UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE LIST

FUJISAN

Fujisan or Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan, it's height is of 3,776.24 m, and it's located in the Honshu island. It's actually a volcano, which erupted for the last time in 1707 and if the day is clear enough it can be seen from Tokyo, which is 100 km far away. Mount Fuji along with Mount Tate and Mount Haku are known as the ''Three Holy Mountains'' of the country. 

UNESCO added Fujisan into the World Heritage List on the 22nd of June of 2013, and the area which is protected by the UNESCO includes, apart from the Mount Fuji, several shrines, two lakes, the Shiraito Falls, and natural volcanic features, like lava tree moulds. 

Although the most of this area is natural, UNESCO tagged Fujisan as cultural heritage site, because this area is considered a sacred place for the japanese culture and such an inspiration for many artists.

I have chosen this place because I have always liked Mount Fuji. It is one of the most famous symbols of Japan, and as Japan is a place that I would love to visit, I think it would be amazing to be able to visit this place and, not only see the mount, also visit the surroundings and the shrines, to learn more about the japanese culture. 

SHAKESPEARE

William Shakespeare was a poet and a playwright, and he is considerate the best writer in English of all times. He was born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon and he died in 1616.

He wrote plays, sonnets and other kind of poems, but he has become famous mostly for his plays. 

At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, and they had three children. He moved to London to work, where in 1599 the Globe Theathre was built, and there some of his plays where first performed. In 1613 it burnt, and in 1997 a reconstruction was built near the original

A reason why maybe Shakspeare's plays are that famous and important even now a days is because they all have a little bit of fantasy. In his plays there are always parties, weddings or funerals.

SOME OF THE SHAKESPEARE'S PLAYS:

The Merchant of Venice: It's the story of a bussiness man who owes money to a money lender. The play shares the idea that everyone finally gets what they deserve.

Hamlet: A man is murdered by another man who then marries his wife, after this, his son, Hamlet wants to take revenge but he's not sure if he'll be able to do it or not. In the play, is about the revenge and how difficult is to take action sometimes.

As you like it: A comedy about romantic love play, where there many jokes, songs, games and of course, love. 

Henry V: A play about a famous king and a battle, in which you can see the preparation for the war, and the results. You can also find questions such like: why do men fight?

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

BE MORE POSITIVE. I want to try to be more positive, to see the bright side of the things and to worry less about stupid little things that aren't worth worring about. 

VISIT NEW PLACES. It doesn't really depend on me, so it's more a wish than a resolution, but I'm gonna try to take advantage of every opportunity that I have to travel.

TRY NEW THINGS. I want to dare to do things that I'm scared of, things that I find difficult to do or, simply, new things. If I get to do that, I think the confidence in myself it's gonna increase.

BE MORE CREATIVE. For example in drawing. I like to draw but a lot of times I don't really have inspiration, so I want to draw more and to increase my creativity.

MY WORLD

BEST MOMENT OF MY CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS

The holidays have been pretty busy for me, basically because of the homework. We had some group projects, so I spent quite a lot of days with friends doing the projects. Apart from this, I also had homework to do by my own. But although I had a lot of work, I spent a good Christmas holidays.

I don't really know which moment was the best, so I'm going to explain some of the things that made my holidays a good holidays. 

The first thing is the typical, to be with the family. In Christmas you always get so spend some time with the family, and that's always good, specially if you don't see some of them very regularly. 
I met with my friends several times to work on the projects, but I also spent some time with them in other occasions. For example, on the 24th of December we went shopping in Figueres, and in the evening we had dinner together or another day that we spent the night together. 
But maybe, one of the best moments of the holidays was in the New Year's Eve. Paula came to my house to have dinner, and after the twelve chimes we went to a party in Sant Pere with some more friends to celebrate the New Year. A lot of people from the high school was there, so we had a really fun night.
