1D concert




Probably a lot of people think live concerts are more incredible and sensitive than video concerts, but now I'm going to show my experience when I watched a very nice video concert.
At first I thought it was only a video and I didn't feel anything special but when I was waiting for the concert to start I was very nervous. 
It's a concert of One direction. 
I watched the backstage and I laughed a lot because I could see the singers are only people, like you and me.
They feel nervous, tell jokes or only play, atound the same than us.
Then when the concert strated I felt very happy and I loved the atmosphere. When I watched the feeling of the fans I could only think: "I will go!"
Now in my hands I hace a ticket and I'm going to watch their live concert in June.

My best coincidence

Nowadays I'm in a relationship with a very incredible boy, Pablo. About this relationship I'm going to explain some coincidences which happened to us. We began to be friends when we entered the high school but we had met some years before. During four years we were only friends, and not special friends, it's true that he was always one of the most important friends in my life but I couldn't imagine some years after he could become my boyfriend. Another and for, us the most important coincidence, is when we want to the same primary school but we had never met(and in primary school there were only three classes). For me he didn't exist and years after one day when I went to his house and I watched a project about "arts and photos" I recognised the school and the project and we were really surprised because probably we could meet before but the destiny joined us in the high school. For us, these coincidences are very special because we see them as a sign of out we need to stay together. 

¿Romantic Horror story? Maybe...

In that moment Peter saw a strange thing on the floor:

Mr. Darcy about Jane Austen

It's not a news but it's good for a listening it's quite short but I can listen the real English and I think it's easy to understand. The video is a intervew with an author. She is a woman who realy love Jane Austen and her story and she do many books about her characters specially about Mr. Darcy. In the interview also appear others authors, they do some others story about the future of Mr. Darcy and Lizzy Bennet, or the family of Mr. Darcy. Specially this kind of books are interesting in Darcy's life. 

The woman who talks in the video explain she began all when she watched the film of Colin Firth adaptation.
And then appear more fans of Jane Austen and specially of Mr.Darcy.


I chose this news because I really love the Jane Austen story and specially Mr. Darcy and I discover many kind of books I can read. I interesting in the topic and also it's good because I can see Pride and Prejudice set a record in the history and I think we need learnt more about it, because probably a lot of people only think this book it's only a book and we can see with the interview it's more than that it's a passion, a love and more things but never only a book. 


Words: I have not to search any words because the vocabulary is easy to understan. 

House of Cards a president's series

This news is about one of most rellevant series in America House of Cards. The second season of hat series begin the last week and many people are in front of TV, one of them was the Obama's president who the day before put in his twitter count this message:

All people in America surprised a lot because nobody thought the president was able to watch this TVseries because that explain the black area in the White House. Even the presiten watch therefore this series is spectacular.
Also the news explain some this with spoilers about the series but the most important and rellevant is the twit of the president.


I chose this news because when I listened, I thought it's incredible the many things we can watch in the ficction maybe can be truth and also it's incredible the president od USA watch this kind of series and I suprised a lot when I listened about his twit because I thought the news was false because I don't understan why a president need to write this kind of twit but then I thought it's only a happy thing. 

Also I watched some episodes about the series and it's quite good, I don't like this type of serie but it's good because everybody can watch the real life of politic.

The most difficult decision

Nowadays a lot of my classmate and I need to take one of the most difficult decisions in out life. We need to decide which tyoe of degree we will do. It is one of the most important decision because it marks, probably, all or a very important part of our life because we are going to decide what thing we want to do in the future.
With this decision all of us are thinking in our perfect job. Probably a lot of people think it is an easier decision but is not because we have a lot of options ans noboby knows what is the best. For that all the poeple say: You need to choose your preference not the most viable because if you do not choose your preference you do a bad job.
I think they are right and all of us need to follow this advice.

My last birthday, (3 of February), my parents gave me some diferent presents but for me the most important was the trip to Firenze. I have always wanted to go to Firenze and my parents made this reality. 
Now I will talk about the beautiful city.
Firenze is one of the most interesting cities because it has a very long history and some of the most beautiful artwotk, that's why I want to visit this city.
Probably I will visit for example the Church of Santa Maria di las flores or the Uffizi Gallery. These things are very interesting and I will encourage everyone to visit them it is a good opportunity.

Yes, I use a prezi it's a good idea if you will a dynamic presentation. I use photos, video and all of things to improve the presentation, not only text.

Are there just key words to explain your message?
Yes, there are. Only specific words. I write only the title of the section. It's truth this time I need to use more words because I thought if my classmate can read the conclusion they understand better all.

Body language & eye contact (10%): 1 point

Social media in class

As Eric Schmidt say "the Internet is the first thing that humanity has built that humanity doesn't understand, the largest experiment in anarchy that we have ever had.” This quote is a good summary of the relationship between humans and Internet.

Nowadays all the world uses social media, specially Internet, to do many hings from searching information, read books to chating friends or listening to music. That's why social media is a good option because you can do the difficul things more easier with Internet or you can improve more aspects about your life for example if you search for many information about beauty you can apply it to yourself.

Although in life all these things are important, it's true that the use of social media is bad for you health and for you intelligence because the radiation of wifi or devices can cause harm to you.
Apart from that it is dangerous because you can becaome an under privileged person if you don't use Internet or if you don't do the same things the other people do.

In conclusion, I would say that if people do a good use of Internet it's a good option but think social media has to be contolled because if nobody does social media may become a big problem.
