E-MAIL TO THE TEACHER

BEFORE:

When asked who we are, we always respond the same: our name, age, housing, etc. In my case is Lorena Galán Palacios, 16 years old and live in Castelló d’Empúries.

Also, we can explain our adventures, parties, concerns, etc. I was guided by the impulse many times and that is not always good.

As a child I was a little ballet dancer. Later, when I grew up I was and I still like to dance, I "hip-hop" for about a year. Now I usually go to the gym.

Normally in summer I usually go out every day, especially this year with my friends we have gone far to the beach by bike. And at night we went out to dinner or party or any activity we could do together. 

Right now I'm in high school social because it's over the summer and wanted to continue with my studies. Later I hope to get to go to college. I think making school is the best way to get a good level to enter the race you want.

MY NEW WORK

A couple of weeks ago that I work. A friend of my mother asked if I could take care of their children. So I work. In truth it is fun because children are not very small, have 7 and 9 years old. When they get home from school you explain all that you have done and find it very funny that you all confín his stuff and you explain it all with a lot of confidence. It is not a difficult job but depending on what days, is tired; because I just want to have fun and let's play almost 90% of the time. The rest look at movies that I have at home and there is like.

BIKE

When I was little I hated ride your bike, but if we did "the week of the sport". I had never had a bike until the 4th grade of primary school (well I guess that when I was little I had some, but I don't remember anything). I didn't find fun ride a bicycle, therefore, there was, in part, also I liked the helmet. But now that I'm a teenager and I like to go out and do sports with friends we go cycling in many places, we also spend well, because not everyone can have a bike, so we go by bike and the road is so much fun. Within a week you have my new bike, I'm very happy. In short, the tastes change, and more when you're small and steps to be a teenager.

A ROMANTIC MOVIE

The film of Romeo and Juliet is about two teenagers who fall in love, but their families are the enemy and any member of a family may be in contact with each other. In one of the children of the two families meet and fall in love, when they realize families try to separate them, but, because of the families end up dying.

 

FAIRS

On Saturday April 25 was the first day that my friends and i went to fairs. In fact, rather we went to shanty towns, it is true that we were a lot while at fairs but we were more in huts. The music that day was not very good, but the fact of being with friends I solved everything. That day we got back around 3 or 4 in the morning at home but it was the first day and had to take advantage. We went back to go on Thursday, April 30th, but if it weren't for the friends, the fairs are not much fun.

LA GIRA DE L'INSTITUT

I'm in 4th ESO, in 19 days in principle just the course, and if all goes well, my graduate degree. I still remember my first day at first of Eso, I was very nervous. My cousin told me that it was very difficult but it is not so much. Have been going through the courses (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th). I am very glad of the friends I've made and everything that I've gone in the Center. In principle, I still get two more years of batchillerat and hopefully sigin as good as these last 4 years. There is always negative parts, but bueno, like everywhere else.
