Next month I’m going to move to a new house, so I’m organizing all my things, putting them on boxes and throwing away that kind of things which I know I’m not going to use any more.
Last week I was in the attic separating some books, when I suddenly found my old diary. It has been ages since I last saw it; as I’m always moving from one house to another I thought I had lost it many years ago. I immediately sit down and started to read it. I found funny anecdotes and some others that made me cry, but although this I felt very pleased because I had some minutes to come back to my childhood.
It was funny to read a page where I wrote that I had many problems, too many things to think of in a short period of time, and a big confusion in my mind….I didn’t know that life would be harder than it used to be in that moment.
Having found my diary has brought me back many memories and feelings I have forgotten, but mostly it help me realize that many other things are still the same as they used to be in the past, such as the loneliness I feel when I’m with my parents and my sister, or when I talk to them; or even when I’m with my friends and I feel misunderstood. It has also showed me that the relation I have with my sister has always been the same, and that time doesn’t seem to make it a better one; but I have not changed my personality neither, I’m still a very sensitive, stubborn and boring person.

A SAFE PLACE

When I was 14 years old I fell in love with an older boy; he was 17 and my sister’s classmate. He had almost invited her in a date but before he could ask her out she told his friends not to do that because she had recently broken up with her boyfriend.
I met him in a holiday. One of my friends had invited me to go with her to his house, and her brother ( one of my sister’s classmate too) invited the boy whom I fell in love to go with him. And all started there. We were always talking and having fun, but both of as were too shy to talk about anything else but silly things.
When I came back to my house we always chat and sent e-mails. But suddenly all my sister’s friends started to bother me with him and it seemed that it was the end of all.
We can say that “all” was nothing, because I didn’t know him too much, and we never said anything to each other about what we would feel. But when I saw him at school I could feel a wonderful sensation when he looked at me. Very deep in my heart I know that he felt at list something about me(some of my friend agree with me because, as they say, he used to look at me in a special way, but some other are not).
I have never known what he really felt about me, but now, three years later I’m still thinking of him as my first love, although it may not be corresponded. When I see him or even when I think of him I feel a huge appraisal to him and affection, but not what it used to be: a kind of obsession.

MY LITTLE GIRL, MU LITTLE FRIEND
Roxi, a six years old girl, was taking breakfast with her family one day when suddenly she saw a little girl standing next to her mum. Roxi, as she was a very sociable girl, immediately went to her and said hello, without asking herself where did that girl came from.
They quickly became very closed friends although the little girl was not a good talker, and when she did talk, she never said a word about her.(Roxi never knew the little girl’s name).
The months passed and they didn’t stop playing and having fun. The little girl was a good companion; as she didn’t talk too much, Roxi could talk for hours feeling that someone finally really understand her. ( but it didn’t mean that they didn’t fight each other sometimes). These two young girls got on very well and where all day together.
But more or less one year later Roxi started feeling a little jealous because the girl wasn’t with her all the time, and when she finally found her, she was with HER mum. One day she felt very lonely because she had spent three days without seeing the little girl, besides her mother wasn’t there too. “As she had been told”, the mother was in a trip and she would come back soon. But she never appeared in the house again, instead Roxi’s father took her to the hospital because her mother was very ill and she wanted to see her daughter. When they arrived Roxi saw the little girl taking her mother’s hands. They didn’t say a word in that moment and never again. Two days later her mother died and the little girl disappeared for ever.
Roxi never talked about the girl because she had always known that she was a very special girl and that Roxi was the only one in her family that could see her.
10 years later Roxi was told that when she was born she had had a twin but unfortunately she had died during birth. In that moment Roxi realized that the little girl she used to see when she was young, and that accompanied her mother until death was her sister.

Something about me
Hello!!! , I know it may be late but I will tell you something about me, so that you know what has been of my life until now.
I was born the 14th of July, 1990 in Cordoba. There I went to a kindergarden called “Lili pul” where I had many friends; now I only remember a few of them. The place where I lived was “Poeta Lugones”, (30 minutes from the capital city). At the age of four more or less, I had to move to Jujuy because of my father’s job. That change didn’t affect me too much because I was too young to realize what was going on. In Jujuy I went to “Santa Barbara” school where I met my first best friends. There I spent most of my childhood till I was 9 years old; I think it was a good and calmed, but funny childhood, with no accidents and no problems, just happiness(of course there were some difficult situations, but people there make your life easier). In 2000 I moved (again) to Tucumán. For four years I attended to “San Juan el Precursor”; it’s a great school, it’s nice how everybody knows each other and share many things, although they are from different ages. I made many friends there, excellent friends actually, but because my parents wanted a better education for me, and because I wanted to study something related to biology, I changed to “Saint Patrick School”.
As you have realized I have made many changes in my life, but I admit that they have helped me to grow up and make me stronger. I don’t have any problems in getting used to something new, or meeting new people; on the contrary…I really like changes…
The most difficult change was moving to Tucumán because I was used to the kindness of people in Cordoba and Jujuy; here, people are very reserved and are not used to join new people to their society. But although all the difficulties I may have found here, I could make a great group of friends, with whom I share my successes and my problems, my happiness and my sadness. I’m really thankful to them because they showed me that not everything is lost and that there’s always light beyond darkness.

"What makes the desert beautiful," says the little prince, "is that somewhere it hides a well."
I always try to be an optimistic person because I think that if you find the positive aspects of things, it will give you the strength to go on doing that thing that may be at the beginning you didn’t want to do it.
All of us will have to do things that we don’t want to, but on the other hand IT is a responsibility, like work, school or even a family to care about, and we can’t just say we don’t want to assume our responsibilities.
"Here is the important part again: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
It is so true what the Little Prince says here. Sometimes I feel guilty because I’m always telling my friends the type of person that is someone who I have just met, but it’s not because I see the appearances of that person, it’s just that I let myself to trust on what my heart tells me.
But the heart is not the only thing you have to take into account; personally I also look deeply into the other person’s eyes. For me it’s very important because in that way I know if the person is lying to me or if he or she is just telling the truth.
"Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them."
Yeah, it seems like if older people have forgotten that they once used to be children, or adolescents.
I hate when my parents laugh at me when I’m worried about something that is important to me, and they tell me “why do you worry about that insignificant thing?. When you grow up you’ll have more important things to worry about”.
Why is it so necessary for them to turn your problems in just child’s stuff?
Why can’t they just understand that their problems are not the same as ours, but that not mean that we don’t have any problems?

Personal reaction of Tears in heaven and the last song
http://www.lyrics007.com/Eric%20Clapton%20Lyrics/Tears%20In%20Heaven%20Lyrics.html
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRsJlAJvOSM
http://www.eltonography.com/songs/the_last_song.html
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOQDgAeFNUQ
The themes presented in both songs are death and love between a father and a son; they show us how much a father could love his son and how far could it go (unconditional love).
The song “tears in heaven” moved me very much because death took the father by surprised: all the expectations and wishes he had for his son disappear in a short period of time. But personally I felt more touched by “the last song” because I can put me in the son’s position (I’m not a mother/father, so that I could know how difficult may be to lose your son, although I could imagine it). I felt very identified with the son in this song because I had many discussions with my parents because I FEEL they don’t listen to me, and they think all my feeling are not important because of my age (they are always telling me that I don’t have to give importance to the things that worry me because they are just child stuff).
I recognize that we (adolescents) usually tend to look life as a “happy period” when you have to have fun, where there are no responsibilities and no problems to solve; but then we realized that our parents were right when they told us “it’s not always that simple”.
But although sometimes I may feel angry with them I know they want the best for me, and that they will support me in any moment of my life when I need them.
This song also made me realized that it’s good to tell your parents how you feel, what you think and what you want. In the last stanza of the lyric the son expresses how good and relieved he felt once he had told the truth to his father, and it made me notice that having a good relationship with your parents, based on confidence, understanding and hearing the other person will help the members of the family to keep join.

Here I show you one of my favorites songs. It's call Heaven. The version here is from Dj Sammy, but the original one is from Bryan Adams. I hope you like it!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCD7bSgR2Xc
http://www.lyrics007.com/Bryan%20Adams%20Lyrics/Heaven%20Lyrics.html
This song may be about a couple, could be wife and husband or just two people (not necessary married), that have been together since a long time (since they were young).
At first, when you’re reading the lyric you may think that when the singer says heaven, she means it literally, but at the end of it (“now our dreams are coming true”) you realize that she wants to express that they are in the best period of their lives, when they are very happy, satisfied, comfortable and full of love.
I like very much when she says “baby you’re all that I want, when you’re lying here in my arms, I’m finding it hard to believe we’re in heaven / And love is all that I need, and I found it there in your heart, it isn’t too hard to see we’re in heaven”. She contradicts herself and I think it’s because at first she analyses the situation superficially, but then, when she knows what she really wants (someone to love and who loves her), thinks if she has got that, and find out that she has certainly got it, she realizes that just being with her lover is being in heaven.
When it says “but just hold me now, cause our love will light the way” you can notice that they are old people who may be about to die, (the word “way” represents the way to death). It’s comfortable to know that the love they have for each other will help them to face up the idea of death; and also that they support each other and will be with the other in the good and bad times.
I choose this song because it’s very soft and relaxing; and taking into account the lyric, because I would like to find that kind of love in my life so that I could say the same things about him when I’ am old, and analyzing what I’ve done in my entire life.
