ENGLISH STORY.

These days when our english teacher was absent, we have been reading some stories and we have been working in groups.

The story I like the most is The Black Cat one.

It's about a man who loved animals and had a lot of them, but little by little he became an alcoholic and started to be very violent with his pets.
His favourite one was a black cat called Pluto. He used to spend most of his time with it, but when he drank too much he hurt it until he definetelly killed it. He started missingbhis cat so he take an other one when he was in a bar one day. But that cat brought a lot of problems between the man and his wife and he killed the women trying to kill the cat when he was so drank. The alcoholic man hid his wife's body behind the walls and the police caught him because the cat misteriously was with the woman.
That's the reason why the man is in prison telling us this story.

I liked this chapter of the book because we read it last year in spanish lesons and we learned lot of things about it. It's the most misterious story in the book from.my point of view and I think that some things of the story are related to nowdays culture, such as the black cats are suposed to bring us bad luck.

Finally, I think that it has been a good oportunity to work in groups because every member of the group has had to do a different thing so we have worked very hard.

My special ability.

At the very beginning I thought I didn't have any special ability untilI realisedI can lick my elbow.

I can touch my elbow with the tip of my tongue and you're supposed to be very flexible and only just a few people can do it.

I realised I could do it one day, when someone mentioned that it was impossible to do that and everybody started trying it without any results.

When they saw that I could do it, they started asking some questions such as: "How can you do it?" "I can´t believe it" they said. They all were very surprised!

I don't really think that's a useful ability, but it's a way to show people that there's nothing impossible.

It's me licking my elbow.

Images and music activity.

We have done an activity describing images that are related with the song we have chosen. 

First we described some images, that were the ones that are below.Each one is romantic and and have a relation with love or when somebady is sad because he/she is not with the person he/she love.

Then we made and activity with the lyrics of the song. They were supposed to fill in the gaps, and then we gave the solutions to them.

Thanksgiving day.

I want to thank all the people who are always by my side when I need them.

Friends and family are the most important thing I have in my life, because they are always there taking care of me, listening to me when I have problems, or making me feeling well when I am sad.

But friends come and go all the moment and family is always going to be there with you, so although you have lots of arguments with them, you have to know how to appreciate them and how to help them, doing housework, listening them, or even playing sometimes with your brothers.

So thanks to everybody who takes part in my day a day life although sometimes I am a little bit insoportable.

SCARY STORY

this is our scary story. we have been working on that in some english clases.

Maria Gonzalez, Maria Garcia, Marta Calero and Miren Ruiz.

Hoy me dispongo a dejar todos mis miedos de lado, porque, ¿para qué sirven? ¿para frenarte? ¿para perder oportunidades? Pues hoy yo ya no estoy dispuesta a que me acompañen, no quiero ser más negativa, no quiero ni que me frenen respecto a mis objetivos, ni que me hagan perder más oportunidades. 
Que lo que hay que hacer es saber afrontar todo lo que venga con una pequeña sonrisa y sin ocultarnos tras un telón que esconde una historia pesimista, y si nos acompaña alguna vez un miedo, que sea el de perder aquello que hemos conseguido.

Fingir que no duele, duele el doble.

Estoy harta, ¿sabes? Harta ya de esta puta rutina, de que seas en lo primero que pienso cuando me levanto, y mi última sonrisa antes de irme a dormir. De sentir tanto, y en cambio recibir tan poco, de que el tiempo pase y tu sigas sin darte cuenta de que te quiero aquí, conmigo. Harta de admirar tu puta sonrisa, pero que sin embargo yo no sea el motivo de ella, de defenderte a las espaldas, de fingir falsas sonrisas, y de imaginar cosas que no sé si algún día ocurrirán. Y no sé por qué, pero una cosa no quita a la otra, y por mucho que te odie a tí y a las tres putas que se nos interponen, te quiero, joder, te quiero como nadie nunca lo va a hacer.
