The hunger in the world

During a lifetime hunger has existed in many countries and still is a big problem today, a complicated theme to talk and especially to solve. There are people with many resources and another with very few or none. There isn’t an only cause for this, I think there are different causes and that some might be natural resources, climate, politics and culture of each country. We can’t pretend that all countries have the same resources when all change depending on the site, but we should think that there aren’t solutions for extreme situations because of hunger. 1 in 7 people in the world suffer from chronic hunger (undernourished people for being hungry of repeated form) and many are under 5 years old. I think the reason that people suffer hunger and poverty is avarice and selfishness, we don't know share how we should do, we always want more and more… and when we have what we want we stop give importance. I think we have the blame and we have had always the blame, not everyone is conscious of this and there are people who are conscious but they don’t care. Also the governments have the blame because they are so corrupt, they want the money for themselves and they don’t think about millions of people who are suffering. I think there has had always hunger, but not so much like now. It seems impossible to change because many people try, but it isn’t. We should have time and enthusiasm in this theme that is really the most important for now and we should think that today could be them, but tomorrow it could be us.

Impossible!!

A day to remember

I'm going to talk about a day to remember. This day was two years ago, in summer of 2º ESO. I've a friend named Alexis, who is ex-student of Escuela 2 and I'm seeing him from we were childrens because our parents are a very good friends. That summer they invited us to go to Navajas because they have an enormous house there and it's a nice place to pass some days in summer. I had a good idea, Paula maybe could come with us to Navajas and then she went with my mother and me. Every days were very special because we had fun all time, but I want to explain one of this fabulous days because that day we met new friends. In their house they don't have electricity and then we couldn't whatch the TV, open the light, load the phone and the camera... We woke up at 12 o'clock, we had breakfast and after we went to the big swimming pool. After lunch we went to "El salto de la novia", it's a place where are a waterfall and a big ground with grass to sit down there. We were on the grass listening music and after we went inside the lake and the waterfall. Suddenly three boys about 16-18 years old approached us. We had seen the boys before they came to us. Two of them were very handsome and the other was too nice. This last boy was the first that came to us and they asked: Do you have tuenti? My friend wants your tuenti. And then the other two boys appeared. We couldn't stop laughing because the situation was very funny. We were speaking with them about our age or about where we live. Finally they told us: Well, nice to meet you, we'll meet you another day! bye bye! After this we were laughing all day!! It was a nice thing! I would say that that day was very great and special for me because we met that boys who are now a very good friends for me. After that day we did a meeting with them and I became to speak long time with two of them, one of the handsome and with the other nice and funny boy. And now they we are a very good friends. We met them two years ago but now I still speaking with them :) Also I had a enjoyable day with Paula.

The trip to Murcia was for stay in the beach and this trip was for to go to the mountain, then the first day at the morning we were in the mountain, the landscaped were very beautiful . At the evening we were visiting the city. The next day we were also to the mountains and later I spoke with a friend, he told me he was there, in Andorra during these days and then when we were in the hotel he called me and when I went out, he was there.

liked this book very much, I understood everything and I could read it well without complications because the words that I didn’t understand I could be looked at the end of the book where are a small dictionary. It is an entertaining and adventures book and I have enjoyed reading it, also I have learned vocabulary and new expressions. Now I’m going to talk about the story, It’s about a boy called Robbie who is 15 years old, he wants to help his parents because they’re going to change to another house but his parents prefer that he goes on holidays to a Castle where there do an sports activities. When he goes there he meet new and very nice people and they say that there is a gost, Robbie starts being interested in that and in the part of the book It’s about the adventures of Robbie and his friend, Heather, discovering the mystery of the ghost. Some characters appear in the book; like Jake, the boy that competes against Robbie for obtain a treasure; Sally, a new Robbie’s friend that likes Harry Potter stories who loves Robbie; Mrs Sumner, appears in the beginning of the story and is the mother of Robbie; Heather, is a girl who helps Robbie for discover the mystery; and Robbie, the principal character.

The parties 2012

This summer I have gone to many parties, of El Plantío, Paterna, La Cañada, and now in September to Mascamarena. In the first, El Plantío, I invited my friends for sleep at night in my home because the site where they were the parties was next to my house. There was a movil disco but the people didn’t dance we didn’t know why… But we were talking with a friends that we don’t see normally and it was well. This parties were three days but we went only two. After we went to the parties of Paterna, we never had gone. The first day that we went all our friends were travelling and then only Paula and I could go, but it was very nice because we met there with other friends and we were dancing all night. Other day we went with our best friends and that night was very very nice and fun too. At first time the parties of La Cañada were not made because of the money, but finally there were two days of party. After the party we went to Ana's house for sleep there. When the school starts will be the parties of Mascamarena, and we will can go and enjoy in our last parties.

Murcia 2012

The last year I went to Murcia in

summer with my parents for four days. I liked very much stay there because I like stay in a hotel near the sea, the beach, the swimming pool… because when I'm in Valencia I never go to this places. This summer we've gone to the same hotel of Murcia, but I don't have gone only with my parents, with Paula too. Every morning Paula and I went out to the beach for to have the brown skin, after we went to the swimming pool while my parent were in the hotel or were going to other beach more away. We were placed between two beaches, one was the minor sea that had a lot of salt and the other was Mediterranean sea. At lunch we met for eat all together. During the evenings we were going to other beach more different than the beaches that we were going frequently, they were natural beaches, one with golden sand and the other with almost black sand, it was curious. At those places the views were wonderful. There we’re playing to beach games like badminton, the disc… or we were taking photographs. In one of them beaches we were there until the sun goes down and then when we were returning to home the gnats come to us to attack and we ran and ran for arrive to our car. Other day we went to the sea with the canoe and we were there all the evening. At nights Paula and I went out to the garden of the hotel because always there was a singer or putting music, at that time we had the most entertaining experiences, we were laughing every nights. It was been a fantastic travel where we’ll can return.

Go, Lovely Rose

Author:
The author of this book is H.E.BATES and I’m going to speak about he :

He was born on May 16, 1905 in Rushden, Northamptonshire and educated at Kettering Grammar School. After leaving school, he worked as a reporter and a warehouse clerk.
Many of his stories talk about life in the rural areas of England, particularly his native Northamptonshire. Bates was a great lover of the field and countries and he walked in there and that was his inspiration to write.
The first book published was The Two Sisters.

Plot:
This book has three different stories and I caught the last one, named The dam, because I like more than others.

The story is about a girl named Gerda who is sit in the garden of a hotel, behind in another chair there is man who is looking at her, and he is thinking that she’s very beautiful. The man go to she and they begin a conversation. He think that the women are precious, nice.. and he kiss the girl. During the days they fall in love. Other day they go to the station to see the daughter of the Gerda, but she wasn’t happy. The man, Graham, see her daughter, Linda and he think that she’s very very beautiful and she has his years more or less, not like her mother. In the end Graham and Linda fall in love because they begin to know, they have the similar years… and more. They go to live together and Gerda, the mother is sad…

Comentary:
I like the book because I didn’t imagine how will be the story, because it seemed to end Gerda with Graham but not… with Linda. I like very much the story and the book are easy for read but I didn’t understand some words.

Characters:
This story has only three characters and I like the mother because I think is the sincerest person about the rest and is unfair that in the end she is alone.

Navajas

The last month a friend of my mother invited us to go to Navajas.
That friend named Atma is the mother of Alexis and they have a home there, in Navajas. There are in the mount joust up El salto de la novia, it’s a famous place in Navajas. My mother, Paula and I went to Navajas to stay there three days.
In their house they don't have electricity and we could not see the TV, open the light, load the phone and the camera... Then all the days Paula, Alexis and I were playing cards, but it was enterteining.
We arrived to navajas in the evening, Paula and I choose our room for these two nights and we put our things in the cupboards. Afer, we dinner pizza all together.
The second day Alexis wasn’t with us because he had to go to the birthday of her friend of the school. Paula and I had an enterteining and graceful evening playing to board games, after we went with my mother and her friends to El salto de la novia, there are a waterfall where the people puts down.
When we arrived my mother and her friend sat down in the grass and we also, but far from them jajaja. There we knew three boys from Valencia and now we will stay one day with them. We end the day walking in the night in the town of Navajas.
The third day we stayed with Alexis and we stayed in his house like is usual playing cards. At night we went to the town like the last day.
The next morning Paula, my mother and I after ate we went to Valencia.
I hope that we return to go to Navajas. :)

Barcelona

My mother, my grandmother and I went to Barcelona for two days.
We installed in a hotel placed in the center, the hotel was very good and from there you could go to all the places.
The first day in the evening we visited la Rambla, there it's a very long street where the people buy things created by them like a clocks, bracelets or shirts of Barcelona also they realize actions of break dance.
That day we visited also the Maremagnum, there is a commercial center where all the people go to the shops of clothes, restaurants… and I bought earrings.
The second day we visited La Sagrada Familia that’s a cathedral created by Gaudí but when he died it wasn’t finished and other architects will finish it.
When we arrived to the hotel my mother parked the car and she doesn’t know that it was prohibited and when we wanted go to our house of Valencia the car wasn’t there. My mother had to pay a fine and later we could go to my house!

In Carol's chalet

Paula and I went to Carol’s chalet for two days, we went to Olocau.
We had a campaign in the garden because we wanted to go to a camping but our parents didn't want.
The first evening we were in the chalet playing cards, bathing, taking many photographyes…
The second day we went to the beach named Canet at 12 a.m, but we went for mistake to the side where everything was a stone. We ate in the beach and were whole evening.
at the night we went to the parties of Olocau, in the parties was only the people of there and we hoped that there was movil disco and the people was dancing. But when we arrive only saw grandparents that dancing with that music... we waited the disco movil and when we were going to the chalet, sounded the music that we hope.
We laugh and entertain very much these days, I hope to repeat.

Murcia

When we arrived there we installed in a hotel, it was great, the hotel was between two beach, one was the minor sea that had a lot of salt and the other was Mediterranean sea. The hotel had a swimming pool, a golf course and a square where every night a girl was singing in a scene.
I was four days in Murcia, all the mornings my parents were in the room and I was going to the beach and I was sunbathing, was speaking for telephone, was reading…
In the evening we were going to the beach or we were visiting Murcia, later we were going to dinner in a restaurant, normally fished, except my father who is vegetarian.
After dinner while my parents stayed in the room I was going out, in the garden of the hotel to speak for telephone to tell everything to my friends and I arrive to the room at twelve or one o'clock in the morning.
In this trip I relaxed very much and lost the stress that I had.
I hope to return to go because I liked it very much, but the near time I will invite my best friends.

The parties

There are a parties in la Cañada, three consecutive days.
I went to the parties all the nights, every day did something different but always in the square of la Cañada.
The first day there was movil disco where all the people were dancing following the music. Also made a paella competition before the movil disco.
After the party Paula.S, Carol, Ana, Paula.P and I went to the Ana’s house at three a.m, we were all the night at her home and we went to sleep at six a.m, was a good night.
The second day there was only movil disco but it was suspended and it sounded a unknow group.
The third night there was verbena but we didn't like it so we go to the park. After there was a movil disco and we went to dance.
This night they went to my house and we stay there all the night.
At four of morning Carol was connect at tuenti and she was speaking with a friend, Jorge, and he told her that he and two friends were in the garden gate, in my house. We went out and saw them, my parents were sleeping and that boys are not silent but I let them into my house.
The parties were well but I liked more the parties of Plantio because there were more people, I was more enjoy and every day they was movil disco.
I also went with Paula and Carol to the parties of Olocau, we went only one day, there was very few people but there was fun.

My birthday's day

The most special day, my birthday.
All the birthdays I do the celebration.
I organized a party with my class friends, only the girls, because in the other birthdays I invited all the class and this year I preferred only girls.
The first thing we did was go to a swimming pool at five or six p.m, that was good, after we went to the park to picnik.
Then we went to my house and we did the beds and prepared our room to stay in that night.
Before dinner we went to the plaza and there we bought a slush and horchatas to drink. When we arrived to my house we had dinner and we didn't had hunger but my mother appeareds and said: pizza for dinner today! and we said: ooh no problem, now we want dinner :P
After dinner we went out to a big wood and my father did a game: He was lost in the woods with a red light for that we could saw him. We parted in two groups, all the groups had a lantern, and we must found him.
We were all the night awake, and we took photographies,we played cards, we spoke about our secrets… and more things.
I liked the birthday, it was well, and thanks you all for coming :)

MY OPINION:
I like this book because the main thing is that the story you like and this book is very interesting and exciting. Is easy to read, but I think I must catch a more easy level because I don't know much vocabulary and when I was reading the book I find much vocabulary that I don't knew.. and I had to find at the dictionary.
