PARACHUTE'S EXPERIENCE.

Last year, my family gave me as a  present for my 16th birthday, a parachuting jump. It’s true that I was very excited because I've always wanted to do that but, I'm also very scared and all of questions went throught my mind; like, that I would die in the sky! My parents were also scared of it, specially my father because he didn’t like the idea. However, I wanted to do it, because I’m not a chicken!! When the special day arrived, I met my instructor. The first time you cannot do it alone, and there must be an instructor. While I was flying, I woke up. It was just a dream!!! 

HUMAN RIGHTS

1. What are human rights? 
2. When and why were they created? 
3. How many human rights are there? 
4. Which human right were you not familiar with? 

ANSWERS:
1) Human rights are rights that all humans have.
 2) They were created at 1948 after the Second World war by the United Nations to preserve all the people rights
3) There are thirty rights
4) I'm not familiar with the "culture and community" right

Watch the video of the right you chose.Make a list of new words you hear, if any. Think of an example where this human right is respected and where it is violated.

GUILT --> culpa
STEAL --> robar

I saw the article 11 of the human rights that are: "We're always innocent till provent guilty"

One example where this human right is violated is when somebody acuse to someone to do something and then that's false; you can't acuse the other person without prove because you broke them privacity.

Othere example where this human right is respected is at the police investigation because they can't arrest somebody without demonstrates.


Also I saw the article 19 of the humans rights that are: "Freedom of expression"

HOLD --> Tenir, agafar
SEEK --> buscar
REGARDLESS --> en qualsevol cas

EXAMPLE WHEN THE RIGHT IS VIOLATED: At 2012, a theatre company of Spain created a particular show that calls "La familia irreal" and that shows with a big part of humour sence all the troubles that the royal house have inside of the family. That show had a lot of troubles and a censor part before that could be made a debout.

EXAMPLE WHEN THE RIGHT IS RESPECTED: I think that this right is respected in all songs and all poems. Now, the singers can make them songs and can express everything they will. Also some TV programs have this right. Some examples were: SKA-P or POLÒNIA.

MELENDI SONGS.

Melendi is a spanish singer that starts his fame at the nineten century. At the start of his period he did some strange songs that talks of drugs, bad moments and happy flowers (they were very contradictory). 

Now, he changes him letters and starts talk about love and others themes that are very far to he. 

I love all of Melendi's music because I think that his letters explains a lot of histories that can occurred to every one of us and also I like because his personality is very eccentric and funny. 

On my research project I have the pleasure to analyze some of his songs and that I think was a good form to know something more of his music. 

That is one of his new songs:

MY NEW PASTIME

With this post I will confess my new hobby.
Actually, every day, I pass a lot of time inside of my bedroom because there I have my work zone: my personal desk, my books, my computer and all thinks that I could need when I do my daily homework.
In front of I, there are a window where I can see all the street that pass in front of my house and all the sky; the most important factor for my new pastime.
I'm addicted to do immortalize the sunset!

I think that the photos are very important in life because you can remember some special days in your live that you will them endure.
Because I love do photos, I love to do some special photos and the sunset that presents in front of me every day I considere that are special.

Here you can see one of my photos:

TED TALKS: HARRY BAKER: A love poem for lonely prime numbers

Harry Baker is the winner of the Poetry World Cup. He starts to compose when he was eighteen and now he was the prime minister (like he designates) of the poets in the world.
In that video he recites some of him poems like the 59 and 60 poem and also he explains that he thinks the poetry is a free expression without borders.

I agree with him because I think that poetry same the music are one of the method to express without borders and also one the free methods because you can camouflage you personal ideals inside a invent history or a make up poem.


slam --> colpejar

SELF EVALUATION ORAL PRESENTATION.

When I saw that video I think that I can do my presentation as well that.

I can see that I read in some parts of my presentation and also that was a little bit short.
I think that when I was jam, I could resolve my problems well like when I answer the teacher's final questions because I did my research project and I know a lot of thinks about that subject.
Also I think that the prezi support is complete and have a good structure.

The mark that I put to myself is a 6 because the presentation was short and I read at some periods.

CNN: UK twins turn heads; One is white, the other is black.

There twins were borned at 1997 in the UK them birth was like other but them are so different. 

Lucy and Maria Aylmer are twins but one of them is redhead with blue eyes and the other have dark skin and eyes. That's happen because them father is white and them mother is jamaican. 

They are the exception that marks the law because in only 1 than 500 interracial combinations ocurred that things. 

They explains that when they say that are twins, everybody tracts them of liars because nobody belives that.

TED TALKS: ISMAEL NAZARIO: What I learned as a kid in jail

Ismael Nazario explains his experience in jail when he was a kid of only sixteen years old. He will change the organization of the american's preasons because the sixteen years old teenagers don't go to correccionals, they go to an adult prison.
He explains that his days in a preason made him reflect on because he live with cruelty and bad methods some days and he saw a lot of people that were think about them future recidivism when they where in prison.

Nazario wants to evit that and he think that the best method is if the preasons were improved because all the inmates pase some time insolated, and that only causes the destruction of inside's person.
Is for that one of the Ismael Nazario's objectives isn't put a teenagers into a militar school, only put them inside a prison where them could improve they habilities and knowledges.

TED TALKS: SHAWN ACHOR: The happy secret to better work

Shawn Achor started his monologue with a lot of humour but the things that he would explain are very important. He said that we will change our way and our vision about success and happiness because that affects to our reality.
If we see the things like a bad things, our body also see them like that!

We are extremly obsess to will find the key of success that we forget the key of hapiness because we move it away. All of us need to revers all affirmations for happiness and success because (for example): the absence of disease is not health; here's how we get to health.

I think that it is true because we can see the glass middle full or middle empty; that depens on our view.


backwards --> synonym of towards
ripple --> synonym of wave

DIALOGUE

Two old women that are in the hospital because they're ill, are in front of the cirurgy room. They see how people change and how many people pass into the room. Moreover they are very gossip, and criticize so many people.

G- Hey! Have you seen the last man? He was very fat and he want a liposuction and the doctor said to him that he needed a nose operation, puajajajaja

L- Sure, I've seen him. He was ridiculous.

G- Yes, he was 200kg jajaja

L- This week a women have done a nose operation, when she's gone she didn't seem the same person; I think that she’s more horrible than before. Don’t you?

G- I think so. And what about the doctor? He is operated from head to toes.

L- Oh,really? I think that he’s horrible! And when he enter with a lot of women… that’s hideous!!

G- He is very superficial, he isn’t kind or sympathetic, he is really hateful. He uses women for his interests, and then he disappears of their lives. He found girls and lowers their self-esteem to force them to be operated.

L- When he pass in front of us we can bump him into the floor.

G- But, he can be operated another time, it isn’t useful. I think we have to kill him, don’t you?..

TALK WITH NOA

Well, I think talking with Noa was a good experience because she explained us her dialy life in Sydney (Australia) and also we coul ask her some  interesting questions like how many hours she worked or if the family treated her well.
Then, she gave us some advice and the steps to contact an agency and then a good family.


I think that a gap year will be a good experience but before I will have finish my degree.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES AND DISAVANTAGES OF HAVE A PET?

When you have pets, you have some not human friends because all the animals have feelings
that they send to you at them form.
But, in my opinion not all the pets are comparable because is different to have a dog or have a
fish... Why? Because when you have a dog you have a authentically friend  that consoles you
when you are sad but, a fish is an animal without a lot of mind capacity but also they can say to
you thank-you when you take care to them.
For other part I think that when you have pets you have a little bit disadvantages like the
illness that they can pass or the problems with they transport, for example.
When you have pets, normally you love them all and when they die you have also a sadly period because are like a persons.

DIALOGUE

First Saturday of March; Lizzy and John, a cuple that marry the next day, wants to sign a prenuptial agreement...

LIZZY -> Darling, we can start with the logical things.

JOHN -> Ok, first I think that my mum will come every Sunday to our house and you can make a special lunch. 

LIZZY -> Why? Your mum hates me John!!

JOHN -> No, she doesn't. She loves you like a daughter.

LIZZY -> I'm sure that's not true but if you want that, I will go every Friday with you to have dinner and then we could go to a pub. I think that 5pm is a good hour to go home..

JOHN -> Oh no Lizzy please! You know that I hate going to party.

LIZZY -> And you know that I hate your mother! ;)

TED TALKS: KHADIJA GBLA: My mother’s strange definition of empowerment

In that video, Khadija Gbla, a Sierra Leona's woman, explains the meaning about FGM and her personal experience about that.
FGM is the mutilation of womans; a commoun think that some Africans do.
Khadija was mutilated for a old woman when she was a child and then she went to leave at the United States. In there and when she was a teenager, she remember the moment of her mutilation and she demands the reason to her mummy but they opinions are very diferent.
Now, she is part of an association that intents to stop that. And she demands the colaboration of everybody.

THREE QUOTES:

"Over my dead body will you do that to my doughters"
"FGM is child abuse, is violence against women"
"all it takes for evil to prevail is for a few good man and woman to do nothing"

The firts of that three quotes is about a parallel story that Khadija Gbla explains. She said that a indian woman has two doughters and she said that quote to her husband when he explains to her the wish of mutilate they doughters.

The other two sentences are quotes that Khadija said in her monologue and I think that this practice on a little child is an horrour.

NEW WORDS:

-Empowerment = enfortiment
-Anger = indignació
-Harming = fer mal
-Dirty = brut, "obsceno"
-Bullshit = tonteries, invencions (s'utilitza com a paraulota també)
