As a matter of fact taking part on this activity has been really useful as I have improved my writing skills. In addition, I found it interesting as I have been writing about different topics and I have had to research in order to get informed and talk properly. Furthermore, it has not been complicated as basically the task consisted on giving my opinion about every question asked. Not only I have learned English but also I have had fun.  Being able to do these writings whenever I want is also convenient as I can organize myself the way I find more suitable for me. It is an advantage for those who are extremely busy because of work or sport activities during the week as well. I cannot think of anything in order to improve this activity as it has been developed  to practice English in a fun and comfortable way. It helps students to improve their writing skills and learn new vocabulary.  I am a huge fan of Lady Gaga so I am subscribed to a blog wh...

ARTICLE ABOUT COLOURS Color is important because it helps us to have better memories. According to  ColorCom  “color helps us store and process images more efficiently than colorless (black and white) scenes”, therefore we remember colorful images better. Because of color’s connection to our memories, we also- naturally- connect color to our feelings and emotions. (Yellow is such a happy color right? Or loud?) Designers and artist learn from training how to use color to set an emotional tone for their work. The color palette for a piece of artwork is usually the first thing that is thought about, usually before any words are written. A picture is worth a thousand of those things, right? According to the text, colours allow us to remember moments we have previously experienced or lived. I could not agree more as, for instance, it is green my favourite colour due to the fact that it reminds me of when my family and I went to the countryside in Spring and it was al...

GOOD WILL HUNTING Good Will Hunting would be the latest film I have seen and one of my favourites. Will is a teenager who works in a university as a maintenance man. One day, he is cleaning one of the corridors when all of a sudden he discovers a maths question written on a wall. Finding out the answer would be easy to Will as he is a real genius, although he did not know it yet. Nobody else was able to solve that problem so the maths teacher got interested in Will and he decided to help him in order to become a recognized mathematician. However, Will did have several personal issues and it was difficult for him to study and stay focus. Finally, with some help of an amazing psychologist, he could combine his personal life with his studies and become one of the best mathematicians in the world. Working for the State would be the begining of a brilliant professional life.  Some of my favouirte films would be:  ...

Lady Gaga's interview on fashion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkjVvao0ZAU In this interview, Lady Gaga was asked about her fashion project and she answered that she had been working with a group of young designers that were about to become famous and she had just composed the music to a video they were recording in London. The interviewer also asked the singer about her outfit and she said that she was wearing nothing in special, just some boots and old trousers. When the interviewer asked her about her favourite decade she admitted to be in love with the 70s. She was also asked if she was bothered about the fact of being critizised due to her appearance but she said that those people had no idea about what fashion was. She also told the interviewer that it was okay being simple but that she loved what she was doing and how she looked.  Here are some of my favourite trendy clothes: In order to learn some English during this week I have been readin...

As a matter of fact, studying and working abroad would be an enriching opportunity. Germany is a big country which creates great job oppotunities for foreigners who had not been able to success in their own country. Not only the educational system in Germany is free but it is also one of the most popular in Europe. After leaving university, it is really easy to find a job which suits each person according to their studies. Besides, students would learn the language and make some friends. Leaving Germany would be difficult for them, they will enjoy the experience for sure.  Being a student in Ireland has several advantages. There is a great amount of recognized univerisities where students can develop their studying skills while learning some English. Studying in Ireland would also be beneficial according to the fact that it has a well-funded educational system. In addition, there is a positive working environment as Irish citizens are really hard-workin...

EXAMPLE OF REPORT Local eating places The main purpose of this report is to give an overview of the town's eating facilities. As part of the survey, both tourists and local residents were asked their views. Cafés, pubs and restaurants There are a number of good quality restaurants in the area, which cater for most tastes: pizza houses, sushi bars, exclusive French restaurants and gastro pubs. We are also fortunate to have several cafés and sandwich bars, which are very popular in the mornings with young mothers and children and with office workers at lunchtime. Recent trends/Dissatisfaction It was reported that in recent years most of the fast food restaurants had extended their hours, with most open until midnight. It was also stated that prices had gone up dramatically in some of the better restaurants and, as a consequence, people are going out less than they used to or eating at cheaper restaurants. Room for improvement/Recommendations The main area of concer...

This picture shows a breathtaking coastal scenery. It is a long beach belonging to an isolated island surrounded by wild nature. Unfortunately, in 50 years this beach will be a touristic attraction as people will build luxury hotels and spend holidays there relaxing under the sun. In addition, many boats will arrive at the island in order to transport tourists, and it will pollute the water, damaging the species living there. It would be a pity not to respect nature.  If I had to choose a place to live in Spain, it would definetely be Barcelona as it is nearby the sea and there is plenty of history and culture in its streets. In addition, a great amount of important events take place there such as the Olympics and several concerts.   If I had to choose somewhere to live abroad my country, I would go to London due to the fact that it is a multicultural city and I would learn a lot while meeting new people. I would love to live there as people is r...

This invention consists on a little fan which is incorporated into spoons in order to cool down the soup when it is extremely hot. Sometimes people are in a rush and they do not have time to eat anything cause they are running out of time so they just pick up something quick. This amazing invention has been designed so that people can eat elaborated food without having to wait for so long for the food to cool down. In addition this is going to prevent many children from burning, as they are really impatient. To sum-up I will say that this creation is incredibly useful and in a few years everyone will be using it.  In order to improve my English skills, this week I have been talking to my brother in English at home. He is 17 years old and he has a great English level as he is really talented at idioms. He also enjoys watching TV in English so this week we have seen a series called ''The Haunting Hill House'' which we have both loved. Next week we ha...

Personally, I would say that a successful bussines would be that in which bosses do not take advantage of their position of power and work in order to help the employees and make an effort to guarantee a great working environment. In addition, workers should respect one each other and provide help when needed. No one should look for their personal success but for the company's success as a real team.  I believe a successful bussines must have fearless employees in order to make important decisions without being afraid of failure. Furthermore, when things get complicated due to external factors such as economic crisis in a country, these workers should be confident to achieve the company's aims without fearing anything. A successful bussines also needs an expert in finances in order to lead the company to an economic growth so that it can expand and generate profit. Although everyone should work as a team and cooperate in a bussines, every individual should be able to becom...

As a matter of fact working as a waiter is one of the most stressful jobs. Not only waiters do have to be respectful with everybody under any circumstances but they have to smile and transmit happiness for the clients to feel comfortable. It is a fact that nowadays there is a lot of rude people, they demand a lot of things without using any polite expressions. Waiters do have to deal with these problematic clients in order for them not to be fired. In addition, people demand a quick service, and sometimes it is difficult due to the fact that the bar or restaurant could be extremely crowded. Usually, waiters are shouted at and they cannot complain as they could get fired once again. Moreover, some waiters work several hours a day and they get tired, so it is even more difficult to cope with people and stress. I have recently talked to my grandmother who worked as a waiter in a café. She has talked to me about her working conditions. She agrees that nowadays people is really...

Firstly, we can appreciate an expression related to advice in the second paragraph as it says ''the first step you need to take is to determine...'' as the person writing this letter is encouraging the reader to determine what he would like to specialize on the sooner as possible. A few sentences later we can find the expression '' The most important thing here is to pick what...'' where the writer is making the reader aware of the fact that the most important thing is to follow his heart in order to choose an area of study in which he would really enjoy. The same happens at the end of the text when he says ''you need to do something that you enjoy and love'', once again the writer is advicing the reader in order to do what he loves the most. Throughout the whole text, the writer is giving advice to the reader owing to the fact that he wants him to really enjoy his studies. He is not forcing the reader as he is not using o...
