Last post

Well, this is my last post of 2nd of Batxillerat.

I’m very happy because summer comes; hot is here! I would say that this year has happened to me very rapidly; probably because it has been one year very intense in questions of working, studying ... and now I ‘m very tired and I have few forces but I know that these weeks are the final straight line and that I have to overcome it and with that, to end the course with a good way and beginning the summer well.

Sincerely, during this course I’ve worked very much but in many occasions I haven’t obtained the awaited results and because of it, often I was demoralized. But I knew that everything "bad" passed and I had to struggle to obtain good results.

I didn’t think of how 2nd of Batxillerat is, that is, so difficult. But, with my classmates everything becomes easier and seems softly. My plans for summer are working at somewhere, I don’t know yet I’m sending some CV! I think that will be a bit difficult to find some job for this summer… crisis is here yet.

Even thought 2nd Batxillerat finishes early, students have to prepare the selectivity exams. Teachers are talking about repeatedly about this exam during the whole course and now more than ever. These exams are so important for our so, depends on the mark that we get, we will be able to do the career we want to.

But well, first of all we have to think about the final exams and to get the possible high mark of Batxillerat; then, we will have time to think about selectivity.

Paella with chicken's recipe

Ingredients


· 600 grams of rice
· 1/2 chicken’s pieces
· 2 artichokes
· 2 red medium peppers
· 2 ripe tomatoes
· Pepper
· A garlic clove
· Parsley
· 1 fiber of saffron (or colouring)
· Olive oil (a glass, 1/4 of liter)
· 1/2 lemon
· Twigs of rosemary and thyme
· Salt



Steps:

1: We fried the chicken with oil. Once fried, we put it to boil with 8 water glasses.

2: Then, we fry lightly the artichokes, the pepper and we separate it apart. On the other hand, we fry lightly the tomato and the garlic.

3: We add the rice and we stir it with the tomato and the garlic lightly fried.

4: The chicken must be already boiled after one 1/2 hour and before the rice stops sautéing with the tomato and garlic, we added it all, so, we add the artichokes, the pepper the juice of half a lemon a bit of pepper, a bit of parsley, thyme, rosemary, the fiber of saffron punctured and salt.

5: We have the chicken with the other ingredients prepared in the paella pan. At the beginning we switch on strong fire; at the half of boiling we lower the fire and after, approximately, 20 minutes altogether, we’ve the paella ready to serve.






Variants:

With meat of pork: do it quite equal; add 200 grams of pork, it’ll be much tastier. Do it like the previous recipe (the meat of pork joins with chicken meat and do it step by step as I have said).


Tricks / Councils / Secrets: The lemon is important because the rice will be free. Water: it’s better to use mineral water. Don’t forget to do it in a frying pan or paella with the suitable size; the fresh ingredients must be the best quality; the fire must be distributed well by the paella pan; don’t wash the rice. Remember that a stuck rice in the bottom of the pan is the rice with the best flavor.


Don’t forget to clean the paella pan: after cleaning it and before keeping it, rubbing the pan with little bit of oil. The thyme and rosemary cultivate its in handles. These herbs have proved being a good allied against the cancer

Laws

The human tendency is to act according to their needs and priorities of each given to different moments in life. These needs are often passed over by anything, that is, that humans act, naturally, selfishly to get everything they want without respecting things an people that surrounds them. This is the reason because exist laws, to regulate the action of this natural tendency of humans and trying to establish a minimum of order in society.

On the one hand, as I said previously, laws are necessary to regulate human’s actions in this society and also to ensure the rights of all citizens. In addition, they represent a form of security that some people have agreed to cooperate together for the injustices among the inhabitants. They are also a good way to try to help the weaker against the stronger power who abuse others. Also these rules help to drive human behavior so that allows coexistence with others and establish an order among the different habitants.

However, we have to bear in mind who are that agree these agreements to maintain social stability. These laws are supposed to be valid for everyone, but certainly they are not; we only have to look up at countries, who have more economic power is who have the power in that country and who modeled the laws in their own way. For this reason, laws are not necessary because without them in those places where people are unjustly treated, they could live decently without them.

To sum up, I would like to say that laws are necessary for the reasons that I commented, that is, they are essential to live together in relative harmony and to establish a social order. In those countries where these laws are bad for people, someone should regulate it, allowing all citizens a decent life like everyone should have.

Mexico complaints to Arizona its new law

Each territory of any part of the world is divided into states, countries, etc. Each of these countries and states are governed and led by different leaders. Despite this division of territory, different countries have very close relations between them because the exchanges of goods and people or because in the past, these countries maintained a special relationship.

Currently, this exchange happens strongly, especially on the borders between different countries. An example of this exchange could be found in the frontier between Mexico and Arizona. Specifically, this border made it a huge amount of trade in goods such as people.

Because this exchange between both zones are equal and have no conflicts socially, economically, etc., usually these countries sign dealings which both countries agree to cooperate and exchange "peacefully”.

In Mexico, there is a large immigration of people from this area towards the United States illegally and in that border occur some illegaly exchanges as drug’s matter, an issue of great concern to Arizona, as it has announced.

Mexico complains that most of these immigrant people make grow up the economy, among other social issues, of the state of Arizona and other U.S. states. Mexico adds that criminalization is not a good way to stop illegal immigration.

To sum up, it’s important to remark that these border problems will not only happen occasionally and only in this area, but occur in almost all borders where you can find either a great exchange of goods and people. People try to escape of their country and moving to another doing it in an illegal way to seek better conditions of life. However, these exchanges are sometimes subject of dispute because in a lot of cases there is a drug trafficking, that gets some poison to the relationships between the borders of the different countries.

Love songs

Love song, it isn’t when you love someone, but when you remember. Nowadays love songs are born with which young people will die after eighty years.

The ideas pass, the chimeras become rusting, but love songs are living between us, either between the solemnities of a madrigal, under the tenderness of a bolero or fixed with drawing pins at the black leather of hard rock.

And all this survival about this genere must be for something. Without love songs we haven’t words of love and we wouldn’t know how consume some feelings which sometimes needs words.In these songs we have the only school that we still have to control our badly polite sentimental education.Only in words we feel safe. And when we put compasses and rhythms at love syllables, it’s the same that frame a child picture.

Why singers know everything? Who said to their, what happen to us? How have they penetrated into our feelings and they’ve done rhythm and verse? Not only it: when they sing, they steal us the gesture and pain.

It seems that they are really suffering for lost love or by fear of losing it. They are thieves of true emotions that we totally believed ours and, on the other hand, these emotions appear in the most inopportune time, at the radio. And then, we just sing it in low voice because nobody sees our hidden love.

Everything is explained. Everything is counted and sung.
