El final
Vi el final del mundial la semana pasada y, para mí, fue un partido bastante agradable. Normalmente no me gustan los partidos sin goles, pero este tuvo tantos casi-goles que pude prestar atención. Me maravillaron tantas oportunidades perdidos por los mejores jugadores del mundo. Al principio no tenía un favorito pero me encontré hinchando por los argentinos, quizás porque me pareció el equipo alemán una maquina, mientras los argentinos jugaron con más desorden y emoción. Sin embargo no me decepcionó demasiado al marcar Alemania. Fue un gol hermoso y creo que es una mejor manera de terminar un partido que un lanzamiento de penaltis. Ha sido el mundial que he seguido con la más atención, y un beneficio de hacerlo es poder hablar del tema con hispanohablantes que aprenden inglés.
What Is Doing a Girl Like You In A Place Like This?
(A very popular song of the 70's)
What is doing a girl like you in a place like this?
What kind of adventure have you come looking for?
Your age gives you away, baby, you are out of place,
you go hunting, Whom are you going to hunt?
Don't use your games with me.
Fatal woman, by always having problems
What do you have in your eyes? baby, perhaps, Are you going to cry?
I know that anyone hurt your pride in a dark hallway,
Don't try to catch me, I have already learnt to fly.Lyrics

It Is Only Left
What little is left about our love,
there is scarcely anything, scarcely even words,
it is only left the silent which it makes burst the cold night and long,
the night which it doesn't end, that's only left.
It is only left the feeling like crying by seeing that our love walks away,
face to face, we looked down because of it is not left nothing to speak.
It's not left anything, little tenderness, and
sometime by doing a madness, a kiss to force.
It's left a kind gesture not to do life unbearable
and so to drown my sorrow, that's only left.Lyrics

The Moon
This week I read a piece of news about the moon. The arrival of the first human there has been celebrated.
I didn't live in that date, but I think it might be a great event.
Sometimes I think about the intelligence of the humans to achieve these kind of goals. Curiously the development of the human beins has allowed to develop the society. The use of natural reourceshas been very important because they have been the most important factor to our development.
Now we can fly to the universe, we can do a lot of things .... basically thanks to the natural resources, but we must have care with the use that we do of them.
But focusing on the moon, I wonder a lot of times if that even could be real or it was a tale very well thought. What it the main mistery of the moon? I think behind the moon may have a big mistery that anybody wants to reveal us. If it has been 45 years from that the man could walk on the moon, why not now?
Now we have better tecnology than before, our planes are better designer, the safety is better, so What is the main reason that anybody has gone to the moon? Or It is a secret that anybody wants to reveal. Anybody has leaked anything about it.
There are people thinking the possibility of building a place there .... all are theoires but when will be the second time that the man come back to the moon?

Antarctic Heroes
It's eighteenth of January of nineteen twelve. The captain Scott accompanied by Evans, Wilson, Bowers,Oates reaches the South Pole but he fails to the feat of being the first, On the zero latitude point the Norway flag of Captain Amundsen is waving, by being exhausted and failed, they return at home.
It's sixteen of February in South Pole, five English men by the blue dessert,
Evans goes the last of the row, and the death goes hanged from his backpack to show that when one dies is not so bad in that place.
There was not tombstone, but there was talk,
God save the Queen, Eternal glory for Antarctic heroes.
It's sixth of March and Oates can't stand any more,
His feet are two glass knives due to drag himself on some stretches,
he has his hands frosty too, but nobody wants to abandon him,
and while they are sleeping, he passed to eternity.
There was...
It's thirty of March, the diary of Bowers, Wilson and Scott finish here.
That the aids, which they never came, go to those who remained:
our children, our widows.
As(is it possible that it happens to) an English man die three.
There was not tombstone, but there was talk,
There was not god, neither there was a queen,
there was only eternal snows in the Antarctic.
Who remembers Captain Scott, Evans, Wilson, Bowers y Oates?

Laika(a tribute)
It was russian and it was called Laika,
it was a very usual female dog,
it started being a current animal and became a mundial star,
it was put inside a spacecraft to observe its reaction,
it was the first astronaut in outer space.
The rocket is ready to throw,
the ground control says to Laika "goodbye".
All was silent in mission control looking forward to any signal,
everybody, by using headphones, heard barking to the dog,
while there was a big party on the earth,
shoutings, laughters and champagne,
Laika looked through the window,
What will be that color ball? What am I doing turning around?
The rocket...

A night by telescope, a new light appeared,
no one could give a explanation at sun rise,
and if we believe the legend
then we have to think that there is a dog less on the earth
but a star more in the sky.

It Is Hard To Forget You
Between the sky and the ground there is decisive something to go bald due to remember so much.
And that something which am I myself is a bifrontism picture which only gives an option,
The seen side is an ad of Signal, the hidden face is the result of my genial idea of throwing out you.
It's hard to forget you
It's hard to forget fifteen thousand charms is a lot of sensibly,
and I don't know if I will be sensible, what I know that it's hard to do somethings when I don't want.
and although I was who decided that it was enough,
and I didn't get tired swearing that there will be no second part
It's hard to forget you.Lyrics

The last thing which it is lost
That individual ragged and always starving had an unhappy and sad life. The only way to survive that he had, was to stoop to humiliation of living of compassion of the rest which it became to a parasite whose society tried to isolate.
He lived and worked under soil literally because of he spent the most time inside of Madrid tube, he used to move, he simply remained in a corner and played the accordion.
That day he only received the generous donation from a happy elder, anyway, it gave strength himself to go ahead. Lyrics

The Perfect Night
It was listening to the first chords in the song and my feet carried me to the centre of dance floor. I really felt happy, I love to dance and the night invited to it. Summer, music and you. I approached to your side, I looked you and I couldn't avoid smiling. You provoke that effect on me. Only looking you then I know that all is good. You make me happy. I don't remember the last time when I felt like that, but it didn't already matter, I have just decided that it would be my perfect night. Lyrics

Selective Memory
I learnt not to remember to you, to forget that embraces which you gave me and saved me from all evil of the world. Memories forgotten deliberately. Kept in a drawer of our memory by the way.Lyrics
