Memories

A few days ago I found an English work that I've done years ago. This has maked me think about I miss some moments and some people, because people goes away and time never stop. Few years ago my life was completely different, and I think it also was better, because I was a young girl who didn't care about anything, it was like I was free. Currently I'm free too, but it's a different kind of freedom. I miss some people. A long time ago I had many friends, I was always happy with them. Nowadays I have many friends too, but we're more matures, we don't do the same stupids things, well, it isn't true, because my friends are crazy, but most people isn't like they. What we said when we were kids still working currently "Today I like you, we will see tomorrow".

Finland: Elderly man defies age with downhill skiing

Nils-Olof Eklundh started skiing in 1937 and still hits the slopes at a centre near Helsinki for two hours every Saturday and Sunday. After descending the hill 10 times he stops for a coffee, then does it another 10 times.

Spain: Rare Iberian lynx tracked in Madrid region

After 40 years the rare Iberian lynx has returned to Madrid, Spain. The male lynx, called Kentaro, was born in captivity and released with seven more lynx in Toledo in 2014. Kentaro has "packed his bags and set off on his travels", it's rare that a lynx goes so far away, they tend to stay close to where they were born. Kentaro wears a GPS collar which allows conservationists to track his whereabouts. 
The Iberian Lynx is the world's most endangered feline, and the only breeding populations are both in southern Spain.

Conference with Noa

The teachers of English of INS Castelló d'Empúries have prepared us a videoconference with Noa, an old student of the school. Currently she is in Sidney, Australia. With this videoconference we all could ask to her some questions to resolve our doubts, and moreover, this conference has opened us to other possibilities such as leaving the country to practice English as Noa.
We have been asking many questions, she seemed prepared for everything, she had an answer for everything. She seemed mature. And this has maked me think, because maybe I should do as she. Anyway, the conference with Noa has helped me, because it has maked me think a lot about my future.

Thank you teachers!
