FENG SHUI:

It is the Chinese system that helps us to live in harmony with the elements and the natural forces of the earth. Currently this technique has been spread worldwide.

The arrangement of the furniture, the colours used in each room, as well as the location of the building are essential in Feng Shui, that allows the environment be in balance and provide us with positive energy. The Feng Shui uses colours, numbers, symbols of animals and the five elements (earth, water, fire, metal and wood).

THE ORIGIN:

In the Imperial China, the Feng Shui had only access in the wealthiest buildings. Even it was applied in the location and orientation of the tombs. It is believed that Feng shui influence in the fortune of the descendents.

In the last decade Fng shui has become enormously popular and has spread it all over the world.

FENG SHUI in the bedroom:

Walls should be soft colours and carpets should be light colours. The bed should be placed so that the head or foot of the person doesn’t face the door. You should try not to sleep under a window.

FENG SHUI en the living room:

The living room should be near the front door. The sofa must not be in the middle of the room back to the door. The centre table should not be in the centre of the room, but in sideways. The windows have to be large to allow the entrance to the sunlight and also the curtains. The television must be in the worst place of the room, away from the sofa and the armchairs. And when it is not in use must turn it off to avoid radiation.

FENG SHUI in the bathroom:

Bathing should invite relaxation, use few ornamentation, natural lighting if possible and the mirrors have a positive effect in the bathrooms.

The soft colours are the best; you can apply them in the bath towels or curtains. The green colour is the colour that suits the best with a good relaxation.

FENG SHUI in the kitchen:

The most appropriate location for the kitchen is at the west. It must be well ventilated, bright, spacious and the best colour is white because attracts good Chi. Also the bright colours makes your kitchen bigger.

This advises are universal in Feng Shui. There are many books that explain with detail more information about it. Transform it into something personal guided by your intuition, and this will change your life and also the others.

GREEN STREET HOOLIGANS

I'm forever blowing bubbles, little bubbles in the air, they flighty so high, nearly reach the sky, then like my dreams they fade and die...

SUMMARY:

Journalism student Matt Buckner (Elijah Wood) has been expelled from Harvard for a crime he didn't commit. His promising career ended and his future is desolated, he travelled to London to seek refuge with his married sister Shannon (Claire Forlani) and her husband Steve (Marc Warren).

Steve introduces Matt to his younger brother Pete (Charlie Hunnam) and through their friendship, Matt enters in the world of football fanaticism, secrecy and intrigued of the football firm.

Pete Dunham and his close knit group of friends make up the Green Street Elite (GSE), a hard group of West Ham United supporters, and one of the toughest London football firms. All the football clubs have one aim, to be the most feared and respected crowd in the country and no matter what it takes.

As Pete explains it's only about reputation, humiliating the other fans by beating them in a row. The strength that violence brings to Matt produces a sense of power that he has never experienced before. When Bovver, Pete’s right hand, discovers hidden information about Matt it sets off a devastating change of events that proves friendship, loyalty and honor in battle.

FROM MY POINT OF VIEW:

I personally don’t understand people who get into violent fights for no reason, no matter how hard you hit or how much they will receive. They don’t mind going out with shattered face, bruised arms and blood in their fists. I don’t think they can justify their behaviour. It reflects a world in which "when you learn that your face is not made of glass, all that matters are how hard you hit it."

Make your wishes come true.

Merry Christmas J

It's true, Christmas can feel like a lot of work, particularly for mothers. But when you look back on all the Christmases in your life, you'll find you've created family traditions and lasting memories. Those memories, good and bad, are really what help to keep a family together over the long haul.

Dear Student Affairs Coordinator:

As a representative figure of 2º BACH B, I’m writing in order to explain and to let you know how irritating and bothering we are with all the amount of exams. Each teacher makes as having more than two exams per term. From our experience, this is not the most effective way.

According to this stressful year, it would be a relive for the students to have some spare time in our timetable. Furthermore, if you can reduce the excessive homework we have, that could be an initiative quite appropriate to consider.

We feel strongly that your learning system can be improved if you follow our indications. We are trying to do our best. We also propose to give a lecture to our teachers explaining them all I mentioned above. However, we are doing our part to behave better in their classes.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you should enquire any further more information.

Yours sincerely, 

Patricia Carranza Achiaga

I think this way...

LIVE WITHOUT PRETENDING, LOVE WITHOUT DEPENDING, LISTEN WITHOUT DEFENDING, AND SPEAK WITHOUT OFFENDING :)

DON’T BE MISLED!

WHAT MORE COULD ANYONE WANT?

This naïve question is the key point for being a talented celebrity. Bear in mind, we always tend to reach what we don’t already have it. However, many people don’t keep their feet on the ground and that is the main problem for them.

On the one hand, we have celebrities such as Manuel Elkin Patarroyo who was the discoverer of the malaria vaccine. This admired man has made great achievements for humanity. That’s why he will be recognised forever.

On the other hand, there are some creepy and outrageous celebs that are now in the spotlight because the luck was on their side in a highlight of their life. Nevertheless, their instant fame will last few years.

Despite all of this, there will always be people that will be admire for their ability and other people who will be more successful and recognise than the first ones.

DON’T BE MISLED!!!!!
