THE TOWN
It's a romantic story between bank robberys, police escapes and toxic friendships. It's a movie with a little bit of all, perfect to see with anyone. It's not the typical story.
Doug MacRay, a bank robber, falls in love with Claire, victim of one of the banks he attacks. Trying that she don't get out nothing and dodging the FBI, Doug decide to plan his next and last atrack, that at the end will decide his future, the future from Claire and also from his friend.
In this movie I love the character of Ben Affleck: Doug MacRay. It makes you think about the criminals, that they aren't always bad persons. Also it makes you see the power of love to change persons, as Doug make it for Claire.
Also I like very much the special effects and specially, the end of the film.
Sincerely, I love this film and I doesn't know what to say about anything that I doesn't like. Maybe that in a pair moments it's a little bit boring because it's slow, but it changes quickly.
My general opinion about the film is, so you can see it, very good. It's my favourite film. I recommend it to everyone.
My star rating: ****a masterpiece

CHRISTMAS
"In 4 weeks we have Christmas here!!" I think this is was many children are thinking about.
I remind when I was little, Christmas was my favourite party. I have loved the Christmas story, from Santa Claus and the factory in the North Pole.
Well, I think that with the years and when you discover that Santa Claus doesn't exist, the magic is lost, because then you only want that Christmas arrives for the gifts.
Nevertheless, Christmas is special: the cold ouside and in the house the fireplace(or the stove hahaha), the family united and the perfect food that you try to get down in the next 2month. And clerly the gifts!!

DUBAI
One day I know I will go to Dubai on holiday, I love it! It's all full of luxury, so different from what we are used to see.
The basic points are:
-25º15'52"N 55º18'42"E
-2 213 845 population
-emir: Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum
It's the most popular city in the United Arab Emirates, and a important business city. Dubai is a important tourist destinity, specially in the shop sector. There are 2 luxury hotels: the Burj Al Arab and the Burj Khalifa(the highest in the world: 828m), 2 artificial ports: Mina Rashid and Jebel Ali and 2 artifificials islands: The World and The Palm Islands.
Dubai is the country with less unemployment in the world. This has attracted many persons of other countrys to move here for better future expectations.
Dubai is strongly influenced by the islam and the arab society, we can see it in the etiquette rules and the vestment of the people, the literature, the gastronomy and on the art.
I think Dubai is a interesting country to visit, but not to live there.

AUTOAVALUATION
After see the video, I realize that our presentation is too short. We only have explain the basic things of each point, where there is soooo much to explain. I think we did it too short because the English languatge is not so easy for us as for others, so we wouldn't did it too much large because we had fear that we pronunciate all bad. I believe we must make it more large but with many simple sentences with easy words we know.
About my pronunciation in the video I think I can do it more better, because I can hear my Spanish accent. The problem is that I was really nervous because it was my first presentation in my new class and for me speaking fluid English is very complicated, so I have shame of do it bad.

And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never going to find you faking
No, no, no
Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are and where it's sad you see
You're making me laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes

Hi Lourdes! How are you?
Well, I’m going to explain a little bit of my life.
My name is Nadia Arenas and I was born on the 20th of July 1998. Now I’m 16 years old.
I have one brother and one sister, but they live with my father and his wife in another house.
In contrast to many Disney films, I love my stepmother. She is a friend for me.
My name is Nadia Arenas and I was born on the 20th of July 1998. Now I’m 16 years old.
I have one brother and one sister, but they live with my father and his wife in another house.
In contrast to many Disney films, I love my stepmother. She is a friend for me.
My mother’s family is from Germany, so I can speak German. But I don’t like it. My father’s family is from Andalucía, I love the land and the people too.
I like sports (last school year I went to the gym in Empuriabrava, but this year I’m too lazy for it), but I love watching them. For example, I’m a passionate football viewer, in special my team Real Madrid. And I’m a Cristiano Ronado fanatic.
You see I’m a normal girl: I love laughing, parties, summer, my friends... And I hope that it won’t be too difficult this year.
See you in class!! Kisses
Nadia
