Black Friday :3


Black Friday is the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the United States. It is not a federal holiday,it's one of the major shopping days of the year in the United States.
The term “Black Friday” was coined in the 1960s to mark the kickoff to the Christmas shopping season. “Black” refers to make moving from the “red” to the “black,” back when accounting records were kept by hand, and red ink indicated a loss, and black a profit. 
On this day the shopkeepers bring in to balance all the goods and attract many customers.

My free time.☺

In my free time I love meeting friends. Sometimes I play cards with my brother Daniele, but I like also listening to music, especially Ligabue!^^
I love Ligabue's songs, but I hate rap music. I can't stand playing videogames; I think that they are stupid! In my free time I don't mind staying at home. I like so much reading a book. In the books there is a fantastic world!

He's LIGABUE!

In the morning I usually wake up at half past six and I get up at seven o'clock. First I have a shower and I get dressed, then I have breakfast with milk and cereals, finally I brush my teeth. At eight o'clock I leave home to meet Aleksandra, after that we go to school. When I leave school I go out with my friends, then I go back home and at half past one p.m I have lunch.
In the afternoon first I do my homework, after that, if I finish early, I go out with my friends. I usually listen to music or I read a book in the afternoon.

The U.K and the Royal Family.

The U.K is a political Union of 4 Countries: England, Scotland, Wales and North Ireland.
The capital of the U.K is London. London is also the capital of England, in fact the Government resides in London.
The U.K is a constitutional monarchy with a Parliament. The Parliament governs the country, not the Monarch. The Parliament in the U.K. is divided into two Houses: the House of Lords and the House of Commons.
The Monarch of the U.K is Queen Elizabeth II of Windsor who belongs to the Windsor dynasty. Originally the family name was different, it was not Windsor; originally the family name was German, Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Elizabeth's Grandfather, the king,  changed the name to Windsor in 1917, because the German surname was very unpopular. The first Windsor was King George V, after the new King was Edward VIII for a short time, because he abdicated in favour of his brother George VI, Elizabeth's father. When he died, Elizabeth became the new Queen.
She married Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland.
They've got four children: Prince Charles, Prince of Wales (the first son has the title of Prince of Wales.), Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex.
Prince Charles married Lady Diana Spencer in 1981. They have two children, Prince William and Prince Harry. Two years ago Prince William married Kate Middleton and they have one child, George Alexander Louis.
She's Queen Elizabeth.


They are Diana and Charles with their two children William and Harry!



Kate, William and George.
