OUR DAYS AT THE UNIVERSITY.
 When we studied at the University, I used to travel for 2
hours to get there. I used to take one bus, the metro and
one “pesera”. We didn’t use to have computers. We
used to get information only from books and our
teachers. We used to study very hard in the week.
Teachers used to smoke in the classroom. And on
Fridays we used to go out to dance and drink.
Sometimes it was a problem because we didn’t use to
have cell phones and we couldn’t call our parents.

ACTIVITY: A PERSON I USED TO KNOW...
I remember my friend José, I met him
at
High school, we used to study
Administration.
We used to have many friends, but
we were best friends. He used to get
angry with everibody. After school we
used to go downtown and do many
things together. We used to visit
many places.
The last time I saw José was after we
returned from Los Angeles, California
in U.S.A.

When I was 12 years old I used to
go to a park near my house called
Los robles in Mexico City. My
brother, my cousins, our friends and
I used to go there everyday to play
sports and ride our bikes. It was
fun, we used to spend hours there
until evening. One day we moved
to Iztapalapa and we never went
there anymore.

ACTIVITY: AN ACTIVITY I USED TO DO…
I used to study English at The
Relaciones culturales Institute in
Zona Rosa, Mexico City. I used to
study one hour everyday. I loved
going there.
I loved studying English. My
classmates were great. My teachers
were really good. I remember my
teachers, their classes used to be
fun! I started the intermediate level
and I stopped going there. I don’t
remember why.
