- Yes, it is the same idea. People play pranks and practical jokes on each other. It has an interesting history too. Originally, the birth of Jesus was celebrated in April, and the calendar began in April. But some of the early Christians decided to move Christmas to December 25th so it was closer to the Pagan holiday of Saturnalia, and they changed the calendar so it began on January 1st. However, after it was changed, there were still people who stuck to the old ways and celebrated the New Year on April 1st. Those people were called the "April Fools" and mocked, and people played pranks on them.0 votedApril 2, 20140
- Dí mi sangre hoy y estoy muy cansado Buenas noches, esta es mi primera entrada aquí. Fuí al Red Cross hoy para donar mis plaquetas y plasma. He estado hacerlo para cinco años ya. Los empleados me llaman toda otra semana, así que yo vengo. Ellos ponen dos agujas en ambos de mis brazos mientras que me acuesta en una cama especial. Uno aguja toma el sangre de mi brazo derecho, y una máquina que gira divide las plaquetas desde el resto de sangre. Entonces, el sangre vuelva a trevés mi brazo izquierdo. Se tarda dos horas, pero puedo ver una película cuando yo donaría. Después, estoy tan náuseas que me siento como voy a desmayar. Sin embargo, me gusta donar porque estoy salvando vidas. Hoy dí el triple de la cantidad de sangre, así que siento enferma todavía pero estoy salvando tres personas. ¿Alguna vez has dado sangre?March 31, 201410
Families in my country
Introduction.
The goal of this report is to outline how families are in Spain, which activities the members of a family share, and how grandparents are involved in family life.
Spanish families.
Although Spanish society has modernised very much in the past few decades, the family is the most important institution in Spain. The members of a family eat together whenever it is possible and share their problems. Furthermore, they spend their holidays together.
Grandparents.
They play an important role in the family. It is very common that they take care of the children while their parents work. In a lot of families they economically support every member of their family who have problems.
Conclusions.
Spain have changed very much in the last years, but family remains one of the basis of Spanish society. Families share a lot of different things such as problems, meals or trips. Finally, grandparents are the key of many families and are involved in a wide range of family issues.0 votedMarch 30, 20142My country
Hello friends
I am going to write about my country. If you want to travel around my country, you need summer clothes, because in my country, it is hot. My advice is that you should visit south of Spain. I think it is a zone with good food, and differents cities to visit. There are many museums and sculptures. You can make beautiful photos. In my opinion, the most beautiful city is Seville. Seville has squares, short streets and a famous cathedral.
In North of Spain, you can visit Barcelona or different Basque cities. I think they are the most important. It may rain, so you need winter clothes.
If you prefer to visit cities which are near to sea, you can travel to Valencia. You can try valencian rice and see the Fallas. Fallas is the most important party in Valencia. People burn big monuments. These monuments are made with wood.
I live in Seville. If you want to visit Seville, write me an email, or private message and I will show my city.
Write soon,
Alberto.
