The benefits of computer games.

My cousin Juan is a huge video game fan, so much so, that he invested big part of his earnest to get a proper computer, keyboard, headphones and speakers. However, my aunt usually criticizes him because she thinks he doesn’t do anything productive with his life. Most of her arguments focus on saying that he will not achieve a proper social life all day long playing in his rooms. She also thinks, that his games bring nothing to his learning process. Nevertheless, my aunt’s prejudices are nothing like the reality lived by my cousin. On the contrary, on the online games that he plays, Juan has other type of interactions every day. He has gaming friends and also, he hangs out often with them and his college friends. In addition, playing computer games he acquired a fluid English level and the basics of French. For all these reasons computers games actually provides social and languages skills; which are positive factors that gives to their benefits that they can apply to real situations.

First of all, computer games provide social and cooperation skills to their users. Because multiplayer games such as “League of legends” or “World of Warcraft” become virtual social communities; where decisions need to be made quickly about whom to trust or reject and how to lead a group. In addition, “people who play video games, even if they are violent, that encourage cooperation are more likely to be helpful to others while gaming than those who play the same games competitively” (American Psychologist, 2013). Nowadays, more than 70 percent of gamers play with a friend and millions of people worldwide participate in massive virtual worlds.  All of the above indicates that gamers aren’t social distancing, they a different type of social dynamics which are valuable.

Furthermore, computer games can also provide or improve language skills while playing. To begin with, a lot of computer games are not in the native language of the player, such as Spanish in the big part of the cases. For that, gamers need to adapt themselves to keep playing, which actually is really inspiring, because they keep motivated. Meanwhile, they are learning a basic level of the language. As an example, my cousin could learn the basics of English playing “Minecraft”. He achieved that trying to understand the next missions, the material that he had to find, etc. With the pass of the times and different types of games he’s now a B2 certificated. Taking all these in account, we could say that games are meaningful learning spaces, since gamers are inspired to learn while playing.

However, computer games can also be time consuming for their users if they do not a correct use of these. For example, my cousin he used to be obsessed with his computer games, to the extent that it affected their physical activity. Because, he used to come home from school and connect to spend hours without getting out of that seat. Sometimes he also used to forget his schoolwork when he was immersed in his games. Nevertheless, he began to use them more responsibly as he grew older, showing that anything used in excess is harmful.

Computer games, have their pros and crontas and depending in the way they are going to be used the effects will be seen on the players.But we should not close our minds to the positive possibilities that games can provide us. Such as new social abilities and language skills. Computer games are actually an amazing tool to generate an incentive for many people and provide knowledge. We just have to know how to use them, be responsible and open to learn something new while having fun.

I don’t know which derby writting is this one, but I certainly is the shortest but the most honest at the same time.

This dong makes feel under of a big cloud of hopeless, even is a call to save our planet it doesn’t stop be disillusional all the horrible things that the human being had done to ours ecosystem. Because Michaels words is a obvious message that we have been ignoring the advertences to wake up and make a change. A lot of years have passed already, in we started to be more conscientious, but it’s still a lot of way to walk.

Just wake up everyone, someday it’s going to be to late to act and safe our lives, this is heartbreaking… be simply spectators of ours planet deaths.

This is my final draft of my paragraph:

Euthanasia: the patient decision.

Euthanasia is a controversial topic for legislatures around the world if should be legal and normalised. Also, the main question that Surrounds this issue is: who has the decision to appeal to this process? Is it the government or the family? This text is dedicated to defend why euthanasia is a right procedure and why should be up the patient. First, definition of euthanasia is an intentionally helping a person commit suicide by providing drugs for self-administration; at that person’s voluntary and competent request. What does this mean? the patient, who is suffering from an incurable and painful disease, takes the decision to end his own life. However, in many countries, such as the UK, it is illegal to assist anyone in killing themselves for health. This shouldn’t be like that, because even in his or her last moments the patient is living, even they have rights to decide how reduce their pain. Second, a lot of supporters of voluntary euthanasia believe that everyone has the right to control their own body and life, and should be allow to decide at what time, and in which manner they will die. Finally, euthanasia is a professional assistance, that provides care and worries for the patient. For all those reasons, is clear that euthanasia is a process which is focused on helping and relieving the patient from pain. Which means is just for good reasons, is not murder, is medicine guides to respect a life in their last moments.

My sweet Maria,

I should appreciate you more in those beautiful times, when you were full of joy and happines. I really miss you in my darkness nights, looking forward to give a hug and tell you «I love you».

I’d like to protect you from all the events you will have to face, because they’re going to be hard, they’re going to make you fell sad and useless. But, don’t worry, even if you feel like you’re not brave enough in the future it’ll all be just a bad memory. And you’ll be stronger than you ever imagined, I’m you I can tell.

Just let me remember you this essential skills, do not stop writing, do not stop being as funny as you are, do not stop that intense love that you feel for your mother. Still using those fantasy dresses, they’re awesome. Believe that you can flye, because your dreams are going to come true. My sweet little girl, do not let you affect, be you. I just learn how to love you… forgive me princess, forgive me.

Love you.

The next words are dedicated to defend why Euthanasia should be up the patience . First, definition of Euthanasia is and intentionally helping a person commit suicide by providing drugs for self-administration; at that person’s voluntary and competent request. What does this mean? that the patience which is suffering takes the decision to end with his ill.   However, in many countries, such as the UK, it is illegal to assist anyone in killing themselves for health. This shouldn’t be like that, because even in his or her last moments the patience is living, and they have rights to decide how reduce the pain. Second, a lot supporters of voluntary euthanasia believe that everyone has the right to control their body and life, and should be free to decide at what time, and in which manner they will die. Finally, is a professional assistance, that provides care and worries for the patience.  

Ideas or process of construction:

Do you believe euthanasia (assisted suicide) is right? 

A doctor is allowed by law to end a person’s life by a painless means, as long as the patient and their family agree.

“Intentionally helping a person commit suicide by providing drugs for self-administration, at that person’s voluntary and competent request.”

The right of a competent, terminally ill person to avoid excruciating pain and embrace a timely and dignified death bears the sanction of history and is implicit in the concept of ordered liberty.

he exercise of this right is as central to personal autonomy and bodily integrity as rights safeguarded by this Court’s decisions relating to marriage, family relationships, procreation, contraception, child rearing and the refusal or termination of life-saving medical treatment.

It would be hard for me to construct addressing the suffering of a terminally ill patient as a harm. It is an obligation.

This is my description from my mom’s perspective

She should have repeated the Icfes but well… thanks to God that my daughter was accepted in the prestigous Icesi. I could no be more proude than already I am, However that’s not enough. Now, she spends so muhc time there… how fastidious, I miss her. Probably she only stays there because of her new boyfriend.

Nevertheless, I have to focus on the good things: she’s part of two dance groups, so talented. Also, she’s so clever. But, as always, she doens’t appreaciate what we do for her, sometimes she’s so stupid more than her inteligence, and also selfish and boring… she doesn’t seems as my daughter.

It’s necessary to say that she’s so akward, she’s not the big sister that I expected for her litlle sister. So strange… she should be a better one.
