A fairytale

Rite of passage presentation

Evaluation:

My mistake in th presentation was my lack of communication with my workmates because thought that the presentation was the day after, and obviously it wasn't, but I was clever enough to improvise with all the knowledge I had about the bullet ant. 

My opinion about 1st of Batxillerat

This is the end of my first term in 1st of Batxillerat. This is my first year after my secondary education. This the first of my two years before I go to university. Having passed two months in Batxillerat, I can say that Batxillerat is more difficult than ESO. It is more difficult because some subjects are new, subjects such as philosophy or sciencies of th earth(it is like geology). 

But I must say that the contents of the books hasn't changed dramatically. They have been expanded a bit more.

For me, Batxillerat isn't a radical change of difficulty. I just have to put more effort to get the same marks as last year, which were really good.

Why do I like MMORPG videogames?

MMORPGs are a kind of videogames which lets you play in real-time with a huge number of players, all connected to the same server as you. One of the points why I like this kind of games is the character creator. It's really good that you can create a character of your pleasure, because this way you will be more connected to your character instead of being a character like many others. That's a point that I find really accurate for this type of games. 

Many MMORPGs are games about of creating your character, leveling your character up, and finally get some gear to face dungeons, and several high level monsters. But there are games like World of Warcraft or even Diablo 3 that inside the game is important to get some rank in PvP battles.

PvP is another point of the MMORPGs that I like. The PvP system is a way to know how good is your ability in the game, while you fight against other players. Many players are good, others stink in the PvP, well there are a bit of everything in this type of game.

The last point that I like of the MMORPGs are the huge and beautiful areas that the games have. In games like The Elder Scrolls Online the area where you can play are extremely big, so big that you can compare it with the real world.

Rite of passage

Stag party

Stag party is one of the most common rites of passage in the modern era of the occidental world. Stag party is a party that takes place the day before you get married. It is more common among men, but also women do a stag party.

In a stag party the groom has to be dressed in an hilarrious way, and then they go to a bar to drink alcohol and rave in a disco sometimes. It is common among men to go to a striptease club, because for the groom it is his "last night of freedom".

I cannot talk about women, because I'm not a women, so that's all what I can explain about the stag party.

Control of the world... In my hands?!?

A question that many times I've asked to myself is... What would I do, if the control of our entire world is in my hands? And my answer to this question is... Refuse it. Let me explain why I would refuse it. I know a bit how am I. I have a custom in me, that consist in putting myslef in diferent situations and think what would I do. One of the situations, is the one that I have written some lines over.

My reason the refuse a power like this, is because some time after controling the world, I would become a dictator, a tyrant. With this little knowledge of me, that I've mentioned before, I can make sure that I'll become a dictator. That's why I'll never be a politician. Because having this power, I would solve the global problems, yes, but in me, a hunger of power would change me. I will erradicate from the Earth everyone who don't think like me, don't matter the way when the result is the one you wanted. Having said that, you may think that I will be worser than Adolf Hitler or Stalin, and you are right, I think it too. 

Before I finish, let me ask you a question: are you strong enough to have this power, and  more important, are you strong enough to not change when you have it?

THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES

I know that this movie is from the last year and all this stuff, but I can't stop thinking how incredible was this movie when you see it, on the BIG screen.

This movie is the defining chapter of the trilogy The Hobbit, one of Tolkien's most known books, after The Lord of the Rings. It explains how the journey of Bilbo Baggings in company of the wizard Gandalf the  Grey and the 13 dwarves, led by Thorin Oakenshield, finishes, when the dwarf kingdom of Erebor is sieged by an army of man and elves, in a arguement to divide the fortunes, a massive army of orcs led by Azog tends to conquer Erebor.

I'm a fan of this trilogy and I don't care about people's complaints of this film. D**n, it was freaking awesome, in this film we had all the action we didn't had in the other two films. This will be the last one of the movies that would involve the Tolkien's universe, and I'm proud to have seen this film.

An unforgettable melody

This song is one of my favourites when we talk about videogames soundtrakcs. It is from one of the most known games around the world: The legend of Zelda. I love this song because it makes me film like the hero of the game, Link. I don't know why, but when I'm listening this song, I just close my eyes and imagine myself flying through the sky on a majestic bird(as it happens inside the game, your way of traveling is flying on a big red bird).

As a fan of the The legend of Zelda saga, there's no reason why I don't like this song. Zelda has been part of my life since I when I was 3 years old(yeah, that's more than 13 years ago, such a long time, isn't it?). So it is written in my soul that I would love this song. 

My pride

As I said in my Email to my teacher I've got a thing that fills me with pride. If you have read my post, you'll know what I'm talking about. Yes, I'm talking about my FCE diploma. I reached the level last year, while I was in my last year of secondary education. Many people think that this title is given by the highschools before you go to university, to make sure that you have the level to enter the university. But you have to reach the level by our own. Highschools only prepare you to have the level, then you have to present yourself to the official exams to  get the title. 

The exam has 5 parts: Writing, Reading, Listening, Use of English and finally Speaking. On one hand,the easiest parts for me were the Speaking and the Writing. They were so simple that when I was doing it, I noticed that the words were going outside of me with a fluency that I have never felt. On the other hand, my worst part was the Reading. I don't know why but the Reading was horrible for me. I'm sure that I've made many mistakes that if now I see the exam I would think how stupid this mistake is.

Why my cell's screen always smash?



Link: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3334966/So-S-phone-screens-smash-Formula-reveals-height-spin-rate-cause-dropped-phone-land-face-60-time.html
A physicist has worked out the factors that help to predict whether a mobile phone will land on its screen when dropped. These include where on its centre of gravity it is being held, the height it is dropped from and the length of the phone, along with the material it is made from (illustrated)
This article talks us about how could our cell phone slip from our hand to land, crushing with the floor and finish by having a shattered screen(it is the same way why a toast tends to land butter side down)  explaining this fact with a physical formula.

The Professor Robert Matthews, physicist of the  Aston University, has developed a formula that aims to explain why our cell phones, held when are in use, tend to spin.
Professor Matthews has developed a formula that he claims can predict how a mobile phone will land when dropped. L is the length of the smartphone, g is the acceleration due to gravity, p = 2δ/L is the 'overhang parameter', δ is the overhang distance, and θ is the angle of the smartphone when it starts its descent
Opinion:
It's funny to know that somebody has spend his time developping a formula like that, I don't know for other people, but for me is really hilarrious. Now I know how to avoid my cell phone falls. If the angle is not bigger tan 30 degrees I'm sure that my cell phone will stay in my hand instead of fall and break my screen.
