SPRING BREAK

Thursday, 14 April 2011

SPRING BREAK is an interruption of classes around the time of our Easter holidays that occurs in some countries in the world like the United States, Canada, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, China, UK, Brazil and Dominican Republic.

In this week (or weeks, depending on the countries) students go the beaches and drink and party all over the day and night. These weeks are marked by many festivals, concerts, entertainment, alcohol and nudity on beaches.

We can see the difference by comparing the cultures and school universes around the world. Here the Easter holidays have a very religious meaning as everywhere but students take the opportunity to rest and study and not to celebrate until they fell.

Nina Simone

Saturday, 9 April 2011

One of the most famous jazz singers of all times and also one of my favorites. Almost all her songs speak about love, but love amongst all beings as she fought with all her power against racism. She has had a great influence from Bach which is clear in this song. I hope you enjoy her voice as much as I do.

Dance english

As I had promised here is my work about dance. In a strange way, dance has become my shelter, the place I run to when the world just seems upside down. I recommend this experience to everyone. Just try it because “I see dance being used as communication between body and soul, to express what it's too deep to find for words”, maybe you´ll see it too.
