SUCKY HUMANS ARE DRIVING A SHOCKING NUMBER OF PLANTS TO EXTINCTION

This new talks about the importance of the plants for the humans. Thare are 390.000 known plants species, the humans utilize 30.000 of them for food and medicine. And one in five plants are in risk to extinction because the human activities. 
Humans need plants for everything. The plants regulate a lot the climate, without plants we woludn't be here. If humanity continue like now, we will have to pay the consequences. 


OPINION.
I choose this new because it talks about one of the global issues, the lesson that we are doing in class, and I thinked that maybe it's interessant. So, I really think that the humans are very stupid, the people know that the plants are important, but, it doesn't matter for them, they only think about the money, and this are the consequences. I don't like talk about this type of things, but it's necessary to do it, because the people don't do anything to stop it, well, yes, maybe a 25-30% of the population of the Earth, but, and the other 70-75%? We need everybody doing something to help the plants, and that's difficult.

EUROVISION

Hello guys! Today I'm going to talk about Euriovision, the famous programme of Europe! It consists in a singer, or maybe a band, that represents the country of they comes, they sing in the programme, and the best  song wins. Easy. 
So, this year the winner was Ukraine, with 534 points. Followed by Australia with 511, and in the 3rd place Russia with 491 points. 
I'm agree with the winner, the song of Ukraine have very strength. But my favorite is Russia, because they used special effects that was really incredibles. So, I'm very disagree with the pontuation of Australia, because they aren't an Europe country, but, well, it doesn't matters, if they want I let them participate in the competition, but, his song is very normal! 
And, another thing that I don't liked is that, the countries don't select the typical person of they conutry, I mean, for example, the typical australian is with blue eyes, very blond hair, and a pale skin in winter, or the other type, the aborigine, with dark skin, dark colour hair... But no, the singer is a chinese girl. 
Well, the things change. Congratulations for Ukraine! 

THIS IS THE REASON YOUR JEAN POCKETS HAVE TINY BUTTONS ON THEM

It buttons are called rivets and his work is prevent jeans wearing out and ripping at the seam.

OPINION:
Well, when I read the title I thinked that's his work was something more interesting, it's bastant logical and before to read it I think that his work was keep the seams united, and of course, this is the work that it does!

TURISM IN BURGOS AND LEÓN

Hey, what's app everybody! Today I will show you my trip to Burgos and León which I do with my classmates. 
So, in Burgos we visited:

- The Cathedral: It's an enormous cathedral, with gothic style and beautiful crystals in the windows.






































- The Human Evolution Museum: An amazing museum with amazing things like a whole skull which have more than 300.000 years, called Miguelon. 


















- The Archeological Sites of Atapuerca: One of the most important site of the world, here was where they found Miguelon and others.





Between BURGOS and LEÓN we find the "Médulas":


- The "Médulas": It's an old gold mine opencast, the biggest in the Roman Empire. The Romans collected the gold with this method: they did canals in which the water enters, and this stays here for days and finally the mountain falls and this was the result:




































In León we visited:

- The Valporquero's Cave: An enormous and amazing cave maked for the water and with incredibles stalactites and stalagmites.  






And, finally, we visited 
- The Cathedral of Leon: It isn't big like the Burgos Cathedal but it have very beautiful crystals too. 





So, that's all I hope you like it, and maybe now you want to visit one of these places.

FLOWERS TIME

Hello! Today I will explain you what's the time of flowers "Temps de Flors". 

Time of flowers is a festival celebrated in Girona, Catalonia, it's lasts ten days more or less in the month of may, and it's a very important festival recognized around the world. Is the most important festival in Girona and with reason.
Time of flowers began in 1954 when a little group of people decided to do a competition about the exposition of flowers. It started to become a big competition and finally in 1979 it was a big exposition, and in 1992 it became a typical festival of Girona. 
And, why am I talking about it? Well, yesterday I went to see it with my boyfriend and woow, it's really fantastic. The people that do it are very creative and have a lot of imagination. This has been the first year that I have been and will not be the last.
This year the festival is from the 7th of May to the 15th of May. I recomend you that if you have time and it's possible, you go, because it's worth it. The problem is that there are a lot of people that know about it, and they go, and it's a little bit stressful because of all the people that there is, but really it's very beutiful. 

I leave you with some photos  that I have done this year 2016:

HOW TO BECOME A BETTER MORNING PERSON

Hi! Today we are going to comment this article that I found in the EliteDaily. It shows five steps to do to become a better morning person.

1. Don't touch your smartphone for the
 first 15 minutes. 
2. Stretch. It helps you wake up with more energy.
3. Drink a glass of lemon water. It gives you more energy too.
4. Set three priorities for your day. You increase productivity in your day.
5. Listen to music. It makes you wake up more happy and in good mood.



And if you wake up early and you can take a shower, or you can do the things more relaxed and calm, it hepls you too. 


OPINION.
Well, maybe it works, it seems logical, you don't know until you try. So, maybe I'll it, but I preffer more time to sleep and be in the bed, then getting up earlier and lose time to sleep. It's difficult. But maybe one day I will try it, and if it works I'll keep doing it. 

So, that's all, I hope that it helps you and if you try it and it works for you, do it every morning and you will  become a better morning person.
