WORLD CUP

The World Cup is the trophy which the champion of all the countries of the world wins. The World Cup is a very special and prestigious trophy because you have the opportunity to win it only one time every four years.

You are asking, why I am talking about the World Cup, and the answer is very easy. Because in two weeks Spain will participate in it,which is very usual, but this time, "the red" is one of the favourites and it is the present champion of Europe. Because of that, this is the first time in a lot of years that we, the football fans of Spain, have a lot of illusion, and we hope to win the tournament.

To give the objectives, we have to be very prudent and humble, and later if we are a little lucky we could win the World Cup.

As you know, this event is important to the world of football, but to the country in general too, because independent of where we live, Catalonia, Madrid, etc all the people will be supporting the national team.

To try to win the cup, we have to beat well-known, powerful teams as Brasil, England, France, the Portugal of Cristiano Ronaldo, etc.

But we have a lot of good football players like Iker Casillas, Xavi, Piqué, D.Villa, Fernando Torres....





At the end the only thing I can say is: EVERYONE GO FOR "THE RED"!

Informal letter

Castelló d’Empúries
Girona
21st March 2010



Dear Kieron,

Thanks for your letter. I’m happy to hear that you’re well. You were asking me which kind of place Castelló is. I recommend, as I’ve told you before, for a perfect holidays, Castelló is an ideal town.

Castelló is the typical town where there is a relaxed atmosphere to forget the problems, and where you can go to the beach.
At night, you soon meet people, because there is an area where you can spend excellent moments, sing, dance...

The town is in a rural area, with a lot of agriculture, but there is a commercial area, too. In Castelló, as I`ve said before, you can go to the beach, or if you want, you have the opportunity to go skydiving, see historical monuments, etc.
Anyway, you can go to Barcelona too, which is a magnific place to see a lot of important things like: the Sagrada Familia, El Camp Nou, El Parc Güell.

One more thing-if you come here, you’ll need a swimsuit, and the most important thing, the illusion. Anyway, let me know what you’re going to do.

Keep in touch.


Good-bye,

Víctor XX

“LOS HOMBRES DE PACO” (LHDP)

Los Hombres de Paco is a TV series of Antena 3, which has been successful for six years. It’s reproduced one time a week for aproximately 8 months a year at ten o’clock pm.
The argument consist of a group of policemen who have to preserve the peace in San Antonio, a small town in Madrid. Usually the serie talks about mini-episodes that finish in a big case.
Throughout the story a lot of famous actors like Mario Casas, Michelle Jenner, Hugo Silva, Paco Tous, etc have appeared always with the collaboration of excellent second actors like David Almeda, Javi Torres, etc who have helped to build an incredíble serie.

Now it is coming to an end, next Wednesday will be the last episode of the series where we will discover Paco Miranda’s final, the principal actor. Nowadays LHDP is about the demon but it is a particular caracteristic of this years, because the others seasons were about comedia.
The change that I have just mentioned produces a lot of conflicts between the spectators of the serie, who critize the unusual change, who say that some people can’t watch the series anymore because they are frightened - a thing that I can understand, because there are a lot of connections between God and demons.

In conclusión, I consider Los Hombres de Paco as a fantastic series, and I recommend it to you if you want to spend a good time.

How to prepare an exam:

An exam is a test of knowledge which puts to the tests what you have learnt about a certain topic.
I am talking about this because we are at the end of the course, and soon the period of exams is starting.
Because of that I’m going to explain how I prepare my exams:

First of all, some days before the exam I read the material again that I have done in class to know what I will have to study.
Later, if I have enough time I try to do a summary or scheme to emphasize the most important things.
Once I have finished that I start to study until I memorize the material.

But if I don’t have enough time, I try to memorize only the most important things because if I can’t learn all of the content, at least it’s good to know the basic things.

And if the exams are of numbers I try to prepare the test doing excersises that I have done in class because I already have the corrections.

Fashion victims...

Fashion victims are people who always follow the latest tendencies and fashion.
As soon as fashion changes they have to spend a lot of money on clothes, hairstyles, accessories etc.
They copy the famous and glamorous people from TV and magazines and they try to do or look the same as them.
In my opinión it is not a negative concept but until a certain limit. For example I believe it is good that they want to “improve” their image but I think it is very sad if the people change their personality or spend a lot of money for this purpose because they could lose their own identity.

Personally I think that I am not a fashion victim because I am not all day thinking about these kind of things, buying clothes, etc.
Looking at my style of clothes and hair I consider myself pretty normal and not like one of the dressmen of the magazines.
Perhaps the people who do these things are the people who are not happy with themselves, and because of that they want to be like someone famous.

Sufre Mamon!

Sufre Mamon is a song of David Summers, the singer of Hombres G. The autor of the song has to succed a lot of years ago, when I was not born, in the 70's. In those days he composed a special song, Sufre Mamon, which caused a revolution for a lot of young people because he was one of the singers who has start singed rock spanish. The succesfull of the song cause that the productors have done a film.

As you can imagine, the topic of the song and film, talks about a couple who breack off his relationship, when the girl go out with another boy, then David Summers the main caracter try to regain his girl, and decides to compose a song.
The songs critizies the new "boyfriend of his love" and use words like powder's pica pica as in the fils put in boy's jacket when he is singer.

In conclusion the film is one of my favourites because when I listen the song I get goosebumps and I feel a special sensation. Moreover, it is the first sing that I listen In my first party, and aslo because of that has converted in my prefer.
