Something I do to keep fit

Hi :), today I'm gonna write about something that I do to keep fit

First of all, I'm not a person who practice sports or any kind of healthy activity... something like in my whole life I have played football one or two times... so what I'm gonna talk about now is something that I have started to do this year, a few months ago, and that thing is Yoga,  and I practice it here, at the university.

When I saw the yoga class in the list I feel curious about it because I didn't know anything about it and I didn't know anyone who practice it, so I took the class and I think it was a really good decision. At the beginning it was a little bit difficult and tiring because you need to breath correctly while you activate your muscles and stretchs your body, and obviously after that my entire body hurts... but after a few classes I started to enjoy it a lot.
I like it a lot because, at least in this class, you need to see your body as your house; you have to connect your mind with your body, and you have to do all the yoga positions (or ''asanas'' as they are known) with concentration and determination, because they are things that your body can do naturally, but you can't do because a lot of reasons that i'm not gonna discribe now, because that is another topic.

I practice yoga at the university twice a week, and when I have time, I do it in my house. I'm trying to practice it every day, at least the main five positions or ''rites'', because, like any other practice, you have to be constant to get results.
Now, after two months, I have started to notice effects in my body, effects like my back doesn't hurts any more, I sleep more deeply and I feel less tired... apart of that right now I can do a lot of new positions and my body can stretch a lot more.

A good friend

Hi ;), today I'm gonna talk about a good friend.
His name is Rafael and I first met him in my second school, when we were 13 or 14 years old (we have the same age), I don't remember. I entered that school late, when everyone were became friends, so for me it was a lot harder to make friends and talk to the people.
After a couple of weeks I started to talk with a group where Rafael was part of, and slowly we were becoming friends because we liked the same things and listen to the same music.
When I started talking with Rafael and the other guys was a little difficult because they all, in that time, were part of the scout group of the school, so that was the only thing that they talked about all days, but through the years, they stoped talking about that haha, and Rafael and the other guys in the group became my closer friends and until now we keep in touch and do things together.
The most that I like about Rafael is that he is a very simple person and he like the same things as me; When I go to his house we play videogames together all day, and we play with his dogs too, and when we are not together, we talk via Skype and play online games in the computer. Obviously we go to watch movies, or walk in the park together too, but we prefer to stay at home.
Today, I consider him like a brother because we know each other too much, and although we don't see each other too much because of the university, we keep talking and visiting each other whenever we can.
