THE MOST COMMON NIGHTMARES

The nightmare is a dream that can cause a restless feeling of chest tightness and difficulty for breathing. 
Can be caused for the stressful situations that we suffer during all the day. 
Also for drugs, psychological trauma and psychiatric problems. But they are often a reflection a delicate situation that we don't want to face us. By not face us them this produces emotional stress that can lead to a nightmare.

These are some examples:

When you dream that a person or animal is chasing you and you don't get ahead of it or you canot  escape it. 
According to experts these nightmares are common when we feel panic to a situation or an individual  and  we don't want to face us

If you dream of a loved one's death it is because it is important for you and you want to stay with him or her for as long as possible. If what you dream about is your death, they really symbolize that you are or want to make important changes in your life and it does not have to be about something negative

You are in danger and you can not even call for help or move to escape. The subconscious could reveal in this case that in real life we have difficulties expressing emotions or feelings.

Falling into the Abyss: On the one hand it may reveal that we feel that we are losing control of our life and that we are afraid to fail. Also that you consider that you have too many responsibilities and you need to move away from them.

TOBACCO PLANTATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES

Exploitation of children in the developed world
FOUR NEWS

SUMMARY

Thousands of children with 7 or 8 years work in plantations tobacco at the USA .The majority are sons of poor immigrants Latin American.

In the plantations are exposed many hours with contact to the nicotine. They get sick, often with vomiting, headache...

In addition, nobody told the boys safety measures and protection.

These are the data on a report  -Human Rights Watch, where

warns at the government that  is dangerous. For this, they have sent a letter the main tabaqueros to explain the situation. At the beginning they showed worried but they didn't do anything.

The international day against child labor, we should remember that there are 168 million child that they work, according to Unicef.

OPINION

This news is one of the four labor problems, I mean, the child exploitation. In addition of that they are very young for to work their work habits do not allow them to attend school. The type of work is a menace for their greetings. Since nicotine is a perjudicial substance.

I am against childish exploitation. I think a minor would not  have to work. Knowing that it is a substance that damages the health, I find it nonsense to consume it while through this work there are children that they work on it  for to make a living.

MY ACADEMIC FUTURE

Hay first say that I'm very glad of share with you this issue, my future academic.

I'm Fatima, I have sixteen and I'm student of first social bachillerat.

Why I chose the social bachillert and not the scientist?

Because the scientist bachillerat it seems to me more difficult for the subjects of biology, physical, chemestry,I mean, I'm not good at numbers.Is more stressful to.

My interest on the course it's  centre on the economy of the company because has relation with the that I want to be when I grow up . Also I'm interest with languges because I like learn languages and I enjoy  talk with people from differents countries.

Me since I was little was one of those girls that it liked the manual arts: draw and paint.

Always during in high school I chose visual and plastic  education like optative. From that time I wanted to study art or design, but I left it because I didn't consider myself creative enough. Later I wanted be an architect, but as I said before, the numbers they are not my potential. Then thinking about my skills, I will dedicate myself in administration of companies. 

Later I wanted be an architect, but as I said before, the numbers they are not my potential.

Then thinking about my skills, I will dedicate myself in administration of companies. Because it's a well-demanded and remunerated career. You have the necessary capacity to start your own company .

In conclusion, with a good learning and a great effort you can achieve any purpose. ;)

REVALIDATES OF THE WERT LAW

MY OPINION 

What does the wert law consist of?

They are final evaluation tests that students must face at the end of each academic stage. Only by passing this exam will the student be ascend to the new cycle.

The secondary school revalidation would be done at the end of 4th ESO for can get the tittle and to access at "Bachillerato". The following revalidation will take place after finishing 2nd of "Bachillerato" to obtain the title and to be able to accede to the university.

That is, if I approve first and second bachillerato but the exam no, I will not have the title and I will not to access in university. Is very sad because there are much people that has endeavored for to approve the subjects and they been spent money for the books. And this hurts to the families that not dispose of many riches.

I'm against with the revalidates because with this mechanism they want to expel thousands of young people from humble neighborhoods of the educational system

In adittion,  the PP continues to govern in office without political or legal legitimacy to do so, without compromise with anyone, and defaulting on their electoral promises from minute zero.

WHY THE DEATH IS A TABU?

MY OPINION 

I can’t talk about”Why death is a taboo” without relating it to what is the death.

Death is the abandoned of the connection between our mind and our body. Most people believe that death takes place when the heart stops beating; but this does not mean that the person has died. Simply your soul has to leave this body to go to another place that we still don't know.

So one of the motives that I think that death is a taboo, is because we don't know where we go it, that there are after it and lot more on these questions. We have fear about it and we prefer to not to talk about it. For this, we prefer enjoying the life the moments with family, friend and the new people that we meet.

Everybody knows that someday we will die but we must not hide it. We don't have that feel fear is a stage difficult but it is what makes us mortal.

DONALD TRUMP WINS THE ELECTIONS THE USA 2016

MY OPINION

A president is a person who has the highest political position in a country that is a republic and who, in some of these countries, is the leader of the government. So Republican  Donald Trump it's one of them. 

He overcame his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton in the presidential election on Tuesday in the United States, resulting in an unexpected victory after a campaign rife with controversy and scandal.

But really he's a good president?

In a press conferen he said " Sit down and get away, latin journalist",when Ramos, a latin journalist, tried to ask him certain questions about his immigration policy and his obvious and well-known racism. He didn't answer, despised him and finally he expeled him from the conference.

As you can see, he's very but very respectful.

"All Mexicans are rapists and camels","I will ban  entry to any Muslim" I will ban the gay marriage "are a one of the few barbarities that he said. Also he accused one of a woman journalists in charge of directing the first republican debate to attack him personally because of his menstruation. 

Sometimes I wonder if all has done in this campaign was a reality show act, and that he really is a serious,sober, and knowledgeable person. 

So yes, we are  before the success of a rich and a business man that he doesn't have  experience in the politics.

In conclusion, Hillary has the qualities, the experience and criteria to be president of the USA.

The ambition, which in men is a virtue and in woman them is criticized as a defect it's a unfair.

Hillary deserved to won and Trump deserved to lose.

This song speaks  about the diferents problems in all the world.

It's talk about the terrorism,  the racism about the government of EEUU , the war, the intolorance and the greed.

Some people see this song like a anthem against the terror.

This is a part of the song:

What's wrong with the world mama
People livin' like ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world's addicted to the drama
Only attracted to the things that'll bring the trauma
Over seas, yeah, we tryin' to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorist here livin'
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods, and the Crips and the KKK

But if you only have love for you own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how this angle works and operates
Man, you got to have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all

People killing, people dying
Children hurt and you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek
Father father father help us
Send some guidance from above
These people got me, got me questioning
Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love, the love, the love....

PROTEST SONG : LONDON CALLING

London calling to the faraway towns
Now war is Declared and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, you boys and girls
London calling, now do not look to us
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we is not got no swing
'Cept for the ring of That truncheon thing

The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growin 'thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear
Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, you can go it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holding out and draw another breath
London calling and I do not want to shout
But When We Were talking I saw you nodding out
London calling, see we is not got no high
Except for That One with the yellowy eyes

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Engines stop running, the wheat is growin 'thin
A nuclear mistake, but I have no fear
Cause London is drowning, and I, I live by the river

Now get this
London calling, yes, I was there, too
An 'you know what They Said? Well, some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
And after all this, will not you give me a smile? (London Calling)
I never felt so much a 'like a'like a'like
