This piece of news talks about the design of a new future flying car called TF-X. The future TF-X will be the dream of many people, get fly with a simple car.

According to the TF-X design can take off and land like a helicopter, so it will be very handy. It is also very safe on security the safety issue, take several electric motors and fuel so in the case that one would not be a problem vary.

From my point of view, this is very interesting because I’m one of those guys who has always dreamed to fly with a simple car. I agree very well what the news says that the technology is already advanced enough to make this real. I hope that very soon, you can see cars flying!

Hand, foot and mouth disease: First vaccine

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-22689593

It’s an illness that comes out in a form of hand blisters and very painful in extreme cases can give cerebral infections which are fatal.

But investigation groups in the Jangse and Beijind provinces have found a solution to this problem. This solution doesn’t cure the problem but thanks to this solution the ill people can avoid been taken to hospitals.

My opinion about this new is good news to see the evolution of medicine for everyone’s well being. 

Pirates of the caribbean

Pirates of the Caribbean is one of my favourite movies. I like movies with action and intrigue and this is it.

 This movie like the title says is about pirates, particularly the story of a pirate, Jack Sparrow. As long as the story is told Jack Sparrow build an army to go and find his ship, which had been stolen by Captain Barbosa. Barbosa not only stoles the boat, also kidnapped a girl (the daughter of the governor) who was kidnapped at the same time as the boat.

 This is why Jack Sparrow has the support of the entire Royal Family and because of this his ship gets back and the royal family get back their daughter Elizabeth. It’s because of this, that Jack Sparrow has the whole support of Elizabeth’s family. 

From my point of view, it’s an interesting film. As the story evolves around are fascinating scenes images ... This is an excellent film which I would recommend to everyone.

A formative cycle in Castelló

The next year in Castelló start a new formative cycle about boat buildings. I think this is a very interesting thing. 

This is a good cycle in my opinion because there are very few people who like to learn this trade. Besides there are work to repear boats because there are a lot of boats which don't works. 

For me this is a good job because in Empuriabrava there are a lot of boats, and I think Empuriabravas has a great future because there are many people with money who will provide mor work. 

In conclusion for me this is a very interesting cycle and if I don't go into unverity to take a degree maybe I would like to do it. 

My life!

Today I decided to write about one of the most important people in my life. A person who for about a year has never been away from me, and I've always been supported by her. Today I will write about an UGLY girl, I'll write about Alba.

She's the one who is always there when I need her and even when things go wrong she's always there. It's with whom I share my every day and with whom I share everythin. She always cheers me up when I'm a little sad, help me whenever possible, doing everything she can for me to be happy.

I love his way of taking life always with a smile, whe's always calm and takes things easy which really pleases me above all the way she overcomes any problem.

I could spend years talking about her because she has a thousand qualities which I love. Anyway Alba, I want you to know that you're the best.

Traffic accidents

Day after day there are more traffic accidents...

For me, it's a terrible thing but it's the sad reality because everyday I see more accidents, more news about accidents and I heard everyday more people dying because of traffic accidents...

I have to take the motorbike everyday and all this news about people injured on the roads makes me think about going on my bike too often. I think I'm a pacific driver because almost never have come near an accident.

Sometimes I'm in a urry and I drive a little fast. I don't like it because I'm conciencious of the danger but, in conclusion, I think that I'm a safe driver. 

Alicante!

Alicante has been my last trip. but it was not exactly a trip, I went to compete and nothing turned out to be as I expected...

I enjoyed my stay there, but it wasn't good as I expected because the coaching team demanded more dischipline which I didn't exect. The trip was good, overall I has very funny moments, moments of celebration that I will never forget. I also lived many moments of laughter and silliness with all the team and I can't say that i did't have a good time miss something, as the hotel was spectacular and we had buffet every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner... Obviously all this luxury buffet was controlled by the coaching team for which, from my point of view this lost many points...

All in all, this has been an experience that I will never forget, as it will be very difficult to repeat another experience like that.

City or town?

Today I will write about where I would prefer to live in the future. Would be better the city or the town?

I think that I would prefer to live in a town because the people are different as the city. People are more sociable and they like stay with you for do anything. When you are in a street, everybody said hello and that’s, from my point of view it’s a very beautiful thing. Besides the calm that you find in a town you can't find anywhere…you can leave anything on the street and you know it, will be there when you go back, and this was absolutely amazing.

On the other hand, the city is very different for me...I see it all negative, people are not sociable you don't know more than half of them and the few who know you rarely find them. You can't leave anything on the street without being touched. Everything is very different in the town...

All in all, the confidence that transmits a village is what makes me prefer a village to a city...

Story; The unforgetable mechanic

Our story takes place in a family who lives in Barcelona. One day, when the family goes to the supermarket by car. The car stops working suddenly and they decide to ring upthe mechanic.

In the same moment that the mechanic arrives where the family stays, the family’s cat gets off the car and the mechanic runs over him. Luckily, the cat is only hurt, however the mechanic has to take up something to mend the car so the family can go to the veterinary. In the meantime, the familylooks after the cat that complains a lot. By surprise, the mechanic makes upsomething to mend the car and he works it out.

In the end, the family turns on the car and then the father, who drives, speeds up to take the cat to the veterinary.

BARRAQUES

Barraques it's a tradicional feast which is celebrated in Figueres every year. 

In spain there is a tradition to celebrate the feast of the village in honour to the patron saint. In Figueres there is one of the biggest and they have a special place only for the fun-fair and the musical groups this place is called Barraques and goes on from around ten o'clock until five or six in the morning. 

Barraques consists to a big party in the middle of Figueres. In this event participate a lot of different musical groups and the people of the city love it. The people who live near Figueres they all go to this feast. 

This is an enjoyable event because you meet many friends some of them you haven't seen for a long time. 

In my opinion it's one of the parties that I like best because, a big part of my friend go and it's free. On the other hand it also have negative things, there are a lot of robbaries and differents incidents...

CASTELLÓ D'EMPÚRIES

I decided to describe my village because I think the village where I live is a very beautiful place and I can write a lot about Castelló because I have been living there for sixteen years.

This village is a region of Alt Empordà. Castelló has a big urbanization which has more inhabitants than the village, Empuriabrava. In Empuriabrava there are approximately eight thousand inhabitants, double than Castelló. But Castelló and Empuriabrava united are one village, approximately twelve thousand inhabitants. 

This village has a lot of beautiful places, for example the Basiclica (Santa Maria), the medieval prison, the museum Farinera, the biggest wind tunnel in Europe, an airport with the biggest parachute jumping in the world...

In conclusion Castelló is a nice village, the order of the streets, the shape of the streets, the structure of our houses, good people and I think you would have to go a long way to find anywhere like here.

Tourist interview

Now, I will explain my interview with an Englisht girl. I did this inteview in front of the Dali museum.

She said me: Now I'm stay in Barcelona but I went to Figueres because I will visit a Dali museum, but she lives in Bielorusia. She stay in holidays here and she said a good time? of cours jajajja. She choose catalonia for this holidays because she never visit Barcelona, because are a lot of differents interesting places and because the people are so friendly. She staying in apartament of Barcelona. She staying for four days. She doesn't speak spanish or catalan, she think that the people of Catalonia speak good English. She would return to Barcelona, She said of course.

This year

This year I have done my fourth year of ESO and I had a good year in general. It was a calm  year, I haven't had many problems to pass all the subjects. Now I thiknk this year was a good year because I passed all the exams but I think that if I had worked better I would have  had better mark.

This year I enjoyed very much the people of my class because are my clasmates and fantastic people and we had a lot together. 

Now that has gone what I really have to do is to prepare myself better for next year. 

Friendships

A have a lot of friend but now I explain how a good friend should:

For me a good friend is who when you find youselves lost in the dark and you can see, one good friend helps you in this ocasion.IS one person that if you have a problem you can count on he or she. It's a one person who knows when I'm in need it I can always count on them. Is a one person he is always ready to lend your a shoulder to cry on, is a person who will never let go and will never say GOODBYE. 

I'm looking for a job

Now I'm looking for a job for Summer because I want to do a lot of things but I don't have money, and that's why I'm looking for a job. 

The problem is that with the crisis it's very difficult to find anything for my age.

I knew it would be difficult and for this reason I went to take the exam of first aid. And with this I can work on the beaches, as a watchman in case anybody needed help. or I could also work in suimming pools.

But I amb still looking for any kind of job. 

Book versus film

The main difference was that in the film the seeting takes place at present as in the book is in the Middle Ages.

Another difference would be the way they dress, in the book they wear a clothes to Middle Ages and on the film they wear a clother of our time.

Another diference is that in the book the fights happens in the beautiful city of Verona and in the film happens in the street or in buildings.

I think the film with the book are completely contrasting the decorates, but the history was the same.

What's does my motorbike mean to me?

When I had my motorbike I remember that I was very happy. Because for me had a radical style to live.
Since I have motorbike I feel absolutly free, I go where I want, because I don't have to depend on anybody.
I think that my parents like that because I think never bother to take me everywhere.
I am so happy with my motorbike aand I think that has marced my style in live.
