About myself
My name is Cristina. I'm in my twenties. I'm studying Information Science at university and I'm also job-hunting at the moment.
As for my personality, I consider myself as a shy but sociable person. I mean, the first time I meet someone I am not the one who starts a conversation but once the ice is broken I'm very sociable and friendly. Apart from that, my friends say that I have my feet firmly on the ground, that is, I'm a realistic person and I know what my limits are.
My pet
In my case my pets are cats. They are very beautiful. They eat wiskas too much. Their names are Ruby and Panty. Panty is bigger than Ruby.
They play together all day and they like sleeping all day in the bed and the sofa too. They are waiting for me when I get home.
Well, I worked in the morning. During that day I received a lot of gifts from my co-workers, parents and friends, but the most special gift that I received was from my little son, Gabriel (he is 4 years old). He gave me a lot of kisses and hugs.
Robin Hood was an English hero who helped poor people unselfishly. Robin Hood, the ombudsman, lived in a forest called Sherwood.
Robin Hood is a legend which will always be read by a lot of people.

When it's raining, they want to enter the house, but my parents don't want them inside of the home.
Ruby is blond and fat and his eyes are yellow. Panty is black and slim, similiar to a panther, and his eyes are yellow too.
My family
I'm going to talk about statements about my family. What they eat/drink.
My father eats a bar of chocolate and a packet of crisps every day. He hates vegetables. I often tell him he must do more exercise and eat more fruit.
My mother is very thin. However, she likes ice-creams and biscuits. She sometimes goes walking. Therefore, she isn't fat.
My brother loves drinking a lot of coke. He should have some mineral water because it's healthy. He doesn't eat meat but he eats carrots, cabbages, apples, strawberries, oranges and grapes.
I'm keen on sweets. I have always eaten them. I like having a coffee for breakfast. I seldom have an ice-cream but I often eat chocolate.
Letter to a
friend
Dear
Elaine and Bill,
I'm
sorry about you having hurt your knee, Bill, but despite of that, I've thought
about an alternative plan. There is a camping site, which has a lake and
beautiful views, where we could do a lot of activities, for example a guide
around the forest or we can sail on the lake, this way you won't have to walk
for a long time due to your knee, Bill.
In
this place it is always sunny, but it is a little cold in the morning, so I
recommend that you wear a jacket.
For lunch we could do a picnic in the forest, under the
shadows of the trees. I promise I take you Spanish food as gazpacho to eat. I
know you love it!
Lastly,
the camping site, called El Chorro, is only half hour by bus, so we could meet
at the bus station in Malaga at 9.00 a.m.
I
hope my suggestion will like you and we will have a wonderful day!
My last birthday
My birthday is on December 18. I don't want to tell you the year, because you know women prefer to keep a secret about it.
Well, I worked in the morning. During that day I received a lot of gifts from my co-workers, parents and friends, but the most special gift that I received was from my little son, Gabriel (he is 4 years old). He gave me a lot of kisses and hugs.
My husband invited me to take lunch to a nice hotel restaurant and he gave me flowers and wine. Everything was pretty and nice.
My mother-in-law baked a big and delicious birthday cake and in the evening my parents and friends sang happy birthday to me.
I thank God for giving me a new year of life.
Robin Hood
I'm going to talk about Robin Hood. I decided to write about Robin Hood because I think the film is exciting and interesting. I also think everybody likes it.

Robin Hood was an English hero who helped poor people unselfishly. Robin Hood, the ombudsman, lived in a forest called Sherwood.
He was a skillful archer who stole rich people and then, he gave some money to poor people. There were a lot of people who didn't have means of support. So, Robin Hood was their hero.
People who had some power governed badly because they had some wealth illegitimately. For that reason, Robin Hood took the law into his own hands.
Robin Hood was an avenging man. Nowadays, there are a lot of monuments in his memory.
Robin Hood is a legend which will always be read by a lot of people.

Aesop's Fables: The Lion and the Mouse
Once when a Lion was asleep a little Mouse began running up and down upon him; this soon wakened the Lion, who placed his huge paw upon him, and opened his big jaws to swallow him. "Pardon, O King," cried the little Mouse: "forgive me this time, I shall never forget it: who knows but what I may be able to do you a turn some of these days?" The Lion was so tickled at the idea of the Mouse being able to help him, that he lifted up his paw and let him go. Some time after the Lion was caught in a trap, and the hunters who desired to carry him alive to the King, tied him to a tree while they went in search of a wagon to carry him on. Just then the little Mouse happened to pass by, and seeing the sad plight in which the Lion was, went up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bound the King of the Beasts.

Well, the Farmer thought it best to make it up with the Serpent, and brought food and honey to the mouth of its lair, and said to it: "Let's forget and forgive; perhaps you were right to punish my son, and take vengeance on my cattle, but surely I was right in trying to revenge him; now that we are both satisfied why should not we be friends again?"
