GENERAL STRIKE IS IT WORTH?

Yesterday, 29th of March in Spain, all the unions like UGT and CCOO organised a General Strike. They went out to the streets of the main cities to attempt to claim a negotiation of the new Labour Reform that the government of Rajoy declared.

Official poster of the strike where it says:
"No to labour reform of cheap layoffs",
"General Strike, I go."
(29th of March of 2012).

The realization of this General Strike was good because people wanted to express themselves because they are against this reform. For many people this hurts them a lot because they can’t have a fixed and stable work or simply remain unemployed. Also for the flexibility that employers may have with the layoffs.

On the other hand, the strike hasn’t been the best decision because from the beginning the government said that 
nothing would make them take a step back to rectify any substantial point of the new reform.

Thus, we can conclude that the people had their reasons to manifest but haven’t had desired success because the government had already given an answer before the Strike, saying it wouldn’t change his opinion in no time.

See you soon!

THAT'S ME!

Hello to everybody!

Picture of a piano.

My name is Miriam and I’m 18 years old. I was born in Granollers, Catalonia, the 24th of March of 1994. I’m in the last course of the High School and I’m studying the scientific modality. The last saturday, 24th of March was my birthday and I did 18 years. At midday, my parents prepared a lunch with my family for celebrate it. At night, also, my parents prepared for me a party in my house with my friends. I was too nervous but finally that day has become one of the best of my life.

                                                                                           

My hobbies are listen music, read books and also spend time with my friends. The kinds of music that I most love are pop, house and piano songs. When I listen to songs of piano I relax my mind or I just sleep. I play the piano since 3 years ago and I love it. For me the moment that I play the piano is the best to forget the world for a moment and it filled me.

Every weekend of the winter I go to la Cerdanya, Catalonia, to go to ski. The last year I did the first course to become a teacher of ski and nowadays I’m an instructor of ski.

In the future I want to study in the University the Infirmary career. What I want to do in my life is to help the people that need the help of the others. It’s because of that, that I want to be a nurse.

I hope you like my blog!! :)

See you soon!
