The first time that I drove a car


When I was 13 years, I did not know how to drive a car, but I always felt curiosity for it. One day when I was alone in my house, my father’s car was in the garage.

I opened the door of the car and I turned on it but I had no idea how operated neither changes nor the pedals, it was the first time that I tried to drive the car.

The moment that the car was turned on, it pulled back so fast and the garage door was closed, so I clashed and the door dropped. I was very scared and I began to cry because I didn’t know what to do. Then I saw that the car had not been beaten, it only had a small line of paint, then I looked for help where a mechanic at the corner of my house, the man helped me and the problem of the car was solved, but I still could not fix the door of my house.

Later my parents came home and the only thing I could say was that a person who was driving a car collided with the door. Days after a neighbor told them the truth and I was punished for one month. Three years later my father taught me to drive car.

My First experience in my new school.


When I was 15 years old I went to a new school called "SAGRADOS CORAZONES".It was a big and bored school.It had a church, yard, pool and etc. Well, the point was that In January 6th "fool's day" we always had a mass each year but this day was special because only this year we had a mass together with all the courses, grades and teachers. It was a very big and beautiful celebration. At 8:30 am, the mass started and the Priest was talked during the mass we felt a strange and tense enviroment because we felt something different.

The mass finished and all we returned to classes and respective courses everything was calm and normal. Near at 10:00 o´clock in the morning the proffesors had a meeting in the boardroom, it was a little suspicious but nobody said nothing. They left the meeting and they looked a little worried but they did not say anything. The problem was that The director was receiving calles and letters said that in our high school was a bomb and that it was in one of the degrees of pre-basic. THE LETTERS SAID THAT WE MUST LEAVE THE SCHOOL. The DIRECTOR CALLED To The Police and we asked them help , THEY ARRIVED And BEGAN TO LOOK FOR BUT The PROBLEM BECAME bigger BECAUSE ALL The SCHOOL knew. And we were SCARED And DESPERATE.

All we met in the yard and the director told us about the bomb it was terrible for the school and they requested to us that we made a row and we took care for children but it was impossible because we were not calm and everybody started to ran and cried. we started to run, run, run and everybody were desesperate and also it was the worst minutes in our life. We arrived "Ecuador" high school and we tried to calm there until the police told us that everything was quiet and normal. Finally, in the school there was not a bomb and it was only a bad joke.

MY FIRST JUMP OF AN AIRPLANE WITH PARACHUTE


When i was 15 years old, I travel to Nashville Tennessee alone, Nashville is a calm city, Is not like New York, Chicago or Miami, many people in these cities live and the city never sleeps or rests. Nashville is like a town in the United States, in reality is very big and live around three million inhabitants. I went to Nashville to live around six months, then had to adapt to the customs of the house.

One day we went to an exhibition of the airborne, it was in the Grand Prix to Nashville, here was stores parachute, weapons, war tanks, and many other things most impressive.
In the store the parachute that was the biggest, we spent most of time waiting to be able to jump from a plane.

Around three hours was fifteen people receive indications prior to jump, learn about the height for which jump, speed to that down, clothes that wear, and how must jump.
The plane was ready, we must aboard with the professional parachutes, after 30 minutes of being the airplane the time ends, the general of parachutes said, That was our time to skip!, with motivation phrases.

Be opened the rear of jump, I was fourth and my two cousins, Paul and Marvin was back to me, I was nervous but happy and with a special feeling, started the jumpers and was my turn, I had a lot of emotion and thousands of things by my mind, once in the air the sensation is unique, feel the empty, the instructor opened the parachute and down soft with a unique view.

I did a parachute jump once, but do again every time that I can, this is a unique and extraordinary experience, I recommend it to everyone, if you can do it, not fear, just jump!

My first time in "Newcomers High Schol"




The first time I went to New York was Christma`s vacations. In this occasion we were my mother, my brother and I. We arrived at my aunt`s apartment all the month. I remenbered were a good vacations, eventhoug was a winter very cold. But, I knew many pretty and different places. But like everything, the trip finished and it was time to return to home.
But no everyboby came back, because my brother decided to remain in New York.
After months I also wanted to return to New York to study, and with ticket in hand I returned and to the month already I was enrolled in the school. Everything marched normal, although this was something new for my, because0 there was people from all parts of the world.
And one day (september, 11) I was in gym class, when the teacher say "Hey gays, everybody come here, there are something I have to comunicate you". So we were ready to lisen to the teacher, when she turn on the television, and said, "I don`t really what`s happening, but the twin towers suffered an accident, because an airplane crushed in the top of one of the towers"
Everybody was in shock! And the rumors started some comments was and accident, and others said, no is`s not an accident, this is something plaqned by some terrorits.........
I didn`t know what to think, I was very confused and I just wanted to go back home.
But surprise the teachers said "Nobody could leve the building school until trains and buses normalized their routes. The time kept going and the news now said "there isn`t an accident, this is a terrorism attack". I was more confused than after, I didn`t know what to do, then some friends came to me and toll me "let`s leave the school building" so I decided to do it.
So when we opened the door everything was so dark and scare.
We had to walk until aor departments, bacause there weren`t trains eighter buses, and each minute, everything got worst, bacause in the news we hear more terrorism attack in Washinton,
I did`t know what was going to happened, but at the next day people still were very scared and confused. Then days, months and yeard had passed, we had listened new news and stories about the people who died and the suvivor people. But no body had forget it that terribol day.... A day that marked the people`s life for ever...

My first time in jail



When i was 15 years old i learn how to drive, obviously without papers i was very young to have a license. Fridays I and my friendly go to Remigio Crespo I think everybody know this place and this street on fraidys is really crazy because is too mach people there and also is dangerous is many drunk people driving around.




I wen to my friends house there was the meeting at 3 pm almost every friday many friands come and we go to the streets. later in the street we so the police in motorbike they saw us and they try to catch us but we scape, three hours later we so again the cops was the same motorbike they recognized to us and and they called by radio to but police.



The motorcycle was back of us but the car to whom they called. the car come out on the other street and us hill the way. three policemans they came very fast to my car and they asked me for my papers ofcousrse I could not show my documents because I dont have driver licence.

The cops stopped to me and they took prisoner to me .

MY FIRST TIME BUNGEE JUMPING


Wow! I never thought that it absolutely needed lots of courage to decide, "Should I jump, or should I wait until someone pushes me or even to tell me NO REFUND AT ALL!"
At the same time, a couple of Americans whose fetish was exactly bungee-jumping shouted at me and made loud noises. I didn't pay any attention. Perhaps they were some encouraging words, but not wanting to wait and take turns, all I could hear was the voice from the safety crew standing next to me saying, "Relax. Breathe deeply. Look at those beautiful mountains in the distance... Five. Four. Three. Two. One. Jump!"
Ironically, his final countdown didn't work for anyone because we were all still standing right there, right on the small platform located on the top of the hill.


It all began with a fascination of bungee jumping, the most extremely exciting entertainment in the world. Well as soon as I stepped on the tiny walkway leading to the platform, all my heroic bravery was gone and seemed to be left at the registry counter of the shop on the ground when I paid the money.
Looking downwards along my heavy path, I realized, "Gee, it's amazingly high from the ground, maybe I should just leave quickly before I die and simply waste the money in order to save my life! But, at the final countdown, I closed my eyes and then jumped.
Oh, I could not believe I jumped! So confused, yet enjoying the speed of free fall, like I was committing suicide, jumping from a building.
I started to scream louder and louder in my heart but concealed this feeling by making no sounds at all outside. I had already been very embarrassed to linger there at the edge the moment before, and thus I had to be a bit cool through the whole process of jumped to save face. Honestly, I was so so terrified!
The most memorable second was the time before and right after I jumped. That's my best conclusion from the bittersweet experience of bungee jumping. Strangely, I felt my body was not steady enough to stand or walk properly but had had a very good sleep that night.
it's safe and thrilling!

My f!rst h!gh school escape




It was the first time that I left the school without any authorization. I was 16 years old; the reason why I decided to escape was that some of my friends were doing a program in their college to be the college presidents. I was studying at Catalina’s High School, so; if you know my high school you know that it is almost impossible to escape if you are inside, however we did it.
Everything was perfectly planned but if our teachers became to suspect our classmates known what they had to say. As we used to be volleyball players we usually left the college for some game so our upset was not going to be too wearing.
Each one took in our back packs different cloth to use after our escape so with that we were not giving any suspicions.

We decided to separate in two groups until a specific point “Millennium Plaza”, later one of our friends come to see us and then we went to his High School.
We believed that everything was cool until a phone message we get it, in which one a classmates said “a teacher saw you, you are in huge troubles”. We almost died we did not know what we have to do, some of us started to cry, I was confuse.

A few hours later Ivy’s father, one of my friends who escape too, comes to the high school. It caused a shock and all of us started to run away trying to escape with some place but Ivy did not have choice because her daddy sees her when she was trying to climb a wall. When she remembers that she could not understand what was thinking.

And you could imagine how it finished, Ivy’s father told everything to each family involved including my family, in our high school we were punished too with bad grades and some of us were conditioned too. Now, it is funny but in those days it was horrible; however an important thing to remark is that our friends won the high school elections!!!

The first time that I dive in the ocean.


This happen in Galapagos. My family and I went there to know the island but people from there offer a service to take a course to learn to dive in three days in a pool and then the instructor could go with yoo to the ocean to dive there. When I finished the course I was afraid because I had never liked so much to swim in the ocean, in fact I was afraid of it, Idon't know why, anyway that day I jumped from the boat and began to swim around big rocks. So my instructor told me that I should immerse baside the rocks and I will find a beautiful view. I was afraid but I did it. At the begining it was too dark and the rocks look very scary but I kept diving and at the bottom it was amazing. There were a lot of little fishes that swimming in a big group but the most exciting was that they did it next to me. I could even touch them. I saw big fishes too with great colors, brillant and dark. I saw a lot of corals with diferent colors and other plants. But the best part was when we arrive to a small beach to eat something and came back to the boat. My instructor told me there were sea lions and if we were lukcy we could see them and even swim with them, and I was lucky because we found them; we approach to them and they began to play with us swimming around us . It was one of my best experiences.

My first time on a boat!!!

I remember as it happened yesterday but honestly it happened 12 years ago. My Sister and I always loved going out for drinks, walking the dog, shopping or just going out for a walk but that Friday we decided that we should do something different, really different; we didn’t know what to do because the day was horrible, it had been raining for about 9 hours the streets were flooded, people was very scared, stores were closing up soon that day so there wasn’t anything interesting going on. Walking back home and going through the spring we sow a little boy trying to call our attention, we could hear what that little boy yield at us… “Please, come here!!! Get in the boat and help me taking it to the next spring… it is an emergency… it is important!!!” Our only reaction was only look at each other and says “what can lose by doing that”.
We ran towards the boat, got into it and start calling the boy, “Hey!!! Little Boy” Where are you?!!! We are already here!!!! Let us help you!!! But no one came out. Tired of calling we decided to leave the boat but we couldn’t, the boat was moving!!! “What are we supposed to do?” Scream to each other, but with no answer decided to find where the front part was and start sailing until we get to the dock… It was very hard and difficult because of so many reasons: the weather was awful; it was raining so the ocean became dangerous and furious, it was very cold, and the hatch was closed so we couldn’t direct it properly or simply right. After being sat down for 2 hours waiting for someone to help us we he felt a strange crash, finally we crashed against a huge rock that is why the boat stopped, we weren’t far from the shore so we just jumped and swim until the beach, after 20 minutes of swimming we reached the shore, ran home and rest without telling a word about what happened.
The next morning we got up and walked by the beach were everything happened but nothing was there, except a little boy playing with the sand and asking for help for some reason… we just pretend we didn’t hear anything and kept walking…

The Grand Canyon


In summer i went to the grand canyon it was one of the most incredible views i have ever seen is so impresive to see something that you hear in the t.v. news, people, etc. The Grand canyon is located in the Arizona state carved by the colorado river, is one of the first national parks in the United States.

When you actually get there you can see the rocks and everything, the river is red and there are many ups and downs (rocks), it is 266 miles long, the ranges in width from 4 to 18 miles and its depth of more then a mile, so you can see why the grand canyon is one of the principal eight wonders of the world.

During prehistory, the area was inhabited by Native Americans who built settlements within the canyon and its many caves. The Pueblo people considered the Grand Canyon a holy site and made pilgrimages to it.

It is one of the best sites anyone can see is impresive being that is from the earth and no human did that it was like that million of years ago and people enjoy going to see the beatiful view of the Grande Canyon.


New York City


New york, one of the best cities that I have ever been on. It history is amazing, and going there allowed me to be in well known places and to have a great time. The first time I went there was when I was about 12 years old. It made me felt little since I was surrounded by these huge buildings everywere, long and straight side walks, cars going out and in time square, it was a crazy and busy life. Everyday as the sun rised up, and the hottness of the city started to be felt, again all these people waiting for the train to come, the noise was strong and different of others; cars waiting the traffic light to switch into green, and I waiting for it to switch into red, everybody rushed and some of them were serious bussnines men, arriving in large and fancy limos, all these things made me thought: "what a life they have".

New York, the city that never sleeps, considered the capital of the world, because there are so many cultures and each of them give a plus to the city. I visited the historical Statue of Liberty, it is amazing to see how big it is, and how much it represents for the peolple of New York. The Empire State Building and the Twin Towers that still were there until the 9-11, what a monsters they were. All these gansters stories that have been told, got me kind scared but at the same time amazed, because of how things were done in the past, and still happens. Famous people that have done history in it. It is a colorfull city, at night the lights turned in, even with the day light you can tell some of that. Everything is lighted up, all places are crowded, and the other face of New York city live gets alive.


¡ What a great city it is ! .








By myself for the fist time

When I turned 15 years old, my parents told me that my present could be to throw me a party or they could send me to the United States. I thought about this present a lot, and after taking my time, I chose the trip. My main reason was that the party would have lasted a few hours, but the trip was for 3 months and I was going to live for that time in Kansas and learn about their culture and way of living.

When I told my parents, they were very happy for me so they contacted some friends they had thath live over there and prepared all the papers so I can leave. My first really interesting and new experience during the trip was to face the airport and all the things I had to do there by myself. I was really scared, but I did it and it went well.

My second challenge was the flight. Normally, I was not afraid of airplanes so I thought this trip was going to go well. But when it took off, I realized that I wasn't afraid of airplanes because I had always had someone from my family near me! It was a really long flight for me and I tried to relax by watching the plane's TV and reading a magazine. It was not that awful after all. Another thing that worried me was that when I got to the United States I had to change planes and I was nervous about doing it right. Those airports were much bigger than the ones we have back home so I didn't know what to do. I remembered what my mom gave me as an advice and I read and followed every sign that led me to the correct spot. I actually did it and it fealt really great!

When I arrived to Kansas, my parents' friends went to pick me up at the airport. I loved living there. I learned a lot of things, I even went to school for those 3 months as a foreign exchange student and actually shared with americans many things. It was an amazing experience.

Coming back to Ecuador was a piece of cake to me, my flight back was my second time by myself so I overcame it really easy and I enjoyed my flight very much! All my fears had gone away.

DON QUIXOTE, by Miguel de Cervantes


Alonso Quixano, a fiftyish retired country gentleman, lives in an unnamed section of La Mancha with his niece and a housekeeper. He has become obsessed with books of chivalry, and believes their every word to be true, despite the fact that many of the events in them are clearly impossible. Quixano eventually loses his mind from little sleep and food and because of so much reading. He decides to go out as a knight-errant in search of adventure. He designates a neighboring farm girl, Aldonza Lorenzo, as his ladylove, renaming her Dulcinea del Toboso, while she knows nothing about this. Although the first half of the novel is almost completely farcical, the second half is serious and philosophial about the theme of deception. Don Quixote's imaginings are made the butt of outrageously cruel practical jokes. Sancho eventually does get his imaginary island governorship and unexpectedly proves to be wise and practical; though this too, ends in disaster. The novel ends with Don Quixote's complete disillusionment, with his melancholic return to sanity and renunciation of chivalry, and finally, his death.


Don Quixote is often nominated as one of the world's greatest works of fiction.

Don Quixote's importance in literature has produced a large and varied cultural and artistic legacy. The cultural legacy of Don Quixote is one of the richest and most varied of any work of fiction ever produced. It stands in a unique position between medieval chivalric romance and the modern novel. The former consist of disconnected stories with little exploration of the inner life of even the main character. Quixote's adventures tend to involve situations in which he attempts to apply a knight's sure, simple morality to situations in which much more complex issues are at hand. Because all of this I really recommend to read this novel since it is one of the greatest, it has action, love, it is creative, it has crazy and funny things, i really enjoyed and liked reading this novel.

The Goal

The goald is a story writting by Eliyahu Goldratt, Jeff Cox. And it is about Alex Rogo, the manager of UniCo, a manufacturer plant, who receives an ultimatum of its head. He most to improves the yield of the factory in 3 months, or it is closed. So, its race against the time begins to run. Luckyly, Rogo knew Jonah, his old professor of mathematics, who now is specialistic in production. Therefore, Jonah helps Rogo to get rid of his traditional way to think, and to recognize what he needs to make to control all the production problems.
Instead of guiding it, Jonah makes some questions to Rogo, that he must to answer, to reach the solution through the deductive logic.
The solution to the problems is in the "Theory of the Limitations". And according to this one, it is necessary to obtain the “necks of bottle”, (a dificulty in the producction, because to much inventary, to much production,etc). Once found, everything is due to organize so those units will be in high-priority place in any plan of work.
Moreover, Rogo was havind also family troblems, because his wife was unhappy with his new job, he was speending to much time to his work and forgiving his wife and kids. Therefore the problem was bigger because now the factory was going to close and his family was going to fall out.
But finally, with Jonah`help he get to solve every trouble in the factory and with his family. That is way a like this novle, because I think that al persons are able to solve ours problems, even the biggers one.

THE GUESTS


A young couple was on a trip to visit his mother. Usually they arrived in time for supper. They had gotten a late start, and now it was getting dark. Both of them decided to look for a place to stay overnight and continue in the morning.

Just off the road, they saw a small house in the woods. "Maybe they rent rooms", the wife said. So they stopped to ask. An old man and woman came to the door. They didn't rent rooms, both said. But they would be glad to have them stay overnight as their guests. They had plenty of room, and they would enjoy the company. The old woman made coffee, brought out some cake, and the four of them talked for awhile. Then the young couple was taken to their room. They explained that they wanted to pay for this, but the old man said he would not accept any money.

The young couple got up early the next morning before their hosts had awakened. On a table near the front door, they left an envelope with some money in it for the room. Then they went on to the next town. They stopped at a restaurant and had breakfast. When they told the owner where they had stayed, he was shocked. "That can't be", he said. "That house burned to the ground ten years ago, the old man and woman who lived there died in the fire."The young couple could not believe it. So they went back to the house. Only now there was no house. All they found was a burned-out shell.

They stood staring at the ruins trying to understand what had happened.Then the woman started screaming! In the rubble was a badly burned table; on the table was the envelope they had left there that morning!

Rumors of many died girls run, run rumors of monsters at night, run rumors... It hears a roar, something guttural. Its heart begins to bark strongly. A shade in the dark sees move. It moans scared. Her breathing becomes faster. Their eyes escuecen, have filled to him of blood injected by their fear. Then in front she sees two red points. A cloud moves leaving sun rays them that bounce in the moon illuminate the street. Then it sees it, the red points are the pupils of a high man. It smiles sadistically letting glimpse sharpened eyeteeth. The girl screams terrified and catch of the panic. The monster amuses itself with the terror of the girl.

The Gentleman at night died terrified. It was his weapon against if same, instilled the terror in his victim who untied the fury that killed it. And before dying he knew... the terror.

The Ghost was living in my brother’s room!!
I have start by telling all of you that when somebody who used to live in the same place leaves the house for any reason, their ghost or spirit or whatever you want to call it stays in that place, just for fun or just only for taking care of that place until that person comes back…

I live in my same house for about 20 years, my house is nice, clean, tidy, cozy and warm but anywise I always used to live with my dad, mom and brother it was nice to have all the family together but one day my brother received a scholarship to study in Mexico, it was a nice opportunity for him so he had to go…

Everyone in my house were very sad even the dog missed him very much, my brother was always very liveliness and make everyone around him fell and be happy, but it had been five days since he left and my mom and I start feeling weird stuff, like doors open, clothes and shoes in different places where they were originally placed, the lights room turning on and off by itself, strange winds going through the room, the TV turning on and off, etc, etc, etc…
My mom and I decided to sleep there, only for one night to see what happen, I remember that night we prayed a lot and we were very scared, we laid down and hug very, very strong each other but as it is obvious neither of us could fall sleep. Nothing happened during the entire night but only a little note was sitting down on the table near the corner, it said “Don’t be afraid of me, and don’t be scared, I am not here to hurt you, scared you or make you unhappy, I am only here to take care of this place, I miss my house and all you very much…”

Immediately we took the phone, called my brother and he was o.k. he never did of felt anything strange, since that time we knew somehow he was in two places at the same time, studying in Mexico and here in Cuenca with his family…

A real nightmare

A long time ago there was a family who had their house in the middle of the field. The family’s house had two floors. They lived upstairs, and downstairs there were two rooms. In the first room the family kept their harvests. In the second room there were a bed and a chair and the tools that they used to harvest. Juan was one of the sons of the family. He liked a lot to go every night to the parties and after that he liked to stay with his friends and drink alcohol. One day his mother told him that she did not want to see him again in the parties and if he went out to a party again, she was going to close all the doors of the second floor of the house and he was going to look for a place where he could sleep outside.
Anyway, Juan did not care about his mother’s warning and that night, he escaped from his house and went again with his friends to drink. When he was drunk, he felt a little concerned about what his mother told him, so he decided to get back to his home. In fact, he found all the doors closed, only the downstairs room where the bed was and the chair, was open. Juan got in this room and closed the door but the door’s locker was damage so, he put the chair against the door to get that the wind did not push the door. After that he turned off the light and went to sleep. Being sleeping, he felt cold and woke up and surprised he found the light on, the door open and the chair was fell on the floor. He stands up and thought that he was too drunk and he had forgotten to close the door and turn off the light, so he close the door with the chair and turn off the light, again. He sleeps again but a strong noise made that he scared wakes up. In this time, he found again the light on, the chair fell and the door open. Now he was sure about he had closed the door and turn off the light so, he thinks that the wind could open the door. He close and turn off the light and comes back to the bed. While he was sleeping he began to dream in a man that pushes the door from outside, threw the chair, turns on the light, and tells Juan :"I am going to take you with me to the hell if you like so much to celebrate". Immediately, the man takes Juan over his shoulders and both of them began to fight. Juan could escape from the man’s arms but the mysterious man hurt him in the chest with his nails. Juan woke up screaming and afraid saw the scene around him, the chair was fall again, the light was on, the door was totally open and his bed had been moved next to the door. He looked down and saw his chest bleeding with wounds in the form of claws.

The prist without head


this history is teling that was a curite of some provincial parish and in one of his excursions he had problems because the people saw him stoling some glases, those glases was very important for then. Myth surely conceived in times of the Inquisition.

He or She says the tradition that one appears to the men and women that trasnochaban under a leafy tree in which it is possible to see a great door of a temple.

Attracted and loaded with sins the person hears attentivly but at the moment of the consecration on having faced the consequences the priest meets him without head and this one soaking blood between his hands.
Hoter histories are tellig in a different way.
An occasion, on having been praying, felt a shiver in all his(her,your) body. He(she) believed that probably someone more had remained to praying. Already it was a bit late and the temple had remained alone.
Without bearing in mind his(her,your) shiver it(he,she) continued praying with more devotion. He was sure that all his(her,your) requests would be listened, since the Master of the Garden had realized infinity of miracles it was verified by the hundreds of golden adornments that were covering his(her,your) mantle it(he,she) hangs.Again he(she) listened to the same noise, it(he,she) seemed to come from the sacristy.
This woke curiosity up and went to appear.
On having come to this site(place), his(her,your) dread disappeared since it(he,she) saw the feet of that person and observed a black soutane, thought that he was the local priest.
It(He,She) approached a bit more and on having raised the sight one took a disagreeable surprise that him(her) put the hair of top, before his(her,your) eyes this a monk but it(he,she) did not have head.

Rich Dad, Poor Dad



All we almost learn on the money thanks to our parents. What can say in this sense a poor father to him to their son? Very simple: "it continues in the school and it studies very hard". At first sight, this seems a sensible answer; but the problem is in which the schools do not prepare to fight with the subjects related to the money. To graduate with excellent qualifications does not assure a knowledge or a successful performance in which to the handling of the money it talks about. At the most, the young person graduates with a poor man mentality. By such reason, it is important to break with certain myths that surround to the world of the finances. And, for such aim, it is important as much to understand how they work, like assuming one more a more positive attitude towards the same ones. This it is the knowledge that the rich parents give their children.

The book “The Power is within You” or “El Poder esta dentro de Ti” written by Louise L. Hay is a very pleasant book to read and it helps us to see the world and our lives in many different helpful ways.

Romeo and Juliet "Love and hate"



ROMEO AND JULIET
"LOVE AND HATE"

It was written by Shakespear. Romeo and Juliet are both had been considered as the most famous lovers around the world.
It is a tragic drama about young lovers against their own families problems. It is a book that you could feel it and you could also gave it your own interpretation. It is a legend characterized by an eternal symbol of love. Two young lovers had to died to show how was the real love because their families prefer to fight beside to understand what was going on with their sons. I believe that the love is something that could not have just one meaning because it could be expressed in different ways.
However,this legend could bring us how two teenagers fight against everybody to be together. I almost cry when I read it because is I could not imagine to see a person that I love died.
I believe that sometimes in ours life we started to value our life when something wrong made us react. Same happened in Romeo and Juliet legend because after they died their families understood that their figth was not necessary and finally it ends.But they already lost their sons, so their peace had an expensive price.
We have to value each moment in our life because if we live with anger or to bear a grudge, we could not see how wonderful the life is.

Global warming





Global warming is the increasing the temperature.





Increasing global temperature will cause sea level to rease, and is expected to increase the intensity of extreme weather events and to change the amount and pattern of precipitation. Other effects of global warming include changes in agricultural yields, trade routes, glacier retreat, species extinctions and increases in the ranges of disease vectors.




global warming is being won are misleading. In many ways, the struggle has only just begun - both on scientific and political fronts - while for many developing countries, dealing with its potentially disastrous impact is becoming increasingly urgent.

future climata change.The amount and speed of future climate change will ultimately depend on:
Whether greenhouse gases and aerosol concentrations increase, stay the same or decrease.
How strongly features of the climate temperature, precipitation and sea level respond to changes in greenhouse gas and aerosol concentrations.
How much the climate varies as a result of natural influences from volcanic activity and changes in the sun ’s intensity and its internal variability referring to random changes in the circulation of the atmosphere and oceans.




The incredible story of a man that survived in the sea


Gabriel García Márquez is the author of this fascinating story. The book is called "El Relato de un Náufrago" and it is about a ship that sank in the Caribbean and how the only man who survived, spent 10 days by himself in the sea. The man's name was Luis Alejandro Velasco and when he went home after fighting with lots of difficulties, he told his story to the author of this book.

It's not a very long or complicated book; I read it when I was in high shcool and I really liked it. What I like the most about this story is that García Márquez describes perfectly the man's situation in the sea. The author gives all the details about the character's surroundings and limitations.

He describes carefully how this desperate man saw how his mates drown and he couldn't do anything about it. One part that amazed me was that, at one point, Luis was very hungry and he had to catch a seagull but he couldn't eat it. Then he had to confront the sharks because of the seagull's blood on the boat and a fish he could catch but they got it. The sun was another enemy of Luis, it was really suffocating and burning his skin at all times.

I like García Márquez a lot because of his interesting way of writing and how he puts the reader literally inside the character's world. When I read it I could almost feel the hunger, loneliness and thirst Luis felt, it is a great book and I strongly recommend it.
