La catedral del mar- Ildefonso Falcones

This term my favorite topics are the books! In this time I’m going to talk about “La cathedral del Mar” of Ildefonso Falcones.

This book is also based in real events like The Fall of Giants of Ken Follet. In this case, the books explain how the life was in XIV century in Catalonia.
In the beginning the writer explains the situation of one worker called Bernat. In there explains that he get married with a very beautiful women called Francesca. The count of Navarcles decides stay with Francesca of first time before Bernat, because in this time the counts had this right. With the time the family follows with her life, but Francesca gets pregnant. When they have the child, Bernat confirm that the child was his son and no the count’s son. After some events Bernat decides to go to Barcelona with his son Arnau. He decides to go there because in there the citizens are free, and not depend of one count or king.
The two persons obtains make her life in Barcelona, however they have to pass a lot of difficulties before.
This book is very interesting. You can see how the life in was this time, and of course, you can see how unfair was the life for some people. The counts have a lot of favors, for example, they can stay with the girlfriend in the first night of her marriage. Also they have all the instruments for make for example bread, like the oven… and the citizens are obligated to go there and pay for the services. Also the citizens have to ask for go to somewhere to the count, and if they don’t make it, pays. In Barcelona this favors aren’t so insolent, but also in there some people have favors.
The book is called “La Catedral del Mar” because is what gives power to Arnau to follow his life, and fight for his rights.
I enjoy a lot this book because make me see the fortunate that in actuality we are.


La caída de los gigantes- Ken Follet

Hello people! Today I’m going to talk about one book. This book is “Fall of Giants” of Ken Follet.This was one of my presents in Christmas. Like other books of Ken Follet like the pillars of the earth, or World without End, this book is amazing. This is based in real events of First World War.

This book is the first book belonging at one saga with three books. The second book develops in Second World War, and the third book develops in cold war.
This book is about development of the First World War. In the beginning the writer explains how the life of one young man is. He is Billy Williams. I love this book because at the same moment you can see how begins the First World War, and also how develops the life of Billy.
The story has a lot of different topics. For example, you can found love, war, friendship…
First of all you can see how Billy begins to work in a mine. In Aberowen all young men works in the mine. With the time, Billy decides to go at war to help his compatriots.
The best is that you can follow the Billy’s and his family story, the story of Dewar’s family, that are American, also the story of the Fitzherbert, that are the count of Aberowen city, the Von Ulrich family that are from Germany, and the story of Peshkov’s family that are Russian. These are the most important characters of this story; however there is also a little part of the characters of this story.
The most spectacular think is that all these characters are relate with all of them. For example, Lady Maud Fitzherbert is the sister of Fitz, and they are very friends with Walter Von Ulrich.
I don’t know what explain for don’t reveal the important events of the book. I encourage you to read the book.

Discussion essay



In our times, technology has evolved a lot. Nowadays we depend on the technology, or in specific to the computers to do a lot of jobs. Before the creation of the computers we could do before and less the same jobs but with more difficulty, and the computers mad our lives easiest.

With a computer you can do a lot of things that without them are complicated. For example yo can save a lot of documents, films, photos, music and a lot of other files into the hard disk drive and you can reproduce or see them always.

The live without computers it's impossible because we need computers for do easiest and most quickly many sophisticated things or jobs and a lot of process that you can't do without pc.

My music band


hello!!!

Since the last year I play the drums in a music band.
The band is called Asterium and the name comes from the word Hastati that in spanish is astero. The Hastati were a class of infantry in the republican Rome that was the low/middle class, because the roman soldiers bought his own equipment, and the hastati had a basic equipment because they didn't have money to buy a better equipment, therefore this was a metaphorical name that refers that we are medium class people.

Well, these are two sings of our band, the sound is bad because we recorded in our house :), because are very poor for pay a record company.

Death in war

Lord of war

The Big Bang Theory



Hello people!

Today I’m going to talk about one of my favourite TV series.

This is about a group of four friends. All the members of this group have one special peculiarity: They are very intelligent and also they are working like a sciencists at the University of their City. Everyone that meets this brilliant group thinks that they are very freaks. This opinion is based on some curious things, for example, they play a lot of games every day, also they read comics, and the last and the most important is that: They don’t have hardly ever the company of a girl.

One member of this group is Leonard. He is the member more normal of these four friends. In the development of the series, He has some relations with girls, and their abilities for the social contact are the best of the group. He was in love in all the series since meets Penny. She is the neighbour.

Other member of these friends is Raj Koothrappali. He is an Indian. He has a very important problem with the speech: He can’t speak with a beautiful women’s like Penny. One solution of this problem is drink something with alcohol.

Howard Wolowitz is one of the last members of this group. He is Judean. He thinks that is a very attractive men, and of course, this is not. This make that a lot of girls run far away when saw him, or when He says something to her. Also he makes very poor flattering comments.

The last member and the most special member is Sheldon Cooper. He is the most intelligent member of the group. He hasn’t got any type of ability for talk with the people. For example, He only talks about interesting thinks like physic or comics or superheroes. Also they don’t know how talk with irony or sarcasm, they don’t understand it. I don’t know how make a description more exactly of this character.

With this series I passed a lot of very funny moments, and overcoat with Sheldon. I recommend to all of you seeing this series. I think that is worth meet the character of Sheldon and their special habits.

I hope that you will enjoy this contribution!

Power,Viking and folk metal


Hi guys!!
Lately i'm addicted with heavy metal bands, or more specific with Power metal, Viking metal and Folk metal, it is because I play drums in a viking death metal band called Asterium, and listen this type of music is for me an inspiration. I like too much this types of metal because the music is more melodic than other types of metal, but the voice of viking metal and folk metal often is very hard and distort, but in the power it's more fine. The most popular bands of power metal are Manowar, Avantasia, Hammerfall and Sonata Arctica, the most popular Vikin Metal bands are Ensiferum, Amon Amarth and Korpiklaani.
Finally, the most popular Folk metal bands are Eluveitie, Shaman and others.
It's easy that the folk metal was confused with viking metal because has the same root.
Well, I'm going to show you one example of each type.

Power metal, Manowar:




For the Viking metal, Ensiferum:


finally, folk metal, Eluveitie:





It's hard and powerfull music, and it's the better music that you can listen when you are stressed ;)
cyo!

Way of St. James

Hello people,

Today I'm going to explain my travel to the Way of St. James this September. Eight years ago, my parents, my dog and I begin with this purpose: Make the Way of St. James. However, we have to stop it because my dog Laika went ill while we are travelling.


This year, my parents decided to go back to Sarria, and begin another time the Way of St. James. In this time, go my parents, my girlfriend Alba and I. Like as said, we began in Sarria. We were travelling with car approximately 11 hours. When we arrive to Sarria, we look for a safe place for our car, and after this we look for lodging.

The first day was the easiest day. We wake up at 5.30 am, because the rest of the people that slept in the same room wake up at this moment. After this, we have breakfast, and we begin the way. We are completely refreshed, and this make that the way was few tired. Approximately at 13.00 am, we arrive to Porto Marín. We have finished the first stage that have 22.4 km. In the afternoon we are very very tired, and this makes that at 10 pm we were sleeping.

The second day we wake up at 6.00 am. The objective of this day was arriving to Palas de Rei. For arriving here we have to made 25km. This was the worst day for me. We are very tired of the last day, and this stage was very hard.

The third day, we went since Palas de Rei to Arzúa. Thisstage has 26km. However, this stage was easiest than the last stage.

The four day the objective was arrive to Monte do Gozo. We have to make 30km for can make it. Monte do Gozo was only at 4 km of Santiago de Compostela. We decided to stop here and the next day makes only this 4 km and arrives to Santiago with all of our capacities.

The Way of St. James was very tired, but I passed a long time with my parents and my girlfriend. I don’t appear any blister on my food, but my mother and my girlfriend doesn’t have my chance. Also, make the way of St. James make that one friend that I met in London the last year, Mélanie, comes to Santiago. In Santiago Alba and I stay with Mel, and we recorded a lot of moments passed in London.
