Many people enjoy playing around with their computer or laptop. It's a great technology, so now you can do almost whatever you want, like watching TV, playing games, or even create your own software programs. Also, there are many operating systems ( OS ) like Microsoft Windows , Macintosh ( MAC ), and Linux. they are the most common ones. Im going to write about my experience when I shifted between MAC and microsoft windows.
At first, I used to deal with windows operating systems for a long time. The one I used it and enjoyed for a long time was windows xp, yet, to keep up with the technology we got to install the latest one which is windows vista. I heard many complains from people that vista was not good. After that I decided to shift and to use MAC OS instead of windows.
When I came to the US I was so eager to buy to a new laptop. When I really wanted to buy the MacBook ( apple laptop ) I started to save my money. I still remember that day, I was waiting for black friday to buy the laptop. It was also expensive but that was my chance to buy it with that price. I bought it from amazon.com, and when I recieved it, it was like a dream come true. the macbook is the best laptop I have ever had. I have tried Dell, Toshiba, and IBM. The MAC OS is so fast and responds quickly. you don't have so many crashs and errors, and you can enjoy the battery, it lasts for 5-6 hours. I couldn't enjoy my life more with macbook ! ;p

Everyone who travels to a new country has to have few difficulties in the beginning. For some, these difficulties could cause serious problems for them. For others, it could be fine to assimilate.

In my case, I had a hard time in christmas break. It was so long and I couldn't plan to schedule it perfectly. I got really bored for many days and I didn't know what to do. Having break is great idea, but for me I don't have that much of friends or relatives here so I didn't enjoy it very much.

For the next break, I'm going to plan it well in order to enjoy it. I believe that students should think ahead for their free time and vacations so that they know what they are going to do, or they would get bored. In conclusion, I want to encourage everyone to challenge these difficulties and to feel so ambitious so that in the end they will success.

REAL MADRID is my favorite team. It’s a Spanish soccer team. I really enjoy playing and watching soccer. It’s my favorite hobby, and I have other hobbies like chatting with friends, surfing the net and playing video games. At first I was only watching teams playing on TV and hearing from others talking about those teams. My brother was Real Madrid fan. He was watching each game they played. I was sitting with him and watching few games. By the time I became interesting in soccer and in Real Madrid.
Real Madrid is one of the greatest team ever. They have a great history. They are the best team in the 20 century. They had a time they got the most popular and best players in the world like Ronaldo, Zidane, D.Beckham, Figo, R.Carlos and many other players. But unfortunately they were not playing well; sometimes they play great and most of the times they play bad games. At that time they didn't have a good management. For a team like Real Madrid, you have to be careful choosing the managers and boarding stuff.
After a while I became more familiar with soccer and teams in Europe. I think Europe has the best teams and players. They really care about soccer. In my opinion, I think the best leagues in the world are England-Premier League, Spain-La Liga and Italy-Seria A. The best teams in England are Liver Pool, Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea; I like all of them except Chelsea. The best teams in Spain are Real Madrid and Barcelona, my favorite is Real Madrid. The best teams in Italy are AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus and Roma, I just like AC Milan.
I like the competition between all those teams. My favorite competition is the Champions League. It’s the most difficult one. Who wins it will be the champion of Europe. In conclusion, I hope Real Madrid win as much competitions as they can.

It's my first time to hear about this "SUPER BOWL". I didn't know what it meant. On Sunday, my brother and I were in the airport waiting for my cousin. He wanted to visit us here for tourism. While we were waiting, my brother told me that the super bowl was today. I asked him what was the super bowl ?. Then he explained it to me. That it's the final game and who wins would be the champion. When my cousin arrived, he was so tired and hungry. At first we went to our apartment to take a rest. After that we went to have a lunch in Brea DownTown. We enjoyed our lunch, then we went to the block. I saw few guys wearing this football stuff. We entered a football shop and they were watching the game. Then, almost each shop we entered was watching that game. I didn't care about that game because I knew nothing about football. That was my experience on super bowl game.
