Queen was created in 1971. It broke up in 1991 because the lead singer died of AIDS. They made 15 albums. The best singles were "We are the Champions" and "The Show must go on".

The lead singer was Freddy Mercury. He was British. He was one of the best performers in the world. His real name was Farrokh Bulsara.

The other members of the band were John Deacon on bass, Bryan May on guitar and Roger Taylor on drums. The song writers were Freddy and Bryan.

My favourite youtube video is "The Show Must Go On" because it has a lot of clips from other videos. This is because the singer wrote this song a little before his death and they didn't manage to make a video for this song.

You can watch it here.

I like Queen since I think they had a lot of passion.

Albanian wedding and sweet


Have you ever asked yourself what are the traditions of other countries like Albania?

One old and very famous tradition in Albania is the wedding ceremony. Albanians celebrate weddings differently from other countries. For example, they don't go to church. Instead, they go to a resturant and the only people who go there are the family of the groom. They drink, eat and dance. The bride's family go there too, but they only stay for about two hours. After the "big"party, all of them go to the bride's house and take her from her family.

One other tradition is "Ballokume"Ballokume is the the special sweet of Albania. We make it every 14th March because that is the day the Albanians celebrate the coming of spring and also the day when Ballokume was created for the first time.

Those are two of the biggest traditions in Albania.

It is the most famous comics company in the world as well as DC –comics. Its characters are the most famous in the world. Some of them are IRON MAN, FANTASTIC FOUR, SPIDER MAN, X-MEN, CAPTAIN AMERICA, THE INCREDIBLE HULK.
The movie IRON MAN cost $ 572.000.000 which was released in the cinemas in May 2008 and was nominated for two Oscars and it has received positive reviews from the audience and from reviewers.

All this has made the movie a box-office smash. Justin Theroux was chosen to write the script. He had previously written with Ben Stiler ,the script for the movie “Tropical Thunder” Robert Downey Jr. received an Oscar nomination for his role in that movie.
Afterwards, Theroux decided to chose the best characters from the 600 on the Marvel comics list. He chose IRON MAN which reappeared in the cinemas 6 months after IRON MAN 1, when Tony Stark told people that he is IRON MAN.

For Robert Downey Jr. to play the role for IRON MAN was a dream come true. In a interview, he said “I am an American, I like Marvel comics and I grew up reading Iron Man and Spider Man”. I always like Iron Man because he is very intelligent.


PLOT
Now, people know that billionaire Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is IRON MAN, the super hero with the best armour. Despite the pressure from the government and from the army, Tony Stark doesn’t want to share the technology behind IRON MAN with the government because he is sure that the secrets behind IRON MAN technology will get into bad hands . Furthermore, he was invited to create new forces to defend new villains

Flamenco



Flamenco is a Spanish dance that can keep you fit, calm you down and put you in a good mood. It needs people who don’t give up easily and want to succeed in their aims. Furthermore it is a dance that helps the dancer to express himself better.


The clothes that the girls need are: a long black skirt and underside of the skirt should be red, for contrast. What is more, you should have black shoes with tall heels with nails in the heel and front under the toe part.


In Flamenco, the music is always played with a guitar. The music is kind of modern style but in fact it is quite old with substance. I like this music and I hope you do too. I hope you will like Flamenco and when you see this kind of dance somewhere, you will remember me!!!!!!

Panathinaikos


I am a keen sport's enthusiast and I am particulary interested in football. I support the Panathinaikos football club.

It is a team that goes way back. It was established in 1908. Panathinaikos has won 20 championshies and 17 caps in Greece. Also, it has distinguished itself in Europe after 30 victories in the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE. Today, Panathinaikos has a lot of famous and international football players, such as Djibril Cisse and Gilberto Silva. Nevertheless, it is made up of a lot of local quality players ,such as Kostas Katsouranis, Sotiris Ninis and Sebastian Leto.

I will always support this team because it has given me a lot of good times.
