Alan´s Ipod


My favourite piece of technology is the Ipod. The Ipod is a mp4 reproductor that has a lot of memory to save music, videos, photos, files, etc.
I bougth ipod to a cousin one year ago, it had 2 years of use, but it was in very good conditions like it was new.
I use it generally to hear music and to save my university´s files.
I use Ipod every day, when I use transantiago to go home and sometimes when I go to parties and people wants dancing music.
I like my Ipod beacause it can save 30 gigabytes of music or another files, so I can have with me all my favourite music and also it have a lot of options, and it`s very easy to use, is like a mini computer.
If I don`t have an Ipod in my life, oh my god!!, my life will be much more boring because music is a very important part of life. In my case music is associated with good moments, music ever could cheer up bad moments and thanks to Ipod I can have my music with me all the time.

Purim a crazy festivity

Purim is a jewish festivity that is celebrated every year in Adar 14th (the 6th month of jewish calendar equivalent to february or march of our calendary).
Purim is celebrated in Israel to commemorate a miracle about the salvation of jews to had been aniquilated by a king of Persia in 450 b.c.

The way to celebrate Purim is wearing costumes, seending gift to your friends, and in the nigth the common thing is to eat a great banquet and adult people could drink alcohol until to not distinguish between goodness and evil deed and it`s legal for that night.
One of the most important simbolls is Aman`s ears (Aman was the evil guy that persuade the king to kill jews) this is a kind of cookie made in this festivity to remember the miracle.

In Israel Purim is very important because it`s remember values like give and to make happy to the people celebrating the life.

If I have to say why Purim is my favourite festivity I can say that is very funny share with the friends wearing costumes and drinking a lot to celebrate the life´s happiness.
