How Tp Write A Letter Of Interest To A Sorority

My left arm


You do not realize how much you need something until you lose it. Relax, this is not going to be another of those insufferably sappy Christmas texts on the loss of innocence, a family member or loss of values. This will be much more pragmatic. There is a film entitled "My Left Foot, if you have not seen, tells of an Irish artist who could only move his left foot and learned to paint and write with him. Perhaps he learned to do other things rather than impedes decency and I'd rather not imagine. Lets leave it there. If I had to start filming a movie, well de pedirme una de esas sillas plegables con mi nombre impreso en ella, titularía mi película "mi brazo izquierdo” pues después del accidente he aprendido a hacerlo todo con la mano izquierda. Lo se, no tiene mérito, hay millones de zurdos en el planeta. Vale, de zurdas también. A lo que me refiero es que he aprendido a hacer las cosas con una sola mano. Cosas imposibles a primera vista como abrir una botella, abrocharse los botones o discutir con los amigos. Me han comentado los médicos que el brazo derecho no será totalmente funcional  hasta dentro de medio año, mas o menos. Dicen que entonces podré volver a hacer cosas normales con las dos manos pero creo que he decidido volverme zurdo. Yo nunca he hecho cosas very normal because I'm not too normal. Happy holidays to all that you have two hands operating. Especially lefties. Vale, also left-handed. Left-handed to left-handed ...
