My house would have a court of tennis, a multi flag, a big garden with many variety of plants, many security guards and employers, a big and several kinds types of illumination, a big pool with one waterfall with a cave inside and one slide and a great view for the lake.
The decoration of the house would have very variety of design types (modern, Indian, budista etc).
I would like have many dogs and a big aquarium with fish, sharks and very sorts of water animals, this aquarium could be inserted in living room to look at them, when I need to relax, sitting on my big sofa.

My trip to Béjar

My trip to Béjar

When I was in 8th grade my teacher of Physical education decided arrange one trip to Béjar for teach us how to ski.
I was very happy and excited with this ideia because I never skied and I wanted try. Of course, I wanted to see the snow too and play with my friends there.
The trip was very funny and it doesn’t take much time.
When we arrived at the snow fleds it was a beautiful time, we saw a lots of snow.
We began learning how to walk in the ski with a Spanish teacher, this day went on very fast because was very funny.
The food wasn’t so good as the Portuguese one.
Every day when we arrived in the hotel, we went to the pool, to swim and then we went to have dinner.
One night, the teacher carried us for a secret walk we went to Salamanca to see museums and pubs.
Other night teacher did something related to hypnotism he called one of us and asked about one animal.
After he asks him to do something related to that.
After he told for all of us to open the eyes. Then they saw their faces painted.
It was a joke but some of us didn’t do this because they had fear. This people laughed of the others faces.
I liked of the trip very much but by the end everybody was exhausted and all were missing the family.
