Final reflection

Well we have finished this hard year, and I'm much better now that at the beggining. I loved our English class, participating in some talkings, activities, and listentings wich we've done in this year. My best improvement was on the oral presentations. I think that each presentation was better than the last one and I'm glad to know that I'm getting better English level. I know that I have to learn from my mistakes and do my best to evoid them, but everytime there will be a new mistake, and a new prupose to get the best level of English.
Well before I forget I'll say that the post which shows my best English level is about the Frankenstain. In that post I was very concentrated and tried to not makeany mistake and use a lot of linkers and words which enrich my post.
Also I found very useful the listening task because if you're good on writing tasks and vocabulary you must learn how to spell the words and start to talk with others in English. This shows your real level of English, and I think that talking I'm fluent and I my spelling is quite good.
Going to the next question I want to say that everything was useful because I learnt from every task I've done and all activities vere worth to do .
For my ending I want to ask my English teacher something that I need next year in English class obligatory and it's oral presentations. Why? Well because I've learnt a lot from them and also I practiced my speaking. Well also I would meet next year the listenings which grows my mark of the exams. I enjoyed really this year and hope so the next year.

After the batxillerat

Sometimes I start to think about what should I do after I end batxillerat, and my wish is to inscribe in girona's University, and study ingeneer. When we went there for first time, I got a felling that coming here to study, would be great. I really want to try this because I'm interested on it, and if it's not possible to go, I'll try to go at Superior Cycle degrees, and study for informatic and electronic. But I'll work hard to get my first option. If you want something , you have to work hard for it.

Film review- Prince of Persia


Last week I've seen this amazing movied in the cinema, and I liked it a lot. The movie is about a adventurous warrior that fights against other people, go on exciting places and do impossible things, like go to the past.
in my opinion this movie is bit fantastic and short, there could be the second part of this great movie. In other words I love this kind of movies, that people go on war and get in love with somebody important in the movie. If I were you, I'd go to see this great movie, it's worth of it. Oh and don't forget the popcorns hahahah!

This can't be happening ?!


Last day I heard from my friend that cinemas aren't going to put all the good films which we want to see, for example Saw VI. I loved the fifth part of this horror movie, and I would watch this one too like the others, but they decided that this part is too cruel and this can influence people in some bad way, I don't believe that, they just want to put movies which will get most audience and not some exciting movies that are worth of the approval. Now I just can download this movie from internet and watch it at home, but it's not the same feeling which you get watching in the cinema. This is my opinion about the clean cinema idea, what do you think about it?

Communication

Centuries ago the humans need to contact with other people who lived far away from each other, and taking a journey, it was bit dangerous and expensive. So they started sending letters, and this was a good idea, without going outside you could write a simple letter to your friend to ask how's he going, or ask for some information. Nowadays we don't use much this idea of sending letters, instead of this, we call to our fried by phone, or write to him by e-mail or write to him at instant message program. What will happen in the future, will the communication change to a new one and be the best of all? Will this change our lives? What we know is that, we will be able to speak with all the people arround the world whenever we want.

BBC news:


Men's skin cancer of laying too many hours on the beach has doubled in over 30 years. This cancer can bring even the death if it's not controled. Womans also may get this cancer more often, to prevent this we should put on a t-shirt and a hat to protect against the sun, or sunscreen. It depends of the age of the people to know if they will probably die of this cancer or not. I think that we should respect more our skin, and always try to put on some clothes , to not get burnt or absorb too many ultraviolated radiations. In my own case I try to put on the sunblock or a hat, because this isn't a joke, everyone could die from this.

Oral presentation - Racism









Observation of oral presentation:

For my oral presentation I used internet to look up the info. I think the information was good summarised and attractive, and the audience laught in some cases. I tried to keep the eye contact, and don't read everything from my notes, but some definitions were difficult so I looked a bit. To keep my audience paying attention, I tried to change my voice into higher or funnier, also including funny photos and examples.
Between that, I organised well my information in order of importance, and I had to include more discourse markers.
My information was new and relevant, so they paid attention while I was explaining it to them. This helped me to concentrate and keep with the exposition. My grammar was fine, but it was bit poor and I had to use more linkers and fillers.
My pronounciation was good enough and I tried to change my voice, including some breaks to get started next point. Well In my opinion I think I'm worth of 7. =)

Robot arm controled by the mind


People with amputeed part of body like arm can now feel his hand moving again and live much better.
I think it's a very good idea to help theese people who lost the hope, beeing able to touch somethink by his hand , or walk with his own feets. This technology is just a prototype to a future one which will change sad lifes to a hopefull one.
I think that is good idea to control your hand by the mind and be able to grab or touch things that you've couldn't before.

Summer time

I'm waiting the last day of third term, so after this I'll go right to the beach and take a relaxing sleep and later a cold bath in the sea. This summer I'll be working , but with the time it's difficult to find a job.
In my opinion this summer will be the hottest , because today were 32 degrees and last 2 months to summer, so it will be like a hell hot. I'm waiting desperately summer, and end this school year. I need to relax this summer as most as possible. Hope you relax too.

Holidays on the beach or mountain



Some people chose beach maybe for more relaxing holidays and stay calmly near the hotel. Others preffer more active holidays like going to a mountain and stay the day looking at beatiful views round the mountain . I like both of each, because everytime going to the beach is bit boring, and I love more active holidays, so one week I spend on beach, and the next climbing a mountain and enjoy the beautiful views.
I recommend the beach for thoose who don't like walking all the dayin nature and they get exhausted, for thoose who don't like to spend the whole day lying on the sand and taking a relaxing bath in the sea should go to a mountain or visit some interesting places like museums, or memoral statues round the city.

Sleep disorders & Problems


When you're in the class or at work, and while you're looking to something you don't realise that your eyes are closing, and you get like a moment of distraction. Well that happens because the night before you didn't sleep well or, you were so tired that the rest time wasn't enough. This problem can cause some bad symphtoms like changing your mood, your way to act, and most of the time you fell tired or sleepy.

There are diferent types of sleep problems like Insomnia, sleep apnia, snoring, restless legs syndrome, narcolepsy, and others. All of them have a specific cause that makes them sleep when they don't want to. If you have problems with your sleep time, and you often fell angry or not in mood for that , you should visit a doctor, and he'll help you to solve this problem.

Well today I felt sleepy a bit but it seems that was because, I've passed too many hours reading a book last night. =D

Games


Games have involved everybody mind as he was child, it was a good way to pass the time and also learn some history, something new or something that you didn't thought that exists in real life.I say that I'm not addicted to games, but sometimes I like to play a bit to forget all the things that I have in my head. There are a huge line of types of games, like MMO , RPG, shooter, Online, and more. Well to play a game you don't have to be a child, old people can also play and laugh all together. As the technology changes, there appear new and better games, with more difficult story and much more exiting, compared to the first game in the world> Ping- pong of Atari, we can say that games have changed a lot.

TDT


Hi ya again, well in this post I'll give my opinion about this thing that changed the TV communication and improved to a better one.
Well before this change, everybody could see TV without any problems with standard sound and resolution of the screen, but now the small box called TDT , improved a lot the TV resolution and the way to watch TV. It's much better in deed but, don't you think that it could be free and so we don't have to pay for it ? In my opinion I think that this change wasn't necessary, because in few years we'll have to buy again new things to keep watching TV and it will be much better as now. In other words it will help to change our world and keep it with new technology around us. What will come next? Should we depend all the time of the technology ? well, think about it, because everybody has a personal opinion.

Oral presentation : Jamaica



Observation of Presentation:

We included in our presentation a PowerPoint, also sound and images which made more interesting the presentation. They helped in our presentation to show where the things were and the music introduced all to the Jamaican ambient. Our presentation last 9 minutes and half, well that's because we tried to speak slowly and with good pronunciation, so the others could understand us good enough. I tried to make a visual contact with audience and I tried to don't keep reading all the time my notes, well some difficult words , nothing more. I should improve my gesture and body movement. The structure of the presentation was very good , and our introduction to the presentation was a bit bad I think so. As I said before , we tried to include a good explication of each thing , and we included some examples as we were talking. Our language wasn't difficult and I think that we could look to dictionary to make the vocabulary rich and varied. I think I hadn't problems with pronunciation , well with the word " island" , I'll try to change my voice and don't speak too much time monotone. I made breaks while I was talking, to remind what I'm going to talk next. Well I think our presentation wasn't so bad, my mark is 6,5.

Hearing loss

Well well well, this post is going to be about the sound that you can hear while you're getting older, at the beginning of your life you can hear ultrasound waves , and it sounds like beep.. and it's frequency is more less 22000 Hz , we'll I tested it and i can hear very good 19500 Hz somebody can't hear it , also it depends of your ears, if they're good you should hear high freq. When you're adult you only hear 15000 Hz and we can test it at this site > here

Frankenstain

Did somebody asked itself what will happen in the future if the humans body knowledge still goes improving big steps and every second creates some new things, which were impossible before even to think?
Some people are very pleased with this science because it saved their life , and it will save even more lifes thanks to the new technology. Think about to bring back alive your familiar or loved person , don't you think it would be as a perfect life to everybody?
In some cases there were a catastrophes which we don't want to get in our minds and all the fault was of some bad experiment like the Victor did with its creation in the story, all the bad things that happened to our generation were because , the scientists didn't thought about what will happen after they finish the experiment.

Step by step I'm going to conclude my writing saying that the bodies shouldn't be abused too much in experiments, but with a certain moderation we can save more lifes and create a better life to everybody.

Christmas holidays

Well I think so that everybody enjoyed a lot the Christamas holidays, and everybody got lots of gifts. In my culture we celebrate only Christmas evening and the new year day. The 6 on January, day of the kings, it's a very important day in Spain , but we don't celebrate it , it's just a holiday for us. My holidays were good enought, but i could be better. I received some gifts and I liked them, I enjoyed the stay with my friend the year last night, and we made a party, it was cool. The first day of the year i woke up at 2 o'clock AM. Well nothing important excluding this happened. I'm waiting next Christas, I'll go to my country, to celebrate it because I'll be 18 then.
