Gap year

Some weeks ago we were speak with Noa, a student who has finished last year Batxillerat and now she is in Australia doing a gap year like an au pair.

She explained to us how her days there are so what she has to do in his work, how she get to arrive at Australia, which places she loves more and how she feel.

A think that it she said is he feel homesick and she said that before she goes, she doesn’t spent to much time with her family and she said when she is going to come back she is going to spent more time with her family.

What I think about the gap year?

I think is very interesting and is a new experience in our lives so if a have the possibility to do it, I can go. I have my friend Micael who goes to Blackpool to work there only on summer and now he stay  there and he do the exams to go to university there.

Go in a place where you only can speak the language from there it helps you a lot because you have to learn and hurry because you have to live there. When I was young I have done that because everybody speaks to me in Spanish.

In conclusion I like a lot the idea of the gap year and if you find something like Noa or Micael is better because you don’t have 

Soulmate

What is that? It’s true that everybody has a different idea about it and we commented in class and we said different things.

For me a soulmate can be a friend, a familiar or your partner. This person can have the same character than you or it can be completely different but you know "Opposite poles attract".                          

This one have to be with you in the best but to the worst to, has to make you be better person, make you feel great. If you can see I associate it more with a couple because you normally during the years, you try to found your soulmate and why not this one is going to be your life partner.

I don’t know, this topic can be difficult to define like the human rights.

Barcelona

Some weeks ago my boyfriend and I were decided to spend a weekend in Barcelona because we wanted to disconnect a little bit from l’Alt Empordà.

We take the AVE to go to Barcelona. The first day was the best one because for he was the first time that he go to Barcelona, because he is from Alicante, and he was impress because he said that everything is very beautiful.

We were visited the Montjuic, we gone on Plaça Catalunya and all the center of the city. We go shopping too and we take a lot of pictures.

After lunch we meet with my cousin’s girlfriend and we go their flat. We watched a film as long as my cousin arrives from the work. When he arrived we start to laugh a lot because my cousin is very funny. At the evening we done the dinner and we celebrated my 19^th birthday.

It was a really great weekend and I have to say that my boyfriend and I are a very good tourist’s jajaja 

Oral presentation

In this oral presentation I used a Prezi to explain better the information and I used some pictures too. It was during approximately 7 minutes.

In comparison than the last presentation, in this one, I speak more fluently and I have not to stop a lot to see my paper so I think with that I improve a little bit.

I had done some mistakes with the pronunciation and with the grammar too.

For me a 7 was perfect but the final mark about the oral presentation is an 8 so I’m very happy!!!!  

Abstract

Tampa police make arrests in tortured dog case, security video points to teens

Tampa police have arrested two teenagers last week because they are shooter a young pit bull mix that was left for dead.

The teenagers aggraded cruelty the animal and they shooter her multiple times.

The neighbored heard gunshots and they called the police.

Cabela, the dog, was train to be used in dog fighting but she was not good and they want to get rid of her. She was found tied after 3 shoots. She could not get away.

The dog has the right for the leg amputated because the damage was several but a metal rod was inserted.

There are a lot of donations to help the rehabilitation of Cabela which during six weeks.  

Opinion:

I choose this news because it is incredible that there are some persons who has not feelings and they can do that with a poor animal who has not the fault because he is good and not aggressive.

There are a lot of cases that it happened and nobody said nothing. I think that the market of animals has to be more regaled and look after about the future proprietaries but that is not going to happened.

When I see all this news I feel so impotency because I cannot help this animals. I saw some month ago what happened with the dogs In China and I have to stop the video because it was too much for me.

I hope that in one day all that is going to happen and all the animals were in families which love them because I think that have a pet and see how he love you is amazing.

Student body on strike

Secondary schools pupils and university students went on the streets the 26^th on February to express their indignation of the new law that Wert wants to put at the system of the education. This law want to reduce the duration of university course from 4 years to 3. There were 7,000 students who protested on the streets of Barcelona.

A lot of Universities supported the strike: Universitat de Girona, Universitat de Barcelona, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya and others.

The Associació de Joves de Catalunya said that it was a success and says that they are not going to accept any reform of school and university system.

Opinion:

I disagree with this law and the day that the manifestation was, I wont to go but it was impossible because we have History exam.

The next years, if this law start, only rich students are going to study because it is going to be very expensive. They want to put 3 years of degree and 2 of Master but this one is going to be private.

In my case, if this law starts, I have to forget to go to study because for me is very expensive and I’m going to study another think, not what I want to study.

I have to say that the system of study that nowadays we have, is the worst that I never seen and it is going to be worsted.

Mobile in classrooms

Nowadays mobile phones are more used at schools, the teachers are absent minded and angry because the students use Whatsapp in the classes. There are schools that use phons to work in classrooms but only a few schools.
On the Mobile Worls Congress the use on mobile phones appears that it is going to change and the School Concial of Catalonia presented the Mobile technologies for schools. This document encourages the use of mobiles phones in the classrooms.
A secundary school in Tarragona works with phones and Palamós secundary school has been using laptops and digital books for si years and now adopted phones and they think that teachers have to accept that students hav contact with the technology.

Opinion
I agree with this news because my generation, for example, has grown up at the same time than the technology and if we work at home with it, we should work at school too.
On the other hand, I think that it is not very good for our sight because we are going to look at small screens during the day and a lot of people are going to have problems with the eyes.
