One of the most beautiful experience I ever had.

  Three year ago, on 7th of July of 2014, I went to the concert I had been waiting for a long time: The concert of One Direction, my favourite boyband.The acting was in Madrid, and it was an unforgettable experience.

Firstly, I saw the supports of the concert: Abraham Mateo, a guy whose music I don't like very much, and 5 seconds of summer, whose music I love and enjoyed very much at their performance. Then, when 5SOS ended their performance, entered at the stage One Direction, and in that moment I felt that I was the luckiest girl of the world. My sister and I singed with all our strenght the songs they were singing. The concert was amazing and flawless. Those guys have an doubted talent. That day was one of my hapiest days of my life without a doubt.

Thesis.

  Thesis 1: I wouldn't like to life forever because I would see dying people who I love like family and friends and it would be horrible. Moreover, although you would live forever, the time would still be passing and I would get older and older, and when you are too old, there comes a time when you can not move or use yourself.

  Thesis 2: The main purpose of studying at university is that if you study something you like, you can find a job that is relationated with it and, as a consequence of it, you will like your job.

 Thesis 3: From my point of view, jealously and, sometimes, awful education are one of the traits which describe Spain.

 Thesis 4: I would say to my friend not to be shocked about other culture if it doesn't hurt anyone.

 Thesis 5: Being wealthy not give you success, because succesful (like being a great singer or dancer) can give you money, not unlike. Because if you are rich, you can buy whatever you want, but to me it is not success. To me, success is having people who love you by your side.

Black Friday.

The following Friday is Black Friday. It means that the prices of a lot of shops (clothes, electronic gadgets, book shops, shoping centres...) go down. As a consequence of that, so much people are going to go to those shops they want and it will be difficult to take the T-shirt or the jeans you have been waiting for. Despite that, I am going to go to my favourite clothes shop and I am going to buy the clothes I could. I will get up early. The sooner I go, more clothes I will be able to buy.

My weekend.

Hello, I am going to talk about my last weekend. On Friday afternoon, I went shopping with my boyfriend, because the friday before, the third of November, was my birthday and my friends gave me a gift card with 60 euros of my favourite clothes shop. For this reason, I was to buy clothes in this shop the last Friday and I could buy a lot of things. Later, at night, I went to have a good time with my friends and we went to a disco. We danced a lot and enjoyed each other.

On Saturday, by contrast, was a day of wedding. The grandparents of my boyfriend celebrated that they have done fifty years married, and they made a ceremony in the church and later we went to a restarutant and ate very much. When the dinner ended, all the family and I went to a bowlling alley. It was honestly a funny day, and the grandparents of my boyfriend showed that love can last forever.

Finally, Sunday was a borier day than the others two days. I stayed at home doing my university homeworks, studying, watching TV and watching my social networks.

Gun ownership.

Thesis statement: It was a good idea that people was a gun in their home, because no thief would get in in this house to steal. Thus, everybody would be safer.

The burning of forests and its treatment.

 The burning of the forests is someting that happens more often that we think and it is a horrible thing that we should try to avoid. We must realise that the nature is what give us live and oxygenate for living. When someone camps in a forest or in a natural space he or she is used to throw the rubbish, the rest of the food that the person do not eat before, plastic bags... things that are bad for the forest and for the enviroment. We must put on the rubbish in a bag and later thow it in a bin. Moreover, the worst thing that some people do is that they trown the cigarattes and then this is the moment when the forest is on fire. It kill the plants and trees and also it provokes a lot of pollution. There are times when people do it unintended, but unfortunatelly, sometimes bad people do this willfully, and we are the recient example in what happened in Galicia a few weeks ago. Someone burnts the forests knowing what he or she was doing. All must ftry to finish with this situation.

Exercise 11. Page 48.

 Write one or two paragraphs comparing or contrasting topics of you choice or one od¡f these.

 The Advantages and disadvantages of having a job while at university.

 Many people work while he or she is studying at university. It has advantages but it has disadvantages too. A principal advantage is that if you have a work you can pay te price of the university (that it isn't cheap). Also, if you have a work you can manage your own money and you can buy everything you want without asking anybody for money. You can also save more money to the studies that follow the degree (a master, for example), to buy a car, to indepence from your parents house... On the other hand, the obvious drawbacks with work while you are studying is that you have much less time to study because of your job. Moreover, you live more tired because your life is more stressful and you don't have energy for studying and you don't have so much time to study, a fact that can influence in your marks. So, I consider that each person must thinking about what is the best election for him or for her and always he must be objetive and see his situation for choose one option or the other.

Exercise 10. Page 48.

Advantages of studying in your own country:

- It is cheaper than living abroad.

Exercise 9 from page 47.

Write a comparison or contrast paragraph. Use either point-by-point organisation or block organisation.

Similitaries between Instagram and Twitter:

- Both are social networks.

- In these social networks you can communicate and chat with people all around the world and follow celebrities and famous people like actors and singers.

- Both are made for entertaiment.

 - On Instagram and Twitter you can express what you think or what you feel.

 - On both you can upload photos.

 - On both you can put if you like a publication or not.

  Differences between Instagram and Twitter:

- Twitter is older than Instagram. Instagram is relatively new.

- Instagram focus on upload photos and videos. By contrast, in Twitter you can upload photos and videos too, but it focus on writting instead of on photos.

- In Instagram you can edit your photos, in Twitter you can't do this.

- On Twitter appears the news of the day and the things and the themes that most of people is talking about, but on Instagram it doesn't appear.

Do schools kill the creativity of the kids?

Do schools kill kid's creativity? I had never wondered this question, but, if you think a bit about it, you can conclude that actually they do this normally. Since we are childrens, teachers want us that we memorize some texts and pages of the books and then we have to say in the exam the same as we had read before. Kinds are plenty of creativity and this medium doesn't stimulate their imagination. I think that as long as you understand what you are studying, this way of learn is OK and you can learn so much, but I sometimes consider that this mechanism kill the creativity of kids, because it not allow them to think by themselves. It is true that there are some subjects which promote creativity and imagination because they allow you to think by yourself and have your own opnions and ways to see some things. Some of these subjects are art, and the older we make the more creative are subjects, like citizenship, ethic and philosophy,(that are when we are teenagers)  Moreover, in the modality of Bachillerato "Bachillerato of scenic and plastic arts", the creativity of the students is very important. To sum up, I believe that the creativity in schools it isn't taken into account most of the time, but there are exceptions.

My opinion paragraph.

I would like to start this opinion paragraph by saying that Mark Zuckerberg's idea must be beneficial for refugees because it can be a great way to talk with their families and friends and to ask for help, which is the most important for these refugees. Moreover, if the refugees had Internet, they could amuse themselves and they wouldn't be bored. In summary,  I consider that the idea of bringing them Internet access must help them to deal better with their situation.

To my mind, providing that this medium to refugees to flee from war and poverty must have a drawback, apart from the advantages. I think that instead of using mediums to bring them Internet access, the volunteers should try to give refugees ways to find a job and consequently live like most people, with an individual home.
To sum up, I consider that this help has its right part and its bad part, but is is a great and original idea.

This week.

This week (since nine of October until fifteen of October) has been a bit boring. Nevertheless, there were only three years of class, because thursday was the day of the hispanidad and we didn't go to the university. In these days without classes I honestly took a rest. I met with my friends, wathching series, and on Saturday I went shopping to buy some clothes that I needed. But, however, I have done my homeworks.

English Estudies.

   Hi everyone! Today I'm going to talk about why I am in this degree and how I feel in this moment about it.

  The last year I have been studying second of bachillerato and it has been the hardest curse I have had in my life. I had to study a lot of time and sometimes I had to keep awake very late on the night to study for my exams. I passed all my subjects with good marks and then I had to make the university entrance exams in June. I had been studied for a month to these exams and finally I passed all of them and I get the mark of 11,49. I wanted to study at university English Translation and Interpretation, but the cut-off mark was higher than I have. For this reason, finally I couldn´t get in this degree and I had to enroll me in the degree I am, English Estudies, and honesty, I have reaslised that I like it very much for this moment and I don´t want to change degree.

I have to admit that I´m a bit nervous and worried about this degree because I think that maybe I don´t have the level that it needs in people that curse it, but I love English since I was a girl and I won´t give up.

Choose three topics from this list.Narrow each of the three down to a aparagraph topic. Then compare with a partner.

a. festivals.
b. friends.
c. my country.
d. dancing.
e. cars.

-Festivals:

I have never gone any festival in my life and I would like to go some of them. You can pass a few days with your friends enjoying electric, pop, rock or indie music and camping with them or stay in a hotel. The most exiting part of going to a festival is that you can listen a lot of singers and DJ's that you have nerver met. I'm sure it is a excellent experience which everybody who loves music and having fun should live almost once in their life.

-Friends:
Friends are one of the most beautiful things in life. They are the persons who can make you laugh, having fun, talk your problems, advice, have confidence... I meet with my friends all weekends to dinner, go to the cinema or go to some disco, and I love spending time with them. I always say that they are the family that you choose, and only true friends will stay with you all your life.

-My country:

Spain is the country where I was born and where I have been all of my life. I like a few things about Spain, like it gastronomy (actually, paella is my favourite food). Also, I like it architecture, sculpture and paintings. Instead of that, I don't like some customs of Spain like killing bulls. I think it is a savagey that must be abolished.

Introducing myself.

Hello! I'm going to start writting in blogger every week becuase I have to do this to my unviersity class, specifically for a subject called ¨writting practices in English¨. I have never done something like this, so I think it will be a great experience for me.

These three weeks at university have been great because English is what I have wanted to study since I was fifteen. Also, I have made some friends very quickly and I am very happy for it
