Spain in Eurovision, another year trying to not have the last position

Eurovision, is a famous festival that every year Europe celebrate. Normally, Eurovision is broadcast in May and it is broadcast in all the europe's TVs. Also, in some other countries of other continents like Australia.
And we know, Spain isn't the perfect country to win Eurovision Song Contest. We never have the winner song. And if we have it, the european countries don't vote to our country. For example, in 2012 Pastora Soler represented Spain in the festival and the song was a fantastic ballad and the singer was incredible on the stage, but we had the tenth position, and obviously we didn't win...
If we remember, Spain hasn't have a good song for Eurovision every year. Only, we won in the years 1968, in London, with the song "La, la, la" by Massiel and the second time was in 1969 with Salome with the song "Vivo Cantando". But not more. There were years that we got 0 points.
On the left, you can see how was the show of Rodolfo el Chikiliquatre. Perhaps that year year was the worse...
This year, TVE (televisión española), didn't choose a singer for represent Spain in Eurovision Song Contest. There was a preselection and the spanish viewers voted the artist that they like. But it's possible that TVE said a false thing. They invented who is the winner for represent Spain in the festival. I say it because the spanish viewers must voted to our favorite singer and TVE say that we choose Ruth. In twitter thousands of people was angry. So maybe TVE said that the winner is Ruth but the truth is Brequette is the winner.


There was two favorite artist. The first, is my favorite because the song is incredible. She is Brequette Cassie. And the other, is the person that is going to represent Spain this year, Ruth Lorenzo.


Ruth Lorenzo: Dancing in the rain
Brequette Cassie: Más (Run)

Ruth Lorenzo is very famous in the United Kingdom because she participated in a TV programme called The X Factor (like The Voice in our country). So we can say that we are going to have the votes of The UK. Also, votes from Portugal.

Last position for Spain
In my opinion, this year is also difficult to win with the simple song dancing in the rain but it is only my opinion.
It's probably that we see in this edition of Eurovision in Denmark, Spain in the last positions. Ruth Lorenzo said that she want to see water in the stage. And when she sing, the water fall like the rain. If Ruth can get the water, perhaps Spain have a good position this year. The staging is very important in this festival. There are between 200 and 600 million of people that watch Eurovision Song Contest, so the staging must be perfect. If the staging is bad, maybe we are going to have this position (image on the right).

Happiness

So, what do you think?: What is happiness? Is necessary  money to be happy? Can money buy happiness? Can you be happy to do good or to do evil? Is happiness depends on what we have or what we are?

Well, sometimes we think that to be happy just need a new phone or new clothes or money, some people look happy: simply, the issue isn't raised, other make plans for example: I will have a big house, a handsome and big car or whatever else like this, they don't think, they only advance.
Some get these things , they think that the sense of life is summarized in this and they don´t ask what is hapiness. They think that they don't need friends or anyone to make them happy and they say taht to be happy is only having money... 



Happiness is not based on money or clothes , for me happiness is being in the company of family and friends who love me and appreciate me just as I am, the material comes and goes and for example you can' t buy happiness or friends or compare money with the moments that you share with your family and friends. It is also important to feel good with yourself and feel free, not depend on any person and not get carried by what people say about you.

Here you have a song , I guess that you know what is it, that speaks about happiness.
























Questions:

1)What is happiness for you?
2)Do you consider yourself a happy person?
3)Do you think that you can be happy all the time?
4)How is called the song? What do you think this song tries to transmit?
5)Tell me something that you do to be happy.

An you... in which part of Montoro do you prefer been to?



Hi everybody!
This time I'm going to ask you what's your favourite place here,in Montoro but first I'm going to talk about some of my favourites places in Montoro:


  • The first place that I'm going to talk is the ''El Charco''.This is one of the most animated and friendliest parts of Montoro because many inhabitants go here and pass their free time with friends or family as the're talking in the differents bars that are here. I like it because all the times that you go, you know somebody that is there and all the people that is here is so friendly and you're never bored.




  • Other place that I love it is the main square. I like it as the same reason as the ''El Charco''. The majority of Montoro is here the weekends or the afternoons of the week. The best for me,is that there are many old people that I know and they always tell me stories of when they're young and I learn many things.



  • Another two places that I like are the park and the ''Puente Nuevo''. You can do many sports as you are with friends or knowns. They're places that you can go everyday and you go there for relax or for do something different. There are many things for stay as comfortable as possible.           They're places that many people go along there during the day and day-to-day are planned new projects to improve even the place.
















I think that Montoro it's the perfect place for all. It's usually a sunny place,it's a place that thanks to its situation,you can do many things in a same day.
Thanks to the improvements to the city,the city won more places to do more things yet.
The country is very animated because thanks to its habituals events,there are very usually parties to celebrate it.

When the tourists come here, they 
back home surprised because is beautiful thanks to its history and many people show gratitude for the proximity of the inhabitants of Montoro to them.

So,now is your turn:

1.-Do you visit the places that I talk about? What do you do there?
2.-Talk about your favourites places here and suggest which things can be practised there.
3.-Recommend an area which not many people go there and you go,talk about what to do there.
