This is my last blog. This topic is about a book that I want to recommend its name is "Three Cups of Tea". This book was part of my assignments in mi R&w class and is a bestseller. I try to give you a little resume about the story. Three Cups of Tea tells us the history of Greg Mortenson who is a climber. He was returning from a failed attempt to reach the K2 summit. Exhausted and disoriented, he turned away from his group and he lost in one of the most desolate areas of northern Pakistan. Alone and without food, water and warm clothes, he suddenly found himself in a poor Pakistani village, where he was cared for until his recovery.
As he recovered, he watched as the children of the village studied their lessons in the worst conditions they didn't have a school, chairs, nothing! They are by writing with a stick on the ground. The village was so poor that anybody could pay nothing. Before returning home, Mortenson promised to return and build a school. From that promise was born one of the most incredible humanitarian campaigns in history: the one-man mission to fight against extremism and terrorism by building schools.
I really liked this book and I recommend you totally.
My favorite holiday is Christmas.. and it is coming!! In my country we celebrate with a lot of food, gifts and fireworks the December 24 at midnight (first hour December 25). Our dinner starts is between 10 pm and 12:00 (midnight).
In my case my celebration starts 1 month before. I'm really excited when I go shopping for decorate my Christmas tree. Each year I buy different stuff for it and I am really happy. For another hand, one week before, I go to buy all the ingredients for the dinner. I usually make the dinner. I love it do it!!I
I usually prepare for appetizer carrot cake, corn cake with cheese, fruits, and fondue. For the entrees always turkey (it is special) and pork and sometimes leg of ham glazed.. all are delicious!! This is my second time I will not stay in Christmas in my country, sometimes I feel melancholic but I really like is holiday! This year I will celebrate with my friends. I try to continue my tradition in make a special dinner, celebrate in midnight and give gift for everyone!!
All us have heard about weird marriages. Exist people who married with Eiffel Tower, with their pillow, with their grandmother and for more incredible to seem have a men who married with himself!! Here i will tell about another weird marriage.
Magali Jaskiewicz and Jonathan George a couple from France who had planned to marry, but unfortunately he was murdered two days before the ceremony. The bride contacted a lawyer who help she finding the way for that she will be able to married with her died groom. The attorney found a French civil code that allows posthumous marriage if they were completed all the documents for the wedding before one of the them die.
Actually I don't against to weird marriages. I think all people have a different feelings and we need to respect their decisions. Finally the love is love.. I know many people choose the love in different ways but finally is love.. all is depend how you want to see that.
