The consequences of FAME!

Fame is a thing that all the world would like to have; the money, the clothes, the big houses ,the expensives cars ... but fame has a price like privacy, no freedom, you must always have a perfect image and behaviour.

I think that if you want fame, you must be a very responsable person, with a strong character, etc. to be able to withstand the pressures and temptations. Many young people do not have the necessary characteristics. Look at the examples of : Hannah Montana, Demi Lovato, Paris Hilton, Drew Barrymore, Wayne Roony ( English football player) all became famous young and the consequences have been disasterous.

They have problems with drugs, alcohol, prostitute, attitude and more problems that we don't know.

My favourite sport

In general , I like sport, all team sports like football, tennis, volleyball... but my favourite sport is football ; I like it very much. I played football from five years old, in the team of my village. Last year this team was broke up because all my friends left, the trainer go to other team... and I dicided to play five a side football. At the beggining I thought it was very boring but after when I started to play I saw that this sport was fun and more dynamic than normall football.

I played five a side football for one year, then my team again broke up and now the team is in figueras. I would have liked to continue but to go to Figueras three times a week takes up too much time because I'm in second of Batxillerat and I have to study. At the moment studying is my priority and my future.

In conclusion I like football very much and I hope in the future I can start to play again.

Extra weeks holidays ( February best time)

This year the Government changed the school holidays. They removed one week in September and put this week at the end of February. In September it's the end of the summer holidays and when you thought that you could have had one more week of holidays, you feel that you have been deprived like you have had a week taken from you. All the first week of school, you feal bad and not prepared to start work again.

However, now it is February and soon we will have this extra weeks holidays. This is like an extra susprise and we forget about the week we "lost" in September.

Also I think that now this change is very good because on the 11th of March the second term finishes and I have a lot of work, exams, etc. and for this, this week will be useful to relieve the pressure and rest. Then I can start the third term with work finished and with myself recharged.

ESO to BATXILLERAT

I started ESO when I was younger, 12 years old. ESO is four years long and to graduate you have do these four years. After that, you can try two options: 1- go to work or 2- continue your studies doing batxillerat or spacialist studies.

I tried de second option, batxillerat studies, especially social batxillerat. This change was very big because, in a manner of speaking, ESO appears too easy in comparison to batxillerat.

Last year I started to do first of batxillerat and I addapted very well, but my main problem was English. In ESO the teachers didn't insist we work a lot, they didn't put pressure on us, because of this English wasn't important to me. To start batxillerat I saw that the leavel of all the subjects were very complex, especially, English, and since this moment I knew that I had to do something with English. I started private classes of English and all started yo get better.

This year also I am doing private classes and still have some problems with English but a lot less than before

Oral Presentation: My research project

HuMaN rIgHtS

0. Do you know about human rights? what's your score?
My score is 14/41! Before doing the quiz I thought that my score would better, but from my results I can see the bit that I do not know about human rights.

1.What are human rights?
Human rights are rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled.

2. When did human rights start?
On December 10th of 1948 the general assembly of United Nations proclaimed the declarations of human rights.

3. Why were they created?
Human rights were created to try to get all the people to respect each other. To try to prevent problems concerning the race, colour, sex, religion...

4. How many rights are there?
There are 30 articles, and each one is a definition of one right.

5.Which human right were you not familiar with?
I think there aren't any human rights that I'm not familiar with, because I think that all the rights are very important if we want a society that works well.

6. Choose one human right and discuss:
- Watch the video of human rights
-It is fully respected in your country today? justify with news, comments, studies of the sbject ( cite the links of your information sources)
-Do you know if it has been respected in the past? why or why not?
-Where in the world is this right not complied with? Check here.

7. Are Human rights relevant in the world today? why?
I think that now, even more than ever, human rights, are relevant and very important in the world today, because in fact, every day the world gets " a bit crazier". There are people that have extreme power and money. This power and money can be used for bad porposes. With human rights this power and money should be used to respect the people, for example. Preventing child labours, appropriate work/living standards, the ability to speek freely without being punished.

My FaUvOrItE dAy Of tHe ChRiStMaS hOlIdAyS

My fauvorite day of the christmas holidays is, exactlly, the last day of the year, 31 of Desember, New years Eve. It's a very special day for all the people in the world because we think about all the things that have passed in the year, they stay with family, they have a dinner, talk... At twelve o' clock they eat 12 grapes and then they go with friends to party!

Last year I went to dinner with my family at my grandmother's house, like every year. After that I went with my friends to a disco (Millenium, Girona) and we spent all night there. This night, was the best night of all the year.

This year, I don't know my plans. Perhaps I will go to Barcelona, a new place, different emotions, atmosphere... but definately I will first spend time with my family: eating, talking, remeniscing and eating grapes.

I think that this year will be better than the last year
