I was with some friends playing baseball in one street of my towns. There is a statue in the street and, to cut a long story short, I broke the statue’s head with the football ball. We felt bad about the accident and we felt wrose when one of the policemans appeared.</span></b></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">‘Who broke the statue, lads?’ he asked. ‘Did you see anything?’ We looked at each other guiltily, then my friend spoke.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">‘I’m not sure what happened,’ he said. He wasn’t exactly telling the truth and I knew that I had to say something.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">‘The ball hit the statue,’ I said. ‘It was me who broke it.’ Surprisingly, the policeman didn’t look too upset. ‘Well, I’m gland that you admitted it,’ he said, ‘because I knew it was you. I saw you.’</span></div>
<br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the end, nothing happened about the statue. The policeman was very good about it and it was an accident after all. It wasn’t a pleasant experience, but at least I felt that I’d done the right thing. </span></div>

I’d failed some exams at school, and I’d also had a big argument with my family. In my house I didn’t really want to see my family. I spend a lot of time playing computer games in my room.</span></b></div>

People who is optimistic always fight for their ideals and never give up. The optimistics always live smiling and good things happen in their lives because they are friendly and they never are angry. Finally I decided to be an optimistic person and finally good things started to happen to me.</span></b></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">These days, i feel much happier. Be optimistic has made me feel more useful and sociable. I’m helping other people for be optimistic. If I hadn’t read the book, I’d never had the opportunity.</span></div>

I'm interested in dubsep music and comedy. Some of my friends are into dubstep too. The people who I spend most time are my mate "El tete" and my friend "El tato". The thing which I like best is playing with my laptop into La Draga park.<br />
<br />
I think that in the world there are now a lot of injustice, so I think that we could improve the economic system because the economic crisis it's so dangerous. There aren't many things that make me angr, but one thing that annoys me is when people are rude and ignorant.<br />
<br />
As far as the future is concerne, it sometimes worries me that we won't have peace. I find a bit froghtering that there's always a war somewhere in the world. I'm fairly optimistic about my own future thought. In a few years time, I see myself travelling arround the world with a bussines group.<br />

<br />
From the moment the 14-years old singer arrived in the city of nashville, USA, it was clear she was destined for success. Taylor Swift moved to American country music capital from her home in Pennsylvania for just one reason... she wanted to be a famous country singer. Her songs soon made an impression on music bosses... and her dream became reality.<br />
<br />
Early Succes<br />
<br />
In 2006, at age 16, Taylor realessed her first single "Tim McGraw" about one of her ex-boyfriends. Love has been a theme of her music ever since. Taylor's public appreciated her intimate, autobiographical songs and in 2008 she was nominated for her first Grammy Award. Then at 2010 Grammy Awards, she became the youngest singer to win Album of the year... at age of 20.<br />
<br />
In my opinion Taylor Swift is one of the best pop singers that there are in our world. Maybe the Taylor Swift will be the new Madonna.<br />

In my opinion Emma Stone will be one of the next big stars of Hollywood becouse she only got 25 years and she do lots of movies as a protagonist, i think that she will be an icon of 10's movies.<br />
<br />

got their name because smart means intelligent and smartphone means
intelligent mobile phone that has the same functionality than a
microcomputer with the ability of surf to the internet or play video
games. Most of the smartphones are manufactured in china and designed

Hi, Joel</div>
<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
I'm just writing to check
that everything's OK for your visit.</div>
<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
I think you'll like
Banyoles. On Saturday morning, we're doing a trip with my friends
because they really want to show you El Pla de l'Estany. We'll be
free in the afternoon, so we'll probably go to the La Draga parc to
meet again with some of my friends, and we could either walk around
the lake or go to the gym. It's up to you. I expect we'll end up in
one of the cafés in the plaça major.</div>
<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
On Sunday, we could ride
a bike around El Pla del Estany. There are some typical Catalan
villages around here, like Centenys or St. Miquel de Campmajor. There
isn't too much to do in them, but they're very pretty places. I'll
get some photos and you can have a look.</div>
<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
We're going to meet you
at the railway station tomorrow in Girona, so can you remind me what
tine your train gets in?</div>
<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
Looking forward to seeing
you.<br />

<b>Ferran:</b> No, what are they?<br />
<b>Jordi: </b>They're posters for an anti-smoking campaign. All the studens in the school have to say which one's best, and why.<br />
<b>Ferran:</b> Let's see what do you think?<br />
<b>Jordi:</b> I don't know... Probabily the right one, because it has got a clearer message. Do you agree?<br />
<b>Ferran:</b> I don't agree with you, I prefer the other, because i like the message of the photo.<br />
<b>Jordi:</b> Why's that?<br />
<b>Ferran: </b>Will, I reckon you should be positive. For me, the one on the right is very negative, and scary...<br />

<br />
At the moment, it is legal in some countries to use animals for mediacl research, although there are arguments both for and angainst this practice.<br />
<br />
One of the arguments for use animals for medical research is that we could use them to test new medicines. In addition, scientists could use these animals to find medicines to cure some illnesses.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, there is a moral problem because the animals must have their own rights and some of them die when are testing a medicine. Also, some people say that we shouldn't allow using animals for medical research.<br />
<br />
All in all, I'm not in favour of using animals for research experiments. I believe that if it continues, we should have stricter controls on research and experiments.<br />

We've been on holiday here in Filipines for a week now and I've just met this girl, Megan. She's absolutely gorgeous, but I'm not sure how I feel about him. I need your advice.<br />
<br />
I met him on the beach yesterday and she invited me to dance with her. Both of us were having a real laught and Megan invited me to a party with her friends. When we were there, she basically ignored me and started flirting with a Canadian boy. But when i said goodbye, she walked to the bus stop with me and neither of us could stop talking.<br />
<br />
I've been thinking about things a lot since then. I'll probably see her later, but I'm not sure what to do if she asks me out. She seems very diferent when she's with his friends. What do you reckon?<br />
<br />

So, they decide to form a neighbourhood watch group. But things get serious when they accidentally discover an alien plan to destroy the world... and are forced into action.<br />
<br />
This film is starred by Ben Stiller, Vince Vaugh, Jonnah Hill and Richard Aoyade.<br />
<br />
I upload this text about this movie because i have been watching last years some movies and series about Jonnah Hill like "Superbad" and the english actor "The IT crowd" i think that will be a good move because i love the movies of these actors<br />

The two-thousands was a decade that people started to browse the web; there started to be smartphones, like iphone mobiles or nexus mobiles and social networks like facebook or twitter. There were a good times but at the end of the decade started to be the financial crisis.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In two thousand new musical groups appeared as "The Black Eyed Peas" and "Coldplay", but it is stopped giving importance to musicians and the music began to be published by DJs such as "David Guetta" or "DJ Tiesto ". Finally also appeared new idols such as "Justin Bieber" or "Lady Gaga". In cinemas Harry Potter was a big hit. There were seven Harry Potter films between 2001 and 2010. Fashions were different in the style “looking for comfort”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
By the end of the decade, the world went into a financial crisis. But Inventions such as the smartphones, gps, tablets changed people’s lives. There were a lot of memorable events on the 2000s decade, but globalization was "the greatest event" in the decade.<br />

Firstly I'm going to talk about when I was in Banyolas where I met every day with my friends, then I'm going to talk about when I went with my family to Andorra and the Pyrenees and finally I'm going to talk about the ‘protest’ of 11th of September of Catalonia new state in Europe.<br />
<br />
In the last summer holidays I didn’t travel a lot, but in the places where I have been I enjoyed it a lot. Firstly i stayed in Banyoles one month, where I started to do my homework and met with my friends every day, in this first month I didn’t do something special but some days I went to the beach, platja d’aro, Calella de Palafrugell and other cities in front of the beach. In this first month my parents forced me to watch some movies in English and I was in some English forums for learn to speak the language. Because I think that’s easy to learn how to write a language but it’s difficult to speak it and understand it instantly.<br />
<br />
After that I went with my parents to visit my grands who lives in the Pallars Sobirà and I was with them one week helping my uncle with the farm and the orchard, seriously I hate wake up early for feed the pigs and then stay all the morning harvesting my tomatoes. This is why my uncle told me that I had to study. After this strange week i went to Andorra to go shopping, visit all the country and have a good time in Caldea. Seriously I was impressed about the new restaurants in Andorra.<br />
<br />
Finally I return to Banyoles to prepare for school, but the last day of my summer holidays I was in Barcelona in the biggest manifestation that took Barcelona. The manifestation was about Catalonia new state in Europe. I was in that manifestation because I'm sick of the Spanish insulting us and stole us saying that is charity. I think that now is the time to say goodbye to<br />
Spain.<br />
<br />
<br />
All in all didn’t travel a lot in this “short” holidays but i enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for listening!!!<br />
