Chuuuuuck Norrisssss

Carlos Ray "Chuck" Norris was born March 10, 1940 is an American martial artist and actor. After serving in the United States Air Force, he began his rise to fame as a martial artist and has since founded his own school, Chun Kuk Do.
Norris appeared in a number of action films, such as Way of the Dragon in which he fighted to Bruce Lee and was The Cannon Group's leading star in the 1980s.
I see all his films, is an incredible actor. His films are very famous and he had a lot of jokes like:
"The Murphy's law says that the toast always falls butter side the Chuck Norris dare not to fall"
Its a exelent joke, but only who knows who is Chuck can understand the joke.

It's named Walker, Texas Ranger.
Norris created the martial art Chun Kuk Do. Do includes a code of honor and rules to live by. These rules are from Chuck Norris's personal code. They are:

I will develop myself to the maximum of my potential in all ways.
I will forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements.
I will continually work at developing love, happiness and loyalty in my family.
I will look for the good in all people and make them feel worthwhile.
If I have nothing good to say about a person, I will say nothing.
I will always be as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own.
I will maintain an attitude of open-mindedness.
I will maintain respect for those in authority and demonstrate this respect at all times. I will always remain loyal to my God, my country, family and my friends.
I will remain highly goal-oriented throughout my life because that positive attitude helps my family, my country and myself.

My favorite drink: Coca-Cola

My favorite drink is the Coca Cola, it's an especial drink.
Coca-Cola is a carbonated soft drink. The prototype Coca-Cola recipe was formulated at the Eagle Drug and Chemical Company.Originally intended as a patent medicine when it was invented in the late 19th century by John Pemberton, Coca-Cola was bought out by businessman Asa Griggs Candler.
Its ingredients are:


Carbonated water .
Sugar (sucrose or high-fructose corn syrup).
Caffeine.
Phosphoric acid v. Caramel (E150d).
Natural flavorings.

I think that Coca-Cola is water, but for me, I'd like that all the poor children have their Coca-Cola. There are a lot of reasons because I like Coca-Cola, but the most important is that it has an unique tast.

How did you meet your best friend?

Well, now I don't have best friend, but I'm going to write where and when I meet my friends.

My first friend is Julia, I met she in the Nursery of CEIP Ruiz Amado when I was one year or less. After that I go to P1, P2 P3 P4 P5, in this years 2-6 more or less, I met a lot of new friends, friends that are in the IES an others that left Castello a lot of years ago.
When I started the Primary School I went to the B class, all my years on the CEIP Ruiz Amado, I stayed in the B, in the class there were, Nuria, Oliver, Julia, an more. These years we didn't relacionate with the students of the A class, Andrea,Cristina.... and the C Class, Maria, Emma....
When we started the High School I went to the class B too, but in the class there were Maria, Cristina, Oliver... . The people who did "Alternatius" went to Belgum because our teacher wants. Last year for rememorate the frist year we went to London.

The years pass and I'm here in the forth of ESO.

The future of Books.

Hello, You're going to read the new task. Books
My opinion about the books is simple but long. I don't think that books will disapear, we have got 20 centuies of books and all the information can't be saved in the internet. The experts says that in 2050 the world finished, the IP's of internet will sold out. The book it's an easy an comfortable form to learn, study, read and enjoy. You can read it in any places with out any conections.
The internet will disapear in few years, it 'll be a think better than it.
In the internet there are a lot of false and stupid things that all the sillys in the world can modificate.
If we continue with that type of education we'll become stupids.
All the teenagers are all the day in the computer, mobil phone or other things with internet.

It's only an opinion

Italy best picture


Well, This is a photo of me in Italy. In the Firenze's duomo, I was in the top of the duomo looking the monuments and the buildings.
When we were uping the duomo I was counting the steps and there are 565, a lot of friends are claustrofobics and they don't up.
There are a lot beautifull builds around the duomo.
The duomo is an incredible "church" where the cristans go to preg.
It was built in XIII was designed by Arnolfo di Cambio and approved by city council in 1294. Arnolfo di Cambio was also architect of the church of Santa Croce and the Palazzo Vecccio.
The Gothic interior is vast and gives a big impression. The relative bareness of the church corresponds with the religious life.
The duom is 114 m high and for built it they had to put 37000 tons of material

My opinion about the Blogs.

Well, that's an opinion about the english blogs.
I want that the teachers reflect about this part of the note. All the course I wasn't agree with the english blog, I think that when we use a blog for learn english that it's null, when the teachers (you) see the blog, the note is diferent if the presentation it's normal or if the presentation is exelent. I think that for evaluate your english , the presentation isn't important .The name of the class is English, not Presentation, I think that the presentation don't have to be a note.
( isn't an example of me). You can be a very good student but the presentation is normal or bad your note is low than a person who is a normal student an he has a good persentation. This last person always has the same or high note than you.
This text is the same for the others class.
If you have playing basketball for seven years, and you are at a good league, you can't aprove Pysical Education of basketball with an 6 or 7.
Thats imposible and in this personal opinion I want to express that.

That text is not for criticate the english teachers. It's for criticate all the Catalan Education.

Easter Holydays

This Easter Holydays were very exciting, the first and the second day I spent my time to do the homework. I had a lot and in these moment I was very angry with my teachers. The Third day I and my father went to pick up wood in the forest, I liked very much because I could remember when I was young and my grandfather and my father went to pick up wood.
The forth day I went to Barcelona because my brother and me had to buy some clothes.
The rest of the days I stayed at home playing with the Pc or watching a TV program.

I think that this Easter Holydays were very short, if the High School want to disconect of the studies, with this short holydays they can't, because I spent a lot of my time doing homeworks, and a week later we have to return to High School. I think that the Education, in this country is bad.

Bye.

Settings: First battle; Stret of Verona vs Petrol Station

In the film we can saw that the first fight betwen capulets and montagues is in a Petrol station and the Police don't stop the battle.
But in the book we saw that the fight is in Verona's streets and the Prince stop it.
Another part is that the arms are not the same, in the book they have swords but in the film they have guns.
In the book there are not any explosions and fire and the fighters are the servents of the two families, Tybalt and Benvolio don't appear but in the film the Petrol station explodes ,Tybalt and Benvolio appear.

Now a days is a tame and docil dog, his behaviour with children is excellent and it's friendly, but a little bit big headed and stubborn.The bulldog, unfortunetly, have lots of healthy problems, they have smalls and thins respiratory ways and they have lots of allergies.One of the symbols of England is the Bulldog for his great history there.If you want a very good dog, get an english Bulldog

The British Museum

The British museum is the biggest and the most famous museum in the United Kingdom. With more than seven milion objects in, this peculiar museum is one of the oldest museums of the world.
It has different sections depending on the provenance of the valuable objects. I have been there two times and from my view the most interesting zone is the egypcian one. There are lots of mummies with a perfect conservation. Like all the museum under the objects are a small description of the object. It was very interesting read the explication of the Tutankamon's mummy.
Another spectacular zone is the Roman Empire. Here you can see variety of plates and pots doing with mud. There is also a part of one famous roman structure the Pantheon of Agripa.
If you go to London yo won't forget visit the british museum.
