My favorite poet is Jim Morrison, the singer of the band The Doors.
Jim Morrison is born the December 8, 1943 and died the July 3, 1971. He was the author of several books of poetry and lyricist of The Doors, who had big success.
Jim wrote psychedelic style of lyrics for the band's songs and for himself, but his poetry wasn't understood by his audience, who only saw a drugged man. His poetry was really philosophic, but nobody never understood Jim. Jim Morrison died by a heart attack, probably caused by an overdose.

Copenhagen
Copenhagen is the 15th UN summit on climates changes who brings a record of at least 65 heads of state. It was held in Copenhagen (Denmark), from 7 to 18 December 2009. The objectives are to limit and reduce CO2 emissions to keep any temperature increases to below 2°C. Many leaders of industrialised countries were ready to take good decisions to decrease CO2 emissions. But, our leader, Stephen Harper wasn't so ambitious to follow the exemples of the others leaders and did nothing good at Copenhagen! I think that the environment should be our first preoccupation! The time is running, and the earth needs our help!

My favorite movie
My favorite movie is realised by one of my best music band, Pink Floyd. It's called, The Wall.
The movie is inspired by the album The Wall by Pink Floyd and contains most of the songs of the album. The story is about a rock star who encounters obstacles throughout his life like his father's death, abuse from his schoolteachers, overprotective mother and the desertion of his wife.
I love this movie because it represents how someone can build a wall between him and the society with all the problems that he met in the past.
I recommend it to all Pink Floyd's fans and those who love psychologic movies.

My passion
Since I was young, I played many instuments like guitar, flute, trombone, saxophone.
But one day, I decided to play a new instrument that I never thought before, the drums.
Since this time, I play every day and I learn new tricks every weeks.
I love this instrument because I can develop my concentration and my sense of rhythm.
A drum is normally composed of one bass drum, snare, cymbals, toms, floor toms, hi-hat and more.
This instument can be personalized according the music style of the drummer like rock, jazz, blues, etc.
Finally, I think that everyone should play an instrument because it's good for the concentration and creates perseverance.

The band consists of four musicians : John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr.

The Beatles changed the world of music with their many successful albums.
The progression of their musical genres from their albums is really interesting.
They experimented and innovated the music during their studio years.

A place to see
If I have the chance, the place that I would like to see is Seattle.
Why? Here are my answers.
First, Seattle is the bigger city of the northwestern United States. But what is very interresting for me is that Seattle is also known as the birthplace of grunge music. Jimi Hendrix, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, all these big names are from this city and I think that if I go to Seattle, maybe I will find some inspiration.
Secondly, there's many cultural activities like museums, festivals, poetry contest. But I prefer the museums, specifically the Experience Music Project of Seattle. It's a rock 'n' roll museum in honor of Jimi Hendrix and it contains a concert hall that I want to see.
Finally, I will visit the first Starbucks Coffee, the larger multinational chain of coffee shops, and the Space Needle, a popular tower who's the landmark of the city.

New Activity in Physical Education Classes
Yoga is a sport that's becoming really popular. This is because of the many benefits it provides. I think that all this advantages can help students of secondairy school. But the question is, does it work?
Yoga is a real source of calm and peace. It brings benefits physically, mentally, and spiritually. A better concentration, better health and greater cardiovascular endurance and better evacuation of stress put students in a better learning environment. All this will increase the potential evolution of students just practicing state of peace and calm.
And now, there's another benefit too, no equipment is needed! You can practise this activity everywhere! The schools will not have to pay large sums for Yoga, so why would not it have a place if it is not about money?
Conclusion, nobody can say that yoga is not a good idea to introduce new sport in our schools. This sport brings to many benefits to help students at school and at home.
