FINAL RESOLUTION

Hello everyone! This will be my final resolution of the blog, my final post in this blog!

I'm very happy because it means that we have almost finished the course and now all of us will begin a new stage in our life.

First of all I will comparate the first post I've made in first of batxillerat with my current posts, the post that I choose is this one: http://juliaengilsh.blogspot.com.es/2012/11/rithmic-gymnasts.html.
I think that in this post I've expressed my feelings about my sport, now I don't do it anymore because I've had a lot of hours of training and I could not have enough hours to study...

Well I think that this post is pretty well written but I've notice an increment in my level because I remember that last year I take much time to do a post and I need help, but now I can write a good writing alone and much faster. My posts are longer and I write with more maturity, I choose too topics more interestings for adults because I think that I've matured a lot this year.

Now I will choose the post that I like most in my blog is: http://juliaengilsh.blogspot.com.es/2014/03/protest-in-kiev.html

I choose this new because I think that my news in the second term were very elaborated because I wanted to make them very well and I have invested a lot of time making them.

In this new I can see much more maturity, new words that I've introduced in my vocabulary and in general a more better writing and elaboration. Phrases are good linked and in general I'm proud of those increases.

My opinion about the blog method:

In one hand I think that this method is very good for students to catch a good habit writing english posts frequently. Pesonally I could see an increment in my posts and in my mature writing.

I think it motivates sutdents to see how you can reach a better vocabulary and writing in your own.

The news were very helpful because you must read, understand the text, summarize it and then give your opinion, it is a lot of time but at the end you will se that it is good time spend.

In the other hand I think that we spend a lot of time doing blog at home and most of students do it in the last week, I sometimes have done it too but I have tried to avoid it because if you do it with time you learn a lot more.

I think too that english classes must not me so much centered in wiritting we must learn to talk and express our selves with english because it is what we will use in the outside world, more classes must be inverted in speaking.


Tips for the next bloggers!

If you want to create a good blog and having a good mark in my opinion you must to be motivated to do it, don't leave it for the last week and try to bring it up bacause you will learn a lot!

Acomodate the blog with your stile, you will feel your self more confortable and you will be more satisfied!

I hope the tips will be usefull, but really this are obvious things that help a lot!

And this was my last post in the blog, I'm so excited to begin a new stage in my life and I'm proud of my work in this blog!

See you soon!

Skinny love




Come on skinny love just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
My my my - my my my - my my my my - my my ...
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My my my - my my my - my my my my - my my ...
Right in the moment this order's tall

I told you to be patient I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced I told you to be kind
In the morning I'll be with you
But it will be a different kind
I'll be holding all the tickets
And you'll be owning all the fines

Come on skinny love what happened here
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
My my my - my my my - my my my - my my ...
Sullen load is full so slow on the split

I told you to be patient I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced I told you to be kind
Now all your love is wasted then who the hell was I?
Cause now I'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines

Who will love you? who will fight?
And who will fall, far behind?

Come on skinny love ...
My my my - my my my - my my my - my my ... (x2)


Spanish translation:

Vamos, amor consumido, solo resiste el año.
 Derrama un poco de sal, nunca estuvimos aquí.
Mi, mi, mi- mi mi mi- mi, mi
mi, mi, mi, mi...
Mirando en el fregadero de la sangre y la chapa aplastada.

Le dije a mi amor que acabara con todo.
Que cortara todas las cuerdas y me dejara caer.
Mi, mi, mi, -mi, mi, mi- mi, mi
mi, mi, mi, mi...
Justo en el momento de este decreto de altura.

Te dije que fueses paciente, te dije que estubieses bien.
Te dije que fueras equilibrado, te dije que fueses amable.
Estaré contigo al amanecer.
Pero será diferente.
Yo estaré sosteniendo todos los tickets. Y tú tendrás todas las multas.

Ven, amor consumido,
¿qué pasó aquí?
Mama en la esperanza en este sostén.
Mi, mi, mi- mi, mi, mi- mi, mi
mi, mi, mi...
El resentimiento está lleno de carga y es tan lenta la ruptura.

Te dije que fueses paciente, te dije que estubieras bien.
Te dije que fueras equilibrado, te dije que fueses amable.
Ahora todo tu amor se ha malgastado, ¿y quién demonios era yo por aquél entonces?
Porque ahora estoy rasgando todos los pantalones,
y, al final, todo tu destino.

¿Quién te amará? ¿Quién luchará?
¿Y quién caerá, lejos, atrás?

Ven aquí, amor consumido...
mi, mi, mi- mi, mi, mi- mi, mi
mi, mi, mi... (x2)

Eternal love?

Falling in love is part of our life, it can happen everywhere and really, with everyone.
You can be similar, extremely different... The feelings are uncontrolled.
You can fall inlove with someone for a short time, for a longest time or for ever.

What I really like is that the marriages nowadays are for real love, not for money or family interests, there can be exceptions but majority people marry for love.

In my view I want to be the whole life with the man that I marry I didn't want to have to separate us, I want to be very in love all life of the same person and of corse being loved.



Human rights

1-Human rights are the rights that you have simply because you're human
2-They were created at 1948
3- There are 30 human rights
4-
Human Right # 2
Don't Discriminate  http://www.youthforhumanrights.org/what-are-human-rights/videos/do-not-discriminate.html

I think that this right is very important, we mustn't discriminate someone only for his physical, we must apreciate him like the others because it will be a wonderful person like the others.

I think that this right is not so aware in the mind of the people who don't think very far, they only give the guilt to emigrans that they didn't have work and things like that.
They must to open they're eyes, don't do that anyone feels bad of your discriminatory words because they're rights and putting your self above the other is not moral, you're violating a right.

Get ready for selectivitat- How to write a description of a place

Selectivitat is coming and we must get ready, to begin with this I have decided to do a post about this so I will explain a little bit how to make a description of a place.

First of all we must to have clear how must this text be structured, there must be three diferent paragraphs.
The 1st is called opening and it must include the name of the place, it's location, special or interesting details...
The 2nd is named body and it is where we must to explain the description with more detail, examples of things that we see or do...
And the 3rd and last paragraph is called closing there we must conclude with one sentence the opinion and if we recommend this place.

Now I will give you some examples tips about grammar and vocabulary to make a good writing!

Grammar, we can use different expresions like:
It's the capital of...
It's located in...
It offers...
It's popular with...

Some useful vocabulary could be:
Famous, vibrant, lively, peaceful, huge, historical, modern, fun,...

I hope that this post can be useful!



Advantages and disadvantages of prenup agreement


A prenup agreement is a modern contract made by copules to make their life easier, they agree on different cohabitation, economic or several issues and if they don't respect the rules they can be punished with economic fines.

Apparently this prenup agreement has a lot of advantages, it makes sure that anyone will do things ans there will be rules to make the other happy.

But it might not be such a good thing because when people get married they must do their work and help home for the sake of love and they must be disciplined.
With this agreement people don't have any discipline and they are obligating the couple to do things not because of love, they do it for obligation and to avoid paying fines.

In conclusion I think that if people get married they must love each other and help voluntarily at home, not beeing scared to pay a fine.

Sweet eighteen! ♥



Last week was my birthday, it was a fantastic weekend! There were four days holiday and I didn't stop any of those days, I was so excited and really tired because I had no time to sleep!!


The first holiday day my boyfriend Thomas made me a present to go to a big party in Tarragona it was a midnight party and it was fantastic we enjoyed it a lot, the next day we woke up early and we went to Porta Aventura it was so fun we were there for the whole day and at night we where K.O. it was the night of my birthday so we go out in Salou for dinner and drink something.

The next day I was totaly tired and I slept a few hours.

Then my friends at night made me a big surprise with a very cool party!! There were lots of my betters friends and it realy was perfect I am very thankful to all this people that made my 18th birthday so special including my family!

I will leave here some photos of this long and perfect weekend!

A look at human rights





On 14th of April 276 girls from a secondary school in Nigeria were abducted by Boko Haram, a militant Islamist group.
Since then, many people demanded the nigerian government to react and rescue the abducted girls, but the government did nothing so far.
Now they arrested two women who leaded protests and criticized the government instead of chasing the militant Islamist group.
As they now have attention from the international media the government seems to start moving.


I am very concerned that in countries like Nigeria and most of the other African countries people, and especially women have absolutely no rights.
We are all so used to live in a democratic system that I cannot believe what is happening in other countries. It is very good that there are associations like “Human rights Watch” and others who publish it and make it known to the world. So hopefully things start to change.



Champions League





8/5/2014: This year the UEFA Champions League final will be in Lisboa, Portugal on May 24th between the two football clubs of Madrid Real Madrid and Athletic of Madrid. There will be football festivities in Portugal’s capital to attract many visitors, such as a UEFA Champions Museum and a Gallery.

I am sad that Barcelona lost their match and is not playing the final this year, but now I keep my fingers crossed for Athletic of Madrid because it would be a big surprise if they win.


Train-surfing







A reporter from CNN visited a village in South Africa nearby Johannesburg, because many young men between 15 and 25 coming from poor families have a very dangerous hobby there:
 they do train-surfing!
They climb on top of the train wagons and stay there as if they were surfing while the train runs. Many of them get injured or die but they have nothing to do ,no family, no jobs and nothing to do. They say that their friends respect them more when they do this and so they like the risk.

I think this is completely mad but they seem to have nothing else and no future and so they take the risk.
