I changed my mind When I was a teenager, I used top ay attention to what people said about me. In high school, a private institution, it was very important to have good marks and be popular. However, when I grew up, I discovered that the things that make us happy are other. For instance: surround yourself with good and sincere people, enjoy every moment and to feel good about myself.

Uber: the taxis of the future I'm certainly not alone in my choice of favourite software application. Uber is one step ahead of the taxis. This tool locates you by the GPS of your mobile phone and sends a car which will take you to desired destination. Nevertheless what makes Uber special is that you will know the price before requesting that the car pick you up. In this way, moving around the city will not cost you an arm and a leg. More and more people are starting to use this useful application besides the enterprise is always improving to offer a more effective service. For this reason, it can be a perfect alternative to taxis and even the subway or buses. But, people who make long displacements around the city or go to the airport are the most benefited by the advantages and prices of Uber. Despite the advantages of this application it can be enhanced. For example, the waiting time until the car arrives must be reduced and Uber should expand to other cities because currently the service is only active in Madrid and Barcelona. I am a frequent user of this service I am always surprised by the kindness of the driver and the cleaning of the car. I recommend Uber to anyone who wants an alternative to public transport and needs to move around the city but also make ends meet.

Which type of present do you prefer? When a person surprises you with a present, a homemade item is a fantastic option. However, if we prefer intangible things, an unforgettable experience is another way. This choice will depend on the occasion to be celebrated. On the one side, there are things that money can not buy and only our hands can make them. Thereby, the gift will be unique, personalize and we will avoid entering in consumerism which currently prevails in our society. Furthemore, the recipient of the surprise will value the time spent on his gift. On the other hand, we know the emotion that causes us to receive a gift-wrapped present, nevertheless to enjoy an amazing experience is as good as the first option. In fact, if we live matchless moments, these will always be kept in our memory. Not only depends on money or planning, also is the company important in this type of present. But, what kind of experiences can we offer as a gift to someone else? A little trip, go to a concert or, only, spend a different day. To sum up, the experiences are the best to receive because material things are easy to get nonetheless living incredible moments are more difficult to achieve. We must not forget that we only live once and each moment in our life is unrepeatable, thus enjoy it.

My favourite film Palmeras en la nieve is a spanish feature-length film directed by Fernando Garcia Molina. It tells about the love between people of different social classes, colonialism and racism. The story began with Clarence, a girl who finds out a letter. It is related with the past that his father, Jacobo, and uncle, Kilian, lived in Bioko (Guinea) when this territory was a Spanish colony. She travels to Bioko and discovers the secret of a forbidden love story. The location of the film is one of the strengths. Palmeras en la nieve was recorded in exotic places like Colombia and Gambia, however in the film also we can see the cold, wide and white Pyrenees. The plot is based on a book with the same name written by Luz Gabás. In comparaison with the novel, the film is shorter and faster and there are important details deleted. Definetely, the film was a superproduction because it had a big budget and won two Goya awards. If I were you, I wouldn’t miss this drama film.

If you need me, call me When I have a difficult time or a complicated season, my best plan to disconnect is call on my aunt, Pilar, the funniest person I know. Pilar is my father’s sister and she’s only 32. Therefore, the age diffence between us is only 7 years! For this reason our relation is absolutely fantastic. She has a lot of positive qualities, however her best talent is the ability to turn bad things in nicer situations. How does she do it? Pilar is always with a smile in her mouth and she loves making people laugh with hilarious stories about her busy life. My aunt also loves doing videos where she appears telling jokes while she is making funny faces. After, she sends them to me and always accompanies them with the text: “If you need me, call me”. Pilar always backs me up in my decisions and this, for me, is very important. I would like to say that I love to surround myself with people who transmit good vibes and for this, Pilar is the best person I have ever met.

It is better to live in the city than the countryside? There are many different things between the life in the city and in the countryside. Some of these are activities to do in the spare time, which is better for our health and public facilities that we can find in each of these places. Let us begin by saying that if w ego to the countryside, we can enjoy the environment and do outdoor sport. By contrast, in an urban place, people can spend their free time in a mall. Secondly, it is also important to talk about health. In view of this, in a rural región is normal to breath fresh air. Nevertheless, this is more complicated in a town because the pollution is present. Finally, to live in a city offers more public facilities. For instance, there are more hospitals and schools while in a village, sometimes, people must go to other places to enjoy these services. To sum up, I do not agree that life in the city is better. For me the countryside has a better quality of life. However, living better in one place or another depends on each person and their needs.

Describe a third person Dear Christine, I would like to talk about Javier objectively, althought it is difficult for me because he is my best friend and i have known him for a long time. Nevertheless, in the next lines, I will try to be clear and concise about him. He was born in a well-off family and it allowed him to have a good education. He is an intelligent student, in fact he obtained the bachelor with an excellent note, he has a bright brain. However, music and languages were their weak point. In spite of his level, he was to Sidney, last summer, to improve his English. Javier is the oldest brother but he only has a sister, Maria. With her, Javier is a sensitive, responsable and charming brother. He loves her because he has spent a lot of time with Maria due to the work of their parents. As a friend, Javier is shy and sometimes he doesn’t express their feelings but he is always when you need him. He has always good advices for their friends. If I had to highlight an unpopular aspect of him, perhaps, it would be that he is not overly ambitious because he isn’t saucy person. If I were you, I would a person like Javier to spend time with my children. I hope I have helped you and also, I hope to see you soon.

Le chômage Le chômage est un problème très courant dans notre pays. L'Espagne a vécu des années où les taux de chômage étaient minimes parce que la construction était en plein essor. Cela signifie que non seulement les maçons travaillaient, aussi tous les emplois générés par la construction: peintres, électriciens, plombiers ... Par conséquent, ils étaient ans "merveilleux" où le chômage était presque inexistant et la consommation des citoyens a été abattu. Mais tout cela a été une grande bulle difficile à maintenir et en 2008, avec la grande crise financière mondiale, la construction a diminué. Cette situation a fait que tous les emplois liés à ce secteur serait passer d'être au chômage, la consommation doit être réduite dans tous les secteurs et par conséquent le chômage affecté l'ensemble de la population. En fait, l'Espagne a atteint un taux de 26% de chômage, ce fut un désastre! Il est vrai que après une réforme de travail dur, le chômage a baissé dans notre pays mais les emplois créés sont temporaires et sous-payés. Les jeunes récents diplômés sont boursiers ou chômeurs. Malhereusement est très difficile de changer cette situation, mais nous devons continuer à travailler pour améliorer les conditions de travail.
