My Perfect School

My perfect school is so much fun! There aren't many classes, only P.E., History and Maths, which are my favourites. School starts at about 10 o’clock in the morning. When I get there, I have biscuits and Cola Cao, which are given free in the canteen. Then I play football with my friends until about 11 o'clock.

I only go to class if I want to. If it is boring, I am not obliged to listen. Sometimes they have video consoles like PS3 in the classroom, so when I’m bored I can play my favourite games.

In my perfect school I eat pizza every day for lunch, except Fridays, when we have paella. After lunch, we have a siesta!

In my perfect school we don't have any teachers. Robots give us classes. And of course, there isn't any homework!

So, that’s my perfect school. Maybe it’s your perfect school, too!

Extraordinary!

This video is so amazing and so true... Those who are big dreamers are big achievers, so try on it!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011!!!

  We're back! Did you miss your classmates? Do you know what? I'm always curious about other people's New Year's Resolutions. Here are some of those, in no particular order, that I came across and found, well, interesting :
1. I will not look at boys - 13 year old girl
2. I will do less laundry and use more deodorant - Lazy and Smart Fellow
3. With that cloned cow having given birth and everything, I resolve to pay more attention to where my food comes from this next year - Organic Eater
4. I will not puff my entire body to twice its size and screech in her ear after my human has finished watching a horror movie. - Pet Cat
5. I will remember that life is not about how fast you run, or how high you climb, but how well you bounce. - Experienced Bouncer
  Now, the video you're about to watch is a Christmas present for you that the Three Wise Men left at home. Hope you'll like it.

"I will honor Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all the year" (Charles Dickens).

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas is love in action. Every time we love, every time we give, it's Christmas. So may Christmas be in your heart!

Exams are over!

A student grabbed a coin, flipped it in the air and said: 'Head, I go to sleep. Tail, I watch a movie. If it stands on the edge, I'll study' :p
Congratulations! You have finished your exams. Thank you for working hard and studying. Sure you'll be rewarded.

Exams are coming!

Hard days are coming but don't despair, everything wiil be all right. I'm not telling you it is going to be easy - I'm telling you it's going to be worth it.
