Television

I like many pieces of technology, radio, computer, mp3 player, but I think than my favourite piece of technology is the television.

I don’t know when the first time I watched TV, but my earliest memories are with me watching television.

I watch TV every day, I wake up watching TV and I go to sleep watching TV, I can watch TV all day making zapping. I like watch all kind of programs and TV shows, I like so much cartoons, I’m a great fun of Cartoon Network, Jetix (ex-Fox Kids), Nickelodeons and Disney Channel, in this channels I watch TV shows like Avatar (the legend of Aang), Naruto, Dragon Ball (the first season, Z and GT), Sponge Bob, Wolverine and the X-Men, etc. But I watch other shows like Overhauling, Scared, MythBusters, Late Night with Conan O’Bryan, Friends, Two and a Half Man, between others. And of course, I watch many movies.

I watch TV basically for entertainment, but I watch for information too. I watch the news every day, because I like watch the sports news and the weather for to know how dress me the next day.

I don’t know why I like so much the television, maybe it’s because I grew up watching TV.

When I think how would be my life without television, I can see me like a sportsman or a brilliant student, it’s funny I know than television make me a lazy man, but I like it.  

War 4 Peace

It’s very difficult to say “what is my favourite song”, but I can say in this moment there’s a song than I hear every day and I like so much, the song is called “War 4 Peace” by a band from Tijuana, Mexico “Los de Abajo”. This song is from their album called “Latin Ska Force”, and it’s a very nice song, you can dance with this song because it has a rhythm ska and of course it’s a song with social lyrics.

I hear it for the first time in my home at one month ago; I hear it because a friend told me about this band (Los de Abajo), he said me than it was a very good band and he told me about their lyrics and music style, and I downloaded some songs by the band and all songs I liked, but this one I liked so much.

This are the lyrics

It's just la realidad

El mundo huele a guerra siniestra
y todos van directo hacia el precipicio
petroleo, violencia, masacre, muerte, 
bacterias, la religion y militarismo.

Yo soy mexicano, soy centroamericano,
siempre cantando y apoyando a mi paisanoma
nada me tumba pues, siempre estoy bien parado
en el momento y el lugar mas adecuado.

Rodeado de mi gente voy siempre hacia adelante
no hay limitaciones soy el dueño de mi mente
watch out llego el tiempo de meditar
watch out o el momento para avanzar, "POW!"

Jamaicano, boliviano, africano,
no se de donde vienes, pero eres mi hermano(ma)
si mi cultura quieres conocer(e)
cuenta con mi canton al que le puedes caer.
Cubano, chileno, latinoamericano,
no se de donde vienes pero eres mi hermano(ma)
si tienes problemas yo aqui voy a estar(a)
cuentas con un carnal en el que puedes confiar.

Ouou...momentos crudos, dificiles de asimilar
Ohh no no no ohh no no no
no me importa si eres afgano, turco o musulman
en lugares personales trata de ser y mirar al frente
ya no hay violencia que perturbe a mi gente
porque el odio y el desprecio no nos caben en la mente.

No es tiempo para matar
es tiempo de amar y brillar
no es tiempo de asesinar
es tiempo de amar.

Hoy no hay frontera que valga para detener a esta gente
ya mande todos a volar, la tierra es mi mente

Jamaicano, boliviano, africano,
no se de donde vienes, pero eres mi hermano(ma)
si mi cultura quieres conocer(e)
cuenta con mi canton al que le puedes caer.
Cubano, chileno, latinoamericano,
no se de donde vienes pero eres mi hermano(ma)
si tienes problemas yo aqui voy a estar(a)
cuentas con un carnal en el que puedes confiar.

A few days ago i look this page and it’s a nice place and a great tool to learn English. There are many activities and exercises to do. “Football Quiz” is an activity very funny, it’ has three levels, here you have to answer some questions and if you have three right you make a goal. In this activity all question are about football that is great and it make easier to learn because the activity is like a game and if you win you learn.

There’s another activity “The Flatmates”, it’s a little serie about four flatmate (of course) and it shows differents situations about their lives. This activity is very nice because you can learn vocabulary applied in differents context.
