Summer!!

Hi everybody !!!
As you all know, we will have summer holidays in a few days.
Last tuesday our teacher Cristina play some music in the computer, to be more precise 60's 70's and 80's music. I remembered I saw a film called "Walking on sunshine".
This film is a musical about this kind of music. I like so much this film and it's always awesome to hear song that you have sang in your young years, in my case, I heard some of them when I was a child.
Here you have the trailer of the film.
I think if you like he music you will enjoy this film for sure.

Hard Holidays...

Hello guys.

As you all know, many people died in the plane crash because the copilot wanted to kill himself and he slammed the plane into the Alps Mountains.

If you take a minute and think about their families and friends you have to recognise that this holidays are unbearable. I can't imagine my easter holidays without my family and friends....

I'm sorry because of these families.
