***Obama President***

Democratic Senator Barack Obama has been elected the first black president of the United States, prompting celebrations across the country.

"It's been a long time coming, but tonight... change has come to America," the president-elect told a jubilant crowd at a victory rally in Chicago.

His rival John McCain accepted defeat, and called on his supporters to lend the next president their goodwill.

He says the American people have made two fundamental statements about themselves: that they are profoundly unhappy with the status quo, and that they are slamming the door on the country's racial past.

***Discussion essay***


Computer have made the world a better place?

The computers are an invention which has completely cheanged the world. As it has changed the functioning of the world. The structure of societies has adapted itself with this piece of technology in spite of being such a wonderful invention we can't say with earlain by that through computer the world is a better place.

On the one hand, the computer has helped with the devolupment of science, technology and also has helped to make some jobs easier and consequently jobs have been easier to organize.

On the other hand, has created some negative factors. For example in addition the computer has coured unemployment as what a job was done by many people at presont there people are replaced by a machine. Another reason it causes addictions, what is more it causes people that send such things as e-mails or sms's tend to use a computer language which in the end causes writing with bad spelling. Moreover through messenger or chat one can meet crazy people who are only there to get into your privacy and try to blackmail you. Once you get intouch with fuch people one never knows what can happen.

In conclusion despite the fact that the computer has done marvel for the world, there is a dark side which means that isn't all positive, and like many other new technology it has its advantages and disadvantages.

***Opinion essay***


Is humour necessary to survive?

I think humour is very important in live. If you have no humour then your life is very miserable. Good humour helps you to go through life more pleasantly. Even when you have problems and stress, if you keep your humour high help you to so through your worries better.
I believe there are two kinds of humour:

- There is the funny humour which you normally share with your friends and what I call good sense of humour that helps you spend good times with them.
-Then we have the what is know black humour which is more sarcastic and doesn't usually make people laugh, in other words not very pleasent.

I find that people who have a good sense of humour are people who everybody liks and are very popular. The majority of people love being whith them because they have are so happy. Not so popular are the ones which are have black humour because even though they try to be funny aren't always succesful.

Finally through what I said before, we ca conclude that, without a very good ense of humour it's very difficuld to survive, because without it we would be very miserable.

***Univeras Prayer***

Tiziano Ferro & Jamelia - Universal Prayer
This song is by Tiziano Ferro and Jamelia. It's called Universal Prayer. It's a very beautiful song. I like this tune very much because I think the lyrics are very deep and the melody is very catchy. I believe that the lyrics can be interpreted in two ways:
-On one hand you could interpret the song as a love song, because is talking about missing someone who is far a way and thinking about them while in the distance. Also it says that you must have faith and hoe.
-On the other hand you could interpret as says prayer to keep you
going against all the obstacles that we are facing in every days life. As well the words tell us to always to stay to gether an in that way we can fight all the problems in the world. And although I have dreams which I find difficuld to understan the world the prayer helps we to go on.

I’m just the same as you
I could be the same age too
Do the same music you do
Everyday.

No matter what separates us
The same stars we see at night
No matter what’s up against us S
till gonna have dream burning right.

I believe we fear what we don't know,
we can be our own enemy
But if we concord and
If you took my hand
I see a girl you see a man .

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they want
Open your eyes we’re all the same
We won’t be scared
So let’s sing together now
Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

Oh oh … na na na na

I see the smoking light
That complicates a simple life
I’m here and you are there
Miles away

All you gotta do is believe
That anything you want you can reach
There’s no limit to what we could be
So open your mind
And set yourself free

I believe we fear what we don't know,
we can be our own enemy
But if we concord and
If you took my hand
I see a girl you see a man

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they want
Open your eyes we’re all the same
We won’t be scared
So let’s sing together now, Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

And in this dream I have at night
That I don’t understand the world at all
You might be right but it seems to me
That we’ve come to fight too far

Cause I believe that fears
I try to save our souls
And hardest time will come
And all this pain will go
So try to understand
The precious things I’ve said
Every woman every man

Oh oh … na na na na

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they want
Open your eyes we’re all the same
We won’t be scared
So let’s sing together now Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they want
Open your eyes we’re all the same
We won’t be scared
So let’s sing together now, Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

Oh oh … na na na na
