HOLIDAYS IN BARDULIA



HOLIDAYS IN BARDULIA

“Holidays in Bardulia” is a music festival of punk oi music style. Last Saturday was the 7th edition of this festival. Here are some of the groups that played in the festival:
Herri Guda which is composed by 5 young members from Beasain (Gipuzkoa). They are 15 and 16 years old.
Birracel was the smallest group because they are only 3. They are from Orereta (Gipuzkoa).
La escoria abunda was another group. They are from Sakana and they are 4, but they had problems and they didn’t play.
Material Rchazado was another group which is composed by 5 members from Arrasate.
Doubling Boys is a group from Hernani (Gipuzkoa). They are 5 but the bassist was ill, so the guitarist had to play the bass. The guitarist had a fissure in his arm, so they only played 4 songs. When they finished the concert, they went to a local bar near the gaztetxe, where some people from Lekeitio hit the man who played the bass. They hit him in the face and a consequence of that was that he was wounded under the eye. Because of that, he got a bruise in his eye. Today, we don’t know the reason of that fight; maybe they were the same people that hit the band Des-kontrol (because they were Nazis).
Hell beer boys, a group of 4 members from Beasain (Gipuzkoa). In my opinion this was one of the best concerts of the festival.
The concert of Aggressive Conbat was also very good with lots of people. They are from Arrasate and they are  4 members.
The last group was Orreaga 778. They are from Hernani and AƱorga.
  





Herri guda is a very young band and in my opinion if they work hard, they will be very good in the future. They had a problem in the concert because the electricity went off.
The worst group was Birracel because I don’t like them. Material Rechazado was the 3rd one playing. I liked them, they sounded cool. Doubling boy was the next band, I knew them before the concert but I had never seen them live and I liked them in the 4 songs they played.
I knew Hell beer boys and Doubling boys and I liked them, but in my opinion Hell beer boys were better than Doubling boys. Aggressive combat were penultimate. I had never heard them before and I liked them a lot. Orreaga 778 were the last ones, it is my favourite Basque band. Their concert was good but electricity went off twice and the guitarist broke one chord of his guitar, so he had to change it.

The festival in general was very good and next year, if I can, I will go again! I recommend this festival if you like this kind of music!

TXILLIDA LEKU: A perfect combination of art and nature for you to discover.

Hi! I suppose that you have enjoyed Christmas as much as I have, but now I have to go back work. Life is tough!
I am going to start this year with an article about Txilida leku.
Txillida leku, is a large area of gardens and woodland and a renovated farmhouse, where the sculptor Eduardo Chillida Juantegia distributed a large sample of his work. It is located in Hernani (Gipuzkoa) and it is a great place to visit for those tourists who want to discover The Basque Country.

Txillida Leku offers a combination of scupture and art by the Basque sculptor Eduardo Chillida in natural surroundings. It is amazing to enjoy art while walking in the gree fields. The museum also has a farmhouse wich it has been renewed.



The sculptor, as I said before, was called Eduardo Chillida. He was born in San Sebastian the 10th of january in 1924 and he died in the 19th of august in 2002. At the age oh 18 he started studing at the School of Architecture at the Polytechnic University of Madrid but some years later he quit the archictecture to play football. He played for the Real Sociendad football team as a goalkeeper but he had an injury and he had to quit playing football and started with his real vocation, the archictecture.

He emigrated to Paris and he started designing sculptures with plaster. In 1950 he married with Pilar Belzunce in Donosti. After, they went to Paris to live. They had 8 children.

On August, 2002 he died in his house in igeldo in San Sebastian.


If you like the art and the nature you can't loose the oportunity to visit TXILLIDA LEKU!

Christmas

Hi, I'm going to speak about Christmas traditions in some parts of the world. Almost all the countries have their own christmas traditions, but I will try to compare christmas traditions in the Basque country and in China.

In the Basque Country, they decorate streets and trees with ligths  in most towns and cities. Olentzero is king on Christmas eve, not Santa Claus. The olentzero, brings the presents to the Basque children but in order to get presents you have to be a good child. If you are not, the olentzero will bring you coal. The olentzero will leave the presents you asked for in the shoe that you put near the christmas tree. Olentzero is a old miner man who spends his free time making toys for the chlidren. 



The olentzero legend says that one day while a house was burning olentzero saw it and, very bravely, tried to  rescue the kids that were inside. During the rescue olentzero lost his life but he recued all the children that were inside the burning house.
Another Basque tradition is for
the chlidren to go from house to house singing carols in exchange  for money or food on the 24th of December. Also, on the 24th, people gather to  welcome  the Olentzero. In Tolosa the olentzero comes from the mountain but in other places, it comes from the sea or the river. They  welcome olentzero on the 24th. In that welcome, the olentzero speaks with the children and they tell the olentzero what they want for Christmas. On Christmas Eve  in most cases,  families get together to have dinner in the evening. On the 25th all the children open their presents and  go to the street to play with them. Some Basque children also believe in the Three Magi as the characters that bring them presents during the holidays.

But, what about a Country like China?

Not everybody celebrates Christmas in China. China is a Communist country and because of that religious festivities are not celebrated. The people that do celebrate Christmas celebrate it by lighting their houses with beautiful paper lanterns and decorating their Christmas trees,which they call them "Trees of Light." Chinese children, hang muslim stokings in the chimney or in the trees hopping that Santa Claus will bring them presents. They call Santa: Dun Che Lao Ren (dwyn-chuh-lau-oh-run) which means "Christmas Old Man."  But, as I said
 before, most  Chinese people are not Christian. That is the reason why  the most important festivity is the Chinese new year that takes place  the end of January. Nowadays, it is called "Spring Festival". During this festivity  the children receive new clothes, eat luxurious meals and  receive new toys.





Have a happy new year! And enjoy your holidays the best that you can!

See you soon!

THE MOST IMPORTANT INVENTIONS.



From my point of view, the two most important inventions are:
The invention of the ipod and the invention Internet.
To start my article, I’m going to speak about the ipod.
The ipod was invented the 23 October in 2001 ipod is a brand of portable media players designed by Apple. There are 4 different type of ipod:

The ipod shuffle, the ipod nano, the ipod cassic and the ipod touch.



To start, I’m going to explain the ipod shuffle;
The ipod shuffle, is the smallest ipod. It is very easy to manage because all that you have to do is to click on the auricular were there is to pass the song or to stop it. It didn't have a screen but that is not a problem because with the new technique that with a voice, the ipod told you what song you are listening to and who interprets. He spoke you in 20 different languages. The capacity you have two options, 2 gb or 4gb.




 Continuing, I’m going to explain the ipod nano.  There are two models. There are in different colour and with a capacity of 8 gb and 16 gb.  Recently apple did ipod nano with a camera. In my opinion, the camera is not necessary. The ipod is for listen music and nothing else. In this model there are 5 generations. The generations are when the ipod change de size, the scream or some program.



   Now, I’m going to speak about the ipod classic. In my opinion, is the best ipod that exsist. It has a capacity of 160 gb more than some computers, that's incredible. Regarding the colours, it has the same of the other ipod.  The scream, isn't very small. There are 6 generation in this ipod 1 more than in the nano. This ipod can read document’s like a PC. Resuming, I’m will say that this ipod is like a PC is worse than it but is fantastic.








 To finish with the ipod, I’ going to explain the only ipod that is tactile. You can connect to internet with WI-FI. The capacity of this ipod is of 32gb or 64gb. Also, the ipod touch of the 2nd generation has 8gb. This is the only ipod that has a speaker. You have different application in this ipod like calculator, weather, mail...and also, you can download applications from internet.









The second invention that I'm going to explain is the television (TV). The TV is a widely used for transmit and receive moving images.  The first TV was invented a little bit before the invention of the telephone in 1878 more o less. Before, the images were seen in black and white, but nowadays, with all the technology that we have, we can watch that images in colour and in high quality. Nowadays we have one or two TV's in per house but before, only the rich ones can have a TV in their houses. In 70's people start using video cassettes, later they used the DVD and nowadays we use the blue ray. Comparing with the TV's that we have before, the TV of nowadays, are tremendous but what TV's we are going to have in the future?
