My ideal home

My ideal home would be a flat in downtown London, because it's actually my favorite city in the whole world. I prefer downtown and not the outskirts because it's near everything, and if I'd have a job, it'll be easier to go on there each morning. 
First of all, it'd be a flat in Camden town. It would have a beautiful and florewed entrance, and nice neighbours. It wouldn't be too little, but not too spacious either. It would have a nice hall, with a cosy fireplace, to rest a little bit in the rainy days. In the hall, it also would have a very big TV, up the chimney. It would have two sofas, one bigger and another little (just for one person). It would have many paintings and posters of my music idles: Lana del Rey, Arctic Monkeys, Katy Perry...
My house also would have a very nice room, with a very big bed and such beautiful views of London city. It'd have a nice and big wardrobe, and another one just for shoes. 
My flat would also have a very modern kitchen, to cook italian and mexican food. 
It would have a bathroom, modernist and big, with strawberry aromathised towels.
It would also have a big terrace, with very big and colored flowers, and two chairs to drink some tea on Sunday mornings.
The most important thing of my ideal flat would be its modernism, it wouldn't be too big either, but it would be very modern.

If my house was burning

If my house was burning

If my house was burning, first of all, I would take my mobile phone, because it's the thing I mostly use of all, and obviously, the thing I mostly take care.
Secondly, I'd take “The Maze Runner”, my favorite book, written by James Dashner, which I bought one month ago.

I also would take my computer, because I use it almost everyday to watch TV shows, movies, to do my homework etc...

Also I'd take my sweatshirt from my trip to Oregon, USA, because it brings me many memories from when I was there visiting my sister. I missed her so much when she was there.

I also would take my camera because I use it to take pictures in almost all the 
trips I do.

After, I'd take my iPad because I have there a lot of music, pictures and memories from the trips I made, and because I use it truly too much.

And I think that's all I'd take if my house was burning.

Galway, Ireland

Hello, I'm going to talk about my travel to Galway, Ireland. 
This trip was so good, and I had a very great time there. 

This trip was specially organized by Silvia's cousin, Laia, and her boyfriend Jose. 

Galway is a city in the west of Ireland, it's not too big but not too small. I went to English lessons in the Galway Cultural Institute

The first day, I was so excited because I wanted to learn more english and I also wanted to make new friends from Spain and from all Europe.
 

My host mother was so nice with me and my house partner, Arancha, and I think that at the beginning she was a little bit shy.
She had a little daughter named Maria, and she was so cute and nice with us, she talked to us almost everyday and she asked about Spain. 
There was an italian girl named Veronica in the same house as us. She was 23 years old and she went to another school to learn english.

I made new friends, I have a great time there, and I'm sure that I'll never forget this trip.

Pride and Prejudice

Hello! 
This summer I've been reading a book while I was Ireland.
The name of this book is Pride and Prejudice, and it's written by Jane Austen.
This book is set in England, in the 18's century.


The story is about how was the love and the marriage in that century, and about how families were interested in their children's weddings, and all of that. 
It's specifically based in the Bennet's family, specially in Elizabeth Bennet who had a lot of prejudices of Mr Darcy, and in Mr Darcy, who had a lot of pride for talk with Elizabeth. 

I didn't like the book as much as I thought, but it was just okay. I just recommend it for people who love old love stories, because it isn't an easy book.

Breaking Bad

This summer I saw a serie named Breaking Bad.

The serie is about Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a chemistry teacher who doesn't have a lot of money, and one day he went to the doctor and the doctor said he had cancer. His brother in law, Hank, is a police agent of the branch anti drugs, specially anti meth. 

One day, Hank says to Walter if he want to go to discover a meth laboratory. So they go, and Walter stays in the car. When he's lopking to the laboratory, went out running, his ex student who went to his class of chemistry.

Walter decides to combine with his ex student, Jesse, for do the best meth in USA, with 99.1% of purity. 

MY PERSONAL OPINION 

I love this serie, is one of my favorites, and I recommend to everybody. Some parts of this serie are boring, for example when Walter talks with his wife or with his family, but it have some action and interesant parts. 

I liked so much the character of Jesse (Aaron Paul), because it's an interesting character for me, and he's a very good person but he hasn't got an easy life.

My favorite tv show

Hi everybody, I'm Juana. I didn't know what to talk about because I wanted to do a new post in my blog. So i thought to talk you about my favorite tv show.

The name of the serie is American Horror Story. It's a television show created and produced by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk. It's an horror serie, and it's about the typical American horror stories.

The first season (Murder House), takes place in Los Angeles, in 2011, and follows the story of a family that moves into an old and cheap house, because the parents have couple problems, and the house is haunted by its former deceased occupants. The main characters are Evan Peters, Taissa Farmiga, Connie Britton, Jessica Lange and Dylan McDermott. 

The second season (Asylum) takes place in Massachusetts in the 60's, and follows the stories of the inhabitants of a religious institution for the criminally insane. The main characters are Sarah Paulson, Jessica Lange, Evan Peters and Lily Rabe. 

The thirst season (Coven) takes place in New Orleans in the 1800's and 2013, and follows the stories and the wars between witches and witches of voodoo. The main characters are Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Taissa Farmiga, Evan Peters and Emma Roberts.

The four season (Freak Show) is already not avaiable, because it's by recording. But it's the last season of Jessica Lange. 

You can watch the serie in FX in USA and in the FOX channel and Cuatro channel in Spain.

It's my favorite serie because I love horror and because I love the actors and actresses of the serie. My favorite character is "Lana Winters" (Sarah Paulson in the second season) because she's a fighter woman and she's so brave. And my favorite season is the second because I loved how they can make you scary. I really recommend the serie for people who aren't too fearful.

Maleficent

Last saturday I went to the cinema and I saw "Maleficent" from Disney. I liked so much the film, so I've decided to write about it.

 It's the story of the villain of Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent. 

The main characters are Angelina Jolie, Elle Fanning, Sharlto Copley and Sam Riley. It's directed by Robert Stromberg and produced by Joe Roth.

The story is about a fairy who lives in a magical kingdom nearly the humans kingdom. 
When she's 13 years old, she meets a human boy, Stefan, who wants to be a king. 
They start to begin friends, and when she's 16, she receives her first "real love kiss".  The kingdoms are in war, so the king of the human kingdom said that who kills Maleficent, will be the new king. Stefan lies Maleficent, and he cuts her wings.
When Maleficent finds out that, she become bad, because Stefan broke her heart. 
Stefan has a baby (Aurora) with the queen, and Maleficent make an incantation, and said that the baby will fall asleep when she will have 16, and only will can wake up with the "real love kiss". 

I loved so much the film because they act very well, and I like the characters, I recommend the film to everybody. 

I loved too the soundtrack of the fim, "Once Upon a Dream" from Lana del Rey.
