a genius

The British girl Neha Ramu, original from Bangalore has scored the maximum IQ level possible, even more than Stephen Hawking!

As you know, an IQ test is used to rate the intelligence and the normal result is about 90-109 but Neha got a 162, what is considered a genius. 

She explains that she doesn't feel clever, just very curious and I think this is quite modest, considering her amazing capacity. On the video she says that her dream is to never stop studying and a very sensible comment she does is that if you don't use all that capacity that's given to you it is just like you don't have it so that's why she wants to study all that stuff. Her family didn't realize about her intelligence until recent years, when she started to show an intellectual giftedness.

Here there's the video of the new so you can meet Neha.

crazy day

Have you ever had that feeling that you're exhausted but you wanna continue doing something? So yesterday I did.

I started the day at six o'clock, one hour before than normally, because my parents had to be in BCN at nine, so they took me to school at seven. The only thing I could do there was waiting, so I waited my way: I sat on a sunny bench and read a book until Jana came behind me and shouted on my ear...

After a typical schooldays I went to the sailing center in st. Pere, where a fantastic wind was waiting for me, so I couldn't choose: I had to sail! However, I didn''t sail for many hours because I had to study for a Spanish exam I've done today (I think I'll pass it well). After studying, my parents and I went again to "fluvià-gola" where we took our paddles and rowed up to the town. Then, we returned and for our surprise it was ten pm! We had to hurry and go home quickly because we wanted to see an amazing TV serial that it's on channel six.

I really enjoyed that crazy day, a little stressing but relaxing at the same time:) 

I wanted to share a photo of yesterday, but we didn't take any, so I show you a picture taken a few weeks ago on a trip we did in Empuriabrava.

summertime

After a long long winter summer is already here!

As you can imagine, everyone was waiting for it, waiting for the sun, for hot weather, beach... and of  course its wind!

Yesterday I did one of the firsts sessions without the thick wetsuit and it was fantastic: warm wind, warm water... oh! I forgot, have I ever told you that I also do windsurfing and kitesurfing? Although I only practise them in summer because in winter I have the sailing competitions and I don't have enough time for all.

Right now I'm at Jana's house, enjoying the weather and sunbathing  (getting ready for the beach heheh) and I thought that I could write a post to tell you how relaxed am I chatting with Jana and Nuria. However, they started to read a book a few minutes ago, so that's why I'm writing instead of talking...

Ed CANVAS

Do you remember EDcanvas? I tried to post this canvas a few weeks ago but I couldn't and now I've found it an I've decided to post it . It is about Romeo and Juliet. Enjoy it!


Romeo and Juliet

my photo

This is a photo of Pau and me sailing taken in Vilagacia d'Arousa during the Spanish championship. In the center you can see Pau hanging from the trapeze and just behind him there's me steering. On te left top there's our boat and the sails. On the background there is a boat racing against us and you can see two more 420 on the right side. Also on the right side, but forward, there's the arrival boat. The sea looks a little messy and the wind strong but not too much. 

I like this photo because it's very dynamic and of course because there's me sailing and I don't really have a lot of photos sailing. Also because it's cool and I think that I look very concentrated (I didn't realize that there was somebody taking a photo of me). My favorite part of the photo is that you can see how is a sailing day with wind, and all the sails together are very beautiful.

However it is also useful to see what do I have to improve, for example you can see that the small sail on the left is a little bit curved by the spinnaker pole. I can also see that both Pau as I have to hang more straightly so we could manage the boat better.

Anyway, I like the photo and I have to say that it is my profile picture on Facebook.

feel like summer!

Just two days ago I lakes about the awful weather that was making me become so sad... but now the storm has leaved and Spring is arriving at last. I'm getting so happy! The day is light almost until seven and the temperature is getting higher. And this reminds me that Summer comes after Spring! And this Summer I'm going to Ireland for two weeks :) 

Last year I went there for seven days, and they were the best in Summer. So I've decided to return there and this time, for two weeks! I'll go with Nil, as last year, but probably with another friend Marcel. And I have to say that we've arranged the dates to meet there our italian friends and Zosia, the polish one. We're so excited to see them again, and also very happy to continue learning surf, spoken English and of course having a loooot of fun.

I hope this year we will meet a lot of new people and trip to wonderful places such as cliffs and amazing landscapes. I know that it is impossible to repeat last year's experience, so I'm wondering to make it even better, meeting new friends, learning new things and going to different places. 

At last I just want to tell you that if you have the chance to travel abroad, don't think it twice! It is incredible. And it is as easy as looking for interesting trips around Europe in the network!!
