FAMILY






Is there anything better that having a family? I do not think so... I do not know how to describe my feelings about my family, but I just want to say that my family is wonderful. 

I live with my parents in a house in the countryside, is called "La Torrecilla", outside Lorca. Close to my house, there is another house of two floors which my father built when there was a earthquake in Lorca and my grandparents lost their house. In the first floor live my grandparents and in the second floor live my brother Bienve and his couple with their child, my pretty Maria Lucia. Also, my father has his job next to my house and my brother Pedro works with him.  
Apart, all the weekends my cousins, my aunts and my uncles come to visit us and we have amazing meetings together. For all of these I feel kind of  alone during the week when I'm in Murcia, because at the weekend when I return home my family is around me all time. 

Some people do not have the family near them, but I do, and I think that this is marvelous because they are a great support and I can see them whenever I want. I do not have any member of my family living in the abroad, just in Spain and the plenty of them are in Murcia. I wish I'll be always like I am now, because I don't want to think how I would be without them.

LIVING IN A HOUSE AGAINST LIVING IN A FLAT.  Block method. 

I live in a house in the countryside since I born. But when I was around 15 or 16 I wanted to live in a flat because I used to go there a lot and my parents had take me to everywhere. Last year I moved into a flat because I started at university, so now, I can see the difference between living in a house and living in a flat. These differences are what I'm going to discuss.

Living in a house. Depending on where the house is, you can make noise if you want to, since you do not have neighbors living above or below you. You can also have parties and you invite a lot of friends because you have enough space inside and can also use the garden. You can also build a swimming pool next to your house, or a barbecue or whatever you wanted to build. Similarly, you can have as many animals as you want, because you can take care of them in your garden. Furthermore, living in the countryside is better for your health because there is much less polution than in the city. The last thing I would like to point is that it is quiet there is no traffic noise to both you at night because there are almost no cars. 

Living in a flat. It  usually is smaller and cosier than a house but this depends on the size. The good thing is that you don't have to clean much, but the bad things are that you can't make noise because you have neighbors above and below you. Neither you cannot have any pets since you have to live together in a limited space and you don't have a garden. Depending on where it is, you don't have to use the car very often and because they are usually in the city  (the buildings usually are in the city), you don't spend much money on petrol.

Overall, a house is a more comfortable to live in because there is more space and if it is in the countru, there is more fresh air. You also have lots of space to do outdoor activities and can invite as many people you want. This is my personal opinion, but there are many people who live flats.

Bullfights. Opinion paragraph.

In Spain, to "see the bulls" means seeing how the bullfighter tries to hurt the bull. I know this sport is very popular in Spain and a lot of people enjoy it. But, why?, the bull is an image of Spain, so why we have to hurt this animal?. I'm oppose this game and always will. From my viewpoint, they have no reason to kill or hurt these animals; they should respect them and stop of showcasing them for people who have nothing else to do. Did you ask a person from another country his or her opinion about this game? Do it if you didn't ask, but I do, and all of them told me negative things, like: bad game, poor bulls, they are wicked by do that... Torturing an animal, and knowing you are torturing it, is crazy. The bulls feel pain, but cannot save it's own live since it is subjected to a series of systematic torture. We should put a stop to this game forever and leave the poor bulls,alone once and for all.

The best person for me.

The best person I know is my mother. This is not only  because she ' s my mom is because she is my best friend. 

She is 51 years old . She has straight black hair, and medium - high . Everyone tells us that we have the same smile , which I love. When I get home (because I'm living out of my house ) , she sits me down and she asks me how my week in Murcia has gone. I can tell her about everything. I do not lie to her because I'm not embarrassed to tell her my private things. She only tries to help me , so I don't have to hide anything from her. Apart from being the best mother , she is a great member of my family, because she is always helping us, she takes care of my niece, brothers , grandparents , father , cousins ​​... She is always doing something for someone else. We try to stop her, because  we never see her taking any time for herself, but she does not mind. She does everything she can to make everybody else to feel good.

If I has to describe a good person, she would be my mother. I'm so lucky to haver her because she is a great mother and I know that not everyone has a mother like mine. 

Spanglish

Spanglish is a morphosyntactic, semantic fusion between English and Spanish. There are many English terms  that are wrongly translated and used in Spanish, like “parquear”, “ir de shopping” y “mopear”. However this type of language is used in The United States, largely because of Latin Americcan's  influence over the years, which has led to an undeniable cultural fusion. The use of Spanglish has spread in everyday life and appears  in the mass communication. We can’t consider the Spanglish as a language, since it will not succeed replacing Spanish in the EE.UU.

On the one hand, there are a lot of people that don’t like Spanglish, because they believe it to be unsatisfactory mix of these two languages of different origin, and it’s destrimental to both languages.
And on the other hand, there are people who believe using Spanglish allows them to communicate in a more colloquial way, it is a need communicative and it shows creativity.

I do not consider Spangligh to be a language, or do I believe it ever will be or have its own dictionary , but people who live in that ambient, they can use Spanglish for informal comunnitacion for example, between friends or family. In many cases, we wrongy use Spanglish but that does not mean that Spanish will be modified.
