A MOnTH WiTHoUT liFe

When I started second of batxillerat I thought the first term would be the most difficult of the year owing to the Research Project but when it passed, my feelings changed.
Then, I believed that the worst was still to come, but now, is the time for not stopping, not sleeping, study very hard and do a lot of Philosophye summaries and others..., as well as not much free time to do anything.

Consequently, I'm planing my timetable, but nowadays I can't get used to all what I must do.
The best advice I can give myself is that I need to be relaxed and to be alert. It'll be difficult for me because I'm not constant, well, I always do my homework... but I need to have breaks so as not to get fed up with all that.

The only thing I hope is that my classmates will help to create a relaxed atmosphere to not ::::::::getting stressed.

Concretly I hope Marta doesn't remind me every day about the amount of work to do. Jejje

Hello dad and mum!

Today has passed one month since I left home, so I have thought it's time to write to you. I have a lot of things to tell you about Cameroon because it is very different from Catalonia and Spain.

Do you want to know what my residence's place here is like?
I sleep in a hut and arround me there are cows and other animals, it's funny because the other day a goat come into my hut and when I saw it I was scared because I just woke up.

Well, talking about people, they are very good persons, they always want to help one to each other but Cameroon is very poor. Some children can't go to school because the family don't have transport and moreover they don't have money. What is the worst is the ill children, it makes me very sad because the majority suffer a sickness because they starve. Every day I cure fifty boys and girls.

I would like to do more than I do.

Don't worry about me, I'm well.

Love u! See you soon.

Cris.

Something useful!


TGIF everybody!

Today most of you are happy because you have a week's holiday but I am not, fortunatly because I think I'll be working everyday. So, I have thought in some way to do more work in a shorter time and as I won't have enough time to do all my homework, I have decided do a composition about philosophy to go through the lesson and at the same time, practice English.

Well, let's go..
I'm going to talk about hapiness which is a topic talked about by Schopenhauer, the Nietzche's teacher. Schopenhauer defense the irracionalism and he is a Romantic person. He was born on 1788 and he died on 1860. His philosophyc starting pount is that existence is absurd, only is used to fix the species on the Earth. He always thinks there are pain and suffering life and he tries to go on without religion and the consolation. His arguments to say that happiness is not possible are:
- Human are moved by wishes.
- It's impossible not to suffer because if we satisfay our wishes then we are bored so we are disatisfied.
- If I don't make real my wishes, because 'm generating more of them, agains and again, also I'm disatisfied.

Well, in my opinion this man is right, We can only smile because punctually we are good but generally we can't be happy.

Anyway, you can suppose this theme is more complicated and I daren't to go in depth with this topic because I haven't learned it yet.

Have a good holiday!

A STRANGE FEELING


Hello!

This is my last composition to this term.

I suppose everyone of you know Robin has passed his driving test. You will ask yourself why I feel strange...
Ok!, that is because I have been going out with him for two years and I am used to see him without car... eventhough he has car, I think he can't drive because I see him like a little boy. I know he is eighteen but it is difficult taking for granted he is enough old to do a lot of things.
Well, as you know why the stranges feelings, I will tell Robin I have read his entry talking about me and I want to tell him thanks for all and thanks for stay close to me and be like he is.

Apart from wishing you everything I hope all goes good in London, I hope you get high marks.

Have a nice weekend!!

A DiFfeRent Expirience


Hi guys!
This entry is going to talk about a new expirience for me. In Fortià, concretly in my street lives a boy who is 10 years old and studies third of primary. His parents are Lithuanian and they have lived here for 4 years. The boy started to go Fortia's school but he didn't understand anything and moreover he didn't pay attention because he doesn't like school. The time passed and my parents and his parents got friends. One of the last summers I wanted to teach Catalan or do extra tuition to people who need it, so Eimans's parents came to visit me because they had decided to bring his child to my classes. Nowadays I help him to get some money.
At first I didn't know how to start to teach him because I didn't know his level, etc. I made him do a dictation and I could see he didn't know anything, at even how to write. He pretended to write something but really he couldn't. So I was shocked and the next thing we did was learn the alphabet, the vowels and the consonants. Luckily now he can write and also he knows tha basic grammatical rules.
I'm very proud and glad for him because he can continue a normal class.

A Sultry World Is Found Orbiting a Distant Star

This piece of news talks about discoveries of stars, possible planets and other space's elements.

This bring me to think on our planet and about what we are doing to destroy it, so I'm going to talk about the Earth and I'll use some words related to the Environment, taking advantage of what I have studied them in class.
First of all I tell you that there is no solution to save the planet from pollution or from the crisis. Talking about pollution, is definitly impossible to arrange the Earth because it's too late so in the future the people who has money will go to another planet and poor people will be ill and they'll die. I know I am very drastic but the real life is like you can read here. Therefore if we discover new renewable resources they will not be enough to stop with all that.
Well, and less not speak about crisis. I don't know if it will be able to be repared because work at the moment is too bad.
I would like to have hope but I have already lost it.

Do you think the crisis will improve? When?

Is my mind clear?


Today my class has gone to Girona's University. This has been the last visit to the Universities so it means I won't get more opportunities to obtain information about different careers.
Now is the moment for thinking seriously in my future life because the time is going on and I am every day nearer the final decision. In Girona I have listened the Biology chat but I really want to study veterinary, it is my wish and I am going to fight for it, but I don't know if I am not able to get in it because I need a 7,5 and there are subjects which stop me getting the mark.
Also I have to look for the registration prices. I hope everything goes well because now I have other personal problems and things are more complicated.
Anyway, now I can try the "selectivitat" subjects and I am not sure about it. If it was left to me I would choose Biology because I think I can pass it, but If I try this, then the other subjects like Chemistry, Maths and Earth Science which I can take the exam willingly round up less. So I don't know what I can do. It's a difficult decision.

As you can see I haven't made my mind up.

What a weekend!


Hello everybody!

This month is full of parties because it is Carnival time. Last weekend I went to the Roses's carnival. Before going there I went to Berna's house with other friends and we had dinner together. We had supper at eleven o'clock and the dinner was prepared by Iñaki, Berna and me. We ate roast potatoes with grilled meat which were bought by Galí. After that we started to prepare ourselves, I mean, we dressed up of as Guti and at 2 o'clock in the morning we caught the but and went to Roses.
In the bus some og them sang... because they were a little bit drunk. Once there, it took us half an hour to find the place where the party was. We asked the people who met on the street where was the carnival but at that time all of them were paraletic and each of them said to us different things.
Well, finally when we found the marguee, we saw other people and friends and we spend a good time. Moreover I met Pablo, a friend who I hadn't seen for a year.
When we got fed up, we decided to return home by bus but the problem was that the bus was going one hour later so I looked for somebody who drive me to Castelló to Berna's house. I was lucky so I could get back. All these would be ended if the next day or on the same day, as you want, I wouldn't have had to go to work. I could sleep two hours.

Saturday when I finished work I went to Castelló again and we went to "El Chic". I was absolutley exhausted but I kept on.

Do you know what did I do on Sunday¿?

Guess what!!!
