Big Bang Theory

Big Bang Theory it's a TV series about four scientists and their neighbour. Sheldon and Leonard work in the Institute of Technology in California. Leonard falls for Penny from the start. Penny is his neighbour, she is an aspiring actress.   
Sheldon and Leonard are really intelligent and very good at their work. Their friends are Howards and Raj. They are complete geeks, because they are obssesed with superheroes, tecnology and science fiction. They loves thailandese food. 
Howard Wolowitz is an engineer of Jewish paradigm of a sixties film. Rajesh Koothrappali is an Indian national astrophysicist. 
In this TV series shows difficulties of all these scientists to interact with other people, especially with girls. It's really funny to see all of these problems that they have to talk to people that is out of their circle of friends and have a different character to them. All these people have a childhood trauma because their parents are really different from them or have lacked affection. The last aleteration mekes really crazy.

Description of a place

NY's city is a place on North America. I like this place because there are a lot of interesting buildings. I would like to travel there because I like flying over the Atlantic sea and get to know another continent and get to know their cultures.

This picture is from Ny city. In this foto you can see two main roads of this place. The roads are filled with modern and futuristic buldings, I think that it's quite amazing because there are a lot of colorful and striking billboards, morever they are really bright and the lights are flashing, and the buildings are very high. This picture seems active and noisy because there is a lot of people.
I think that this place smells damp because the road is wet. 

To sum up I think that this place is good to visit for a short time but not for a long time because cities are stressing. People like me who I living in small communities I imagine to visit NY would be overhelming; I think when you have lived in quiet places to change to such big city it wouldn't be very good. 


Corpus

"Corpus" is a traditional feast in a lot of places but I know Salamanca and the villages around celebrate. I know about this celebration because my parents are from Salamanca and now I will explain some things about this feast as they celebrate it. 
Corpus is a religious feast that people celebrate in summer, normally. In this celebration, the young people are organized in "peñas" with are groups of people that during this feat must live together in a old house. They must cook and act together. In this party people as a rule, drink a lot. 
Another typical thing are the "encierros" or running of the bulls. In the village draw a route where the bulls will run until the arrive to the bull ring. Normally, in the route, the men run infront of the bulls, I think that they are some crazy. 
And finally, in the bull ring, the bullfighters do "charlotadas". Charlotadas mean that many people jump into the bull ring and try to do the role of "torero" or bullfighter. After a while the bull get to the pens. Lukily in this feast finishes with processions of the Virgin Mary paraded round the village streest with maximum devotion.
Really this is not a good think for me because I hate seeing animals suffer and they a frightened by the hundereds of people.
The other celebrations are not too bad.

Gap Year

Now I want to talk about Gap Year, I had never heard about this topic until the other day in class. The teacher explained that the gap year is a tradition in England. She says that universities value this journeys, because they consider that after you have travelled you are more mature, in fact is really because you need to learn  to live alone, without perents, only with some friends, but not always. 
I would like to do a Gap year before to going university but, I think it would be really difficult to go back studying after a year idlying, in other words, without doing anything, but I like the idea of travelling, because you can meet a lot of new people. That is my opinion.
