He married Anne Hathaway when he was 18 and he had 3 children with her. Then, he went to London to work as an actor and a writer. In the Globe Theatre, built in 1599, Shakespeare performed his firsts plays. In 1613 the theatre was destroyed, and in 1997 was built another one similar to the fisrt one.

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

- Learn languages. This summer I will not get on a job (because I'll be 16 on 16th of August, so I will be too young to work in the firsts months of summer), so I want to improve my english and french by my own.




- Go to the United Kingdom to learn english. This resolution is basically into the first one, because it's basically the same. But, go to the United Kingdom one or two weeks to learn will be so cool and I want to do it. I think it's a very nice experience to see how the english people really are, how they life and improve the english. 

- Getting my motorbike license. I want to do it because, for me, it will mean a lot. I want to do it in summer, because it's when I have free time to study and practice.






- Learn how to cook. I know how to cook basic things, but I want to learn more. This resolution also I want to do it in summer, because my mom doesn't work in summer, and she can teach me how to cook.





- Spend more time with my friends. I see my friends in the high school and, some of them, I often meet them. But I want to spend more time with them, like, all together, because this is the last grade that we'll do together, and I don't want to distance with my friends.





- Be happier. I considerate me a happy person, but I think that all of us can be happier, and that's a thing that it's very important to improve;)

BEST MOMENT OF MY HOLIDAYS

This christmas was full of homework. Specially, we had a lot of group projects, so we've got to meet all together, and it was so difficult. Also the group projects took me a lot of time to do my single homework and study for the exams and, in some moments, I've been very stressed.

But, obviously, I had a really good time with my family and friends. The present I liked the most was a new mobile phone. But, for me, the really important thing of Christmas is be with your family and enjoy it;) 

I think that the best moment of my holidays was when I went to celebrate the end of the year with my friends in Sant Pere. I had dinner on Mar's house, because my parents were with their friends and they couldn't bring me to the party. I had a great time with her and her family, specially when we ate the grapes and we celebrate all together the new year; and when Mar and me prepared ourselves for the party (like putting our dresses, putting on make up...)

The party was so great! Because a lot of people of the high school came to the party. That day everyone was so nice and we all were like friends, I felt so close to everyone, it was so pleasant. Also, the music was so good because the DJ put new songs and old songs that were so popular when I was little and that gave me a lot of memories. But, the most of the time the DJ was putting actual songs.

I chose that moment like the best moment of my holidays because it was diferent. I obviously had a great time with my family these days but the party was so cool, with a lot friends, and I think that it's when I enjoyed the most, just dancing with friends, celebrating the new year!
