Following Isabel's motto (What a beautiful life!) and, as a homage to U2, it is delightful to watch our 1-year-old (and a few months) blog slowly growing with students' texts and creative work. I hope to see more of this in the next months, especially from the 1st year students and also in Spanish.
Another complementary activity would be to comment on these posts.
Come on people, loosen up!

Poem on the five senses
It’s raining outside
And I’m in this bed thinking about you
Touching your white soft skin
Devouring your mouth
Smelling your essence
And hearing that you love me
Tonight we saw the stars together
When I woke up, you weren’t there
I felt empty
I’m walking on the street and smelling the wet earth after raining
And feel the fresh air in my face
I still remember last night
Kissing your lips and touching your body
Your beautiful eyes
Your sexy smile
And all the sunset together
But it’s time to move on
And forget about you

A family affair
I was born on the 28th of June in 1990 at São Marcos Hospital in Braga. Since then I have been living with my parents in that northern Portuguese city called Braga. My family’s house is located in Navarra, a small village only 10 short minutes from the city center.
I belong to a simple and small family, constituted by three elements, Gorete and Pedro, my parents, and I. Since ever that we have a worthy relationship. However, as all families, we have got some tiny and easily-solved problems. My parents always support my decisions and let me have my space to grow up. Although sometimes their advice goes in a different direction from my own decisions, I have to respect that. I know that they only wish me the best.
My mother, Gorete, is always trying to protect me, she is an over-protective mom. I know that with her I can talk about everything, and when I say everything it’s really everything. In spite of that fact, I only do it with Pedro, my father. I don’t know why, maybe it’s because we are both male and I feel more comfortable with him. He is constantly giving me advice and telling me stories about his youth, when he was my age.
In my opinion, despite the fact that we are a three-element family, I think that we are a normal and typical family when compared with the rest of my country. Most families in Portugal have between two and three children.
To be honest, I can say that my parents were and are one of the central pillars of the person that I’m today, without them I would be nothing.

My family
Hello everybody!
I am married, with three children, two boys and a girl. I´m very happy, because we are so close, we have beautiful moments together. We live in a small town, which is very quiet and warm. My husband loves going to the farm when he has some free time, there he plants all type of greenery, he loves his work, but also our village. I love the village too, it´s a place where we can have peace, here we can “be free”, do what we like, walk, stay in the garden taking care of the flowers, among other things. It´s very important to our family to stay in contact with nature, the plants, the animals and all that beautiful picture of heaven that makes everyone feel like flying in the clouds.
We live moments of real magic. In my opinion we are the typical family in our country, because here we work in the city and then the weekends are spent in the village working the farm, feeding the farm animals and having a good time, enjoying the most important in our lives, the moments with our loved ones.
It´s a beautiful life!
