Mobile phone

Did you know that there are over 5 billion phones in the world; mobile are more commonly used in our work to communicate with other people, to carry out difficult or repetitive tasks. However, people do not always agree on whether using phones is a good thing.
There are a number of benefits to using phones. Mobile use increases efficiency so you don’t have to go out to pay your bills but you can do it online and factories are able to promote new electronics faster and easier. Moreover, the number of employees needed to do a task is reduced. Therefore profits increase for the company.
However, the use of phones has its drawbacks. For one thing, phones tend to be quite expensive to buy and maintain. As a result, large financial investments are required. In addition, the use of mobile phones means that there are fewer obligations for a person.
To conclude, although there are disadvantages to using phones, I believe that the benefits far outweigh them. Technology is an important part of our world today and if we use it wisely, our daily lives will be easier and less stressful.

The value of friendships

Friendship is essential for the successful wellbeing of every person. It is based on the simple rules of trust and honesty.
A true friend is a person you can always count on when you have challenges and serious problems. He always offers a shoulder to cry on in case something wrong happens. Your soulmate always listens to your problems, gives you good advices and NEVER talks behind your back. This person keeps you all the secrets. You can always tell your trusted friend your flaws and be sure that your revelations are safe. Being trustworthy is a very important factor in any relationship.
A true friend is there for you every time, he makes you smile when you forgot how to and never lets you down. Generally, he lifts you up when you can’t lift up yourself.
Apart from being there for you, it is about doing things together. Friendship is being able to cry together or bring foolish together. It is being mad at each other. True friends are always ready to protect each other from being hurt.
It takes time and patience to build a strong relationship and achieve trust between two soulmates It is very important to have somebody you can share your thoughts freely.
To conclude a good friendship is very difficult to come across, and longtime ti create feelings to each other. But when they created there are a lot of benefits, like: a happily life, unique experiences and the most essential. They give us total freedom to be who we really are. We should be grateful to people who made us happy. A true friend is one of the most precious things that someone can have in his life.

Friendship

Friendship.One word but so many meanings instead. They say that family is a very essential piece of our lives, and I am sure you are thinking about why I wrote family and not friends because actually a true friend is included in your family.
In the first place, it’s easy to say that you find a true friend but in reality, is very hard to find one and also to keep him close to your side. Now, if you think that you have found a true friend the sovereign thing in this “ship” is, firstly, honestly. You can always tell the truth to this person even if it’s the most hurtful thing for him without being aware of it.
Secondly, another important thing is trust. All of us have that one or two friends that every single thing about our lives because we are open to them and we know that they will keep our secret in “a safe place”.
The third thing is sharing interests. I am sure that most of us have that one friend that they will have an interest in the same hobby or in a movies/series that they will always talk about.
Last but not least, your true friend makes you be a better person. He/she always there when you have done something tragically bad or he/she catches you up and make you take the right decision.
We always have to be very grateful about the people we have in our lives and makes her even better than it was before we met them and also we have to be very careful about who we are choosing to be a part of our lives because what we think is not always the right decision.

My favourite actor – Jonny Depp

He is an American, very popular actor. He stars in many famous movies of Holywood.
I like him very much. I like the movies he plays in. His roles always use makeup and costumes, so in every movie, he looks different. Sometimes is difficult to recognize him. I have seen him as Scissorhands also as Willy Wonka in the movie Charlie and the chocolate factory. He looks strange wearing that wig and a hight hat. In the movie Alis in Wonderland, he has the role of Mad Hatter and he looks crazy with that red hair and theatrical makeup. He is dressed as an Indian, a vampire or as a wolf in other films but my favourite disguise is as the pirate Jack Sparrow. Actually, this is my favourite role of Johnny Depp. He gives his voice to some animated films as Rango and the corpse bride.
I have watched most of his movies and I liked them all.

The last two weeks

The last two weeks schools are closed because of the pandemic of coronavirus. We have to stay home to protect ourselves. Now I have much free time to relax and do things I like, as reading comics, drawing, playing video games and watching movies. When the weather is good I ride my bike in the back yard of the house where we can play with my brother and my sister in safety. My sister practices her roller skates and my brother plays with the dog. Of course, I do my homework daily and I spend time writing some blogs for my English lessons. I’m not bored at all, because I find interesting things to pass the time. But the truth is that I miss my friends very much. I’m looking forward to meeting them again.

COVID-19

Corona virus or covid-19 is a virus first begun in China last December. It caused illness, even death to thousands of peoples. It appears with symptoms like fever, cough, runny nose and difficulty in breathing. Most of the people with covid-19 have to stay in hospitals, but many people stay at home until they get well. Unfortunately, a lot of people are in bad condition and many of them have died. The best way to protect ourselves is to wash our hands with soap and water very often. We have to avoid to touch our face, eyes, nose and mouth or to eat with unwashed hands. We cough or sneeze with a tissue and then throw it immediately. We must stay at home when we are sick and avoid meeting other people, especially babies and old people. We don’t go to theaters, cinemas, churches, restaurants. All the schools are closed and after school activities are cancelled we have to use a face mask. We must avoid travelling and we have to stay at home. If you have a fever or other symptoms you have to call your doctor first and don’t go immediately to the hospital because other people can get sick because of you.
We have to be very careful because corona virus is dangerous.

MY NEW JBL SPEAKER

A few days ago I took a new Bluetooth speaker the JBL flip 5. I like it because is very loud and has very good sound quality, has a very large battery life and I can use it for a lot of hours. It is waterproof and I can take it in a lot of school activities. I use it in a lot of thinks when I ride my bike when I draw when I go outside with my friends. But the best thing is the party boost mode. With this mode can connect up two other speakers to listen louder like a party. I think is the best choice and I like it very much.
