The best blog

The blog that has surpised me the most is the one from Josep Moré. I loved the structure because it has a lot of nice photos, and I think that it helps the view. The posts have a good text, a good written and interesting topics that makes it easy to read. I only can say that in this blog are better the photos than the text. I don't know what else can I write about this blog, because it's almost perfect!

My best post

Beauty is the post that has more importance for me. I described how I feel a lot of times with my horse. I've chosen this post because of the photo (that have reminded me that it had an important meaning for me) and the content.
 This one is the most personal post I've written. When I read it, it makes me remember everything related to this topic.

Port Aventura

The 16th of May some people are going to Port Aventura with the high school. I'd like to go with them, but I can't. Every year happens the same. I can't go there because I have the final journey of Horseball, and I have to play the most important match of the league. I'd like to go to Port Aventura, but I think that where I'll be, I'll have so fun! I'm so sure!

Imagination

I don't know what else can I write here... There're many things I cannot explain but I'm going to explain what's everybody doing at the moment. Everybody seem that they're working, and the teacher is going person to person to help us. And all the time is like this. But today is going to be a boring day, I think... I'm very tired and now, when I finish this class, I'm goig to read a  book, and there's a possibility that I get asleep, because this week I'm not sleeping very well.

Let's change the topic... In a week's time is going to be my birthday. My family is asking me everyday what I need or what I want, but I don't really know! I'm not going to tell the anything, I want a surprise! I'll write my presents in a new post!

Summer is here!

I only long for June, because on 22nd we finish the school! We're all waiting for this day. Now in class we're not concentrated at all, because it's hot and the only thing we want is to go out.
This summer, the first holliday's week I'm going camping and then, on July, I'm going to go to Lisboa to play, as Spain, the Horseball European Championship. And I suppose that there're ging to be more important events but that now, at the moment, I don't know that I'm going to do.
And after that, let's begin the school again.

The hunger games

On Spanish subject we had to read a book, an optional book, and I chose "The hunger games" because some people told me that the history was interestig. Two weeks after I chose the book, I saw that there was the film on the cinemas! I couldn't trust it, I wanted to watch the film, but I was leal and till I didn't finished the book I didn't watch the film. And I think that it ws good because on this way I could see the differences between the film and the book, but there weren't many differences. Here's the trailer:

Something disastrous

Last Sunday I went to play a horse-ball match to Vic, and it was a typical spring day: for a moment it was sunny and then, suddently, it was raining a lot. When it was the match time it was very sunny, incredible, and I let the mobile on the cleaning box (a little box) and I closed it. I went to the camp and suddently it started raining a lot, amzing. I wasn't worried for the mobile because I wasn't thinking on it, but when I finished the match, I opened the box and I found it full of water. I couldn't trust it, the mobile didn't work anymore! And I still without understanding how the water came into the box.

Tourists interview

We interviewed a couple from Detroit who were in a cruise to Barcelona and they came here, to Figueres, to visit Dali's museum. They made a stop here. They're going to stay one week in Catalonia and they don't understand anything of Stanish or Catalan. They don't even know the english level from Spain because they just arrived one day ago and couldn't check it.
They like Spanish food and the people too, they think the most people are friendly.
We didn't ask them which places they like best from Spain because they didn't visited any place yet.
Finally, they supposed that they'd like to come back.

And that was all my interview to this people. It was difficult to find people who spoke english, but the most of times, it was because they didn't want to lose time. I liked to do this project.

Italy, a special country

The 25 of March we left Catalunya and we went to Italy. Once we were on the Firenze's airport, some people from Vueling company were singing for us, for the people who arrived there. That was because that was the first trip Barcelona-Firenze that Vueling did. They recieved us so good!
We visited Pisa, Firenze, Siena and Roma. The most beautiful of these places, in my opinion, was Firenze. I loved this city, I don't have a special argument, but it was what it surprised me  tk e most.
We had so fun, we laughed a lot.
I don't have a special thing to tell because everything was icredible. We met some people from other places, a lot of Catalan people that was in a trip in Italy.
I think that I'm never going to forget this special trip.

Friendship

An incredible thing that some people don't give any kind of importance, is the friendship. If you have a true friend, you're covered of gold. You have to take care about him, because once you've lost the friend, you'll find in a difficult situation, maybe you can have more friends, but this special friendship you had with him. If you lose this friend, you would like that the things could come back as they were before.

You always have to have someone there, beside you, when you really need it, because you know that, happen what happen, you'll count on him.

That's a song that talks about this topic, and that's more or less what I've told you:

Book vs film

First, we read some chapters from the book and then we saw the film. There are many differences between the film and the book, and here I'm going to write some:

• In the fancy dress party, on the book it says that Romeo and Benvolio were with a mask, but on the film they were dressed with costumes. For example: Juliet was an angel.
• We have seen that in the film they all used guns, and that Julied killed herself with it, but on the book, they brought swords, and all that in the film was represented with a gun, on the real story was a sword.
• Everything is much more actual on the film: the places where happened important things, Montague's and Capulet's houses, ... By the way that it's written on the book, we can imagine that all the places were older than on the film, and we can know this for the adjectives that they've used.

On the book I imgined Friar Laurence different that appears on the film, the first time I saw this character, I couldn't imagine that he would be the friar. I was very surprised.
Another thing that impressed me, was Mercutio's behavor, i had in my mind that we'd be a pacific man, but we saw that he was a "problematic" boy, he always was looking for fighting.
Maybe there are some other differences, but now I don't remember about them.

Beauty

Sometimes, when you feel sad, the only thing that you want is to be alone. But in my case, the only company that I accept, is from my horse. People maybe don't understand my feelings for it, but I am sure that when they know what it is (if they can feel the same as me someday) they'll feel jealousy, because for me, that's an incredible thing, she (my horse) can transform a sad and horrible moment for a nice moment, and I feel better. There's a lot of people who thinks that I am crazy, but I don't think so... I don't mind what they can say!

Stress

This week and the next one are going to be terrible for me. There comes all the exams, so that it means: study, study and study... I don't think I'm going to be an excellent from every subject, but i'll try to get the best mark as I can, because I'm going to study a few days before (that's one of my nw year resolutions). I don't have many time on the afternoons, beacause I'm always busy doing things, but I always can study a bit, enough to have a good mark. There are some subjects that are more difficult for me than many others but I have to strive myself with it.

Sercam shows

Sercam Shows is a company that tames all the horses they have in freedom, it seems that the horse do everything that the man says, but behind this image, there's a hard work. I'll show you a video from this company, you'll be impressed.



This video has been recorded in Girona, in a horse fair that's in October.
I have seen 3 shows about this, and I have spoken to the man who tames the horses. He knew a lot about this topic.
Do you know the Spanish program called Tú si que vales? So they have participed there and they are finalists. The jury was impressed, what the man had just done, seemed impossible to do.
Here you can watch a video from the program:



I really loved the show, and I hope that he'll win the program!

Valentine's Day

http://lightbox.time.com/2012/02/14/valentines-day-special-love-ever-after/?iid=lb-gal-viewagn#1

That's a text who tells us about a project realized by Lauren Fleishman. This project is about taking photos to old couples, who married 50 years ago. She wants to know if they hide any secret, but she finally says that the most of them are a different persons for being together, but they don't hide anything, they love theirselves so they don't have secrets.
Fleishman interviewed some old people to know how did they meet, or what happened when they got married or before.
The photografies that she took were at the moment they were kissing, hugging,... a romantic moment.
Here are some examples:

Self-evaluation of my oral presentation

Do you use any resources: powerpoint, video, images, sound, real material...? A PDF, images, real material (pictures)

Are there just key words to explain your message? Only the key words

Are you looking at your audience most of the time? Yes

Are you reading occasionally from your notes? I only read when It changed the order of the slides and I had to look the paper for situate me.

Do you organize your ideas in order of importance (chronological order), with different parts?

Yes, I think that I organized the ideas in order.

Do you introduce new information to your audience? Yes, when I just started my presentation I explained, without any detail, what I would explain.

Is your information detailed and comprehensible? I used different slides for undertand it better and I used comprehensible words.

Do you give/show examples? I show some pictures about her, about all her life (more or less)

Do you know how to pronounce all your words? Maybe there were some words that I didn’t pronounced them good, but there weren’t many difficult words.

Dou you speak in a fluid continuum or with breaks and interruptions? I only had one interruption, and it was when I saw that the slides were in a wrong order.

You are your teacher! :-) FINAL MARK: 9

IT WILL RAIN - BRUNO MARS

This song is about love, romantic love. He's afraid that the girl, someday, could leave him and break his heart. He also says that she would remember all the sacrifices he's doing for her, and that anything couldn't save him from his sad feeling.

He compares the clouds and the dark sky with his feelings, what he would feel when she'll walk away: "Cause there'll be no sunlight if I lose you, baby. There'll be no clear skies, if I lose you, baby. Just let the clouds, my eyes will do the same if you walk away... Everyday it will rain."

There's a problem, and it is that he's never going to be her mother's favourite, but that he'll try to get her, and his father too, because what he really wants is the girl's love.
And it's always the same, he continues saying that if he loses her, he won't be okay.

NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS

In this year, my new resolutions are a bit difficult to fulfil, like the most of resolutions. I think I should study a few days before the exams, because two days before it, I’m stressed. I’ll be a little more organized, keep everything in their place, tidy my bedroom (my mother everyday gets angry because it’s awful). I’m going to try to spend more time with my school fiends, because I spend it more with my horse and a friend who is like me, than with my school friends. I want to lose weight, I think that if I lose it, I’m going to see myself better, more comfortable. Finally, I’m going to dedicate more time to my family, I’ll be more affectionate.
And without any doubt, I’ll be happy whatever happens (except for disastrous things).
