NEW YEAR'S EVE.

There were dresses on the bed. High hells on the floor. Make up in the bathroom. And also four friends laughing in the hause. We weren’t alredy dressed, but only in a few minutes we would be...

It take us as an hour to be perfect and ready to go out. We were very happy because we were going to have the most fantastic night of our lives...

The problem began when we went out to the street. We were very surprised, the street was complete empty. “What can we do know?” We asked our selves. We started calling some taxi’s telephone numbers. But all the taxis in the city were busy. This was a stupid situation, there were not taxi, our feet were hurting already, and we had a great plan of New Year eve, but with no taxi, we couldn’t go. But suddenly our luck came back. A green light was coming to us.
THERE WAS A TAXI. A WHITE, GREAT, EMPTY TAXI. We started to laugh, to be happy again. We got inside. And our eyes stopped on the taxi’s clock. Only were 5 minutes left to be twelve o’clock. And we hadn’t the twelve grapes yet! “Oh, my got” we said. Can you imagine it? We had been a long time calling some taxi, waiting for some taxi, hopping to see some taxi…. And when we got it, we were going to arrived late. But we were happy. And this was the only thing important in the night.

We started the year still in the taxi, with a simile on our faces and giving to our friends sweet and strong hugs.

We could hear the music outside the Alameda’s ground. A long, red carpet was waiting to us. We gave the entrees to the police man and then we got inside.

I felt the music inside my ears. My feet started to move without control. In my face was the biggest smile. My eyes were looking at the people, dancing, moving enjoying. The music was loud. The place was dark. The people were dressed very elegant, like us. I thought that they were waiting to this night, like me and my friends; Sara, Begoña and Marta.

We met people during the night, we danced and enjoyed at all. I have to say that we had one of the most fantastic nights of our nights.

AMERICAN ELECTIONS.

Nowadays, a big part of the people, are taking care of the american elections, because they're very important, simply because America is the most important politic and powerful country of the world. The decisions are taken at the "white house" and the dicisions can have decisive effects all over the world. The americans make these elections each four years, for make better the thigs that they desagree.

American elections finished not so far, may be, these elections have been the most seen elections for much. Because there have been a very intersesting discuss:

-First of going to the main elections, in America are little one, that are inside the same political match. I mean, for going to be the president the people have to choose the politic they like more. The first "little elections" were between the one that would be the "first women president" or the one that would be the "first black president" in america's history.

In those elections competed: Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton. It was very interseting because they were even. But at the end, Barack Obama got the position and started another election, longer, harder, and more difficult than the other. He competed agaist the old president; John mcCain. I can't imagine all the effort that Obama has given at these elections, but they have been a good way, because, at this moment, Obama is the President of the United States of America.

LAST WEEKEND!

Last weekend I went to Tarragona to make a little trip with some friends. We were: Sara, Marieta, Laura, Ana, Alicia and me. Friday we got into the car to make the long travel, we spent the time listening to music, talking and laughing. We arrived to the hotel “California garden” at the dinner time, so we left the suitcases in our rooms and then we went to have dinner. The hotel was quite good and was too close of port aventura’s park. So next day we went there. Port aventura is a fantastic park it has a lot of attractions and it’s really funny. When we arrived there we got on in a lot of attractions and we made a lot of photos and more things like that. We went at halloween time, so it was more particular than normally. We also went to more cities to visit them, like penyíscola.
I’m very happy of have gone to that trip, because I have really enjoy. And I think that if I am happy and enjoying is the way that I have to choose. So I am happy of the people of the class for having a good time in Más de Noguera. But I don’t regret of haven’t been with them. I have been to a fantastic trip that I will never forget.

The natural beauty of Cullera’s beach.

I love the beach.
Lie on the sand, touching it, feeling it.
Smell the particular scent of the salt mixed with the sea water.
Feel the coolness of the sea breeze against my skin. Close my eyes and enjoy with that sensation.
The sun, big, beautiful and impressive, is radiating heat towards me, and my skin.
The sky, clean, blue, huge… Makes you feel relaxed.
You can fall asleep and have the most beautiful dreams you can ever imagine, because you can hear the waves breaking in the sand, constantly moving and moving, relaxing you at all.
You can get up, slow, very slow… And look at the sand, the sky, the water and the people feeling like you. You can start walking along the sand and see your feet prints taxed on the smooth sand… And arrive to the sea shore, put your feet into the water and feel the coolness of it. You can walk in the water and go inside it…
… Can you feel just like me?

Javea 08'

The first trip that I have done this summer has been Javea.
Last year I went to Scotland with my English academy, Irene and Irene went with me. And the previous four years I went to a Camp in Javea, they came with me too. And this year we came back, but not like students, we came back like monitors.
So, our paper in the camp was helping the teachers at all.
First day, when we arrived to Javea we started preparing the beds and the bed-rooms for the pupils, cleaning them, making beds etc. We were very nervous the next day, because the students were ready to come.
All the mornings we got up at half past eight, we had breakfast at nine o’clock, and then, when the students were at their lessons we made revisions of their bedrooms. If the bedrooms were clean, tidy and with the beds made, they had a green point, if it was the opposite, they had a black point. Then we cleaned the bathrooms, prepare the sandwiches for the break, and corrected some exams. After the break, we helped the teachers teaching the students that were slower than the rest of the group. There were two groups, the group with more level, and the other one, with a low level. Normally we made the reading and comprehension with the first group, and with the other, we teach easy things like verb to be or to have, when they have to use am/are/is, or when they have to use have/has.
When the lessons were finished, the students went to the pool and we did some contests to win green points.
When they finished having lunch, they have a siesta time of two hours, to have a rest and study for their exams.
In the afternoons and evenings we prepared activities like going to the fair, going to the stalls of the beach, going to play to the beach (games like races, the highest mountain, the biggest hold… etc)
All the years the teachers give the students green and red points to win the camp, and if they win, they have a price.
Green points - Speaking English, wining games.
Red points - speaking in Spanish have a bad attitude.
This year we have had the power of giving points, and it has been very exciting.
It has been a very different point of view and I have had a great time I hope I will repeat next year.

Education and technology.

The technology is nowadays the future. With a simple computer you can do what ever you want, only with studies and persistence. If new technologies are such enriching… Why not to use them?
I think that if we use them in a moderate way, we can learn and know a lot of new things. But in a moderate way. I mean, I’d like to learn more about technologies but I also want to learn history or maths…
If we use technology in the future will help us, because we will have a base of technologies and it’s a great way to start.

Last week we went to our week of the end of the course.

When we arribe to the school, fastly we take our bags and more to got on the bus. We stated there a long time watching films, eating chocolate... until we stopped in Zaragoza to visit "el monasterio de piedra"that was spectacular.

He spent two days sleeping in a logde that were a lot of strangers of France and England that were doing "el camino de santiago", we did a part of it one of the days we were at that lodge. Then we went to Pamplona, we visited the centre and we have free time to do whatever we want. It was very good, because we were to the shops and more.. Wednesday we gather our bags and we put it on the bus, then we went to Jaca and we visited the centre, it was good, but it was raining and we have to leave very soon. In Jaca we saw a shop tha unfortunatly was closed, but Sara had been looking for a shoes that there aren't in Valencia, the we go to Jaca and it were, but the shop was close, oh wath bad luck! When we arrived to the other lodge we found a place that was with games like "futbolín", "billar" and more, we all have a lot of fun ther because we descovered the form to play with out pay. Hahahaha!. Thrusday we do something that we haven't never done before. RAFTING, we went with the boat along the river and we have a lot of fun, for me one of the best things of the trip, but the best of all, of course, was CALDEA! we went to caldea to relax, and we got it!. For two hours, we forgot the school, the exams and the problems and we relax all that we can. A really good experience. It was all really clean and wonderful. I WANT TO RETURN!!

This is England.

We saw the film "this is England" a few months ago. Is a film about the skin heads culture. It tells you the story of a little boy called Shaun that hasn't got any friend. So when he meet a group of people that don't make fun of him he want to be like them, unfortunatly, this group of people are a gang of skinheads. The film tell us the problems that has Shaun when appears Combo, a radical skinhead that deceives to shaun and convices him to be like he.

Personal opinion: Personally, i didn't like this film, is very radical and sad for me, but it isn't bad to know more thigs about skinheads culture... a new experience.

Coverall we have been all the time and for me this is the best of Easter and the best of all, have a great time with the people that you love.

FALLAS.

Fallas are celebrations that are celebrated since the 14th to the 19th of March. The Fallas are the most important celebrations at Valencia. It gives to the city tourism and popularity.

This year I’ve been at the city only 2 days but I’ve enjoyed the Fallas a lot.
First I went to have dinner at the centre with a friend and then we went to visit some of these great monuments. Next day my friend and I went to the centre in order to be with friends, and Sara came with us. The following day I return to my village, so I didn’t see ‘la cremà’. But for the people that have been never gone to the Fallas, I recommend to go, because are fantastic celebrations and it’s a good idea to see them.

The best moments at chistmas.

For me, the best moments at christmas have been many, but, for me, can be the best this two.

- New year's eve : Sara went to Chelva (my town.) and she stayed there three days, New year's eve was one of those days.

At night, we went to a friend's house to have dinner and a small party. There were music, food.. And also it was a great time.

Then to eat the grapes we went to the main square of the town.. It has been a great moment !!

-The other, has been The magic kings day. With all the presents, (L) ooh yeah. :)

haha.. and how I have been a good girl I have had lots of presents !

The sing star (with all the songs in english.), clothes, more clothes, a pyjama, other converse..

normally, at chistmas is always happiness and so, but, this year has been a bit defficult for me bacause I have broken my feet ! :S

but in two weeks it will be like always, so, I have to wait.

How is the world.

Well, I'm going to speak about my personal opinion about how is the world on our times. I think that the world is so bad and maybe, it could goes better.

We can't goes back into the past but we can help, almost, we can try to help.

There are too many things that are getting worse our planet like the green house effect, the pollution, the temperarture, etc..

We must to stop this, we must to help if we want to live in a great ambient, in a clean planet.

One thing that we could do is, recycle, if we recycle, there will be less pollution in the world..

Some people think that if they recycle they won't help anything, so, they don't recycle, (putting your own rubbish in recycling bins.) but, if yo try to, you will help, only a little bit, but you will.

Another thing that you can do is to save water, having showers instead of baths, closing the faucet when you are cleaning your teeth, when you're cleanings the plants, etc..

If all of us do a little, we will do a lot to our plant, please, try to.

Escuela2!

Hello!
This is the door of Escuela 2, Escuela 2 is our School. I’ve been there since I was little and I love this school.
This is the dinning-room, where we have had lunch during all our life, if you go out this door you can see the garden. In this garden I have lived a lot of fantastic moments, with three, four, five, third-teen years old.
This is primary; first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth of primary. We have studied there a lot of years and we did very important things like our show, the frogs, J the best show in primary that anyone have seen. The teachers of primary were so nice.
Now, this door connects the eso and primary… and now we study third of eso, and the teachers are so nice too. So..
This school is the best of all the schools. I know, because I hear people speaking about their schools and isn’t the same.
I won’t change this school, and the people in it for anything!
