My diary

Tuesday, 33rd December
A lucky day
This morning I woke up at twelve o'clock because today it's the first of my holiday day. I felt like it had to be a wonderful day. I had breakfast and I went for a walk. Suddenly, I saw an important man running very fast. He seemed to be in a hurry. I felt curious and I followed him. I got closer and I saw he was overjoyed, very enthusiastic. Then it happened. His walled fell down from his pocket but he didn't realize about it. I picked it up and I ran after him to give it to him. He started crying and told me he had an important paper in it. He was so extremely pleased that he gave me 1000 euros. I was very astonished but the wan wasn't distraught and didn't seem to suffer so I accepted them.
I think this has been one of the most important days of my life.

My favourite restaurant

My favourite restaurant is a modern restaurant called "Relaxtaurant". It's situated in Berga and it's the coolest place I've ever been.

The building left me speechless the first time I saw it because the walls are made with an special material with fish in them.
But what really calls my attention is that when you are eating, some girls make a massage with water and oil on your feet.

Not only you can eat here, but also you can drink something at the bar or listen to music with an special machine they have. The prices are very small and there is a very wide of meal's choice.

From my point of view it's an excellent restaurant to go.

I strongly recommend visiting and trying the marvellous food or doing other things, but you must visit the "Relaxtaurant".
Enjoy your meal!

Are the blind dates good or not?

Nowadays many people are connected on social nets like Meetic where you can find your perfect love. But, are all advantages?

On the one hand, in these social nets you have blind dates with other people. You can choose the person what you like and it's very quick to hace a date with someone.

On the other hand, blind dates aren't always effective. People can lie to you and maybe they can steal you. The other disadvantage is that many social nets aren't free.

In conclusion blind dates are many times effective, because there are lots of people waiting for a date, and you can express your feelings while you're talking on the computer.

Thirty graffiti writers arrested

Yesterday the police arrested thirty graffiti writers in Barcelona. They were painting a huge illegal graffiti on the back side of the "Armani"'s factory. The thirty people group has been recognised as a famous graffiti group -a crew- of Barcelona. When the police got them, they apologized that they were creating art. The police found them while they were returning of doing a mission in Badalona. They saw graffiti writers painting and then they immediately called reinforcement. The crew didn't try to run away. In two days a judge will decide how to punish that group that has been arrested other times.

POEM

Garages painted by gangs,
Rated and checked by experts,
Art, this is real art.
Fresh, funny colours and shapes
Form the city the best
Incredible paradise.
Trains, towns, buses grow my
Imagination to create this world.

ENEMY AT THE GATES

I have always loved sniper films, so when I saw it for the first time this awesone film really impacted me.

The film is about a soldier of the Sovietic Union who becomes the best sniper of the army. He meets a woman and they fall in love. While the sniper becomes a famous person of the country, a hero, the enemy army has sent their best sniper to kill the Sovietic Union sniper. They start a battle between each sniper but any of them kills the other one. Finally, the Sovietic Union's sniper kills the Germany's sniper, but his best friend dies. I think it's one of the best films I have ever seen.

I would recommend this film to almost everybody, especially if you like Second World War films.

Christmas

Last Christmas I was in my grandmother's village spending my holidays there. Those days were very cold, and it was snowing every day. In the evening, my friends and I played with the snow. It was very funny. One night, we were riding our bikes on the ice when one of us fell. He broke a leg. Inmediately, we phoned the ambulances and they came. We won't play with the ice anymore.

The African bush elephant

The African bush elephant is one of the 10th most endangered animals in the world. That's because there are many mammals, like lions or crocodiles, that attack the small elephants. Humans are the elephant's major predator. They hunt them.

There are two different species of this animal. It's herbivourious, it eats plants. It eats a lot, because it's very big, it normally reaches between six or seven metres long, and weighs between 6000 to 9000 kg. This intelligent animal is the base of many human experiments about animal behaviour.

These elephants are endangered basically because people hunt them for their meat, skin, bones and tusks. Elephant trophy hunting increased in the 19th and 20th centuries. People hunted millions of elephants. It continues today. Scientists estimated that, if no protective measures were taken, the wild elephant would be extinct by 1995.

How can we protect this animal? It's very easy. These elephants are very important. What we need to do to protect them is stop hunting at all, and then there would be more elephants. It's easy to do. Why don't we do it? Let's start it!

Reflection 2009-2010

Hello, I'm Joan Sáez. I will talk about the most interesting activities of my blog I have done. It's the oral presentation. Not like as Christmas traditions or the recipe, I have found the oral presentation funny because it's very difficult to talk about something in front of a class. My partner was Sergi Torrabadella. We met two days before the oral presentation and we did all the work, but we couldn't learn all we had to talk about. So the day of the oral presentation we were so nervous. We tried to look at our audience and to use markers.
Finally, we found we did it quite well. If I was the teacher, I would put an eight or nine, because the Power-Point was well-designed and we pronounced quite well and we used rich vocabulary. In this year I have improved my vocabulary and listening. I found some activities boring, like "Learning about others experiences in the library" or Christmas activities.
In conclusion, I think my English has improved this year.

My childhood memories

I had been living in a farm, a big farm, with lots of fields and some hectares of wood until my nearly eight birthday. I remember me, alone, with no brothers, nobody who played with, and I had to hear my parents arguing. One day, my mum told me crying that my parents wouldn't live together anymore. I was too small to understand that fact. So my life completely changed. Then, my mum and me went to live in Avià, but three years later we bought a house in Berga. My mum found a boyfriend, but my father had been alone lots of years. He finally found a girlfriend who has a little child. To sum up, my childhood hasn't been very interesting, the most important facts for me have been the death of my dog and the divorce of my parents.

Linkin Park-In the end

My favourite song

My favourite song is called In the end. It’s a song from the group Linkin Park. This group is from California. It was formed in 1996. It’s one of the most popular bands in all over the world. Linkin Park plays different types of music, like rap, rock or metal. In the end is not the most famous song of this group, although it has millions of visits. Lots of people know this song even though not loving Linkin Park. The song is about the personal failure. It is also based in the time, that it goes quickly and the life is short.

I love this song because I love rap and the instrumental is really good. When I listen to it, I feel motivated, I want to go out and do some things like riding my bike, not to waste my time. I usually listen to it on Saturday’s night when I’m chatting on my computer. I think it’s perfect; it hasn’t got any negative aspect in the lyrics. I wouldn’t change anything of it, but it could be longer than it is.

The videoclip is really good and it’s perfectly connected to the lyrics. In it, the group is in an strange dimension, where plants grow quickly and the world changes from a desert to a jungle.

In conclusion, In the end is a really good and motivating song, perfectly to listen to it when you go out to do sport!

PREDICTIONS

Hello, I’m Joan. I imagine me in 20 years. I’ll be tall, strong and really fast. I’ll have my hair cut and I’ll have a little beard. I won’t be fat. I’ll wear glasses.

My future home will be a small flat in Barcelona. My friends will be my neighbours. I won’t have any grandparents, only my dad and mum living far from me.

I’ll study computer science, and in 20 years, I’ll be a hacker and expert in computers. I’ll work in a small company. Although, I’ll earn a lot of money. I’ll maybe buy a car and a new house. The company won’t need my help every day, so I’ll sleep a lot.

I‘ll have a lot of free time, so I’ll practise tennis, downhill, BMX and skate every week. Of course, I won’t smoke.

CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS

Scary story

It was a dark, and stormy night when I arrived at home. There was nobody there. I was alone. My parents were at one of their friend's house. I went to my bedroom and I started playing on PS3. One hour later, I was hungry. It was twelve o'clock. I ate something and then I went to watch TV. I was doing zapping when I found a scary film. It was called "Killers". It was really scary and I was afraid. In that film, a monster knocked the door of a house. A man opened the door and the monster killed him. Suddenly, somebody or something knocked at my house's door. I screamed. Five minutes later, I opened the door with a stick in one hand. It was my mum.
