Culture Week at CMI, Come in!


Tomorrow we are starting our culture week!!!
Every year CMI celebrates a culture week, which is a special celebration or event for us all. This event was born over ten years ago.
The culture week is going to be held in June this year sharing part of its calendar with the Science Exhibition at school. During the next week students will participate in a lot of competitions, such as; drawing posters for school, writing stories, and the kids in primary have created short comics or even recorded short films and interviews.
Last year, the topic was Light because 2015 was the Year of Light. I really liked that topic, but this year the main topic is the World of Cervantes and the other character is Shakespeare.
In addition, ESO students have done their best to sing their favourite songs, because next Tuesday afternoon a great show will be held: Let's Sing 3 - Sports Edition  where the best songs, which have passed into the Finals, will be tuned and shown in one of the funniest venues you can ever attend. Most teachers also dare to record a song and then students must find out whose song each one is.
Finally, on Friday morning, around midday, lots of awards will be delivered to recognise and acknowledge students´ efforts on different assigments and languages as for example: theatre, short stories, poetry, rap, photography, narrative essay, posters, etc. and, of course, Let's Sing awards, the most expected awards for ESO. They are my favourite because every single student in ESO at CMI sings one song, and after the English and Music teachers have graded them, a special jury must make a decision on finalists and winners in both categories 1/2 ESO and 3/4 ESO.
This is my favorite festival because it seems to me that everybody in school enjoys a great deal, even though I am also very excited and nervous for this year, because we, 4th ESO, organize the DIVERJOCS, which is another core  activity at CMI Culture Week, I think this is a wonderful traditional celebration at CMI that most students will never forget.

A TRIP IN TIME

If I could turn back to the past, I think I would go to the moment when I broke my right ankle. Somehow I guess that everything that has happened to me is because of destiny, but, actually, I am a bit confused about what to think or believe. If I could change the circumstances that took me to get a broken ankle, what would my future be like now? I can hardly know. Now I have already accepted that my ankle was broken and now I do not have any need to go back in time. So... What a question is that about changing your past!, 
If you do think you would change anything if you could travel back in time, tell me what it is or write a comment to ask for a piece of advice. Who knows? You may get an unexpected answer or solution to your biggest worries.
