Last Friday night..


THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY! 


Cheers🍸

The best day of the week is defently F R I D A Y 

It is that day where you can just relax and be with your friends and family; Normally straight after school I go directly to my friend Caspin's house and have some lunch; in the afternoon all eight of us meet up and we go to do something fun like going to anyone place to have a drink or just having a walk with another friends. 

Besides I especially love Friday because I see my friends who live in Gerona and I can't see they at week. The last but not less important reason it's because I can go partying with the girls, we always have so much fun when we go out! We love to dance and to have a good time, that's why this day ot the week is my favourite. I always hate having wait the hole week for it to be Weekend.

There is a Katy Perry's video related with Fridays

NEWS 1: Old American woman sees the ocean for the first time

This news is by far one of the best reactions we’ve ever seen. 100-year-old Ruby Holt spent her whole life rural Tennessee on a farm picking cotton and raising her children. She never had the time or money to see the ocean, but all this changed just shy of her 101st birthday.
Thanks to Ruby’s assisted living center and an organization that grants wishes to the elderly, she was able to make the trip to the Gulf of Mexico and experience the ocean for the first time in her very long life.  “I’ve heard people talk about it and how wonderful it was and wanted to see it, but I never had the opportunity to do so” Ruby said.

The 400 mile trip to the Gulf Coast in Alabama was the furthest Ruby had ever been from her home in Tennessee. She couldn’t have summed up the experience better “we don’t have anything like this in Giles County”, said Ruby. This just goes to prove you’re never to old to do something new.

OPINION
This news is very touching because believe that this 101 woman sees the ocean, a normally think for me, for the first time and she would see it because she was working in a cotton farm and raising her children, is very remarkable! Actually, every day is a new day and it does not matter how are you, never is too late for see, feel and try out new emotions.

Self evaluation

Few weeks ago Jana, Mar and Me made an oral presentation about Modern Family

Language 20%  We learned a lot of new words relationed with humor  15% 

Presentation 10% we made a nice prezi but I think we could put in some videos of Modern Family. 5%

Body language and eye contact 10% In this aspect I'm happy because another years I was very nervous but this year I was more serene. Althought I'm not perfect and I forgot some sentence 7%

Structure 10% It was well organized because firstly we speack about the serie in general but later we speak about each one 5%

Pronuntation 10% In my point of view I need to improve a little bit my pronuntation but it's not too wrong 5%

Content 40% It was very complete, with information from different sites and stuff 30%

I think, it was good but a little bit short without some videos.. that's the fail

Rude

Probably you heard it, it's a new single RUDE by Magics. I'm in love with this since it was publishing because it's an light-hearted song with a playful melody.





The song tells the sad history of a  man who unsuccessfully asks his girlfriend's parents for her hand in marriage but they don't give him because they don't allow him. The guy seems to be crying because the woman of his dream's father couldn't give them his blessing. For one thing, ask for someone's daughter's hand in marriage is complicated but actually he is just trying to be diplomatic as he can.


The lyrics would mention differents thoughts. It can be interpreted with another ways to see it but in my opinion we can imagine a black man who loves his white girlfriend and who feels the same. However, the girl's father is biased to not approve of a black man marrying a white woman. Likely the girl's father is more inclined to think that colored people are less than white, a common belief that is even here today. I imagine this when in the song appears "Don't you know I'm human,too? he try to contends that it's not well. 

Lyrics

Saturday morning jumped out of bed And put on my best suitGot in my car and raced like a jetAll the way to youKnocked on your door with heart in my handTo ask you a questionBecause I know that you're an old fashioned man
Say yes, say yes, because I need to know
You say I'll never get your blessing 
Till the day I die
Tough luck my friend 
But the answer is no
Don't you know I'm human too?
Why you got to be so rude?
I'm going to marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Yeah, no matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we'll be a family
You leave no choice
I can't live without her
Love me or hate me 
We will be boys standing at that altar
Or we will run away
To another galaxy, you know
You know she's in love with me
She will go anywhere I go
Say yes, say yes, because I need to know
You say I'll never get your blessing 
Till the day I die
Tough luck my friend 
Because the answer is still no
Don't you know I'm human too?
Why you got to be so rude?
I'm going to marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
No matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we'll be a family
Say yes, say yes, because I need to know
You say I'll never get your blessing 
Till the day I die
Tough luck my friend 
But no still means no
Don't you know I'm human too?
Why you got to be so rude?
I'm going to marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
No matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we'll be a family
Why you got to be so rude?
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Why you got to be so rude?
Why you got to be so rude?
I hate to do this
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Why you got to be so rude?
Why you got to be so rude?
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Why you got to be so rude?
Why you got to be so rude?

Sábado por la mañana, salté de la cama 
y me puse mi mejor traje.
Me monté en mi coche y conduje como un cohete,
todo el camino hasta ti.
Toqué a tu puerta con el corazón en un puño (en la mano),
para hacerte una pregunta,
porque sé que eres un hombre chapado a la antigua.

¿Puedo tener a tu hija para el resto de mi vida?
Di que sí, di que sí, porque necesito saberlo.
Dices que nunca tendré tu bendición,
hasta el día que me muera.
Mala suerte amigo mío,
pero la respuesta es "no".

¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero?
¿No sabes que yo también soy humano?
¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero? 
De todas formas, voy a casarme con ella,
me casaré con esa chica,
de cualquier forma, me casaré con ella,
me casaré con esa chica,
sí, no importa lo que tú digas,
me casaré con esa chica,
y seremos una familia.

¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero?
Odio hacer esto,
no me dejas elección,
no puedo vivir sin ella,
quiéreme u ódiame.
Seremos muchachos en pie sobre ese altar,
o nos fugaremos
a otra galaxia, ya sabes,
ya sabes que ella está enamorada de mí,
irá a cualquier sitio al que yo vaya.

¿Puedo tener a tu hija para el resto de mi vida?
Di que sí, di que sí, porque necesito saberlo.
Dices que nunca tendré tu bendición,
hasta el día que me muera.
Mala suerte amigo mío,
porque la respuesta sigue siendo "no".

¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero?
¿No sabes que yo también soy humano?
¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero? 
De todas formas, voy a casarme con ella,
me casaré con esa chica,
de cualquier forma, me casaré con ella,
me casaré con esa chica,
sí, no importa lo que tú digas,
me casaré con esa chica,
y seremos una familia.

¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero?
¿Puedo tener a tu hija para el resto de mi vida?
Di que sí, di que sí, porque necesito saberlo.
Dices que nunca tendré tu bendición,
hasta el día que me muera.
Mala suerte amigo mío,
pero "no", significa "no".

¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero?
¿No sabes que yo también soy humano?
¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero? 
De todas formas, voy a casarme con ella,
me casaré con esa chica,
de cualquier forma, me casaré con ella,
me casaré con esa chica,
sí, no importa lo que tú digas,
me casaré con esa chica,
y seremos una familia.

¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero?


¿Por qué tienes que ser tan grosero?

Humor

Life is too short, so take it easy!

Without humor, life would be boring and everybody would be angry and stressed. 
It's essential in life to be happy and get fun. Moreover, a good way to enjoy all the aspects it's with humour, bacause it's abstract and always is there, in the aire, waiting to make happy the society.
Obviously not all the people have the hability to get fun with others but in my point of view it's vital to get a healthy life. 

In short, humor makes us happier

Gap year

Today I'm going to write about gap years as two of my best friends are doing one and I would love to do one as well in a near future. My friend Noa is in Australia working as an Aupair and my friend Julia is in London studying English. They both are enjoying their stay so much and they are really happy out there. 

I can imagine myself doing a gap year very well. Julia and Noa are doing their gap year before university but I think I'm going to do it after having my degree. I really like travelling but I don't know if I would be able to stay so much time away from my friends and family. I would love to go to the United States, England, Argentina or New Zealand I know that almost all universities have programs to study half or one year abroad and I'm pretty sure that I will apply for one of those programs. 

In my opinion, it's such a good way to learn a new language, new cultures and have so many new experiences. You are completely on your own thousand of kilometers away from your comfort zone and that's not that easy at it seems. It's a very big step.

My goals


Hello, as you know my name is Laura Saus, I live in Castelló d’Empúries, I'm 17 and I’m studying 2n BAT at Ins Castelló d’Empúries.


This year I want to focus on my studies, work hard and this way earn good grades, put my best effort to do what I will want.


Although I don’t know what I’ll be yet, my long-term goal is living in Girona and go to the university UdG. My short-term goal is my research project, obviously and I want to get rid of that burden considering that this year goes too fast and there are many things to learn!

Currently studies are basic to have a successful job with a good salary and conditions too and now, more than ever, I will not drop out of school and I will keep going!

"Every single one of you has something to offer and you have a responsibility to discover what it is”. Obama said this idea in his speech in  2010 and I feel very identified with this concept because I don’t know what I’ll study next year yet and I will try to discover it because it’s a big decision.
