Carnival and costumbes I live in a city where the carnival is one of the most important events of the year. During that week many people come from all over the world to see our festival. All the people use costumes, masks, paints and everthing that they find beacuse there are only two rules: to disguise like their characters and have fun. All the week you can find groups of persons (amateurs or professionals) singing in the streets with guitars and drums. Professionals sing in the theatre and they compete each year for to be the best. The last year the winners were a group disguised of chameleons.

Extract from The hobbit "Revenge!" the dragon said, and the light of his eyes shined the whole hall from floor to ceiling. "Revenge! The king under the montain has died, where are descendant who are looking for revenge? Girion, Lord of Valley, has died, and I ate his people like a wolf hidden between sheeps, where are the sons of his sons who has the brave to come here? I kill where I want and no one can stop me. I fighted against old warriors and now there isn't anyone like me. At that time I was young and sweet but now I and old and strong! Strong, strong, thief in the shadows! " he screamed and looked at Bilbo with evilness "My armor is like ten shields, my teeth are swords, my claws are lances, my tail is a lightning, my wings are a huracan and my breath is death!"

Amnesia Tonight I have watched a live concert. My friend is the bassist of a band called 'Amnesia' and tonight they have come to this city so I thought that it would be a good oportunity to watch them. I already had listened their music in Youtube before (you can do it if you search 'Somos amnesia') but live concert are always better. Although the pub was very small it had good acoustic instalation so we can enjoyed the music without any problem. The concert was really nice: the sound was great, they played lot of songs,the public was enthusiastic, etc. And something important: they demostrated that they have worked a lot in this proyect. Besides the concert, the night was nice because I saw some friends that I hadn't seen for a long time. It have been a good begining for my Christmas's holidays.

Rubik's cube Some months ago I saw a Rubik's cube in a shop window when I was walking in the street. I love puzzles and that kind of games so I decided to buy one. When I arrived at home I opened the package and I saw that there were some papers with solutions and tricks. I thought that it couldn't be funny if I had the solutions so I broke the papers. For two or three months I was trying to resolve the Rubik's cube without sucessfull. However, I resolved whole cube except the last four corners. It was really annoying to have the final solution so close and so far at the same time. I was losing the interest slowly and I left behind the cube. This morning I saw the cube in the closet and I felt the necessity to complete it, whatever was the price. I have been watching some videos and now I know how to do it. I don't feel very proud about it but I think that there wasn't another way.

Why I am learning languages When I was a child, my parents asked me if I wanted to learn other languages but I always refused it. I was happy speaking Spanish and I didn't know how useful it could be. In school I learned some English and French but it wasn't a good experience. We were 30-35 students in each class and that was a chaos! You couldn't learn to read or to speak correctly in those conditions. When I entered in the university I left my languages studies. For five years I didn't study anything about it and I forgot lot of things. That wasn't a good decision. But few mounths ago I decided to return my studies. I decided to study English because it is a wonderful language. It sounds really nice, the accent is very beautiful and it isn't very difficult. It is the most valueted language if you want to find a job in Spain and it is very helpful if you want to travel to another european countries. Althought I love the French sound (it looks like melody), I will not return my studies about it. There is another language which make me feel love: Portuguese. I found out it recently and I felt in love. Portuguese is very similar to Spanish and it make it easy. Portugal is very close to Spain so I think that is a good idea. Probably today or tomorrow I will write my first notebook in Portuguese.

The weather in my city Hello everyone! Today I am going to talk about the weather of my region. I live in a small city in the south of Spain, nearby of the sea. Winter is rather cold and it's usual to have cloudy days, but it doesn't rain a lot. In the whole winter we only have a few days stormy. Although the wind is very wet and cold (because we are close to the sea), the degrees are too high to see ice or frozen things. I think the winter is mild. Spring is a really nice period. The cloudy days go away and it begin the sunny days, the degrees grow up slowly and you can leave on your closet the gloves and scarfs. Summer is in the thin line between love and hate. The degrees are very high and everyday is sunny. The wind change and now it is very warm. You can go everyday to the beach or swimming pools and to have funny moments but if you want to walk for the streets under the sun then prepare yourself, it is very hard. Autumn is the adverse spring. The cloudy days come back again and with them, the cold return slowly. It is a sad and melancoly period.

Describing a film How I said in my last notebook, I recently have watched the new Disney film 'Moana' and I will describe it here. (alert! it contain spoiler) Long time ago, the goddess 'Te Fiti' created life and raise island with the power of her stone. Attracted for the power, some warriors wanted to steal it and one of them got it, the demigod Maui. He stole the stone and the shadow became free, destrying slowly each island of the ocean. The main character Moana is a girl who is living in one of that islands. She love the ocean but her parents don't allow her to surf it. Her grandmother help her to find an answer for his problem and she find out that her ancestors were voyagers and the ocean choosen her for to realize a great mission: She must find and obligate to Maui to return the stone back. With some luck and the help of the ocean, she find Maui and both live adventures (They fight against coconuts, they search the Maui's weapon, etc). Finally, they arrive to the island where the stone was stolen. A great volcanic boss defend it and they must cooperate for to defeit it. While Maui fight against the boss, Moana enter inside the island and she find out that the volcanic boss is Te Fiti, who became in the boss when the stone was stolen. Moana return back the stone to Te Fiti and she became a goddness again, killing the shadows and healing the damaged islands.

Moana Yesterday I went with my friends to the cinema and we watched the new Disney movie 'Moana'. Although I am 23 years old, I am a huge fan of this kind of movies. I think that I still have a part of a child inside me and I feel proud about it. The movie was nice and I left the cinema very happy. I think the latest Disney movies are changing and they don't follow the same formula as the old ones and I like it! They don't create unnecessary romance and the main character can be a really strong self-sufficient woman. This is very important because the children learn a lot with this movies. The movie has a great visual quality: the movements of the waves, the colors of the vegetation.. It was amazing! We mustn't forgot the funny moments and the beautiful songs. In general, I think it is a good movie and if you want to spend a good time with your friends or your family then you should go to watch it! ___________________________________________________________ I have a question: what is the different between 'movie' and 'film'?
