Pleeeeeze...

"...may I come in?¿?"

My bedroom window, second floor... he climbed the tree!

Fotos d'Aquests Dies

Various pictures I've taken these days I'm on holidays... Sea, gardens, birds...









No captions! Have no idea what to write... but aren't the birdies sweet? They sing beautifully.

Història Del Segon Trimestre

Bé, doncs, començades les vacances del segon trimestre, faré una mica "d'update" en les "ocurrencias que han ocurrido aquí".
Punto Uno: El Code-Switching mola. Comentari que m'acaba de venir al cap.
Anyway, us deixo aquí les notes, perquè segur que algun dia, quan ens veiem, em preguntareu, "Què, com han anat les notes?!", amb cara d'expectació i els ulls oberts. Ja-ja-ja...

Biologia: 10
E.E.C.: 10
Física i Química: 10
Matemàtiques: 10
Castellà: 9
Català: 9
Francès: 9
Història: 9
A.E.A.: 8
Anglès: 8
E.F.:8
P.D.R.: 8

Algunes sorpreses: no m'esperava un 9 en història, per exemple, comptant que el trimestre passat vaig treure un 7, i que no em va molt bé. Però amb esforç i perseverància es pot tot, com he pogut comprovar.
L'altra sorpresa ha sigut el 8 d'anglès... que en un principi em va fer agafar un atac de riure, però que després, quan hi vaig pensar, vulguis que no em va fastidiar un pèl. Per un examen que no vaig fer, i que ningú em va dir res sobre aquest, em va baixar la nota. I vaig treure un deu en l'últim examen!
Aeee, peteqle...
Una altra sorpresa va ser el 10 de Educació Eticocívica... perquè ni vaig estudiar, ni m'hi dedicava molt, però vaig treure un 9'5 en l'examen i mira... potra del principiant. ;)
Per aquestes vacances tinc un niu de coses per fer. I m'encanta. Encara que no ho sembli, estar ocupada és de les millors coses que hi ha, perquè això de quedar-se sense fer res i aburrir-se com una ostra, a mi no em va. I entre quedar per treballar en el Projecte de Recerca, anar a la picina perquè m'ho va dir el fisio, i tenir tres o quatre cartes per escriure, a més de moltes altres coses, estaré molt ocupada. I ben contenta!
Bé, doncs "l'update" arriba fins aquí.
Bones vacances a tothom!

For those who haven't understood a thing, I'll try and do the same update in English... ;)

An Amazing Balloon

This was long ago, at a friend's party. We got a balloon and tried to pop it by placing it between the door and the wall, and after that closing the door. It not only didn't pop, but we had real trouble in shutting the door and the balloon stayed there when it was once closed.
Go figure. I leave you to your own conclusion.

Un Diccionari Curiós

Abella: és una mosca amb ràdio. (11 anys)
Animal: pot ser qualsevol dels meus germans. (9 anys)
Badall: és una "A" molt llarga.
Cuiner: és la persona que podria ser la més grassa del món. (9 anys)
Diners: és el sopar dels francesos.
Electricitat: és una cosa molt corrent.
Encostipat: és un concert de tos i esternuts.
Maduixa: és un cor de fruita.
Vent: és el torment d'algú que prta perruca. (17 anys)

Una amiga meva tenia un diccionari de definicions que havien donat nens de totes les edats. Les havia recollit un programa de radio que les havia recopilat totes en un diccionari. Em va prestar el diccionari fa molt de temps, i fa un parell de dies vaig trobar un paperet amb les definicions que havia copiat. La meva definició preferida és la de l'electricitat!

Cosas Que Se Pueden Hacer Con Una Flor

Recogí una flor caída del árbol, y saqué un par de fotos con ella, jugando un poco con los fondos y las combinaciones.

En mi mano...

Chock...

Tejanos...

Flip-flops...

y mi camiseta de tirantes!

Me gustó el resultado. =)

Welcoming Spring With Open Arms

Sunshine... warmth... flowers... colour... bees... bird songs...
Oh my, I love spring! All the new tiny flower buds that appear, all the new babies that will be born in no time... oh, spring is lovely.
I went for a walk last week. It was very warm and sunny, and after having bad weather, rain and clouds, it was totally irresistible. I asked Mummy for her camera, and started walking.

Our peach tree, starting to turn pink and green.

A combination of red, green and white...

A wild flower, growing on a stone wall, and stone steps.

The ground, full of white fallen petals from the trees.

While on my walk I discovered a kind of cave with a bee hive in it. It was wonderful to watch the bees going in and out of the cave, working.

The view down the valley. It's beautiful and I usually spend hours and hours watching it while on my walks or when I study.

Peach tree plus our yellow house... =)

Isn't spring delightful? Everything looks fresh and new!

Marró

Sweet smiles everywhere...

S.S.S.

Sometimes our cat is known as the "Three S's", as Silly Skitty Scotty.
Don't ask me why...

This is a clear example of why we call him that way...

I was told cats eat mice... but I guess this one isn't normal.

Any doubts?

I didn't know wood was that nutritious...

If that's what happens when you eat sticks, I really don't want to try it.

He certainly seems to like it... maybe with a pinch of salt...

There, he falls asleep after that...

I do not advise sleeping in that position... next thing you'll know is, you'll be rolling on the floor!

These pictures were taken last Saturday, a very warm, lazy and summerish day, and certainly, one had this wanting to sleep in the sun! Scotty did a great job at posing, so I thought I'd post them on the blog. =)

Thoughtful

Sara...

...y Anna...








¿...quién sabe en qué están pensando...?

Algo Bonito

"Por una mirada un cielo;
por una sonrisa un mundo;
por un beso... ¡yo no sé
qué te diera por un beso!"

Gustavo Adolfo Béquer

Típica frase de nick de MSN. Lo he visto muchas veces cuando me conectaba, y solía pensar que era una frase popular inventada por cualquiera que estaba enamorado... pero el otro día, leyendo el enorme libro de mi hermana de "Rimas y Leyendas", de Béquer, vi este fragmento... y me quedé muy sorprendida.
¡Me gusta Béquer!

Update!!

Hellooooooooooooo everybody!
I've just been for a wonderful walk... it smells like spring!! And it's beautiful, really. I was able to pick a bunch of nice flowers and plants and I placed them on my desk.
I am writing a quick update, so you'll see I haven't disappeared from the face of this earth - not yet, anyway...
I will write a quick update on my life... I've been very busy lately studying and reading and writing a lot, so I haven't been much on the computer, only to check e-mail and do a couple of things... now I am back from a lovely walk, and before I start working, I said to myself, let's write an update!
Soooo what is new in my life? I'll be sixteen in two months, almost. =) I have learnt to use my Mummy's camera, and I have learnt how to play with my cat without it biting me all the time. I enjoy playing the flute more than ever, and I love spring, I really do...
As for my studies, I'll say I've had 10's in all the Maths exams I've had this semester, 10 in Biology as well, a 9'75 in Phyisics, a 9 in History, a 9 in Catalan, 9's and 8's in Spanish, and I think that's all... I have an exam next week, I had an exam yesterday, another today, so naturally, I don't know those marks yet.
I'm back to teaching English! And I have such a delightful time. It's lots of fun, and I like it better than last year.
And now, as I finish a delicious tea and stare dreamily out of the window, watching the white, cotton clouds sail the sky... I leave you to your own affairs...

Some New Blog

"My parents bought me a very cool camera, CANON Powershot A420, for an advanced birthday present. My birthday is in May, and we were going on holidays in April, so I asked them to buy it for me in advanced. And they did!! I've had the same camera for a year and a half, and then it broke down. Sniff.
So I decided to create a blog where I would post all the pictures I took in this time,

"So I can show the new world I discovered through the small window my camera is"

~Enjoy!!"

This is the explanation of a new blog. It's called A Window To Another World, and, as you can read, it's about pictures.
I invite you to visit it! But you need a special permission, so if you have a real interest in visiting it, send an e-mail to silvershadowofpalemoonlight@googlemail.com with the address I should send the invitation to, and I will be willing to send it to you!

Little things...

...Please little minds.

By that, consider my mind little. =P

I discovered how to do an online signature, actually thanks to a friend, because she had it on her blog. Anyway, here goes!

Cat-a-coomb

That is, as a matter of fact, the new nickname Three S's has... (for those who haven't read any old post, Three S's goes for "Silly Skitty Scotty).
And these are new pictures of Catacoomb! :D

At first, he was kind of shy...

He definitively lost his shyness, though!

Ain't he the cutest Kittywums in the world!

The Excellence Of Wisdom

"But where shall wisdom be found?, and where is the place of understanding?
"Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.
"The depth saith, It is not in me; and the sea saith, It is not with me.
"It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price thereof.
"It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
"The gold and the crystal cannot equal it; and the exchange of it shall not be for jewels of fine gold.
"No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls; for the price of wisdom is above rubies.
"The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shal it be valued with pure gold.
"Whence then cometh wisdom?, and where is the place of understanding?"

"God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof."

Job 28:12-20, 23

Happy
