I want to be a Teacher

When I finish the institut, I will go to the university and I will study to be a Teacher. I want to be a Primary teacher, not secondary. Because I like young children more than older. Possibily I will be a teacher of Sports. I want to be a teacher because I like to teach and I like level of the life of teaches. Every day is diferent and not boring. The holidays are good but the salary is not so good.

Carnival 2010'

This year I did Carnival. I went to carnival of different villages: Roses, Empuriabrava, Castelló and Fortià. My friends and I dressed up as hunters and Little Red Riding Hood. All the carnivals were very funny. For me the best Carnival was Castelló because there were more people that I knew and there was a good party after.The best float was a one of a road. And the best group was the Cheetos. Next year I will do Carnival again.

The film: AVATAR

In January I saw this film at the cinema of Roses. It is a sciencie fiction film but the film is in 3D.

The film is about a planet (Pandora) where the humans want a special mineral. The inhabitants of Pandora are Navis and they don't want the humans to destroy the natural planet with mining. The humans create ''avatar'' that transforms humans in to navis and discover their world. The protagonist, Jake, loves the princess of the Navis and the world of Pandora. And he and Navis fight with the humans and finally the Navis destroy the humans.

This film is very beautiful. The grafics are spectacular and the love story is fantastic. The 3D effect is incredible.
