Never too much!!!

Comment 09

Sometimes, we can think that something is too much for us, but that isn't true, we usually say that because we don't have desire of doing something, we prefer to stay relaxed without doing anything, although it may be better for us doing more than we want to do. But we don't think about it we prefer comfort and that can be really bad, because if we do not much, in the future, we won't want to do anything and that will harm us.

Now we are in our last year in secondary school, and we must do a lot of things, although we don't want to do, because if we do not do much, we won't pass all our exams, and we won't pass this last year. So we can say that never is too much, and that we always have to do more and more efforts. We don't have to do effort only in our school life, but we also have to do it in our normal life, because we also have a lot of problems in our lives, for example personal problems or shared problems like climate change and all the problems that it brings.

As I said we have the problem of climate change, that is a really big problem, and there are a lot of scientists searching for a solution to this problem, and they can be thinking that never is too much, because it is a problem that needs a lot of attention, so we can't be relaxed in our normal life, thinking that nothing will happen, because it isn't the future, the climate change is happening now in the present and all young people will live all the consequences if we don't do anything.

Finally, I reckon that we must give enough attention to all the problems and we should also think that never is too much, that is a very important sentence, because we usually think that it is too much, but we never think that "never is too much", so we need to put this sentence in our mind and watch the life from another point of view.

Mummy, one day I would like to play in the NBA if...

A few days ago we learned about some really bad news, a piece of news that broke the hearts of all those who are fond of basketball. The piece of news was that Pau Gasol, the Spanish basketball star, announced his retirement, so he will never play again in the NBA. It is really sad not to watch him again in one of these fantastic matches that he played. It is something that affect the world of sport and there were also some famous people who talked about it.

Pau Gasol started playing basketball in his school, and later he started his basketball career when he was accepted in FC Barcelona when he was 16 year old. Playing with them he became world champion with the junior national team in 2001. In the same year he went to the Nba where he played with Memphis Grizzles, where he played for some years. In 2008, the Angeles Lakers sign him in his team, where he started to win a lot of fame and was considered like one of the best basketball players in history. In the last important team that he played was the Chicago Bulls, he played with them for two years.

Pau was one of mi favourite basketball players, I liked to watch his matches because he played really well, one of my favourite matches is Spain against France in Semi-final of the Eurobasket in 2015 because it was a really exciting and interesting match because they were in tie all the match until the end, that Spain won thanks to Pau because he scored the last points in the match, scoring a total of 40 points by himself.

Finally, I think that Pau Gasol will be the best Spanish player ever because he did, during his basketball career, a lot of things and we will remember him for ever, although he announced his retirement and won't play more matches, because he made history in the basketball world, being famous for all the world. So, thanks Gasol for all you did!

For the moment being

We have already started a new school year, in our case it will be the last year in the secondary school, it will be really difficult, but we need to make an effort and finish well our studies at the secondary school. Last year was a bad and difficult year because of coronavirus, and we went through a lot of difficult situations, but we could cope with them, so I reckon that this year could be better than last year, so we can defeat the pandemia this year. 

Nowadays, we see a lot of bad news on television that make our excitement fade away, for example we usually see on television all the bad news about Covid-19 and that there are still so many cases in Spain and there are people that die diary ans that they leave all their dreams, illussions and their family and friends behind in the world. That is really sad because these people that die should have had the same opportunities as the people that continue alive and they had dreams and some goals in their lives. But that's not all, now we have natural disasters.

To all the problems we already had, we must add the volcano in Las Palmas, a volcano that started to erupt three weeks ago and that is still erupting and whose rivers of lava are destroying all the houses and constructions that were on the sides of the volcano, so there are too many people that have lost their houses and must have been evacuated because they can't be there because of the lava. The volcano are also emiting poisonous gas that could affect the health of the people who breathe it, so it is very dangerous.

Finally, I think that we are living a really bad situation, but we can't do anything to solve this bad situation because it is a natural disaster, and we only can wait until the volcano stops its eruption and the governement will have to find a solution for all these people that are losing their houses and some are also losing their fields and jobs, because they worked in the fields.

Don't miss the last train...

We are already in September and, bit by bit, the summer holidays are arriving at their end, we only have a few days until we return to our studies and routine, although nobody wants to return and everybody wants to be on holidays for ever. But although these are our last days before our return to the routine, we still should do something related with our subject, for example comments, and we should also revise what our teacher taught us last year, especially in languages, so we must revise English, reading, writing and listening so much.

During the summer we should have also done some work related to the secondary school, but we also did a lot of other entertaining things, although this summer there were still a lot of cases of covid-19, we have had more freedom than last year, so we could do a lot of more things like going to parties, travelling around Spain or visiting our relatives that live far away from us. In my case I travelled not much, I only went to Malaga to spend a few days there with my cousins. There we visited some places in Malaga, we visited Picasso Museum, it was really interesting to see all these works and we also went to "El Caminito del Rey", where we spent 4-5 hours walking and watching all the nature.

On the one hand, we want to return to the secondary school and meet all our friends and teachers daily, and spend a very good time with them, but on the other hand we prefer to go on with our holidays relaxed without doing anything in our houses, so I think that is difficult to say if we really want to return to the secondary school or if we prefer stay in holidays. Everybody is very calm and relaxed during the holidays.

Finally, I reckon that the holidays need an end, because if we were on holidays for ever, it would lose the importance and we don't think that the holidays are really enjoyable and in my opinion it would be really boring and tiring, because we wouldn't have anything to do and we would get bored.
