MY RESEARCH PROJECT

Hello Lupita, I'm written this letter to explain how I would like to organize my research prject about Rucmaflac, an extinct animal.
Firts of all I would like to start with an introduction explaining why I chose Rucmaflac to make my research project and also I would explain what is this animal and where he lived. I don't know if I should explain the caracteristics of his habitat.
I would continue explaining his physical features and his skills.
Plus, I would make a list counting his enemys and what is his diet.
Finally I would finish the project with a conculsion where I would make a summary of the project and also I would explain how the project gone.

I will waite for your answer.

Human rights

Can we make Human Rights more relevant in the world today (with the help of social networks)?

In the past many nations in the world signed the Human Rights document, a statement with some articles that describes the basic human rights, without discrimination of race, gender, religious, political trends...
Nowadays,there're a lot of countries that don’t accomplish these rights, normally most of them are under a dictatorial system.
Social networks are very important, because it’s a world wide web , but often don't arrive to everybody because in that kind of countries they don't have internet, or there are prohibited webs.
I think we can make presure to our governments and International Community with the social network writing articles and asking what they do and pressure them to finish the economic relationships with the countries that don’t respect the Human Rights.




OPINION 5

CATALONIA

Hi everybody, my name is Maria and I'm an Erasmus student from Catalonia. As you know, Barcelona is the most famous city of my country, and also it's the capital of my community.
I love the huge diversity that catalonia has, there you can find diferent cultures and langages, so don't worry if you don't konw spanish or english because there you can speak german, chinese in some places,... Catalan is the second official language in catalonia, and it has diferent accents depending on where you live(valencia, balears, north of catalonia,...).
In my point of view, Catalonia is the best gastornomy destination in the world, because We have the mediterranean diet, a very varied diet. There is the best restaurant in the world, El Celler de can Roca!
We have many tranditions, for example we dance sardanes, and on Christmas we caguem el tio, a strange tradition where you have to hit a pice of wood with a stick.
I think it's a very special country with a lot of traditions and cultures with a reallt nice landscapes I recomended you to go. For example you could go to cadaques or Llença, where you can enjoy with a walk in the mountain or swim in the beach.

OPINION 3

THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE

As you know the principal consequence of pollution are climate change, and because of climate change temperature has increased. Thanks to this increase of temperature, the poles are melting and its effects can be catastrophic. Can you imagine it? 
For example, in my country, the sky has a strange orange color and the air you breath is heavy and suppressive as well because of the Spanish's industry.  Although I live in a small town and there are not a lot of pollution, I realize that this year was very hot by reason of climate change. 
We have to take all measures to stop this horrible effects of climate change on the planet as soon as possible. 

OPINION 2

-Imagine you have a toxic friend that is ruining your life. Write a letter to him/her explaining the problem and proposing solutions to re-establish your mutual confidence.

OPINION

-Write an opinion essay about how the use of the internet has changed our lives.

THE INTERENET

Nowadays the internet is an important part of our life, and I am pretty sure we wouldn't be able to live without the internet.

the first computer's prototype born in the second world war thanks to Alan Turin, and after its creation, the world lived an innovation's revolution.

I think that the internet born in the 90' and since this miracle, our way of doing things has changed. For example, our ways of socializing are different now, we can have a date with an unknown person thanks to webs like Tinder or darling. 
Plus the internet can help students with their projects. There are people that have a job as a result of the internet, and also every day is more usual to see people working from home on the internet.
The internet is increasing the globalization, an unfavorable thing in my point of view. An another dangerous situation about the internet is that everybody is able to know everything about you.

In conclusion, the internet has provided us with big advantages and disadvantages, and without this enormous network, our lives would be differents.

TASK- soulmate

DESCRIBE YOUR SOULMATE

Although I don't believe in soulmates, my perfect partner in life would be something like that:
-Inteligent, for talk about important and interesting things. To don't have bored conversations. 
-Sporting and relaxed, a person who likes sport and that at the same time loves the couch.
-Someone who loves series and could been hours and hours watching TV series.
-Someone who loves parties, but not discos, just town parties. Because I hate the atmosphere that discos have.  
-And someone who understands me. For example, I hate when people asks what is happening to me or when they upset me when I'm sad or serious.
-Someone with a degree or job. 
-And attractive. Althought for me the appearance isn't more important than the other characteristics already mentioned. In conclusion I prefer a cultured and social person who can understand me than an attractive person.
-Someone who could complete me.


Research

WOULD YOU FORGIVE YOUR PARTNER IF THEY CHEATED ON YOU?
I think I would be able to forgive my partner if he cheated on me. The other question is if I could keep on the realation after he cheated on me. I would keep on the relation just depending on the situation.
For example if he cheated on me because he was druk I would forgive him and I would continue with the realation, but if he cheated on me because he's bored about our relation, I would forgive him but I wouldn't keep the realtion with him.
Basically I'm able to forgive everybody but not to continue with the relation with the person who cheated on me.

Also, all of I said are my believes, because I don't have any experience and maybe I could hurt a person if these cheated on me

Another question that I have is: Have you ever wondered why do we love? And my answer is an another question: why do we believe in God? I think that both of them, love and God, are basic needs for humans even if we don't believe in them. We hate solitude so we build communities to preserve our specie, and reproduction induces us to love. This is my point of view about love, althought It seems that I don't like love, or that I have a cold view about it, I know that love are very important and that is very powerful!

And I have a finally question that says: Can your partner truly make you happy? YES, of course He/She can! It doesn't stop being someone that you chose because you like it. Plus, as all of us know, love are just chemical reactions, and maybe this reactions makes us happy, so yes, your partner can make you happy.

(Will gets up and comes closer to the doctor)

-Will: Your eyes are beautiful too.

(Doctor gets closer… and when he is trying to kiss him, Will pull up the eye of the Doctor and shout)

Presentation

AUTOAVALUATION  of the presentation

Some days ago, Mireia, carlota and I did a presentation abot the Victorian era. The information was interesting but the presentation was bored because we didn't make any game or joke during our speech.
I think I did it well althought I was so nervous. Also I was under so much presion because carlota and mireia know a lot of english. 
I said all I had to say, but without emotion, I'm like a robot when I am in fron of many people. My pronuinciation it's improvable as my english grammar. 
In general I'm proud but I knew that I could do better.

Yoursay- My favorite singer

MY FAVORITE SINGER
Music can be very important for many people. Be relaxed, in a good feeling, happy, or energetic are feelings that music can give to you. In general I like all kinds of music , but it depends on my mood. 
I don't have a favorite singer because there're many singers that I like, and because I usually listen popular music, so my musical culture is very low. 

One of my favorite singers are Adele and Sia. What I like most is that they are persons with  very clear and strong beliefs.  Adel won an oscar for her song, skyfall, and four grammys for her album 25. And Sia has several nominations at the Grammy Awards and Golden Globes.
Also I really enjoy catalan rock, like Els Catarres or Txarango. 
Although the music that I listen most is piano because it helps me to concentrate with my homework.

NEW


The Exploding Samsung Galaxy Note Has Been Banned From All Flights In The US

(http://elitedaily.com/news/exploding-samsung-galaxy-banned/1660160/)

This new speaks about that the new samsung, the samsung galaxy note 7, explodes. In US they've been completely banned from all flights, this applies to all flights to, from and within America. 
And if you try to bring the phone in the plane, you have to decide between give the telephone or not flight. 
Although They know that this can bring inconveniences for some passenger, like Anthony Foxx says, the safety is the first priority. 
The price of breaking this regulation is the penalty and fines. 

I agree with this regulation because the most important thing is the safety. I understand that this can suppose issues for some people, especially for that type of persons that depend on the mobile.

TED talks

TED talks
Angela Lee Duckworth is a psychologist that studies how the grit is the thing that makes us better. In the video that we saw the other day in class, she said that "grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals, grit is having stamina, grit is sticking your future day in day out..." Plus, Lee said she saw that what makes somebody greatest is grit, and not the IQ or healthy mind.

I really do not have any idea of what makes us greatest, but I don't agree with her. First because grit is not what she said, grit is the power to show you without shame. Of course I think that grit is important for oneself,but is not the principle of our mind, and it's just like talent. At one point of the video, she said that talent and grit are antonyms, but in my point of view, both of them are building our personality.

In relation to what she said about the failures (failure is not a permanent condition), I think that with every failure we learn something, but it's permanent, because although we will be better with failures, we always remembered our failures, those failures that made us. Also, I believe that you can't try the same thing because if at first you don't succeed you never will be successful with these. 


MY GOALS

MY GOALS
My dear teacher, I'm Maria Baguer Colomer and I'm writing these for speak about my goals. When I was little one of my goals was become a chef, but now I don't have any goal. Well, like everybody of my class, I think that it would be amazing pass batxillerat with great notes. And also have a beautiful house and a good job some day, but these goals are like everyone's goals. 
One thing that I really would like to have, but I've never said, is a NGO to save dolphins and whales, but as I know that this is really difficult because first I should have a lot of money, and it's a little bit impossible be rich, it's not a goal from my point of view, because I believe that a goal is something possible. 

"How I expect overcome them?". As Homer Simpson says, If something is too hard to do, then it's not worth doing. So, if i believe that something doesn't deserve too much work I just won't do it.

No one helps me to stay on track, I mind, of course my family  helps me, but not in the same way I would like to do it, so if I don't share the same thoughts,  it's not useful.
