EXHILARATING VIDEO POSTED BY MARTA RUDA AND ISA MOYA

IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING

Come on. Some people think that there aren't reasons to live, when all is

 black. But, there are people, that when all is black, see a lot of reasons
 for a smile. An example, is this man. He hasn't got any legs or arms. His life,
 looks terrible, but, He thinks that when you fall down, you must get up.
 For him, life without legs or arms is not a problem, he says that he is happy,
 he loves life...

 He appears in the Film ''The butterfly Circus''. This film, teaches us, that
 If you want something, but is difficult to have it, you should try and try and get it. Look this video!

AWE-INSPIRING BLOG ENTRY POSTED BY ÁNGELA BONILLA

Bully victim: Casey Heynes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uO2bu8_R1KY
A boy called Casey Heynes was a victim of bully, he had always been the target of beatings, and he was disturbed and tormented by a little boy; Richard Gale. This was in 2011, in NSW Sydney School. He was only a child, he couldn’t do anything or he didn’t have the strength to do something, but one day, when Richard hit him, he blew up and said stop. He didn’t have friends, because his 8 friends left him to his fate and he defended himself alone. His father didn’t know how he felt; his father didn’t know that his son was a bully victim, but his sister helped him and she made sure that her brother came to school well. He said that he couldn’t stand more time; she thinks that he did well and he wasn’t sorry about his reaction. Thousands of people saw that video and they were supporting Casey, he didn’t have friends, but now, he has thousands.
I think that Casey had a very good reaction, because he would always shut up, stay still and was beaten, and he finally reacted. The other boy, Richard, was a little fool encouraged by his friends stick to the other and this was his punishment. I want to say to all the people who are bullied and are abused now:
Please, react, you have all the support of the people around you, you have the strength, you are brave, you deserve to have a quiet life, you can, I know and you know too. I believe in each and every one of you.

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF, YOU CAN STOP THIS, I KNOW!

IMAGINARY (FORTUNATELY!) ACCOUNT OF A SCHOOL TRIP TO PARIS BY BORJA HERRERA. By the way, Borja, we'd better have a serious talk.


My class and I have gone to Paris last week with our english teacher Juan Montes. I have never thought that it was going to be the craziest weekend of my life.

 Firstly, we have gone to the Avenue des Champs-Élysées and we had a picnic. It´s a lovely and crowded place. Suddenly a policeman told us that we couldn´t be on the grass. Juan began to insult him but the policeman said that he was English and then we ran out.

 Next, we have gone to the Eiffel Tower. We have seen all Paris, I was really excited, as a result off that Juan has fear of heights, so he didn´t go up. Lucia threw a gob and fell on Juan´s bald patch. I have never laughed so much.

 Then also we took a taxi, I could have gone with other partners but I went with Juan, it was the worst idea. We arrived at unknown place and we lost all, even the shoes.

 Finally, in the hotel, we had a party. Juan was sleeping when a partner jump to the top of wardrobe and broke a bed.  Juan came and the police too. He has been arrested and he was all the night shouting “I didn´t do anything”.

  It was a crazy travel and the most funniest that I have done. I hope that I´ll do a travel with Juan again.

APPEALING ESSAY BY MICAELA RISTEA


Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies. Groucho Marx 




Micaela Daniela Ristea 2ºY


Who is to blame for the crisis?


Nowadays, the entire planet is experiencing a financial crisis. Some countries are worse off than others and have been forced to make cuts across all sectors. But the question we all ask is: who is to blame for it? Personally, I believe citizens who work hard in order to earn money aren't responsible for what is happening in our country however the main culprits are the politicians.


One reason is that politicians are cheating us because they say that everything is ok and many times they are lying to us. For example, when the crisis started they hadn't told us what was the trouble and now it is too late so as to fix it.

Another reason is that inside the government lots of money, which may be used in favor of citizens to prevent famine or reduce unemployment, is lost in politicians' salaries. Moreover, I am sure that there are too many politicians who earn money by doing nothing.

All in all, politicians might be important for the country if they are good leading us but if they are not, the result is a big financial crisis all over the world which is mostly afecting workers and citiziens. For these reasons it is clear that this situation should change soon.
