INTERVIEW

A few weeks ago I went to figueres with my classmates and we interviewed some people.

In my case I interviewed a English women. She was in holiday, and she was stayed four days in Girona. She said that she was having a good time in Figures.  She likes Figueres and the Museum Dali. She also like catalan and spanish food.  She want to come back  again. She don’t speak Spanish but she explained me that his daughter study Spanish. She and her friends are going to visit Barcelona.

In my opinion it was great and I liked to do this project. It was difficult to find people who want speak with me and Xenia because  they didn’t want to lose time.

EASTER HOLIDAYS

This year is the last year in the high school and my classmates went to Italy for a week. I didn’t  travel with them because my parents weren’t happy whit me and they punished me.

At the beginning I was very angry but finally I understood that and I  agreed. Because I think that It is a good way to learn about my mistakes. 

So I had two weeks on holidays. The first days I did all my homework and studied a lot for my exams.  I also spent a lot of time with my mother and I helped her for prepared her travel to Colombia and We went to Barcelona to bought some presents for my family in Colombia. I played paddel tennis with my father at the evenings and I met whit my friends and we spent a great time. 

My long Easter holidays, wasn’t so extraordinary but It was good and I could relax myself.

BOOK VS FILM

We read the book Romeo and Juliet in class then we looked the film. After this I can found many differences between the book and the film:

- The difference more obvious is the film is more modern than the book. In the film the characters and things are modern and we know about the places. But in the book, we can imagine the places are older than on the film and the characters are medievals.

-  The dance scene is different in the book than on the film, because in the book Romeo and and Benvolio appears with a mask but in the film they appears with costumes.

- Other difference, in the film the characters wears and fight with swords but on the film the swords are replaced by guns.

- The dialogue is other difference between the book and the film, because in the book the English is easy and understandable but in the film the English is old and it is more difficult to understand.

I think that are more differences between the film and the book, but I can’t remember about them.

FRIENDSHIP

I think friendship is very important in life, because when you have a real friend you are happier and you feel good with yourself. For me a real friend is who you can count in important moments, sometimes your friend can’t stay whit you physically in bad moments but you can feel your friend in distance if the friendship is real.

In my opinion find a person who is the light to guide you when you are lost in dark and who gives his shoulder when you cry is the best thing in the world.  But this is very difficult to find.  

In conclusion FRIENSHIP is more important than love, money or material things.

The song Count on me of Bruno Mars, explains very well  a real friendship.

VALENTINE'S DAY

I have done three exercises and I learn more vocabulary of Sant Valentine’s day. This exercises are funny and amusing for learnt more about 14^th of February.

TENGO GANAS DE TI

 This film is  the continuation of 3 metros sobre el cielo, in this film there is a pure love, but this love turns impossible. The couple is extremely in love but his love became strange for parents of the girl and they have to separate. In this part the couple meets again. They have another loves, but they aren’t true loves. The couple finally goes back. It is a very cute film and I recommend it.

In our oral-presentation I used a power point and I put enough photos and that helped classmates understand better the presentation.  I think we were very nervous but the presentation was good. We can talk more fluid and occasionally we have read our notes and this isn’t a good thing. We used words that all classmates know, and our grammar was good. But We need to improve pronunciation and studding a little more what we have to say.

EXPERIENCES IN MY LIFE

One of the experiences in my life is when I was 11 I went to Colombia. I was born in Colomiba but I moved to Sapin when I was 4 years old and I didn’t know this Country.

I travelled alone because my parents gave me this travel for a present. I travelled one month and half in summer holidays.

In Colombia I stayed in my grandparent’s house. I visited a lot of places in the city where  I was born and other cities. Also I went with my grandparents and some cousins the other house of my grandparents in the mountain for four days. I had a great time in this house because it is very nice and there are a lot of animals and exotic trees and plants. In Colombia these plants and trees are normal and common but for me they are exotic. When I returned to the city also I have a great time whit my cousins because we went to aquatic park and other parks for children. 

When I did this travel I was very happy because I have a great and funny holidays for summer but I didn’t thought what I have learnt and know in Colombia. But now I’m very grateful for knew more about my country and people was there. Although I think I doesn’t know enough of my country and family I have there.

Other experience in my life was in the last summer. Last year I started to rowing in Empuriabrava team with some friends. In summer we participate in league. I like sports but I didn’t like competitions. In  this league of rowing myself change and I decided to train hard and win the next league whit my team. I think these change occurred because rowing it’s different to other sports and now i love it. The leagues of rowing are different because are in diferents beaches of Catalonia. This is my first league and I have a great time but I will win and have more fun with my team.

One bad experience in my life was the last year. The last year my best friend change a lot and she neglect school work and she didn’t study, also she fail many subjects and finally she has to repeat the school year. I was her friend but I knew that I have to study and I don’t change like her. And now I’m in 4^th and she is in 3^rd and our friendship changes a lot, we are friends but we don’t talk as before. Because she change herself and me too. After this I think I don’t change by anyone.

A DAY IN MY LIFE

A typical day in my life is:

I wake up at half past six o’clock, then I brush my teeth, I have a shower and I dress.  At seven o’clock I have a breakfast and then I brush my teeth again. Then, I take the school-bag and I’m ready to go to school by school bus. 

At eight o’clock, I start the school and I do three hours of class and after that we have a little break. Then I do two hours more of class. At half past one, I have dinner whit my friends in the high school. At half past two I go back to school because I have two classes more. After these classes I go home by school bus.

When I arrive at home, I eat whit my brother and my mother. After that, I usually go to the gym, and sometimes I go to English academy. At seven o’clock more less I go back to my house and I do my homework, when I finish the homework I have dinner whit my family. And after that I have free time. At eleven o’clock I brush my teeth and I go to sleep.

THE LODGE'S SECRET

The Lodge were a happy and cheerful family, but they were hiding a horrible secret. 

Mr. and Mrs. Lodge were architects and they were very busy. They had three children and they lived in a mansion.

One day, the children were playing hide and seek, and the youngest daughter went down in to the basement. As she was looking for a good place for hiding, she found a suspicious chest.  She continued playing with her brother and sister, and she didn’t say anything about the chest.  After that, the youngest child started to have lots of nightmares about the chest, she dreamt that ghosts and monsters came out of the chest and haunt her.

One night, as she was going to her bedroom, she heard her parents talking in their bedroom about the chest.

Her mother was asking her father if he thought the children knew about the chest. He said that probably not, but just in case they should move it.

The day after the children hearing her parents conversation, she saw her father burying something in the garden. 

After that, she was curious, so she explained everything to her brother and her sister. They all went to dig the chest up. The found the chest, it was very old. It was very difficult to open, but they finally opened it, and they discovered. It was full of dead people’s body parts and a lot papers that looked like documents.  As they were about to read them, they heard their father behind them. He couldn’t believe that his children were discovering his secret. He couldn’t let this happen, so he took a gun out of his pocket and shoot them.

WE FOUND LOVE

Yellow diamonds in the light

And we're standing side by side

As your shadow crosses mine

What it takes to come alive

It's the way I’m feeling I just can't deny

But I've gotta let it go

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

Shine a light through an open door

Love and life I will divide

Turn away because I need you more

Feel the heartbeat in my mind

It's the way I’m feeling I just can't deny

But I've gotta let it go

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

Yellow diamonds in the light

And we're standing side by side

As your shadow crosses mine

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

We found love in a hopeless place

Diamants grocs a la llum

Y estem al canto de l’altre

La sava ombra creua la meva

El que es necesita per tornar a la vida

És la forma en que ho sento y no ho puc negar.

Pero ho haig de deixar anar.

Hem trobat l’amor a un lloc sense esperança

Hem trobat l’amor a un lloc sense esperança

Hem trobat l’amor a un lloc sense esperança

Hem trobat l’amor a un lloc sense esperança

Un raig de llum a traves d’un porta oberta.

Dividire la vida i l’amor

S’allunya perque jo necessito més

Puc sentir el batec del cor en la meva ment. 

És la forma en que ho sento y no ho puc negar.

Pero ho haig de deixar anar.

Hem trobat l’amor a un lloc sense esperança

Hem trobat l’amor a un lloc sense esperança

Hem trobat l’amor a un lloc sense esperança

La sava ombra creua la meva

I love this song because is energetic but at the same time it’s so soft. I decide to put this song in my blog because the video it’s incredible and I like clothes what Rihanna wear in it. Rihanna is one of my favorite singers.

The graphic shows the types of intelligence predominate in me are Kinaesthetic (Body Smart), Logical (Number Smart), Intrapersonal (My self Smart).

I agree whit that, because I like the numbers more than the letters and words. 

I don’t agree with Kinaesthetic is predominate in me, because I love the sport and physical activity but I’m not a very athletic or fit person. In the future I want to be more fit and active.

 In the case of intrapersonal type of intelligence I agree, because I’m not a talkative person and sometime I find it hard to express myself.

Also I agree whit I don’t have the Music Smart or Picture Smart, because I hate and I’m not very good at.

In the future I want to be an architect, interior architect, interior decorator or similar because I love these type of work.  These careers and jobs are compatible whit my intelligences. I think . If I do interior decorator or interior architect I’ll contribute to the society by decorating beautiful rooms and innovate in the interior of rooms.

AN ANIMAL IN ME

The tiger is a member of the Felidae family, is one of the biggest animals of the cat family. It lives in Siberia, Russia and Asia.

In the wild, tigers feed from other animals mammals, they are carnivorous.
The tiger’s colors can be yellow or orange and black, black and white or only black. They can swim very well and run very fast, when they hunt.  These animals can live 10-15 years in the wild but the tigers in captivity can live five years more. Although the tigers in captivity can live more, I don’t like see tigers in zoos because they aren’t happy, they must be in the wild, in his habitat.

The tiger is my favorite animal, because it’s very beautiful and in my opinion is one of the most elegance animal.


It is a territorial, solitary and very active animal. I think the characteristics we have in common are the activity and sometimes I’m a solitary person like the tiger.

IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING

My challenge this year is pass the year whit good marks and learn a lot.

After the high school I want to study more, for this I’ll work very hard this year.

I think fourth of high school is very difficult, but whit concentration and hard work I will pass.

The problems I think I can have are distractions and temptations with my friends when I will study. But the solution is easy, I will concentrate only in the work of school.

Another dream or challenge for this year is to learn a lot of English and a little French. I think the problem I can have is not enough time but whit organisation I think I can study this languages.
