Hamlet:
You lying stupid fatherless big smelly half-witted coward! You are as
stupid as the difference between a handsome rich brave hero and thyself!
Speak your mind!
You are as brave as the sum of your fat little stuffed misused dusty
old rotten codpiece and a beautiful fair warm peaceful sunny summer's
day. You are as healthy as the difference between the sum of the
sweetest reddest rose and my father and yourself! Speak your mind!
You are as cowardly as the sum of yourself and the difference
between a big mighty proud kingdom and a horse. Speak your mind.
Speak your mind!

Hamlet:
Thou art as lovely as the product of a large rural town and my amazing
bottomless embroidered purse. Speak thy mind!

and the sum of a squirrel and a white horse. Thou art as beautiful as
the difference between Juliet and thyself. Speak thy mind!

Speak your mind. You are as worried as the sum of yourself and the
difference between my small smooth hamster and my nose. Speak your
mind!
Juliet:
Speak YOUR mind! You are as bad as Hamlet! You are as small as the
difference between the square of the difference between my little pony
and your big hairy hound and the cube of your sorry little
codpiece. Speak your mind!

4th Task: Your favorite piece of technology

This time you`ll have to write about tour favorite piece of technology or gadget.

What is it the gadget you always use and wouldn`t know what to do if you don`t have it. Or maybe you really like it, but at times you just don`t use it.


In my case I use technology and I love it, but sometimes I just do not want to use or just do not need it especially when I am on vacation, depending on where I am. Sometimes I just want to enjoy the sightseeing or the activities there are to do there.  

Anyway if had the money I would buy a kindle or something like it, to read books on the subway or anywhere I go, I need to read, I do it all the time, and I really think it is great invention. Although I would still go on buying and reading books cause I like the sensation of touching and looking at them. I also like the cover, the introduction, and I also like to see how many editions the books have for instance etc.

Apart from the kindle I also like the mp3/4 series as well as IPod, all intelligent phones telephones, they are great fun and useful in different aspects. To communicate, to listen to music, to take photographs, to connect to internet, write notes, keep information, etc. For some people I imagine a gadget is their best friend and is almost like a person when they feel lonely.

I was born before all this technology appeared and I think it makes life much easier, even though I do not depend on it, like other people and I still remember times when all these  things didn`t exist and the pace of life was different. There was more sharing, children played more with each other there was more chatting, face to face conversations, etc. Sometimes I missed the good all days…

The idea is that you write between 250 and 280 words
Enjoy and good luck don´t forget to post your classmates!

See you,
J

3rd Task: Themed free post

Hey how are you doing?

Today is a free themed topic, although we have to come to a desicion as a class.Everybody has a agreed on writing about music.

The music you like most, that is to say the band, the singer , the type of music you like most, when do you listen to it, do you just listen to it or you like dancing it?

Through out the years I have learnt to like different music such as tango, ballads or blues, rock some of it to dance and other just to listen to..I belong to the period of The Who , The doors, Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin,Neil Young, Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, The rolling Stones, the Beatles, Presley, Carol King etc.It was such an interesting period , everything was happening in those times, Vietnam, Woodstock, Politics, for me it was an open minded period, There is so much written in that period too, so many poets and writer here in South america and in the world too.

Here in Chile we believed in the concept of a new man a free man what a deceit, a fallacy... an utopia...!Any way it was a very interesting period to live on, and I feel proud of it.

I also like  fados , jazz, popular songs as well as romantic ones.also like serrat and Sabina, argentinian and chilean rock.Another type f music that i grew with , is classicla.I love Bach , Beethoven and many other as Wagner, Mozart, The rite of spring by Stravinsky which shocked  the people at the time.

I could go on and on talking about music , films books for ages...but I wat to listen to you, what are your likes and dislikes about the matter.

So go ahead...

Enjoy, don`t forget to post on your classmates and write between 200 and 230 words.
