Advantages/disadvantages of having/using a students’ blog

In general, a blog is a page on the Internet when people talk about their life or about every subject they like. For example, on the Internet there are lots of blogs that speak about famous people. Their fans create these blogs.
Normally, a students’ blog is a page on the Internet that students and teachers use to talk about subjects that they learn or discuss in the classroom and post all kind of curious things.
In my opinion, having a students’ blog is not bad, on the contrary, it’s a very good choice, because we learn many new things and learn how to work with new technologies. But, sometimes, when we don’t know how to use the blog we may run some risks, because there are evil people that may use the blog for doing many things that are not good to us.
The main advantage of having/using a students’ blog is to learn a variety of subjects that we learn in classroom or that we read in a book or that we watch on TV. The new things that we learn, we post in the blog for other students or other people to read and to learn, too.
One point of view in favour of having/using a students’ blog is that we know new people.
Another advantage of having/using a students’ blog is that we use the new technologies and improve our knowledge.
The main disadvantage of having/using a students’ blog is that some people watch the blog and may do bad things, for example: blackmail or to arrange meetings and then to abuse people sexually. This is very dangerous, because we don’t ever appoint meetings on the Internet with people that we don’t know.
In conclusion, if we decide to have/to use a blog we have to be responsible and to know the dangers, but the decision of having/using a blog is ours.

TV and it's importance to me

I can say that I’m a selective viewer but it doesn’t mean that I’ve got my eyes glued to the screen.
Now I don’t watch TV very much, I used to watch TV a lot but the quality of TV programmes is decreasing and I prefer to spend my time doing other things like listening to music( my addiction, for me a day without listening to music is like rehab, so I’m not so happy in those days, it’s especially bad when I have to study hard and I can’t really listen to music because I know that I’ll spend hours doing it and I won’t study!), practising guitar ( play or try to play Scorpions music, but it would be better if I had an electric guitar, but not e-zipy label because I played one of those and the neck was very small and when you try to tune it, the string breaks, so you can see it’s not a very good guitar, you can go to Matthias Jabs store and buy a good one for me!), writing, go to the Internet (another addiction) and annoy someone when I’m really bored. Now back to the subject, I really like to watch “Little Britain” when it’s on TV (it’s the best sitcom ever made, funny characters like Vicky Pollard, Anne, Daffyd Thomas provide you a good time), “The Catherine Tate Show” is also very good, the old woman is really funny. There are many international series that I also like to watch like CSI, House, Prison Break,… And about soaps, I like the Brazilian ones more but now I’m not following any. TV is not so important in my life, maybe the Internet and radio have a more important role in my amusement and TV is not that good to deserve my entire time but still I like to watch it when the programmes are good (Candid Camera is good too)and interesting.
