Block organisation

Living in a city and living in a village are facts with a lot of differences. When you live in a city, you have more stress due to the high amount of people and traffic jams. Added to this, factories are located there or in nearby areas, so there is more pollution. As a rule, cities are bigger and therefore it is more difficult that people know each other. Because of the dimension, there are more shops and facilities such as museums, swimming pools, discotheques or malls. However, living in a village is a different standart of living. When you live in a village, you can be relaxed in nature spaces surrounded, sometimes, of animals and trees. These nature spaces prevent that pollution exists and, the air is cleaner without industrialized areas. Because of the little dimesion, the space is destinated to shops of necessities like pharmacies or supermarkets. As usual, villages are smaller and people know each other. In brief, living in a city and living in a village are not similar experiences and there will always be people with different tastes about where to live.

So tired...

I don't know why but the last few days have been exhausting. I was sleepy in all classes and, of course, at home as well. Owing to that fact, I had to have coffee but it wasn't enough. I hope the time passes quickly and the weekend starts. At the weekend, I am going to rest so that I can be prepared to begin a new week.

Intouchables

This film tells the relationship between two men from different environment. One, Driss, has criminal record and has just go out from the prison; the other, Phillippe, is a rich quadriplegic who is looking for someone to look after him. Phillippe hires Driss (the only person who doesn’t treat Phillippe with compassion).
I saw this movie because a friend recommended it to me and it has become one of my favorite movies. Really it is a good movie due to the infinite feelings which causes (sadness, happiness, surprise, pity ...). While you see it, you will be like in a roller coaster; you can cry or laugh in seconds of difference.
It was a very seen film and commented since in just nine weeks after it premiere in France became the second most successful French film of all time in number of viewers. Although his debut was in 2011, nowadays there are still people who see it for the first time or, even, see it again.
Phillippe’s luxurious house has a lot of expensive items such as paintings, sculptures, jewelry ... and, however, it is full of loneliness. Therefore, one of the most significant factors of the film is how the appearance of Driss brings joy to Phillippe and to the house.
In conclusion, it is the story of a relationship between two people who help each other. Phillippe learns to be happy again and has fun, and Driss finds their calling and has a job. But, the most important is the achievement of both: friendship.

Describe my favourite place

When I visited Camden Town, in London, I discovered a small zone near all the fast-food employment (Chinese, Indian, Italian, Mexican…). It is an open space from where you can see the river. The interesting fact is that you can do it while you are eating on colorful motorbikes. Yes, I have said motorbikes; they have been adapted to serve as chairs. When I was there, there was cold weather but I think that it depends on the day. There aren’t ships sailing the river, but this makes the place more calm and peaceful. Stay there was a good experience because made me feel safe, satisfied and relaxed; I recommend it to everyone.

Describe someone

My main reference is my mother. She is my role model and not some singer or famous person. Her physical appearance is not eccentric: brown eyes, brown hair, thin, normal stature (not very tall, neither short)... What is more remarkable of her is the personality. She is always worried about the people she loves, so she is lovely and friendly. This is only a little part of all the good qualities that she has. In the future, I would like to be like her.

My first day

In my first day at the university I felt very nervous because I was in a different place with different people than the usual. It was like a new world for me due to the fact I was not habituated to it. However, I met nice people who make me feel good. Despite I did not know all my classmates I was okey. The only bad fact of my career is the timetable. I have been used to have classes in the morning all my life, and now, the classes are in the afternoon so it has being difficult to get used. In spite of this, I think that it is going to be a good year with a lot of experiences in which I will learn so much.
