FACEBOOK, AN EASY WAY TO KEEP IN CONTACT.

How could college students have thought that this would be a global social network? Well, they just started out strictly and it was available by invitation only. But thanks to them, this is the social network that I use the most.

It is really easy to have a facebook account. You just have to go into facebook website, go into "want an account" and that is all. Easy to start, isn't it?
With this social network it is easier to find your friends and family. If you don't find them by their name and surname, you can try to find them by their email. Also, you can receive messages, comments and send them to all your friends. You can have many as friends as you want. I find Facebook a really good way to keep in touch with most of my friends that are not from my own country.

Then, the only disadvantage that I think this social network has, is that if you want to use it from your mobile phone, you can't use “the online chat”.

I would recommend this social network to anyone, even to those people that think social networks are not secure, because facebook gives you the possibility of setting your privacy -showing your photos only to your friends or to everyone. Whats more, you can be found in facebook by everybody or no one, it depends entirely on you.

Advantages and disadvantages of a consumer society

I CONSUME, SO I EXIST? Have you ever made yourself this question? The answer could be quick, but let me tell you something…

It’s evident that if you have the money, you can get everything you need as often as you need it. You have access to unlimited information, to primary services of better quality. As well, you can choose a wide variety of products with all the warranties. “Money is all around “, but money does not buy happiness.

A lot of psychological problems are caused by work, especially the competitive nature of it: “I need it and I need more”. The family is the most affected, “all for the family but without the family”. And sometimes you have all yet, even when you have it all, you need something more like drugs, alcohol and other substances.


What kind of life do you want? You can consume but you should try not to be consumed. It’s only one advice.

I am still here!

Yes!I am here!One year later, I'm going to follow this wonderful blog. Unfortunately, I'm going to be the only writer on this blog, because my mates are not with me right now. Teresa is studying in the USA (I admit that I'm a little bit jealous, how wonderful is to be available to study in another country!) and in the otherhand, Ana has just made an another own blog. Also I have changed the colours, and now is not a romantic blog, is a HAPPY BLOG! But I am getting confused, because wait...how did I put the colored letters?Oh yes, I have just remember!
Thank you, and enjoy yourself! :)

Here you have my new favourite song Airplanes, I hope you'll like it!

2nd Term - Blog work evaluation

Undoubtedly one of the best blogs in the class because of its design and quality of the posts. You have done a great job to help you improve your mark, but above all to be more efficient in communication. Congratulations.

love.

Love is hard. Love it’s incredible and sometimes sad, very sad because you suffer so much because you love a lot. Who tell me that it is a lie, that no suffers, it’s because you don’t love as much or have not really loved. It’s incredible because you enjoy like a child, it’s incredible because love has the ability to change you, love is in itself INCREDIBLE.

Green eyes

It's hard to understand, that someone will never return to your life, perhaps "nevers" doesn't really exist. One day you wake up with a feeling of loneliness and melancholy. For a moment, someone who you didn't even remember gets in your mind... When we come down, we return to past. Sometimes we chain to that memories, derpiving ourself to taste and feel our future, we keep on remembering the magic moments, adding more magic than it really has..and you feel like if everything reminds you of him, of those green eyes. We think, imagine, dreamed plans, perfect travels, moments worthy of the best love movies. But they are just that, they don't go any far, they don't even seem to be real,not anymore. They are only thoughts that chain us much more to something that is not anymore with you. But we have to learn how to survive with that feeling. Close doors, go ahead, come what may.. but keep on walking on your way. Even if it hurts. Sometimes we think that leaving something behind us that filled us with euphoria hurts even more than having it.
We touch the bottom and we know we can't leave it even knowing it hurts.. we get scared. But however we get a better reward, like smile for yourself, learn to be alone, or let go everything that doesn't deserve you, is inexplicable.
One day you wake up knowing that whatever happens, you are not part of that past that for a long time, kept you smiling...

Hello girls! we want to go to Sierra Nevada next weekend. Would you like to join us?
We have already organised the travell. At first we can meet each other in Plaza de Armas, we'll pick you up there in our car. It will take about 3 hours and a half to arrive at Granada. There we can visit some interesting places and spend a day and then go to Sierra. The next morning we'll pick up the ski equipment and go to the ski slopes. All of us love skiing but if you don't like as we do you can go snowboarding.

You should answer us now if you want to come, because we have to rent an apartament and reserve the snow clothes.

Everybody can fall in love

Welcome once again lovers. Now we'll show you an interview that we've just done to our psychologist Rosa. Hope you'll like our teachers' young romances.

T&A&J: So, tell us a little bit about you. Are you in love?
Rosa: Yes,I am. I'm married!
A&T&J: oh, of course. But when did you first fall in love?
Rosa: mm, I think when I was fifteen. But anyway it didn't go as good as I'd like to. You know around that ages you feel deeper everything.
A&T&J: And have you ever visited a romantic place?
Rosa: Yes, of course! I've been to Paris, Rome..I think both of them are the most romantic places I've visited.
A&T&J: We agree with you. And what about your first love story?
Rosa: well, I think I hanged out for the first time with a boy, when I was seventeen. We didn't spend so much time together but I still remember every detail.

Here we leave you our love song.

Cheers

Do you know what? Now..I'd like to close my eyes, and appear wherever you are. And appear in one of those days where we can't stop laughing in class. Or those afternoons when we are asleep and we have to shake each other to wake up in maths..I can tell you how grateful I am.. Now I'd love to give you a big hug of those that leaves you breathless and tell you that whatever happens and whatever the rest of the people do, I'll be there. I'd like to shout to all that silly people who don't see in you the same as I do. But most of all I would like to tell you that everyday we'd do everything that we love doing, and we'll be as happy as we deserve to be.
We have fought, cried and most of all laugh at everyone and with everyone.
Thank you

The distance.

One day I realised those people that in a way or another gives you life...people that you look up to and say: ''how I wish they were forever...''people that you miss like if it had passed a month, and in fact it has just passed a day without them...and then I realise that the person is you, that the reason for most of the things are you, that I want to rage when I can't feel you near me because you are so far away, and I try to find the guilt to excuse and I try to fool myself...But there's only one reason, my lover; The most difficult is not the first moment, is the last.
Here you have a really nice song, Goodbye my lover- James Blunt

Here comes the sun

Last summer we spent all august on the beach. I was swimming when a girl bumped into me. I was angry I wanted to shout to that girl but when I looked back I saw ANA. We were so happy to meet each other again so we planned something for the day. I called her when I finished eating and I told her what i had decided. She agreed so I took her to the downtown of Punta Umbria. I showed her the best little shops of beach wraps, she saw a nice ankle bracelet and bought it.Then I took her to the best place of seafood there are delicious crabs. After that, when we were as inflated as a balloon we came back home. I think it was about 8 or 9 pm when we arrived home. We were sweating so we had a shower, get dressed and went out again. Ana wanted to stay with me so she called her mother and asked her if she could sleep in my house and luckily her mother allowed her. So first I called some friends and after we met we decided where to go. They knew a good bar where there's a pool so we went there. We had some drinks and then we went to the beach. It was one of the most beautiful nights of all the summer. It was full moon and the moon was shining as the sun. It wasn't too cold so we went swimming. It was so funny, while we were running to the sea Ana fell down and we started to laugh at her. She didn't get as angry as we though she would so we came back to the start and ran again. The water was in its best temperature but the worst thing were the fishes... When I saw the first one next to me, I think that my scream was heard for all Punta Umbria. After fifteen minutes we went out the sea and tried to dry as much as we could. And when we were dry we started to return home. We walked half an hour until we arrived home. We were exhausted so after we lay on the bed It didn't take more than ten minutes until we were sleeping.
It was one of the best days of the summer.
Here it is a beautiful view of Punta Umbria.

Working classblog

Please click on the image and make sure you complete the activities. This will be our working classblog for the rest of the course. You will find a brief description of all the activities and how to accomplish collaborative activities through the blog. You can also access to other classmates blogs from here. It would be great if you put it into sidebar (customize>add a gadget>HTML/JavaScript>copy image or URL), so that you can easily remember what you still have to do.

How strange does it feel when we are not distracted, when we have no hurry, when we know how to stop.
And smile ,and understand, and close our eyes, and even feel each second passing us. And know how to live all of them, and taste them with a smile, with worries, with hope, with wishes, with clarity, with any doubt. But tasting them, tasting them thoroughly.
I wish I could go back in time, like if it was a DVD, to see you. Or even better than watch you on a TV, do it in the cinema. And sit in the front row, with a big popcorn bucket, and watch the movie of your life in silence, without anyone annoying me.
Here it is one of my favourite songs enjoy YELLOW

Riddles 1

Hi guys, here is a riddle for the weekend (first person who knows it, cleverest boy/girl in the class this week)


Although I'm not alive, I grow. Although I don't have lungs, I need air. Although I don't have a mouth, water kills me.
What am I?

A little city in the middle of the sea

Surprised, from the top of the mount we stare marveled at the rising tide. Absorbed,we watch how in a few minutes the sea enters the land,swamping it; as the water slips covering the beaches and how inch by inch the powerfull
streight of the sea comes nearer to the feet of the mount. Our look gets lost in that blue atlantic sea that soon has changed in to a huge deep blue and then, our mind remind us that moment when we arrived to that magic island.

when the sun goes up

I like sunny days because it's like if you were here ... but really you are not. I like them, because they remind me of you. They bring me your perfume or at least the perfume I imagine you have, since you're not with me. And then when the sun shines like before, I like to go out and fill me of you. The sun's reflection reminds me of when you left, and that makes me feel a little better because, unintentionally, reminds me that someday you came with that sun to stay. I like the heat of those days and maybe because it makes me feel you close to me, or at least much closer. This heat reminds me of you. So when it´s a sunny day and I am alone, I wonder where you are, what are you doing...And I imagine that these same rays of sun will make you think of me too. Because I had too that sun in my memories. And that´s when I like it. Because I think, that´s the moment when we meet..again.

Have you heard about us?

Hello! I´m not going to introduce myself with the usual one: hello, my name is...etc no! I prefer to say what I feel and how I feel. This is not just to say how I feel, but also to help others to avoid mistakes, the same mistakes that i have made. Well, let´s go to the point and here it is: Thinking sincerely... Everytime you think, you may think in a positive way, or you may not. Probably you´ll think about something that worries you, or something that has upset you. Today I´m here thinking, reviewing,reviewing my life. Do you know what? Now, I´m better than ever. I stand and think: - I can't believe hoy good I am..I feel good with he, with my them.. You know what, you might not think so, but when you're not good with any of your closest friends, even if you say you don't mind, you know it's not true. You need that person close to you, because it will arrive the moment when you´ll really need them. Now, I want everything to be perfect. I want to be good with you. You are good with me and good to me. I don't know who might be reading this, but whoever you are, fight..fight always for the people you really love and need. If you don't you'll regret it a lot.

Hello lovers, how are you doing?
At first I´d like to introduce myself.
My name is Teresa. I´m fiveteen years old but finally in one week I´ll be happily sixteen.
I live in Seville, do you know it?
It´s a wonderful city..full of old buildings especially from the Islamic culture and from the renaissance and baroque. The most beautiful buildings are the "Giralda"from the Islamic culture, the chapter of the cathedral from the renaissance and from the baroque the "Salvador".
But let´s go back to the main thing.
I like hanging out with my friends, they are my center of gravity. I like reading too it is along with the piano my passion. In my life there are some fundamental things that I need... my friends and my piano although I think everyone needs friends in their lifes.
I love travelling too. One of my wishes is to live in another countries and know different cultures, diffirent kinds of people...
So that´s all I can tell you about me
I hope you´ll enjoy our texts and please don't hesitate to join us with your comments.
Big hug guys, take care of you and make your life as magnificent as love is
TERESA

Heya guys!I'm gonna write about myself...are you ready?You're gonna be impressed...well, last week I killed my neighbour because...no I'm kidding!haha...Seriously now. I'm Julia, just a normal girl from Seville at the south of Spain. And I live in a normal apartament...with normal neighbours. NORMAL, NORMAL, haha. I don't have too much interesant to say...but, the thing that I have to say I like the most is...all and each one of my friends. Maybe because I'm fifteen now, they're the most importan for me. We can stay all the day toguether and perhaps without doing anything, but just with them. And what we are waiting for all the the weekdays?The WEEKEND. And there's something that maybe the boys don't understand, like...we can start to planning what we're gonna wear or what we're gonna do on monday and everything is for the friday...but the best is when fridays comes and...we don't do nothing that we were planing from all the week!and also I love to spent three hours in front of the mirror with my best friend just for make up...haha. Now maybe for all I have just written you are thinking that I left a doll's box and I'm a barbie. But not!I can do another things...like I love to play basketball!To be honest my team and me not always win...but the most important I think is that we can be one, because each one do something diferent and important for the rest. And with this, I don't need nothing more. Now you know something about me...but you will know more!But just when my english teacher force me to do it. No, I'm joking again haha. See you soon!
And remember, take care and enjoy yourself!
JULIA
