SKIING WEEK

In Catalonia the "White week" was the 2nd of March.
During this week teachers and pupils have holidays to do what they want.

Me, in the "white week" I did a lot of things, but not too much homerwork-I must confess. First of all, all the mornings except the Wednesday morning, I was training girls and boys to learn many things about basket, these trainings started at 10 o'clock and finished at 13 o'clock; I learned a lot how to get along with children, and teach them how to respect the rules.
In the afternoons I did some homework, and I also met my friends.

But the best days were Tuesday afternoons and all Wednesday, because I went to Oriol's cottage with 20 people. When we arrived there, we had lunch, then we had dinner, finally we slept there. The next day we had breakfast and lunch and then we came back to Barcelona.

To sum up, the skiing week was amazing!!!

The disaster of Japan


Last Friday, 11th march 2011, a 9 Richter scale earthquake hit the North of Japan. The earth started shaking for  two minutes and a half and a tsuamani rocked the offshore areas.

The consequences of the tsunami have been devastating and perhaps weeks of future anxiety before the consequences of the explosion in the Fukushima nuclear plant are finally understood. And months or years to repair the devastation caused along the northeast coast of Japan by the greatest tsunami created by a quake measuring 8.9 on the Richter scale that the Japanese archipelago has suffered since regular records began in 1900.
Nowadays the fear of Japanese are at the beginnig of a nuclear explosion that could cause a nuclear blast
and the possibility of a new earthquake 7 on the Richter scale within the next day.
