CASTLE, ONE OF THE BEST SERIES EVER

Castle is an American detective series starring Stana Katic and Nathan Fillion. The series is about a writer, Richard Castel, who spends time with the New York police, assisting in homicide cases with Inspector Catherin Beckett. Day after day, they fall in love more and more,  finally they get married in the second season.

I recommend seeing it because the truth is that the crime scenes are very original and the cases are different from each other, besides Richard is a very funny man and the chapters are very entertaining. 

I hope you enjoy it!

MY FRIEND ABIR

I'm going to explain a little bit about Abir.
Abir has been my best friend for four years, I met her at school. She's 17 years old, like me. She is studying the second year of 'Batxillerat' in Badalona, and currently she doesn't work, because she doesn't have enough free time.
Her parents are from Morocco, and she and her two younger brothers were born in Spain. Her mother tongue is Arabic, but she also goes to an English Academy four hourrs a week to improve this language, and because it will serve her in the future. As you can see, she is multilingual, she speaks Catalan, Spanish, English and Arabic.

She is very kind polite with others, she always tries to help when someone has a problem, she is very supportive and very emphatic, she knows how to put herself in the skin of the other. She is very careful with her things, for her everything has great value. Another value that characterizes her, is that she is very independent, she does not need anyone to be behind her all day, and also very responsible and organized. She is very self-confident and very positive when faced with a problem and has great abilities to overcome them.
SHe is very curious girl, she likes to learn new things. She also loves to be with her friends, go shopping, go for a walk. Without forggeting that she adores her family, and always spend  lot of time with them. If she has free time, she likes to go to the gym, exfoliate, free herself.

I have a lot of conficende with Abir, because we see each other in class every day. During the summer there is no school, but we go out for dinner, explain our problems.
Next year she wants to go to the univerity, she does not know what degree to do, but she knows that it will be related to sciences. Years later, she wants tostart a family and get married.

I hope that when you meet her, you get along very well,

I am going to describe a friend of mine called Amal, she is 16 years old and she is from Badalona. She lives with her parents and little sisters, sometimes her grabdmother and grandfather come to Badalona to visit her, at present they live in Morrocco. The fact is that her extended family lives here in Badalona so they can see each other very often. Amal is studying fist os a social baccalaureate. At the beginning it was not clear to her, she was not sure if she was capable but finally she plucked up enough courage and now she is doing it very well. 

She is incredibly friendly, she is really outgoing and nice to other people, she has a very strong personality that helps her to be independent and, sometimes, she is a bit loud, but that is because she is very funny and she likes to laugh very loudly. When we go down the street and she starts laughing, all the people turn to watch us and it is embarrassing for me, but it is okey. In fact, what I like most about her is that she always makes me laugh, and it is something that I should thank her. About how she looks like, I can say she is a beautiful girl. She is medium hig, which is a veil worn by some Muslim women, which usually covers the head and chest. She usually wears trainers and trousers or colorful dresses.

She likes to go out with her friends, and have some drinks or eat out. When she is resting at home she usually listens to music or makes muffins, she likes to cook desserts, she says it is a way to relax.

At the moment she is studying baccalaureate, but in two years she is going to do a law degree, because she wants to be a lawyer. This summer she is going to do the theoretical driving test, and I am sure she will pass it.

Are we too dependent on mobile phones?

The mobile phone is a device that receives ans sends out communications to long distance and is connected to a telephonic network. The mobile phone was invented in 1854 by Antonio Meucci and since then the frecuency of use of this divce has increased notrably.

Nowdays, people don't go out to the street without their mobile because we can do meny things with it. With this device we can make calls, take photos, put alarms, see videos...

I think that the mobile phone is an adventatge and simultaneously a disaventatge, because thanks to it we have left aside many things that we were in the habit of doing. The people should control the use of the mobile phone to enjoy a bit more what we have araound us.
