THE PERSON THAT I ADMIRE I can write about a famous person that I admire, but I prefer to write about a person near me. I’m going to write about my father’s father. His name is Luis Maria Asurmendi but all the people call him Luis. He’s a very good person; he is always helping our family and his friends. When we need some help, we phone him and in five minutes he is here. He’s 75 years old but he is very, very healthy. He can run, jump as a child. When I’m with him we practice a lot of sports, but he always wins, he’s good at all the sports, we like to play table-tennis tennis, football...He’s very active. Everyday he goes to the swimming pool and with his friends he plays letter games. He always says: "Me voy a echar la partida" (I’m going to play a card game) and in a second he is missing. He always wears very elegant, a shirt of a expensive mark (he has a lot of money!), and long trousers. We haven’t a lot of physical features in common, but we have some similar characteristics: we’re both very nervous and have little patience. He was born in Arizala (Navarra) but he worked in Legazpia (Basque country) all his life. There he met my grandmother. Later he lived in Rotxapea in Navarra, a neighbourhood in Pamplona, but now he lives at Pio XII street in Pamplona. He has 4 sons, one is Ignacio, another is Luis Mari, then Isidro and Javier. His wife is Isi, she is very is young too.

A PERSON I REALLY ADMIRE: MY MOHER My mother’s name is María Elena Indave, but we always call her Elena. She is 42 years old but on the 17th of December she will be 43, so she was born in 1966. She was born in Pamplona but she lived in Leache, a very small village in the southwest of Navarre. She has two sisters and a brother older than her, and one brother younger, we spend a lot of time with him, more than with the others. When she was 14 years old she went to live to Pamplona with her two sisters and she studied at " La Granja High School ". She met my father José Luis. Then got married and some years later they came to live to Burlada. They have been living in Burlada for 18 years. My mother is quite tall, she has long curly fair hair and blue eyes, as me. She is quite talkative, very hardworking and a bit minded. She is very generous. She studied Pharmacy at the university of Navarre, but she does not work in a chemist’s, she is a housewife. When she was younger she taught evening classes of mathematic and physics to teenagers. Now she can help me and my brother because she is very intelligent. She is a very sportive person. She loves walking with my father. They spend almost all the day walking. She also goes to aerobic classes in the mornings. At the weekends we sometimes go to the mountains. Although she practices a lot of sports, she also likes watching films, lying on the sofa. This is my mother’s life and for this reason I rally admire her.

A PERSON I GET ON WELL WITH: MY BROTHER I’m going to talk about my brother. His name is Saul Pascual and is 19 years old. His hobbies are playing with the computer and playing the guitar. He has two guitars. One is a “Guitarra española” and the other one is an electric guitar. He loves music, he’s crazy about it. His favourite group is “Marvin” but he also listens to “Green Day”, “Sum 41”, “Linkin Park”… And he plays their songs with the guitars. He lives with me and my parents. In Burlada. He is studying at Ibaialde, like me. His favourite brand mark is “Atticus”. He likes very much their T-Shirts. He’s got a lot of them. His favourite colour is orange, but to dress he likes black and white. He hates studying and he travelling. In his free time, he goes out with his friends, watches TV… Saul is orderly (more than me) and doesn’t like anyone touching his things. We get along pretty badly, but, when don’t quarrel, I like being with him.

A PERSON I GET ON WELL WITH: MY SISTER

She’s Maria José Mariño, my little sister. She’s 9 years old and she’s a student at Hilarion Eslava School. She, of course, lives here in Burlada with my parents and me. I know her since she was born. She’s my sister and I think we get on very well. She’s tall for her age, she has dark hair. She usually likes to wear jean trousers and a T-shirt, but sometimes she must put on her school uniform for P.E, which she hates a lot. As she is my sister, she looks like me a lot, and some people say that she and I are much alike. About physical features that we have in common I think is specially the face, the hair and the colour of the skin. She’s a kind and generous person; she helps me in all that she can. I like her kindness a lot, probably is the first quality that a person must have. Her character is very good and this is something I think wouldn’t change. Both she and me are a little bit impatient but it doesn’t matter. The only thing that is a fault in her is that she is absent-minded, she

almost always, for example, forgets things at school. I see her all afternoons, and sometimes I help her to do her homework or we play together. I get on very well with her and she also with me, I hope that in the future we continue like this. She was born in Ecuador like me, but on April 24 in 2000. She started the school in San Juan and now she’s studying primary at Hilarion Eslava School. In the past she was a very good student and now she continues with the same routine. She has always loved drawing, she loves doing it, and really, she does it very well, it’s her specialty. She makes my life real fun, before she was born all was very boring but then all the things were made by pairs, she and me. I think she is the person who I love the most. She makes me smile and be always happy. She’s my sister Maria José and I hope she is always beside me.

MI FRIEND Amaia is my best friend since we were 3. We are still very good friends and in the 11 years that I have been with her, although we sometimes get angry, we always forgive each other. I admire Amaia because she is a very hardworking person, an excellent friend, the best for me. She always knows what to say to make me smile, she is very responsible and for all this and other things I think that she is a very nice person. When we are together we have a very good time, and, I have to recognise that Amaia has taught me a lot of things, she is like my big sister but our relationship is much closer and enjoyable. We like to spend time together for example we sometimes take our dogs for a walk and all the weekends we go out with the group of friends. We also like to meet alone to talk and tell our secrets to each other. Amaia always keeps my secrets and of course I keep Amaia’s. When our parents can, we go to the countryside together or Amaia comes to my house to sleep and other times I go to Amaia’s house. We go to Amaia`s village, but this only sometimes, and we stay all the weekend!

A PERSON I REALLY GET ON WELL WITH: MY SISTER I’m going to write about my sister, called María Aragón. She is 19 years old and she was born on May 25 in 1990 in Pamplona, so she is five years older than me! It’s too much! She lives with my parents, my grandparents and me in Cildoz, a village near Pamplona. She studies Pharmacy at the University of Navarre in Pamplona. She goes by car all the days to the University and she comes back home very tired. She is a very good student because she studies a lot everyday, so in the exams has good marks. She is always working because she has too many things to do. Her hobbies are listening to music, painting, running and I think that studying because she is almost always studying. She likes going out with her friends, normally on Friday nights, and riding her bike too. She is tall and thin. She has brown hair and green eyes. She wears glasses or contact lenses. She is a little bit shy but, when she feels well, she is very friendly. She wears modern, but on special occasions, like a meal with all the family at Christmas… she wears very elegant. When I have a question in my homework, she helps me because she is 5 years older than me, as I said before, and she knows more than me. She is really useful for me. She has been in many places, like Paris (France), Toronto (Canada)… she really loves to travel, she says it is exciting. She wants to travel as much as she can. She is an adventuress person! I like that face of my sister because it is very interesting.

So this is my sister and I like her, how she is, but I would like we would be closer in years. But that is impossible. If you want to know more things about my sister you can take my e-mail: [email protected], and I’ll tell you all the things that I know about her. Good bye!

A PERSON THAT I ADMIRE Maitane is a fourteen year old girl. Her eyes are brown and her hair is also brown and curly, and she has blue glasses. She’s shorter than me and she likes to wear sport clothes, but she also likes elegant clothes, from Zara, Bershka, Roxy... She was born in Panplona, ands she studied at "Hilarión Eslava" primary school, in Burlada. She was a very good student! Her hobbies are playing basketball, drawing, painting, reading, going out and listening to music, but I remember when we were seven, she wanted to have a horse because her hobby were animals... She’s a student at Ibaialde secondary school and she lives in Burlada, in a flat with her parents, her brother Asier and Max, her dog. I have known her for 11 years, we have lived everything together. Our relation is a friends’ relation but and we’re also class-mates. Her character is calm and hard working at school, but when we go out, she’s funny and extrovert, and she’s a girl of strong character and also is very stubborn. When she says no, it’s no but I really love her. I see her very often, all the days of my life, I think, because we’re in the same class and in the same group of friends. We’re always together and I really like to be with her. We do a lot of things together, like going out or shopping. For example, in November, we’re going to watch "New Moon" at the cinema, because we also have the same taste in films, clothes, books... Even in music, we love "Jonas Brothers"! But my favourite one in the group is Nick and she prefers Joe. It’s very funny when we start talking about them and don’t stop. But we also argue a lot, I like to argue with her. Maitane is a very important person in my life and I don’t know what to do without her. I hope in the future we’ll be together like now, but I know is difficult, because if we choose

different jobs... But I hope we will always be friends. In 11 years, our relation has changed a little bit because now we don’t play, jump or run like when we were seven. And now we are always talking, sometimes arguing and always helping each other. I really love Maitane!

A PERSON I ADMIRE: MY FATHER A person who I really admire is my father Jon, or Juan Carlos (his real name). He’s 46, black short haired, well now his hair is quite white, dark-skinned, not much tall, 1’75 I think, big brown eyes, small nose and a smile that makes you feel good. He’s serious but he can make you laugh, very patient in most aspects of his life, a very, very organized person and very hard-working too. He was born in Barcelona, on the 31st of May in 1963, but he grew up in Pamplona. He met my mother when he was 19, when he was a singer in Sparto, a famous group of music at that time. He tells me a joke, that my mother wanted to see the battery but my father was in the middle, so… My father was the singer of Sparto for 5 years, but he left the group to create a family. In 1992 he married my mother and later, on the 3rd of July 1995, I was born. My father started to work at a factory, nowadays he’s working in other factory because the other was closed. The factory’s name is Recy-land, I think. Three years after I was born my sister Nidia came to this world and the house was small for four people, so we had to move to Villava, the place where I live nowadays. My father’s parents, my grandparents of course, are Juan and Tere. They live in Pamplona. They are very friendly and lovely persons. My father has two brothers and one sister. He’s the oldest of all the children, Jose Luis is the second and he still plays the electric guitar in Sparto. Rosa is the next, she’s very intelligent and very hard-working, she works in a important company of environment. The last is Patxi, he’s a mechanic, he knows a lot of things about cars and other machines. So that’s my father, a person who I really admire.

JULEN PINO

MY BROTHER I person that I really admire is my brother Javier. He lives in the same house as me, because we are still very young. He is older than me too, he is sixteen years old. His birthday is on the 18th of August. About his physical appearance? Well, he is not much tall for his age, he is medium. He has got black hair and brown big eyes. I don’t know what else I can say, because he hasn’t got any special features, so I’m going to describe him in the character. Sometimes he is very talkative, but this is not normal, because he is usually shy. I like when he is talkative. When he is in this mood we can have a nice conversation. But sometimes we argue especially about the computer and the TV too. He has got a very strong character with me, but it is my brother and I love him a lot. He is very good table-tennis player. He started playing table tennis five years ago more o less, he said that he doesn’t remember. Last year he left football practice and then he started to teach to young people (table-tennis) so he became a trainer. Last summer he started to attend courses to be a referee and now he is a football referee too. Every weekend he goes to referee to girls and boys of different categories. He earns a lot of money because he is federate… He likes going out a lot with his friends. He has got a lot of friends, but I don’t know the names of all of them. I know, Oscar, Rubén, Xabi, Javito, Nestor, Dani, Gorka… At weekend they go parties in different towns and these are the most important things of my brother.

My sister’s name is Lucia, she is ten years old but she always says that she is 11 because her birthday is on the 4th of November. She lives in Villava with my parents, my brother and me. She studies at Lorenzo Goicoa School, but next year she is going to start at Ibaialde with me. Lucia isn’t very tall, because all my family are small. She isn’t fat. She has got blond, straight, and not very long hair. Her eyes are green.. Most of the people say that she and I are very similar but I don’t think so! She usually wears jeans, normal shoes and t-shirts with different colours. She loves colours, her favourite colour is blue and she doesn’t like anything pink. She is a very funny and lovely person. She is very friendly but not a very open person. She only opens up when she knows the person well. In this aspect she and I are very different, also she is very nervous, exactly the same as me. We spend much time together and we see each other all the days. I have good times with her because she is a little crazy and we have the same hobbies. Se is a lovely person because is smiling all the times! Lucia loves dancing ballet, when she was 6 years old she went to classical academy for some years but now she goes to a gym in Villava with her friends and at weekends she has competitions but she doesn’t win yet. Also she likes to spend much time with her friends in Villava, in the swimming pool, in the cinema,... But many times she goes with her cousins, she has two cousins of the same age and when the three are together she enjoys it! She also studies so much because she is a really good student but very disorganized too. And that’s all, this is my sister and I love her.

IDOIA IRIARTE

MY BROTHER My brother is called Xabier, he is ten years old and will be eleven on January 5. My brother is medium height; he is a little bit fat too. He has got brown eyes and small nose; he has got short brown hair. He is a nice person but sometimes I do not get on very well with him, also I love him. He studies in Lorenzo Goicoa, a school in Villava which is also my older school. He is a person with a strong character too. He has got a lot of hobbies. But the best for him is football; he plays in the team of the Atarrabia. This is a secret but ..."he is the best". He also loves being with his friends, he's very friendly and he makes friends very quickly, because he is crazy!! (Ha! Ha! Ha!). His best friend is Igor, a very funny child and his elder brother is one of my best friends, his name is Ivan. My brother Xabier loves animals, he loves all of them. His favourite are dogs and horses. He wants to go horse riding but it’s very expensive. We also have a dog: buff... my mother hates dogs!! Xabier says that he wants to be the best veterinary in the world!! I'm sure that his dream will become true because he is a very intelligent person. His fauvorite food is pizza, ice-creams and pasta. He's a glutton person. His fauvorite colours are blue and red because he loves Barça and the colours of the T-shirt are those too. He wants to play in Barça when he grows up. His favourite number is 8. I like being with my brother, he is a good company!! But when he's angry... it’s very dangerous (Ha! Ha! Ha!). He's my young little brother and I love him very much.
