The 8 secrets of success
This is a three-minute video which comes from TED.com
Everything he says makes sense to me and I like his humorous style.
But which of the eight secrets of success do you think is the most important? It's probably a combination of all of them, but is one of them more important than the others?
They don't mention "luck", do you think luck is important at all in life? for example, let's say in exams, is luck important?
You can share your opinions below.
You can check here Richard St.John's full bio and more links.
We all need some listening practice to improve our English, but not only that!

or a millionaire?
or fulfill your dreams?
Listen to this video and maybe we learn how!!

An unforgettable holiday
I went to Palamós with my family last year.
As soon as we arrived, we went to the hotel to leave the bags.
My cousin Luis, likes exciting holidays, but I like to relax, so we went for along the shore the beach.
Suddenly, I left as if someone pushed me and I fell into the water dressed!
then I wanted to kill my cousin, but later that day, while my cousin was having a bath in the pool, I was took his clothes and left only a towel. When he left the pool, he had to go to his room with a towel.
Afetrwards, I didn't fell so bad, because I got my revenge and I decided, I don't like exciting holidays!

An unforgettable holiday
I’ve been to Bora Bora with my best friends Marta and Andrea. We went to a hotel in Motus. As soon as we arrived, I went to the bungalows in the water and we left our bags there.
Then we went to the spa, because we like to relax. Afterwards we went to the beach. Andrea likes to relax and she sunbathed on the beach. Marta and I like active holidays, therefore Marta and I went to swim with dolphins, they are very beautiful. Then we dived. We saw corals, and stingrays. Afterwards we went to feed sharks.
Later, we saw monuments and stone temples, in Anau, Vaitape and Faanui and took photos. Then we bought souvenirs.
Ultimately Marta, Andrea and I went to the hotel and we saw fishes, stingrays, turtles… through the ground glass. We ate mahi mahi and we slept in the bungalow.

My Celebrity
Jorge Lorenzo
First of all, Jorge Lorenzo is a motorcycle road racer in the MotoGP Championship. He is very friendly, sensible, and the most important thing in my opinion: he is the best. He runs for official Yamaha team and he is the 1st rider of the team. On the last championship he won it, although he also won twice the 250cc championship.
Jorge is a very important sportsman in Spain, but we can't forget Dani Pedrosa, because inasmuch as his personality he is more cheerful than Dani, but Dani is more sensible. And finally, on the asphalt I think the two are very good.

MY BEST FRIEND
My best friend is one of the kindest persons I know. She is dark-skinned, medium height, and slim in aspect. In dress and manners …what can I say? She always makes the right choice! (Although, almost all her dresses are black. That is a little boring, at least for me).
She has got a lot of qualities, but there is one thing I love the most about her: She always tries to help as much as she can. Maybe that sounds rare, but for me it’s an astonishing quality.
She has got a lot of hobbies but the one she loves the most is manga. All her drawings are made as is due. Maybe that’s why all her drawings are just mind-blowing. She is very professional, organized, businesslike and yet somehow a little clumsy.
I haven’t seen her for 5 years now! But I can still make a guess about how she looks like. I suppose she is taller and maybe less butterfingered. I’m sure she has got good-looking features.
I’m sure we’ll meet soon or at least I hope that.

What I like doing in my free time
One of my main interests is skateboarding. Every day I go to skate to the skateplace of Los Planos. I have a lot of friends in the park. At nights I watch videos of my friends or professionals riders. At the weekend I go to Barcelona to practise, I like the places there. Once a month I compete in contests with other people of other cities: last year I finished third of Cataluña.
My other interest is playing football. I love playing football with my team, the CE Sant Gabriel. Sometimes I go to stadium to play matches versus other teams. I like it because is a collective sport.
I love the two sports, but I love more skateboarding, because it is more freedom; I skate when I want, and not when the trainer wants. In addition, with skateboarding I travel to other cities and countries!
