One day of my great time.

I work as teacher in a Technological Institute of Cañar in the morning and I study English in Cuenca at night, therefore the hour of getting up it depends on my work schedule, which depends on the weekday, so the longest and tired one is on Thursday:

The alarm clock sounds, I wake up very early at 5 o’clock in the morning and soon after I get up, I get dressed, then I wash my hands, teeth and face. All this done, I leave home, take a taxi and I leave toward the bus station. I already there get on the bus and I leave Cuenca at 5:30, then I travel until Cañar. To Cañar arrive nearly at 7:00-7:15; it depends on the bus type and the busdriver.

Already in Cañar, at first I go toward the my parents’ house, greeting and I speak very brief them, there I have breakfast and later I go toward my work. I start to work at 7:30. I have been teacher in the Technological Institute “Andrés F. Córdova” for five years, and my students said I am a teacher enough suigeneris, friendly; without forgetting the quality of teaching, but allowing the individual growth, no the uniformity. In the free time I speak with my working colleagues about the different things, those are sometimes very amusing. Finally leave the Institute at one o'clock in the afternoon.

Again I go toward the my parents’ house, I arrive at 1:15; fair in this moment I take a shower, then I have lunch, rest and I am already clever to leave to Cuenca nearly at 2:30. When I travel, I sometimes sleep for half an hour and then I read a book that I usually take into my backpack. To Cuenca I arrive nearly at 4:15. So then I go toward my sister's house.

In my bigger sister's house greeting to her short family. I sometimes help to do their duties to my niece and nephew. Sometimes we have a cup of coffee of the afternoon, then I carry out my English task, I order some things and I enroll to go by bus to the University of Cuenca for my English classes. Sometimes before I go to my English classes I also meet with any friend and we talk about what we can.

The English Classes start up at 7:00 o'clock at night and they conclude at 9:00 o'clock. Inside my classes I find a little strange to communicate because in Spanish I join the words and ideas well, but in English it is broken when I can’t express my ideas clearly; something whether it is certain, with time and practices it will improve. While I lead to the bus stop and I wait one, I sometimes talk with any partner.

To my sister's house I arrive like at 9:25 at night, when I arrive eat something soft and I watching a little television, this if I go directly toward there; but I sometimes meet with any friend and we walk or we go to a bar, in this way the arrival to my sister's house is later.

Finally before I go to bed, I usually read at least one hour. I always have been interested about the books or novels on strange histories, existentialist, hermeticism, some spiritualists, some about latinoamerica, indigenist novels, French poetry, etc. I think they are good writers the following ones: Hesse, Nietzsche, Carlos Castaneda, Benedetti, Sartre, Baudelaire, Rimbaud, César Dávila Andrade, Benjamin Carrión, Agustin Cueva Tamariz, Blake, Séneca, among others. I hate the books about success, I find they lacking argument and the writers feel the humanity's false guides, also I think the same about the nationalist books.

I go to bed at 11:30 at night, and soon after I fall asleep near to my angels or demons, who knows about it? Maybe there is a certainty only, I am clever for a good Friday…

This is my day, however I think: “THE BEST AND APPROPRIATE SCHEDULE SHOULD GO IN AGREEMENT TO YOUR OWN PRIORITIES, IN THIS WAY THEN AS YOU MISTAKE TO DIAGRAMAR YOUR TIME AND LIFE…”

HOW I SPEND MY TIME

How spend my day

I spend my day in various activities such as; to study languages and music in the Conservatory, to play with my friends in a Jazz Ensamble, to read books and information about my career and to listen and to analyze music of all kinds and all ages.

Nowadays, fortunately I have more time than when I was a student in the University.
I finish my studies in the School of Arts of the University of Cuenca but I need to finish my thesis to get my degree.

I try to learn more and more each day, So I travel from time to time to various cities of Ecuador to study with famous masters and composers.... you know..... when some University or institution opens a course........

Consequenty I don`t arrive to the English class normaly; but I like studying English and I think that is very important to understand things like books, information of Internet, to go abroad, etc.

Well, Generally I wake up at 7:30 am, then take a shower and have my breakfast.
In the morning I work like freelance arranger and composer.
Now, I am working various plays for the Conservatory of Cuenca Choir and for the Symphonic Orchestra of Loja.

Is a “interesting job” because I have to create and organize some aspects of the nusic for example; I have to change melodies, armony and instruments for that the arrange or the play to become correct and great. (depens of the pleasure who commissionated the play)

I begin to work at 8:00 am, more less until 12:30 pm.

Then I have a lunch around 1:00 pm and I can watch the new for T.V.
At 2:00 pm. I begin my French Class; I am studying French because I think that the center of the music and and other arts is in Paris.
Maybe Before I graduate I will travel to Paris o USA….

Then I go to the Conservatory of music, I have classes at 3:15 until 6:15 pm.
After of the class of music I go to my English class, more less 7:00 pm ( it depends of my teacher)

Finally I back to my house around 9:30 pm.; before I go to bed, eat my dinner and watch T. V.
Also each night I work in my thesis; I´m advancing but is difficult and long.

I hope to finish my thesis in October and get my degree.

hOw I sPeNd My TiM3

My day begins when I am dreaming beautiful things and suddenly I began listen to a voice calling me. I`m awake "I don`t want get up because I`m very good in my bed", but I look at my clock (normally 6:30 AM) and quickly I get up, put on my clothes, clean myself up and eat breakfast then I go to the University ( I always try to arrive at time). I study Tourism. It is very interesting.

I take my classes Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM; Wednesdays I finish it at 10:00 AM and Fridays at 9:00 AM. But every day I take French classes from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. As you can see some days I have few times in the mornings. I spend this time doing homework and projects with my partners.

In the afternoon (after finish classes) I eat lunch in my house and take a short afternoon nap (It is the best I love do it). After I always do different things, because it depends if I have to do homework, go out with anyone or whether my nephew (he is two year old) visits us, I like play with him when he is in my house. At 7:10 PM I take an English class to 9:00 PM. It is very interesting because I can better my English (Sometimes I don`t understand many words). After my English class I return my house to eat the dinner.

Sometimes at the night I read some book, watch TV, listen to music or go out someplace. Generally I go to sleep at midnight. These are some thing that I do every day but you don`t think that I don`t do other thing. In weekends I do sport.

Minutes and minutes…..

......Maybe I only was spending my time in

...........a bad way, I think, I should reorganize
.............my life, my time, my dreams, my activities
................I don't know..... things like that. I'm going to
....................give you an example about my time, basicly,
............................my daly routines, I'm someone "normal",
..........................I think so, but, I'm not sure if my activities
....................................of each day are well done, because
........................sometimes I get bored, or simply lonely,
.............so tired or so exited..... I don't know exactly,
...........but simply it is my life, it is my time.
......Nowadays I`m a guy so busy because
of the university and also a subject called
“Auditing”……Before these days I used to
....have a normal life…. I mean listening to
........music, watching T.V., relaxing or things
...........like that, but three months ago more or
.............less, I began this story, somentimes I say:
.....................“I fed up !!!!” but I always say: without
..................................sacrifice there is not victory”….
...........................Before I used to go out with my friends

..............................for a drink, also I used to go dancing or

...................................phoning them, but now everything is
..................................diferent, because for example my day
...........................begins at 5:30 o`clock (it happens when
............................I haven't had long homework to do) I
....................take a shower, I have a quick breakfast
...................and after that I go to the university; I
.................have classes until 1:00 pm. Every day
...................in the afternoon I usually do a “SO
...................LONG” homework called “Financial
...................auditing” ( this is the main subject )
nowadays this one has 300 printed pages more or less… because each
....day my auditing teacher give us more and more homework to do.
........Sometimes I cannot have a lunch, dinner including sleeping,
.........and for this reason I cannot watch T.V., listening to music
.............or having a nap…. I really miss those things but this
...............situation is going to change because we have to
.................give our teacher the homework until June
...................9th. Now I`ll show you an example of
...................a day of my life before my “Auditing
.....................homework” and a day with this
........................one too... Oh! I forgot, I am
........................more busy also because
..........................I have english in the
............................evenings and also
.............................I have less time
................................to do auditig
..................................but I like
....................................this

It was my time before my Auditing homework:
