My decision, Bye ESO

Well, I don't know what I want in my future and what I do in this moment. Finally, I was 15 and I will pass to baccalaureate ("bachillerato") and I don't know with accuracy what do. I love languages and art, history, so humanistic... But what I want study ispsychology... So I need a scientific base. It's very hard for me, I think with a humanistic I can study psychology, but no. And now I will think and reflect about my future and what I want in this moment.

I have been thinking and I think I will make a "Humanistic school". But, why? Why I'm sure of it? Really, I don't know, and this makes me scared. Well, one day I'm in a Latin class, with my teacher, Loreto, and then I will decide. At this moment I feel part of this class, I feel in my place or in my "home".I really want to do.

I will do humanities or maybe social, but I don't want to come into a science class and think: What do I do here? So I'm fine at home... :)

                                                      

                                                      And you? What will you do?

The Duomo was possible to see all Florence. It was really the best views of the city.


At lunch time we bought a pizza and we had eaten it in a restaurant.

"Heimlich manoeuvre"

The Heimlich manoeuvre was invented by Henry Heimlich. The manoeuvre is a "first-aid procedure". You press on abdomen of the person, and then you remove something from that person is windpipe when he is choking.
Doctor Heimlich is 96 years old now. He knows his manoeuvre, but he never used. Until now, 2th of June, 2016 Doctor Heimlich save a woman at the senior centre in Ohio where they live. He assures that save a life of the women was the wonderful feeling that he feel in his life.

"I sort of felt wonderful about it, just having saved that girl. I knew it was working all over the world. And I just felt a satisfaction."

"Woman hits a police car"

In 30th of May, 2016, a women hits a police car. She is 23 years old, and now maybe go to the prison for 43 years, for injured three people in this madness... Kavina Freeman from Milwaukee is accused of "reckless endangerment", use os a weapon and leave the scene.

Kavina Freeman don't have a driving license or an insurance. The police stop her and then she leave with the police car. She injures three people, two of them policemen, and the other is her mother (the girl's mother is in the car with her).

"Love and other drugs"

Title: Love and other drugs.

I think this film is very spontaneous, amusing and amasing. It beging like a comedy but really what happens it's very important in their lives...

Maggie (Hathaway) is an alluring free spirit who won't let anyone - or anything - tie her down. But she meets her match in Jamie (Gyllenhaal), whose relentless and nearly infallible charm serve him well with the ladies and in the cutthroat world of pharmaceutical sales. Maggie and Jamie's evolving relationship takes them both by surprise, as they find themselves under the influence of the ultimate drug: love.
- Written by Twentieth Century Fox

In this movie I like the way the characters fall in love, totally against, one day they realize that she loves him, and he loves her. It's very spontaneous and funny! You don't suffer seeing the film, so everything occurs in the perfect moment and you enyoyed this. I really think that this is very important when you see a film. And at the end of the film you empathize with the illness of Maggie (parkinson). She is very strong but it is too hard to bear. They are very afraid, but they support each other. I feel the romanticism in the film. :)

I don't remember what I don't like in the film... So I can assure that I love everything in this film.


****WORTH SEEING, BRILLIANT.

Romeo and Juliet. Book or film?

Reflect about the film and the book. DIFFERENCES.

1-The first difference of the film and the book is the sitting. The original version, the book, is situated in Verona, city of Italy in 16th century. And then, the film takes place in Verona Beach, in United States of America, in 20th century.

The place of the film(Verona Beach)

2-In film, we can see a lot of metaphors and imagen, that explains to us the symbolism of original story of Romeo and Juliet. For example, the water appears when Juliet and Romeo are toghether for first time, it gives them privacy. We can see water in the love scenes, like in the simming pool, aquarium... So I think that makes peace in the scene and makes the atmosphere of love. And otherwise the fire represents the hatred between two families, the Montagues and Capulets. It makes the violence, aggressiveness and finally the tragedy, like the first scene in the petrol station, it is a fight between the servents of the two families. 

The day maybe is the point of realizing all. At the night happen the worst things, and then, on the day the people saw this things and they realize. The day is like a symbol of light, so that the truth comes to lights.

3- In the film everybody speaks in verse, but the character who emphasize the verse are Juliet, Romeo and Friar Laurence. 

The narrator is the "News". In the film they uses the news to explain in all moment what happens in general.



4-The Fancy Dress Party.

• Romeo dresses like a knight for this goodness and loyalty. He represents a good character, good person. 
• Juliet wears a costume of angel. It represents her purity and that she is naive.
• Tybalt is dressed with a costume of a devil. He is a demon so it wears a costume that represents his.
• Mercutio wears like a prostitute or like a girl. He wears a really weird dress... So he is very crazy and funny! 

5- In the film we can found a lot of elements. So to make the new version, basic elements have been changed.

• The swords are changed for the guns. But the name is the same "Sword" 
• The Prince are changed for the police man, and the noble families are changed fot rich families. It isn't a nobility, sp it is changed. 
• The horses for the cars. 
• And finally the plague is changed for a problem with the post office. 

6- Another differences of the classical version and the film version for me is the ambient or the environment of the city, the places... But even so I can see the same in the characters. So I think that it is a good film. But not like the book!!

Jason Mraz-I won't give up

I WON'T GIVE UP
NO PERDO L'ESPERANÇA


When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
There's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?


Quan et miro als ulls
És com veure el cel de nit
O una hermosa sortida de sol
Han aguantat tant
I just com ells, velles estrelles
Veig que has arribat tan lluny
Per estar allà on ets
Quina edat té la teva ànima?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

No perdo l'esperança en nosaltres
Encara que els cels es nublin
Et donaré tot el meu amor
Que encara busco

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

I quan necessitis el teu espai
Per navegar
Estaré aquí esperant pacientment
Per veure com estàs

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

Perquè fins i tot les estrelles es cremen
Algunes fins i tot cauen al terra
Tenim molt per aprendre
Déu sap que ens ho mereixem
No, no perdo l'esperança

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not
And who I am

No vull ser algú que abandona tan fàcilment
Estic aquí per quedar-me i deixar l'emprempta allà on pugui
Les nostres diferències ens ajuden a aprendre a fer servir
Les eines i regals que tenims, sí, tenim molt en joc
I al final, segueixes sent la meva amiga, almenys vam intentar
Que això funcionés, no ho vam deixar, no ens vam quedar
Vam haver d'aprendre com cedir sense que el món s'enfonsés
Vaig haver d'aprendre que tenia i què no era
I qui sóc

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
Still looking up.

No perdo l'esperança en nosaltres
Encara que els cels es nublin
Et donaré tot el meu amor
Que encara busco
Encara estic buscant

I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)

No perdo l'esperança en nosaltres (no, no la perdo)
Encara que els cels es nublin (sóc fort, m'estimen)
Et donaré tot el meu amor (estem vius, som estimats)
Que encara busco (i ens ho mereixem)

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

No perdo l'esperança en nosaltres
Encara que els cels es nublin
Et donaré tot el meu amor
Que encara busco

This is my favourite song. 

Shakespeare.

KEY WORDS.

#shakespeare400: This is a key word because now, this year we celebrate 400 years of his death.
He died on the  April 23rd of 1616.

In 1613, the original Globe Theatre burned to the ground when a cannon shot during a performance of Henry VIII ignited the thatched roof of the gallery. The company completed a new Globe on the foundations of its predecessor before Shakespeare's death. It continued operating until 1642, when the Puritans closed it down. Puritans razed the building two years later in 1644 to build tenements upon the premises. The Globe would remain a ghost for the next 352 years. 


As to the most important works of theater I could say that these are:

-Richard III
-A Midsummer Night's Dream 
-Much Ado About Nothing
-Hamlet
-Prince of Denmark 
-Othello 
-Moor of Venice 
-The King Lear
-Macbeth 
-The Tempest
Here I put the most important , then you have the other equally recognized. 

He also rode his work as a director, playwright and even actor.

-The Tempest
