A happy ending

This time last, things weren't going too well for me. I'd failed some exams at my last school, and I also had a big argument whit my teacher Eva. Before I hated English! Everithing changed for me the day I went to Casa Nostra school. In Casa Nostra everithing was different. There was very good English teacher, her name is Alex Mach, I love her.

These days, I feel much happier. Now I work hard and I amb very motivated. I like English very much. In my opinion Casa Nostra is the best school in (Pla de l'estany).

A. IS TECHNOLOGY TAKING OVER OUR LIVES?

A. IS TECHNOLOGY TAKING OVER OUR LIVES?

Are you a tangled mess of BlackBerrys, emails, PDAs, iPhones, laptops, and cell phones? In my opinion all these electronic gadgets are like a drug, I can not live without them.

I think I'm involved in this drug, because at any moment I'm stuck in one of these electronic gadgets. Every day I log in facebook and msn, like all my friends.

Of course all of these devices lead us to a world very inappropriate for us. The bad part is that you will have consequences. So my parents forbid me some days to connect to facebook.

In conclusion, it is clear to me that I'd have to reduce hours of facebook.

SPENDING MY TIME...

WRITINGS

My name is Xavier Alsius and I’m 16 years old and I’m a student in Casa Nostra Porqueres. I’m interested in sports and the animals. Some of my friends are into sports too. I spend most my time with my friend David. The thing which I like best is playing in the football field.

I don’t think that the world is a bad place, but I think it would be better, but one thing that annoys me is when people are unfriendly with me.

As far as the future is concerned, it sometimes worried me the world is ending soon.

History of surf.
Surfing is one of the oldest practiced sports on the planet. Surfing is also one of the few sports that creates its own culture.
The act of riding waves with a wooden board originated in Western Polynesia over three thousand years ago. The first surfers were fishermen.
Early historical records of surfing appear in the late 1700s, when Europeans and Polynesians made first contact in Tahiti. Only three types of trees were picked to make a board.
There were four basic boards in Hawaii:
- The paipo or kioe, a body board, from 2-to-4 feet long, usually used by children.
- The alaia (ah-LAI-ah) or omo (O-mo), a mid-sized board, about 8 feet or longer.
- The kiko`o, larger than the alaia, but not as big as the biggest boards; between 12 and 18 feet; good for bigger surf, but requiring a high level of skill to handle.
- The olo (O-lo), a very long surfboard reserved for royalty that could be as long as 18-to-24 feet in length.

Subject: Your visit
Hi, EsteL.

I'm just writing to check that everything's for your visit.
I think you'll like Cadaques. On Friday morning we're going shopping around the city. So we'll probably meet some of my friends in the afternoon and we can go to the beach. They are very pretty beaches.
On Sunday, we could go to visit the Dalí home and after we going to go fishing to the coast on the rocks. At night we'll go into a disco with my friends. We're going to meet you at the bus station tomorrow at 10:30, OK?
Bye,

GIVING ADVICE

Dear Pau

My best friend isn't talking to me at the moment and I'm not sure what's the problem. I've also received one or two unfriendly messages recently. Unfortunately, I haven't got other friends and I feel very unhappy. What should you do?

Xuni

Dear Xuni

If I were you, I wouldn't be too worried about this. Are you sure these people are your friends?
Obviously, you should talk to them as quickly as possible. You must speak honestly to them and tell them that you are worried.
As for the texts, you must try no to think about them. Unfortunately, people are strange sometimes, and you have to live with it.

THE FUTURE

In my opinion our lives will b more expensive and healthier in the future. We'll create more pollution, ans scientists won't create super-robots. We maihht have more time or entertainment.
I thing it's important that we colonise space. If we don't live on other planets, we will not have enough food or space for all of the people on Earth.
In general I feel optimistic about the future.

HORSEBALL.

HORSEBALL.

Horseball has existed since 1988. It started in France, not very popular sport. Horseball was invented by brothers DUPON. For me it’s the best sport in the world.
The biggest international competition horseball is the world championship, which started in 1998. Horseball never was an Olympic sport.
Ones of my favourite French teams are CHAMBLY and BORDEAUX. Chamby have won six leagues, and Bordeaux have won 4 leagues.

A survivor story

Las November we were celebrating Christmas in Cadaques, Alt Empordà, in the Costa Brava. At ten o'clock at night with my family while I was playing with my cousins.
Suddenly, it was a very strong easterly wind, and at the same time started a strom. The waves formed by the wind, destroyed the streets next to the sea.
Afterwards the paddles began to build the streets.
