Self-Evaluation

I used the PowerPoint in this case the Prezi. The resources have been focused on the topic. If resources have support oral explanation. The presentation lasts 7 minutes. I've looked at the audience when I spoke. I read the paper a few times when I lost. I made few moves to attract attention of the audience. We had a small problem the ordination but we knew who touched on in each case. No use many discourse markers to make our clear ideas. Yes, we have introduced new information. Detailed information, it is quite clear and give examples in some sections. My grammar is quite correct and complex. I used verbs that we have studied in class and the ordination is correct. My vocabulary is varied but little rich. I used quite a phrase connectors. I used some filler because I don’t know much. I have checked the pronunciation of some words but I have not said all the words right. No change my voice and I speak fluently because I have studied. The note I deserve would be a 7. I have to improve my pronunciation and my grammar.

MY OPINION:

I like this book because Eutanasio is a character very funny and others characters isn't funny because don't rise. Is the best book that I have read. The history is in detail because more information about the characters and environment.

The best experience of my life

When I was twelve years I participed in the X-Games because one promotor saw me doing BMX. The brand that sponsored me was Fox. These day was the best day of my life because I get the second position of the classification. I met a lot of important and famous people like Travis Pastrana and Ken Block. I had luck of be in the first line with my family. I saw different games: motocross and rally. It was very incredible and I want to go there the next year. I win one thousand euros and a bike signed by famous people.

The best music for me

I like all the music in general, but especially dubstep. It's a kind of music that makes me feel good and crazy. The dubstep is perfect to dance because has rythm. This tipe of music was created for students the university. Their name is DJ's. For ex: I like the song Make it Bundem of Skrillex. Skrillex is one of the best DJ's of the world because of his music but adove of all his personality. This music identifies me because it's a music with a strong energy. The dubstep is generally listened for teenagers. But my brother doesn't like dubstep he likes pop because the pop is more relaxing.

Summer

The summer it's the best time of the year. The school finished and you can spend three months doing what you want. In this holiday you can go to the beah with your friends or swimming in the pool... Sometime you can go with your parents in some places like: France, Portugal, Germany, Hawaii, Italy... You eat lots of cold drinks and ice-cream because of the warm. I think this summer was fantastic because I felt free and I didn't have any warries. In the beggining of the summer I was sad because rained a lot. The best moment were when I went with my dad and my brother to fish.

New Year

The New Year it's a traditional celebration that means the end of a year and the beggining of the next. It's celebrated the 31th of December. First the all family meets in the evening and they have dinner. They eat chicken, they drink beers and they make toasts. Finally when it approaches the midnight (the twelve o'clock) all the members of the family eat twelve graps. After this, everyone goes with their friens to celebrate a party and have fun until the sun rise. The next day all the people are tired and they sleep all the day. In the evening there are differents games. For ex: hit a ball for win some presents. 

Christmas

The Christmas is a tradition that we celebrate every year. On the 25th of December is Christmas night so the children receive presents. I like Christmas because I can choose what I like. I celebrated with my family, normally have dinner all together and the next morning we open the presents. The happiness of the celebration is that child because they don't know who are the three kings, but for me is interesting because with the age I have I know who they are so I can choose what I want.

My wished Job: Businessman

Picture

My wished job is being a businessman because being a job with many exits. I like it because I identified as am. I'm a guy I like money and I like control. My greatest wish is to manage and create my own company. I don't like having a boss and follow their instructions. If it were my company would make my employees were as good as possible because then produce more. Starting a business is very difficult because you have to invest a lot of money and people know you. I also like it because pus create my own products to my taste. Finally I think it's a great job and does not take much note to go to school.

Bye Bye ESO

This photo was taken in 2010. We did in 1st Eso. I was going to 1D and year was fun, it was different from the primary school. I've always gone to the same classes with the same people.

My world: My favourite song

IMPOSSIBLE

This music who created Shontelle but singing James Arthur and name this music is Impossible. The music has different sentiments towards the people. Shontelle created this music for the persons broken heart  also because you can forget the things of the past and start new. When something is not going well don't follow this that wants to convey the song.

For mi this song is very important because nothing is impossible.

Adopts the name of Antxon and several Basque surnames: Arguiñano, Igartiburu, Erentxun, Gabilondo, Urdangarin, Otegi, Zubizarreta and even Clemente.

I choose this film because it's really funny and the main characters are very good by be spanish.

My life is brilliant / Mi vida es genial                                                                     

My life is brilliant / Mi vida es genial
My love is pure / Mi amor es puro
I saw an angel / Ví un ángel
Of that I'm sure / De eso estoy seguro
She smiled at me on the subway / Ella me sonrió en el metro
She was with another man/ Estaba con otro hombre
But I won't lose no sleep on that / Pero no perderé el sueño por eso
Because I've got a plan / Porque tengo un plan.

You're beautiful, you're beautiful / Eres hermosa, eres hermosa
You're beautiful, it's true / Eres hermosa, es cierto
I saw your face in a crowded place / Ví tu rostro en un lugar abarrotado
And I don't know what to do / Y no sé que hacer
Because I'll never be with you / Porque nunca estaré contigo

Yes, she caught my eye / Sí, llamó mi atención
As she walked on by / Mientras pasó a mi lado
She could see from my face that I was / Ella podía ver en mi cara que estaba
Fucking high / Jodidamente encantado.
And I don't think that I'll see her again / Y no creo que vuelva a verla de nuevo
But we shared a moment that will last till the end / Pero compartimos un momento que durará hasta el final

You're beautiful, you're beautiful / Eres hermosa, eres hermosa
You're beautiful, it's true / Eres hermosa, es cierto
I saw your face in a crowded place / Ví tu rostro en un lugar abarrotado
And I don't know what to do / Y no sé que hacer
Because I'll never be with you / Porque nunca estaré contigo

You're beautiful, you're beautiful /  Eres hermosa, eres hermosa
You're beautiful, it's true / Eres hermosa, es cierto
There must be an angel with a smile on her face / Debe haber un ángel con una sonrisa en su cara
When she thought up that I should be with you / Al que se le ocurrió que yo debería estar contigo
But it's time to face the truth / pero es hora de afrontar la verdad
I will never be with you / Nunca estaré contigo

James Blunt - You're beautiful
