    The developed social system in Colombia was divided into the upper, middle, and lower classes. The upper class accounted for about 20 percent of the population who were the wealthy individuals. Individuals with European ancestry tended to make up most of the upper class. The middle class people consisting of Mestizos and Mulattoes had less rights and fewer opportunities but were still able to live relatively undisturbed lives. People in the lower class were usually Blacks and Indians. They were commonly mistreated, malnourished, and uneducated. Even today, whites are viewed as wealthier and more valuable than other ethnicities. All three of the classes tend to speak a more proper Spanish on the interior of Colombia opposed to the coastal…

    Madison Spence 17 February 2013 Spanish 2312 Professor Elsa Coronado-Salinas Santa Rosa de Lima The country of Peru is home to many holidays and festivals each year. From the New Year’s Day celebration to the Christmas day celebration, Peru has set aside an abundance of days to observe the country’s many historic events. A very popular holiday in the country is Santa Rosa de Lima which takes place each year on August 30. The holiday dates back to the 17th century and celebrates the death of the patroness of Lima, Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa was born on April 20, 1586 by the name of Isabel, but was later nick-named Rosa because of her looks and her rosy cheeks. She spent a majority of her childhood in the small town of Quive, in the hills of Lima. As Rosa grew up, she became extremely religious and started practicing very extreme forms of religion. She grew up to be a very very beautiful woman, but she came to resent her looks. She did everything to ‘undo’ her beauty. She fasted herself, cut her hair, and wore a thorn crown to divert attention away from her beautiful looks and towards God. Rosa wanted to join a monastery but her family was too poor to afford it so she moved away from her family and into a cottage she built herself. Rosa’s days consisted of praying and feeding and caring for the sick and poor people in her town. She sold flowers and needlework to support herself and her family. At the age of 20, Rosa was let into the…

    1. Some people in Veracruz say their kindness comes from their native culture. However, another reason is that they despise the government's approach towards illegal immigration and wish to take a stand. Locals don't agree that the authorities should deport the Central American migrants from Mexico. The Mexicans would not want to be prevented from gaining access to the U.S., therefore they believe the Central Americans should not be hindered crossing Mexico. You should treat others the way you would want to be treated. This is a completely valid reason. The residents put themselves in the migrants's shoes and imagine the brutality and suffering they endure to reach the U.S. Should they be in their place, they would hope that some kindness and…

    At the beginning of my French classes, my thoughts were that it was going to be hard but it wasn't. My Spanish knowledge helped me gain control of the language quicker. It was challenging, but nothing I couldn’t overcome. Whenever I needed help, I would ask my French teacher or classmates for clarification on what I was struggling with. In other words, I love learning and every little thing that I learn becomes part of who I am. Learning French was an amazing opportunity that my school gave me. This relates to the person that I am because, I love interacting with people and learning things from them, for example their likes and dislikes, where they come from, and getting to know the variety of people that live on this planet because we are all human but we aren't the same. We are all different in our own little ways, so being able to speak with other people who speak English or Spanish or French in my opinion is an enormous…
