My first impressions




My first foreign friend:                                     When i didn't know argentins very well i thought they were mean and self-centered, but when i was on vacation, the recent past summer, me and my family went to a cruise-trip through brasil, but starting from argentina, so most of the passengers would be argentins. The nights at the ship were very funny, all young people gathered at the disco, so everyone became friends with everyone. I became very good friends with a argentinian, her name is rocio, she was like my sister at the ship, she was very nice and  very funny. In those two weeks I spent with her, she became a very important person for me, in fact, we still talking by facebook or skype.


My first day on the Mackay School:
I knew the school from before, when I came here to do the admission test, so the size of the school did'nt surprise me. I didn't know anyone, and I was ashamed to walk alone by the school, so I told my mom to accompany me to my classroom that in that time was the 305. I calmed down a bit when I saw the same guy that did the admission test the same day I did it, because we became friends that day, and fortunately, he was on the same class with  Miss Carla Chavez as form teacher. He looked very ashamed and concerned, but when he saw me, he felt happy, the same as me. We spent the whole day together, we talked about how happy we were because of being together. We did friends together too... everything was right until the classes of English, I was very worried because I didn't speak nothing of english at that time, but fortunately teacher helped me through the years.




My first trip to another country:
I had like four years old when my parents decide to go to Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was my first travel by plane so I guess that I surely cried. I don't remember a lot about my first trip, but my family took photos and filmed everything, videos and photos i say about two years ago. We went to a theme park, but I don't remember the name of it; We also went to a water-scooter show, in which I cries a lot because of the noise, and because there was a man dressed up like a devil clown, very scary for any baby under 5 years old. My father decided to go to Uruguay too, but not in airplane... He decides to go ther by ship, we took a small ship and spent 2 hours at it. What about Uruguay? I don't remember nothing about it

Cyberbullying

What is cyberbullying, exactly?

"Cyberbullying" is when a child, preteen or teen is tormented, threatened, harassed, humiliated, embarrassed, or otherwise targeted by any other child(teen or preteen) using the internet, interactive and digital technologies or mobile phones. Once adults become involved it's simply called cyber-harassment. 

Why it's related to ethics?

"Ethic is a part of philosophy that includes the study of morality , virtue happiness and good living. Devoted to the study of human actions."

So it's simple, when we make cyberbulling, we are not considering virtue and values, so we are making an "un-ethical" action.

The 3 qualities i have choosen are: comunicators, thinkers and complete. First i think the  most important qualitie that we, as ib learners, need to have, is to be a good comunicator, in each class we had expressed our thinkings, wihtout fear that our thinking is wrong. In the other hand, to express what we think, we have to be good thinkers, so we can realize what we really think and don`t using another's ideas. Picking up the point         " don't use another's ideas" we have to be complete, the student's have to be honest and respond themselfs to what they have done, beeing responsible of our own acts.nwe have to be complete,owledgable
although doctors can`t  hide such information to the parents ( that their son has down syndrome), parents should not abort, because if they have choosen to have a child, they should have taken into account the son could have born with such of anormalitys (althouhg there is not a very huge porcentage of happening).
Parents should love their sons above all, whatever he(she) has down syndrome or not... people with down syndrome are equal to us, they are more inteligent and they are very  nice and funny; i would like to have a relative with down syndrome...I think it would be awesome:
Being ethical means to deal with morals or the principles or morals and knows to make the difference between something right and something wrong...

She have to think what to do... There are two options... what would you do?
