FILM

3:09 | Posted by _

In idioms classroom with Laura and Ariadna I saw Grease, a musical inspired by the 50s.
Grease is not a masterpiece but I think that is has to see because this film was unprecdented in the musical cinema. I like this film because is a delightful and fun musical. It is a very simple story but exciting because is very superficial full of american topics like burgers, high school dances... and passes just what we want to happen, a happy final.

The soundtrack has become well know because is cheerful and catchy. Also I think that the age of the actors is not appropiate to the age of the characters, John Travolta doesn't look like a high school boy!

Grease is a movie that anyone who sees repeats. Despite everithing Grease is a tacky movie.

NEW "Benetton brings global model search to life with augmented reality"

4:24 | Posted by _

This new, deals about the new campain of Benetton, this retailer has invested in findig news and differents faces into web 2.0 with a global online casting. Benetton wants to represents the real world, the "new faces of the 21st century".
I choose this new because I was surprised. I think that is a really good new because nowadays the fashion wold is very "infected", they show a perfect girls that aren't exist in reality.
Consequently our society has become obsessed by aesthetic.
The fashion world causes that girls think that they are fat and ugly because the top models are very thin and operated. The fashion is a swindle, nothing is real!

Why do you think that now there are so many anorexic girls?

For this reason I was delighted. Now it's time that someone put some reality in this world!

I you want to see the web where people upload his pics: http://casting.benetton.com/

I choose some photos that I liked:

My first experience with psychology

11:21 | Posted by _

Probably, You know that I want to study psychology at University and consequently now I'm studying psychology at high school with Albert Piñero. I love this subject because is very different and interesant. In class we are five people (Sara, Cèlia, Laura C., Katy and me). Normally Mondays and Wednesdays we do theory, and Thursday and Friday we do different activities.

A few weeks ago we went to the geriatric of Castelló and we practice with grandparents that they had some diseases such as Alzheimer's. This experience has been unbelievable, I like very much dealing with persons.
The first day that we went to geriatric we talk with geriatric psychologist and she told us what kind of patients we would treat and the function that psychologist makes in a geriatric. We saw that she has much work.
The other days we treat with our patiens and We took note of the dysfunctions that we detect.
And finally the last day the psychologist explain us the real live that patiens have. This day, for me, the worst day, because was the final and because is very sad to realize that these people before they were like us, and now his live is the expectation of death.
In conclusion I think that I remember all of my life this experience and I hope that I will can live a lot of experiences like this.

Bye bye!!:)

Nap time at high school!

7:21 | Posted by _

Hello!! this entry is about sleep, one of my favourite things ;)
I have decided to talk about this matter because today I have read a magazine called "muy interesante" and the thruth is that is very interesting because it talks about plenty of things.

I have read that a study by the University of California, Berkeley (USA) reveals that 90 minute nap serve to clear the mind and enhance learning ability.
As more time we spend awake, our brain becomes slow down!
Moreover, when you was up all night the ability to start new activities, reduced by forty percent! In the magazine say that, now the scientists wants to investigate if the little sleep, that is related to aging, causes diseases such as Alzheimer's.

All of this information made me think that probably the education structure is not good, because the students don't have time. If when we have exams also we have homework it's impossible do everithing!! Accordingly we have to lose sleep hours.


The Solution, make a sleep time in high school like in nursery... of course I'm joking. I don't know THE SOLUTION but now you know that sleep is very important!

Flashmob!

9:09 | Posted by _

Recently I knew about flashmobs and I thought that is an interesting topic to talk on this blog.

1The flashmob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and pointless act for a brief time, then quickly disperse.

The flashmobs are actions that a group of people agree to do in a public place like a train or a square. These people communicate normaly through facebook, email, mobile...

The flashmob origins was created in Manhattan in May 2003, by Bill Wasik, senior editor of Harper's Magazine, the first attempt was unsuccessful but nowadays the flashmobs are very frequent and have become in many places around the world.

In barcelona this year it made two flashmobs, one in gran via 2 and the other in the subway. The first it was a dance and the second it consisted of go with uderwear in a subway, these act was done in many cities in the same day!

The flashmob can be a dance, a homenage, a pillow fight or a similar activity.

1 extracted from wikipedia

The first flashmob that I saw in youtube was this:

and I think that is very shocking because all the people dance equal and there are many people!!

And here you can see more videos about flashmobs arround the world ;)

Do you want to dance?








Or you prefer some feathers?



Or maybe you preffer to be still?



I think that the flashmobs are a fun way to make friends and de-stresses!!

good luck :)
