MY LAST POST...

Everything is finishing... 10 more classes and we will have finished our compulsory work at high school, this is my last post in the blog, this is my last week of exams, this is my last week of seeing the same faces everyday... etc.

How do I feel? Do I feel happy because soon I will start a new and attractive life? Do I feel sad because I will leave a lot of things and people behind?

Instead of seeing it from a pessimistic point of view I'd rather see the future bright, so I don't want to feel sad of leaving people and things behind I'd rather look forward to meeting new people and getting to know new things. Apart from that, I'm sure that the people who are really close to me, my real friends, family..., will always stay close to me, and the other ones will always be a nice memory and a nice surprise if I meet them again unexpectetly.

In two weeks I will no longer be a pupil of IES CASTELLÓ D'EMPÚRIES and after five weeks I will have disappeared from my teachers' lives. I know for them it's a kind of routine because they "lose" their students every year. However for me it seems a little bit more than that considering that I've spent the last six years between the same walls and faces.

I will have the same experience than when I was 12. I can still remember now my first day of high school when everything and everybody was new, and in some days my last day of high school will be another memory.

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYBODY AND SEE YOU AROUND!

IDIOMATIC EXPRESSIONS

Idiomatic expressions are the spice of every language, they make it rich, colorful and expressive!!! Here you have some examples:

- A long row to hoe: is a difficult task that takes a long time.

- A picture is worth a thousand words: A picture can often get a message across much better than the best verbal description.

- A pretty penny: If something costs a pretty penny, it is very expensive.

- About as useful as a chocolate teapot: someone or something that is of no practical use.

- After your own heart: is a person that thinks the same as you.

- Mad as a cut snake: someone who is out of control.

- Salad days: are an especially happy period of your life.

At the end one word of warning: Be careful about using the expressions because there is always a literate meaning to it that without nowing the idiomatic meaning doesn't make any sense.

CREAMS

The other day my mother told me that it was time to start taking care of myself or better said of my skin. One of her reasons was that at the age of 18 your skin needs more than just water, and she is right, until now I have only been using water and that was fine with me. Well, I had a look into my mother "beauty-case" and I found heaps of different cosmetic products: there was a cream for the day, one for the night, one for the eyes, peellings, make up... Apart from make up, and not really often, I have never used any of the above products. So here am I being eighteen and wondering what product to choose to protect my skin. Looking into fashion magazines or watching the tv they advertise ever so many facial creams which are very expensive. Are all the face creams that expensive? And do they work? I wonder...

Amongst my friends there are quite some who use beauty products, and there are even some who use anti-aging products, incredible isn't it? I'm sure that they know that now they don't need it but I guess they see it as a kind of prevention... But what kind of prevention is that? shouldn't you exercise, eat well and don't smoke instead of putting creams on a skin which has four or five layers.

Because from my point of view beauty comes from the inside and not from the outside.

SOMETHING YOU WOULD NOT LIKE DOING

Whenever I talk with my friends we talk about things that we enjoyed doing and thinks that we like doing. That made me think: is there anything I do not like doing?

First of all, and looking at the topic from a more serious point of view, I will never take drugs. Even though drugs seem to be quite popular amongst young people I have decided a long time ago that I would never try drugs.

Another, maybe funnier aspect, is that for now I would never skydive... I'm really chicken! I know we have the facilities here, but, I can't imagine throwing myself out of a plane. However sometimes when we talked about that we also say it could be quite funny so who knows I might change my mind. JiJiJiJi...

Looking at it from a "stupid" side, and without wanting to offend anybody, I would definitly not like participating in "Big Brother - Gran Hermano" or in a show like that. How emabarassing it must be for the rest of the family to see you exposed like that...

If I keep thinking a little bit longer I'm sure I'd come up with some more ideas.. but I have to go to study relative clauses. ;)

GAYS AND LESBIANS

The other day when we went out to have our brake time I realized that there was a group of girls between 14 and 16 who where kissing each other, which made me think about gays and lesbians relationships and the way they are integrated into society.

In my opion in the last couple of years our society has became more open and liberal towards gays and lesbian relationships. They don't have to hide anymore they can behave like normal couples in public doing typicall things like: kissing each other, holding hands... without beeing stared at. At least, it seems like that. And why not? they have the right to be happy just like everybody else!

A big step towards liberalisation of G+L relationships was made recently when the spanish goverment introduced a new law permiting their marriages. I agree to that because love shouldn't have boundaries. The only thing I don't agree to the adoption of children by gay couples, why? because children are not a necessary outcome of love and their wellbeing should be every parents' aim. With that I don't want to say that gay couples can't take care of children, what I want to say is that our society is not open enough yet to accept that. I can see that every day at school where when taliking everybody seems to understand that but deep down inside them they still have resentements which is clearly visible in their looks.

The above statment is not meant to be imposing my opinion on anybody, so feel free to make comments! :D

MY OPINION ON GOD

A typical discussion nowadays is about the existence of God.

On the one hand there is the scientific believe and on the other hand the religious one.

The first one defends the thesis that every small or big thing has a logical, scientific based, explanation and if we don't know the answer now, we will know it in the future. On the contrary, the religious point of view defends that there is a being better and bigger than us, who created the world and now is watching over us and who we will have to obey.

For me this is all very black and white and as I don't like extremes I would place myself in the "grey" zone:

When talking to scientist there comes a point where they don´t have any answers anymore, this is the moment when I ask myself if there is any more, if there was actually someone who created what surrounds us now and by what rules is the earth running?

I can't answer these questions, I can't say that God did all of these things, but neither that he didn't do it.. I only think that if someone onces installed some rules, now he can't change them. He doesn't interfere in the world, he gave us a place, and we have to live there the way we want, he doesn't mind because he has done his work. This is an argument to contradict people who try to deny God, saying that if there were a God there wouldn't be wars, pain...

However this is only my personal point of view and everybody else has to find his or her own position but please keep in mind to respect each opinion.

What was first, the egg or the chicken? ;)

HERPES

I don't know anything about herpes, a virus, apart from my own experience.

Since I've been having three herpes in the last two weeks I think that it's a topic which I have to talk about, why? because you always said that we have to choose between topics of interest or topics that we hate, so here you are.

Looking arround me it seems that spring time is the time for the herpes to blossom on every girls lip. I wonder if it is only girls lips because I've never seen a young boy with an herpes. Maybe it's because us girls we are more receptive for that. What I want to say with that is, that the herpes usually comes out when you are under pressure, emotional stress, depressive... and boys don't feel that way.

Normally I have the herpes on the lip, but sometimes I have it in the nose, in the face... I don't want to imagine the next place. When I feel the first tickle on my lip I usually run into the bathroom and I put litres of alcohol on it. Occasionally it doesn't appear, but normally... it does! So I have to spend 4 or 5 days putting cream (Aciclovir), toothpaste... and more alcohol on it. Fortunatlly the herpes doesn't hurt me it just bothers me a lot.

It's funny that when I go to school nobody seems to notice that I have an herpes on my lip... I don't know if that is a good or a bad thing, but when I meet somebody for the fist time, that person seems to stare on my lip.

The only consolation that I have for myself is that I'm not the only one and that even famous people are "victims" of this virus.

THIRD TERM, THE LAST ONE!!

To my mind...

The Middle English word "minde" meant "memory" and is directly related to the Latin noun "mentis", from which we get mental. The word "man" is believed to be related to "mind" which originally meant something like "the thinker".

In your mind you have thought and imaginations, you create opinions and make decisions, it helps you to understand things and you store memory in it.

As the word "mind" has many idiomatic uses. For a student the most horrible one is: "my mind went blank".

Here comes my story:

One day I was doing an exam which I had studied for really hard, and after reading all the questions I could'n answer anything, my mind went blank. My heartbeat went up, I started sweating, I had problems breathing... I was so nervous; things that didn't help me because every minute I remembered less things. I saw my classmates writting and working hard, and I just couldn't do anything. My teacher asked me if there was anything wrong with me, but I couldn't tell him the truth because he would probably think that I hadn't studied, so my answer was: "no, thanks, I'm fine!" the memory came back the last quarter of an hour. That was a very stressful moment, because all the memory came back and I only had fifteen minutes to write everything, you can imagine that I put in everything I remembered in a very chaotic and unorganized way.

I don't have to tell you what mark I got...

I hope this is not going to happen again, specially not this afternoon because I have my tdr's oral presentation.

I'm sure that after reading this last sentence, you will ask yourself: "why is she writting something like that on the day of the presentation?" the answer is so simple, it's because I want to do some different work to distract myself, but nothing really complicated either, so I started writing my blog... but you can observe it's not working, my mind is stilly thinking about "cholesterol" and above all about "fear and nervous"

Driver at 14?

Now my brothers are buying their motorcycles and taking their driving lessons at the age of sixteen - that makes me think. I've never had a motorcycle because my parents explained me that it's a really dangerous thing. At first I didn't agree but now, I've changed my opinion, observing all the accidents that have happend. My brothers are more insistent than me, so finally they will get what they want, it's because of that that my father yesterday bought them a motor. However, I think that he is making a mistake. My brothers are irresponsible, not strong enough to handle the motor, and above all, are influenced by their friends. All these points are the cause for the accidents of teenagers, and I'm sure about that because I see it every day in the news or looking arround me, I see friends having accidents.

I'm saying that because of my brothers who are sixteen yet in Spain it's legal to drive a motorcycle at the age of forteen. So imagine, what an irresponsible, weak and easily to be influencded boy at the age of 16 would be like at the age of 14.

And after all he's not only a risk to himself, but to other drivers as well.

In my opinion, the goverment, seeing the number of accidents increasing, is modifying a lot of traffic laws, such as: slow velocity, radars, speed bumbs... but they should really do something about 14 years old drivers, because this law is one of the most important cause of accident.

Ways to fight the crisis.

Everybody is talking about the crisis right now, so why not take it up as a topic for my blog?

Janauray is always a difficult time money-wise, with Xmas and then the sales... lol! This year it seems it's goint to be even more tricky to make the most of your money. So I was thinking what I can do to save money, and here are my personal money-saving hints and tips:

1- I try to think twice before spend money or even wait a few days before buying something, to consider whether I really need it or not.

2- I try to avoid using credit cards.

3- I search the internet for online discounts.

4- I save money on music and videos with LEGAL downloads.

5- I never buy brands, from my point of view at our age it's better to buy cheap clothes because we changes them a lot.

These are only my personal opinions to cut down costs but any other advice is more than welcome. :)

HOROSCOPE II

Here comes the answer to last week's horoscope.

Actually nothing of the things predicted has come true, but if you want to interpret "the unwelocme news" as a cold, then yes something has happened.

If you relate this to the horoscope, sure, a cold is not really welcome, but in the end it turned out not too bad because I had to stay in bed for a couple of days which gave my body time to recover, and my mind time to relax, which I really needed.

In conclusion, in this self-experiment, I found out that if you look hard enough you find the connection between the horoscope and your life.
In fact, even though I am gemini, the aquarius horoscope would have suited me better. lol!

A LETTER TO FATHER CHRISTMAS

Dear Father Christmas,

my name is Claudia, I'm 17 and I live in Spain... and as you know I want a lot of presents for Xmas.

I'm sure, as every year, you will be very busy, so in return for your presents, I would like to help you. My dream is to be with your in the sleigh delivering presents to everybody, but I know that the elfs will do it for me. The only way for me to help you is by explaining some Spanish Xmas tradition, which will make your work easier.

First of all, you should know that you have competition, you can't go everywhere, there are families who only believe in "Los reyes Magos!" But don't worry I love both of you!

An other thing that you should take into account is, that nowadays there aren't so many chimenies in the cities, so you have to enter through the front door, because if not you will have a lof of problems!

It's really important that neither you nor the reindeers, eat before the journey, why? because in each house you will find plenty of food! Chocolate, sweets... and including a paella! muahaha;)

One more advice from my side: the police is very strict, and I trust in you but, don't drink and drive, if you want to return safely to the north-pole!

By the way, start your journey early because it will be really difficult to find a parking in cities, like Barcelona or Madrid, full of cars. :)

You have to put the presents under the tree or inside the stockings, well, if you find them, because every year less people put up the Xmas tree or hang up stockings, this is because the xmas traditions are losing value in the society. Normally people think of Xmas as a magic season until the children of the house grow up, then, they forget it and only think about this celebration as financial ruin, but they don't know that expensive presents are not the most important thing at Xmas-don't care about them!

Finally, after having helped you, I want to remind you of all my presents, which are:

a bikini with reindeers on it, to have a bath in the snow!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU!

HOROSCOPE

Look what I have found in a magazine, this is my horoscope for this week:

GEMINI:" You're going through a time of great change, including your finances, and you need to pay close attention to where you invest your money. you health calls for a deep physical and emotional detoxication"

and in the internet... :

"Lucky coincidences should brighten the afternoons, so don’t be too dismayed if you receive some unwelcome news first thing, because it is likely to be one of those peculiar weeks, where what initially goes wrong will turn out right. A little staying power and resolve will help"

So, next week I will tell you if theses horoscopes have come true;)

TO HAVE A COLD

Now, with all the temperature changes a lot of people become ill, the most common disease is a cold. I think that nobody can say that he has never had a cold in his life. Buf at the time of actually having a cold, everybody is bothered by it and wants to get rid of it as soon as possible.

so, the big question is will there ever be a cure for the common cold?

"Perhaps, but not yet. The big challenge that scientists are facing is the ever-changing variety of cold viruses. Researchers are looking for similarities that all such viruses share. Wichever drug company comes up with something is guaranteed to make a fortune"

Meanwhile, here are my household remedies for overcoming a cold:

1- drink hot milk with honey

2- when you go to bed dress warmly so that your body can sweat.

3- get fresh air

4- have a hot bath

5- eat lemon sweets

6- eat chicken soup

7- and wait until somebody will have discovered a drug. :)

MY NAME IS CLAUDIA

Being called Claudia, at least, 500 times a day by my parents, friends, teachers... I was wondering what "Claudia" actually means, and subsequently if my parents had choosen the right name for me.

The girl's name Claudia is of latin origin, first mentioned in the 16th century, and it means "lame".
I don't really like this meaning, and it doesn't reflect my personaly either, so, I was looking for something else, and look what I found: It is a variant of the masculine Claude, which in turn has its origin in the Roman Claudius. It comes from a Roman family name which was derived from Latin claudus meaning "Nice, Kind Hearted". This really suits my personality! muahaha!

However it seems that the name Claudia has always been a very popular name as you can see in this graphic.


Despite of that, I haven't met a lot of Claudias yet, maybe they are in other countries. ;)

oral presentation partners! :D

First, I want to say that all of you have done a really good work! Congratulations!!

ORIOL OLIVA

He talked about humor in spanish tv.

Facts I’ve learnt
He talked about different programs in all the Spanish TV; for example, he talked a little bit about “Cruz y Raya” and “Los Morancos” two programs which are showed in tv1.
Cruz y raya: appeared in 1993, and it consisted in different short sketches. They style was sarcastic.
In TVE3, there are a lot of humor programs, but he introduces us to some of them:
“Plats bruts”: It was his favorite series.
“Vinagre”: From his point of view, it is the best program that nowadays are making at tv.
He also talked about “La cosa nostra” a program of Andreu Buenafuente and “Just for laugh” which is a british program.
He also talked about some programs of “telecinco” like: “Camera Café”, “Aida”, “Escenas de Matrimonio”… The most interesting to me is “Camera Cafe”; it consists in some characters who work in an office and in front of a coffee machine they talk and make jokes. I have never seen this program, but it seems quite funny!
He didn’t talk about “antenna3” because he said that he never sees this channel.
He also talked about “Cuatro” and he mentioned “El hormiguero”, “Estas son las noticias”, and “Friends”. I’ve seen “El hormiguero” and “Estas son las noticias” sometimes, but I’ve never seen “Friends”. In his opinion it is a series about a life of some friends, and it’s funny because some of them are silly.
Finally he talked about “La sexta” and particularly about “Family guy” and “Sé lo que hicisteis”. He explained us that “Family guy” is a cartoon series but, of course, not for child, it’s about a weird family, really funny.

Do I have any question?
- Are humor programs your favorite ones?
- Yes, I like a lot of different kinds of programs, but humor programs are the best one.

General impression
He did a good oral presentation, in spite of he didn’t speak fluently.

CHAINEZ SELLUM AND FIONA MATA

They talked about sitcoms.

Facts I’ve learnt
Sitcom is the name which is given to define a kind of comedy programs which started in the radio, but nowadays we can find sitcoms on television.
There were a lot of sitcoms far away in the history. Nowadays American sitcoms are the most succeful programs.

They also talked about “American dad” which it’s a satirical animated comedy, from their point of view, really funny.

Ideas for my oral presentation
They talked about a topic which a lot of us didn’t know.

Do I have any question?
- Where do you learn to talk in English like that?
- It’s incredible, but, watching TV.

General impression
Their English is so good, and they have a lot of fluently… they did a really good oral presentation, in spite of that their topic, from my point of view, was a little bit repetitive, but I have to say that all topics of this term were repetitive because all of us, more or less, have talked about the same things, and for me, are not so interesting.

MARINA SARQUELLA

She talked about Pride and Prejudice

Facts I’ve learnt
She talked about three topics very related in the novel: love, reputation, and social class.
About love, she said a really nice sentence: “true love is a force separate from society”
The movie shows a society where reputation it’s so important, normally, more important than love.
Jane Austen, in their books always shows people from very low class, some people think that she is classist, but Marina thinks that she only wants to do a funny comedy, I’m agree.

General impression
She has done a really good oral presentation, the topic was really entertaining and I like it so much, her pronunciation also was good, from my point of view, she has done the best oral presentation in their life, I mean, I have seen a lot of marina’s orals, and I think that this is the best one.

ADRIA ALFARO

He talked about “The simpson”

Facts I’ve learnt
This series started at 1989 by Matt Groening.
He talked about the main characters:
- Marge and Homer are completely opposite, March is an intelligent woman and Homer is a silly boy. This is the same than Lisa and bart.

He also talked about other characters of the sitcom, and he did a good interpretation of the film, he showed us that he is always watching the tv at 2’o clock (where “The simpsons” are emitting) muahaha!
He also showed us some curiosities about his series:
In all the states of USA there is a town called Springfield.
The characters of this series have four fingers in each hand, and all of they are yellow.

Ideas for my oral presentation
Explain some curiosities about the topic which I talk about.

Do I have any question?
- Do you are reflected on Bart Simpson?
- No!!

General impression
The topic was funny, and his vocabulary it was so good! I think that he did a good oral presentation.

ARIADNA COMAS

She talked about different kinds literary movements.

Facts I’ve learnt
She talked about :
Neoclacissim, she explained different characteristics of this: the reason is more important than feelings, they don’t use poetry because it expresses feelings…
Romanticism, about this literary movement she said that feelings are more important than the reason, and the idea of liberalism was present there.
It’s completely clear that she’s a letter’s girl! Muahaa!

General impression
She did a good oral, the content of the oral it was really complete, and the structure of the sentences were also good, I think that she worked a lot to made the oral, but the fluency and spontaneity haven’t been present in her oral presentation.

ELISENDA LLADÓ I LAIA SALÓ.

They talked about relationship between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy: developing.

Facts I’ve learnt
They explained the characteristics of Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy’s love. They did it between the six most important meetings between them.
They did a good interpretation about the love of the film, and the conclusion was very good:
Elizabeth is the prejudice, and Darcy the pride.
Sure that all of us knew this, but I have never reflected on it!

Do I have any question?
- Which personality you think worse, the pride, or the prejudice?
- We think worse the personality of Elizabeth
- Why?
- Well, because she doesn’t want to know Mr. Darcy only because the things that she hears about him.

General impression
They did a good oral presentation, from my point of view, Laia used better vocabulary, and the structure of her sentences were also quite better, but both were calm and made a typical topic, funny and entertaining. I also want to say, that from my point of view they did a hard work when they interpreted the film.

MARINA JULIÀ AND NEUS PAGÈS

They talked about different kinds of love, particularly, love at first sight.

Facts I’ve learnt
They mentioned different kinds of love and related this with couples of the Pride and Prejudice film:
Arranged marriage: Mr. Collins and Charlotte.
Love at first sight: Bingley and Jane
And the nicest love, where hate becomes hard love: Darcy and Elizabeth.
They also talked about “platonic love” and they put a picture of a famous boy (I don’t know his name…) really handsome, who they really love it! I’m sure that it’s true that they are “in love” with him because in one oral presentation of last year they also talked about him!
They introduced humor in the topic with some funny sentences; when they were talking about impossible love, they said: “But don’t worry, because there are a lot of fishes in the sea”

Ideas for my oral presentation
Related the topic with the film, but also with the actually and with some famous people!
Use funny sentences like the sentences which I said before.

General impression
They did a good oral presentation! I don’t know what else I can say about them!

During his oral presentation he explained us with a lot of jokes different kinds of humor.
He metioned the verbal humor (blue humor, bull, epigram and irony) about physical humor ( Stapstick, clownint, theatres, circus…) and finally about visual humor, he put a lot of very funny pictures!

General impression
He did a really good oral, he didn’t do vocabulary mistakes… and he talked fluently and good. The topic was funny and entertaining, but in my opinion, it was so easy, I mean that he didn’t do a difficult oral comparing with our partners!
But in conclusion, his oral is so good!

ALEJANDRO PEÑA

He talked about “Buenafuente”

Facts I’ve learnt
He explained to us where buenafuente works; he works in TV3 “Casa nostra”, in “Antena3” and “La sexta” he does a program: “Buenafuente”. He is the president of “La sexta”.
He also works in the Radio, in “Cope de Reus”, and in SER. I really was estranged when he said that Buenafuente works in la cope!
Another interesting thing which he said is that Buenafuente also writes books! I don’t know it neither!

General impression
He is really shy, and I think that he was so nervous, but the topic was fine and all the oral too! When he smiles all the oral and the content is better, and clear!

MIRAM FALGÀS AND ANNA GENÍS.

How to be a gentleman like Mr. Darcy in our days?

Facts I’ve learnt
They talked to us about the rules of behavior of high social class:
· Be on time at the date, don’t be late!
· The man has to open the door, and of course, first ladies.
· Don’t eat with the open mouth, and don’t eat big handfuls of food
· Don’t clean the plate with the bread …

Ideas for my oral presentation
Make a “colaish“ in the power point.

General impression
They have done a good oral, the topic was so funny and original, and the power point was also so funny! The only thing which I think that it wasn’t so good was the time; in my opinion their oral was a little bit shorter.

BALDIRI GIRONELLA, BERNARDO SANTOS I IÑAKI FERNANDEZ.

They talked about life in 19th century.

Facts I’ve learnt
They talk about different aspects like, jobs, technology, clothing…
They said that the most important thing in the 19th century was the development of the industrial revolution that began in Great Britain.
When they talked about technology, they said that then, there wasn’t a technology in the houses as electricity, domestic devices, cars… they compare it with the film, saying that in the movie we can see that they have candles to illuminate the house, or they use horses instead of cars.
The education was paying, so only can go to the school the rich people.
Housing: In general the houses were big, with a lot of bedrooms. The poor people normally live in the city, and rich people in the fields, around the cities, in houses with a lot of luxury, gardens…
They talked about food too, in the 19th century, the working class normally eat bread, butter, potatoes and bacon.
The clothes was a aspect which was really influenced by the level of your class. It was really typical that rich men wore hats.
Finally they put a really funny picture and showed us a funny video of “Family dad” to include humor in their oral presentation.

Do I have any question?
- Do you think that nowadays there aren’t difference between poor and rich people?
- Sure, there are a lot of difference but not like then.

General impression
They talked about a lot of things really interesting, but it wasn’t a worked oral.
All of them have a good pronunciation, but Baldiri and Iñaki were talking next to Bernardo, so seemed that their English was poor, and I don’t think so!



:D

colours

When I told my parents that I wanted to change the colour of my room, they agreed, but when they found out it was going to be grey, they thought I was crazy.

I know that it's a strange colour for the decoration of a girl's bedroom, my father said that it's a colour for a garage or for an office. However I think it's a very stylish colour, which goes really well with all the stuff that I have in my bedroom. Above all in my opinion colours like blue, green and orange are fine when you're a child, but from a certain point of your life, you need calm, concentration... peace and quite and you can achieve this by choosing colours of understatement.

Maybe you will think that I'm a little bit exagerating, but since I have had this colour I feel more comfortable in my bedroom, I can sleep better, I can study better, I don't get upset so easily...

Whereas when my room was painted in blue, everything was the opposite.

So, finally, me as well as my parents, are convinced about this colour and above all my parents are really greatfull because of the changes of my behaviour.

PD. the picture you can see is of my old bedroom.

plastic surgery!

The other day I read an article about a forteen year old girl in England who wanted to have bigger breast because she was suffering from her small breast, but because she is too young to have plastic surgery she asked her parents to give her the operation as a present for her next birthday. The mother agreed because she didn't want her daughter to suffer any longer.

So, imagine, a girl of fifteen is having a dangerous operation like that just because her breast are smaller than the ones of her best friend.

Who do you think is more stupid the girl or the mother?

Even though I can understand the feellings of the girl, because we all have our complexes, I'm quite shocked, above all because of the behaviour of the mother. For me she is taking the easy way out, she agrees to the operation instead of thinking about the consequences for her daughter.

By the way, I don't absolutly disagree with people who undergo operations to be prettier as long as they are conscious enough to live with the responsability, they can do whatever they want with their body and their money, I more upset about blasphemic people who pretend to be shoked by that, but not by real problems.

MY REASONS FOR THINKING THAT BEING A GIRL IS BETTER THAN BEING A BOY. :D

Hello, today I feel really feminist and I want to talk about how I love being a girl.

I think that being a girl is better than being a boy, why?

because of a lot of reasons which I'm going to explain with a little bit of humour:

Firstly womens are more intel·ligent, above all because we really use the brain, we use it in all situations of our life.

Boys also use it and when they do maybe the brain works well, but the problem is that they hardly use the brain; I will explain with a joke:

Why do men name their penises?

Because they don't like the idea of having a stranger make 99% of their decisions.

muahahaha!

The second reason is because we can wear everything we want to.

If we want to wear a dress, we will be so pretty, and if we want to wear jeans with a boy's sweater, we will be so sexy too! try to imagine a boy in a dress!!

Another reason, and the most important one, is that we are friends with girls, we belong, and we can tell our secrets and talk about all we want without any problems. On the contrary, they can't express their feellings because with their friends they only do jokes and talk about hot girls, so, this is the reason why boys always want to join us and talk about their problems to a group of girls.

Why are men like commercials?

Because you cant believe a word they say.

We can prove this by looking at carnival sessions, playbacks... where boys dress up as a girl, do they want to be like us?

It's true that in old times if somebody published something like my entree, she might have gone to the prision, but fortunatly now the things are changing,but anyway, it's a shame that people continue thinking that women are less important than men.

how can they think this with all the reasons that there are to think the opposite?

What did God say after he created man?

"I can do better than this" and he made woman.
