NEW MOON

In my free time, I sometimes go with my friends, to Figueras to look at shops, listen to music...What I like is going to the cinema. I always like to see films at the cinema, it is different in my house, because everything is bigger and at the cinema it is exciting louder the at home and the films are more exciting.
The last time I went to the cinema I saw "New moon" it is the second part of "Twilight". I like Twilight very much, but in the second film there is a lot of actionand the film is very exciting.
I like the film because I identify myself with Bella, the main character.
The film is a love (what I usually like), Bella falls in love with a vampire called Edward. They have a different relationship from reality. It is a very intrigning film. I feel indentified because in the second film he tells her she must go away.

OUMAR'S STORY

Oumar (not his real name) sells his handbags, baseball caps and sunglasses. On the promenade between Santa Margarita and Roses. In Senegal, "there are no jobs, no work at all there". They didn't want to pay a fixer to get to Europe because they cost 2000 pounds.
Oumar and his brother hid on a ship going to the Canaries for four days. It was dark, noisy and very, very cold.
And at the end of the trip, they had to jump ship and swim the last part.
The two brothers made it to Roses, where they had some friends who helped them. They spend the summer here, and then the winsters down in the south, usually in Malaga.
The have a family back home in Senegal and they try to send money, but it's not easy.

John Lennon

John Lennon was born in Liverpool, England in the year 1940. He was one of the most famous musicians and composers of pop and rock music.
Lennon usually played the guitar and sometimes the piano in his songs. A lot of his songs are about his past, for example "mother" which he wrote in honour of his mother. One part of the song talks about his father who abandoned the family when he was little: "Father, you left me, but I never left you...".
Lennon formed a group called "The Beatles" with Paul Cartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. One of my favourite songs is "Let it be". Of her favourite songs are Imagine, Stand by me and Twist and Shout.

Imagine

Imagine there's no heaven. It's easy if you try and no hell below us above us only sky. Imagine all the people, living for today. Imagine there's no country
it isn't hard to do nothing to kill or die for and no religion too. Imagine all the people living life in peace you may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one
maybe someday you will join us and the world will be as one.
Imagine no posessions I wonder if you can no need for greed or hunger or Brotherhood of Man. Imagine all the people sharing all the world you may say that I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one and maybe someday you will join us,
and the world will be as one. You may say that I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one maybe someday you will join us and the world will be as one...
