DOES HUMOUR PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN LIFE?

Humour is a very important thing in life. Humour makes you laugh even when you're angry, sad or tired. Laughing is good because it makes you feel good and relaxed.

In my opinion, not all humour types are funny but I like some of them, like Dark humour. Humour plays a very important role in life nowadays because everyone gets sad or bored some days and humour is definitely a great solution. Everyone can enjoy humour because it is free. It connects you to other people because laughter is very contagious.

Humour is not essential in life, but it is sometimes very important to feel good and stay in a good mood.

Boxing in a hijab

A 16-year-old Muslim girl has become the first person in America ever to wear a hijab during a competitive boxing match. She ended up losing the match but later said that it was about much more.
She felt that she had a purpose in fighting for what she believes – that all girls should have a chance. She now has her sights on changing the international rules as well, so that she can compete at the Olympics in 2020 in her chosen attire.
The teenager hopes that others will be inspired by her story and keep fighting for what they believe in.

I think that this girl has been very brave because she hasn't been afraid of what people could think or say about her.
Words learned: attire.

Bomb in Baghdad

A car bomb exploded outside a popular ice cream shop in Baghdad. The place was full of people at the time of the explosion. Thirteen people died and 30 more were injured.
The attack took place at midnight when some Muslims break fasting during Ramadan. The Islamic State Group, which sees Iraq’s Shia Muslims as heretics, claimed responsibility for the attack.

The islamic state group kills a lot of people every week in Baghdad, but the think I don't like is that the tv news in Europe don't show this, they only inform about white people things and that's bad because Baghdad people are humans as european people.

Words learned: Fasting, heretic and claim responsability.

Tiger kills zookeeper

A tiger patrolling a perimeter in a zoo in England killed a zookeeper when it entered an enclosure with her. The zoo described it as a ‘freak incident’ and offered its sympathy to family and friends.
People evacuated visitors to the zoo and called an air ambulance to the emergency. Police assured the public that they are safe and that no animals escaped, and an investigation has begun to establish more detail about the tragic incident.
I feel sorry for the zookeeper but tigers are wild animals and I think that zookeepers never have to get into their zone because it's very dangerous.
Words learned: enclosure and freak.

Fight on a plane

At Burbank, California, passengers were leaving from a plane when a fight broke out between two men. Someone recorded it with a mobile phone as other passengers and crew members tried to stop the brawl. Afterwards, police arrested one of the men.
Southwest Airlines reported that its flight crews have training on how to de-escalate conflicts. The airline did not say what started the fight.
I think that it's a good idea that the flight crews learn how to stop a fight because a fight on a plane can be very dangerous.
Words learned: Brawl and de-escalate.

Mesut Özil

Mesut Özil is a German footballer who plays for the english club Arsenal and the German national team. He was born on the 15th October of 1988 in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. He gained international attention during the FIFA World Cup in 2010 and was nominated for the Golden Ball Award. He signed for Real Madrid in 2010 and there he showed to the world that he was one of the best attacking midfielders. He is acclaimed for finesse and improvisation as an attacking midfielder. His style and ability for providing assists to his teammates makes him one of the best football players. Several Real Madrid players were dissatisfied when he left the club, including Cristiano Ronaldo because he said that Özil was the player who best knew his moves in front of goal, that's why he got angry when Özil left the club and joined Arsenal. I like his style of playing football because he is very clever and he has got a lot of agility with his legs and he has got a lot of skills.

Future

Future is an american rapper, songwriter, singer and record producer. His real name is Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn and he was born on the 20th of november of 1983 in Atlanta Georgia. I like his songs because of his voice. He uses Auto-Tune in his songs, boyh rapping and singing and he says that it makes his songs more interesting and I agree with him because he is the only rapper with that kind of voice. There are some famous rappers who use the same audio processor that criticize him and in my opinión they do it because they envy him. Future has four children with four different women. He has 5 mixtapes: "Monster", "Beast Mode", "56 Nights", "What a time to be alive" featuring Drake and "Purple Reign". In my opinion he actually is one of the best rappers. My favourite Future song is "Mask off".

Lil Yachty

Lil Yachty is a famous rapper and singer. He was born on the 23rd of August of 1997. His real name is Miles Parks McCollum and he wasn't famous a few years ago, but he gained recognation when he dropped two nice singles called "Minnesota" and "One night". I really like his songs because his music is different because the other rappers usually use the same type of beats but Yachty's songs are different and that's why I like him. He calls his music style "bubblegum trap" because his songs has sampled sounds from Mario Bross, Charlie Brown, Clouds, the Super Nintendo and more sounds that make his music very nice and different. He has just dropped a new album called "Teenage emotions" and it looks very good. He isn't my favourite singer but I listen to his songs everyday. I started to listen to his music last year because a friend told me that he wasa good rapper and I didn't know who was him so when I arrived at home I listened his songs on YouTube and I liked them. I think that in a few years he will be one of the bests rappers and that we will win a lot of awards.

It's about a girl called Danit Paleg who likes dresses. She was travelling with one suitcase of clothes and she was invited to an important event, so she looked into her suitcase for a special dress but she didn't find it, but she went to a technology conference that day and she had an access to 3D printers so she quickly designed a skirt in her computer and she printed it. One summer whe went to New York for an internship and she made two incredible 3D printed dresses. Now she designs different dresses and she prints them at home.

Paul Pogba.

Paul Pogba is one of my favourite football players. He is french and he is actually playing for Manchester United. When I was younger i didn't know who was him because he wasn't famous yet because he is a young player and he didn't show to the world his talent yet. He is very tall and strong and I like how he plays because he plays with a lot of calm and he scores too. I would like that he one they could play in Barcelona because it's my favourite team and Pogba would do good if he was here.
I like him too because he is very funny and he uploads funny videos to Instagram. He is known for having awesome haircuts every season and this is one thing that make him special and different.

my favourite school day.

I don't like going to school because I have to get up very early and I hate that. My favourite school day is monday because I have P.E, history and two hours of economy and these subjects are my favourite ones because I enjoy them. The only subject that I don't like on monday is maths because I hate maths and i always used to hate them. I would like to do P.E in the last hour of school because it's much better than doing it at first hour because it's very cold and I'm asleep. My second favourite day of the week is wednesday because it is a calm day too. In my opinion the worst school day of the week is thursday because I have spanish, catalan and maths and it is very boring.

Playstation 4

I play the ps4 almost everyday. I like it very much because when I'm bored I just go to my room and switch it on and there I play hours and talk on the microphone with my friends. I bought it last year in October and since then I play almost everyday. When I come home from school I first have lunch because I'm always very hungry after coming school and then I play with my friends for hours if  I don't have a lot of homework. Playing the ps4 is the best thing I can do when I'm bored at home. The only thing I don't like is that the games are very expensive when the company start to send them because they are new and everybody wants to get it, but I always wait a few months and buy it because then the price is much lower than it was before.

Real Hoverbike is here.

Russian engineers created a hoverbike. You can ride it like a normal bike, fly up to 48 kilometres per hour, and go up to 10 metres.
The machine is called Scorpion-3, and it can stay in the air for 30 minutes on one charge. It can be yours for around $150,000.

I would like to have this machine because i would like to fly with it but the only problem is that I think that 30 minutes on one charge are not enough. the other problem is that it is very expensive.

Race across lake baikal

Lake Baikal is located in Siberia in Russia and it is the deepest lake in the world. Every year, there is a three-day race across it, which attracts people from all over the world. Participants use skis, ice skates or bikes.
The route is 205 kilometres long, and the organiser said that people should travel at least 80 kilometres a day. Temperatures dropped to –20°C and only two thirds of the competitors finished the course. Locals won the bike and ice skating races.

In my opinion this competition is nice because it might be funny to race on the lake but the only thing that i don't like about this is that in Siberia it's very cold and i really hate cold weather.

Family in a plane crash

A small plane, which was carrying a family of five, crashed in Southern California. The crash happened just moments after the take-off. It hit two houses and started a fire.
The local fire brigade found four bodies. One member of the family, a teenage girl, survived. She flew out of the plane on impact. She was not seriously injured and is now in hospital.

I think that the girl who survived has been very lucky but she lost her family.
