I arrived to the EF campus of New York on september 23rd and I am staying here until february 9th, therefore I’m staying here for 20 weeks. This is my 14th week and my experience here has been good. When I was in Chile I was so excited because I was going to do an exchange but when I arrived here my point of view changed. During the first week the only thing that I did in my free time was cry. I was so sad because my life was different. I missed my family, my friends, the food, my bed, etc. Later everything started to be easier. I accepted that this is my new life just for 20 weeks and after that I go back to Chile. Thinking about that helped me a lot. Now I have adapted to life here, but of course I’m still missing a lot of things.

One of the things that I like the most are the clas...

Too much screen time Technology is something very common and useful that has evolved for cover our needs. We can find it in everything and when it has been a solution for everything like communication, entertaining or education. But for the last several years it has been turning a problem. In nowadays, kids are the most of the time in front of their screen than in front of their books or toys. And it's not wrong that they play video games, even they can increase your abilities and your concentration but it's all about the time. I have to admit that in one day on my life I spend a lot of time in my phone. Maybe 3 hours or more. But I can 'survive' without it. Also I like play video games in my free time but I never do it because I'm always doing something so I don't have time.
