My dream come true

Welcome back!
You have just arrived from a wonderful cruise trip and I am sure you have great memories you'd like to share with me.

Please write 200 words describing your experience in the cruise ship and the cities you have visited and choose one in particular to explain in detail what you saw and what you did there. Do not forget to provide information about the transfer from and to Barcelona, the weather, your friends, the chaperon teachers, etc.

I am eager to know!

Family matters

Please Help me and My Family

My family don't get along. It's like we all hate each other. It's my mom, me, my two brothers and a sister. I am the oldest. We all have certain problems: My mom wants to quit smoking so she is really stressed out. I am really selfish (I just can't help it). One of my brothers is too bossy. He thinks he is better than the rest of us and that he is the only one who helps my mom. My other brother is kind of abusive and depressed. He always starts fights and he's really spoiled (my mom doesn't yell at him for doing things wrong and when she does, he laughs at her); My sister (who's 7) makes messes and doesn't clean them up. I really want to help because I don't like being upset all of the time and having everyone hate everyone else. Even when we start to get along, someone will say something to upset someone else. Please help me and my family.
