Living with a disability

My name is Carmen and I have been deaf since I was four years old. I started to loose audibility, so my parents were worried and they decided to take me to the hospital. The doctor told me in some months Í wouldn't hear anything unless I'd wear a hearing aid in my ears.
Life is a bit different for me because I have to be very careful and buy special headphones, for example.
I know living with a disability is not good, but you always have to look for the reight side: everything could be worst! I can have and ordinary life, and that means a lot for me. I have many friends and my family who always support me. 
I just want people with disabilities to know that they can do whatever they intend to and there are nor problems, only solutions!

Abroad, the musical

In this musical, we saw young people who travel to Liverpool looking for a job because of the difficul situation there is in Spain. When one of the characters, Marta, finds a job relationated with sea trade, she goes to the place they told her. Once she is there, the boss tells her she has to stay with a bag waiting until a boat appears. That is when a friend of her comes in and Marta begs Macarena if she can keep the bag for a minute because she has to put a solution with his boyfriend, who has planned to come back to Spain. While Macarena is waiting, the police arrive, they gave arested her because of drugs trafficking! None of her friends knew!

Finally, Marta, her boyfriends and three more young spanish people make that Macarena goes out of the jail; working as a team is always the best option!

The theatre had emotion, laugh and many other elements. Also, a lot of song appear while the scenes are being representated - characters have amazing voices!

Characters:

- Marta: she is one of the main characters and she has an amazing voice! Since she was a child, she has gotten a good education. She can speak english well. Marta is very interested in finf a job, that is why she is in Liverpool. Also, she is fun and funny. Physically, she has curly brown hair, she is tall and wears cool clothes.

- José: he is Marta's boyfriend. He went to Liverpool with optimism but, when two months have passed and he has not found a job, he starts to loose calm.

As Marta, he can sing, but he can't speak english as she does, for him it is very difficult! He has dark ayes and brown hair.

- Macarena: she is from Seville. Her situation is not easy - her father abandoned the family a month before she was born. She does not know a lot of english. Macarena always says: ''palabrita del niño Jesús''. She is a good person. Her hair is blonde and she is not very tall.

- Lucía: she is a high-class girl, her dad earns lots of money! She loves clothes, shopping and talking. You will always see her with her mobile. Lucía is a fashion girl. She is also spanish, but she doesn´t look she is looking for a job.

- Waiter: he is spanish. Lucía always goes to the café where he works and she is alway demanding him many things, so he is not a really good friend of her. He is sad because he can't find a jpb related with the universitary degree he has.

- Matthew: we only know he is spanish at the end of the mudivsl. He probably is the father of Macarena. He went to Liverpool because he was nervous about the situation he lived, so he changed his identity and did not go back never - he regrets about it a lot.

Personal opinion:

I loved the musical because of many reasons: there were music, lots of effects, a good background and the characters spoke english and spanish.

It was realistic, but they mixed funny stuff, making  a good theatre for teenagers.

My favourite character was Marta, because her voice sounded amazing! Also, she was positive and she had a lot of illusions and dreams to reach!

In addition, I was seated in the front row - it is nice to see perfectly what is happening!

I would like to have more days like this one!

Women's Rights

This essay talks about women rights, because, in the past, they didn't have the right to vote, for example. 

Some of them were really upset, so un the 19th century, a british women called Christabel, with the help of her daughter, wanted to change this. 

They founded a group and many people joined in it: they  fought for their goal: have the same rights as men.

They showed they could do anything, when in the First World War, women worked in men's job because they were fighting in wars.

Years later, women recieved the right to vote in several countries.

Women are getting many advances all around the world so, one day there will be equality between men and women in the whole world.

The story of my life

I was born in Málaga on 21st July 1998. I have always lived in the same place and house, but I really like it.

My earliest memories are all with my parents and my sister. They have maden me laugh and thanks to them my childhood has been very nice. In summer, we always went to and Anfalucian city with coast and there we had always fun, because we stayed in the beach, we walked around the most beautiful streets, etc...

When I was younger, I had a nanny because my parents had to work in the mornings. She took care of me and my sister and she was (well, she is) a really good person and very sweet. She took me to chool and in the summer, when I hadn't classes, we played together. She is an important person to me, and although now she isn't my nanny, we still keep in touch.

My first friends was Ana. We live in the same building, so seeing eachother is easy. Then, I met elena and Luisa, and, when I come to highschool years later, I started to talk more and more with Celia. Now, we are almost always together, they are excellent persons, faithful gorls, etc. I wouldn'y change them for anything in this world!

Now, I am studying at Fernando de los Ríos Highschool sciences. I don't know what i am going to study at the university, but I know I will go, because I want to have a career. I also want to learn english as I know spanish, and frech.

I can't imagine my future as I couldn't imagine when I was at school me writing this now; I remeber when once my cousin, which was studying in France, told me that she will come back when I was 12, and I though: At that age I will be very old!

One of my objectives in life is to be happy! And, when I will be at the University, I would like to stay in Málaga, because I don't want to go out without my family, they mean so much for me! Although, go abroud for one month more or les will be nice to learn languages!

Competition in Norway

Good morning. My name is Carmen, and I am from Málaga, a city from Spain. I have come here because I'd like to participe in the Dance Competition 2013.

I really love dance, and, since I was a child I have always been dancing. 
I love all types of music, they make me want to dance.
At he age of 3, my parents suscribed me to a dance academy. There, I learnt a lot and my love for dancing appeared. Three years later, I realised that I wanted more hours of classes; my body ordered me to move! So I decided to change my dance academy for the Proffesional Dance Academy from Málaga.

I continue in this academy, and I have been in many competitions all around the world; I have been in Paris twice, London, Argentina, Sweden and last month in Japan. Also, I have won some awards.

Dancing is my entire life, and my dream has always been to be a recognised dancer. If I enter in this international competition. I will be closer to make my dream comes true.
My goal is not winning the Dance Competition 2013, even though it would be really nice. I just want to live the moment while I am dancing on the dance floor.
If I am not the nomber one, Im am not going to think I have lost, because just for the fact to be here is a victory. I will be smiling and saying: How far I have come! bacause neither in my best dreams this would happen.

Writing

This was the dramtic scene that the city of Málaga, on the South of Spain, lived last Friday.
The accident began at 8:00 hours in the mornig, when the sun was just rising.
A business man was going to his job by car, when he realised he had forgotten his glasses in his house, but he decided not to return to his flat because he could get late to work. What he didin't know is that there would be a big hole in the road that he couldn't see without glasses.
At first, the car driver tought that the hole was just a puddle on the road, but he was wrong, and, when he realised it was a hole, he couldn't  stop quickly enough.
For some few minutes, the car driver was trapped inside it, but a girl saw him and quickly call the police men, that rescue the car driver.
This bad moment ended well for all the characters of the story, because the car driver wasn't injured and he didn't lost any points of his car license because, although he wasn't with his glasses. there wasn't any poster which advised about the dangerous hole. Also, the girl got a job working as a model in a very famous shop, the one that the car driver own. He gave the opportunity to the girl because he was very thankful of her.

Advantages and disadvantages of mobiles, the Internet and social networks

Social networks, mobiles and the Internet are different things, but with all them we can be communicated with other people all around the world, fast and cheap, which is a very big advantage.
But, are everything advantages? The answer is 'no'. Sometimes they can be dangerous. If you don't know the use of a social network, it can be open for everyone. The Internet has so many games that people can become addicted to it. Also, many teens spent a lot of money and time on chatting with their mobiles.
Although, if you know how to use the Internet, mobile and social networks, it will be nice: you will obtain information very quickly, chat with friends, etc.

How do you sleep

I usually sleep in the freefaller position. Many people say that if you sleep from this way, it means that you are a person that responded badly to criticism and outward confidence. You sleep in a freefaller position when your flat is on your stomach.
Sometimes, I also sleep in fetal positions, which means i am a quick to relax person, tough on the outside and sensitive at heart. This position consist of be curled up in a ball.

Last year, there was a beautiful day, so my friends and I decided to go for a walk. I was skating with my friends when suddenly we saw a puppy. He was very cute and beautiful, his hair was brown and white, but he was very dirty.

We stopped when we realized that the dog was abandoned, poor dog! We were sure that he was really hungry so we decided collect money to buy dog food and a bottle of water for the puppy. 

When we gave to the puppy the food he started to eat very fast. He was very grateful!

Then, we decided to call a humane society. Now, the dog has a really good family who loves him, also, the house were he lives has a really big garden and he is always playing.  Sometimes we visit him and we gets really happy!

We are very content because we know we have change the life of this little animal!

Tips for a healthy life style

WE ARE WHAT WE EAT

-The food pyramid and the nutrients and portions we should have

The food pyramid shows us the quantity of food we should have. Below, we can see the bread, the creals, rice and pasta group, we all sould have between six and eleven servings . Upon it, it is the group of vegetables and fruits, we should have five pieces every day. Then, it is the milk, yoghurt and cheese group, and next to it, the meat, aggs and fish group. At the top of the pyramid we can see the fats, oils and candies; we can eat sometimes, but remember, not everyday.

-The food we shoulld avoid

The amount of calories we should eat everyday is between 2.000 and 2.200. Calories give to our body the energy and nutrients necessary for each day. There is a type of calories called 'empty calories' this calorie have sugar and fat, but any nutrients, so it is not good for our body, because it doesn't provides nutrients. 

When you eat more calories than the required, it goes to your stomach, and they accumulates, making us fatter.

-The importance of sport in a healthy life

The sport is really important for a healthy life. It reduces the probability of diseases, the muscles and the bones will be better, it reduces the extres, etc... Three hours at a week is good. Find out the sport you like, you can play tennis, go running with a friend, play basketball, etc... Then, have a showe, you will be really relaxed.

-Eating disorders.

Don't be obsessed with your weight! It's alright you want to be thin, but you can't always watch your weight or think about calories!

Anorexia, for example, is a desease which makes people don't want to eat, and they think they are too fat and sometimes, you can die because the lack of calories and nutrients. 

Remember, you should have a healthy diet and do sport, but sometimes, it is alright have a pizza or some cookies.
