STEVE JOBS

2012-02-03T18:40:00.000+01:00

BY: PABLO HERRERA, 2BTO-B

Steve Paul Jobs, co-founder and director of Apple and Pixar, was an entrepreneur since his chillhood, showing his way to face life with adversity, and takING the failure as necessary. Unlike other geniuses of technology, such as Bill Gates OR Mark Zuckerberg, Jobs never finished college. On October 5, 2011, he died in his Palo Alto home, aged 56. On the one hand, many people think that it is clear that Jobs thought differently and changed the world from their own thinking. Contributing thoughts and ways of existing work, but combined, and guided by him, gAve rise to success.

On the other hand, there were many people who criticized him for envy because of the large business and economic empire that he had formed.

In my opinion, Steve Jobs was, is and will be one of the great geniuses of technology and a great entrepreneur. It is a shame that a person like this dies, but remembered not only as a great businessman but as a great person.

ROMEO AND JULIET, MY OPINION

2012-02-01T19:18:00.000+01:00

BY ALICIA MARTÍN, 2BTO-C

This novel was published in 1597 by William Shakespeare. In my opinion, Romeo and Juliet is a very romantic novel. It is based on the tragic fate of two lovers. At that time, the parents had to marry their daughters to a gentleman who HAD TO be very formal and very polite. This situation led to the tragic end of the couple.

This play is one of the most important BY William Shakespeare, and in my opinion Romeo and Juliet is a play which simbolized a new time in literature.

Romeo and Juliet has got a lot of versions, some versions are for small children, and others are for adults.

For me, Romeo and Juliet is a novel which is easy to read although some words are very old and difficult to understand.

RESURRECTION FEST 2011

2012-01-18T12:58:00.000+01:00

BY ALAIN NORIEGA, 2BTO-D

Resurrection Fest is an annual music festival. It is celebrated in Viveiro, in the province of Lugo. This festival HAS BEEN anually celebrated since 2006. There you can find bands of punk, rock and hardcore genres. I went there this year, and there were people from all over Spain, Portugal and France. International bands are invited to this festival. Some of those famous bands are Bring Me The Horizon, Architects, Bullet For My Valentine, Your Demise, Pennywise, Comeback Kid, among others. It's a 3-day music festival, including contests, games, clothes draws, etc. I stayed there for 5 days, sleeping in a tent in a park, relaxing and visiting the city of Viveiro. Resurrection Fest was one of my best experiences in my entire life. I bet I'm going again next year without any doubt!

STEVE JOBS

BY: JULIO CALLEALTA, 2BTO-B

The death of Steve Jobs is one of the most important news around the world.

Steve Paul Jobs was born the 24th of October 1955 in San Francisco. The Jobs family moved from San Francisco to Mountain View, California when Steve was five years old. He created Apple in 1976.

In the 80´s, he invented the first personal computer. In 1986, he acquired the computer graphics division of Lucas film Ltd, which was spun off as Pixar Animation Studios. In the 90’s, he released Toy Story. Some years later, he changed the music industry with the I pod.

Apple invented a lot of things, like the I phone or the I pad. After having all this, Steve Jobs have died.

Many people are sad because of his death. I think students will study Steve Jobs´ inventions at school.

He will be always rememberED as somebody who changed the world.

NY CITY: AN OPINION

2012-01-13T12:04:00.000+01:00

BY: JAVIER GÓMEZ PASTRANA, 2BTO-D

When I visited NY, I was amazed by its building estructure. The city is known for the abundance of high buildings and skyscrapers.

The city is crowded, thousands of people walk from one place to another. Taxis are all over streets: Thousands of yellow cars, one after another. Times Square is the center of its tourism. There is nothing like it. Also, New York streets are full of stores and restaurants.

Besides the beauty of its building, there is also bad things about it. NY is a city designed to spend money. The trash is thrown in corners until someone picks it up.

In my opinion, the best place in Ny city is "the Statue of Liberty". Its suprising in every way.

In conclusion, NY is one of the mosT beautiful cities around the world, and it´s perfect if you want to spend a holiday, but from my point ofn view, NY isn´t a perfect place to live in, becAuse NY is designed to spend money. Nothing like Spain ;-)
