The Koala is one of the most endangered animals in the whole world. It’s so disappointing. Although people are trying to save the Koalas, there are only about 1.500 Koalas in the world. Koalas are endangered because they live in Australia and the urban growth is destroying their habit and their food. They eat eucalyptus and there are about 600 kinds of eucalyptus plants, but Koalas only like 100 kinds of eucalyptus and some Koalas only eat 4 or 5 kinds of this plant. 30 years ago people hunted Koalas, because they wanted their skin to make clothes (scarves, glows…) To save Koalas, people are trying to make an artificial food like eucalyptus and they are also trying to reproduce Koalas, to increase the population of these animals To sum up, the artificial plants and the attempt to reproduce Koalas will hopefully help Koalas to survive.
My name is Clara, and I am studying in IES Guillem Berguedà, this year I want to go to Sweden, so i must work hard. All the students of 3rd of ESO, we must create a blog, and in this composition I am going to talk about this blog and all the things that I have done in this year. First of all I’m going to talk about the blogs; we had to create a blog and the teachers told us that all the compositions that we have to do during the course, we had to hang them on the blogs. When we started the school, the Swedish and the Catalan people prepared an oral presentation for us, and I liked very much. At Christmas we made songs. In class we made four groups and each group made a song, and then the teachers chose a song and the winner song was recorded. We also hang an oral presentation in the blog but only with the voice recorded. Then, another day we had to listen to a radio program me but, I couldn’t listen to it because I was in a school excursion. And during the course we have done different activities, such as: doing comments in the principal blogs, doing different compositions. The activity I liked most was the recipe, we had to record a recipe, in my group we had to made a chocolate cake. It was very funny because we laughed a lot. The activity I did not like was hanging all the compositions in the blog, because it is boring. In the crass we have done some activities, for example watching films, going to the library to watch some oral presentations, all these activities were funny. Talking about my oral presentation; we had to need some information such as dates, or important people. I tried to look at the people when we did the oral expositions, but I was so nervous, so I don’t know if I read or not. If I were the teacher I think that I would have a good mark because we bring some accessories and I had worked a lot, because we didn’t remember to do it, we thought it about it until the night before. I think that my English has improved, for the speaking and writing.
It’s impossible to describe all my childhood memories. Because I have a lot! I will start describing my first snowy day, I think I was in my cot, and I woke up I took a look in the road and I saw something white on the road, and on the trees, I was excited but afraid at the same time. I also remember my first school day, I was at the door of my house happily but, when I arrived at school I started crying and I caught my mum, but when I saw the other students, I probably changed my mind. I have a lot of memories from the school, for example: my first homework, my first exam, my first best friend… My first communion is also present in my memory, It was incredible, all my family together with my best friends, in a restaurant, I was excited and very happy. And my fresh memory , was when I started high school, It was a big change for me because at my school, in all the school we only had7 teachers and n the high school there are 60!. In my class we were 8 and now we are 25!. It was also a change for me to go to school by bus, because in St, Jordi I went every day on foot. I think that I won’t forget any of my important memories.

I like many different songs, but these songs have something that I don’t like, and only one song hasn’t anything that I didn’t like, this song is “you belong with me” and the Singer is Taylor Swift, a young girl with blonde hair and blue eyes. She is a composer, she sings and she also plays the guitar and she is an actress. Taylor became popular two years ago and now she has sold more than 7,2 million of CDs. Taylor composes her own songs, she works in a company called” Big Machine Records” she sings country music. Her first album was realized in 2008 and she has 3 CDs of platinum.” You belong with me “is not the most famous song of the group. The song is about a girl, who falls in love with a boy, but the boy prefers another girl, and in the end he kissed the girl.
I like this song because the meaning is nice, and it has got rhythm, so I like it. For me is not very important, it’s only a song!. I like it to sing it but... nothing more when I am bored I sing and put the lyrics at the computer and I thing with a low voice. I like the general message of the song, I don’t fine any negative aspect in this song, but I would like that Taylor sing so quickly , because I don’t understand at the firs time , but it’s normal because an English boy will thinks the same of an Spanish song. I don’t like to change anything of this song , because, I like the song very much.
About the videoclip... I like it very much because it is nice, and it transmits you a great feeling, and you feel like dancing and singing. The videoclip is connected to the lyrics, but sometimes the videoclip goes faster than the song. The videoclip goes about a girl who lives in front of a boy, andhe speaks to her by means of papers and one day, the boy tells the girl that he is going to the dance with his girlfriend, and the girl thinks that she is going to the dance too, and she does it. At the end in the dance the neighbours become a couple.
To sum up, the videoclip and the song are beautiful and the singer sings perfectly and she also has a nice voice all her songs have got rhythm and you feel like dancing. Clara Comellas.
Lyrics:
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, She's upset She's going off about something that you said She doesnt get your humour like I do
I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesnt like And she'll never know your story like I do
But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're lookin for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me You belong with me
Walkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myself Hey isnt this easy?
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town I havent seen it in awhile, since she brought you down You say you find I know you better than that Hey, Whatcha doing with a girl like that?
She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me
Standin by, waiting at your back door All this time how could you not know that? You belong with me You belong with me
Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're about to cry I know your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams I think I know where you belong. I think I know it's with me.
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you? Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me
Standing by or waiting at your back door All this time how could you not know that You belong with me You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe You belong with me.
