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:

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.
