Book vs Film

In my opinion, the book and the film are altogether different. The only same thing, is the argument of the novel.

The setting it's completely different, in the book, Verona it's a city, and in the film it's a village near the beach.

The night, represents the romantic scenes of Romeo and Juliet, and the day's moments are of tension and conflict.

In the book, the language it's adequate for the setting, but in the film it's not adequate because is all the more modern, exept the form of speaking.

The element more prominent it's the change the swords for de guns. In the book are used in the movie swords and pistols.

Grease, the musical :)

This year for the first time in our high school will play the musical GREASE.
We practised this musical at the hour of music with our teacher. My teacher is Auxi.
In this musical, the protagonist is Oriol Pujadas and the other protagonist is Clara Vargas. More people of my class will participate in the music, for example, Cristina, Mireia, Maria and Marta will make the Pink Ladies. I play Patty Simpson, a girl a little silly and a little posh.
The musical will do at the end of the course.

Song :)

Russian Roulette - Rihanna
Take a breath, take it deep 
Toma un respiro, tómalo profundamente
Calm yourself, he says to me 
cálmate, el me dice:
If you play, you play for keeps
si juegas, juega para subsistir
Take a gun, and count to three
toma un arma y cuenta hasta tres
I’m sweating now, moving slow
ahora estoy sudando, moviéndome lentamente
No time to think, my turn to go
no hay tiempo para pensar, me toca ir.

And you can see my heart beating
Y tu puedes ver mi corazón latir
You can see it through my chest
puedes verlo a través de mi pecho
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
estoy aterrada pero no me marchare
Know that I must must pass this test
se que tengo que pasar esta prueba
So just pull the trigger
solo apretare el gatillo

Say a prayer to yourself
Di una oración por ti
He says close your eyes
el dice que cierres los ojos
Sometimes it helps
a veces ayuda
And then I get a scary thought
y luego tengo una idea aterradora
That he’s here means he’s never lost
que el esta aquí en medio que el nunca se perdió

And you can see my heart beating
Y tu puedes ver mi corazón latir
You can see it through my chest
puedes verlo a través de mi pecho
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
estoy aterrada pero no me marchare
Know that I must must pass this test
se que tengo que pasar esta prueba
So just pull the trigger
solo apretare el gatillo

As my life flashes before my eyes
Cuando mi vida parpadea ante mis ojos
I’m wondering will I ever see another sunrise?
me pregunto si volveré a ver el amanecer de nuevo
So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye
así que muchos no tendrán la oportunidad de decir adiós
But it’s too late too pick up the value of my life
pero es demasiado tarde para levantar el valor en mi vida.

And you can see my heart beating
Y tu puedes ver mi corazón latir
You can see it through my chest
puedes verlo a través de mi pecho
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
estoy aterrada pero no me marchare
Know that I must must pass this test
se que tengo que pasar esta prueba
So just pull the trigger
solo apretare el gatillo.
