My Favourite Actor

Tom Welling

If you do not know who tom welling is, just keep on reading. Thomas John Patrick Welling is an American actor, director, and former male fashion model who was born on April 26, 1977 in Putnam Valley.

In 2000, this spectacular actor started his career like a model for Tommy Hilfiger, Abercrombie & Fitch, and others more for being a very tall man with blue eyes and dark hair. He appeared in some commercials and a music video. Also he started to act in many series, but his most important serie and with which one is better known is called Smallville playing Clark Kent’s life. Smallville explored the early years of Clark growing up in the times before he becomes Superman. Another important thing is that he won the Teen Choice Award as Choice Breakout Male Star in 2002 for his role as Clark. The 100th episode of Smallville aired in January of 2006. At the sixth season we could see Tom directing a second episode during season six called Hydro. But it was not the first time, because his first time was with the season five Smallville episode, Fragile. The serie is now in its seventh season. In April 2007, it was reported that Welling had signed on for an 8th Smallville season. However, no formal announcement has been made.

In December 2003, Welling proved act on the big screen played Charlie Baker, the oldest son in a family compose by 12 children in the film Cheaper by the Dozen making the second part of the movie later of finishing the first one. The film also starred Steve Martin and Hilary Duff. In 2005 Welling appeared in other film as well. He played Nick Castle in The Fog which was a remake of John Carpenter's film.

A bad news for me was when tom got married with Jamie White an actress too on July 5, 2002 in Martha's Vineyard, after a four year relationship. Nowadays he lives in Los Angeles with his family and dogs.

September 18 and 19

What it is? and what do we do or eat on this holiday?

First the idea of did September 18 a holiday was for celebrate our independence. All begins with a first decisive step to break up the relation between Chile and Spain. It’s made a government meeting for napoleon's arrival to the Iberian peninsula and the exit of the Spain king to start the separation with the Spanish wreath. On July of 1810 Mateo de Toro y Zambrano takes the control of the General Captaincy of Chile but the definitive proclamation of Independence of Chile was on de febryary 12, 1818.
Besides we celebrate too “ The day of the glories of the army” in memory to all the people who gave the life in so many battles for Chile independence and for all that on September 19 the first day in that Chile was considered a free country on 1810.

Also in this days we have many traditional things to celebrate these 2 days. One of them is the traditional dance “ la Cueca” that on18 de Septiembre de 1979 it decided it is the National Dance of Chile. This dance is an imitation of the courtship between a rooster and a hen. It explains the fight of the man for the love of the lady. On the hand we ate a lot of food these days like asado (meat with some of salad), a good empanada differs for the "pine", which basically is composed of meat, olives, onion and mass. For drink it is "la chicha" which one is made with the grape, though also it is produced with apple too. This alcoholic drink is sweet.

And to conclude we have the volantin is very fun specially for the children which enjoy 18 for elevating it. The voalntin is made of volantin paper, thread and glue.

Bullying

First as you know for start to write something about a special topic is important to know what the word means is. Bullying is when someone beats to another one to show how superior is.

Second difficult to say something about this if I’ve never live it. But nowadays is very common see problem in schools. Is important to mention that this big problem can start for example in a school the kids fight for show how popular is it or only because the other boy is weak or introvert.

In other cases we can see parents who need to bullying to their kids, because they think that with this punish the boys can improve their behaviour. But if you ask me these is not the way to can fix something that you think is not right maybe you can talk with the other. My mother always says that when you fight or bully to anybody is when you don’t have sufficient vocabulary to speak with another one, only an ignorant can to solve problems by means of a blow. The other day on the news appears that pupils of a school have a fotolog where put o lot of pictures bullying a classmate and also a direction on youtube, a page on internet, where you can see a recording with the same kid suffering this kind of mistreatment.

On the other hand we can see on the news a lot of cases bullying. During the last month we could see that 49 women died killed by their couple or husband. For me all those Homicides start with a bullying. If you lead that your husband or couple bullies you,
You give the course in order that later on it he could manage to kill already is for jealousies or a broke up on a relationship. Be careful and denounces always all kinds of mistreatment.
