200 years of Independence!!

September is a nice month of the year. Trees bloom, days are longer, temperatures increased, nature wakes up and all that create a happy atmosphere. If we add to that the bicentennial celebrating so we are many reason for feel us well. I like very much to celebrate the Independence Day and this year it is special because of our country will be 200 years old. I like our festivities called Fiestas Patrias, the folklore; music and dance and the food like empanadas and anticuchos. I think the bicentennial celebrating will be great but it is important that we does not forget to be responsible, for example we must not drive under the influence of alcohol.
In 200 years our country has had a important development, however Chile exist still poverty and too much injustice. The new generations and we have many things to do to create a better country.
I hope that the patriot spirit does not finish with Fiestas Patrias and it always remain. We prefer or value many times, products from other countries like clothes, music or culture, etc. and we have to learn to value our culture, traditions, people and respect us.
For this Fiestas Patrias I will be with my family, my parents, my nephews, my brother and sister and my boyfriend. I will try not to eat and drink in excess, but I don't promise anything. Maybe I am a superficial person but those days will be my holidays and I only want to fly a kite and to rest all day.
