Evaluation of the last weekkk+ new targets

Last week I have achieved pretty much what I wanted to do.

I read the 2nd chapter of the book history and I revised the first one.

Finally I have also found the time for researching the definition of democracy.

I have started collecting material for the Europeam Invetigation, finding really useful material about Switzerland's geography and history.

I have ordered and revised my spanish notes and sheets.

I'm finding myself a bit more faster towards studies: what it took me 1hour before is now achievable in 40 minutes.

I didn't have time to prepare the Literature essay but I'll try to get it ready for next week.

Again I feel I don't have enough time to dedicate at my studies ,although I am actually very busy on them. I going to move closer to the centre so I will surely have more free time to spend on my duties.



New Targets:

First of all I am going to get the Literature homework ready for tomorrow, although I have to be prepared for the Spanish assessment. So I will held me back at college until I finish those...

Moreover, within the end of the week I will start working on the history essay, reading the sheets provided and if not enough to prepare an essay, research on the internet.

Then I will move on the Communication essay in order to find the topic for the "fact based" one.

Evaluation for last week goals and Targets for the week

Last week I managed to get the communication essay ready , revising Maths and catch up with the Spanish homework, but I haven't been able to complete History tasks and the Spanish revision. That was due to my forced short trip to Italy where I was really lazy.
In conclusion I am sure I am not going there during college days anymore.


This week I am going to catch up with History (finding the democracy definition and reading the chapter 2), but I will also revise the whole Spanish notebook.
Moreover I will try to get the Literature essay ready within the end of this week.
Besides, I want to start collecting material for th European Investigation due in December.

lesson resume

Today, I have started to learn espanol reading a bit of an article from a spanish newspaper, EL PAIS.
It was quite complicated so it took me a while to read it all. After reading the piece I have written down most of the words I didn't know on my notebook and on a Word Document.
After that I tried to do some listening, so I went on YOUTUBE and I watched a flamenco video.
Well, don't do it, because I haven't been able to understand a single word.
Then, on the same Word Document i copied the verbs SER & TENER.

THAT'S IT!
ADIOS!!!

You know, I am working just on tuesday so i ll try to keep me ahead with homework when i won't have enough time for.

First of all, I want to decide the topic of the European Investigation. I know it's going to take a long time to finish it...so I would like to start working on it from now.

I want to keep improving my Spanish voxcabolary, but also get to know more grammar.

Sing a better song

Hello everyone!!


This is my first post on my first blog..




Few days ago, during my first day at college, we have all seen a really interesting and touching movie.


It was about an Irish women, Rita, who wanted to go back to Education, because he was fed up by her boring job. It was a hard decision for her: she was actually between 30s and 40s (i can't remember).


The thing I have appreciated most, was the fact that she never gave up even in terrible and hopeless moments. Her husband was really disappointed by her decision and at one point, he left her. She didnt'care, because everyone is free to decide how to spend the life, so she kept on studying even more than before.


I have really appreciate the fact she gained strenght by the people who were dead against her, finding in them the desire to improve herself in the future.


Rita's tutor played a relevant part in all of this, supporting and comforting her.

I believe that film it is been really useful for me: sweet escape when your desires are darker.
