My world: Neighbors

My world: Describing a picture

In this photo you can see two young animals: a cat and a dog. In the background there are some trees. In the foreground there are the two animals. They seem to be in a large park. They are playing with each other. The kitten is on the left and has short grey hair, and on its chest has short white hair. The kitten seems smaller and braver than the puppy. The puppy is on the right and has clear brown hair. It seems more scared than the kitten. It is and unusual scene because normally cats and dogs are not friends. Maybe they are playing because they are still young. But I don't know if when they are older they are going to still be friends. Maybe the photographer uses this moving image to express that we always have to be friends and be kind to other people. As I can see, the weather was perfect because it looks like a shinny day. I would like to be there playing with these young, funny and cute animals. I've chosen this photo because I love animals.

My world: La Banda Municipal De Figueres

This past summer, I was at home and the music school's director called me and asked if I wanted to play with a group of musics. At first I was a little bit indecisive because I didn't know anyone there. But then i decided to try and go there. The first prictise i was nervous and excited. My partners were very good and they played instruments that I had never seen. We practised twice a month to play with the catalan group Brams. We played in the festival of ACUSTICA, the 31st of September. then, during the year we acted in some events to make known this Band. This past 23rd of May, we made the Band official and now we are founding members of the Banda Municipal de Figueres. The 4th of July we are going to play again with Brams in Lloret de Mar. I think that we impressed them with our music!!

My world: BIOKO de Marc Pastor

BIOKO is an island with many names. is is populated by the natives and the colonizers. There is destinated Moisès Corvo. Every member of the Navy that lives there is because they have committed a crime. It is the perfect island to ensure death. Moisès has a knack to getting into trouble. During he was in the island, he caused many troubles to other people who lived there, to the point that he began to fear for his life. Even Corvo's mates begin to hate him. The jungle adventure with natives crisscross with mysterious murders. There are some flashes of a British expedition that seem completely unrelated to the main story. Furthermore, there is a Cuban exiled on the island, that  his wife was kidnapped, and Corvo with the help of the brother of the missing girl, they are going to search her. After a civil war on the island, which claimed many lives, Corvo and his partners can solve the strange murders and finally flashes make sense. The murders were commited by a company that in principal made vanilla and they were who kidnapped the girl. Thanks to a lake that the soldiers had discovered, they could travel through the time and resolve the murders.

My world: Politics

I think that democracy is better than communism. But in fact communism has some advantages. For example, in a communist country there is equality among people. The population is employed and there is not an economic crisis. But on the other hand, the communism controls everything to achieve the equality and people must work for the benefit of the country. In a democratic country you are free, you can vote and "the people have the power". So I agree with democracy, but I think communism well run could be much better than democracy and other political regime.

'Biggest dinosaur ever' discovered

By James MorganScience reporter, BBC News
Fossilised bones of a dinosaur believed to be the largest creature ever to walk the Earth have been unearthed in Argentina, palaeontologists say. Based on its huge thigh bones, it was 40m long and 20m tall. Weighing in at 77 tonnes, seven tonnes heavier than the previous record holder, Argentinosaurus. Scientists believe it is a new species of titanosaur - an enormous herbivore. They unearthed the partial skeletons of seven individuals - about 150 bones in total - all in "remarkable condition". This new dinosaur is the largest animal known that walked on Earth. This giant herbivore lived in the forests of Patagonia between 95 and 100 million years ago, based on the age of the rocks in which its bones were found. One problem with assessing the weight is that no complete skeleton is known, which means the animal's proportions and overall shape are conjectural. So it's interesting to hear another really huge sauropod has been discovered, but ideally we'd need much more material of these supersized animals to determine just how big they really got.

This picture shows a perfect and nice sunset. In the background there are some mountains and the sun is hidding behind them. The sky is awsome. It is yellow, and a lot of orange ranges. In the foreground there seems to be a large forest  with a lot of trees, of many sizes, divided by a very extensed river. There is a big and desert esplanade. This image makes me feel peace, relax and quiet. Probably this picture is made from a campsite, from where you can see this awesome scene. Maybe it was dinner time and the photographer chose this place to eat and enjoy the scenery. It seems that it was a hot day. The picture inspires the viewer to think about that we have to protect nature to enjoy it. What the photographer probably wants to express is that we have to take care of nature to preserve this spectacular scenery. I would like to be there because it would serve to stop worrying about my routine.

Berlin Trip

Diary explanation 

TUESDAY 22nd

On Tuesday morning we came to the Hight School to revise our DNIs or Passports. At 8:45 we take the bus to the airport and  there we take the plane to Berlin. At 17:30 we arrived. Then we take a VIP bus that take us to the St. Christopher's hostel. It was quite comfortable and quite big.I think our bedroom was worse than the others. When we set up then we went to the Brandenburger Tor that it was very big. we walked among all the avenue and saw lots of different shops and monuments. At night we went to the typical restaurant in Berlin: Maredo. We ate a poor menu: salad, a boiled potato with very small piece of steak and turkey. The desert was a lemon ice cream. Then we went for a walk and saw the Atlético de Madrid and Chelsea's match in a bar. Finally we returned to the hostel and went to sleep.

WEDNESDAY 23rd
This day was the cultural one. We had breakfast early and then we went to the Reichtag (the parliament). We had an audiogude that explained everything, inside the Reichtag's Dome, about the monuments and important buildings of Berlin. then we visited the Holocaust Memorial. At midday we had free time to take a walk and have lunch in the Tiergarten park. In the afternoon we went to the former communist area, visited the Museum of Berlin's Story and visited Check-point Charlie and the shopping area. Then we had dinner in Maredo's and went to the hostel and saw the Real Madrid vs Bayern Munchen's match. Unexpectedly, in the hostel there were more Madrid's fans than Bayern's fans. That night we had a little mishap with the staff.

FRIDAY 25th
This day we saw all the Museum's of Berlin. First we visited the Kaiser Wilhem church and then we chose go to the zoo, because the guide Shadia told us that the zoo was very nice and there was a panda. Unfortunatelly the panda was dead, but in general the zoo was great. After we had lunch, we went to visit all the museums. After we had dinner, we went to the hostel. We wanted to stay awake, but finally we slept.

SATURDAY 26th
This was the final day of the trip. We had free time to do the last shopping and visit other places in the area. We met at 12:30 p.m. at the hostel. And then we went to the airport, take the plane and came again here.

The personal valuation of the trip is: we walked a lot, used a lot of transport (metro and bus) and dinner each day got better.
