Scary summer

It was the summer of 2013 and my roommate was Stefan, a strange boy that was known as paranormal because he had said that he had seen ghosts at midnight in his house. The time that I had been with him nothing strange had happened.

One ordinary day I was going to my bedroom when a green colour was shining inside the room. At first I was a bit scared but I hoped that it wasn't real. I entered into the room and it was a green shining head on the wall and Stefan was absolutely terrified in his bed. When the head saw me it disappeared and I called the director to tell him what had happened but he didn't believe me. The next days different bizarre things ocurred such as Stefan being possessed, and a ghost that was shouting for hours and hours.

It was the last day of summer and all the people went home and I was at the airport and I was a bit crazy due to the paranormal things that had appeared in my room all those times. I saw Stefan off at the airport and decided that, after all the scary experiences we had been through together that summer, it would be safer never to have contact with him again.

Fads

Nowadays, people have some fads, such as the New Balance, Victoria's, Eight Basque Surnames, etc.

You can buy all these fads, but now a wristband with some elastic bands is also a fad. These wristband are different from the others because you can make them in different ways and colours. All people can make them, old and young alike. It doesn't matter what age you are, you can make them without problem. Depending on which way you choose to make the wristband, it is different from the other ways. You can make them circular, with flowers etc. You can make them with forks, with fingers, with an instrument, etc.

However, it is not only a wristband. You can also make a rope, an animal such as a snake or a dog. You can also make unisex necklaces and rings.

The wristbands are cool my little sister has made a lot of them and she loves doing it. I have also made some of them and it is like a hobby and you can have fun with it. Do you like them? Have you made one? Which other fads do you like?

What I want to have for ever

Some bracelets break easily, but as mine is one of my favourite possessions I want it to last for ever.

It is made of a little pink thread and it has two pearls in it. It is very beautiful and it has great sentimental value.

Let's start with why a simple bracelet is so important. This is because this year a French girl came to my house for one week: we had a very good time together and when the days were running out, I took her to Laku and between us we chose the same bracelet, but each a different colour. Now she is in France and when I see the bracelet I remember the best days that we had.

That's why it is my prized possesion, and I want to have it for ever. It represents our friendship.

Why am I in the hospital?

When Lucy woke up in the hospital it took her a while to piece together where she was and why she was there.

She remembered that she had had a picnic with her friends on the beach and they had met there at two o'clock. When they were all together, Marta, who was very pretty, saw a cave far away. All of them immediately went into the dark cavern because it had started raining, so they had the picnic in that huge place. When Lucy saw that it was very deep, she wanted to explore it, but she was hungry. Suddenly there was an earthquake and some rocks were fallen and hit Lucy on the head and she became dizzy.

By the time she was groggy, her friends were eating the picnic and Maria realized that Lucy had disappeared. She went rapidly to see where she was and she observed that Manuela was on the floor and around her head there was a pool of blood. Maria quickly phoned the hospital and the ambulance came to take Lucy. And that is why she was in hospital.

Sporting heroes should try to be good role models

It is often said that every sport hero should behave properly, because a lot of people look up to them. In addition, they actually have a lot of money which makes them even more popular.

From my point of view, they should try behaving properly because many people admire them and how they cope with all the pressure or even how they work and strain in every match. Many people are influenced by them, which should make them be socially responsible. Therefore, if they give money to charity, as some of them do, they encourage people to do the same.

However, it is also true that they have right to live their own private life. Although a lot of people look up to them, they have the choice of living without the pressure that everyone will do what they do.

To sum up, like everybody, they are people, so they need to live their private life. Apart from this, as they know that a lot of people follow their steps, they have to do the right things.

The Egyptian journey

It was 17th  June 2012 when my trip started. The first day when I arrived all the men were looking at my familly it was a bit strange. We were waiting for the driver and when he came we took our luggage and went to the car. Why was it an amazing trip to go to Egypt?

Let's start with the way from the airport to our friends house. What we saw was a city built in the desert, a lot of soldiers and very important sculptures such as some pyramids, tomb and the Sphinx.

On top of that we went into one pyramid and the way to go to the tomb was so tiny that we were stunned.

One day we ate in a typical restaurant and, when we were going there, the thing that impacted me most was when I saw a dead horse in the river and around it was food and I saw rats!! But the most shock was when some children were swimming in that river!! I was astonished. 

Apart from this, the food that we ate was horrible and the bread was the best thing I ate, because the other things were odd. They gave us like a salad and some purées of chickpea, parsley.

If you ask me, this is the best trip I have ever had, because I know more about other religions and their cultures, and it was a new experience for me.

The Nikolas restaurant

I have been to a restaurant called Nikolas, which is a perfect place to have a meal with friends or family, or alone. The food was distinguished, we were gladly and cordially received by the staff and the atmosphere was amazing.

Some good points are that there is some Basque food and you can try it or you can also eat something else. If you ask me what type of food I would choose it would be the steak. This is because they prepare it perfectly. Another advantage is that they have their own car park and they have places to eat outdoors or indoors. The staff are really kind and the prices of the food are acceptable.

But not everything is good and it has its drawbacks, for example the location is strange because you can easily get lost. Another thing which I don't like is that younger children don't have a place where they can play. 

In conclusion,  the restaurant has some advantages but also has its downsides and there isn't any perfect restaurant.
