How I use the Internet!

Hello everybody, today I want to tell you how I use the Internet!

Internet isn't very important for me, because I'm not very often there.
I just use it for school and sometimes to chat with friends and to have a look who's playing the next soccer match.
In school I use it for presentations and for my blog.
I am honest from time to time I'm sitting in front of my laptop and I watch a film or listen to music.
When I'm not at home and I want to know something about a person for example, I use my mobile phone for it.
I don't like computer games, because I think they are stupid.


That's all for today.

St. Patrick's Day

Hello everybody and welcome to my short story about St. Patrick's Day.
Here are some facts about this day.....


First of all, St. Patrick's Day is on 17th March, this day is the memory day of Patrick, who was the first missionary in Ireland.
He is a saint patron of Ireland.
It's celebrated in Ireland, North-Ireland, Labrador and Newfoundland.
On St. Patrick's Day the irish people became crazy, for example they dye their beer green.
On this day people wear green clothes and there are parades and a lot of activites on the street.

I think St. Patrick's Day is a very nice day, because people have a reason to drink and to celebrate.

Finally I got a very nice video for you:

Online Shopping

Online shopping

Hi everybody! ;-)

I have heard an interview on the radio and it was about online shopping and I thought you might be interested because online shopping gets very popular.

Basically what it said were some facts about online shopping.
Ann, who speaks in the interview, thought that the retailers don't make any money and the most people enjoy "normal" shopping with theire family or friends.
This facts say that the psychology of Internet shopping is wrong.
Of course there are some good facts about ut, for example it is easy and very comfortable to shop on the Internet.

A few online shops gone bankrupt, because no one bought the things which the shop sold.
So if they don't have customers they can't earn money.

The online banking, for example,  is a very successful shop on the Internet. It's growing 80 % a year in Europe.
80 % of EasyJet tickets are ordered online, so the budget airlines also grow a lot.


Finally my question to you is, have you ever bought things online?

Summery of Obama's Speech

Hello everybody!!


I was watching a video the other day on the internet and it was about Barack Obama and  I thought you might be interested because it was his first speech after the election.
Basically what he said was that he wants to thank all the electors but he also said that he will change some things in the USA.
For example the healthsystem, which he want to improve.

What surprised me most was the way he talked, because he talked very powerful and with lots of emotions. In contrast to Austria where the politician talk like they fall asleep immediately.


I also agree with what he said about the immigrants that they are also allowed to go to school.
I wasn't aware of the fact that America has so many debts.


Yours Alex ;-)

Barack Obama's Speech

Hello everybody, today I want to talk about Obamas speech.

He has some very good and helpful ideas, for example Obama wants to improve the health system, because every time you go to the doctor you have to pay. So if you are ill and poor you can’t go to a doctor. But that’s unfair, because there is a different between poor and rich and that shouldn’t!!.

He also wants to have a new school system for immigrant. Because if you are an immigrant now you are not allowed to go to school and learn english.

Obama said that all the people in the US are one big family so he really wants to help them.

He wants to reduce the debts, but this isn’t easy.

All in all I’m happy that Obama ist he old and new president oft he US, he gives every people a hope and a second chance if they need it.

Good bye.

Yours Alex ;)

My opinion to Becky's school

I think Becky's school sounds quite good.
They start school at 9 am., so they can sleep longer.
I also like the "Monday assemblies".
Double lessons aren't my cup of tea, so in this point I would enjoy Becky's timetable.
Becky doesn't have regular tests, they have end-of-year exams in Maths and English. 
Their grades depend on coursework, homework and project all over the year.

In my oponion, my school isn't as good as Becky's, but 50 minutes lessons are much better than 60 minutes lessons.
I don't like the end-of-year exam because if you fail there, you can't improve your mark.
In my school we have a lot of interesting subjects.

All in all I like my school and my timetable.
