This Week's Composition
IT
Once upon a time, in a distant land, there lived a woman. It was a sunny afternoon and the woman had been shopping all morning. At some point she had remembered it, and then decided not to think about it, not to talk about it anymore. In the future, people might understand it but now it could be a risky.
She needed to forget it. However, it came back to her mind again and again. She went out and walked for hours trying to forget it. “I was not guilty of it; it was not my fault,” she thought. “Why did I do it?” she asked herself.
Many years afterwards, she is still under the effects of it, but now she has become accustomed to having it in her mind.
Nobody knows her secret about it. However, she does not know how long she will be able to keep it.

Music and the Counterculture of the 1960s
As part of the syllabus for the Advanced level, students are required to have experience in note-taking while attending a conference on a specific theme. For this reason, and as an extension of our Beatles’ evening, the EOI Santa Brígida has invited Dr Daniel Fyfe of the ULPGC to give a talk about the music of the 1960s and its relationship with society at that time. It will take place in the library on the ground floor of the School at 7.30 pm on Wednesday 27th November. Attendance is compulsory for NA, but everyone is more than welcome. It promises to be most entertaining and informative!
