Health (By Diego Rosso)

My name is Diego Rosso Broyad, I'm seventeen years old (turning eighteen soon!) and right now I'm studying 12th grade (and then college!). I was born on 24th of January in 1992 in Majorca. About my hobbies, I love playing videogames (currently playing CoD 6), going out with friends, going to the cinema (a bit expensive lately), reading manga and sleeping! (I also like going to the beach in summer).

In my opinion health is not only important for me, health should be important for everyone. The trick to be a healthy person is to eat everything(vegetables, meat, fish, cereals...) in small amounts or one food everyday.

When I was young I used to play football but at the moment I trying to go to the gym or sometimes I go to swim. The "coolest" sport I find to watch is rugby but I hardly ever watch sports on TV now (I hardly ever watch TV now).

If you ask me about a healthy diet, yes I've got a healthy diet (not the healthiest in the world because it would be too boring but I can't regret) and that's thanks to my mother, if it wasn't for my mother I would be fat like a cow because I love food.

Personally I love pasta but I usually have sandwiches to eat ( easy and fast). I only eat fast food when I go to the cinema or when I'm out with friends and we are hungry.

I drink alcohol when I go out at night with friends or sometimes in bestfriend's houses.

I don't smoke and don't plan to do it. I feel sorry for the people who drink too much and the people who smoke, they are doing a lot of damage to their bodies and get bad opinions as well.

As far as I'm concerned, I don't know why people keeps smoking, I still haven't found a good reason to do it and I'm sure I won't find one.

P.S: At least I could find some free time to write this again =)P

I want a positive mark for this teacher =P

Health (Lina Quiroga)

My name is Lina Quiroga, my birthday is on 30th of December and I was born in Colombia.

Well, for me, to talk about health means talking about having a good lifestyle, don't feel any pains in your body, eat regularly and feel good with your life and yourself.

Obviously, to carry out all this, you must eat the three meals of a day, which are breaksfast, lunch and dinner, and avoid fast food or anything that could contain much fat or sugar.

If I have to talk about my example, I should say that I'm not really healthy, because I don't usually eat those three meals at their corresponding hours. I always eat when I'm hungry and whatever I find to eat.

I think health is important, and to do some exercise too.

I don't play any sport, but I would like to. When I was in my country, I was in a basketball team and I loved it. Actually basketball is my favourite sport. I think that comes from my mum, because she used to play it too.

And talking about diet, as I said, I eat when I'm hungry and I don't follow any diet. When I'm at home, I eat my mum's food, which is more Colombian than Spanish, but sometimes, at weekends, my dad cooks and his food is more like a mix of flavours.

And focusing on types of food that people eat in different countries, I would like to show you two dishes that have caught my attention.

In Alaska for example:

There is a dish called:"Oogruk flippers and fresh whale blubber". They put the flippers in the fresh blubber and leave them for two weeks, then they get the loose skin of the flippers out and then they eat the meat that's left.
(the oogruk is a kind of walrus).

And in Guatemala, there's a dish called: "Cockerel in chicha".
(chicha is a type of drink that contains corn and alcohol)

However I don't need to go so far away to find weird food, because when we go to Colombia, my dad usually buys and then eats roasted ants. I've never tasted them because I think they're disgusting, but he says that they taste like peanuts.

HEALTH(by Susana Chen)

My name is Jinlan Chen,and I have a Spanish name too,my Spanish name is Susana .I'm 17 years old,I think I'm very old,my birthday is on 27th of July.I was born in Salamanca,but I went to China when I was 2 years old.I was in China until 12 years old.I wanted go to the place where I was born born, because every body said that it's a very beatiful town.
My hobbies are listening to music and reading Chinese books.

Health is important in my life, I think health is important for every body because if you are unhealthy you can't do anything.In my opinion it is important to be a healthy person.

First you have to eat healthy food.For example:grapes.A lot of people don't eat the skin and the seeds,this isn't good,because the skin has a lot of vitamins and the seeds are good for the heart.To eat more vegetables and more fruits is good for your health.

The second thing is daily exercise,every day you should run five or ten minutes.I think I am an unhealthy person,because I don't do any exercise and I don't eat three meals a day.I always eat two meals a day,luch and dinner.I never eat breakfast,because I'm lazy,I don't want to get up early. But I follow a healthy diet. I don't eat fast food,I eat a lot of vegetables,fruits and shellfish and it also contain a lot of protein,multi-vitamins,calcium,which we need to maintain every part of our bodies.

My food preferences are Chinese, I like nearly all type of food.Specially spicy,I've started eating spicy food since I was 6 years old. I'm really love the typical vegetarian restaurants in Shanghai.The dishes have beautiful names. The food looks like fish,chicken,duck,beef...but all the food is made of vegetables.It's really nice!

I usually eat white rice with chinese vegetables,tofu,meat...and I sometimes eat chinese buffet,my parents have a restaurant,so I can eat there when I want to.I always drink water,because water is better than soft drinks and it's necessary to drink 2 litres of water every day. I never drink alcohol at weekends and I never smoke.I only drink alcohol when I go to parties. Drinking lots of alcohol is very bad for your health,but if you drink a glass of wine every day you won't have problems in your heart.

THE IMPORTANCE OF EATING FRUIT EVERY DAY.

Hi, I'm Carol. I'm going to write about the importance of eating fruit.

I think everybody should include fruits in their daily diet. Fruit is one of the healthiest foods, but it seems like we don't really know it. In my opinion parents should force their children to eat more fruit, because every day children eat more sugar and chocolate and less healthy food. Nowadays children are used to eat fast food in places such as McDonalds or Burguer King, and that's not good for their health. Kids are becoming fatter every day

HEALTH (by Ana Carcaño)

My name is Ana and I was born in Palma on 9th of January 1992, I am 17 years old. In my free time I like going out with my friends or my boyfriend. I also like to practise some sport and going shopping.

I think that health is something very important in life. If you are unhealthy when you are young it will be worse when you're older!
To be a healthy person I like to eat a bit of all sorts of food but sometimes it's difficult for me because I dont like fruits and vegetables very much. I try not to eat a lot of sweets or fats. To keep fit I like to go to the gym and I like cycling too. In summer I love water sports such as sailing, kayaking and swimming in the sea.(For me swimming in a pool is boring)

I try to have a healthy diet but as I said before, it's difficult for me because I am very limited. My favourite food is pasta and what I dislike the most are tomatoes, I hate them!
I dont like eating in fast food restaurants because, in my opinion, food there looks like plastic. I eat i fast food restaurants very few times a year, and not because I want to but because my friends want to go there.

Health (by Willy Wu-He) I'm the first, oh yes, man!

My name's William Wu He and i'm 17 years old. I was born in Mallorca, on 24th of september 1992. I've got one brother, he's younger than me, he's nine years old.

I think that health is very important in my life. When I was younger, I was very fat, I didn't like that and I decided to change it.
I started to play sports, like tennis, and eat more healthy food and in less quantities. This "diet" was succesful and in a few months I lost a lot of weight. At the moment I don't play tennis, now i go to gym. I go to there four times a week. It's so hardcore baby!
I like watching footbal, "the king sport". I support Footbal Club Barcelona, the best team of the european scene in the last season, so Madrid supporters suck!
I like golf too, I like Tiger Woods so much, he's so sexy! When he takes the position to hit the ball I get so excited!

I think that to have a healthy diet is very important to be a healthy person. In my diet, there are a lot of things, I'm a person who likes to eat everything, well not everything... I only eat FOOD.
I eat vegetables, fish... but like everybody, I love fast food, it's unhealthy, but it tastes so good that you can't resist, like a huge and delicious... sausage!
I always drink water but on weekends you can find some alcohol running throught my veins. I think that drinking alcohol and smoking is a very big piece of shit, it's unhealthy, but if a person drinks and smokes a little bit, it's not bad. If a person does that all the day and for a long time, that person has a problem. These things are like all the thingsin life, you can do them, but with some moderation, if you abuse you'll get into trouble!!
