WHAT'S YOUR NUMBER?

What's your number? is a romantic comedy film which I saw in my house last week, is called Dime con cuántos in Spanish. The main character is a girl who were with 20 boys in her life and her sister will get married so the main character, Ally, needs a boy who comes with her to the wedding. She lost her job so now she's living in a small flat. She wants to meet all the boys she was with because she doesn't want 21 in her list of boys... so she's trying to be in love with all the boys she was with.

Her neighbor, Colin, doesn't want to have a relationship with a woman, he only wants a girl for a night. Ally wants Colin to help her to find all the boys she was with, and then they start a strong friendship. She met all the boys but she can't fall in love with them because she's in love with Colin.

She changes his life, now he wants a relationship with a girl, with her... and she has a boy who loves her and complements her. I really like to story, I'm in love with this movie righ now, I think is one of my favorites romantic movies.

HUMOR DISCUSSION

Humor is a type of life. In my opinion, humor given us a different vision about the world, because if you don’t have humor in your life I think you can’t be happy without a little bit of humor.

First of all, humor is related to happiness smiles or some emotions like this. Moreover the people in general smile more than 100 times a day, that’s more that maybe the people get angry one or three times a day. So that’s a percentage much better, because they are calm and relaxed.

To sum up, humor is necessary in our lives, because you can enjoy your days or you can be better day by day.

STRESS BEFORE TESTS

I did two extras but I need three to have better mark so I'm going to talk a little about my next week.

I'm so stressed because I have a lot of important tests.

On monday, I have a business organization test (I don't know if it's the name in english of the subject) and I need a good mark because I flunked the last test.

On tuesday, history test. I'm so scary because it's a difficult test because are four chapters.

I also have a reading & listening test of english but I'm not scary about it. But on friday I have a greek test and it's really difficult, because it's about translation.

Well, batxillerat is more difficult than I thought but I want to pass the course and with a good mark because I want to study in the university of Barcelona.

Ok, I finished with all the entries for the first term, now I have to study hard for the tests. Wish me luck!

Good afternoon Lourdes!

I’m Maria Roig, I’m 16 yet, but in only one month I will be 17. I think I’m so quiet, but only with the persons who I don’t usually speak, like the teachers or somebody who only talks with me in the school; I think with my friends I’m too chatty because I trust them, so I’m very active in the conversations or whatever, but obviously I’m not a troublemaker person. I never cut classes, because I think it’s disrespect to the teacher and for my mates.

One of my hobbies is volleyball, because I have practised this sport since I was young. This afternoon I’ve got one trainning and I’m the coach of the “veterans” and “Sèniors B” team. I do that, because I like so much this sport, if I don’t like I don’t do that.

Another hobby which I love is stay in my house, with my friends, under the trees and listens to music when we feel relaxed in the grass. That’s so good, because we relaxed so much that afternoons of summer, because in winter it’s so cold and we can’t go out of the house.

That’s a little explication of my life in three paragraphs.
