Relaxing week

Hi!!
How are you? I'm really fine because this week are the recuperations and I don't have to go to any exam, only on wednesday then we all have to do the catalan exam. On the other hand, I may go to some exams to improve my mark, I will see. So, in general, this week will be like a holiday week for me, great!!

Then the next two weeks will consist of "Selectivitat" preparation classes. I feel ever surer that I want to do ADE or something similar with economicals and business. This week we have to choose the degree we want to do. Then, "Selectivitat" will be the 12th, 13th and 14th of June, I hope it will gone all right. After "Selectivitat" some of our class will go a week to Mallorca! I'm really looking forward to it because after this stressing year I'm sure that we will have a good time there.

What else? Yesterday some of our team went to see the match between Esplais (the first team) and Verges because they told us that they would make us the corridor for the champion. Finally, this doesn't happen but we stayed there to see the match because our first team also has possibilities to ascend into a higher league, but it will be difficult. They won the match 6-3, it was an easy match, specially during the first period.

I found this video from the match Esplais-Vilamalla. It was a great match until the referee gave this penalti in favor of Vilamalla injustly which complicated the possibilities to ascend. So the players were very angry and the fans too. We are the ones who are behing the goal. So, in the video you can see when the player of Vilamalla shot the penalti and scored, what a pity. I hope they will ascend and I think they will do it, for that they have to win the 3 matches which rest but they are able to make it possible because they have a really good team.

See you, byeee

Last day of school

Hullo!!

Well, today was the last day of our highschool time. Of course we have made an exam, of geography, and some teachers sayed us the final marks. We will remember many things of the highschool and all the time we have been together. Thank you for this good time. Next year we will begin a new life, we will know new people and stay away from home but I hope that I will see you regularly when we come at home at weekends. If I study in Barcelona I will come up every weekend because at weekends we have matches. Well, I'm waiting for a answer from FC Barcelona and then it would be easier jajaja

In football we still train once a week. Now it's very funny, after winning the championship we only make jokes and the trainings are very entertaining. With the childs I train, we are on a good line, from the last ten matches we have won 9 and 1 tied. They are all very good players I'm really proud of them. Next week Esplais CF organizes a football tournament for the cathegory of the team I train and they have invited teams like RCD Espanyol, Girona CF, FE Figueres, CF Palamós... in conlusion very good teams. I hope that we will win a match but it wouldn't be easy, my players have a winner mentality.

Keep on my friends,
Bye

Here's a video which shows the real beauty of football. Enjoy it!!

A singer for Amnesty International



Hi!!!

The last weeks of the course are beginning this means a lot of exams and general stress in the class, resumed.. horrible!! jaja
Today we have done a "Selectivitat" exam of English. I think I have done it well. I specially liked the topic of the reading, Amnesty International. In my opinion all the texts we read (English, Spanish and Catalan) should talk about this interesting topics.
When I saw the title I thought immediately about a rapper (sometimes this happens when you like rap XD) because some of his songs were used by Amnesty International to transmit their messages with songs which talk about the same thing and some were from this singer. His artist name is El Chojin. They aren't many rappers like him. He never uses insultes in his songs, he pretend to educate and to make think the listeners about what he says. He talks about different social problems in our society like racism, violence against women, that people should practise save sex... Normally he talks about this topics with a concret story and at the end of the song he makes a conclusion. He's very original, his songs are great and, in addition, he talks about the problems in our society and other interesting topics. In my opinion singers should transmit a message of reflexion to the audience, but nowadays they aren't many singers which do this and that's a shame. For that I like those singers so much because they aren't like the others. If you want to know more about El Chojin and his life go to this website:

http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Chojin

I leave you a song of El chojin, it's called "El final del cuento de Hadas" and it talks about violence against womens, he wants to fight against this and also against racism and other problems. This song was used by Amnesty International as a message against this kind of violence in concret. I think that the videoclip is very well done, because there is no violence. It's very simple but well thought.
Enjoy with his incredible song.

The champions!!!!!!!

Yes!!!
We have won the championship yesterday against Llançà!!! It's the first time in my life that I have won a championship and I hope that it wouldn't be the last. It was an easy match which we won 0-7. I played again after 4 months without playing and I were very happy!!! On saturday we just could have won the championship but we lost against Sant Pere Pescador. It was a great match and with lots of fans, a great ambience. So yesterday we were crazy for winning the championship as soon as possible because our last matches will be very difficult.
I haven't play much matches this year because of the injuries but those which I played I felt very well, we have an amazing team and over all we have fun. Let's see how good we will be next year in a higher league. I leave you some photographs from the celebration after the match in the changing room and a photograph of our team.

Stop Violence!


Hi! Today I will talk about a serious problem in our society which is talked about very often these last days.
The last news of violence happened in Virginia (USA), where a student killed more than 30 people. It has been one of the biggest massacres in schools.
They still don't know the reason which had the killer to do this horrible massacre.
The problem is not to know the reason which had this person. The problem is to search the reason of our violent society.

I will begin talking about video games. Nowadays, video games are divided by ages, so it has to be but the reality is very different. If you go to any video game shop you see 10 years old children buying violent games, which are for adult people, no one says anything. That can't be possible!!

TV is another big messager of violence and of course with a big audience mass. Every 5 minutes you can see some violent scene in TV.

So, we all every day see violence, specially in TV, and this make that some people, who may not have a strong personality, aplicate this violence, seen in TV or played in video games, in the real life. I think that some can't differenciate the reality from the virtual world and that's the basic problem against we all should fight to prevent more massacres like the last in Virginia.

In addition to TV and videogames, it's is really sad to know that in the USA you can buy weapons like you buy a pizza, nearly every american has a weapon. And I ask myself, is this the solution to defend oneself? Or it's more a fact to provocate more violence? How can it be possible to buy so easily a weapon when every day is talked about stopping violence? Why the international organizations don't try to ban such a primitive right?... they are infinite questions about such a topic.

Well, these holidays are very calm. We made some parties but in general they have beeing relaxing. At Wednesday we made a little dinner with some friends and we made the things which we every night do there, but it's still every night great.
Next week I will play again, after 4 and a half months without playing!!! If we tie the match we will win the championship and if we win of course to!! I'm really looking forward to it, it will be the first time that I win a championship.
I leave you a video which we saw several times at Wednesday and which made us crazy. jaja You will hallucinate, try it.

In two days holidays!!!

Hi classmates!!!
It's near, tomorrow the second term will finish and we will have a week holidays!! I need it. We have just planned some things we want to do during these days. This term has been very succesful for me, I hope that the third will be as good as this or better.
The last two days I have been in Barcelona. On tuesday we went to two expositions. The first was in the Fundació Miró, it was a crazy exposition with strange scultures. The second was in the MNAC (Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya) there we saw works of art which we studied in class so we understand some of them.
And yesterday I went to Barcelona because I had to go to the football doctor. It's very stressing going there because you have to wait a lot. I have to go again in two weeks.

This summer a Simpsons movie will come out. I like The Simpsons very much I see them every day because they are very funny. They exist since 1987 so since 20 years!! Incredible. And nowadays they are still very famous, more than never I think. But it's since 1989 that The Simpsons exist as an own TV programme because before they were only made as short films for a programme. So after 20 years they decided to make a film, here you can see the trailer of it.
