1 00:00:01,370 --> 00:00:06,669 Hello guys, my name is Violeta and I'm a student from 3rd grade in the Pablo Picasso High School. 2 00:00:07,190 --> 00:00:10,330 I live with my family, my older brother and my parents. 3 00:00:11,109 --> 00:00:16,410 Currently, I have no beds, but in the past I had two birds, Blue and Nube. 4 00:00:16,929 --> 00:00:18,870 I live in the first floor of a flat. 5 00:00:19,469 --> 00:00:23,949 Wouldn't exactly consider it tiny, but I'm sure it's not the biggest house of the neighborhood. 6 00:00:25,010 --> 00:00:30,750 However, the good thing about having a small bedroom is that you get to lose your things less often. 7 00:00:30,750 --> 00:00:35,549 so I think it's way better than how people imagine it is. 8 00:00:36,549 --> 00:00:40,009 I live in Pinto, which is a small village in the community of Madrid. 9 00:00:40,750 --> 00:00:43,689 My high school, Pablo Picasso, is located next to the mall, 10 00:00:43,950 --> 00:00:47,229 and at the other side, there is a nice park where you can take a walk. 11 00:00:48,030 --> 00:00:53,250 My school has a hall decorated with many photos, objects, pictures or crafts 12 00:00:53,250 --> 00:00:56,350 that have to do with the events that occur during the year. 13 00:00:56,350 --> 00:01:03,390 For example, we have a big craft in the world that says the 8th of March, the Women's Day. 14 00:01:04,670 --> 00:01:09,150 We also have a cafeteria where they serve good omelet sandwiches. 15 00:01:09,150 --> 00:01:10,590 You have to try them sometime. 16 00:01:11,310 --> 00:01:14,750 Our school is full of plants in the courtyard in a decorative way 17 00:01:14,750 --> 00:01:18,670 and we have a garden in which some students can participate during recess. 18 00:01:19,390 --> 00:01:22,590 There are soccer, volleyball and basketball courts. 19 00:01:23,150 --> 00:01:28,269 I think this is one of the best resources we have in the high school because most of the students 20 00:01:28,269 --> 00:01:31,790 dedicate their time in the recess to play some sport they like. 21 00:01:32,590 --> 00:01:37,629 The subject I like the most is biology. My teacher makes the content we teach 22 00:01:37,629 --> 00:01:41,069 interesting and creates activities that soften the way of learning. 23 00:01:42,510 --> 00:01:47,310 About what I do on a normal day, the first thing that I do is wake up and get up from bed. 24 00:01:47,870 --> 00:01:51,709 I usually have milk for breakfast and sometimes a few cookies 25 00:01:51,709 --> 00:01:57,870 because I'm not very hungry in the mornings. I take the bus at 10 to 8 and later I go into school 26 00:01:57,870 --> 00:02:05,069 at half past eight. When I get back home I have lunch more or less at half past two, not very late 27 00:02:05,069 --> 00:02:10,889 because I have volleyball training two hours later. I train four hours a week and sometimes 28 00:02:10,889 --> 00:02:17,370 play tournaments on Saturdays. In my house again I have a little snack and take a shower before 29 00:02:17,370 --> 00:02:24,810 doing my homework. Then I have dinner. My father is very good at making a Spanish omelet which I 30 00:02:24,810 --> 00:02:33,210 like very much as I mentioned previously. Talking about Spanish dishes of course my mother often 31 00:02:33,210 --> 00:02:40,789 makes gazpacho which is like a tomato soup but very salty. It can be confused with salmorejo 32 00:02:40,789 --> 00:02:48,129 but the difference is that salmorejo is composed mainly by tomato while gazpacho has other 33 00:02:48,129 --> 00:02:56,550 components like cucumber or pepper. Then after all this I go back to bed more or less well 34 00:02:56,550 --> 00:03:06,050 depends on the day if I have many homework or I have an exam the next day. I go back to bed 35 00:03:06,050 --> 00:03:14,889 at 11 p.m. more or less. I would like to talk now about Hollywood. In my opinion, I think it's a 36 00:03:14,889 --> 00:03:21,770 very interesting neighborhood, but as it is very popular, it's full of crowds and sometimes it can 37 00:03:21,770 --> 00:03:27,789 be annoying that there are too many of them, too many people. In general, I have always wanted to 38 00:03:27,789 --> 00:03:32,370 travel to the United States, but I think Hollywood would be one of the places in my travel list 39 00:03:32,370 --> 00:03:35,750 because of how much I love the world of cinema. 40 00:03:36,370 --> 00:03:42,810 I have related it so much to it that every time someone mentions the name to me, 41 00:03:43,370 --> 00:03:45,710 I instantly think about movies. 42 00:03:46,889 --> 00:03:51,270 Plus, it has other things that make it popular, like the Walk of Fame. 43 00:03:52,229 --> 00:03:58,250 I have friends who have gone and told me how interesting it was to see the more than 2,000 names of celebrities 44 00:03:58,250 --> 00:04:01,330 that are engraved on the floor in the shape of stars. 45 00:04:01,330 --> 00:04:05,889 to me it's a curious way to represent the success of people 46 00:04:05,889 --> 00:04:09,370 I would like to go at least once in my life 47 00:04:09,370 --> 00:04:14,550 to finish I will say that I really like this activity 48 00:04:14,550 --> 00:04:18,350 and I hope that English teachers continue 49 00:04:18,350 --> 00:04:22,069 that they keep suggesting this type of things 50 00:04:22,069 --> 00:04:25,769 because they are very fun ways of learning 51 00:04:25,769 --> 00:04:29,389 I am very glad of getting to know my partner 52 00:04:29,389 --> 00:04:38,689 and i hope i can talk to my partner again i am very happy that i am participating in this 53 00:04:38,689 --> 00:04:45,529 and the last thing i can say is thank you for listening i hope you liked it and goodbye
