid he or she tells you something that you don’t like. Common interest is also another big factor, because you will enjoy a lot more your relationship and you will be able to do things you love to do with your couple and this makes your relationship stronger. Another important aspect is to be open minded; try new things with your couple. Maybe this last factor is the most important for having a successful relationship. You have to show interest in your couple, like things he or she likes, ask how their day was, send him or her a text message of good morning or good night and once in a while tell him or her something special, like why you like to be with her or him. These things may look a little bit stupid, but your couple is going to appreciate these little details. It’s important to show your couple how much you love her or him every day, but you have to be creative every time, because that will keep your couple happy and he or she will show more interest in you. If you follow this simple advice you will have a good and long relationship.
What
makes a relationship really work? Some
people think that what makes a relationship really work is love, it is true, but I
as a person considers that a good relationship consist in having a great communication, because that covers all parts of a relationship, like love, tolerance, sex and specially faithfulness. Love is the base of a relationship, experts say that a couple that is really in love can affront more problems together than any other couple. However, being tolerant is the real benefit that a couple could have, because if they can be tolerant with each other they could spend more time having a good moment, and less time fighting with each other. The last one but not the least important point is sex, as you know more relationships are having physical intimacy before the marriage, some people think that it could harm the relationship, but it isn`t true, because it could help you to meet more your couple before getting married. Finally, if you are in love with someone, try to be with him, maybe you can have an amazing life together.

The Media
“We
live in a world where we are bombarded by information and we need to feel communicated with the world, but we have to keep up a balance. Most people have at least one way to be communicated, being the most popular the “smartphones”. Also, many families spend a lot of hours in front of a TV; they think that it’s important to know what is happening around them and I wonder, have they forgot to share time with each other? I believe that we live truly distracted and put a side those things that should be important for us like family, so, we need to have a balance and live our life as it is, amazing!” ●

Swapping
people hear about exchanges, but a lot of people don’t know about swapping homes. Swapping homes consists in exchanging your house with a foreign family for months or even a year. This is an opportunity to learn another language. If you like the museums, art, photography, etc.; you can visit amazing places in the country that you are living in. Finally many people who did this exchange learned about different cultures, they enjoyed the local food, the festivities and a lot of people met other people, made new friends and then they wanted to go back again. You can choose a peaceful place or even a picturesque place. There are a lot of reasons why you can make an exchange.. Don’t miss the chance!

Why
Swap?
It is nice to have the opportunity to visit different countries around the world without spending on hotel or renting houses; that is the idea of swapping homes around the world. There are many reasons to practice that kind of activity, some of them are saving money visiting different places, making friends, learning about a different culture, and other reasons. Let´s start talking about the first reason, saving money, because you don´t have to pay for the nights during your vacations or the period of time you want to spend in the different country, then as second reason we have the opportunity to visit different places in the world, no matter if it is high or low season. The third reason is that you can make different friends, because if you are going to be in a different neighborhood, you will meet the people around you and lastly but not least you will learn about a different culture. What are you waiting for? Live the experience yourself. Marilyn Jiménez
suCCess Success, a really difficult word to define in a single word. It covers many factors, and each of them describes the real meaning of what success is. It cannot be defined easily because what success is for me, for someone else may not be. But I will attempt to define in one word:
happiness .
Real success is when you find a deep happiness you had never felt before; it´s when you are able to go through a large and narrow tunnel without knowing the final destination, but you finally saw the light which meant you overcame any obstacle. It´s mainly when you feel complete in every area of your daily life.

World Cup Success
At
the beginning of the world cup nobody around the world gave a penny for C.R. because of “The group of death”. But when C.R. beat Uruguay things changed, they touched our pride and they called us “Costa Pobre”, we played as it had never been done and C.R. beat Uruguay 3 to 1 .For the whole world it was an amazing surprise, no one believed this, then it was the time for the game between C.R. and Italy this time it was a different match, because of the category of Italy but “Los Ticos” were bigger and better in all the aspects despite the fact a penalty was “stolen” from us, we scored in the opportune time and it was enough to win the match. So we are the surprise and in the world cup we are making history. We beat two world champions and we are “the death” in “The group of death”.

Who
wouldn’t want to live here? In the middle of a beach there is a strange kind of rock island, where some extravagant man has his home. This coast island has something in particular that makes it look different, it has the shape of a hand, oh yeah, a hand! At the top of this enormous rock hand, we can see the house of the man, with some trees in the background and with two birds flying at the top. The sky looks blue and the clouds are white, the ocean is really calm and the sand beach is white as the foam in the water. In the middle of the hand we can see a relaxing waterfall that starts at the base of the thumb and ends in some rocks in the ocean. Also, from the base of the hand there is a cable car that is used to transport people to the top, actually it looks like the cable car that is in Brazil, but obviously smaller. Finally in this mystical picture, we find a bird flying over the beach, showing the freedom that represents the image

On the left I see the ocean and on the right one part of the mountain that looks like fingers pointing at the ocean. In the middle I can see where the waterfall crosses de mountain, and in the foreground there is a spectacular beach. Where the waterfall ends, there are rocks and a lonely eagle that looks like it is fishing. At the bottom there is grass and green trees. By Dennis López
Pictographs Speculations
about the past.
The first two drawings might have meant couple. The husband went to a hunting area and the woman wasn't happy so she might have followed him to the woods. When they were walking it started to rain and they might have gone to a village. After the rain the man walked to a river and he must have caught a fish for lunch. There were 2 roads, one short and one long. The woman might have taken the short way to collect fruits and the man the long one to hunt for jellyfish, he could have looked for it to eat. When he was already satisfied he walked home. The next day he escapes again and he must have gone to the hunting area, but now he caught a deer. When he went back home the wife might have said "I don't want to be with you" so he must have left home. By Ronny Josué Solano
Pictographic A
story
Drawing sequence
The
first drawing must have been a couple. The man must have gone to the dry forest in order to haunt something to eat. He might have passed through dry trees and rainy places to get fresh food. They must have seen tepees with sick people. On those days they must have walked to the river to get fresh fish. There was a yellow drawing next to the fish could have meant a resting person and the next lines might have meant that he rested for one and a half days. He must started walking as soon as he woke up and he might have seen a weird animal and haunted it. He could have eaten the whole animal and then he took a nap. When he woke up he must started to walk until the next village, but he might have keep walking until the lake where he saw a deer and he must have killed it. He might have carried the deer to his tepee and his wife with the little kid.

The ideal JOB
Kevin Arrieta Salmerón
The
job you choose must be linked to your personality. My ideal job would be Engineer because I am organized, I do not dislike numbers and I am good at working under pressure, when I’ll have the opportunity to work as an Engineer I’ll try to do it the best I can. But the most important thing is enjoying the job because that could be something you’ll do for many years, so if you do not enjoy it, you’ll probably have problems.

studying to be a dentist, I like to wear an uniform, but I don’t like a job that has a dress code and I can't go with my sneakers or jeans. Sometimes I want to be self- employed, I want to have a flexible schedule, because in the future I want to spend a lot of time with my family, if I work for someone else I might have to work over time. I want to have my private practice, but also I wish to work for Colgate, because one day a doctor who works for them told us, that we can work like a researcher of new advances and I liked that idea. Besides, I can travel a lot too!
The ideal job
In
my opinion the ideal job is to be paid for an activity you really love and you are also very good at. I can't imagine myself working 5 or 6 days a week just in order to earn money and then waste it doing what I really like but once a week or in some cases once a month. Unfortunately that kind of lifestyle is out there, driving people crazy workers who hate their jobs. I mean, if you are really good at something and you also feel that it is your passion why don't you make it your job? Aren't there any job opportunities for that activity you really love? Well, it is not a barrier; in fact it is an excuse. You can create your job with your possibilities. And off course you can create needs on people, needs they didn't think they had. Do want you love and do it with passion. I'm pretty sure soon it will become your job, your lifestyle and even your source of happiness. In my personal case, I want to inspire people. I want to show them that nothing is impossible for us (That's also the reason why I am a juggler). I love to share knowledge with people so, I found in teaching the best way to convey this message to others. To sum up, I want to be a teacher. But not just an academic teacher who has to be paid in order to keep him in a classroom teaching people who don't really want to hear him. I want to be a teacher of everything, a teacher of life. The one who people seek proactively in order to get knowledge to live better and happier. I guess my ideal job is to be a self-developer.
