MY MAD FAT DIARY

First of all, we are going to explain about a sitcom called My mad fat diary.

My mad fat diary is a British sitcom based on a real diary written by Rae Earl. It was directed by Tim Kirkby and Benjamin Caron and first broadcasted in 2013 on E4. The second series started in 2014 and the third and short one in 2015.

The plot is situated in Lincolnshire, Britain in the mid-90s. The serie explains the story of a teenager who is Rachel Earl. She 16 years old and weights one-hundred and five kilos. In fact, she has just left a psychiatric hospital where she has spent four months and has to learn to life in the real world.

Along the serie, she deals with her mental illness and insecurity. She was on a psychiatric because she tried suicide so she is afraid of what her friends would say.

Despite that fact, her friends support and encourage her to keep going and enjoy her life.

Throughout the broadcast of the serie, My mad fat diary received many critics, especially for its accurate scenario. It was called a lovely drama painful real and funny sitcom. In addition, it has achieved more or less 300.000 views on the first and the second chapter and 400.000 views.

Finally we want to say it is worth to watch this sitcom due to the real situations showed.

BULLFIGHTING

In Spain Bullfighting is a well-known tradition around the world. Despite this fact, many people are against these horrible shows. We think Bullfighting is a bad way to torture animal beings.

First of all, according to the Spanish law animal abuse is illegal. Nevertheless Bullfighters take advantage of the fringe of law to benefit themselves. In addition, we agree it's not ethical,  people shouldn't kill animals for fun, but they should do it for necessity.

To sum up, if the tradition is wrong, the government should eradicate it.

FOR AND AGAINST. IS INDEPENDENCE GOOD FOR CATALONIA?

Nowadays, Catalan people has to choose a president for Catalonia which also means to decide to want independence or not. As many things in life, there are advantages and disadvantages.

On the one hand, one advantage is that the money produced by Catalonia not only wouldn't go to Madrid but all of it would also stay in Catalonia. Furthermore, Catalan culture wouldn't have a risk to be eradicated by Spanish government.

On the other hand, although the money would stay in Catalonia, the economy would be affected by enterprises which would leave the country. Another important disadvantage is the social tension that could appear between Spanish and Catalan people.

In my opinion, it is really difficult to know what could happen and I think I don't have enought knowledge to decide.

The worst day of my life

My worst nightmare happened about five months ago.
I was spending my summer holidays in a little town on the coast of Portugal with my family.
All started when I was laying on the sofa alone, my parents had decided to go for shopping.
I was bored and I went to spend some time sunbathing, but sudenly, the floor started to shake. It was an earthquake! I couldn't imagine what was happening!
Then, a huge wave appeared on the horixon. Though I was shocked, I started to run to search a safe place.
I finally found an enormous hotel. In spite of being terrrified, I was able to speak with the people hidden there. We went to the roof to be safe.
In short, I'm a very lucky girl. The wave didn't rag me, but it hurt a lot of people who are hurt, alive or even dead.

E-mail

Dear William,

How are you? I'm writing to tell you that a new student has come to my school. Her name is Alice. It seems to be a wonderful person. She is the most pleasant person I've ever met. She is as tall as me and plumb. However, she is very beautiful. She has got curly, long, brown hair and her eyes are light green. She also wears glasses and a lot of piercings.

In addition, she always puts a smile on her face and has got a great sense of humor. She is, without doubt, an easy-going person.

I think we are going to become very close friends. What about you? Have you met someone new recently?

Well, I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

With love,

Irene.
