My Christmas

This Christmas I have done a video of one of the things that I did in Christmas holidays.
In the video I was in a small town located in Teruel called Linares de Mora. In Linares I have spent Christmas Eve and Christmas day with my mothers family.
We only are eight people in my family so we rented two small nice houses. The first house had only one room, and the second had two rooms but It also had a loft with some more beds.
It was very nice.

Christmas Card

For Christmas, all the class we have done a letter to one of our classmates. First we did a raffle to know to who we had to write the letter.
I had to write to Sara. In the letter I wrote all good things that Sara has and I told her is a very great person.

Victor was the person who wrote me the letter. I liked very much his letter because it talked about him and I, our childhood and our present. He is a very good friend and I hope to be many more years with him.

If my house was burning...

 This course we also have done a project called "If my house was burning". In this project we had to write all the things that we would take if our house was burning. Doing this project, I have practiced the second conditional because I have had to use it all the time.



I liked it a lot because I think it help us to improve our writing and understand better what we write.

Time Line

During this course I have done a School project called time line. In this project I had to write in a big paper all verb tenses that I know, writing the present in the middle of the paper and the rest in the sides. I had to take an order for all the people to understand.

This project has helped me to understand better all tenses, so now I'm able to combine verbs correctly.

The Walking Dead Book one

This summer I red The Walking Dead book one. It is an horror and survival book that was published on June 19, 2006. The writers are Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore, Charlie Adlard and Cliff Rathburn. It was written in USA. After writing the book, have made a show in the American television channel AMC.

Robert Kirkman came to fame are his successful series Invincible and The Walking Dead, published by Image Comics. His dedication to the world of the book helped make partner at Image Comics in 2008.

  


 The Walking dead is about Rick Grimes, an american police officer who lives with his wife and son. 
One day, Rick is seriously wounded during a shootout. On the verge of death, his colleague and best friend Shane takes him to the hospital. Rick remains in a coma for six months. When he wakes up, he finds himself alone in a world where the dead have risen and feed on the living. Rick will join other survivors and will not rest until he found his wife and son. 




 I love this book, it is intriguing, very entertaining and funny. Some things I like from this book are the radical turns of events in the story, the evolution of the characters during the book, the ability of the story to put the reader in the situation of each character and that the focus of the story are the living, not the dead.
I recommend it to everyone.

Denia summer 2014

 Every summer I go to Denia, because a friend of my parents has a house there. We usually stay in her home, but, this year we bought a house there, on the beach.
It will be more fun.







Denia's origins date back to the Iberian culture, it is at this time when this town that grew up at the foot of the Montgo mountain (753 meters) was created.

This village was populated by Iberians, Romans, Visigoths and Muslims. All of these civilizations greatly influenced Denia, enriching it in every way.

On the slopes of the Montgo, archaeologists have discovered settlements such as Punta de Benimaquia (IV century BC) and Pico del Aguila, (I IV century BC.)

But the foundation of the city is attributed to the Greeks, they built this small colony dubbed Hemeroskopeion.

This year in Denia, I did the same as what I do every year: I went to the beach, I relaxed, I swam, I went on excursions, I dived in seacaves, I ran every afternoon...
Also I did something new: Paddle Surf.

It is a sport in which you use a surfboard with a paddle.
This is to keep your balance above the board and row with the oar with both hands to move the board forwards, backwards, left or right.

I 

 I enjoyed this trip a lot and I hope to enjoy it every year in our new summer house.

How I Met Your Mother

This summer I saw a show which I really enjoyed. It's name is How I Met Your Mother.
It's a comedy created by Craig Thomas and Carter Bays. This show premiered on September 19th, 2005 and ended on March 31st, 2014. 
   
Its leading actors are:   

Josh Radnor (as Ted Mosby), Neil Patrick Harris (as Barney Stinson), Cobie Smulders (as Robin Scherbatsky), Jason Segel (as Marshall Eriksen) and Alyson Hannigan (as Lily Aldrin).

In New York city (in 2030) Ted Mosby tells his children the story of how he met their mother. He tells them the anecdotes and stories that he lived with his friends Marshall, Lily, Robin and Barney, and (after going through several relationships) how he met his future wife and mother of his children. 


 
                


  
I love this show because it is very funny and I laughed a lot with the characters. Also I like the role changes that happen in the show. My favourite character is Barney because he's very funny, crazy, spontaneus and a perfectionist. He always tries to flirt with every woman he can, without any commitment (a tease)







  
I put here a trailer of the show, enjoy it!

Exchange Normandie 2014

This last February my class and me have done an exchange with France (Normandie). But before you do an exchange you have to know and do some important things.

First our teacher gave us the emails from our French correspondents so we could talk with them and go with more confidence to the exchange.
They also taught us which are the aims and objectives of an exchange (learning to adapt to other rules and traditions, practice other languages​​, meet different people, etc.)
Another activity we did was make a dossier in French populating all kinds of questions about France and Normandy. This way we gave the dossiers to the French for the refills and so know more things about their country. 

After do all this activities, we went to Normandie. First we took an airplane to Paris and then we go by bus to Normandie. When we where in the bus we were very nervious for see them, but in the end everything was fine. When I got home, the family treated me very well, we chatted, we talked about the different things in our countries...

During our stay in Normandy we did sightseeing tours (we went to Mont St Michel, to see the city, the beach landing in Normandy ...), we went out to the town and we made lots of parties, we stayed in the school for see their classes, etc.
The last day we went to Paris, it's so beautiful. We visited the city, the Eiffel Tower, the
Arc de Triomphe, etc. 

I have enjoyed a lot this exchange to Normandie, I had fun a lot, I met new people, I learnt lots of different things.  
It has been one of the best trips I've ever done.

The last book I red this summer is Kilmarny Island.

The writer of this book is Julie Hart,  she was born on March 25, 1960 in Lestock, Saskatchewan, Canada as Julia A. Smadu. She was previously married to Bret Hart.




The book is about the Parkers family. They visit an eccentric aunt in ireland and they stay on a small island, in a house without electricity. One day the soon discover how different life is there. Since that moment, a lot of strange things starts to happen in the island.



I don´t like this book becouse is so boring and is not fun. Im not happy with it.

Metro 2033

This summer I read two books but in this entry I want to talk about one of them, Metro 2033.

The writer of this book is Dmitry Glukhovsky, he has borne in Moscow the 12 of June 1979. Actually he is writer and journalist.
He studied in Germany and France and he published this first novel in 2002.
He is famous in Russia for his novels "Metro 2033" and "Twilight".

This book is about when a nuclear war starts, the people who survived refuge into the Moscow metro station. Inside the station, the people create a new governament form, a new religion and a new army to protect them of the mutants living in this new world. I like very much this book, I thing is increible becouse you enter in the difficult life of the people who life inside the station. It is very hard and powerful, so it is a perfect book.

I really have enjoyed this book becouse is very interesting and along the story always is happening things, so its very funny.

Ibiza 2013

 This summer also I went to one of my favourites places in Spain, Ibiza. In this small island I visited a lot of places, beaches (like Cala Compte, Cala Tarida, Cala Bassa, Cala Llenya, etc.),small towns and hippy concerts. Also I did a lot of things like diving, banana, aquatic bike, a photography reportage, etc. In the last day of the travel we take a boat for go to Formentera. I enjoyed a lot in Formentera becouse is a very small and beautiful island, with no more people living there. Some things I like in Formentera are the green and lush vegetation and the blue and clean water in the beaches (it is very good for dive).

I like very much this travel and I would like

to go back someday.

London 2013

This summer I went to one of the most important cities in the world, London. I have been there for two weeks with my fiends Pau and Julia. Going to this country was one of the best travels that I ever do.

In London we meet a lot of cultures becouse we had to live with Russian, Italian, Chinese, Brazilians, Ukrainians, French, English, Spanish and Turkish people. Also we learnt more english, we made new friends, we knew different cultures, etc.

But the most important thing is that we had fun a lot meeting new people and the culture.

Red Hot Chili Peppers

In this entry, I want to speak about one of my favourite group of music, the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
The Red hot Chili Peppers are a very famous group of rock.  

The musical history of the Red Hot Chilli Peppers begins in The Angels, in 1982, when several friends come together to form a band and play in nightclubs. The four friends were: Michael Balzary (Flea) on bass, Hillel Slovak (guitar), Jack Irons (drums) and vocalist Anthony Keidis.
  
Her first big show was at a concert, where to get attention they undressed to act. This gave them a tremendous publicity in The Angels and earned them to sign a contract with a big label.
Slovak and Irons left the group to pursue other jobs and were replaced by Cliff Martinez and Jack Sherman, and in 1984 released their first album, 'Red Hot Chilli Peppers', which was not too successful. 

After this, Slovak returns to the group replacing Sherman and they engage to promoted through concerts, before editing there second album, 'Freaky Styley', with a new producer. This time the luck smiled they and were a very important band in the United States. 

After a while, Jack Irons returned and replaced Cliff Martinez, returning to the origins of the group. But something had changed. The problems of drug addiction in  Slovak  began to give problems at the group.
With his next album ('Uplift Mofo Party Plan') achieved many sales. After the tour of the album, Slovak died of an overdose, and it seemed the end of the band.

In 1989, the guitarist John Frusciante and the drummer Chad Smith joined the band with Flea and Keidis. They were back on track.

 Other albums from the Red Hot Chili Peppers are: One Hot Minute, I'm Whit You, By The Way,  Stadium Arcadium, Californication  and my favourite:   Mothers Milk.

My Mrs. Right

In this entry I want to speek about my Mrs. Right. For me, a perfect woman have to be nice, comprehensive and especially to have a loving , pretty and fun look. 
Also, she has to be fair and she have to like helping people.
Physically, I like se was half-height, with brown hair and interesting green eyes. Also, I would like that she be thin, but not overly. 
My perfect woman would really like music, movies, sports, etc. Also, I would like that her plays an instrument.
