Vinicius Mello

SHARING LIFE STORIES by vini

In 1992 my grandfather was born. His name is João Mello, he is a doctor and he is Brazilian. And there are nice stories to tell about him.

It was a day at the end of the 2ºworld war, he was in the concentration field locked with about 30 men he didn’t even know. They all had numbers written in their hands. He was around 12 and 13 years old, the German told him, that tomorrow he would take a shower , but nobody ever returned from the showers.  The next day he woke up and there about 20 German soldiers in the field, instead of 70. They didn’t know why that happened. But as fast as the guard left they managed to open the cell door. They got sub machineguns (close quarter guns) and killed the rest of the German at the field and ran to hide themselves outside the field, some of them climbed trees, others inside caves. My grandfather climbed a tree, and stayed around there two days, and then the Americans marched shouting for them that the war had ended he found his parents at a field near this one, they took a boat and came back to Brazil.

                           About Me   By  Vini

My name is Vinicius, but people call me Vini. I was born in São Paulo (Brazil) at 2.000. I am 13 years old. I am kind of tall and thin, my hair is short and brown. My eyes are brown too. I usually play video-game, I have got a PS3. I have a sister, she’s 16 years old, she’s kind of bossy, but I don’t mind it. My mom isn’t nice to cool with me, every time the fault is mine. And my dad is boring he’s always working.

I’ve always liked playing video-games, it’ s my favorite activity, it is my hobby. I’m really into it. I can’t stand doing the shopping, it’s boring. My favorite sport is soccer, but I have to practice a lot. I can speak English enough to communicate myself with an American. People say I’m good at video-games, but I’m not too good at Math.

I study at Colégio Santa Cruz, I’m on 7º grade, my favorite subject is Art, because we just keep drawing during classes. At my school I’m not allowed to eat during classes, or bring my cellphone to class. I can’t play at my Ipod during the classes.

In my free time, I play video-game or I watch T.V. I usually play my video-game. I’m really into it. Sometimes I play with my dog, his name is Luke. We usually play Throw&Catch. I throw a toy away, and he brings it back to me.

My plans for the future, is to finish the school, and then I am going to make a film maker course, I really enjoy making movies. Or make the game maker course. I’m not decided yet. My dream is to be like Steven Spielberg. But a big part of my life is about games. But both of my dreams are made of American stuff so I have to learn a lot of English.
