Carnaval!

So yeah, finally this is my last entrance and I’m happy to say that I’m very pleased for it to be. I can’t take it any more because it’s a lot of work!

Today at last I’m going to talk about last Friday at Roses Carnaval. First of all, we arrived there at 12 o’clock because previously we had been training at handball.
Once we arrived there, we had the chance to see the Carnaval spectacle but not for long because it was already late and they were finishing.
But it didn’t matter because after the whole spectacle there was a concert where everyone went to alter on. So we were on time for that.
This year all of my College friends organized to go dressed as tennis players, but I and my fellow best friends decided to go as mafias, with a very nice suit and a shirt under it.
I think that when everyone saw us they were quite amazed with are suit because we had planned or costume very well and the tennis players costume… What can I say?
It wasn’t very special, it just looked like they had organized I to late and that it didn’t go to well…

Well apart of the suit we all had guns and golden chains on us, we also had a cigar ans sun glasses to make us look bad! Clara also joined us but she was a kind of something.
She got a mix of everything and just put it all together, she was some kind of Dracula- devil thing…

We got home at 6 o’clock that night and Clara had to wake up that morning to go to work at 8 o’clock… I stayed in my nice day all day!

Differences of Frankenstein!


These are the differences between the film and the book that we read at home for are English class:
First of all at the beginning of the film Victor is walking and the monster is right behind him and in the book Victor and the monster are on sledges. Then the monster kills the dogs that try to attack him.
Victors mum does not die of an illness, she dies during she’s giving birth to the new baby. That’s when Victor saw the power of electricity. Victor receives a diary form his mother before going to the University and he meets his new best friend Henry there.
At the University Victors professor gets stabbed in the stomach by a patient and in the book the professor actually never dies. There is a lot of diseases in the city and a lot of deaths because of it.
He uses electricity for experiment like in the book but in the film we can see more complex inventions to make live his creation, he doesn’t revive the monster straight from the lightning in the sky. Elizabeth travels days to go and visit Victor because she’s worried about him, she complains that she hasn’t’ received a letter from him for a long time.
When Victor manages to revive the monster he tries to help him get up he doesn’t run away like in the book. Soon the monster gets hit with a piece of metal and Victor leaves him hanging there. Then in the morning is when he actually runs away from the monster.
In the film the monster manages to help him self and he goes to the market and he’s attacked by the habitants of the town. The monster helps a poor family that live in a small house and he also beats up the owner of the house. The monster is thought to be the spirit of the good. He gets attacked by the poor family and he decides to burn the house. The monster manages to play the flute and that’s when he sees William and he kills him like in the book.
The monster gets Justine’s body for his future wife. He doesn’t kill Elizabeth struggling her he rips her heart out and later on throwing her on the floor with the fire.
Victor wants to revive her and he gets Justine’s body and Elizabeth’s head and puts it together, finally he manages to revive her. Victor and the monster fight for Elizabeth and in the end she can’t stand them and she kills her self burning alive.
At the end, we can see that the monster cries over the body of Victor once dead, later on they prepare a funeral for Victor and suddenly the ice starts to break.
The monster manages to swim across onto the block of ice where Victor is laid on, the monster burns with him.

Summer in Madrid!

A week before going back to school I went with my best friends to Madrid for a whole week. Before I start I just want to say that it’s an experience I will never forget.
It first started when one of my best friends Bernardo Santos called me and told me and the others if I we wanted to go to Madrid. With out thinking we all said yes and off we went to Madrid.
Mainly I’m going to talk about are funniest moments getting there and once there!

We almost missed the train from Figueres to Barcelona. We almost missed it because we tried to get in the train without paying and we saw that the guard on the train was checking if everyone had the tickets, so we had to quickly get some in the train station and we only had 5 minutes to get back on the train so we run for it like we had never done!

Once in Barcelona we stayed there over the night, thanks to Alex Souvandy’s house there that he lived in there, he was also coming with us in Barcelona. At night time we went out to a lot of discotheques and we managed to drink for free all night in all the discos. We got free drinks because my other best friend Jordi Galí promised that if he gave a ticket for a free drink we would stay there and pay for more to drinks, but we never did! And we did that on all of them…

In Madrid at McDonalds we ordered 40 hamburgers, every hamburger only cost 1 euro. People couldn’t believe what we had said!

I and Jordi got lost more than a hundred times in the streets of Madrid and Barcelona…
We did so many things that I could write a book about it but I think I’ll stop here, I had a great time!

Slipknot & Metallica Festival in Bacelona!


So today I’m going to talk about some exciting piece of news, well specially for me, Slipknot one of my favorite bands is finally coming to Barcelona together with Metallica, a legend trash metal band and very well known. I’ve been listening to Slipknot since the last 4 years and I am overwhelmed that there are coming. This will be the first proper concert I go to and it’s also going to be one of the heaviest concerts ever done in Barcelona. It’s a festival so many other not as well known bands will go there also.
Slipknot is a nu metal band, that means that they mix rock rap and screaming on they’re songs. Guitars tend to have a very heavy sound and there’s always a DJ in a nu metal band. There are a lot of well known bands that are also nu metal for example; Linkin Park, Mudvayne, Deftones; Korn…
Sadly nu metal originated in America in the 90’s is slowly coming to an end. Nu metal bands tend to disappear or evolve to a different music style.
Slipknot is currently one of the only nu metal bands left, but lately they have been very influenced by Metallica and their new album is more trash metal than nu metal.
We can also say that Metallica is also changing; their new album is more influenced by nu metal…

Well this is a small introduction so you know a little bit more about my groups! I can’t wait for the summer! It’s going to be awesome!

By the way, tickets cost 70 euros and the festival is on the 11th of July if you want to go!

ROCK ON!!!!

Someone Special...

I’m going to talk about someone that has become very special in my life simply because that person really does care about me and she would do anything in the world to make me happy and make me smile.
She looks after me when I’m ill and she makes me laugh when I’m sad and feel lonely. I truly appreciate what she does for me and I have never met someone like her.
We have had a lot of moments together, a lot of great moments and a few bad but good or bad I wouldn’t change this experience for the world because this is what truly makes me the happiest man in the hole of the universe…

She’s got the greatest personality. She’s funny, happy and extroverted; she makes me feel very good and also people that surround her. Because of this I always think of her of a great, loving and giving person.

We can say that I feel very lucky to have had the chance to meet her and later on become a part of her life.

Who do you think it is?
