Are you ready to order?

Eating healthy is the best way to be fit and not to put on weight, together with weekly sport. It is said that Mediterranean Diet is a great method to achieve it, I mean, eating enough quantity of vegetables, fruits, cereals, pain, pasta, legumes, potatoes, etc.

Nonetheless, what is the main reason to start a diet? Feeling us healthier or staying in shape? This answer depends on each person, but, generally, people tend to take this decision with the goal of improve their appearances.

Honestly, I would say that I am fit but I do not have a balanced diet, what is so unhealthy. As I am concerned about it, I would like to cut down on junk food, such as: pizza, lasagna, fried potatoes, etc., In the same way, I consider that working out more frequently, would help me to start my new healthy lifestyle.

Dream of being faster

When I was little, my mother signed me up for swimming for four years. I remember being fast, but I did not like it. After that, I decided to try rhythmic gymnastics, and although I started being more flexible, I gave up again. 

Later, I discovered that running was my strongest point, even I remember winning lots of athletics competition on the third final ranking. In this way, once a year, in Murcia, thanks to my school, I competed against all the girls of Murcia, from different cities and towns. 

Nonetheless, in the adolescence, when I was growing up, my backache started, I could not run as well as I wanted, and as a consequence I began to have a sedentary lifestyle and to focus my efforts on studies. That was the main reason which I lost my best ability.

The only sport which I have never gave up is rolling blading. I have been practising it since I was 6 years, and now I would like to train me to skate faster, and even run faster. In addition, next month there is a marathon in San Javier in which I would like to take part. I am looking forward it.

Some solutions for a man on the edge of death (Week 6)

This video shows a man who want to commit suicide jumping from the top of a building, specifically a hotel, since he cannot face his problems. Some of the main problems that bring him to put an end to his life are: the fact that he has been laid off his job, which suppose that he could not afford to pay his expenses, and as a consequence, his wife left him for another one. Nonetheless, the employees of the hotel and some specialists try to save him from death, whereas others encourage him to jump.

One solution to his problem would be helping him to overcome his problems through antidepressants, trying to make him understand that he is not alone and that life is beautiful although there are spell of bad lack moments, and above all, he should go to a psychologist for some years.

Comparison between Six Pistols and Rotten Rostropóvich (Week 5)

Sex Pistols was a group, whereas Mstislav Rotten Rostropóvich was just a cellist, although in this picture he is playing in an orchestra. Different from Jonny, from the Sex Pistols, Rostropóvich did not sing.

In contrast, in these photos, Johnny is younger and plays punk pop music, while Rotten R. is older and plays classic music. The Sex Pistols are wearing fashionable and casual clothes, while Rostropóvich dresses more smartly.

On the other hand, making reference to the audience, though the cellist’s spectators used to be sat, the Sex Pistols’ fans used to be stand. As far as I am concerned, rock fans are usually funnier, active and edgy, as long as the Rostropóvich’s admirers, that is, those who go to listen to classic music, are usually more quiet, patient and older. In addition, it seems that Sex Pistols are playing outside, whereas Rostropóvich is playing inside an auditorium. 

Nevertheless, both Sex Pistols and Rostropóvich played string instruments, and similarly, they have been big stars in the world of music with millions of fans and artworks.

 

Living together,as a success or failure?

Coexistence between students can be so complicated for many people, due to the fact that each one has his own mentality, customs, obsessions, habits, and different ways to think and explain. In addition, whereas some people look for someone who were calm, independent, reliable, unselfish, charming etc., others try to find a more active, party-loving, sociable, cheerful….

Nonetheless, from my viewpoint, when we try to live with a friend who he has been known for a long, we can be disappointed with him or her, as we find out their true personality, if he or she is meticulous, disorganised, maniacal, etc. So, I believe that the most important part, is not living with a person with whom you fit, but with whom you can be yourself, without arguing neither come to blows, nor escapes from responsibility.

As far as I am concerned, at first it can be so complex, even you can feel depressed or lifeless, since you have to bear the lack of communication and discussion for almost a year.  Nevertheless, over time, people tend to adaptation and the harmonious coexistence.

In this way, and to sum up, I would recommend everyone to share a flat, although you fail choosing your apartment-mates, I am sure that it would help you to choose the next time, and in any case, you would have nice experiences. 

My little puppy ❤

It is said that the man’s best friend is the dog, and as far as I consider, that’s a real fact. In my case, I love animals, and in particular, my animals.

I have a cute, adorable and clever dog which adores me. She is a small one year Yorkshire, with a tiny and particular snout. When she was little, she had black fur, but now it became grey and white. She always follows and watches me, what I find so lovely...

Her name is Noah and she is my puppy. Although she is so lazy and sleeps so much, she always misses me, because now she just sees me twice a week.

I remember once when she was sick and her stomach became inflamed, but she continued trying to bite my furniture and once she was face up, she couldn’t stand up, what’s made me laugh although she was a little ill.

I love her so much that I fancy speaking about her.

Important issue: Abortion vs right to live? (week 4)

Nowadays, in Spain, abortion is forbidden, due to the fact that the new law want to avoid it, basing on the idea that it suppose interrupt a pregnant attempting to the rights of an unborn person.

A group of researchers in the United Kingdom proved that a foetus of 17 weeks gestation can have feelings of happiness and pain.

Nevertheless, I consider that in all the cases, the abortion could be permitted for teenagers, for women who have taken precautions but in a particular moment it didn't work, for women who had been raped, for women who are sick and cannot have it safely, when they baby can have a deformity and parents don’t want to have it, etc…

But the most complicated case is the woman who can have it but don’t want, because it just was a “slip”. In that case, I consider that the woman should choose what to do, as long as the embryo had not reached 15 weeks. And I would propose another alternative which would be reward the woman for having him or her, perhaps with money, and later, give the baby in adoption to couples who want to have but that can’t. In addition, a child shouldn’t be with a couple where will never be loved, but with a couple that know how to love and look after him.

To sum up, from my point of view, abortion, in general terms, shouldn’t be banned, except for situations related to rapes, adolescence and illness.

Image description (Week 3)

In the foreground, this picture shows the ocean. In the middle, I can see a big rock eroded by the waves. On the right bottom corner there is a nearer rock from where we can see that particular erosion in detail. In addition, in the background, I can perceive the clear sky.

The waves appear to be rowdy and that is the main reason why I think that it is not sea, but ocean.  Moreover, it looks choppy with a lot of foam coming from the wave crash. So, it makes me think that it is a cold place.

On the other hand, from my point of view, this is a peaceful, quiet, beautiful and lively place, suitable for having relax and thinking. I would like to be there, but I would rather to be in the seashore, sunbathing or taking stones and calms.

Prejudge and "Post-judge"

In too many cases, the appearance of a person depends on the personality, customs, habits, mentality, age, etc.

That makes that we pre-judge people because of their physic, gestures, and ways to speak or think. Nevertheless, from where I stand, the worst thing is when we are influenced on what people say, external opinions, rumours, etc. what is a big mistake. For this reason, it seems to me that people who are guided by assessments which come from outside, don’t have personality.

Sometimes, we model our way to be according to what people expect from us. In addition, a simple or scruffy person can be owning of a big personality.

To sum up, I would say that we shouldn’t prejudge people by their appearances until we have known them, so we should “post- judge”.
