"THE LAST TRAIN...."

Last Wednesday, 10th ofr December, pupils from 2nd ESO went to see 'The last train' at the Joaquin Roncal in Zaragoza.

A rich man comes to a village to repair an old train wagon in order to make a film but........
Three men and  boy who had escaped steal the wagon steal it so that they do not take it away from the village as it is part of their history.

The boy goes back to his house and the old man too. Then, they can't go through the bridge because the police has built a stone wall, so they have to stop and then, the village people go there to support them and sit on the railway.

Finally, the police arrest them but they become heroes for everybody and the train stays where it belongs.

The film was entertaining and I think that it is an interesting activity because they gave us like a guide to understand the film.

PLASTIC SURGERY...PLASTIC PEOPLE?

Some famous people are changing so many parts or their faces ... that we cannot recognize them.

What do our students think about it??

** Many teenagers think that beauty is only skin-deep as they only pay attention to the external appearance of a person, but in my opinion, it is very important to have a good health.

Therefore, I think that plastic surgery should be allowed for those people who really need it because they had an illness or an accident or something like that.
In short, people who are only interested in their look, sometimes forget to feel happy about themselves.  As I see it, when you feel good, you look good too.

 

** Nowadays, people that use cosmetic surgery are rising because the appearance is a very important topic in our society.

There are a lot of people that do a liposuction and operations to look better, and have more self-confidence, however, the experts say that a long term cosmetic surgery might cause problems and deaths. As I see it, cosmetic surgery is a stupid way to waste money and if you want to spend money, do it in an important thing.

In short, don’t worry if your appearance isn’t good enough because the personality is what matters.

 

** In my opinion, I’d never consider plastic surgery because I think it is a very dangerous  waste of money, however, people don’t think so as they don’t see the consequences, just think that it may make them look better and feel better.

Nowadays, a lot of young people come for surgery although these operations are very expensive, which means that their parents let them do it. Whereas, before, a small proportion of population could afford it.

Summing up the people prefer to spend a lot of money on operations that could cost their lives to look like someone they are not. When you can be yourself and work hard to become the person you would like to be one day in the non-distant futur

HORROR STORIES -HALLOWEEN

 

 

When I was a teenager, several older girls from my school went to an old deserted plantation house to hold an spiritual session

 

. They sat in a circle on the floor, placed a candle in the center and began trying to reach spirits of the dead. For whatever reason, they called upon the spirit of the Headless Horseman. As they held hands and murmured encouragement for the spirit to contact them, a sudden gusty draft blew through the enormous old room and the candle was extinguished. One of the girls began screaming and screaming in agony. In terror, the other girls grabbed her and they all ran out of the house. The screaming girl kept sobbing and sobbing, "My back! My back!". The other girls pulled her shirt up to see why she was in such agony and discovered a lash upon her back, as though someone with a horse whip had dealt her a cruel, warning blow. None of the girls believed that the Horseman ever actually existed, they were just playing around and trying to scare one another.

 

In short,  undeniably, something quite terrifying did actually exist and reached out from beyond to either inflict harm or a warning to a group of young girls dabbling in a realm they were obviously neither safe nor welcome.

EUREKA MOMENTS

Havew you ever had an 'Eureka moment' ??

The first thing I want to say is that those special moments happen to everyone in life, especially to me.

One of my best experiences happened when I was 14 years old. I was with me friends in a concert when suddenly on friend asked me about the name of one popular song that we were listening to and I couln't remembered it. It was very embarrassing, so 3 hours later, I was still trying to think about it. Then, it came to me and I was impressed. I felt like I had been born again, very released.

In short, I  believe you don't have to think, the answer will come up to your mind automatically.
