Growing as..

To my mind, parents and teachers are raising and educating boys and girls in the right way nowadays.
From nursery school to higher education I have found great teachers and all of them were hard-working people. They gave me a sound knowledge with all their enthusiasm, if you attended all the lectures, you could pass the exams without problem.
Usually, teachers help you when they see that you stay a little late with the lesson. Perhaps there are many things to change in Spanish education but I think that is not the fault of teachers if not the education system imposed. It is the same which compares us to other countries such as Finland (Spain being below).
My university makes an effort and make use of teaching elementary students to create support groups for underprivileged children. This work makes them grow as a person and as future teachers and they do it with love and dedication. Two of my roommates are helping in these groups.
Personally speaking, the education given by our parents and teachers is the best they can give us in most cases and this is what will make you grow as a person and be what you want.

Xmas ads - Intro/Conclusion

Dolls, stuffed animals, video games, christmas treats ... Christmas is coming and with it an advertising boom. Thousands of ads invade our screens  making us ,unconsciously, passive consumers basically because the ads are repeated and repeated until they fall on our heads. Good and effective way to wash our brains, right
                                                           
In conclusion, there is a huge advertising impact and it should be controlled because it begins to abuse, especially in these important dates. A good ad hits more when you see it a few times, not all the time and ads should be better administered in time in which they appear, because nowadays we live in an era in which we put more ads than television programs.

Biffy Clyro

A few days ago I discovered this band that had both recommended me some friends and I have to say that I fell in love.
The Scottish band will not let indifferent with his lyrics and the music accompanies perfectly, creating an awesome set.

                                       

I invite you to listen to Biffy Clyro as my firend Gabriel did, and if you can, try to go to a concert. I leave you one song that I love. Enjoy! :)

Family

To my mind, the family is what gives you life even if it is something that is not chosen and comes default. As something obligatory for everyone, the family becomes a lottery. You can take very well with your blood relatives or very bad. As a rule, the family is not always a close-knit family, there are happy moments but difficult too.
In my case, I have been very lucky with my family, they are funny but serious at the same time, a good combination. I have very good relationship with my close relatives but I have less relationship with my distant relatives. I can say I have got an extended family; I have got ten uncles and aunts, thirteen cousins, two grandparents, two parents and a brother.  
My most admired family member is my grandmother Josefa. She has worked since she was small and she has grown in a dysfunctional family. She is a short dumpy woman with a big heart. I really love her although sometimes our opinions collide.
The most family member I look like is my cousin Juan. We have fair hair and an upturned noseand both we have a youthful appearance although he already has twenty-three years old. He is studying at university as her sister and their parents got divorce seven years ago.
 I would like to be more with my family and I hope to continue this relationship with them.

Práctica 1 corregida

Vegetables are one of my favorite kind of food and I eat them almost every day. As a rule, young people hate vegetables and they don´t eat anything related to this, but it is not my case. I prefer to eat artichoke with onions or another vegetable rather than meat or fish. Despite this, I eat everything because that is what we need. I think vegetables and fruits are better than chocolate or candies. Also, vegetables are healthier. I really love to eat beans, cauliflower or carrots. There is something that I can´t stand and that is the vegetable soup, but it is the only thing. Now in Murcia I buy a lot of vegetables for dinner like sparagus, broccoli or mushrooms. I think this is the best way to be healthy and keep us well fed.

Living in a big city (advantages and disadvantages)

One of the new things about this course has been moving to a new house in a big city, Murcia, and this fact makes me realize all the big changes  with my city. On the one hand, being in this city makes you closer to everything. If you want, you can go through the city centre to buy, eat, do exercise, sign up for courses... In addition, everything is connected so you don't have to walk around the city to get to the other side, there are a lot of buses and a tram. If you're here and you're going to college you don't have to move away, so you spend less money and less time on the train. On the other hand, if you live in a big city there are more people so when are you going to the cinema or to buy there are many more people. Also, in the case in which you drive, there is much more traffic. There are more people also there are more noises and more pollution. Despite the disadvantages, I do still preferring to live in a big city because I think that there are many more facilities.
