Bachillerato first year has made me a more mature student, it has helped me on how to make important decissions and how to be a better student. So that i think it has been a turning point in my life.
It was a decisive year, and very important to be concentrated in everything i did. I think this year has influenced on me a lot. It has helped me on how and what decissions make, and that was very important because it made me a more mature student. So that you knew that you had to work hard everyday, make logical decissions and think what you had and you didn't have to do. Those aspects make everyone a good student and a better person.
To sum up, i must say that Bachillerato first year made me to start thinking what a really wanted to do, always choosing the best way, and working and studying hard to improve qualities.

WALES, THE BEST TRIP
Trips have influenced a lot the relationships in our bilingual class. We have done a trip to Wales and an exchange in Cambridge. Our friendship has grown up in both of them. I specially enjoyed the World Youth Skills Challenge in Wales.
Everything started one day in class. Miss Celis came in to inform about a new project (WYSC) which consisted on taking part in different activities and competitions at Dynas Bran School in Wales. She gave us lots of details about the place we were going to, the activities we would do there, people we would meet and things we had to prepare for the trip. We were studying second year ESO and that would be our first trip together. We were all very excited.
We attended to many meetings during the school year to prepare it and at the end of it we had already fixed all the dates and prizes about the trip.
Time passes and the school year was over. One month later al the class went to the airport, we had to fly first to Liverpool, and then take a bus to Wales. We arrived at the school, a big and very good school in which our partners were waiting there. We were dividided in groups to go to different houses, and i was with Gonzalo, Rocío and Sergio. I knew that we would have an awesome time.
So that we arrieved at our partner's house, he was called Josh, and he had three more brothers and his parents. We were ten people at the house! And also the dog...
During the week we had to go to the school to do different activities, like basketball, tennis or some performances. Those activities were very fun and interesting, because we played it with people frome other coutrie, because they also were participating in the exchange, and with our partners and friends. Those events were the best things we did there, we enjoyed it a lot.
We met lot of new people, friends and neighbours of our partners and some many people of others countries at the school.
At the end of the week, the school organized a big party for closing up the succesful exchange, that was called "Worl Youth Skills Challenge", and all the people participating on it dinner there and were dancing and celebrating.
But the exchange had a second hand, the bad part of the story, in which all of us started crying the day before going out of Wales, and specially when we were sat in the bus, seeing out the people. We knew that we were not going to see them anymore.
The return trip was completely different from the first one. All of us were absolutely quiet and seriously, crying and pensatives. We only wanted to say the choffer to turn back to the school, just to be there one more time, but it couldn't be possible, we had to be at the airport in a few hours and fly to Seville. Our best experience at the moment in our lifes was finished, but it was worth.
I think that this trip has influenced a lot our relationship, and i specially enjoyed it. I don't mind on going another time there, just to see those beautiful parks and football fields...

CHEATING
Cheating has been popular in bilingual class. In exams people used to use some cheating methods to make sure that the teacher won't see you.
At the end of the second schoool year, we did a final exam in which you could improved your mark or just pass it to pass the subject, like in my situation.
We would do it in the biggest room in the school. This was an advantage for teachers (all the groups would do the same exam together), and also for us (cheating was much easier!).
So that we started the exam. I was sat at the back with Valls, Bufa and Gabri, and our intention was to cheat everything we could.
We had some cheating methods to use. We chose the "swappin method". It consisted in passing our exams to each others. It was so fast and easy, but also a little noisy. So finally we did it and we went out of the exam so happy, because we believed that Fernando, the teacher in te exam, didn't realised anything.
Next week, Fernando gave the corrected exams to everybody unless us, Valls, Bufa, Gabri and me. We asked Fernando why he didn't gave us the exams, and he explained us that he realised that we had cheated. So he failed us the exam, and Valls and Bufa couldn't improve their note and Gabri and me failed the subject.
To conclude, i can say that sometimes, cheating methods can succes, but others not, so that i sugest you to not to do it.

CLASSMATES AND FRIENDS
"Classmates and friends" is a fact very important in relations at school. You met knew people and make friends, but sometimes you can get separated from other people. So i'm going to speak about one partner we had at bilingual class that went away at second year. She was Carmen Morano.
I knew Carmen before being classmates in the biligual class, because we came from the same primary school and we were also neighbours.
I didn't use to speak a lot with her, because we had differents friends and we were not usually together.
She was very nice and friendly, and also a little shy. Besides, she had very good level of english because she used to study a lot and she was in an academy out of school.
Our relationship wasn't very close. Nevertheless, we were gradually taking more confidence, and an example was the first trip with the class, to Wales. This trip brought all of us together, and later my relationship with her became more friendly.
To swam up, i can say that these trip was the las time for Carmen in our bilingual class, because next year she had to go away to another school.

TEACHERS
There is a teacher in our school that i remember a lot. He is Jeronimo, the music teacher, and his lessons and particulary his exams were so special.
He was so original in his lessons, and we were laughing most of the time because of his sense of humor. However, when a situation needed seriousness, he was so strict, and he didn't allow us anything, we couldn't speak or laugh.
So that what i specially remember is an anecdote doing an exam, at secon school year.
This exam was a little difficult, but i had studied a lot. I was writing a lot and i was much satisfied with my work done. When i finished it, i started doing something different like homework or studying. But some people were not finished yet, so Jeronimo wanted us to be quiet. I had a question about my homework, so i asked William because both of us were finished and i thought that we could speak at that moment. But we couldn't. Jeronimo got very angry, because he had explained his rules in exams many times, and we always had to be absolutely quiet. So that he put me two points less in the exam, and i was so ungry because i did it very well and i had studied a lot.
In conclusion, i may say that i had fun a lot with him, but in exams weren't place for jokes and speaking. You had to be concentrated and absolutely quiet if you didn't want to have two points less in your exam.

EARLIEST MEMORIES
Earliest memories is the first idea that came to my mind when people say "bilingual group", like the first meeting, the first english lesson...
My first memory was my first day in high school. I met some friends there, like Bufa, Gonzalo, Luis... I knew some of them from our last school, and others from playing football in our local team. I was so excited.
The first day, bell sang and all of us came into the center. We were waiting our new teacher at the corridor, and later, we came into the class. Then, Miss Celis started doing the checking, and she explained us a little about the bilingual proyect.
We were sat in alphabetic order, and i was with Carmen and Samara. I knew Carmen, because she was in my last school and she was also my neighbour, but we didn´t know Samara, and we were so quiet because any of us knew what to say. All the people were very nervous.
It was a short day, with instructions about our bilingual proyect and our first year in high school.
My second earliest memory was the second day, our first day of class. We started it with Isabel Celis, and it was very shocking because she started speaking in english, and nobody understood her. Despite being very scared, we realized that we had to work a lot there.
To conclude, i want to say that those earliest memories were only the beggining of a large and very beautiful period in our lifes and in our studies, the bilingual proyect.

For English
Online dating (for and against essay)
I'm going to speek about the online dating. So many people use it. It can be good for some people, but bad for others. Online dating has advantages and disadvantages.
Online dating is good and practical for some people who want to meet new friends, or maybe a girldfriend or a boyfriend. So many people that want to have a date by chating get usually a date whith someome, and easylly, and they are very shy and the may couldn't do face to face, because they are shy. In addition, chating is very useful because you can use it at any time, and if you are alone, you can have a fun with someone at any day.
But it can be also bad. You never know for sure if the person who you are talking to is real or not, some people give dates that are false, they are a fake. Also much people make the mistake of giving information about their age, or their direction. Besides, you don't have pfysical contact, and if the person who you are talking to lives so far away sometimes you can't do anything.
So there are some many advantages and disadvantages on this topic, online dating. I usually use online chat, but only for speaking with friends, i'm not into online dating but i think that it isn't the best way to have a date with someone.
The best summer (creative writing)
It was summer and some friends and i decided to travel to a beautiful place. We had finished our studies and we wanted to have a good time far away from home.
We were looking for many places but most of them were very expensive, so we finallly decided to go to Venice, Italy.
We programed to stay ther one week. We were in a hotel in the centre of Venice and we had some trips already fixed.
At weekend we went to some parties which were so funny. We spent all the money there buying food and drinks.
Also, we met new friends that could help us with the language in every place, and everything was much easier. It was the best summer in our life.
The feasts of the town. "Frontón"
In Pozuelo (Madrid), the town in which mi father and my grandparents were born its very typical to do sports at the feasts of the town, and the most popular sport is "frontón".
Frontón is a very popular sport in Pozuelo. It consists in throwing a ball to a wall, and you play against other person. The ball must bounce just once before hitting the wall. It's very common to play "frontón" after lunch. People there spend hours playing it.
Many years ago, my grandfather was awarded as the "best frontón player" in the town. In addition, people go dinner after all the sports competitions to have the final party of these feasts.
This sport is very popular and typical there, and also in my family tradition. My cousins and uncles play it a lot and everyone like it there in Pozuelo.
Do you think Pep should continue training Barcelona F.C.?
As i see football and how football coaches should work, Pep guardiola shoulden't continue training Barça.
Sometimes in your job, specially in football, you have to make important decisions. You hve to decide what is the best option for you and your partners. Guardiola has reached the top, he has won everything, and now he can goe down, or maybe continue winning titles. He has been training Barça for many years, and now he maybe is very tired. The best thing gor him and all the team is to change.
Now he can do whatever he wants. Now he hasn't got any worries. I also think that he ca go out and be "free", and some years later maybe come back again, and continue improving his training methods and start winning titles again.
He's still young, and he shouldn't continue because he can lose his power. If he leaves now, he would be like a "king", because what he has done has been perfect.
In conclusion, i think Guardiola has done a good thing, the best option for his career, leave Barcelona F.C.
