Off The Cuff

RAP MUSIC Rap music is one of the most listened musical genres, and I would say that it is the main music genre that promulgates freedom of expression. If you ask me, it would be a big mistake to ban "violent lyrics". First of all, I think that It has been very helpful for minorities groups like Afro-Americans, Hispanics...It helped them to be heard, and to fight and protest against racism and discrimination. A ban would mean censorship, the opposite of rap ideals. In my opinion, that would cause several demonstrations and controversy. Secondly, in my point of view,  there is no point in banning it, it would be a useless law...people would continue writing and listening to what they want anyway. Even if they penalize people, as I see it, they would start writing anonymously to avoid being persecued. To sum up, I completely disagree with this ban. They should not be banned because although its lyrics can be violent sometimes, they hold an important principle...

Everybody knows that music is a powerful "tool". It can be energetic or relaxing,  but it definitely cheers us up. We could put some music at school, do not we ? If you ask me, I totally agree with this idea. First of all, in my opinion, it would be a great idea . Teachers could make some rules to manage and still keep the calm during their classes. Rules like, to let students listen to music while they are doing an exercise,  essay,... But to turn down the music when the teacher explains. Then the teacher could put some soft music out loud to make lessons more dynamic and less dull. Moreover, students will be more concentrated  because they will not be distracting each other. Everyone with their headphones on...it sounds music to my ears. To sum up, I agree with this idea because everybody loves music, and the ones who do not, do need to listen to it if they do not want to. It wouldn't have to be compulsory to listen to  it.

The 70's & 80's I've chosen this theme because I didn't know what singer, band or genre of music to choose. I love a lots of bands and singers from these decades so a thought that putting all together to create a new theme would be a great idea. It was a bit difficult for me to summarize 20 years in 6 minutes but I enjoyed the research of information because I didn't consider this as homework .

Hi, Mike! I'm quite stressed because of the final exams! What about you? I agree with you, it's been a long time! I envy you. I'd like to be there! Here in Liverpool is freezing cold. There's a cold spell that, according to the forecast, is going to last until next week. And also, it has been raining a lot lately. I miss going to Ben's cafe with you bro! The rest of our friends are missing you too. I think that even the maths teacher misses you although you used to drive him by the bend! Anyway, you won't believe what I've done...My mom saw red with my last mischief! I had prepared a trick for my little sister, you know, I put a bucket full of acrylic paint above the door and the plan was that it falls when my sister passes, but unfortunatelly, it feel over mom's head. That's not all, I was so unlucky because she was wearing her new white dress that costed 300 pounds! So, yeah, that happened three months ago and I'm still paying for th...

I'll start working in summer.  I'll try a new haircut. I'll start singing lessons . I'll be more outgoing . I'll care more about myself .

It was December and my mom and I had decided to spend our Christmas holidays in Bolivia to visit our family...It would had been easier if our family hadn't been that big, and also if they hadn't lived in different cities. First of all, we visited my grandparents. They live in the countryside so it's a bit far from Santa Cruz, were most of our relatives live. We stayed there only for a few days because my mom was tired of fighting with mosquitos. My grandfather teased her about that because she was the most bitten by them. We went back to Santa Cruz and we brought my grandparents with us. We had a big dinner for Christma's Eve at my aunt's house, where everybody and their uncle came. Almost everybody gets along well,fortunely there's no bad blood. On New Year's Eve, we went to Tarija, with my grandparents,  my aunt Ruth, her husband and my cousin ib order to visit my grandfather's brother.  We went by car, and although my uncle had a GPS-it wasn't...
