Final Reflection

In my last post I'm going to compare my first post and first presentation with my last post and last presentation.

In my first post I talk about a topic with basic vocabulary, using basic expressions and simple and short sentences to try to make few mistakes. Besides I didn't use connectors and I made a lot of mistakes in verbs tenses.  Now in my last post I could see a good improvement especially in my vocabulary and connectors. Also I improve in sentences (make it long) and now I use better expressions.

My best post I think it was my review about Captain America because I use a good vocabulary as twisted or more exotic words. Also this post have a few mistakes.

And in presentations, I could see a better improvement. I my first presentation I always watched the paper to didn't commit mistakes and because I felt very nervous. In my last presentation I didn't watch the paper but I felt nervous too and I don't know the reason about it.

Is jealousy natural?

In my opinion, yes it is natural. It is instinctual emotion for an individual. I think that jealousy starts at childhood as a rivalry between two brothers. Since childhood we have always wanted to give us the same as our brother or sister and if they didn't give us the same thing we didn't like it. And that feeling of jealousy nobody has taught us.

The passage of years this feeling was increasing, it wasn't only with brothers also we began to be jealous of friends or anyone. For example: if a friend score more goals than us or got better marks or he was just talking to someone and we didn't.

Another proof that jealousy is natural is that animals also have them. If for example you're watching TV while you stroke your dog and suddenly you stop to pet him, he begins to give you his paw for you continue to stroking him.

To finish I conclude that the jealousy is natural but that doesn't mean it is neither good nor bad, it just means that everyone is jealous and this jealousy are natural. Some will have more jealousy and some less but everyone have it.

Subject: Human Rights

Dear Mr. President of USA Barack Obama,
We are writing to explain our opinion about human rights and show that many countries violate the Human Rights.

Human Rights are very important because they are the rights we have just because we are humans. If these countries violate the human rights it means that those countries treat us like we are not humans.
We think the best way to carry out the rights it is should be in the law. If the countries do not comply the law they would have to pay for it.

We also hope that you will give us your opinion about these topic and would like to know if USA is one of these countries.

We look forward to your reply.
Sincerely Barack Obama

Cinema And Science

My project consists of the connection between cinema and science, I mean the influence of cinema in science. For example, how the movies have influenced in technological advances. Also, there are films where other disciplines, like philosophy, are important for instance the movie The Truman Show with the Allegory of the Cave. Moreover, I have searched movies which serve to the science disclosure where the director has been faithful to science to make the film.

I would like to work as a mascot because I like to feel happy the other people. Also I'm very laughting and I think that would be a good job for me. Since the General Manager of Toronto Raptors did not pick me, I need to find a job near the basketball. After I thought a lot of jobs nearly basketball I chose the mascot option. I think that I will enjoy this job and people will enjoy me.

Looking forward to your prompt reply.

Description: My best friend

I'm going to describe Oriol Canet who's living in Castello he's 16 years. He fond of play basketball and computer games. Oriol is a person who's worried about studies.

Oriol wears a black and white stripead cotton hoddie and wears a pair of blue jeans. Also he wears a black woolen socks and a pair of red cotton nike.
He's long-armed.He's a person who is hard-working and he angry with people who are lazy. Also he is introvertit and judger. He always pleased with his events.

I think that he's a good friend but often he does stupid things. Although he's obsessed with study, he's mad about sports.

What’s Your Animal Personality Type?

My animal is the fox.

I agree on almost everything for example, according the text the fox is influential and charismatic and I think that I'm thereby. Also the text says that the fox seek's the best in life and this is true because I always seek the positive moments and I try to avoid the negative moments.
And one thing that is wrong is the fox manipulates people and I consider that I don't do it. The last thing is that the text says that I'm a great salesman nnd now don't know if it's true.

Fashion Quiz

Librarian

42% Flamboyance, 40% Originality, 36% Deliberateness, 45% Sexiness

[Tasteful Conventional Random Prissy]

You don't pay too much attention to fashion and far be it from you to spend hours on designing outfits which could shock your friends. If you ever shock them it's by how little you care about the clothes you're wearing. The only thing you pay attention to is not to look ridiculous. You don't need to draw attention wherever you come but you definitely need to know you are not the object of jokes. You are happy to blend in. I'm sure this approach leaves you a lot of time and energy for more interesting things than fashion.

The opposite style from yours is Catwalk God(ess) [Flamboyant Original Deliberate Sexy].

All the categories: Librarian Sporty Hottie Office Master Uptown Girl/ Boy Brainy Student Movie Star Fashionista Glamorous Soul Fashion Enemy Bar Cruiser Kid Next Door Sex Bomb Hippie Kid Fashion Rebel Fashion Artist Catwalk God(ess)

Chee Seng and Tracy

The similitudes of Chee Seng and Tracy: the main similarity is that their fathers leaves them and then begin the problems with the alcohol, drugs, weed and exams worse. Another coincidence was they weren't popular but they liked and neither best friends it was. And the last coincidence was that their mothers tried to help them.

                                                        

The differences: In the end of the book, Chee Seng's mother was in hospital and in film Tracy discovers that her best friends betrays her.

Ugly Duckling

Peter and Collum were walking to their first school day, the summer ended and they were  very anxious
because they didn't meet anyone before.
As soon as theey started classes they realised that they weren't the tallest, strongest, prettiest, so they feel embarassed.
During their first week they became aware that if they didn't improve their popularity they would be abused and mistreated. So that, Peter suggested Collum to meet each other and planed a way to reach the popularity. But all went wrong, because Jackson and his friends bullied and embarassed them in front of everyone.
The following days Collum and Peter two boys from an outskirts small village, started suffering practical jokes from Jackson, the strongest and others guys.
3 months later they were fed up and started karate classes in the gym with the objective of protecting themselves and seduce Carol, the most beautiful girl in class.
Finally when the last term was ending, they were stronger than their rivals and Carol started noticing them. They were the most popular then.
