FILM REVIEW "DEATH NOTE"

Yesterday with one friend rented the film Death Note. It's a japanese film of a comic serie. The history is about one boy who find one note in the street with the inscription "Death Note". After, he discover that if he write inside the name of one person it dies. He starts to kill criminals. The police start to investigate but can't find who is, and one day arrive one detective of the FBI called L. A lot of population in Japan loves the "work" that Kira (the name that they put to this boy) is doing.
The film is about the course of Kira to doesn't be discovered for L, and they are very inteligent.
There are a creature, the shirigami, that lives with Kira and who only can see the persons who have one Death Note. I love this creature.
I like the film so much because I read the comics and I love them, the history is creative and have action.

FIRE SHOW OF EXCALIBUR

This December for "la Marató de TV3" the action theatre company Excalibur had one fire show in Figueres and I went to do some photos.
This morning I was near Olot with Xiprers al Vent and one of the boys of Excalibur, who was there too, and me went to Figueras in the midday.
I love fire and the show was very good. I enjoyed a lot because they let me stay in a very good position to do photos... and I did a lot!
When the show finished they passed a bottle to put some money for the Marato causes.
Really, they are very good doing their shows and I admire them for this.
Now I put here some photos that I took. I hope you like it!

Dear Madam Lluisa Pintó,

I started ESO in 2006 and tw of my sisters studied here some time ago, so I can have an idea of how the things hace changed.
When I started, people of batxillerat could go out of the center when a teacher wasn't in it. Now we can't. I think it's a waste of time for us and the guard teachers, who can do better things with their time too. That's, for me, the worse change. I can't understand the reason for this.
I can't speak about the computer in 1st and 2nd ESO because I don't like it, but not for the internet problems of the school or other things that happen now, it's only that I that's no good for the students.
Some things that I think that have to change are put mirrors in the bathrooms (at least in the girls ones) enhance the "aula taller" for more students and start more projects to decorate the school (like the murals) but extend it to the classrooms.

Sincerely,

Elvira Fina

MAGMA

The first of February was my birthday and my boyfriend's present was a two hours night session in Magma, a balnearium.
I went to Figueres to meet him and we went to Santa Coloma de Farners.
I had never been in a balnearium and I like it.
There was a warm water pool, a fresh pool and two exterior pools, on of these of warm water.
I loved the warm exterior pool and we passed a lot of time looking the stars.
We went to the saunas too. There were three different types. We first went to one that was at 60ºC nd without vapor. It was so strange because it was a very warm and dry atmosphere and in two minutes you were swearing! After we tried one that was dry too but at 50ºC and with light colour changes and menthol smell. Finally we went to the last one that was of vapor. I didn't like a lot the last one because with the vapor I felt a little bit dizzy.

MY NEW SNOWBOARD

My Christmas present of this year was a Snowboard.
I bought it in December on the internet.
I wasted a lot of time looking for it and wanting one that I liked and thar wasn't very expensive.
Finally and after seeing a lot of boards and bindings I chose one Forum board amn one Flux bindings. The board is very beautiful and the bindings are very basic and black.
I bought the boots before the board and the bindings in "La Roca Village" and I love it, they are very comfortable and beautiful.
First I had a lot of problems to buy the board because the page of the shop didn't let me create a acount, but finally with Nuria's help we discovered the problem.
When the board arrived I was very escited and now I'm very nervous, waiting for the first snow day of the year... this Saturday!

FIRST SNOW DAY OF THE SEASON

I practise snowboard and I love it. The 8th of December I went to Font Romeu and I snowboarded for the first time this season.
We left Castello at 7am with some of my family, Maria's family and one friend.
When we arrived at Font Romeu there was a lot of fogg!!
We thought that the station was losed and we were very sad, but for our surprise it was open!
We went to the town to rent the material and started the journey.
The fg was very dense but you can ski or snwboard without problems.
At the end of the day the fogg started to be denser but it was the hour to return to Castello and there wasn't any problem.
There wasn't a lot of people and I loved it because you didn't have to do queues and the skii slopes were empty.
We enjoyed the day a lot... but I need more!

MALLOL

The first Sunday of December I went to Mallol, a town next to Olot, to see one friend with Exclibur Teather Company, who does medieval fights.
The Mallol town is very little, but all the town is up hill, and they do the show at the top... at the end I couldn't breathe!
I went to Olot by bus and there my sister met me and took me to Mallol. There I had to find where they were and i had surprised my friend because he didn't know that I was there.
They had three shows one of these very funny.
At the lunch time I had a sandwich of half bagette of meat and I was very full and ne of the girls of Excalibur was ill and left me all her dinner... I ate it because it was very good but finally i couldn't move...
At the end of the day they had to go to medieval dinner and I went home with my sister.
It was a very good day and I enjoyed it a lot. I love go to the shows of Excalibur, but now I have to wait some months for the next...

1st day "Xiprers al Vent"

In Castelló the mayor wants one "cau".
The "caus" are like a summer school, every Saturdays two hours, but there, the children (between 6 and 17 years) are voluntary there, they are motivated and are there because they want to be, and this is a big difference between one "cau" and a summer school, where a lot of the children are there because of their parents.
Some people of Castello wants this and went to Xiprers al Vent for our training, because the mind of the "heads" (the name of the monitors) is different, they want to put on the cildren the responsibility, the team work, the respect for others... and because the children are, the same, a lot of years going, it's possible.
Well, another time to the first day. We, 8 boys and girls, went to the cau one hour after to speak with the cau's important heads. Finally i'm with the wolves, the children between 8 and 11 years, and I like it a lot.
That afternoon we did a treasure hunt in Figueres, that was very funny, they had to find some envelopes where were a clue. The funniest was one that the chindren had to find two squid in the restauranrs, and they could do it!
The afternoon was very funny and I'm waiting for the next time very anxiously.
