Best blog and best post!

The blog that seems to be more original and more attractive is that of Josep Moré. I like it very much and I think that the initial paragraph is precious and very certain... 

Dreams are renawable. No matter what our age or condition, there are still untapped possibilities within us and new beauty waiting to be born."

- Dale Turner-.

I like the structure, I like the pictures, I like the photos, I like nealy of the things....

I don't know which will be the classmathes opinion, but I think Josep has a lot of probablies to win. 

I don't know what more to say, I think is it not necessary to speak very much, you must see and feel it directly.

At lasts, one of my posts that I like most, is one that I wrote two weeks ago and I love it because it makes me live again the experience and it seems that it's happening again ... in this post I'm speeking about Ona and Irene's birthday, "an unforgettable day"... and it's true, it was a perfect day!

Yesterday, an unforgettable day!

Yesterday was Ona and Irene's birthay. All his friends we wanted to make something special, different.

We were weeks thinking it, and finally we find a very original idea: To go in limousine for Empuribrava (thirty minutes) and later to end celebrating it in the beach! This was our idea, and we carry out it!

Ona and Irene were in "Punt de Trobada" eating with his families and we come there in limousine! They two remained of stone. I suppose that they were very surprised and so, so happy... When we were all into the limousine, with the music to ceiling, shouting and singing, It was looking like a videoclip of a famous song, very exciting! It cannot be said by many people who should have been raised in a limousine! Later, in order that the party was perfect, we end it by celebrating it in the beach all together! An unforgettable day, undoubtedly...

It comes the summer...

Google images

At least, it comes the summer! The days are longer this means "party time". I've a lot of plans for this summer: I will try to get my first job ( although I know that it would be difficult due to the crisis.. but however, I will try). It's no longer necesary waking up early and studying a lot. Insteat, my friend and me will pass long time at the beach or at the swimming pool. We organize tours with the bycicle or visiting neighbour villages. Having fun is our only objective... During three months we can forget all our stress and paints, and we can enjoy a lot! Summer is necesary to charge our batteries in order to be fit for next course! 

Song translation!

This is one of James Morrison's songs which I like most, but I love him and ALL the songs that the singer composes, because they are very romantic and calm...

If You Don't Wanna Love Me" - James Morrison

When you lower me down - Quan em baixis cap avall
So deep that I, I can't get out - Tan avall que no pugui sortir
When you're lost, lost and alone - Quan estiguis perdut, perdut i sol
If you don't want me to leave then don't push me away - Si no vols que me'n vagi, no m'apartis

Rather blow out the lights you can watch it all fade - Millor desconecta la llum i podràs veure-ho tot descoloritBut I'm going nowhere - pero no me'n aniré enlloc

I'm gonna stay - em quedaré

When you just wanna fight - si tu lluites

When you're closing your eyes - si tu tanques els ulls

'cause you don't wanna love me- perquè no m'estimes

I'm gonna stay - em quedaré

You can't push me too far - no em pots empènyer fort

There's no space in my heart - No hi ha lloc al meu cor

Where I don't wanna love you - on no hi hagi amor per a tu

When there's no, no storm - si no hi ha cap tempesta

Then how can I feel the calm? - com no podré sentir la calma?

If there's nothing, nothing, nothing left to lose - Si no hi ha res, res, res a perdre

Then what is this feeling that keeps on bringing me back to you? - Llavors què és aquest sentiment que sempre em porta a tu?

 

So I'm gonna stay - em quedaré
When you just wanna fight - si tu lluites
When you're closing your eyes - si tu tanques els ulls
'cause you don't wanna love me -  perquè no m'estimes

So I'm gonna stay, yes, yes, yes, I will - Per això em quedaré, sí, sí, sí que ho faré

You can't push me too far -  no em pots empènyer fort

There's no space in my heart - no hi ha lloc al meu cor
Where I don't wanna love you - on no hi hagi amor per a tu
If you asked me to leave and I walked away - Si em fas marxar me'n aniré

We'd still be alone and we'd still be afraid. - Encara estariem sols i espantats

I'm going nowhere, - No me'n aniré enlloc

I'm going nowhere.

'cause I'm gonna stay - Perquè em quedaréWhen you just wanna fight - si tu lluitesAnd there's tears in your eyes - i no hi ha llàgrimes als teus ulls

'cause you don't wanna love me - perquè no vols estimar-me

I'm gonna stay - em quedaré

All the tears that I've cried - totes les llàgrimes que he plorat

I can leave them to dry - no les puc deixar assecar

If you don't wanna love me - si no vols estimar-me

And leave them to dry - i deixar que s'assequin

If you don't wanna love me - si no vols estimar-me

Tourist interviews

A new and very interesting English project was going to the Figueres (The Dali Museum) and doing three interviews to differents tourists.
We did groups of three people, my group was: Alexandra, Andriana and me.
We find it a very good initiative and we did three interviews but none of them to English people: One  was to two French girls, another to a Russian woman and the last one to a group of teachers from France.
There we find very nice and patient people, but we find persons who where a bit antipathetic and they don't answer our questions, because they said: "I don't have time or I don't understand".

You can see a part of the interviws:

Where are you from?
1- Russian
2- France
Are you on holidays here? Are you having a good time?
1- Yes!
2- I'm not on hollidays, it's a schooltrip.
Why did you choose Catalonia for your holidays?
1- No, I chose València and Catalonia only one day.
2- Because my friend is a spanish teacher and we do that every two years.
Where are you staying?
1- At my friend's.
2- We are staying in Barcelona.
Are you with a group, how many people are you with?
1- No, I'm with my housband and my friend.
2- Yes, 49 students and 4 teachers.
How long are you staying in Catalonia or Spain?
1- 11 days.
2- Until Friday night.

Listen to a song

A free activity I've done, is listening to two songs and completing the missing lyrics, in medium mode:

I chose two beautiful songs: don't you lost me - Cristina Aguilera and Backstreet Boys - I want it that way.

It is not easy because in some moments because I don't understand what they say or they say a word too rapidly... But it was good and a new way of learning!

I've learnt the meaning of these words:

hartache: angustia
regret it: arrepentir-se'n
lust: luxe
neglected: descuidat

Book versus Film

The differences between the Book and the Film are easy to explain:

Google images

The time period is different: the book takes place in the XVI century and the film is around the XX century. The book is happening in the medieval village of Verona and the film happens in the New Verona, in the UE.

The film is a modern version of the book, nowadays with cars and high technology.

The book is addapted to the new English, but the film uses the original English, as the original book.

Google images

We can see many differences, for example: in the book, at the party, Romeo and Benvolio are wearing masks, but in the film, they are wearing dresses and costumes or another difference is that at the end, in the book, Juliet killed herself with a sword, but in the film, she used a gun. In the film all the actors use guns, but in the book, they all use swords.

My best experiences in Italy

I can say "Italy was the most strange trip that I have ever done". Why? Because I wasn't with my parents, and that was incredible! It was a very, very funny trip.. With a lot of laughes and good moments that I never forget!
It was very exciting new people, new country, new language... Italian people are a little bit crazy, they drive cars as if they are on the run!
But they are also very funny and Italien guys like joking with a female turists...
It was also my first trip with chip! Nearly 24 hours on the sea- no way to go out..
Every day waking up so early was hard, because during the night we were all speaking, laughing... Doing everything except sleeping.  But it was worse to do it because the day offerd a lot of interesting things.
The best thing was that we strenghend the relationship between us and the teachers and if I had the opportunity I would repeat!

Film: "The brave one"

One day, during the english lesson, I was watching a part of this film, with Alexandra and Andriana. This is my summary:

This film is about a couple, who is going to be married very soon. But a tragic happening crosses their plan:  A young criminal gang attracts them in middle of a public park. The man died and the woman survived with the trauma. She started to become anxious and frightened, and she didn’t get out of the house. She didn’t like to be with other people.

Weeks later, when she first time left home, she always imagined that somebody was following her… She got panic. This was the reason why she wanted to buy a gun. She didn’t have a license; she must buy the gun on the black market. From this moment on, her personality started to change. Her initial fear turned into aggression: One night, she was buying something at a gas station, when an exited man came in and brawled with the employer (his ex woman). The man killed her, but he didn’t know that there was another person inside. When he heard her, she killed him very startled. What she did first was taking out the tape of the security program and she run away…

Friendship

For me, it's very important to have a lot of friends and I have met most of them this year or in my four years in ESO... But the friends that I will never lose are Alexandra and Andriana. I knew them eleven years ago. We allways have gone together and even have travelled together....

Google Images

Find out what we're made of when we are called to help our friends in need - I think that when you need a friend in a difficult moment and he doesn't help you, he's not a real friend.


You'll always have my shoulder when you cry - That's a very important think in a friendship! A friend knows you better that anybody other, and you can tell him everything... But in the bad moments, he has to comfort you and support you, for whatever you need...


You can count on me cos' I can count on you - You can't expect more than you give... When you aren't happy, you need a friend to help you, but when a friend needs your help or support, you must be there for him.

If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea... I'll sail de world, to find you - This only would do it, true friends! 


If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see... I'll be the light, to guide you - In our life, we have got a lot of bad situations and we can be sad a lot of days... But when we have a very good friend, this bad situations are not so bad and we can forget that for a seconds and speak of another things and we can be distracted!

Stick up for you - Imagine you have falled out with one of your friends or you have dumped with your boyfriend, the most important thing that you need in this moment is support and laughing a lot to forget this bad days that you are having.

The pianist - Sinopsis

That was one of the saddest movies I have ever seen. I saw it at the "divided class".

Google images

The film is about the Second World War and explains the experience of a Jewish man who must live in a ghetto specially for Jewish persons. He was in love with a "German" woman who was married. He escaped from the ghetto thanks to a friend. He met his love and her husband and they helped him. They hit him in a flat but some  neighbours saw him - therefore he must escape again....he went to a left house and hide again in the attic. Meanwhile the Nazis killed all the Jewish people of the city, he was one of the only survivor. One day, a German coronel discovered him but instead of killing him, he asked him to play the piano....It was in memory of his Jewish wife and children who were exterminated by the Nazis. Finally and due to the situation, the were getting friends and the German Coronel brought him bread, marmalade and clothes....When the end of the war was near, the pianist ran out of the house to welcome the Polish soldiers but as he was wearing the coat of the German Coronel and the Polish soldiers shot him because they thought he was a German Nazi. Fortunately, he didn't die and they discovered that he was a Russian. When the German soldiers were all caught by the Polish Soldiers, the one who helped the Pianist tried to get in touch with him to get some help, too...When the Pianist went to the place, all the German Soldiers had already left....

MY FAVORITE CAR

When I'll be 18, I want to wake up and see my new MINI in front of the house. This is the only gift I wish..The colour is not important, but it MUST be a MINI....I am dreaming of this car since I was 14.....My parents told me that if I get very good notes, they are willing to do it....

And then, with my new MINI, my friends and I will do a lot of trips whereever....(paying petrol between all of us - naturally!)....With my new car, I will drive to the University, I will travel to visit my family and I will help my grandparents with their daily needs. So everybody takes profit of it.

MY FAVORITE FILM

The last film which I liked a lot was "Tres metros sobre el cielo" (three meters over the sky). I liked this film because it represents the feeling of my generation, a mixture of adventure, first real love, relation-ships, society differences....It was about an impossible love because they had too much different characters - he was of a lower society and she of the high society. She was very correct and he did a lot of illegal things and made a lot of problems. The actors are very smart and popular in Spain, and they played their roles very well. I saw the film three times and I never tireof seeing it again.

Self- evaluation of my oral presentation

My oral presentation was together with Alexandra and Andriana. We explained  in detail the life of Alexandra's grandfather, which was funny and exciting although he had also bad parts - as everyone, as you and me....

We are naturally not English and in out native language, the oral presentation would habe been much more better. But regarding the circumstances, we all three think that we did a good job. We were very nervous when we did the representation - therefore we didn't look our notes but fortunately, we knew the story of memory and made the most of it.

Have a look at the final video of the presentation....

New Year's Resolution

1. 

   GOOGLE IMAGES

   To get better notes and study even more
   Although I'm not a bad student, I have some problems with my subjects....above all with Latin which is a very difficult language. Apart from that I have some concentrations problems, I don't know what's happening, may be it is normal when you are sixteen??????
2. My first job this summer 
   At least!!!! also for being sixteen!, I am legally allowed to work!!!! This is very exciting, not only for earning your own money but also for feeling "free" and self-suffisant and for knowing that after having done my first job, I can fulfill my 3rd resolution....The only enemy I have is my own shyness...but however, I will make it! (I hope that although being in the middle of the most serious economy crisis of Spain, there will be jobs available)

3. After my summer job, 1 week holiday with my friend in Mallorca
   My big dream for this year is doing 1 week holiday with my best friends in Mallorca - and the most important thing: without parents! We are already planning a lot of things, looking for flights, hotels and so on....and naturally we are thinking about beach parties and having a lot of fun.....the most difficult thing will be to convince our parents to let us go....it seems that they don't trust us or they thing we are too young....But I think if I am old enough to to a job I'll also old enough to travel on my own, or?

ADELE - MAKE YOU FEEL MY LOVE

This song describes the true love a women feels for a man and even the love she can wake up in the man. It describes her most deepest feelings, sincere and honest attitudes towards the man. She says she will do whatever to make him feel loved. And when he's desperated or the whole world is against him, at least he will have her love. These are pure and romantic feelings.

A experience of my life.

 A travel to Granada

I’ve been to Granada with my friends Andriana, Alexandra and her sister, Elisabeth.

Elisabeth was 20 and we were 15.

Google Images

It was last year in summer and we were very bored… Elisabeth came and proposed us this extraordinary idea and we could not refuse it!

We asked our parents, we made plans and we collected enough money. We were very anxious to live this experience!

It was not very difficult to convince our parents, because they relied on Elisabeth and on us.

We stayed at the hotel “Granada Center” and it was the most beautiful hotel of my life.

Next day in Granada we went to the beach, to the shopping centres, to the shows, to the Alhambra, etc.

We went to Granada for seven days and I hope we return again!

My best surprise

In 2001, my father gave me the biggest surprise of my life. One day, when I was five, he rang at the door with a little parcel. And inside was my sweet dog Pineda, only four weeks old. I was really happy. Now she is 11 years old and she is another member of the family…

My first time in Camp Nou

That was the first time I’ve been in the Camp Nou. It was eight years ago. I went with my parents, they’re very fanatic. It was a really exciting experience because everybody was shouting so I started to shout too and people were very surprised.

Google Images

In 2004 I became a member of F.C Barcelona - 89796 is my member number. And since then I go every two weeks with my father to Barcelona to watch the games. In 2006 I went to Paris because of the Final of the Champions League – unfortunately I must wait outside of the stadium with my mother because we had only one ticket and naturally my father used it. Meanwhile, some hooligans started to make some trouble and we had to run away with the help of some police men. Our next plans are to visit Munich in May during the Final of the Champions League 2012 with other family members…
