INDONESIA’S LAST ORANGUTANS

Sumatra, Indonesia


Angelo, a 14-year-old male orangutan, lies waiting for medical examination, in the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Program (SOCP) care center in North Sumatra. He was found with air-gun pellets embedded in his body, in a palm-oil plantation. Globally, the demand for palm oil (used in food, cosmetics, and as bio-fuel) is growing rapidly, and Indonesia is a market leader. The loss of their rainforest habitat, largely to make way for palm plantations, has brought orangutans almost to extinction in Indonesia. The SOCP has rescued some 280 orangutans from plantations, poachers and pet-owners, and returned more than 200 to the wild.

Translation: Àngel, es un orangutan mascle de 14 anys d'edat, esta assegut esperant el seu examen mèdic, a Sumatra al Programa de Conservació(SOCP) en el centre d'atenció al Nord de Sumatra. Ell va ser trobat amb boletes de canons d'aire incrustades en el seu cos,  en una plantació d'oli de palma. A nivell mundial, la demanda d'oli de palma( utilitzant menjar, cosmètics, i com bio-combustible) està creixent ràpidament i Indonesia és un líder mercat. La pèrdua del seu hàbitat la selva, en gran part per donar pas a les plantacions de palma, ha portat a els orangutans gairebé a l'extinció a Indonesia. La SOCP ha rescatat alguns 280 orangutans de les plantacions, caçadors furtius i els amos de les mascotes, i retornar a més de 200 a la natura.

A ROMANTIC SONG

      WE ARE NEVER EVER GETTING                    BACK TOGETHER



I remember when we broke up the first timeSaying, "This is it, I've had enough," 'cause like
We hadn't seen each other in a month
When you said you needed space. (What?)
Then you come around again and say
"Baby, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change, trust me."
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say, "I hate you," we break up, you call me, "I love you."

Ooh, we called it off again last night
But ooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you

We are never ever ever getting back together,
We are never ever ever getting back together,
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Like, ever...

I'm really gonna miss you picking fights
And me falling for it screaming that I'm right
And you would hide away and find your peace of mind
With some indie record that's much cooler than mine

Ooh, you called me up again tonight
But ooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you

We are never, ever, ever getting back together
We are never, ever, ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me (talk to me)
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Ooh, yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Oh oh oh

I used to think that we were forever ever
And I used to say, "Never say never..."
Uggg... so he calls me up and he's like, "I still love you,"
And I'm like... "I just... I mean this is exhausting, you know, like,
We are never getting back together. Like, ever"

No!

We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

We, ooh, getting back together, ohhh,
We, ooh, getting back together

You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me (talk to me)
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

 TRANSLATION:

Recuerdo la primera vez, que rompimos,
Hasta aquí llegamos, ya tuve suficiente, es como,
No nos hemos visto en un mes,
Cuando dijiste que necesitabas espacio, ¿qué?
Entonces vuelves y dices,
'Cariño, te extraño y te juro que voy a cambiar',
'Créeme', recuerdo cuanto duró aquél día,
Digo; 'te odio', rompemos, me llamas, te amo.

Ooh, lo pospusimos de nuevo anoche,
Pero, Ooh, esta vez te digo, te digo,
Nosotros nunca jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos,
Nosotros nunca jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos,
Ve y conversa con tus amigos, conversa con mis amigas, conversa conmigo,
Pero nosotros nunca jamás jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos,
Como siempre...

En serio voy a extrañarte originando peleas,
Y a mí, tratando de tomar la palabra para gritar que tengo la razón,
Y tú, te esconderás y encontrarás una pieza de las mias con un disco indie que sea más cool que el mio.

Ooh, volviste a llamarme esta noche,
Pero, Ooh, esta vez, te digo, te digo,
Adictivoz.com Adictivoz.com
Nosotros nunca jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos,
Nosotros nunca jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos,
Ve y conversa con tus amigos, conversa con mis amigas, conversa conmigo,
Pero nosotros nunca jamás jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos.

Solía pensar que duraríamos por siempre y para siempre,
Y solía decir; 'nunca digas nunca',
Huh, él me llama y actua como si me amase,
Y yo como si, quiero decir, esto es agotador, ya sabes,
Nosotros nunca jamás volveremos a estar juntos, como siempre, no!

Nosotros nunca jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos,
Nosotros nunca jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos,
Ve y conversa con tus amigos, conversa con mis amigas, conversa conmigo,
Pero nosotros nunca jamás jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos.

(No volveremos a estar juntos,
Nosotros, oh, no volveremos a estar juntos)

Ve y conversa con tus amigos, conversa con mis amigas, que conversen conmigo,
Pero nosotros nunca jamás jamás jamás volveremos a estar juntos.

MY FAVOURITE SPORT


My favourite sport is basketball. I have played this sport since I was five years old. Now I am fifteen years old and I play in the Esplais team. We train twice a week, every Wednesday and Friday, and every weekend we have a match, on Saturday or Sunday. One week we play at home and another week we play away.

My trainer is Bernat, a french coach. I like playing basketball a lot but I don't like watching it very much on TV. Two years ago my team were sub-champions of Girona, and we went to Girona to recive the prize.

MY WORLD

MY CARNIVAL 

This year in Carnival, I disguised of Snow Withe with my friends. We did not know how much will it cost, however, finally, we decided to buy that disguise. We were not going to be part of a big group, because last year we had many problemes with the people who were with us. 
First we went to the Carnival of Sant Pere Pescador, where we could see many people with original costumes like diving, oreo cookie ... For a small town there were many people. We wanted to see all the Carnival so we slept at a friend's house. So we could enjoy all the Carnival night.

Also we went to the Carnival of our town, Castelló d'Empúries, what was the following week. We went every day, friday in Empuriabrava and saturday in Castelló. We observed that there were many many people on Saturday night, because it was in Castelló. However, it is true that this year there was less Carnival floats than the last year, and I don't know why. Even so, this year was one of the best Carnivals I've spent together with my friends.

THE BEST DAY


Last year, in my birthday with my mother and my sister came to Barcelona. We visited my grandmother. My grandmother fought the metro and my mother and my sister laughted. The lunch  was perfect and cheaped. My mother gave me a new mobile phone and my grandmother gave me money. It was one of the best moments in my life.

LAST NIGHT...

Last night, I went to a horrible house. The house was not normal. I went into the house. I saw a terrible and ugly ghost and I began to run away. I didn't found the door and I was really scared. I caught my mobile phone shaking and I called my mother. My mother said to me she will take quickly the car to come to the house and take me home. However, I had to wait for it semeed a long time. I was really scared. After, I saw a car lights, and I knew my mother finally arrived. I ran quickly to the car shouting, 'Take me home now! Quickly!'. That day was horrible for me.

MY WORLD

MY FAVOURITE ACTOR

John Christopher Depp, well known as Johnny Depp, is my favourite actor. He is an American actor, he was born in Owensboro, Kentucky, in June 9 1963. Because of his father they have to move far from home, until his parents divorced. Films featuring Depp have grossed over $2.6 billion at the United States box office and over $6 billion worldwide. He moved to Los Angeles where he met Nicolas Cage, and Tim Barton who helped him take off his career. He has won the Golden Globe Award and Screen Actors Guild award for Best Actor.

Johnny Depp is my favourite actor for his ability to act and represent characters as difficult as Sweeney Todd, Willy Wonka, Paul Kemp, Jack Sparrow ... I like a lot his performance as Jack Sparrow because I think it is difficult to act like a pirate and with special effects, specially in the first film. 
In my opinion is one of the best actors of the actual Hollywood cinema. I think that nowdays there are a few actors that every director wants to have in their film, and Johnny Depp is one of these actors. However, he makes me sad know that it he has had to withdraw to recover from his alchol addicion.
