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.
