Freewriting

Around the world, a huge variety of animals exist. Above all, there are animals which you can take care of as a pet and others which belong to the wildlife. Having a pet is not an easy issue owing to the fact that it needs many cares. At first, it needs an adequate space for living; depending on the kind of animal, it will need a big or a little space. Secondly, it needs food for surviving; you must not give it food which is not suitable or it could die. At third, it needs being washing to avoid getting sick. Appart from the cares, the most remarkable is that a pet isn't a toy with which you can play. Most people should learn this fact because some of them treat animals as if they didn't have feelings. In other way, if people get fed up of having a pet, they leave them in the street. Unfortunately, this issue happen each day more frequently of what it should. As a result, we can see more and more animals walking alone. One answer it would be giving them to others or even leaving them in organizations that care for them. At the previous moment in which you decice to have a pet, you must be clear that it has to be cared and never left.

A complex Problem/Solution composition

To start, pollution is an important problem which affects both the environment (nature spaces and animals) and people. As we can see, there are a lot of kinds of pollution, such as air, water or land pollution. All of them contain toxic substances which could cause health problems.
One solution is to create or simply to form part of organizations like "Greenpeace". From my viewpoint, the amount of 'green' organizations is growing every year because the interest about the world has increased. These ones fight against huge companies and the government to save our world of being destroyed.
Another answer is the laws. To avoid that factories dump rubbish, it should set laws which forbid it. As a result, rivers would not be polluted by factories. The air would be clean with this type of law because factories throw rubbish by air.
In brief, pollution is a controversial theme which concerns everyone. If wildlife disappears, we all will disappear in the future too. Therefore, the government should set laws and control its fulfillment. Then, we would live in a better world.

Christmas season

It is an annually period, from late November to January, which most people celebrate. Each country has their own customs, so people celebrate it in a different way from each others. However, there is a huge amount of symbols which we all relate with this time (trees, carols, reindeers, bells, stars, snow, wreaths...).
At first glance, the most important symbol is the Christmas tree. The most remarkable fact is that decorating the tree is a tradition which families make together. As we can see, people decorate it with garlands, electric lights, figures (like angels and bells)... and a star on the top, which represent the Star of Bethlehem from the Nativity.
From my viewpoint, carols are an important part of what we call Christmas. Generally speaking, it is practised by young children with illusion, while adults only sing so that their kids have a good time. As a rule, songs are accompanied by tambourines and zambombas; songs transmit a loving environment.
For instance, the snow is a fact which show that this season is coming. Nevertheless, this atmospheric phenomenon does not happen in all places; it usually occurs at countries in the north of the globe because of the low temperatures. In other way, the season is represented by a cold weather in areas in which snow is not typical.
In brief, Christmas is a period of tradition which make families be together more than ever. They practice many customs and a lot of symbols are seen at this time. Although in different ways, most people spend this holiday with happiness, love and hope.

Something I really like but most people don't

There are a lot of studies which show that in some places, such as the United States or Spain, overweight exists. This fact is real owing to the fact that people prefer to eat fast-food and they do not do exercise. From my viewpoint, sports and exercise are good ways to keep on fit. I really like to run, play football or basketball, swim... Since I was a child, I have been practising all of them and, nowadays, I consider myself a healthy person. There is a huge amount of possibilities to do exercise. For instance, you can go to a gym. Gyms are the best option because they have got a lot of activities to do (zumba, dance classes...) and a lot of devices to use. Although I have never been in one, I would like to go. In short, I love sport and people who do not practise it should do it to become healthy.

How to care a Sugar Glider

A Sugar Glider is a nocturnal animal which a lot of people consider very pretty. The name is due to its taste for sugary food but it also eats spiders, moths, beetles and larvae insects. However, it needs many specific cares, so having this kind of pet is not an easy work
Firstly, they are very social animals which are not prepared to live alone. It is recommended that at least two of them live together so that they sleep, give love and attendances to each other. If it is not done, they will have health problems, self-mutilation or bites caused by depression.
At second place, they are habituated to jump, run and "fly" from one tree to other one. As a result, they must have a big space to live; cages for hamster, guinea pig or rabbit does not work. The adequate type of cage is called "Voladera", so if you are not going to buy it for this pet, you should think about buying other animal.
In brief, Sugar Gliders are beautiful animals with which you can play and have a good time, but the most important issue is how to care it. You must follow all the advices about its cares or they could fall ill. They are very interesting animals which can receive and give a lot of love.

Bank Holidays

It is the name attributed to a specific number of days in which people do not go to their jobs, universities, schools... This lack of attendance to our obligations is due to national, regional or local holidays. There were two Bank Holidays in the last week (on Saturday and on Monday), so we could enjoy, since Friday to Monday, of 4 free days. These days we had the opportunity to do what we wanted; some went out, a few people studied, and other ones (like me) travelled. I went to Granada and I had a good time so I am looking forward to more Bank Holidays which come quickly.
