"YES, WE CAN!"

At the moment this is my favourite quote. These are some words that we can never forget because if we want something we can get it with effort and sweat. I´d like to get a lot of things in the future and I know trhat if I want to get them I have to use my energy and fight for them with effort.

My favorite song in English is "Thanks for the memories", by Fall Out Boys. I have heard this song many times and I really like it x-).

I'm gonna make you bend and break
(It sends you to me without wait)
Say a prayer but let the good times roll
In case God doesn't show
(Let the good times roll, let the good times roll)
And I want these words to make things right
But it's the wrongs that make the words come to life
"Who does he think he is?"
If that's the worst you got
Better put your fingers back to the keys

One night and one more timeThanks for the memories
even though they weren't so great
"He tastes like you only sweeter"
One night, yeah, and one more time
Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories
"He, he tastes like you only sweeter"

Been looking forward to the future
But my eyesight is going bad
And this crystal ball
It's always cloudy except for
When you look into the past (look into the past)
One night stand (one night stand off)


One night and one more time

Thanks for the memories
even though they weren't so great
"He tastes like you only sweeter"
One night, yeah, and one more time
Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories
"He, he tastes like you only sweeter"

They say I only think in the form of crunching numbers
In hotel rooms collecting page six lovers
Get me out of my mind and get you out of those clothes
I'm a liner away from getting you into the mood, whoa
One night and one more time
Thanks for the memories
even though they weren't so great
"He tastes like you only sweeter"
One night, yeah, and one more time
Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories
"He, he tastes like you only sweeter"

One night and one more time (One more night, one more time)
Thanks for the memories
even though they weren't so great
"He tastes like you only sweeter"
One night, yeah, and one more time (One more night, one more time)
Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories
"He, he tastes like you only sweeter"

Argentina

I would go to Argentina for several reasons. I have some members of my family living in

Argentina and I would like to meet them. Argentina is a place that attracts my attention and I like that country. I hope I can go there in the future but the only thing I don´t like is that I will have to spend a long time inside a plane if I want to go there xD.

In Argentina the good thing is that in winter they have snow, but in Mallorca we don´t have (only in the mountains). The only thing that is similiar to both Argentina and Mallorca is the summer weather.

I can see the beauty of this Argentinian city

I can hear the cars and the people

I can smell the "croissants"every morning

I can taste things that I have never tasted

I can feel the perfection...

" An apple a day keeps the doctor away"

At the moment this is my favourite quote and it means that if you eat fruit you will have a good health and you won't have to visit the doctor. I like this quote because I want to be a healthy person and I'm going to start eating fruit.

My favorite song in english is" I don't wanna miss a thing" by Aerosmith

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
Far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Well, every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreamingWondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like thisI just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
'Cause I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna close my eyesI don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep, yeah
I don't wanna miss a thing.

I would like to be at this place because I love the beach. This place is very relaxing because you can hear the sea, you can walk without shoes and feel the sand among your toes. I would like to be there now because it's a place where you can think calmly and it seems a great place to share with your girlfriend and walk beside her.

I can see the sea

I can hear the wind

I can smell the sand

i can taste your lips

I can feel the sun

Writing 3 (by William Wu He)

At the moment my favourite quote is this one: "An eye for an eye makes the world blind". This quote belongs to Gandhi and it makes you think about the dark side of the people and the consequences of these negative features. With this quote I get strength to be a better person and make a better world.

In the second part of the writing I have a problem. I haven't got a song with a special meaning in English because for me it's difficult to understand songs in English, I can only understand the Spanish songs, so I'll post some songs that I like, but they don't have any special meaning.

Gentleman - Superior

If you know not god you know not love, no no if you know not jah, jah is there, oh yes

Chorus:

I know jah lovin is superior the devil complex inferior, oh yes worshiping material bowing to your silver and gold

Sombody tell me, cause I really got to know I read alot of history but things not really show no no why dem drop de bombs ina Arabia why the children burn and suffer ina Africa leave us up the righteous fightin for superpower but judgement ago fall upon de world like real shower me go so then

Chorus (2x)

So betta lov the little youth nah terrorise dem no no no gotta teach the youth de truth nah critize dem no no no open up your eyes 'n realize den you wan fi keep you wan fi care you wan fi guide dem don't you know war and crime will devide dem 'n you betta show the youth your fears 'n don't you hide dem 'n then the quality and justice will unite dem lift up your voice and you got to sing the answer me go so then

Chorus (2x)

Long time we fed upon your promises and lies your illusion and religion just covering your eyes frustration and starvation want your bly depression until well un dry can you show the love man and not the animosity can you liv a live wid me could a be your friend why you want to be my enemy you can't take the dem speech

Chorus (2x)

sombody tell me, cause i really got to know I read alot of history but things not really show no no why dem already ya why the children burn and suffer ina africa leave us up the righteous fightin for superpower but judgement got a fall real shower

Flyleaf - All around me

And to end up, I would like to be 18 years old, to get the drive license and be able to test a super car in a competition circuit. One car like this, a Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4, that accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, with a top speed of 325 km/h feeded by a motor V10 of 5.2l, getting 560 Horse Power. This is my dream, my wet dream!!

I can see a furious bull,

I can hear the roar of the motor,

I can smell the gas,

I can taste the speed sensation,

I can feel my head sinking in the back.

WRITING 3 (Ana Carcaño)

"Life is either a darling adventure or nothing"
means that life is like an adventure, you have to take some risks and decisions to reach what you think is the best for you. If you just live without goals or objectives, life is nothing.

"Happiness does not consist in pastimes and amusements but in virtuous activities" - Aristotle. That quote means that you are not going to reach happiness only having fun with friends and going out, you can also be happy practising and improving in those activities that you are good at.



One of my favourite songs is 'I dont wanna miss a thing' by Aerosmith.
I like it because I have lived very good moments listening to that song. It talks about a boy who loves a girl and wants to be with her forever, he dreams about her, he watches her when she is sleeping and he doesn't want to miss any moment with her. That's why he would stay awake forever so he could see all what she's doing.



Right now I would like to be in Formentera with some friends lying on the beach and sunbathing. I have never been there but I imagine it's a very calm place and with virgin beaches where you can relax and forget about all the problems.



I can see blue water

I can hear the waves

I can smell the fine sand

I can taste the salt

I can feel Formentera

WONDERFUL PRIZES!
(for the first three students with the correct answers)

Shopping, shopping, shopping!

Here we are again! Christmas has just arrived at “El corte Inglés” once more! And we are ready to spend our money on things we don’t really need.
Presents, objects,clothes and perfumes, bags and jewellery, electronic devices, new mobiles and computers... We need them!

But when you grow older you realize that, sometimes, things and objects can become a real burden... At the moment I’m in the process of getting rid of things I don’t really use... Too many CDs, too many books, too many clothes...


I love Japanese classical home decoration... I need emptiness... I need a place with no images, a white wall... an empty space in my living room, to dance, to rest, to get some refreshing air for my soul...


Xmas is here again! What can we do?


“If you understand, things are just as they are
If you don’t understand, things are just as they are”

This is my inspirational quote at this stage of my life.



When I was a teenager I wanted to train my body (sports, martials arts and so on). I loved Aikido and Taichi (I learnt to be really fast and flexible with the former, and to be calm and relaxed when facing a problem with the latter )

















In my youth years I started training my emotions. Difficult task! We are full of contradictions: love and hate, joy and fear, activity and laziness. Sometimes it seems that the opposite forces can make your boat sink... I gave up martial arts and I started dancing...to express my emotions... we are like waves... going up and down, up and down restlessly...


And then it came a time when I started training my mind. And I was lucky to see a beautiful lighthouse in the distance and ... I followed the light...



I am a really curious person and I want to understand things at a deeper level, life and death, purpose of life, and so on...
And one day I realized I couldn’t understand everthing using just my mind.



“If you understand, things are just as they are
If you don’t understand, things are just as they are”

You cannot measure the water of the ocean using a tiny bucket (our individual minds). So why are we wasting our time instead of enjoying the beauty of the sea??

JOBS(by Susana Chen)

My parents were both born in China.My father has been living in Spain for 21 years,my mother has been living Spain since 1990.Now,my parents have a restaurant in Magalluf,my father is a chef and my mother is a waitress.My father doesn't work,he only cooks when the restaurant is very busy.

My granfather on my mum's side was a Maths teacher in a primary school. I don't know what is the job of my granmother,because I almost never see her and my mum doesn't tell me about things like this. I don't know where I liked to work when I was little,because nobody asked me about where I'd like to work in the future. I think eighty per cent of girls,wanted to be teachers,actresses or singers when they were little and eighty per cent of boys wanted to be policemen or firefighters.

I think,I am really hard-working. I almost always do the homework for all the subjects,but sometimes I am lazy,I don't want to do my homework and study for the exams,but I will still do it...
I am very calm,if I have some urgent problem,I am always calm.In my opinion,it is good,because when you are nervous,you can't solve the problem.The negative side of my personality is that I am a careless person and I am very shy. At maths tests,I never get 10 points,because I am very careless,I always get 8,9points for small failures. I am a strong-minded person.I think it is a good thing, I want to do things and I don't mind about people's opinion.

My dream is to help people design their hair,clothes....I would like to work in China or New York,I would like to work in New York,because it is a fashionable city.
10 years later,I think I will have just finished my degree in architecture.I will be looking for work in Spain,I don't care about high wages or low wages,because I think I don't need a lot of money.The only thing I need is experience.
