September 18th, for Eduardo Muñoz

I like this date(ww). It’s my favourite month, season, etc. Fiestas Patrias means a lot of things for me; happiness, party, share, etc. It’s the anniversary of the first national council of government (WE), but it’s an excuse to celebrate the first step for a repulican life. We have two holidays, the 18th and 19th September. These days we do a lot of things, we play typical games,(P) like flying a kite, rayuela, and______(Mw) a greased pole, etc. Also, we eat typical foods (WF), overall(WW), barbecue and empanadas. And we drink a lot of things, but the most typical____(Sm) that(Nn) we drink(Nn) are chicha and red wine, but if you want to do all these things, you must go out to “fondas” in O’Higgins Park. When I was a child, I lived with my uncles, aunts(P) and my grandparents in a big house(P) and we eat a big barbecue for all the family. Nowadays, we still meeting(Wt) us(Nn),(Nn) to eat a big barbecue,(Sm) maybe we will meet in my house. My favourite 18th… maybe___(Sm) was last 18th, because I went out to Curacavi with my family, and we eat(Wt) and drink(Wt) a lot of things. Also, I went out to my grandparent’s house and also(Nn) we eat(Wt) a big barbecue… but before of(Nn) these dates I was(Wt) celebrate the(Nn) Fiestas Patrias in the “Fonda FAU”, where I danced(Wt) and drunk(Wt) too much…
