FINAL TASK

First of all I want to say that I know I haven't done the best of mine in 1rst Batxillerat but if I have the luck of pass to second, I will do more than this year. I think I've improved a lot since September 2009, like for example my writings and my speaking.
I think my last presentation about social problems demonstrated that I'm better than the beginning of the year and Lisa had helped me a lot with pronunciation.
I've learned more English with Rebecca and doing the presentations because I think there's nothing better than speak for learn. Songs which we've done in class helped me a lot, too.
I can't say that there's an activity which I didn't find useful because all the work we've done in this year has been great.
I hope next year there will be another English person for do speaking because it's the best that high school can do for us. I think it's the best way to learn languages.
And Lourdes, of course you helped me a lot too !!!!! :)

Have a nice holiday !

THE RIGHTS OF LIFE.

 The right to life is the one with any human being simply because of existing and being alive, is considered a fundamental human right. Eat, rest, play, grow, learn, think for themselves, express themselves freely, work, build, make art, breathe, love and be loved. No hitting, aggression or punishment. These are all basic things without which we wouldn't be human. There are other lesser-known rights, but very grateful when we become aware of its existence. Such is the right of respect. Or the freedom to dream. Imagine another world very far from reality is our only way of escape for a while.Many are the rights of life, but above all, don't believe I'm talking about laws and all that stuff. This is shallow; what I have related is life.

TATTOO

A tattoo is something for the rest of your life. There's no turning back, if you do it, you won't be able to remove it. Don't do a tattoo just because it's cute, you like it or is original or is modern, no. If you really want to do a tattoo, it has to be something representative, something that moves you, something that is really something for you or your family or whoever.

Look at an example... I'm going to tattoo the word "freedom" in Greek and if I do it is because of the mythology. I've always dreamed about freedom but the gods were always free, it was their way of life, their daily lives. And so they didn't see why it granted the name of freedom. And it's something that I nor anyone else ever will, not gods.

ART

What is art ?
Art is generally understood as any activity or product made by humans with an aesthetic purpose or communicative, through which they express ideas, emotions or, generally, a world view.
The artist is the person who makes or produces works of art.

Can everyone really make art ?

In my opinion, art is not only a picture that can make anyone. It is something else. If behind the curves you don't hide any reason of why you drew this picture, is worthless. Draw for something, learns to represent what they feel, what comes over you and what makes you who you are. Put all your ideas together and get inspired in anything and you will see it helps.

NEW: CUTLTURE CENTRAL

Salvador Dalí loved the town of Perpignan. Three years ago a series of clasher took place in the city's street between rival cultural groups. But after that, Perpignan want to demostrated its ability to rise to the challenges of multi-culturalism.
But all this things cost a lot of money and the Generalitat only gave half. So, for win money they decided to do a lot of concerts in all the city for the summer. And there will be an exposition in memory of Salvador Dalí.

The first area is the 70s, pop music and freedom.
