Now a day kids use to play with their friends or neighbours on the road. For parents this is a safe activity for their kids to spend their afternoons but they are not conscious of it’s dangers. When they hit the ball e.g.: they go instantly running to look for it but they do not realise this can be the worst moment of their life, because they can be hit by a car, and when you are run over by a car you can unfortunately get serious injuries all through your body or worse, you can even die. You can also be hit by a biker or a motorcycle. You can also be robber or kidnapped by a thief.

            But as everything you can prevent these dangers, first of all by not playing on a busy road, unless you live in a private and peaceful neighbourhood you can’t play on the streets. It’s better and safer for you to play in a club, football field and in your garden if you want to. Being hit by a car is best to be prevent because this can end up with your life. If you live in a lonely street or in a private neighbourhood you can play on the road but you also have to be aware of cars coming and going in the street.


Letter to Mr. President

Barack Obama
President of the USA
White house, Washington, DC
Dear Mr. President,
                                   I am writing to you to congratulate you on your amazing speech last week. I heard it on the radio, I dare say that I agree with you in every point and detail you are trying to show. I can admit that you have persuaded me and that it really touched me.

            Now a day, Mr. President Bush should not be concerned about Iraq, but he should start to fight those wars we all wish to fight, those wars that are worth fighting in, and the ones we would all patriots give our blood and family for winning. So Mr. President I am supporting your ideas, this country should fight against terrorism, corruption and greedy ambition. With your speech you have given me the strength to show my opinions. I willingly join your fights, not does “dumb wars” in which we are fighting for ideal or those unintelligent wars in which innocent people with a great future ahead are giving their life and are sacrificing their blood really in vain, these one are worthless fights.

            If the country wants a fight we should “wean ourselves off middle east oil” because if we can finish with this slavery, then those countries will turn irrelevant for the USA, we will not have to be concern about their problems. Our country may probably, be much richer than now by producing our own oil. There will be less unemployment; our citizens will have the possibility to work in American companies.

            From where I am I will be supporting you and your brilliant ideas, I do really respect you as a successful politician, when I look at you I am sure I am looking to the future president of the united states, trying to do your best to improve our awesome country.

Lost in New York city

Now, I’m walking down an unknown avenue, during a dark, foggy night. I, my self lost I don’t know where in the big city of New York.  I’m really feeling afraid and uneasy. From where I am I can see no one, the clock strikes 4 am and this unfamiliar place is desolated. I can see huge buildings and long roads. I’m really amazed by the statue of liberty; my strange excitement is filling me. I don’t know where I’m standing right now, and I’m scared to be robbed or murdered.


            I’m walking down the main street, lonely, in awe by this huge construction, I arrive the corner and I’m standing in front of Justin Bieber´s house, looking it in detail from side to side. Surprised by it I realise that I’m lost but feeling welcome and comfortable in this American city. There was full moon a every now and then dawn was nearer. I had to walk around this city in an uncommon night.


Going to the dentist isn´t that bad

I know you may think that going to the dentist is the worst thing on earth but y can assure that it isn’t that bad. You would probably not believe me, but if not you can prove it your own. When I first entered to the dentist waiting room I was about to freak out, it was all white and clean and with that particular smell I can’t really describe, it was really common and ordinary but it really made me scared. When the secretary called my name and took me to the dentist room, those were the longest seconds of my life. The room was all white too with the same smell, the dentist chair was amazing, it was like a space ship it had many colourful buttons and the gadgets were really strange and modern. By now I was much calmer; the dentist was now in the room he greeted me nicely and soothed me down, after talking to him I was relaxed.
           
            A good advice I will give you is that you may keep calm so that he or she can work properly and so you don’t get hurt. When he stop working you will believe in me going to the dentist isn’t that bad, you may probably end up laughing of yourself for being so coward and scared by that stupid thing.


YOUNG GIRLS BOXING.

 Now a day Boxing is a legal sport for women. Young girls can federate, now boxing is a sport both, female and male can practise. This sport can be entertaining and helps you keep fit, is and aerobical type of exercise, in which you burn many calories.

            This sport is amazing in many of its aspects. Every woman would like to have a sexy and slim body, this sport really helps you shape your body. By practising box you acquire personal defence and release a lot of tension and stress. In my opinion, women can practise the sports men can. Although it is a bit aggressive and violent, woman can practise it because it is also very helpful for your health.

            On the other hand, many voices have reasons for not supporting this sport. When boxing you can get seriously injured. In scientist and doctors opinion this is a really harmful sport for our organism, you can get irreversible wounds, like turning unable to walk. When you are been kick or when you fall down you can get severe brain damage. Another point against this sport is that, when you do a lot of exercise, like boxing you become very muscular, your body turns similar to men bodies.

            To sum up, this sport is in one hand really helpful for keeping your body fit but on the other hand you have to aware of the consequences, as you can get irreversible injuries.





            I was lying on a couch, and looping out of the window, the breeze, the flaming autumn leaves, the massive Andes in the background and I couldn’t help thinking about how lucky  we are, for having this in Mendoza the place were we live.
            Here’s the top 5 thing you can’t miss out on in the mountains if you are living or you come to visit Mendoza:
  1. DOWNHILL: unfournately this is a very expensive sport which needs a lot of training and you need to be really brave. The equipment you need is a bike, of course, but not a normal bike, there’s special ones and if you don’t want to die young you must use a helmet and protections this consists in who goes faster down the hill, along the ride you have jumps and dead ends.
  1. SKI: first of all if you suffer from vertigo, you must choose another sport. This sport can be quite extreme or just an activity you can do with you family. It depends where you ski, i mean if you go down the permitted slopes or you’re more cool and braver and you go OFF PISTE! If you are a bit insane you must buy wide skies or the ones that are called twin tops, which you can also use to jump. You don’t need to buy equipment, you can rent it.
  1. TREKKING: this is a very peaceful activity you have to walk through the mountain, looking at the amazing landscapes, you can catch some insects or just walk.





  1. MOTOCROSS: we are going EXTREME again! Sport mostly practise by boys in which you ride your endure or  cross bike through some cool tracks, but if you want something adventurous and risky you just ride in the mountains.
  1. RAFTING: in this sport you always get WET! So it’s better if you practise it in the summer. People mostly do it in the Mendoza River. You have 3 levels from most difficult, dangerous and rapid to the calmest one.

            I consider Mendoza to be a really hilarious and also extreme place. With a very wide variety of activities for people for all ages. Mostly teenagers. Be brave and prepare yourself for all sorts of extreme sport, don’t be a courage you wont regret it.

Interview to bubba

Narrator: Good morning America! I´m  Jonathan de la Rea and I´m here in Africa to interview how kids with aids feel and how people can help them. Here we are with Buba Mandela to tell us about his life. Hi Buba, can you tell us how did you caught aids?

            Buba: Hi Jonathan, I´m proud to say that I´ve learnt how to live with this horrible illness which some people call aids I inherited it from my parents. When my mum was younger, my same age, 17, she caught it from a neighbour. From this moment her life was ruined. When she met my father she didn’t tell him about aids because she loved him. Symptoms started immediately so my dad noticed he was living with aids, he waited until I was born to tell my mum. They argued and decided that I must go to live with my dad because they got divorced, but I could see my mother every two weeks.

            Narrator: your story touched my heart; did your mum know this could happen? Why didn’t she have any precautions?

            Buba: My mum was a teenager and she didn’t know the consequences of what she was doing, so she didn’t had precautions.

            Narrator: since you realised you had aids did you suffer any kind of discriminations?

            Buba: yes, when I was 11 I did. My classmates started to segregate me and nobody wanted to share any time with me. They thought this illness was contagious if they touched me. These years were difficult since I spent most times at home alone. My father decided that I had to change school so I could meet new friends. This experience in the new school was very different since the first day at the other school, my classmates integrated me, they weren´t scared about aids at all.

            Narrator: that´s a good thing to hear about. In addition, Buba tell us, you won the most important contest in your country, tell us about it.

            Buba: yes, when I moved to my new school I began to feel more comfortable, normal and special as my classmates. I was feeling so excited because of this acceptance that I wanted to do many things. I have always liked mathematics and really don’t find it difficult at all. I love to solve complex problems since I´m a very rational person. When my teacher told us about the contest, I automatically enrolled. It was a hard task but with the help of my classmates and my own effort, I could pass the exam and won the prize. At the age of 11, I thought that nothing made sense, I wanted to die. After I was 12, I understood that we have to size our life and live it fully in spite of everything.

UNPREDICTABLE DRAW BETWEEN 2P AND TEACHERS AND 3P.

They claimed a 2-2 draw in the campus. Federico Ponce made an open goal, and exciting start for this important match.

         Negro Suarez missed some several decent chances to define the match. Once he missed a free shot because unfortunately his shoe went off. After this, Federico Hilger equalised because Augusto´s Suarez defence failed.

         In the second half, Daniel Preceptor fired into the top corner and scored a spectacular goal. In the last minutes, German P.D got his head in the game and showed his abilities by scoring the last goal.

CELEBRITIES DESERVE A PRIVATE LIFE. THE MEDIA SHOULD LEAVE THEM ALONE.

Back in 1970 was when I began working on TV, I immediately became famous. I was really young; I was only a teenager, a 15 years old girl. In those times celebrities lived a more normal life, being actress was just life any other job. However, obviously photographers asked you for photos and interviewers tried to interview you in a peaceful way, they were really respectful. On those times fans also acted this way, no one violated your intimacy. For me being a celebrity is to have an ability to do something like acting, singing, sports or whatever ability you have, so people have to respect you as any other citizen.

      Being famous has many advantages. You make people laugh and have some other good things that make you feel great! People spend amazing times either if they read good gossip, interviews or listening to your song and watching your movies. This is also really interesting because in some way, you are a leader in the world of fashion and you also set tendencies, doing this really makes you feel satisfied for what you do. This helps you to become more famous and to make much more money.

As Yin-Yan says in every good thing, there must be something bad or wrong, this means this job also has many disadvantages. Paparazzi and fans are everywhere you go to, you can’t be alone, they don’t respect your personal life, I mean they violate your privacy. How would you feel in this situation? For me this is a really disrespectful attitude, sometimes you get mad because the show or talk about irrelevant things in your life or worst, they sometimes lie about you or your career. Television can be terrific or just trash. Magazines from time to time have unreal rumours or bad gossip, they exaggerate things. I won’t deny that celebrities also overstate things to make scandals and to appear in all magazine covers.

      Imagine this is happening to a member of your family or to you, I feel that way and I have to stand this sort of things, as it must be, because in some way or not it was they who decided to become famous, as they have many benefits they also have disadvantages. I also think things don’t have to be the way they were many years ago, but fans and paparazzi should start respecting celebrities.

BRITNEY. S TAKES THE WRONG WAY.

At her last concert in NY we saw Britney’s new image. We saw Spear’s rockin´ with some new tattoos in her arms, she was totally BOLD! And she had quite a few kg´s more since we saw her for the last time.

            While she was married to Kevin Ferderline, she was a celebrity but had a normal life, two lovely kids, a really handsome husband and a healthy life but when she got divorced, she entered the world of drugs, alcohol, parties and as you could imagine she turned into a bad mother.

            We think this style doesn’t fits Britney well. Fortunately she keeps her abilities in singing and is still one of the best women performing on stage.

            Whatever the reason is we hope to get the old Britney back.

DEATH PENALTY

Who are we to decide if someone lives or dies, we are just humans. I can assure that all of us make mistakes some worse than others but in our life we all go wrong at least once. Capital punishment is the act of putting a person to death by a judicial process as a punishment for an offence. Death penalty is often a subject of controversy.

            I dare say that fortunately death penalty has become relatively unpopular; in my opinion all countries should abolish it. Everyone on earth has the right to live; I think no one deserves death no matter what they’ve done in the past. I believe in second chances, everyone should be given an opportunity to change. Criminals should be helped and taught how to live peacefully in society, I know that not everyone can change, but everyone can have an opportunity, they should have psychiatric help to improve their own lives. Maybe the have had serious reasons, no education or something similar, I’m not trying to say that the means justify the end, but we should all try to understand others problems, to stand somebody else shoes. For human nature is easy to judge but not to be judged.

            There are many ways of committing a capital offence, murder, espionage, treason, military justice, sexual and religious crimes, human trafficking can also carry you to death penalty. I’m not opposed to capital punishment in all cases, I’m in favour of it when treasoning your country, sexual crimes and for murder, but I’m really against it in all the other cases. For our country it is really expensive to have prisoners in jail, that’s why we have to decide really carefully when sending someone to death, I’m sorry to say, these type of person does not deserve to live.

            When killing someone the world should move to less painful or more human executions. We can take life off someone, but why being so cruel. In some cases I prefer spending money in having someone in jail to killing innocent people, this has occurred some times in the history of our world. When killing these people we are making a hole or blank space in a family, we are leaving good and innocent families or kid’s orphans. So that’s why now I’m asking my self can money cure this inside pain we leave? Can money replace or bring back these people? And the answer is a big NO, so that´s why we´d better think it twice.

            Killing someone, by sending him or her to death penalty is not a thing that happens everyday, we have to be careful when we are talking about another life. We have to be as fair with everyone as possible.
