In the last years, the fashion has been taking importance in our current society, the people are a lot more worried about what they are wearing if we compare it with the people of the last years. I think it's because of the growing economy in the western countries, it has allowed to spend more money in different things, and one of these things could be the clothes and complements to look good. Nowadays, the fashion is a way to show our style, and our style defines us as we are.
Now, the fashion can define if you are a member of a "urban tribe" it's common in the urban tribes to wear all the same style, and it has taken a lot of importance, because there are a lot of people who's a member of some of these tribes, and they are growing a lot in numbers, which it takes a growth of the fashion.
The TV or other communication ways help to stablish fashions too,

Is the reggateon bad for your health?
Is
the reggaeton bad for your health?
I decided to write an essay about this
because, personally, I hate this “music”
genre, and I don’t hate it without any reason, just because it’s a bad
influence and shitty music.
Some arguments that I have:
It doesn’t have any kind of structural music.
The letters of those “songs” never show anything useful,
or send a message.
Often shows the womans as sexual objects, and then the
listeners believe it
Its musical base is very poor, it just consists in a drum
and some few electronical sounds.
A study has demonstrated that the reggaeton is bad, it
consisted in put 3 plants in different rooms, one plant had metal, other one
had classic music,and the remaining plant, reggaeton. That plant didn’t grow,
while the other 2 yes.
For me, that music, is just an “annoying sound”.
Self-Evaluation
I don’t have the video to upload here right now, but I
remember exactly what happened.
Personally, I think I didn’t presentated the work too
bad, It’s true that I had blocked a lot of times for a few seconds, but I didn’t
prepared It before, I mean, I studied the tradition of the Bar-Mitzvah, how is
it celebrated, the age when they celebrate it and becomes an adult, but I just
limited to write and assimilate just a little of the presentation, so when I had
to talk, I got nervous and then blocked.
I would put myself a 6 mark, keeping in mind that I didn’t
read so much, and I tried to be the most fast as possible and articulate and
pronunciate everything correctly.
At the end, the presentation didn’t last 10 minutes,
we’ve failed in that point, at least the video had made the presentation
longer.
Book review
Book review
The book that I’ve chosen is called “Bleach” it’s a Japanese
manga created by Tite Kubo in 2001.I chose that manga because I’m a huge fan (close to being a fanatic) of
it since more than 1 year, and now I’ll do a short review.
Spoiler alert!!
Spoiler alert!!
Author and first steps:
Before starting working on Bleach, Tite Kubo had
already a manga called “Zombie Powder”,
it was published in Japan for a few months, but finally was cancelled due the unpopularity.
Then, he created a pilot chapter of Bleach, but firstly wasn’t accepted by the
publishers because it seemed to a manga that already existed. After that, Tite
Kubo felt in a depression and didn’t worked much, but one day, Akira Toriyama, the
creator of Dragon Ball, (The most important shonen manga in those days)
encouraged him to keep working hard and try some things. Tite took his Bleach
pilot and changed It a lot, and finally in 2001, Bleach was published in the “Weekly
Shonen Jump magazine”, and became in one of the most important Shonen mangas.
Story:
The story of Bleach focuses in a 15 years boy,
Ichigo Kurosaki, who has the ability to see, touch, and talk to the spirits of
the death people. One day, helping a spirit who was getting disturbed by some
boys, he meets a shinigami (A Japanese death personification,) called Rukia
Kuchiki. In an incident with a devil spirit (Hollw) she traspasses her
shinigami powers to Ichigo in order to defeat the Hollow and save his family,
who were'd been attacked by the hollow. Now with shinigami powers, he will help
to Rukia till she recovers her powers while he learns the office of a
Shinigami. But what Ichigo don’t knows, is that the shinigami powers trespass is
a levy delict in the Soul Society (The place where the shinigamis live) and
then, he will have to manage a situation where he’s being pursued by the Soul
Society, and try to save Rukia, who’s been condemned to death for her delict.
Main characters:
Ichigo Kurosaki:
He’s the older son of the family, he has two little
sisters. Since he was a child, he got bothered by some guys because he has the
hair orange, due to his hair color, he has developed a rebel character, because
the professors consider him as a rebel, but he’s a very good person and always is
trying to help the others.
In his childhood, he wasn't able to differentiate between alive and death people, finally, in a try to help a "spirit" that was about to suicide, his mother died trying to protect him in front of him, after that, he took the blame of his mother's death, and he swore to help and protect everyone that he could.

Rukia Kuchiki:
Rukia Is a 150 years old shinigami, during her childhood
in the Soul Society, she lived in on of the poorest districts of the
Rukongai (The place where all the souls that are not shinigamis live),
constantly forced to steal or do anything to survive. When she grew up, she decided to become a shinigami, because she had spiritual powers and
could live In the Seretei (A part of the Soul Society reserved only to shinigamis).
The Kuchiki family, one of the four great nobles houses in the Soul Society,
decided to adopt her, and then entered in the thirteen division, where she
became a true shinigami. In a mission to patrol in search of hollows in Karakura, she met
Ichigo, and the history of Bleach began.
Actually, Bleach has more than 60 volumes, where which
one contains more than 10 chapters, and it’s not finished yet, a new chapter is published every Thursday in the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. An anime adaptation of
Bleach was started in 2004, but was cancelled 1 or 2 years ago.

Star wars: The Force Awakens Trailer (News)
Resume:
Some days ago, the
first trailer of Star Wars: The Force Awakens was released; the trailer lasts
88 seconds and shows some of the new features in the Star Wars universe.
The movie will be
released in 15 December of 2015, and will be the next part of: "Star Wars:
The Return of the Jedi", the last film in the argument history, released
31 years ago.
The Star Wars
copyrights were bought by Disney a few years ago for 4billion dollars and they
are planning to make a new trilogy.
Opinion:
It's true that
It's a very esperated movie by the Star Wars fandom (where I'm included) but
there's a weird feeling for almost everyone, Star Wars was an important part of
my infancy, and the fact that is Disney who will make the movie, and not
Lucasfilms, Is scaring me, maybe because I think they would ruin It and change
what actually Star Wars Is.
In the other hand,
Disney is planning to reunite the old Star Wars cast, Mark Hamill (Luke Skywlaker),
Harrison Ford (Han Solo), and Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia), and I'd like to
see them again in a movie.
I hope they make a good movie, at the alture of the rest.
I hope they make a good movie, at the alture of the rest.

Europe (Essay)
Should Europe be united?
Europe is called the “old continent”, because almost
all the important history has happened here, and during a lot of time, was the
cultural/ economical/ technological centre of the world.
We’ve a common history, not always we’ve been in agreement
between us, we have differences, and we worked in a different way for some
time. But now with the creation of the European Union, would be easier to make
an unique county in Europe, the sentiment of be united arrived after the second
great war, and then in Europe the things seemed to have calm down, especially after
the cold war, considering that now we have the same economical market and
interests.

Is competition good? (Essay)
Is
competition good?
The competition is factor
that encourages realizing or being over the rest in almost everything task we
do, whatever if it’s just a friend-competition or a business competition between
two enterprises.
I think to have a
competitive spirit is a good vantage in order to be a successful one; It will
help you to try to exceed your own abilities, to motivate yourself and be over
your rivals.
But to be a very
competitive person could be bad in excess; you would lose your friends and
close people.
There’s an ideal
nexus between to be competitive and to be a very competitive person,
Should we be independents? (Essay)
SHOULD WE BE
INDEPENDENTS?
The Catalonian independence is a topic that has been
increasing in our country a lot for the last years, mainly for the economical crisis
that we’re living right now.
Well, I am not following the matter much closer,
because I think I would be glad whatever if Catalonia were independent or not. But
I think that the reasons in pro of the union would win. There are a lot of
reasons in pro and in counter, but the most reason that I follow is: We should
stay united, because we are very small countries compared with some big powers,
and would be useless to split up, in the union there’s the force.
Has science gone too far? (Essay)
HAS SCIENCE
GONE TOO FAR?
Has science gone too far? It’s a question that a lot
of people try to answer, maybe the fact that the technology had evolved faster
than ever in the last century, could make someone to think about how the
technology could arrive in 200 hundred years.
I think it’s a dangerous thing to keep in mind, because
in nowadays, with all the research stuff someone with low-ethic principles just
could create something over the humankind possibilities, like a very strong
virus, or a mortal weapon, and he could do it easily.
The science should be moderated, and focused firstly
to the research of how to resolve our actual problems, and not to search for
others.
Fugu fish in Crimea (News)
Resume:
Recently in Sevastopol, Crimea, the fishermans of the region had finding for some time "fugu fish".
It's a very strange event, because the fugu is a tropical fish, practically impsossible to find in cold waters.
It's a growing menace for the local fauna, considering that the fugu is a very poisonous fish. It has a class of cyanide and could kill someone with just a tiny quantity
Specialists had arrived to the conclusion that the fugu has arrived to the Mediterranian trought the Suez channel, and then rushed the Black sea (where Sevastopol is)
Opinion:
I think it's a very weird event, how could a tropical fish, commonly found in the Pacific ocean did arrvive to the Black sea? I don't know. In Japan, the fugu is considered an exquisite meal, maybe now we could eat it often now that It's closer to us.

Rush: Move with speed/ Invade quickly
Poisonous: Verinós

DIfferences and similyties between "The best of times" and "Thirteen"
DIfferences and similyties between "The best of times" and "Thirteen"
Each movie/book speaks about the difficults that the adolescense takes, it could be a hard age to live, and there are some factors that influence in the behaviour and road to the bad ending.
For example, Chee Seng, firstly was a happy young boy, but since their parents broke, he passed trought such bad things, his history is similar to Trace's one, they went trought the bad way, they left their homework, had discussions with their family, influenced by some bad friend that they just took some issues to them, etc...
But there are differences too, Tracey just got bad influenced because she wanted to be popular and not be herself anymore. With Chee Seng was different, he saw how his parents broke, while his father was infidel to his mother, he saw how his dog was murdered by a car and then he blamed his friends.
Finally he got influenced by a bad boy because he was alone, without anyone to talk about his problems he went to the bad way and took some problems with the law, and then some sentimentals too. But finally he managed to solve his problems with the help of his beloved familiars.
In the end, both of them seemed to had solved a lot of their problems and it seems that they are going to the good way.

Rebel Song
The rebel song that I've choosen is "Numb" of Linkin Park, my favourite music band.
It talks about he's under the control of another person, and he wants to be more dependent and be like himself.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXYiU_JCYtU
A fragment of the song:
It talks about he's under the control of another person, and he wants to be more dependent and be like himself.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXYiU_JCYtU
A fragment of the song:
"Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
'Cause everything that you thought I would be,
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take"
