Hold my hand
While you cut me down
It had only just begun
But now it's over now
And your
In the heat of moments
With your heart
Playing up cold
I'm between the middle
Watching hastiness unfold
In my eyes
Your were smiling
In the spotlight dancing
With the night
The night fell
Off your mind

I'm tired of trying
Your teasing ain't enough
Fed up of biding your time

When i dont get nothing back
And for and for and for
When i don't get nothing back
Boy, i'm tired

Where'd you go
When you stay behind
I looked up and inside down
And outside only to find
A double taking punching hard
And laughing at my smile
I get closer you
Obviously prefer her

Chorus:I'm tired of trying
Your teasing ain't enough
Fed up of biding your time
When i don't get nothing back
And for and for and for
When i dont get nothing back
Boy, i'm tired of trying
Your teasing aint enough
Fed up of biding your time
When i don't get nothing back
And for and for and for
When i don't get nothing back
Boy, i'm tired

(I should have known)

Never mind said
Your open arms
I couldn't help
Belive the trick me
Back into them

(Chorus)



Coge mi mano
mientras cortas conmigo
esto tiene solamente un principio
pero ahora está terminado
y tú
en el calor de los momentos
con tu corazón
enfriandose
estoy en el medio
viendo revelarse a la prisa
en mis ojos
tu estabas sonriendo
bailando bajo un reflejo
con la noche
la nooche que siente
de tu mente

Estoy cansada de intentarlo
tus burlas no son suficientes
harta de esperarte
cuando no me queda nada atras
chico,estoy cansada

Dónde tenías que ir
cuando estabas debajo
yo te busco y dentro,abajo
y fuera,solo para encontrar
un golpe doble
y reirme de mi sonrisa
estoy más cerca de ti
obiamente la prefieres a ella

Estoy cansada de intentarlo
tus burlas no son suficientes
harta de esperarte
cuando no me queda nada atras
y para y para y para
cuando no tengo nada atras
Chico,estoy cansada de intentarlo
tus burlas no son suficientes
harta de esperarte
cuando no tengo nada atras
y para y para y para
cuando no me queda nada atras
Chico,estoy cansada

(Yo debería haber sabido)

No te importe nunca hablar
tus brazos están abiertos
yo no podría ayudarte
creete mi truco
vuelve a ellos

(estribillo)

SCHOOL LIFE IN BRITAIN

1. What is the difference between public and state schools?
A public school, in common British usage, is a school which is usually prestigious and historic, which charges fees, does not arbitrarily restrict admissions, and is financed by bodies other than the state, commonly as a private charitable trust.
2. What types of schools are there in England?
Basically, there are two systems: one covering England, Wales and Northern Ireland and one covering Scotland. The two education systems have different emphases. Traditionally the English, Welsh and Northern Irish system has emphasised depth of education whereas the Scottish system has emphasised breadth. Thus English, Welsh and Northern Irish students tend to sit a small number of more advanced examinations and Scottish students tend to sit a larger number of less advanced examinations. It should be noted that local English practice can vary from this general picture although Scottish practice is well nigh universal.
3. Is school compulsory? When can students leave school?
18 years old

4. Do students wear uniforms at school?
Yes,they do
5. What tests do they do?

GCSE - General Certificate of Secondary Education
A 2-year syllabus beginning in year 10, culminating in exams in May / June of year 11. Grades are awarded from A* - G (U is a fail). If a child wants to study a subject at "A" level s/he must achieve grade C or above at GCSE. Up to 10 subjects may be taken, although the average is 6.

GCE "A"/"AS" Level - General Certificate of Education Advanced (Advanced Subsidiary) Level
A two-year syllabus beginning in year 12, culminating in exams in May / June of year 13. Some subjects are studied for the full 2 years, resulting in an "A" level examination, whilst other subjects are studied for one year only, resulting in an "AS" level examination. 4 or 5 subjects may be studied.
Grades are awarded from A - E, a grade N is equivalent to a GCSE pass, and U is a fail. For each grade points are awarded as follows: "A" Level - A=10, B=8, C=6, D=4 E=2, "AS" level = A=5, B=4, C=3, D=2, E=1. A student is offered a place at university based on the total points they achieve in their "A"/"AS" level examinations.
Results of all the above examinations are normally published in the third week of August.

VALENTINE'S DAY



1. WHO WAS ST VALENTINE? HOW MANY SAINTS DOES CATHOLIC CHURCH RECOGNIZE?
Valentine may have been killed for attempting to help Christians escape harsh Roman prisons where they were often beaten and tortured.
2. CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT THE MOST POPULAR LEGEND IS ABOUT?
Valentine actually sent the first 'valentine' greeting himself. While in prison, it is believed that Valentine fell in love with a young girl -- who may have been his jailor's daughter -- who visited him during his confinement. Before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter, which he signed 'From your Valentine,' an expression that is still in use today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic, and, most importantly, romantic figure. It's no surprise that by the Middle Ages, Valentine was one of the most popular saints in England and France.

While some believe that Valentine's Day is celebrated in the middle of February to commemorate the anniversary of Valentine's death or burial others claim that the Christian church may have decided to celebrate Valentine's feast day in the middle of February in an effort to 'christianize' celebrations of the pagan Lupercalia festival.
3. ACCORDING TO ONE LENGEND, VALENTINE SENT THE FIRST VALENTINE’ GREETING HIMSELF. WHOM?
Valentine greetings were popular as far back as the Middle Ages (written Valentine's didn't begin to appear until after 1400), and the oldest known Valentine card is on display at the British Museum. The first commercial Valentine's Day greeting cards produced in the U.S. were created in the 1840s by Esther A. Howland. Howland, known as the Mother of the Valentine, made elaborate creations with real lace, ribbons and colorful pictures known as "scrap".
4. WERE THERE ANY OTHER PAGAN CELEBRATIONS IN FEBRUARY?
In ancient Rome, February was the official beginning of spring and was considered a time for purification. Houses were ritually cleansed by sweeping them out and then sprinkling salt and a type of wheat called spelt throughout their interiors. Lupercalia, which began at the ides of February, February 15, was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.
5. WHAT DID ROMAN BOYS DO AT LUPERCALIA FESTIVITY?
To begin the festival, members of the Luperci, an order of Roman priests, would gather at the sacred cave where the infants Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome, were believed to have been cared for by a she-wolf or lupa. The priests would then sacrifice a goat, for fertility, and a dog, for purification.
The boys then sliced the goat's hide into strips, dipped them in the sacrificial blood and took to the streets, gently slapping both women and fields of crops with the goathide strips
6.WHO WROTE THE OLDEST KNOWN VALENTINE STILL IN EXISTENCE TODAY? WHY?
Esther A. Howland began to sell the first mass-produced valentines in America.
7. ACCORDING TO GREETING CARD ASSOCIATION, HOW MANY VALENTINE CARDS ARE SENT EACH YEAR?
According to the Greeting Card Association, an estimated one billion valentine cards are sent each year, making Valentine's Day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year.

8. CHOOSE YOUR FAVOURITE VALENTINE’S DAY QUOTATION AND WRITE IT DOWN.
Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.

9. SEND YOUR OWN E-VALENTINE CARD TO SOMEONE
Dear Steve;
How are you?
I write you to explain to you what I feel for you.I want that you know that I love you and that you like me a lot since I know you.

ANOREXIA Y BULIMIA

TO LEARN MORE ABOUT EATING DISORDERS ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS:

-What is anorexia? Anorexia is an eating disorder where people starve themselves. Anorexia usually begins in young people around the onset of puberty. Individuals suffering from anorexia have extreme weight loss. Weight loss is usually 15% below the person's normal body weight. People suffering from anorexia are very skinny but are convinced that they are overweight. Weight loss is obtained by many ways. Some of the common techniques used are excessive exercise, intake of laxatives and not eating.

-What is bulimia? Bulimia, also called bulimia nervosa, is a psychological eating disorder. Bulimia is characterized by episodes of binge-eating followed by inappropriate methods of weight control (purging). Inappropriate methods of weight control include vomiting, fasting, enemas, excessive use of laxatives and diuretics, or compulsive exercising. Excessive shape and weight concerns are also characteristics of bulimia. A binge is an episode where an individual eats a much larger amount of food than most people would in a similar situation. Binge eating is not a response to intense hunger. It is usually a response to depression, stress, or self esteem issues. During the binge episode, the individual experiences a loss of control. However, the sense of a loss of control is also followed by a short-lived calmness. The calmness is often followed by self-loathing. The cycle of overeating and purging usually becomes an obsession and is repeated often.


-What is the difference between anorexia and bulimia? People with anorexia starve themselves, avoid high-calorie foods and exercise constantly. People with bulimia eat huge amounts of food, but they throw up soon after eating, or take laxatives or diuretics (water pills) to keep from gaining weight. People with bulimia don't usually lose as much weight as people with anorexia.



-What is the treatment for anorexia? Treatment of anorexia is difficult, because people with anorexia believe there is nothing wrong with them. Patients in the early stages of anorexia (less than 6 months or with just a small amount of weight loss) may be successfully treated without having to be admitted to the hospital. But for successful treatment, patients must want to change and must have family and friends to help them.People with more serious anorexia need care in the hospital, usually in a special unit for people with anorexia and bulimia. Treatment involves more than changing the person's eating habits.


-What are the problems caused by anorexia? Girls with anorexia usually stop having menstrual periods. People with anorexia have dry skin and thinning hair on the head. They may have a growth of fine hair all over their body. They may feel cold all the time, and they may get sick often. People with anorexia are often in a bad mood. They have a hard time concentrating and are always thinking about food. It is not true that anorexics are never hungry. Actually, they are always hungry. Feeling hunger gives them a feeling of control over their lives and their bodies. It makes them feel like they are good at something--they are good at losing weight. People with severe anorexia may be at risk of death from starvation.

-What is an eating disorder? An eating disorder is an obsession with food and weight that harms a person's well-being. Although we all worry about our weight sometimes, people with an eating disorder go to extremes to keep from gaining weight. There are two main eating disorders: anorexia nervosa and bulimia.


-How can family and friends help? The most important thing that family and friends can do to help a person with anorexia is to love them. People with anorexia feel safe, secure and comfortable with their illness. Their biggest fear is gaining weight, and gaining weight is seen as loss of control. They may deny they have a problem. People with anorexia will beg and lie to avoid eating and gaining weight, which is like giving up the illness. Family and friends should not give in to the pleading of the anorexic patient.

-How does anorexia affect your body? With anorexia, your body doesn't get the energy from foods that it needs, so it slows down. Look at the picture below to find out how anorexia affects your health.
