Should we give importance to our future plans ?



More and more people are getting obsessed about how their life has to be , family, friends, work... But it is really necessary ? I don´t think we should worry too much for it moreover I totally disagree with it.
Life changes every second  maybe today we are part of a very prestigious company and tomorrow we are unemployed or we think  we have found someone special and then we find out he is not what we expected. It´s impossible to plan our future and be sure it is going to work .
Societys prejudice has become a strong influential instrument ,we are used to it because is what we have been taught  but it is really indispensible to follow it?  while we are down in the dumps  when we fail, when someone breaks our heart or when we get demoted, failures doesn't exist to make us even more sad, they are our leverage , our elevator to success. Ones we know how to treat them is so much easy to face all those millions problems left over.
 No one has a perfect job , a fantastic husband and beautiful children and I am sure most of us don´t have what we had desired once , it is our work to make whatever we got unique and matchless. People´s opinions , it can sounds like a topic but  does not matter at all.
Felling confidence in my opinion is the most important skills . If you do not want to get marry don´t get it , don't have children if you don´t want to , travel all around, meet different people, cultures and never give up on those goal you have set they make us going through  the good way it is not a dilemma if weren´t able to achieve our ambition.
 It seems to me that planning our future is a mistake I am not saying not to care about it  , just to enjoy and not to envy anyone .

Do you think "Rumspringa" is a good experience ?


 

The  Amish community is uncommon owing to their unpopularity. However it is very interesting and different. When Amish youth enter the Rumspringa period they are free of any obligation . I believe it is pretty useful because it makes them decide what they want to do with their life without being forced .

During that period they become  mature enough  or if not it makes them grow up and become aware of their future plans .They are no longer obligated so they go through many new changes as wearing the cloth they want , going wherever they want and behaving however they want,  that  introduce sthem to a new lifestyle and lets them taste other kind of cultures .

Once they have tried all those new experiences by their own without any pressure on them , I think it is so much easier to decide if they want to return to the Amish community or break away from it .

In conclusion Rumspringa is an important interval which show youth amish what life looks like out there and at the same time once it is over they are welcome without any inconvenience.

Genuine or imitation , what do you prefer to spend your money on ?


Now a days it is very difficult to distinguish genuine things from imitation´s . I think we spend our money buying the brand names instead of the quality of the purchases. However, I prefer buying, in general, the imitation products.

Brands are made to make difference in our society ,those  who want to follow a specific lifestyle  will always be interested in the brands and what they represent . On the other hand there are people who care more about the quality of the products .

It is important to have in mind that, not because the purchase is more expensive, does it mean it is of better quality, hence it is not always the best option. On the other hand, imitation means a copy of the original product, so it will not be the same as buying the real thing.

We should be aware of the condition , how useful and necessary it is for us .Then decide if the relation between price and quality is balanced.

To end up imitations may be cheaper , but not always as effective as genuine but similar . For young people if we are talking about clothes, accessories, etc, it doesn´t make sense to spend a gigantic amount of money because it will become  un fashioned or small for us in a few years . Nevertheless if we are talking about electrodomestic or electronics, it will be better to bet always for the originals .

Would you like to work/study abroad ?


Traveling is one of the most enthusiastic things for me , I am sure I will be thrilled if some day I can repeat such a majestic experience of going out to study abroad .

In first place, we live in a world which has an enormous variety of cultures. Moving around makes us aware of all the different meals, religions, habits in general that every country has and we won´t discover it unless we deeply feel it by living there.

I believe that studying or working  abroad is complicated and sometimes undesired due to newness , the feeling of being homesick and the fear of the unknown . Although once you get used to the new atmosphere all your worries will fly away and you won´t realize how it happened.

To sum up ,I will say that the risks in life can be found anywhere , working in your home town or a thousand km away. when you have undergone so many different situations it becomes easier to live with them.

Amsterdam

Last year at the end of may beginnings of april I went to Amsterdam with my science classmates , we had  such a wonderful time  . It was an exchange trip where everyone were living in different houses with their own host families.
I were at Marina´s house , a little beautiful house where I felt really comfortable , they treat me fantastically as one more family member .
We were in the group around 40 people and we enjoyed our time as much as we could . Gloria and Penelope planed some activities for us like the “tirolina park” , I had so much fun even though I was scared of highs  I finally end the tour up without any inconvenience .
We were to a billiards pub I didn’t play a lot but I got fascinated with that place , it was decorated with picture from famous artist , there were cats all over the place which came to you normally to receive caresses. Around 20 billiards tables were aligned each of them illuminated by an old lamp hanged from the roof, it looked really  showy to me.
Thanks to our teacher we could visited “Anna Frank house” I loved it , I read the book before and due to it I felt really closed with that experience . I recommended to follow my steps because is an unique experience .
However we got to know pretty good the city by our own interest , we had to do a game in small groups and find some things to finally get in the first place but my group didn’t follow the instruction at all , we dedicated that time to visit the city by our own way , we went to the red town , very different to the others part of the city but at the same time pretty interesting , we went shopping and we took thousand of pictures.
I really felt in love with Amsterdam , it wasn’t just the city , it was my company , my host family, the cloudy sometimes sunny weather  and the atmosphere which was extremely distinct to the one in Spain ; people are more liberal .
I hope someday I can came back , meet Marina again and had another wonderful time .

Cheating


Have you ever cheated? Cheat  is a really commun action that a lot of people do. Most of them go prepared to the exams but there are some who  need help to pass .

Tons of cheating ways have been made up by us throughout the time and  they have been improving . Now days at  schools are pretty usual tactics  like technologic , using our phone to look for the information that we need , painting our body as our arm , thigh or hands covering it with a big jumper a skirt or even just with the person in front of you. Making little piece of paper with all your notes and hide it the best you can is a very popular way to cheat too.

However cheat has an inconvenience owning to our nervous , if you get unhidden you failed and there is no way back . Teachers normally scared you a lot and you don’t feel confidence at all , it is the biggest mistake you can make because you will be discovered.

I can tell you an example of cheating from my friend anna , she toke her phone in an exam and she used the source of internet to  got connected with one of his friend one year older , and he told her all the answer form it , finally she could pass the exam without any difficulties .

Everyone has cheated ones in their life  even though those who look really innocent because in a extreme situation you forget about the risk and you  center all your attention forward to get the best result.

Classmates or Friends ?


Javier Muñiz 


I started studying at Nestor Almendros last year.I had already met some people in my class such as Anna , Luis, Gonzalo, Buffa etc. Normally, you start to hang out with the people you know but after some time I began to get closer to those who I didn’t  know very well like Jaime Valls and Pablo.One of them was Javier Muñiz .

Javi is just a normal guy who won´t surprise you at  first sight because the greatest part of him is his personality. He is so funny and natural, he is true to himself in every situation. He is very modest but he isn’t naive. He is generous, kind and pleasant. In my opinion he is not very selfconfident. Nevertheless, this is just a little nothing compared to all his powerful personality.

One of the things I like the most is that he isn’t arrogant and he gives everything he has. He doesn’t show off his achievements, he just works for personal satisfaction.

His outside face is just adorable.  He is always smiling even when the worse comes to the worst. It makes me feel absolutely great because  life just goes on and that is always positive .

The most important thing in life is to don’t give up. There are ups and downs in life but I´ve learnt, I  could say from Javi , that we have to work every day to get what we want without others people´s opinions and we should  be concern  that there is not success without failure and we are the first ones you have to think that we can get into that success.
