...Reflection of songs...

2007-03-26T07:20:00.002-05:00

I feel like seeing the scenery of a movie called The Man in Fire. Laura and Ray the main characters meet in the boat, and they end kissing. Also it reminds me like when I was in the Grammy awards India Catalina, the song they put when they had propagandas.

I feel in Egypt were I there is man who is playing guitar and we give them money. Also it makes me think like if I was in a presentation were two Mexicans are dancing like there Mexican way. Also it makes me think like if I woke up with a friend in the woods and we find a big and delicious buffet with spectacular dresses to put on. Also I feel like if I was in a becerrada and a lot of people drinking and dancing. I feel like dancing in my room, and really happy, like if that day something good happen. I feel really happy right now and I want to dance. Also it reminds me an episode of Tom and Jerry, were there are two Mexicans. Is a very enthusiastic song that it makes you think of very funny and good times you had past. The first idea I got to my mind with that song was dancing, because it a very good song to dance.

It reminds me of a man singing really inspirited. Also it reminds me of an Arabian. A man playing the piano in his house. It reminds me of a drunken man with a bear in his hand in the market drinking bear and that is really drunk. And that man is drinking. A man that gets lost in the forest and he is with his friend the tiger and they are singing for one day the find there way home. Two drunken animals are in the forest singing and lay in the grass.

...Teen Life Project....

2007-03-23T08:17:00.000-05:00

Well, I think teen life project was very interesting because we got to learn more about themes we wanted to know about, and what is happening in the world. Also because we get to learn more about the variety of things we need to get to work on.

Recall, teen life project is really interesting because we get to know themes we wanted to know about and things about the world. Sometimes we want to know something but there is not a person that you find that has the perfect information you need. Also sometimes they don’t know the answered of your questions. In this program we had varieties of themes to know about, and each of them had explanative and good information about you wanted to know. Also they gave you the opportunity to write about the theme you wanted, and you were more interested in. you notice that everything is a circle. Inappropriate things that you do, not only affect you and the people surrounding you, it ends up having consequences for the whole world. And the funniest of all is that when you do those inappropriate things you even think in yourself.

Sometimes people are lassie to search for information. Here you have directly, well written, and summarized. I know that a lot of people enjoy this program. We also had really fun doing the video and the whole program. We learn alot with this program and my classmates to.Well in conclusion this was a very helpfull project and really fun!

...It what ways does friends can affect you...

2007-03-03T20:03:00.000-05:00

To increase my knowledge about smoking i have visited a page were you alot of information about smoking. This page offers you information of lost of things for example, your body, your school, sports. Friends , sex, danger, family, health, emotions, and more. I got all of this from a page called teen growth.Click on the link above and you will know about it.

all people knows thatn smoking is really bad for. You hear it everywhere. Your parents are telling it to you all the time, your school even has progams that teach about that. You can go to a page of smoking in internet and everything you will se is bad things and people tell it to you.

Smoking can affect you growing. Even now or when you were in your mothers stomach.if your mother smoked will you wshe was pregnant that will affect you growing and you will have health problems while you grow. Also you will not have the normal weight a baby should have.

You know that some reasons that people smoke is because they want to get thiner. That means that cigarret helps you to get weight loss. And during your adolescence you will gain tiredness, and you will not be normal active as a adolescence who dosent smoke. That will also produce respiratory infections and your lungs will not receive the oxygen that your growing cells receive.

As i allready told you smoking stricts your growing. Even if your bones are allready grown. Smoking the only things that causes are bad things. They dont give you any benfit. So everybedy that see smoking make them to stop because is not good at all. If you know, if somebody is smoking around you , you will be also affected because you are breathing he smoke and that is affecting your health also. If someone that you considered a true friend smokes with you, is not really a good friend. First because is affecting you and your health. And second because seeing your friend doing that can make you to want to taste it. And once you have taste it is really hard to get rid of it because of the nicotine.

I really think that friends are the major influence that makes you to do the wrong thing. Sometimes you think your friends are the best of the best. But some of the arent really. A friend who makes taste ciagarret or tobacco, is definitelya a good friend. Is a friend who dosent cares about you and your health. A friend that smoke when you are there without geting far away is either someone who do not know the consequences or they still dont care. A real friend is someone who dosent do bad things in front of you or makes you to do bad things. A real friend is some who dosent let you do bad things. I think that the only persons that will allways tell you the truth and what is going to be that best for you is your family. They will never make you do the wrong thing, the thing is that some teenagers dont care what they say ( because is to boring) and they just care the things hat there bad influence friends tell them that are the best of the best.

I think i allready had a good information of smoking in teenagers. Well I dont know everything about it. But the neccesary for me to know. I hope this will help you o get a little bit o consience to stop smoking or not to smoke.

...Effects of smoking...

2007-02-28T06:48:00.000-05:00

I got some information from a web called Teens health. You don’t have physical reasons to smoke. Your body doesn’t need tobacco like it will need water, food, exercise and sleep. The body's smart and it goes on the defense when it's being poisoned. For these reason people need to try smoking many times to get started smoking. First smokers feel like a pain or a burn in there throat. Others feel sick and wanting to throw up.

The consequences of these poisoning happens gradually. Over the long time of smoking this causes people to have serious health problems like cancer , emphysema, and lung disease and organ damage. These diseases strict a person to be normal active as other who doesn't smoke. Each time you smoke a cigarette or a tobacco you will get 5 to 12 minutes of your life.

Here we have an example of a healthy lung tissue and a diseased lung tissue.

Smoker not only put there teeth yellow, they also decrease bones weight and increase running the risk of having osteoporosis. is a condition that causes older people bones to break apart easily. Smokers are also less active than non-smoker because smoking affects lungs power. Also smoking can cause fertility problems between man and women.

Many teenagers aren't aware of the problems beg problems that smoking causes. They may think it would not cause so much damage, but it yes. Here we have some problems smoking can cause:

Bad skin: since smoking cause a lot of damage, one of them is that you will have less blood in your body. So that will make your skin color pale.

Bad breath: cigarette will maintain you with bad breath all the time. That is a reason why people eat a lot of trident white gum, because it gives a better breath.

Bad smelling clothe and hair: the smoke smelling tends to stick on your body. That doesn’t lives only on your clothe. Also on your hair, car, furniture and everywhere you smoke. The smell of smoke is really hard to get off.

Reduced athletic performance: people who smoke usually can’t compete with people who don’t smoke because physical effects of smoking.

Increased risk of illness: studies say that people who smoke get more bronchitis, fever, colds and disease. People with certain health conditions like asthma get sicker if they smoke. Teens who smoke get their body lack of nutrients they need in order to grow, develop, and fight of illness properly.

I think that if you know that smoking affects your health why consuming it. If you get to smoke a lot you will get serious health problems like emphysema and cancer. Also those serious health problems would not only affect you, it will also affect your family because you run a huge risk of dying. So you need to think in your family too. If you smoke also you are not going to be as active as a normal person. Do you want to have your lungs like the one shown?

Also I don’t think someone will like you if they see you with a cigarette in there hand. Besides that your teeth will be yellow. Also your hair will smell horrible and you will have bad breath. And when someone enters your car it will smell cigarette. I really don’t recommend you to smoke, you will not have benefits, and you will have bad things.

I will want to know about in how many time you will get lung disease. How those it affects to your lungs And smelling the smoke that the cigarette exhales, and you breath.

""Causes and Effects of smoking""

2007-02-20T19:33:00.000-05:00

I got some information from a web page called Teens Health. Smoking is a big problem for people and teenagers. Smoking can cause a lot of diseases like cancer, heart disease and emphysema. When a person begins to smoke they spend a lot of money buying cigarettes. Maybe they could spend millions of dolars because they buy a lot of cigarettes. When they start for their first time to smoke, as time passes they would not left it becuase of addiction. Smoking is really hard to break, for example tobacco has nicotine which is a drug that makes people addicted to it. Also heroine is another dangerous drug that your body gets from tobacco so you get to use it just to feel normal.

The majority of the people start smoking before they are 18 years old. Some of them smoke because they think they can look older. They really don’t look older they look like pathetic teens with yellow teeth and inmature personality. Others start smoking because they think they get relax. It is completely the opposite because the heart bits faster than normal. Others start smoking because their friends do it and because they think they look cool. Other people do it to feel rebellious. Almost all the time is because they have problems with their families or their sorroundings. Also some people specially girls start smoking because they think they will loose weight. The illness like lung disease and cancer make you loose weight. Also another reason why people smoke is because their family members do it. In the past years doctors sometimes had acepted cigarettes, they said that it was good for relaxing so this made fathers tell their sons that it wasn’t too bad. People think that smoking gives them elegance, sophisticated personalities, and make them cool. All of these are wrong because what smoking makes is to put people in a bad physical mode.

I think people are really dumb by wasting the money buying cigarettes which the only thing cigarettes will cause is harm. Also for what reason tasting it if you all know that the only thing this cause is harm and if you taste it the most possible thing that will happen is that you will get addicted because of the nicotine. I think smoking is the one of the biggest problems that the world is suffering. What worries me is that smoking is not just affecting the people that do it, it also affects the whole world, and because when you smoke the smoke gets to the atmosphere then to the ozone layer and makes the ozone holes. Teenagers are the future of the world and they are destroying the future. Its horrible.

Do you really think somebody looks cool with a cigarette in its hand? I dont think so, I think it looks completely pathetic. I think people who are younger of 18 years are still “babies”. It isn’t still in the university. That means they still depend on their parents. Smoking is not the best way to make your pants fit. While you make your pants fit you will make harm to your lungs. Also I think that if your family is not giving the best example you should not pay attention to them. The best thing you could do is to follow the examples that your school gives to you.

My path leads to a point wich is very important in our lifes. I will want to now how smoking in teens affects their lungs if they are so young. Also how many years you will loose from your life if you smoke before you are 18 years old.

Cigarette
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

A lit cigarette will burn to ash from one end.
A cigarette is a product manufactured out of cured and finely cut tobacco leaves, which are rolled or stuffed into a paper-wrapped cylinder (generally less than 120 mm in length and 10 mm in diameter). In recent years, the tax policies of governments has led to the practice of using not just the leaves, but the plant stem also.[1] The stem is first crushed and cut to resemble the leaf before being merged or blended into the cut leaf.[2] The cigarette is ignited at one end and allowed to smoulder for the purpose of inhalation of its smoke from the other (usually filtered) end, which is usually inserted in the mouth. They are sometimes smoked with a cigarette holder. The term cigarette, as commonly used, refers to a tobacco cigarette but can apply to similar devices containing other herbs, such as cannabis.
A cigarette is distinguished from a cigar by its smaller size (hence the name), use of processed leaf, and white paper wrapping; cigars are typically composed entirely of whole leaf tobacco. Cigarettes were largely unknown in the English-speaking world before the Crimean War, when British soldiers began emulating their Ottoman Turkish comrades, who resorted to rolling their tobacco with newsprint.[3]
Cigarette Smoking-Related Mortality
Cigarette smoking is the single most preventable cause of premature death in the United States. Each year, more than 400,000 Americans die from cigarette smoking. In fact, one in every five deaths in the United States is smoking related. Every year, smoking kills more than 276,000 men and 142,000 women.1
Between 1960 and 1990, deaths from lung cancer among women have increased by more than 400%—exceeding breast cancer deaths in the mid-1980s.2 The American Cancer Society estimated that in 1994, 64,300 women died from lung cancer and 44,300 died from breast cancer.3
Men who smoke increase their risk of death from lung cancer by more than 22 times and from bronchitis and emphysema by nearly 10 times. Women who smoke increase their risk of dying from lung cancer by nearly 12 times and the risk of dying from bronchitis and emphysema by more than 10 times. Smoking triples the risk of dying from heart disease among middle-aged men and women.1
Every year in the United States, premature deaths from smoking rob more than five million years from the potential lifespan of those who have died.1
Annually, exposure to secondhand smoke (or environmental tobacco smoke) causes an estimated 3,000 deaths from lung cancer among American adults.4 Scientific studies also link secondhand smoke with heart disease.

Do you think alcohol and drugs are necessary in your daily life?

2007-02-13T23:50:00.000-05:00

Hi dodes! I am suad yidios from Mr.Hide class, and Cartagena. I am very glad of all those questions you had post. They are really interesting to investigate. Today I am talking about two very interestings themes. I am talking about alcohol and cigarret. I expect you really pay attention to this because is better to listen than to ignore things.

Here in cartagena we are suffering serius problems with alcohol. Alcohol is a drink that gets you adicted. It is something that people consume if they are sad , group pression, , or because you are in a meeting and they give you a drink.When you consume alcohol because you are sad that is very bad. You are consumig somethin that is not definitly good for your body just because you feel bad. If you dont know, that makes you feel more sad because you are more sensible. Alcohol is not the best way that you can feel better. The most pathetic reason theat you drink alcohol is because group pression. Do yuo drink alcohol ( something that is harmfull for you health) just to be cool? No! You are coo because you are fun, good friend , comprensive. Not because you drink alcohol. I dont think is very nice of some of you who tell to your “friends” , if you dont drink alcohol you are not in our group. Oh my god that is completely pathetic! Instead of doing that you should say: good job dont drink this will be very harmfull for your health. If it is because you are in a meeting, is not so bad because you are not drinking it because you like it. You are drinking it for education . i think we you drink in a meeting that could be called social drinks. They are still bad because is alcohol but not as bad as other reasons.

Cigarret is a very serios problem in the world. Cigarret is an addiction. When you consume cigarret is because you want to try it or it is that your body asks for it because is all ready use to it. When you want to try it, is mainly because your friends do it. When your body asks for it is now a serious problem because is difficult to leave it because you are just to it. People sometimes smoke 1 package daily and for them is nothing. Cigarret produces cancer and you can die. Cigarret is not only affecting your health. Is affecting your entire world. Dont you that lots of people smoke , because they like , their body ask for it, or they just think it is the style. All that smokes collects and gets up to the ozone layer. It starts making ozone holes, then the sun will penetrate more and will start melting the ice. The water level will get higher and we will end up sinking. Everybody says like one cigarret will not affect. That is what everyone says , and anybody cares.

Well , I expect you learn a little about this, and you dont do inappropiate things. Alcohol and drugs is not needed. Just dont do it. It wiil not give you benefitsit will just cause you problems and problems to the whole world. Because dont think that it just affects you. It affects the whole world!

...Things to do in Cartagena...

2007-02-07T06:55:00.000-05:00

Hi, I am Suad Y. from Cartagena, Colombia. Here you will find the answer of many questions they had post me. Hi my favorite I like to hang here in Cartagena are several places. One of them is in the campito. There I was almost all the thirteen to fifteen years old meet. There we can eat pizza and the have a very good dessert that it can’t be a cookie, an ice cream, and brownie with ice-cream. We go to the campito, or we stay there talking with our friends.

Also we can go to see movies. Since Cartagena is little, in the part of Boca Grande and Castillo Grande we usually no each other. Almost all of us like the same movies. So when there is an interesting movie the theater is really full. Instead just older people go. After we finish watching the movie, we go to eat to Mc Donald that is really close.
Another cool place to go is to MacDonald. MacDonald is a fast food restaurant. The sell a variety of. For example hamburger, nuggets and delicious dessert. We sometimes go there on Fridays.

Another cool place is when we hang out in the house of a friend. We usually go to a house of a friend. In there we goof around, we talk, or we see a movie. While watching the movie we eat popcorns or some potato chips.

Something really cool are when we do sleepovers. We do a set of game really interesting and cool. Then we mess around with our friends. Also we watch a movie. And while doing that we laugh and lots of things.

Another thing that is very cool to do in Cartagena is to go to parties. In parties we dance whether alone or with your friends and boys, it’s really cool. Also people of your school go without being invited but obviously you know them, and it’s really cool. In parties, we also do games that consist in the one who most dance. That is really cool because you get really exited if you win, but if not you still participated.

One of the most things I love to do in Cartagena is to go to the beach. The beach is really cool. In there you have a lot of things to do you could play soccer and volleyball. You can dive. You do massage because there are girls who offer a massage and you pay money. You could a series of fun and interesting things.

Also is really cool to go to the pool. There you can do lots of games like Marco polo, sleepy shark, color of shark, the one who resists more inside the pool and more. We also get relax you don’t have stress. You talk with your friends and all does stuff.

Well I expect you enjoy all the things you can do in Cartagena. Let’s see if that will motivate you to come and to do this all fun things. Post me comments, bye.

..Issues..

2007-01-15T21:31:00.000-05:00

Hi my name is Suad Y. I study in cojowa abreviation for colegio jorge washington .Co stands for “colegio” Jo stands for jorge and Wa stands for washington. My favorite sport is soccer.I am in cojowas team , and i am number 25. my favorite hoobbies are: hang out with my friends, stay at home with all my family and see a movie eating popcorns, and play soccer. I am a 12 years old girl but soon I will turn into 13. my favorite thing to do is to sleep in a rainy day in the morning. I live in cartagena, colombia and i think that is the best city that all colombia has. And it has everyhing that you ask for.My favorite subjects are math and social studies. I like math because is all about with numbers and i am really good at that. Also i enjoy alot that class because Ms. Hall make it really interesting.social studies because is really cool and interesting and i like t learn about the world. Also because Mr.Hide explain us in lots of details and we learn more.

One issue i am concerned about is alcohol and cigar. Almost 95 percent of the teenagers are consuming are consuming alcohol and cigar just because they think that is the fashion. They bacically do it because they think they look important and more cute that they are. Welll just to tell you guys you look terrible. You just look disgusting when you get drunk is just terrible. But also adults are not giving us the best model. Daily a see a mini,un wh is Monday, Tuesday, wednseday, or Thursday a see aminimun of to peoplwith a beer in his hand and 25 people with a cigar in his hand. When is Friday or Saturday i better dont want to say how many peopplei see drunk a and with a cigar in there hands. And how we are in several years cigar and alcohol will be as normal as drinking water.

Another issue that has been very important to the world but at the same time has affected many people is technology.technology has been good in the way that things can be done better and faster. You dont need to do much work, and things are easier. But it has been bad in the way that some people are staying without work because Machinary things has been created.

Another issue i am concerned about is shrinking. I am really worried that Cartagena can shrink because we are at the sea level. An as we know because of global warming the ice are melting and the sea level is growing. If you notice everything is a circle . look, if you see all that polution that the car exhale. That smoke gets up to the ozone layer. Then ozone holes are created. Then the sun penetrate the earth and ice get melted they form into water see level gets bigger and we shrink. I thinwe should work harder to make better this little mistakes. Because the world is really beautifull and why having those black dots if they are not necessary.

...Math...

2006-11-04T19:48:00.002-05:00

Math is everything that has to do with adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing algebra e.t.c. math is very important to know in life. The more important subject, of english, social studies , science , math , for me is math because math is used in almost all the carrers. Math is the ability to solve numbers. In life you need math wether in school, university, at work, at home, and all those stuff.

Math is my favorite subject in school. Maybe it is because I have a very good ability to get things fast.when I am in math classes I am really happy, even though sometimes I get frustraded because I dont understand things. Math is not a boring class , we are even learning, talking with Miss. Hall, or doing some work. Learning in many ways for example board games, Ms. Hall talking or something like that.

One of the thing (beside the subject) that I most like is the teacher Ms.Hall. Ms.Hall is a very funny teacher. She makes the classes happier and more fun. Everytime a student is in a bad mode she tries to make him feel very good. Even though some times we make her be in a bad mode she knows how to control us. Something she likes to hear a lot is Juan Manuels animal noices.sometimes she is really strange she those things that arent normal. She likes when the class has good attitude. She hates when someone dosent understand and dosent have a good attitude to learn. Also she dosent like when people start winning because they dont want to learn or do work. I love when she imitates us wining .

A very good experience that I had, was this year. I really like the theme we were doing because we did it last year. Also it was very easy. This year i had improve my grades and my behavior in math. I feel better because I know I am doing well and that I am not stressing anybody.

Another very good experience I had was in first grade. I really like my classes because they were really easy. I remember they put us worksheets to do that were like they put a number and you needed to shadow the bananas something like that. It was really cool, and since were in 1st grade we just did adding and subtracting.that was really easy.

Well, having bad experiences in math is really strange for me. I just get problems in math when I dont understand something or when I am frustraded. I really hate that moment that I am not in a good mode and they talk to me and I dont understand a thing. Sometimes I like to cry because I get really angry and I dont know what to do. Another thing that gets me really angry is when I am in a test and 5 minutes after I knew all and in the test I completely forgot everything, thats really a pain in your head. Or when you simply dont want to do work and you need to do it. Also when you have a homework and you understand it perfectly in class but when you are doing the homework you forgot how to do it that is really stressfull.

In conclusion i really like math. I like the subject the teacher everything it is realy cool. Is not of those classes that you say like ohh, I have math what boring, no, is one of those classes that we say like we have math!also I really like the themes we are having now because we had them last year and it is a piece of cake. Also I really like the characters Ms. Hall uses in her classes that are Billy and Betsy, they are really funny. Ms. Hall we will never forget you for the word “logical”... jejeje....

Another thing that gets me really angry is when I am in a test and 5 minutes after I knew all and in the test I completely forgot everything, thats really a pain in your head. Or when you simply dont want to do work and you need to do it. Also when you have a homework and you understand it perfectly in class but when you are doing the homework you forgot how to do it that is really stressfull.

2In conclusion i really like math. I like the subject the teacher everything it is realy cool. Is not of those classes that you say like ohh, I have math what boring, no, is one of those classes that we say like we have math!also I really like the themes we are having now because we had them last year and it is a piece of cake. Also I really like the characters Ms. Hall uses in her classes that are Billy and Betsy, they are really funny. Ms. Hall we will never forget you for the word “logical”... jejeje....

Monsters Due On Maple Street

2006-10-30T07:35:00.000-05:00

The meaning of the closing paragraph is the following one. The aliens were telling that the people were picking the most dangerous enemy they can find and its themselves. That means that the people are killing themselves. Also they are saying that the only thing the aliens need to do is sit and watch. The aliens just caused a harm and the people just start saving there skin and blaming everybody, so they will get to a point that they will kill themselves. The message is that the people are finding the worst enemy and its themselves. That means that don’t blame people to save your skin.

I think the message was very significant in the play. First because all people were just saving there skin and blaming people who were innocent. They were killing themselves. Which instead they could solve there problem without blaming nobody and solving it in a pacific way. This problem usually occurs daily, for example on Mariana’s space they wrote a very bad message. It says lots of bad things about her. A girl (that I dint want to say name) started blaming me and telling everybody it was me. She did it for the purpose that everybody thought it was me and nobody think it was her s that means she wanted to save her skin by blaming an innocent person.

To make the story more believers the scientist can invent that they are seeing a black dot coming closer, and closer until they saw a spacecraft. So they can say the lights went off and people were getting crazy and all those stuffs. I will make the change that instead doing t in a city doing it in the whole world. Also because now is this time there is so much technology it will be better if they cut the lights of Electrolux. And that will emphasize when the author said that they are finding the worst enemy and it’s themselves.

Dreaming...

2006-10-29T10:48:00.002-05:00

What gets you inspired?dreaming! Dreaming gets you inspired. Everyday you have a dream specially whn you are sleeping, thinking, or reflecting. Come and lets see our happy and funny dreams.

Sleeping dreams are the best. Can you imagine, one day I dream about being in a zoo so I gave a mango seed to an elephant and he slourp my hand. Another one is that I was in my room and I man jumped into my room by the window and took me to his house. That one was the scariest.

Have you ever notice that everytime you are reflecting you finish dreaming? Yes! Dont worry thats completely normal. Always i start reflecting like, why I kick the table. And if the table would be biguer. What would happen? I will need to go to the doctor, my feet would be as fat as an elephant , and it will be a big pain. What a painfull dream, I had better dreams like thinking dreams.

Thinking dreams makes to get inspired. Have you ever get your eyes stuck in a black dot?yes, thats very fun when you start looking at it you dream like if you would have the ability to fly with the birds and all that. One day I dream about having my own special car and my own horse that travls me throughout the sky. Thats crazy uh?

Sometimes I just start asking me , do I am crazy? No. Thats what dreams are about. Continue dreaming that one day all your dreams will become true.

♥...Trip to Bogota..♥

2006-10-28T17:34:00.001-05:00

Finally we heard the voice of girl: “welcome to Bogotá”. I was really exited because I was going to see Melissa. It was really cold and it was raining a little bit. Melissa was waiting for us. We took our backpack and we were going outside. When we saw each other we both were much exited we hugged and then my mom hugged her too. Melissa was taking while we waited inside because it was raining and she had an umbrella. He took it and we went inside. When we went to the apartment and I saw it was really nice. I slept for 10 minutes while Melissa was preparing us some food. After I woke up and we ate the food we were deciding what to do. As always my Melissa said, “I want to go to Atlantis.”carolina said, “no! What a boring thing I want to go to Unicentro, And mom last time we came we dint have time to go there and we went like three times to Atlantis”. Marta said, “okay Carolina this problem is between you and you sister and don’t have anything to do with this”. Melissa said, hey Caro lets go first to Atlantis is that I need to buy a new outfit. I felt really angry inside, she always had to buy a new outfit and the worst of all is that I new she will convince my mom and make her to buy her outfit. Carolina said, oh my god! Look your closet you have spectacular clothe; even you have more than my mom and me together. Melissa said, but I already put all my cloth is bored to put the same thing always.Carolina got angrier because Melissa was one of those girls who dint care of others she only wants that everybody is at her service. Then Carolina said, “clothe is for many use not for one use. I will like you to be a poor girl, I will pay I million dollars to know what you will do in does circumstances.” Melissa never listen Carolina because she was the youngest and for addition she never listen.

After all, my mom got kind of bord and said, “ okay carolina lets go first to the atlantis and tomorow we go to unicentro”. At first I dint wanted but then I think about it, that in atlantis there are tons of shopping stores were I can buy tons of cloth. And by the way i dint wanted to fight with my sister so.

In conclusion we first went to Atlantis and we had a very good time. We want to the park there and I played dance revolution. Then we ate some food in MacDonald’s, and then we went home. At the next day we woke up and went immediately to Unicentro. I bought a new outfit and my mom gave an ice cream. It was very cool!

2006-10-28T17:34:00.000-05:00

My mom woke me up at 6:30 in the morning because we needed to be on the airport at 7:30 to catch our flight to Bogotá. I took a wash and I put my cloth, I was really exited because I was going to see my sister Melissa. I was ready at 7:00 am, and I was frustrated because my mom was still putting her make up. Finally she was ready we went down and we took a taxi. We went to the airport and there was no one in the line to ticket. We went and we ticket. After, we went to drink a cappuccino. It was delicious. We were sitting there talking when we heard the voice of the girl that tells to go to the waiting living room. We went there, I and my mom waited 5 minutes, and we got into the air plane. We sitted in first class. Then my mom asked me “do you bring your teddy bear” and in answered: “no mom you were supposed to pack it “Marta: “oh, yes! I forgot, sorry” Carolina: “see mom you told me you packed everything” Marta: sorry, if you want I will buy you a new one “Carolina: “don’t worry mom when we come to Cartagena I will be with him. We took a nap until we got to Bogotá. Finally we heard the voice of girl: “welcome to Bogotá”. I was really exited because I was going to see Melissa. It was really cold and it was raining a little bit. Melissa was waiting for us. We took our backpack and we were going outside. When we saw each other we both were much exited we hugged and then my mom hugged her too. Melissa was taking while we waited inside because it was raining and she had an umbrella.

...Wonderfull holiday...

2006-10-09T08:43:00.000-05:00

This week mrhide assigned us a post about commas. We will need to describe the nightmare holiday. This theme is related to the thing we are doing in English I think this will help us a lot because we will need to write about commas in series that are : modifiers, phrases, and independent clauses. Others are prepositional phrases, participial phrases and interjection. I think this assigment will help us alot because we will get acustome to use commas more frecuently.

Last year I had a wonderful holiday. It was a Monday, March, 11. Catalina, Isabella, and Isabel invite me to a zoo were we will see tons of different type of animals. (1)They had different way of being so some were savage, sweet, and scary. In the zoo we ate(2)hot dog, potato chips and ice cream.(3)Then we went through the zoo by walking, running, and some bicicles you rented there if you dint wanted to walk.(4)There I walked, I played, and I run.

(5)Then we were there and besidea stool, we found a dead rat. Catalina called her mom to pick us up. (6)We were really tired, but we continued walking. Then while we were going outside the zoo we meet a japonesse that told us a little bit about his country. Then we heard the horn of the car and we went out.(7)we entered the car and She told us "did you saw all the animals of the zoo" and we told her "yes, we did". Then Catalina invited us to her house to sleep and so we did.

(1)=modifiers
(2)=commas in series
(3)=phrases
(4)=independent clauses
(5)=prepositional phrases
(6)=participial phrases
(7)=interjections

My favorite book!!!

2006-10-07T11:54:00.001-05:00

My favorite book is called IQ 83. it is by the best selling author of the Swarm, Arthur Herzog.IQ 83 is about a bunch of doctors who mess around with DNA, and they unwittingly cause an accident that makes everyone in the world lose a bunch of IQ points and start acting dumb. Seriously! Even the president of the United States. He ends up drooling like an idiot! And its up to Dr.James Healy to save the country from being populated by a bunch of overweight moronswho do nothing but watch Jerry Springer and eat Ho Hos all day.

This book has never got the attention it should receive. I personally think this is a very good book. It is very funny and entertainment.i think this book should be made into a movie because it would be better. And since there re some people that dont like to read we will have it in movie for everyone to see it. Read it you will not regret!

{{{{{Problems and solutions}}}}}}}

2006-10-02T07:37:00.000-05:00

Usually when I have a problem I deal with it really calmly. The first thing I try to do is to solve it. In cases really urgent, I try to solve them really fast and with accurate solutions, but in problems more severe, I just do it calmly. First I try to form plan, next I try to call people to help me and to do it all as a team. Usually I am does kind of person who has very good strategies. I usually when I get really mad I ignore people to avoid saying things that I will regret later, or it might offend them. Or sometimes I just yell but without insulting anybody

One day, I was in a basketball game. The coach Fernando was planning the strategies with the captain. Then he came toward us to tell us the instructions we all listen at it, and the game started. He put Margarita, Lupita, Christina, Suad, and me. We were playing and the other team scored a point. I was really frustrated. Also I felt very impotent because I couldn’t do anything but scored a point. We started the second time. Christina took the ball passed it to me and I went running alone with the ball. All of my team players started shouting pass the ball, pass the ball! I dint pass it and they took it of my hands. Next they scored another point.

The game was finally ended. My coach and my team players were very disappointed to me. I feel really bad I was almost to cry. I wanted to tell them sorry, but I feel shy and scared. Then everybody was going and I called them and I told them my situation what I felt in that moment. I told them I would not do it again and I apologize. They told me that I dint matter and the next time to work a little harder.

Blogger!!!!!!

2006-09-30T09:39:00.000-05:00

Well, I feel very good with this blogger. It is very interesting and is a different kind of thing. Here you can communicate with other people in other parts of the world. I think this blogger makes live easier to everybody. This is much better than writting in your notebook. First you get to a point that you will like it so much that it makes you to write free posts in your house for your one.You can write things of what you think about other peoples opinions and blog. I feel very good about the technical aspects. In having your one you can express your self and put whatever you want.it is really, really cool.

To be realistic, at first I din´t like this ideas of blogging to people at all. I thought it was just loosing your time and boring.but now I feel very comfortable. I think it is a very good idea. And when Mr.Hide tell us to put free posts thats the thing I love the best. I have learned many things about blogging. I have learned that messenger is not the only way you can communicate with people and express your ideas. I have learned how to create a blogger. And also I have learned how to organize my writting.

My expectations are, that I will really like to get better in my writting. Also I will like to do a free post about a actres or singer. and also something I would really like, and I will feel proud of myself is to be the post of the week.well now you know what I feel about this blog, I espect you like it and my blog too!!!!

The Princess Diary 2

2006-09-23T14:24:00.001-05:00

The best movie I have seen is called The Princess Diary 2. That movie is really fun .That movie makes me feel very good. I think that movie tries to tell that everybody has an inner princess, and that it doesn’t matter that you are not the beautiful girl of the world you can be a princess.

This story is about a girl that was called Mia. Her grandmother Clarisse was the queen of Genovia and she told her that she will be the princess of Genovia. When she came to Genovia she knew that there were other men that wanted to be the king of Genovia. The parliament says that unmarried women cant accede to the throne. They were finding someone that accept to marry Mia for she could be queen. Nicolas the other on that also wanted to be queen was trying to conquest her. She tried to show that she dint like him but she did.
They got in love. After two days of the weeding of Mia with Andrew that was the one she choose. She went with Nicolas to stay together one night. At the morning she saw a man with a camera. She immediately thought that Nicolas planed that and run away. It was the day of the weeding and the master told her that it wasn’t Nicolas who prepared the video was the uncle Rupert who did it. Finally she didn't marry, she talked with the people of Genovia and they accepted her as there queen with out a husband.

Hungry Rats....

2006-09-18T07:43:00.000-05:00

Last week I read a story with my classmates. The story was called The Three Skeleton Key. I think that story is really, really scary and have a lot suspense. I think that part the rats were eating the wood of the doors was very terrifying because, I imagine all those rats with red eyes eating the wood of my classroom, and it was very scary.

I compare this story to one that I read in Spanish called, “The Diabolic Cats”. They are similar because it was about a bunch of cats that were trying to invade a house because a mouse was inside. The people that live there could not go out of the class. They are different because in the Three Skeleton Key are rats coming to eat food and in the Diabolic Cats, were cats hunting for mouse. I think 3SK is a very good story and scarier than the diabolic mouse…… scary…..! I also like the part that they were in the gallery and they saw the boat and they started to imagine tons of things that who could be there. i just really can imagine those people surviving to many days with the tension and with the bad, bad , smelling! oh my god!

Education and Technology

2006-08-28T08:20:00.000-05:00

Technology affects your education in many ways. Technology for example cell phones, computers, I pods , e.t.c. they affect your education in the way of , changing the way of thinking , act and dress, cause all of those television programs. Also in the internet there is a lot of pornography. Also it can affect your eyes because you will get so use to it that you will be using it all the time. Also the people instead of finding an encyclopedia and learning they just find it in the computer faster than 40 sec.

My expectations for creating my own blog are: I will put a lot of decorations, a lot of drawings, required information. I will give my page to a lot of people. I will also be very careful in grammars errors, capital letters and punctuation. Because I know that a lot of people are going to see it, I will take some ideas from Mr. Hide cause is very enthusiastic. I expect you like it a lot, it will be very cool!!!!
