The English teacher

These are Diana Martins's *Thousand Words*

Thousand Words

In deep waters
Ruled by the law of ages
Held by teachings and pages
They had sunken you in a sea of matters
With soul almost lost

Like the dust in the sand
Like the rocks on the ground
Find your home
Spread your wings
And glow in the sky
Fly…

Through cliffs and mountains
Through the darkness emptiness
I travelled blindly
Following my instincts
And you smell
That sea fragrance
That I still feel
When I remember our memories

I woke up in the middle of the night
by hope, pain and ties confused
Searching for a light
To vanish my regrets
I exchanged you for my duty
And what’s left of me now?

We promised to protect each other
We promised to be always there
You promised to save me
And show me a wonderland
But I didn’t promise to love you forever
Give me your hand
It’s now or never

We cried and laughed
But you didn’t hear some words
From my mouth
Through so many worlds
I want you to know
Even if you are already gone
These thousand words
So many times tied up in my heart
Oh! Now we both forgot our home
And I’m left here to bear this painful happiness alone…

Hello everyone!
The lines you read up above were written for you to think about them.
They tell a story of an “I” that lost “his”/"her” lover (who is suffering)
because “He”/”she” didn’t have the courage to say what was in “her”/”his” mind.
Now, “she”/”he” is suffering too.
This is our story sometimes.

There are often times we don’t open our heart,
and those things we should have said turn into something heavy in the future.

So remember, let your heart guide you…you’ll change into a more
spontaneous person , and if you ever regret about something, don’t do it
because it was what your will led you to…

Comment and give your opinions.

You can’t change the world on your own,

but

you can turn it into a better place every day.

I hope you got the message, and try to be happy! *

"this is to post in the blog...." That's what Pedro wanted the E.T. to do with the text underneath

A blog is a very modern and interesting way of communication.

In a blog
we can express our ideas and opinions; we can show photos and pictures
that reveal our feelings and experiences.

From my point of view our class blog can be a very useful means of class communication.

We can publish our projects works,

our compositions and
our homework!

Have a very

Class work on Ecotourism

What the students of the two classgroups - 11º A and 11º B - did on Ecotourism is to be seen at school!

Such interesting leaflets couldn't be hidden from the public eye!

Here are the pictures of the little exhibition that is worth at least a glance.

Because of today's test ...

My dear Teased1s!

I know you studied hard...

I know you were expecting this test to be ... let's say ... more up to your expectations ...

... but ....

oh well!...

Let's wait for Thursday for me to make up my mind!
Tiago Faia couldn't really go on.

Now ... don't think I will forget the others.

As I said he'll repeat the test on Wednesday.
There will surely be another chance for you too.
At least for those who did as much as Tiago did or even worse and I didn't get aware they were as disturbed as he was!
You know I keep up to my promises so ... wait till Thursday to know what will happen on the coming Monday!

3 DOORS DOWN

"Away from the sun"

music lyrics:

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
Can anyone tell what I've done
I miss the life
I miss the colors of the world
Can anyone tell where I am

Cause now again I've found myself so far down
Away from the sun that shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down away from the sun again
Away from the sun again

I'm over this
I'm tired of livin' in the dark
Can anyone see me down here
The feeling's gone
There's nothing left to lift me up
Back into the world I know

And now again I've found myself so far down
Away from the sun that shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down away from the sun
That shines to light the way for me to find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down away from the sun again

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
And now I can't tell what I've done

And now again I've found myself so far down
Away from the sun that shines to light the way for me
And now again I've found myself so far down
Away from the sun that shines into the darkest place

I'm so far down away from the sun
That shines to light the way for me to find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down away from the sun again


"Sometimes we feel really down. Either for making a mistake, or for hurting a
person we like very much, or for losing somebody that was
important for us.
During our life, we go through many situations like this.

This music
represents one of these situations.

When the author of this music wrote it,

he seemed to be angry at himself.

The music says he is very down, away from the sun, away from life.
He says he needs to have his life making sense and he can't say what he has done. But he has eventually found himself so far down, away from the sun.


The picture I chose symbolizes the sun distance, the sun
that shines into the darkest place.

I like this song very much , but I have my critical opinion.

The name of music shoudn't be "away from the sun", but "the way
to the sun"!

We can't allow ourselves to be dominated by sadness.

We should try to find the way to overcome this sadness

and

live life as it should be lived,

see the colors of the world,

receive the positive power of the sunshine,

see the rain as a revitalising life source,

receive the harmonising power of plants,

the calming sea-breeze

and always heading

towards

the Sun,

towards

the Light".

Tiago Faia sent me this text on a song he chose himself .

He did what I expected him to do and I think he deserves an applause for this work,

which I marked and decided to post here.

With it the blog is eventually reopened.

And now let's hope it'll be there till the end of the current school-year.

I'm VERY PROUD of this young man.
