My presentation!

First of all, I have to say that I can't put the video in my blog because is too heavy. I'm very sorry but that's the reality. I tried to put my video in Youtube and then in my blog but the blog said that was too heavy.

Presentation: I think that we use a good presentation because it was clear, very clear, and structured. We use the typical program to do a presentation, the Power Point. I think it’s the best option, because you can save in the pen, we haven’t use the internet, we can put photos or videos, we can choose the background of the page, and is very simple. I think the images really help people to understand the topic.

Body language and eye contact: I think that’s the first thing that I have to improve. Normally I’m not very nervous, but in English, I have to speak in a language that is quite difficult because is not our first language. And if I’m nervous, I watch at the power point or at the wall.

Structure: I think that the structure is clear and all the public can follow our presentation.

Content: David and me are in love with football, so choose this topic for us was fantastic. I think that for the people were an interesting topic and relevant, because I can assert that the majority of the public didn’t know what is the beach soccer and the football freestyle.

Language: We tried o use simple words, but, also we use some technical words because the topic forces to say these words. But the others were very simple.

Pronuntation: I think that I have to improve the pronuntation in some words, but, I was nervous and nervous play a trick. But if I want to do a perfect presentation, I know that I have to overcome the nerves.

Football

Football for me is the best sport in the world and the most important too. Football it’s very great. Football unite many people and also enjoy and have very good times to people. Some people define football as a sport, a simple sport, only a sport which the objective is run behind the ball, but people that practice, defines football as a pride, a feeling, a passion etc.

My favourite team is F C Barcelona, it’s a Catalan club and is the club that plays better and has pride and it’s a gentlemen club. Barça has the best player in the world, Lionel Messi, is very young and his career is very long. Barça has the best player in the world, but has the best midfielder, the best goal keeper and the best defense too. All of the clubs admire Barça, all, only Real Madrid doesn’t like. With this two clubs have a big rivalry, since many years.  Watching at these two matches we have seen the current quality of these two clubs, but Barça is the club has always been victorious.

In Spain there are a lot of leagues and categories. The most important is Liga BBVA, then Liga Adelante, 2ª B, 3ª, Primera Catalana, Prefrent, Primera Regional, Segona Regional i Tercera Regional. The most important competition of Europe is the Champion League, and Barça is the last champion. FCB has four Champions League, and the team has more Champions is Real Madrid, has nine Champions. The most important competition in the world is the World Cup. This competition is played every 4 years. The last international team that they won is Spain. The international team has more World Cups is Brazil, they have five.

The player who win more money is Samuel Eto’o, he win 20 millions every year. The most important players represent the most famous marks, for example, Adidas, Nike…

The length of career of the players, approximated is to 35 years

I play football from 7 years. All of my life I play football with Esplais, a club of Castelló d’Empúries, but from 1 year I play football with Figueres, because in Esplais now they haven’t got a team. I enjoy play with Esplais because I had my friends, but in Figueres I met a lot of people.

Now I’m playing with Figueres, but I am training children in Esplais. I enjoy train children, but I prefer train older children because it’s more interesting and more exciting, and older children have more knowledge of football.

Xavi Hernández Creus

As all the football’ fanatic knows, Xavi is the best midfielder in his team, FCB, but also, in the world and in the history.

He is my favourite football player, but for me, he is not only a football player, for me he’s a good reference, because he respects the values of football, but also, the values of the life that is more important.

I admire the way that he plays, his class with the ball, his way to drive the ball in the pitch, how he keep up the head, to execute the last pass, how he arrives to the second line, his way to execute the free kicks.

I think that the UEFA and the FIFA don’t consider all of his talent, but I know his talent and I know that he is the best!

People can think that I am in love to Xavi, but in the football life, I can assert that I admire Xavi, he’s my referent, and also I can assert that football players like Xavi, will not be more, because he’s special.

So, I can say that Xavi Hernández, was, is and will be my idol.

11-09-12

The 11/09/12 was the biggest demonstration in the history of Catalonia. I was there, in Barcelona, with the million and a half of people, people that want an independent Catalonia.

We were all at the same area waiting the start of the demonstration. We were together, the weather was very hot and almost we couldn’t breathe. We were waiting two hours to the start of the demonstration, these moments were the most difficulties, but I think that the balance was good. I saw a lot of people, in the same place, requiring the same, we wanted an independent Catalonia.

I saw millions of independent flags, we sang a lot of songs, was incredible.

I was in the most important demonstration in the history of Catalonia, in the future, I will tell to my children, or to my grandchildren, that I was in the demonstration, I will tell all the things that happened in those moments.

I have a word to describe the demonstration’s day: Incredible.

Good and bad experiences

When I was 15 years old, I had a very important injury playing football in Vilamalla’s field. This injury is very important for the body, is very negative, and I've been a long time doing anything, because I couldn't. I have a good lesson about this experience because it mades me stronger.

When I was 8 years; I was playing against FCB, with my team Esplais. I'll never forget this moment and I'm taking away a lot of good moments. The match was incredible, they play fantastic, very fast, we couldn’t see the ball, we were always running behind the ball, but, we knew that, it wasn’t a simple team; it was a match against FCB.

Now I’m 16 years old, and in Barça TV, I can recognise some football players that they played in my match against FCB, because they are fantastic football players and in some matches they go to Barça B. So I think that I’m very lucky, because I play against football players that maybe can arrive in the future in the first team.

In 2011, I went in a camping of Sant Pere with my friends. We practise a lot of sport, we were always at the football’s pitch or in the beach, practising beach soccer, we went to a lot of parties, often we prepared our parties, but in the camping were some parties and there were some pubs outside the camping,  we have a very good time, so, I'll never forget those holidays.

Small lies or white lies

When I was young, my parents always said that to tell lies was a wrong thing. Now I’m a teenager and also I tell some lies, but I can see that if all the people always say the truth, we might hurt the other people feelings.

Every day we say small lies to avoid hurting the feelings of the other people. If someone asked his friends if they like his new hairstyle, we say yes, but in reality we think that his new hairstyle is horrible. By using these kinds of lies we don’t hurt the feelings of the others.

There will always be people who find that these small lies are unnecessary and who don’t care about the feelings of the others. If these people think that they have this character nobody will change their character. Many people will think that this is a bad person, but the others will admire them.

In conclusion, if there are problems can carry serious consequences, then we have to tell the truth, but in the other cases, small or white lies can be necessary in our life.

Pep Guardiola

The last year I had the same job as know”, I’m a coach in the team of my town, called Esplais. I train children that they have 6-7 years. I love that, people can say that is easy, but I can assert that they’re wrong. I have 14 football players, that all the day are thinking or doing but things, and they don’t listen too much. But it’s a good job, because I love football and I want transmitted all I know of football to these children. My objective is do funny exercises, but exercises that they can learn. I know that to me and Guardiola are a lot of differences, but he’s one of my referents, because he’s very scrupulous with his job and he is a winner, but before that, he’s a very good person, so those are on of the reasons that why is Guardiola one of my referents.

Thirteen and Adrian Mole

Tracy and Adrian are very different as you can see in the film and in the book. But also they have little things in common. On of these things is, low self-esteem, an unstructured family, the same ages, but I think that they have the same feelings, because the adolescence, always thinks in the same things.

To improve their lives, they lean in different things. Adrian leans in his personal diary, he try to be happier writing his bad things that happen in his life. He think that is a good way to be happy, so I think that he think that the best way to let off steam is write.

But Tracy has another way to be happier, is look like another person, a popular person, a beautiful person, etc. To look like another person, that in that case is Evie Zamora, Tracy will do things that she can’t imagine before.

 In adolescence there are a lot of problems, but I think that to look like another person, is not the best way to be happy, I think that the best way is look at your self and fight against the stones of the life.

The untouchable

First of all, I want to say that go to the cinema isn’t my favourite hobby, so I will talk about a film that I saw in April or in May , but I think that was one of the last films that I saw in the cinema.

The tandem of directors consisting of Eric Toledano and Oliver Nakache, has achieved a great successes of all the people of the cinemas in France, becoming the Untouchable the most watched movie of the season.

Philippe is a man of the high class who had an accident car. A black man has to care him and they have a good relationship. Philippe see that the man black is a great person. They combine their tastes.

It’s a film that cause a big reputation and I recommended this film for the friendship plot.

It seems that this movie will not give a good image, but this film is very entertaining. 

Teenagers and cannabis: what every parent needs to know

This news talks about the cannabis and what the parents needs to do and needs to know. I think that’s a good thing talk about the drugs in the newspaper because there are a lot of teenagers that consume that kind of drugs, and that’s one of the worst things that teenagers can do, because it’s very unhealthy for the body, and consume drugs, it’s also an expensive thing. The parents have to control more their children, because the teenagers are in a difficulty age, and the appearances are very important for them.

In conclusion, I think that’s very interesting news.

Manchester City 1 Real Madrid 1

This news talks about the match of Manchester City against Real Madrid. Another time, Manchester City has disappointed his followers in the Champions League. The president of Manchester has paid a lot of money to sign good players of the other teams. The last year, the same thing happened.

 It was a good match, because they are good teams with good players, so the show was insured. Benzema scored the first goal, but in the second half, the referee invented a penalty for Manchester City, so Manchester City could tie.

Madrid pass with the second position and Manchester gets eliminated of the Champions League. Borussia Dortmund passes with the first position.

Spartak Moscow 0 Barcelona 3

This news makes a little summary of Barcelona’s math against Spartack of Moscow. It talks about the good match of Barça, and of course, the great match of Lionel Messi, the best player in the history. Almost he has overcome all the records in the history of that sport, but there hasn’t got two, if we are talking about his goals. In the Europe Competition, called Champions League, he has overcome Van Nistelrooy in goals of Champions League, only overcome for Raul. But the most important record is score more goals than Gerd Muller, that in one year, he scored 85 goals. Now Messi has 80 goals.

In this new talks about the match of Lille against BATE, and the other match, Valencia-Bayern.

Barça has already passed the little league.

Magical History

Once upon a time on a coast village, in Scotland, there was a teenage girl called Helen. She was an ordinary girl, with her problems at home, her difficulties at high school and her discussions with her friends, but her biggest worry was that she didn’t like boys like the other girls at her class, she liked girls.

She found in her mother her best friend and she told her, her worst worries. Her mother thought that Helen had to come out of the closet but she didn’t want, because of the classmates comments.

One day, Helen arrived home very sad.

Helen’s mother: What happens daughter?

Helen. My life is a shit… I’ll never have a girlfriend because all the girls want to go out with boys.

Helen’s mother thought about a rainy afternoon when she was a child. Her grandfather gave her a magical necklace. He said that, with this object, she could have always luck in her decisions.

Helen’s mother: Well… I think it’s the moment to come out of the closet. If you never say that you’re lesbian, you will never find the other half. Have this magical necklace, it will give you luck with these decisions.

Helen told her secret the next day to her friends and in a few days all the high school knew that. The people comments started and she cried a lot. But her lucky changed the day that she wore the necklace. In the other class of her age a girl sent a love message to Helen. Two weeks later, Helen and her new friend started to go out and they were happier than ever they could imagine.

Introduce myself

Dear Maria

I found your name in the web site to meet with boys and girls of our age and I’m just writing to introduce myself. My name is Jaume Sués and I’m 15 years old. I live in Castelló d’Empúries, which is a small town near the cost in Catalonia Northern. I love play football and train some children in the team of my town, but I like other sports like basketball or handball, listen to music…

What kind of music do you like? What is your favourite sport? What do you do in your free time? I am very interested to know the things do you like or do you do.

In my town, there is a big urbanization called Empuriabrava and is very famous because there is a big track to parachute, and is the most important and the biggest in Europe, I think that you had heard of that track, because famous people test that experience.

At the school, I’m doing the arts or economic Batxillerat, because I am not interested about Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I am interested in Economy or Geography, that for me it's more interesting and relevant, because I follow the economy of my country. The subjects that I do are the subjects that are obligatory and the subjects that are optional. Catalan, Spanish, Philosophy, English and P.E, and the subjects that I chose are Economic, Business Administration, Maths and Geography. I want to study economics in the university of Barcelona.

I think that you can send a message to me or chatting any day for Facebook, I hope you are very well, 

Jaume
