I think that this year I have worked hard but my results aren´t satisfactory because I don’t have the level appropriate. I learnt much doing blogs because I have the obligation of writing and writing is the best method to improve. The activities of oral presentations I don’t like because I don’t know enough English and I have to study the text, many of times I don’t know what to say because I have nerves and I forget everything. Is very frustrating for me that I try things but I don’t get the results. The method of new technologies is much appropriated for people that have a minimum of English because if you don’t have this minimum surely you need to use a translator or something similar. The best for people like me is to practice grammar on the books and write essays. I don’t like reading complicated texts because I don’t understand anything and I choose to invent. I consider that I don’t have an appropriate person to comment this. Teacher thanks for being frank with me, and sorry for the other day I don’t feel pity for myself but I behaved like this because I felt frustrated.

India says Pakistan “a terror sanctuary”
The killing of Osama bin Laden near Islamabad is proof that “terrorist belonging to different organisation find sanctuary in Pakistan”, Indian home Minister P Chidambaram says.
President Obama’s statement that the King leader terrorist was killed by Americans soldiers, with a shot in head. After killing him the American soldiers threw his body into the sea.
I don’t believe this because if American soldiers should kill Osama, they would show the body in their country.
Surely the Americans say this to calm the population because this man attacked their economy. Surely Osama bin Laden has many followers that they will be prepared very well. In Morocco the majority of people believe in the ideology of Osama. Now more Marrakesh people want revenge for this death.
Granada
Everyear I travel to Granada with my parents and brother. I go to Granada because there is my grandmother, but she doesn’t live in Granada, she lives in one village in the Alpujarras.
Alpujarras are situated in front of Sierra Nevada. The Aplujarra is a big mountain and contains many small villages.
Every village is very beautiful. In the village that my grandmother was born “Pórtugos” there is a fountain that contains iron in the water and is very healthy. “Pórtugos” has 1300m of latitude.
The typical of Alpujarra is the ham because they have a process of cultivating the hams is very special. The most famous village is Trevélez.
I like to go to the village very much of my grandmother because there are beautiful landscapes. The inconvenient of the mountain is that when I go up by car there are so many bends and I get dizzy.
The Alhambra is a wonderful monument that you can’t visit in one day because it is very big.
Catalonia
Catalonia is an autonomous community very beautiful. It has many things to do, for example if you want to Ski you can go into “La Molina”. If you want the sea or the beach there are many holiday resorts to choose from and each one nicer. Also there are many cultural activities. There are many museums and exhibitions as pictures, innovations, etc. The museum MNAC has many art works as the works of the church of “St. Climent de Taüll”.
It’s an ideal place for Foreigners. But Catalonia has many problems with politicians, because Catalonia wants the independence from Spain. Now Catalonia wants the “Concert econòmic” as the “País Basc” because Catalonia pays all the taxes to Spain and then Spain gives back an allowance more very inferior for its needs. For every euro Catalonia pays Spain returns 0’68 cents. That is the balance fiscal from 2008. Now Spain won’t publish any more balances until 2013.
Are you obsessed?
In the world there are most people that they have one addiction. The majority of people have addictions as smoke, alcohol, drugs or more substances but this a direct addiction that is not accepted by society.
Also in the world there are indirect addictions as collecting pencils or labels. Why the societies don’t consider this a direct addiction? Only the society considers direct addictions the bad things. The question is: Are people who collect things also considered obsessed?
Yes, I consider that everything in excess is obsession. The problem is that the society is being educated to have some types of obsessions because if everybody have an obsession surely they will spend more money and consume more.
I am obsessed with collecting pictures of Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn I don’t have any more space to hang pictures.
Everything is an obsession.

The spring in Empuriabrava
Today 1/04/2011 I have been for a walk street and I noticed that the vegetation with a bright green colour. Also in the gardens there are flowers typical of spring as tulipans, genariums. When I breathe I smell the flowers and the heat of spring. The heat of spring is very pleasant and there is a little breeze which makes life very pleasant.
When you go to the terrace and lie on the sunbed and you get brown.
I love spring it is the best part of the year because we have longer days and shorter nights. The only problem is that the weather is very changeable with many hours of sun mixed spells of showers.
In the afternoon we can go for a bicycle ride and going for a walk on the beach with the family and pets.
