THESIS STATEMENT

THESIS STATEMENT: Being sitting in the sofa is easier than doing sport, but at least it helps you train your body and you can have less stress.


THESIS STATEMENT INTEGRATED IN A PARAGRAPH: Being sitting in the sofa is easier than doing sport, but at least it helps you train your body and you can have less stress. In our society there two prototypes of people: those who can't live without sport, they need swimming, dancing, playing football; but people who don't do anything also exist, they only want to eat fast food and watch the TV. It is a hard classification, from my point of view we need to do sport because it is really good to our health, but we have to know where our limit is, we should have days of relaxation and we also should eat healthy food.




FEAR IS OPTIONAL

The older we are, the more fears we have. I've arrived at this conclusion remembering my chilhood, when I was a child I did things without thinking in their impact: I talked to each other in a free way, I didn't care about what they opined. However, nowadays I am careful with my words and my actions because I am more conscious and I have empathy, therefore I have many more fears...

Fear of the death of someone I love
Fear of being alone
Fear of failing
Fear of spiders
Fear of fear

After doing this redaction I ask myself: Am I growing up or am I falling back?
I think I will follow an advice that I've read somewhere: feel the fear and do it anyway.

Friendship never ends

When we are younger we give a lot of importance to friendship, children love playing football or playing with their dolls and they want to do it with their friends. However, when you grow up you desire to have more independence, a lot of adolescents think that their parents have never been teenagers and therefore they don't understand their children's situation; however your friends are still there, living the same things that you are living. When you have your first crush your companions stand by you, making you smile. Friendship never ends because your mates are the family that you choose.The time flies, too many people enter into your live every year, meanwhile others are leaving it, but always there will be  someone with you... you must decide who.

'Earth' without 'art' is just 'eh'

As you can see in the title, today I'm going to talk about art. Almost everybody make a mistake thinking that only things like music, pictures, dance, sculpture o cinema are art. I disagree with them; when you are able to say sorry that's art, when you are asleep but you get up from the bed because you have just had a great idea and you need to write it then you are making art, a good draw while you are thinking in a totally different issue, a hug at the right moment or a beautiful letter...all theses details are art because it is anything that removes your stomach.

Murderers and victims

From my point of view a conversation in a pub could be very inspiriting. In fact I've just had one with a group of criminology students and I desire to tell you what they have said me.
First of all, they have explained me that there are different types of murderers and victims. Normally murderers have suffered some bad experience in their childhood, they do whatever they saw in their house: if their fathers beat their mothers then theses boys will beat their handcuffs.
Long time ago, police thought that ugly people or citizens with tattoos were criminals, only because of their appearance. Something really stupid. Studies say that there two principal types of murderess: those who have a normal life with their family but they have a second face; or solitary people that have a perfect prototype of person and they try to kill him/her.
Furthermore, there are two general types of victims: guilty people and innocent people. A guilty victim probably sound strange, I will give you an example: if you plan a bank robbery and you die during it, then you are a victim but you are guilty too. The other kind of victim is the innocent person who is killed and he or she hasn't any fault.
To conclude: even if you are studying another degree you should listen other stories and facts because knowledge don't take place.

Malala Yousafzai.

Tonight I want to talk about Malala Yousafzai ,a girl who didn't care what people from her country could think about her. She is from Pakistan where women haven't got any rights, they are undervalued. However Malala decided to study to become a person with capacity despite Pakistani men tried to put her off. 
I will show you a video where we can see a Malala's discourse; she tells us that she is a human and, like this, she deserves a opportunity to be whatever she wants: a teacher, a nurse or a philosopher. From my point of view, people should listen her words because it teaches us the meaning of the effort. Actually, a lot of girls are always fighting to achieve freedom since most of the people from these poorly developed countries want to stop them, it seems that women haven't eyes and voice; and men from Pakistan still think that they possess the entire world and losing this power is something that scares them.
This marvelous girl could silence most of the world with her story of bravery and overcoming. She is a clever girl who took the decision of be against anyone that was in her way. People, specially women, should follow her example. It's time to change this situation.

'We realize the importance of our voices only when we are silenced' Malala.

Be careful how you see the world...it is that way


Sometimes you are on the top of the world. Your exams are good, you are confortable in your job, your friends make you happy, you have the perfect family that makes you laugh like a kid, they are perfect maybe a little bit crazy...but perfect anyway. And then...something happens, and all of this fall down. Why? What have happened? My life was as I wanted to it would be. A person? All of us have this person who breaks all our plans when he/she wants; and I say myself: you are an independent girl and you have a lot of people who love you. Your life doesn' t depend on one person. Maybe...a broken dream? Sometimes we put too much hopes in something but we don't achieve it. Nobody is perfect. I still haven't find the reason of my change of mood. However, I have a intuition...humans have feelings, a lot of this...and the feeling which has caused my change of mood is the disappointment ...oh my god! A movie can disappoint you, a book can do it too, even a friend, a teacher, an exam, a t-shirt which looks nice but actually is very unconfortable, or when you realise that you aren't good doing what you love. I think I'm very close of my objetive...the worst disappointment is when you disappoint yourself. When you look at the mirror and you see a different person with a completely different behavior...only to seem "ordinary" only to...fit in a group? STOP. It's something really stupid, nobody should change you because you are marvelous just the way you are. If you like write then you must write, if you like eat then you must eat, if you like dance then you have to dance, if you like sing then you should sing, every moment, every second...don't care what people can think about you! And it is because you were born with a big talent that can't be wasted. Catch the option that life brings you! Listen to your heart! What is it saying? It is saying that if you think that you can...then you CAN. Believe in yourself.
