The legend of Sant Jordi

Hello everybodyy !
Today it's Sant Jordi and the World-Wide Day of the Book.
Because of that, now I'm going to talk about the legend of Sant Jordi.
Some time ago, there was a castle with a king and a princess. Very near, there was a dragon who can took out fire from the mouth. This dragon requered every week a gril for lunch. And one day, they wanted to eat the daugther of the king.
When the dragon went to his cave with the princess, in their way appears a knight ridden in a white horse. When the knight, whose name was Jordi, saw that, he got closer to the dragon, took his sword and killed the monster.
From the blood of the dragon, red roses bloomed. After that, the knight go out from the castle and the king and his daughter were always gratefull.
And that's the story about Sant Jordi, and this day, the 23th of April, all the boys have to give a flower to the grils; and the girls have to give a book to the boys.
I wanted to talk about this iusse because I consider this day very important for all the world, but especially for Catalonia. It's a national holliday here.

I think that the picture shows very well what I've told you, because we can see a rose and a book.
It's the day of LOVE. (L)

Why young people use Internet?

Why young people use Internet?
Nowadays young people only use Internet for the messenger(msn), the fotolog or the blog or something like this and the facebook.
For example, the messenger(msn) that young people use to talk to their friends, the friends who meet in the school. It permits you making a conversation and send images and archives. It also use a webcam which you can see the other person immediately.
The fotolog or the blog is a programme which permites you making an entry about something you like and put a photo with the text.
The facebook is a really new and recent programme, and really famous too. It permits you talking to your friends, playing games, making really different tests, put all your photos and put the videos which you like the most. I think that it's the most complete.
We only use Internet to do classwork if it's necessary. And even we use for that we also are talking with some friends by messenger or facebook.

I think that Internet is like a drug. Most of my friends are in the messenger all the day, or playing games in facebook. They have to study but they prefer spend all their time in Internet. I think we are very hooked to these temporary fashions like fotolog or facebook. Also the teachers have an account in these programmes.
But it's ture that sometimes, if you are stressed it can help you a little bit.

Mercè Rodoreda

Hello! Today I will talk to you about a catalan writer, Mercè Rodoreda.
I wanto to talk about her, because I've read one of her best books: Mirall Trencat.
At first, Merce Rodoreda was born in Barcelona 1908, and she died in Girona 1983. She won "Premi d'Honor de les Lletres Catalanes" 1980.
She wrote some novels and stories. Also she wrote poetry, theatre and painting.
She lived "la Segona República Espanyola" and "La Guerra Civil Espanyola". This war marked her a lot, and we can see it in her litrature. She was from the republican side, so and the end of the war she had to exile.
From 1939 until 1972 she was exiled. When she crossed the border, she went to Perpinyà. Later, she moved to Tolose and afterwards, to Paris. Because of the nazis she had to moved from Paris to Geneva where she lived a few years.
Now, I will talk about the book I've read: Mirall Trencat.
She wrote it in 1974. The story of this book occurs in Barcelona before "la Guerra Civil".
It's a very nice book, and I recommend you.
