Bye Bye ESO

This year has been a different year, we had a different teacher and differet ways of how to learn.
I enjoyed most of the classes because we had done a blog and I love doing blogs.
To this blog I had aplicated a lot of hours and I hope you like it because I do.
Starting the course I didn't like it very much what we were doing but during the year, the things had changed a lot and the projects too so it has becaome better ans better every day.
What I like it most was the horror project, because we spoke about an important persons in the cinema that I really like because I love cinema and watching films, thanks to Sonia I had learned a lot about that.
The projects of the school I don't really liked  lot, but the presentation that Sonia use in the classes motivated me and they made me cry because there was a page that says a frase very beautiful and it remembered the situation my sister is passing in. Whatever, at every project we had done in class had made me cry because I supose all the situation of my sister influencied me a lot...
This year in the High School the thing had changed a lot. I changed more or less my way of be, my classmates are not the same as with who I supossed to go with and the way of thinking.
What it doesn't changed is that I still beeing Laia, the short and strange girl as always I had been.
I expect for my future and the future of my sister a lot of health and luck for all the good and bad thing we hadn't already passed.
I hope things change a little bit, better said, change a lot in my next years here.
BYE BYE ESO!!! [ I'm not going to miss you a lot, just a little :P :) ;) ]

A NEW

 A Neanderthal living 120.000 years ago had a cancer that is common today, according to a fossil study.

What we call a tumor it's not just a new illnes from the fifties. It's discovered a neanderthal from 120.000 years ago bones that those has cancer. those bones were found in a cave of Krapina, Croatia discovered by US scientists. Untill this, the eldest bones that has founs with cancer had 1.000 - 4.000 years old by an ancient Egyptian.
Dr Kat Arney, a cancer research from the UK says: "Some people think that cancer is only a modern disease, but there's evidence from fossils, bones and mummies that it's actually many thousands of years old".
And It's true because I thought cancer increased with the mobile phones and other technologyes but I actually never thought at what time did cancer appeared. Now I know my answare and I'm proud to know it.
The tumor of the bone was diagnosed because of the medical radiologist from X-rays and CT cans. The cave was full of bones and skeletons, not just this one.
If it's found a skeleton with cancer, maybe we can found much more disease that our ancestors had.
If I were an antropologician I'm sure I could find more amazing discovering thing like that, it's awesome.

My trip to Mallorca was different from my other trips.
I went with my classemates and with our parents.
I'm not going to explain why but I'm going to talk how goos we stay there:
We spend there five days and every one of those we did different things and different parties. we took a boat for go and to return. We had time to do what we want and me, Vanessa and Marta went to take icecream and yogurths more than once too. We had a great time there including the discos and the karaoke.
We visit a lots of places and what I like most was the caves. an extraordinary caves non modificated. There the people who worlk there did us a concert on the water, with boats and with different lights.
The secons place I like most was a beautiful beach, with good views and a good place to took photos too.
Mallorca it's more or less a a tipical place of Spain but I can't compare a lot because as I say, every place is different for the things it has. Every place has that typical think that make a different between others.
It's a goos place to go and to vist, especialy the views...
Take tikets and check it by yourself.

I picked up the phone and heart, "It's Tom, I must see you at once!"

I didn't have time to say anything because Tom hang up the phone immediately.

I took all my things and I got in the car. I went to his hause. When I arrived there he was Waiting for mw at the front door. He ran to me and he held my arms so strongly that I had to shout. His eyes widely opened out of their orbits.

- What's wrong with you? you are hurting me!

- Ann, you have to help me! I don't know when... I'm scared... What should I do? How do I have to act?...

- Tom please keep calm. Breath. NOw let my arms. All right. Why don't we go into?

Once they were i the house Tom served a tea to me. Tom started telling me what was happening:

- Do you remember when I tell you that my wife was doing some strange things and that her actitud was different? Well... I found this in the bathroom.

Tom took a pregnant test out from his pocket. I was surprised! I couldn't imagine it. I still remember how the pregnancy test works. If there's one line it means that you aren't pregnant but if there are two lines it means that you are pregnant. The pregnancy test that Tom had taken from the bathroom had two lines. His wife was pregnant. He would become a dady.

-Oh Tom! That's fantastic! You are going to be a dad!

- What?! Oh my god. Does it say from from how many days?

-... For two weeks.

-Why hasn't she said anyhing to me?

-Maybe she has done it this morning and she left it on purpouse.

- Shall I call Miranda?
- I think you must prepare a romantic dinner. With candles and with a lot of love...
- Ok. What do you think I have to cook?
- What's favourite Miranda's dishe?
- She loves fish...
- Why don't you go to the fishmonger's ans buy some prawns, some monkfish, one or two lobsters ans some tagliatelle?
- It sounds perfect!
- And for desert? I think she would like "valencia".
- What's this?
- It's vanila ice-cream with orange juice.
- All right. I'm going shopping.
- Perfect. Good luck and please.. be happy! Not everyone can have a baby!
- Oh thank you so much! You have helped me a lot. Tomorrow I'll explain everything to you.
- See you tomorrow then.
- See you.

The purpose of this report is to think about if it's a good idea or not to remove the food and drink machine.

Pros:
Whn we finish the classes and then we have a break, the machine is excellent fos us to get energy to go on with the lessons.
It's a goos idea to have it because if we forget our lunch at home we can buy it for less price, not only sandwaitches, chocolate, juice, potatoes, sticks of bread and other groceries too. It's faster as the girl who is behind the counteen so it doesn't take time, on the country, it makes two jobs in one.

Cons:
of course the machine spends more electricity but we can pay this electricity with the money we put inside it. We have to say the truth, most of the food that is in there is junk food and chocolatines, wich can change our diet. Sometimes the machine doesn't work and we have to kick it.

Other necessities:
Besides if we quit the food and drink machines we can save this money and invest in ther things we need in the school. For example more fountains in the background, more benches, toilets... We can paint the school too as well.

Conclusion:
We can let the machine because for us it is good to take energy. We can quit the machine because it's a bad way to spend our money and instead, we can paint tha school or put new fountains for example.

Three or four summers ago I went with my family to Sevilla for two weeks. It was very special because we went to different places.
My ount Carme was who had said to go to Sevilla and the other mums liked it.
When my mum said to me that we would go to Sevilla I was so excited.
I was in a very special place where there were a lot of flowers and gardens. There, a lot of married people go there and take their wedding photos.
There was one atractive man there, and my mum and my sister told it to me. The man was so near to us that he listened them. The women of the man started to laught too.
We enjoyed a lot and we walked too!!
I hoppe to do another travel proximately. And if they, the family, could let me choose, probably I choose Alaska or Finland.

MY FAVOURITE LOVE SONG:       Life Is Beautiful.   By Vega 4

This song it's about a man who has "problems" with a girl. He wants to be with her and he says that they can be together because life is beautiful and he want to spend  time with her. He shouts to her to come back with him, that there's nothing to understand, just the time will make miracles and then they will be well with each other.

I found this song by a dance film like all the musics I really like listen to. This film is called Street Dance 3 in the following part (a romantic part) :

I hope you enjoy this song as I do.
Really sorry because the second video is in spanish.

Nowadays everybody have a mobile phone, elderly people, midle age, adolescents ans above all children. In fact, In my opinion I children gets mobile phone younger than they should.

I firmly believe that sons and children take control and are stronger than their parents.

On the one hand it's fine for young girls and boys to have a telephone because than their parents can know where they are, but on the other hand there are a lots of cons. For example, children don't really know ehat they want so maybe thay leave the mobile phone two or less weeks after their parents have bought it to them. Another reason it's just because they don't have the age to have a mobile phone. Who they want to call? It's not necessary to have a mobilephone, moreover because it's the age to run, to have fun with friends and enjoy their time playing with their classmates.

Owing to the telephone at that age, m ore than one child has problems with bulling, or stupid jokes and above all, the disconnection of the real world.

To summ up, In my opinion, children shouldn't have a mobile phone. They don't have the age and they aren't going to use it properly . We must try for them to avoid the way to connect them to the virtual world.

Why don't we try to have fun and play with them?

Simon woke up suddenly stopped what was the noise he had just heard?
He was in his room, actually, he had felt asleep while he was studing for the exam of Geography. Inspit of the noise that woke him up. The noise was like something feeling on the floor, like a broken window. Not as loud as someone breaking on ebut loud enough to break the glass.
Firstly he though that was someone at home and next he was thinking of the boys who were playing basketball in the garden in front of his house.
Afterwords he heard another noise: the door opening and more than two voices.
Owing to the dog, that was buarking, he couldn't hear well the voices of when had entered in the house.
Nowadays, the people enter to the houses even more when it's dark, whatever, Simon didn't want to stay in is room doing nothing. However, he was scared he left his room and started going down tha stares. THe thieves were a woman and a man. Simon looked at the living room and realised that the windows had been broken by a stone. And the door was oppened. He ran to the door asking for help and suddently the thieves called him by his name. He stopped and turned back to look who was shouting at him. They were'nt thieves. They were his mum and dad. They said to him why he was running. Simon told them that he though they were thieves. And the reason why all this mass because thay had forgotten the key at home and his dad had to break the window to get i the house and open the door.
Simon says:
- Why didn't you ring the bell?
- We did it but you didn't hear us. We waited for a long time but you didn't open us.
- Oh, sorry! I fell asleep while I was studying.
- Oh my Good Simon, What had I told you? Don't play videogames until three o'clock!
- I'm really sorry mum.
- Don't bother. Come on, help us to take the shopping in.
- OK...

Do young people today rellay know what they want from life?

All children want to be rich, want a lots of toys, want to go to the park all day... Other children want in the future be a teacher, be a vet or a hairdresser.
I don't think that they really want these things. It happens to all of us too. When we are in the adolescence we want to finish the Eso and finish studying all life. We want to be a person with a good job and find a good boy/girl to love him/her for life. Not just the teenaers want things. The middle age persons want to come back in time and study what they didn't stufy before. Some persons want to change their partner and others want to live life.
Ols people want to be young to do what they didn't do or simply to reborn.

What I'm saying is that every body wants things, but I'm not sure that every body wants what they say. From my point of view all of us want the happiness for everybody, want health and prosperity for all our family. If you don't think as I think keep thinking about that because I0m sure that I am right.
You can prove it or just to realise in this when you have someone sick near to you. You justt want the best for that person and then it is when you realise that health is the most important thing in the world. I have no doubt of it.

Why don't we keep thinking of what we real want?

NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS

This year I wish 3 thing not one more, not one less:
The first and the most important wish is my sister to get well. I hope the doctors know what she has in the less time possible, then when she'll get better we are going to do the things we couldn't do in those horrible months.
The second wish as imporant as the first is to spend more time with my family and the objetive to get on better with each other more than the last years.
The third wish not less important than the first is to have health and luck for everyone of my famiy.

Those are the wishes that I could like to make real in this year.

The objectives that I want to pass through in this year are:
The first is to have better character: not to shout to my famiy, so I'll try to speak them in a low and polite voice to them.
The second objective is to check an efford to look were I do mistakes in ortography in spanish.
My last objective is to study a lot english for prepare oneself to take the official First Certificate exam to pass it in two year time. I'll create a tipe of diccionary for the new strange vocabulary for then study it.

I chosse this foto because it shows that if the bridge that help us to cross te ocean for found and to learn more things ends, it means that it's the time to begin building the bridge for make sure we get all thing we want.
As I say... GO FOR IT.

COMIC RELIEF

The comic relief is like a break in the midde on a serius and a tragic moment in the scene, specialy in a dramatic moments. I remember in Rec 3, a spanish horror film, that I was laughting all time, I wasn't scared. I think that was my friend that makes me laught because he never had passed a horror moment, she is always laughting and I think that this is contageous... :)

SUSPENSE

The master of suspense is Hitchcock who appealed o audience for more than 70 years.
His besst movies are Jaws written in 1975, The godfather writen in 1972, Die hard writen in 1988 and Unforgiven writen in 1992.
Hitchcock use to put characters like villians who nowadays are psychopaths and sociopaths.
He was the first man who puts the subjective camera to revel the psychopaths characters and then the udience will imagine that they are the villian..

THE BEST HORROR MOVIE

For me the worst film I've ever seen is Paranormal activity 2. Not the one or the thert or the forth. The second because its the only of Paranormal that I've seen. You will ask yourself why I watched if I don't like that tipes of films, the reason is that I had to see it in englisg class a few years ago and I have to say that I couldn't sleep in a few of months... Just listening the title I start looking around if there's something around me...
If I have to choose what's the worst scene I think that I'll choose the moments when the small boy was sleeping because I didn't know what was going to happen. The worst is that It seems real becaus the actors did a good job and because it's like a true story because they are like the cameras of a house and for do the film they just take the reproductions and thats the why I'm scared all time... because it seems simply real.
Of course I don't have a favourite moment because I was scare, oh my God I feel like It was my last day in the earth.
For that persons who don't know of what this film is about I'm going to explai it very in a few sentences:
The film is basen in a house that an evil want the solu of a small boy, the family don't know what happen in the house till the moment that the daughter of the house find information in internet. Then they recognise that they had to quit the evil of the house.


As you can imagine I just take the video from youtube, I didn't have the courage for see it so... enjoy your selves of it.
