Then the couple went to Argentina there they met María Rachid an important woman of LGTB in rights in her country. The final destination was China, Jenni´s country; there they talked with a lesbian group.

Suzanne Barakat: Islamophobia killed my brother. Let's end the hate


Suzanne Barakart is a Muslim girl who explains her brother and sister and law story. They were a young and happy couple until his neighbour enter at his home and shout them, he finished with his life only for a reason, islamophobia.

After the murder the neighbour made a statement, a false statement and no one investigate it. After that she tried to contact with as people as she could. She received the help of his parent’s neighbour meal, who is a journalist, he helped them giving voice at Suzanne and his family. 24 hours later she was interviewed on the CNN and too many other newspapers published the new, giving them the voice that the justice avoids.

In this TED talk she wants to claim that Islamophobia is something to much common in our society, also she is from USA when its governor is Donald Trump who has a racist and intolerance ideology and this only increases this ideology around the country.


This racism is known by many people, but only a little part of this one acts. Is this what Suzanne is claiming a help, a little bit of solidarity with the discriminated people, in her case for the religion.

If a story moves you, act on it

Sisonke Msimang talks about her observation about the story telling, the power of stories and their limitations, particularly the stories interested on social injustice, because stories are everywhere and she considers stories as the antidote bias.
Stories can explain what we are “scare” to talk about, some “tabu” issues that we don’t feel good talking about. She has special interested in not fiction stories, the stories that are more than entertainment and she think that stories don’t necessarily make the world a better place and she presents three reasons to contend this thesis.
  1. Stories can create an illusion solidary, you feel good only listen is insufficient to make a social action.
  2. Every story had a characters and sometimes we don’t like it, this can’t be reason to involve ourselves in a story and social action, this don’t have to influence us.
  3. Media is necessary, credible facts, combined with powerful voices.
In conclusions she say that it’s the justice what that makes the world a better place, not stories. Audience can also help make the world a better place if becomes more curious, if the audience recognize story teller as and intellectual work and finally and on opinion essay the most important is get out of screans and look the real world.

She finish with a quote that I liked so much: “Storytellers can help us to dream, but it’s up to all of us to have a plan for justice”.

LIFE EXPECTANCY TO BREAK 90 BARRIERS BY 2030
http://www.bbc.com/news/health-39040146
Imperial College London made an analysis of the lifespans in 36 industrialised countries.
This analysis described some different results. The first that they predicted was that the difference between men and women will be less since 2030. Traditionally had unhealthier lifestyles and most dangerous, but now this is changing and the difference will be closed.
The analysis also express South Korean women will be the first in the world to have an average life expectancy above 90, and that Japan will lay down the global rankings.
All of this finding represents a challenge for pensions and care for elderly people, because it’s an increase of the third age people.  
Finally they made a prediction and all indicts that in to manty countries the population will increase and progress.



I have chosen this new because on the geography subject we have worked the population and his moves and was a really interesting unit for me. I think that the increase population is one of the big problems of the society. Also I gave chosen this new in a personal way because I don’t know how but I want to work with society and known as good as I can what happens with us is extremely important to know what we need. 
GAME OF THRONES
I always have heard that see tv series in a foreign language can help you to improve that language, in my case English,  but when I tried to do it in so many times I’ve always decide to put the Spanish audio.
But this changed when after my cousin perseverance to comment with us game of thrones my sister and I decided to start to view it, was a little difficult because I had always seen this series there are too much blood, death, violence…and I never liked it so much so I never done the intent to start it, because for me was like a effort. Even so my sister and I decided start GOT on summer.
Now being on the fifth lesson I can say that everyone have to see this series, since the first chapter still the last one you are being amazing, and in the  other side maybe I didn’t learnt too much vocabulary but in my point of view I have improved my pronunciation and understanding ability.

Since I started game of thrones I tried to find or start some series to improve my English because I think that heard a language is a really good  way of learning and being in contact with it.

MY LONDON TRIP

This Christmas I went to London, because my cousin is living there and we came to London to make her a surprise. She already knew that my aunt came to London but she should never wait for us in the same hotel we wait for she like one hour and when she saw us she cried. I can say that was revenge because she had done the same to my sister and me a month ago when she came to high school exit by surprise and when my sister and thought that she went to the train station to picked up my aunt and Claudia appeared.
I have explained why we went to London, now it’s time to speak about the travel what we done in these five-six days in London.
The first day we arrived on London at afternoon so we couldn’t do too much but my cousin took us to a Christmas market that once that it’s amazing and there is some strange products, winter products that artificial snow or a hat that at the same time is a scarf, this market is Winter Wonderland and is on Hyde Park.
The second day we went to visit different places of London not the typical, Clàudia took us to some places that maybe if you are a tourist you don’t visit, in special a park that you have to climb a little mountain, and we you are in the top you can see perfectly the London skyline.
The third day, 28 of December, we made a guide tour because my cousin worked and I have to say that we travel we usually don’t use guide tours because my father said that obviously they show you a little part of the city and the superficial and we are that people that always enter where they can’t, but even so I have to say that I learned things that maybe alone I wouldn’t have known. At the afternoon we went to London Bridge because I wanted to see it illuminated.
Next day we went to visit the part of the Buckingham Palace and the Royal’s Guard at on afternoon we went to Hamleys and Harrods two of the most important shops in London on Hamleys that is a toys shop we spend on there one hour and half.
The fourth day we went to shop on oxford street during the morning and on the afternoon we went to vist Notting hill because is where my cousin lives and because we wanted too saw the house of my favourite movie finally we went to abbey road and I don’t know who because there was too much traffic but we made the same photo that The Beatles done.

And the last day of the year, 31 of December,   we went back to home for the night party. I loved London and I can’t wait to go back on April.






CÈLIA

Cèlia is one of my best friends, I know her for 14 years since we start primary school. During the first years we were only class matters but later we started to be inseparable, specially when we started the high school. 
We are really different and there are too much people who asks how we can be best friends, but I think that maybe being so different is the reason of our specially friendship we complete each other. 
She seems really seriously but when you are her friend you know how funny she is, we spend a lot of time together and sometimes we are like sisters I know that I can trust in Cèlia and I know that we will be friend forever, because I can't imagine my life without her, she is a really important part.
We lived a lot of adventures together, some travels, some strange situations, parties and sometimes we had to gave support to the other in bad moment. But I think that together we are stronger and happiest, and he have  to live together to much moments yet, like live together next year.
I love so much, and as I have said I need her in my live.
