I think that I have improved my english. For example my first post in my blog was in 4th ESO and it was titled My mother. I described my mother but with very simple words. It was a short description because I was in the low group. And now I think I can write longer posts.
I'm not good in writing. I understand the texts and readings, but I don't know how to explain all the ideas, but I understand the listenings. And finally I think that my pronunciation isn't bad enough.
The activities that helped me to improve my English skills were the your says, watching films and the listenings. Because there were some words I don't know how to say it but with the movies I knew how to pronunce it. And with the your says I could put the things I learnt in 1st Batxillerat. Also with the oral presentations we use some technical words and use them in our posts.
I didn't found anything useless because we can learn a lot of things with all the activities we do in class, the homework and the oral presentation.
In second batxillerat we should do the your says to impove more our skills, vocabulary dossier to learn more vocabulary and we should read more books.
In my opinion, the next year we can pick a topic we are interested.

Have we made the world a better place?
A lot of people think that the world is a better place now than the past. They think this becasue they only think for themselves and don't care about the others. In my opinion I think the world isn't a better place now.
First of all one of the issue is the society. The society now I think is it the same as the past. Why?
Because a lot of men mistreat the women because they think that they are more powerful and more important than them.
Adding to that, the racism and the bullying are big problems in our society. They are connected because someone who bullies does this because the bullied one, is from another country. This can happen everywhere and very few people do something. The bullying and racism can give the suicide of the bullied people.
The second issue in this world are the wars. This currently happens more in the islamic countries, like Syria or Egypt. A few people don't care about the wars, but this is because they aren't in these countries fighting for their liberty.
Everyday a lot of people die and we can't do anything for them.
The people only do posts on Facebook saying this: "1 Like 1 help" or "Like to save this poor people". But this doesn't help anyone.
The third issue is the planet. This planet has limited resources and we are using a lot of them, and in the future we won't gave anything. For example the deforestation of the Amazon. It was a big forest and it was beautiful but now it's a desert. They chop the trees only for money, but the money doesn't buy the happiness.
And finally the pollution. We are producing a lot of CO2 and this can give a place to the acid rain. One of the most CO2 contributor are the factories, bringing out all the smoke. A lot of people don't know that we gave only one planet.
In conclusion I think the world isn't a better place. Maybe some years ago it used to be, but now it's like we are going back in time with the society issues, the wars that give a lot of dead and the issues with our planet and we have to share this planet with everybody.

Steins;Gate the Movie: Burdened Domain of Déjà vu
The movie is the sequel of the series called Steins; Gate, the plot is centred in the love of the two characters, Makise Kurisu and Okabe Rintarou. The movie takes place one year after the series, where the main character, Okabe Rintarou, has travelled through the time to help his friends.
Now they live in peace, but some day he has a problem and he watches what is happening in the other timelines. Finally he disappears from the world and only one of his friends remembers him. Makise Kurisu has to find the solution and bring back his love.
The music was beautiful and the scenario was done to perfection. Also the animation can be one of the best animations.
I recommend this movie, if you like the animation movies, but if you didn't see the series you won't understand a lot of things.
Star rating: ***

Help the people
When I have free time I spend some time in Facebook and Twitter. Everything is normal but there are some posts that I'm not fond of. The reason is the next.
Someone publishes and image and the description of the image says: "Like and share if you want to help these people". They put a poor people image and some nice words, but this is useless.
They don't do anything, they only lie. I think they do this because they want popularity in the social medias. I think when they go out to the street, and they see someone poor begging, they don't give them anything. If they really want to help, they should go to a NGO and help.

The people's problem
In our society a lot of people insults someone because they are afraid of the strongest one. The people who are stronger than the others, can use they force to intimidate and they can also give orders to the weakest ones. The "weakest" people aren't fond on flaming and insulting the people, but they are obliged to do it, and if they don't do it, the person who is in power will kick or hit them.
It's the same as bullying in schools but, right now, every day, someone is getting bullied.
I think that the bully has to put in the other people places and they have to know what the bullied people feels and what they suffered all the time when they were insulted by them.
What the people has to do is go to help the bullied people and go to the police and talk about the bully and what they do.
I think that's the only solution to this problem, because if we don't say anything, who will do it?

The dream of many people
Sometime in your life you thought you wanted to be rich. Why do the people think this?
They think if they were rich, they will have a lot of things, like a Ferrari or a similar car, a maid, a pool and a lot of money. They only know this face of this life. The other face is the next: The rich and famous people can't go outside because there will be a lot of photographers and they will take pictures of their private life. If they meet a girl the paparazzi will make up a new rumour about them.
They haven't got any time for themself because they are busy with the work or going to TV shows. They also have to go to places to help the poor people. If a rich one don't give money to help someone who needs help, his fans will flame and insult him.
On conclusion I think that this life is better, because we have got time for ourselfs and we know what is happines and friendship is. A lot of them can not know what is this feeling because maybe they forget this feelings or they don't know what is it.

Hatred and GTA V
A few days ago, a new game has been released and it's called Hatred. In this game you have to kill al the people in the city, because the character hates everyone and everything. Maybe the people thinks that is a bit violent, but the player only destroys pixels, only pixels.
The game has a good music and the graphics are beautiful. Where is the problem with this game?
The problem is this: The gaming platform Steam has retired this game from his list for a while because it was very violent, but they put it again, and Gabe Newell gave them some money to apologise for the problem. Then Twitch banned the game for the same reason. They banned the game because is rated Mature only and this level is like the level of porn. Why the people can not stream this game, but they can stream the new Grand Theft Auto V? GTA is worst than hatred, because it's more realistic than this game.

The Steins Gate choice!
Some time ago I discovered a series named Steins;Gate. When I started watching this, I could not figure out anything because it was very strange. But at the end everything was explained and I was surprised.
Why I'm fond of this series?
Why I'm fond of this series?
The reason it's because it has everything. There's love, comedy and some action. The main theme is the time travel. They use a phone and a microwave oven to send mails to the past, and change some facts. Only the main character knows what happened before they send the mail. But when they send a mail, they the main character changes from the alpha timeline to the beta one and he needs to come back or his friend will die.

Princess Mononoke
This movie is from Hayao Miyazaki and it was animated by the Studio Ghibli. The movie talks about the story of Ashitaka, his village, a God and one girl named Mononoke. It's from Hayao Miyazaki and so it's very good.
Ashitaka's village is attacked by a giant boar possesed by something. Ashitaka saves the village, but something enters in his arm and the story starts. He has to leave the village and go to find a God to save his arm. In his travel, he saves some people and they thanked him with food and one place to sleep. In the other village he meets new people and the Princess Mononoke, a girl rised by two wolves.
What I liked in the movie it was the characters and their personalities. Because there are greedy people, nice people, etc. The Original Soundtrack it's very good and I've enjoyed listening it in the movie and out the movie. And the plot was original and in some parts it was very funy.
My opinion of this movie is that you have to see it because is very emotive, too. I hope Hayao Miyazaki continues doing more movies like this because in the Japanese animation is one of the best.
If I have to give a star rating, I will give 4 stars,

Police raid gamer's office while he was live-streaming
Link
Summary
An american streamer was playing when several officers entered the room and arrested him. The boy was playing a game called Counter Strike. He was streaming via Twitch when the officers entered and shouted to him. Someone called the officers telling that a terrorist is there. The term is called Swatting. The game continued and at the end can be heard this: Terrorist Win.
Opinion
I think that is not true and this has to be a prank, because when the officers entered the room, one of them looked at the cam and the screen. But if this is true I guess they have to find the culprit and punish him because it's not funny to call the officers. Because maybe someone important is happening and they are in a house with a boy playing a video game.

Akira Toriyama
I will talk about Akira Toriyama and his best work. He is a japanese man who was born in Nagoya, Japan. He started with the manga industry in 1977. His first manga was Dr.Slump. This manga talks about the Penguin Village and his habitants, it talks about Arale exaclty. This was his first work and a lot of people like it. Some time later, he started working with Dragon Ball and it was a great work and everyone like it, too.
After this he started to work in another projects and designing characters to games like Chrono Trigger, Blue Dragon, Dragon Ball and many others.
I think he is the best manga author in the world because he has inspired a lot of people to draw, like me. If I hadn't seen Dragon Ball, I would not have liked to draw.

Gap Year
I will talk about a gap year if I do it. If I had to choose a country it will be the United Kingdom, but if I can go to a country where don't speak English primarily I will go to Japan.
The first thing I will do is find a place to stay. I have a friend in London so I will talk to him and ask if I stay with him for a time, but if I can't stay with him, I will rent a flat.
After this I will go to the Big Ben or the British Museum, and then go to some cities to visit. I will try new food and of course I will learn English.

Football
In what many people currently think is in football, because when they watch it they feel good and they forget all they sorrows or troubles. I think that in Spain, the government uses the football to hide the crisis and all the problems in the world.
But watch football occasionally is good and if you love it, good for you. But think about all the players and the money they earn with all the matches or with the promo they do. If they give some money to the poor people in Spain, for example, there won't be crisis anymore.
