Opinions about abuse in Tuenti

Thank you for participating and giving your opinion(s) about abuse in Tuenti! The students from 1º A agreed that they should be very careful with the things they publish there, especially those related to posting photos taken without permission and writing comments to make a fool of them. They all said they wouldn´t like to see that happen to any of their relatives or good friends because it certainly must hurt their feelings. Also that they suppose that taking a photo in class and later making a fool of a classmate can have serious consequences if they are caught. We also had time to mention another big danger that new technologies can cause, which is copying things from the Internet. But we´ll talk about that in more detail in the future... now WE ARE OFF! WE HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR SUMMER HOLIDAYS ANYWHERE YOU GO. BUT DON´T FORGET US. IN SEPTEMBER WE´LL BE BACK!!!!! HAPPY SUMMER HOLIDAYS !!!!

Now I know what FEAR is...

I had never stopped to think what FEAR really was like. I think I wouldn´t have known how to explain what it is before, because although I have always been a very scary person, I knew that the strange noises I heard at night or the horror stories I loved reading didn´t really scare me; they only accelerated the beat of my heart. But now I can tell and explain perfectly well what it is and how you feel.

Everything started one late friday evening. My friends and I left the school thinking about our summer holidays and all the things we were going to do. But it was time to celebrate first, so we decided to go to the lake for a swim. As soon as we arrived, all of us went into the water. It was still hot and sunny and there was a nice smell of dry grass and flowers in the air. I went out of the water and lay on my towel. I closed my eyes and listened to the birds; I was feeling great! I started to imagine what the rest of my holidays would be like, so many plans... It was getting dark, so my friends came to tell me they were leaving. I was feeling so good that I told them to start without me; that I would catch them up in a couple of minutes.
I just can´t remember how long I remained there alone; no more than two minutes really when, suddenly, I felt someone grab my feet and hands and take me into a car. I stayed in the car for a long time, but finally they took me out and left me in a room tied to a chair. I tried to relax, thinking that it was one of my friends´jokes, but it wasn´t...

Two weeks had already gone and I continued in that room; it was getting harder and harder. I remembered then that I liked imagining things. "This will help me not to go crazy", I thought. I closed my eyes and imagined I was escaping, that I could find my friends and return home... All seemed so real that when I realized that everything was false, I started to cry.

Now I continue here in my prison, tied, alone... Now I know what FEAR is: it is not to see your parents, relatives, friends,... to know that you are alone and that for a long, long time you will probably continue like that.

Vicky is a fan of The Jonas Brothers and you??

THE JONAS BROTHERS

The Jonas Brothers are three teenage brothers from Wyckoff, New Jersey, that form an American pop band. The three members are: Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas. They became famous in Disney Channel thanks to Nick (it´s a long story...). And now they are very famous all around the world; children love them and teenagers and some adults, too!
They began this revolution when Avril Lavigne had a world tour and The Jonas were the supporting artists. Then they published their first single: "It´s about time" and later "A little bit longer", which was really successful. Last year they released a film titled: "Camp Rock", especially for teenagers. The film was about many people who wanted to be superstars. The actors and actresses were: Demi Lovato, Joe Jonas, Alison Stoner, Meghan Martin, Nick and Kevin Jonas and other people. This film was a box office success and the actors and actresses got very good reviews, too. Now the Jonas brothers are going to have a tour around the world and they are also going to come to Spain. They are coming to Madrid and Bilbao! So HURRY UP to buy the tickets (if you are a fan) because they will sell out very fast!!!
