Hello friends!

How are you? Sorry to go on vacation without saying anything,we had to leave very quickly jaja.

I’m here in a very expensive hotel, there’s an amazing pool, but what I like most is the sea. I don't think we have many days left when I find out I'll tell you.

Well, that’s all my news, the only thing is to tell them I’m fine and I’ll be back soon.

Well I hope you have a good time and see you soon.

Bye!

Sincerely Cesc

The Confinement

The New

Up to 13,000 deaths in Catalonia: this is an estimation by the health system of the worst case scenario for the coronavirus crisis. President Torra mentioned the projection in a rare parliamentary meeting via video link. He also said that if Spain doesn’t accept a total lockdown on Catalonia, confinement might be in place until June, with the peak of the crisis in late April.

25-3-2020

My Opinion

First of all, this news was posted on March 25th so the deaths must have gone up, and my opinion is that all that is happening is that we should have stopped beforehand to block Catalonia (Spain) much longer, and in the second opinion, if this lasts until June, many people will come to me and I will not stand.

Old videogames or modern videogames?

In the last 20 years the games have changed a lot, that is why today we will explain the differences, the advantages and the disdvantges that they have.

First we will start with old games, its advantages to me are that they were structured, the always had a story with a very good context, and its disadvantages are it that they have very poor graphics compared now and their jugability was quite difficult.

Well, now we will go to modern games, for me the new games are better than the old ones, the new games have better graphics and soundtracks, and their disadvantages are that their stories like the old ones are not so well done.

Well, for me, the best games are the new ones, but it is always good to play the old games to remember the old times.
