Dear Miss Ale: I think the video was great!!!!!!
I FELT LIKE I WAS ACTUALLY THERE!!!!!
I THINK IT WAS A VERY NICE AND REFLECTIVE VIDEO!!!!!
I think that the video is very nice because it shows how people all around the world are together at one place and that is great because you get to know people all around the world, even if he or she is one the other side of the planet.
First I didn´t understand that much the game so I got 8 out of15!!!!!!
I think that the song or video includes "ONE WORLD, ONE DREAM" becauseit is all the world at one certain point and for the citizens of the country(beijing) it is a previlage to get to do such an important fiest in their country. i think it also says DREAM because it is very difficult to get to the Olympics, and it is also because this is an event that is only done with a certain years and I think it is THE most important event of gimnastics and if you get to that point to assist to it I think you will be getting to one of your dreams and one of the milion things you thought you will never get to it.
It also says"FOREVER FRIENDS, IN HARMONY" I think it meant that when we get together in such a big event we must remember that it is very important and a must to keep calmed and remember it is only a game, because maybe, there are people that get so desesperated so that his or her country wins that gets out of mind and turns into a kind of monster, and for us to remember, that no matter how big the world is we can always be friens and get together for this types of events, and taht´s what I think the Olympic games were made for, not only for the reason to decide on a very good gymnaster and to show the people´s abbilities,but also to get together as A team(all countries) and look foward for freindship around the whole world and to show the people that the world ISN´T that big and that we can always make friends and keep in contact whith them.And that´s why i LOVE these event and I´m sure looking foward for this to continue for years and years because it is a very fun, interesting, friendly, happy, etc. event and I really enjoy all those people when they show how good they are in gymnastics!!!!!!!
I LOVED THE VIDEO MISS ALE!!!!!!
I WISH YOU PUT MORE VIDEOS WITH EXERCISES AND WITH SOME QUESTIONS OF IT!!!!!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR INCLUDING IT MISS ALE!!!!!
BYE BYE SEE YOU SOON!!!!

Miss Ale,
I think the video of the Olimpics called FOREVER FRIENDS is great!
The song makes you reflect a lot, but it also was very nice and creative. When I saw the video I felt that I really wanted to be there, the start of the Olimpics, well the part we saw at school was great, Beijing is very lucky to have been choosen, but I really think they were great, they were very presice in everything, and some when you saw them really make you realize how difficuld it have been to do it, all the efort all the people is doing and also that all the efort they have to do to make this wonderful event that is the Olimpics of 2008 in Beijing.
I think the video is very reflective because it also shows you people from all over the world being together living in peace in the same lovely world.
The game was very easy for me because you had the video to help you if you had forget any word or frase. I got a 15/15, but anyway it was a great great game, the person who made it might have spent a lot of time making it because its very good.
I think that in the song it says "One world, one dream" because we are all together in the world we share and we all have different dreams so I think its maybe talking about we are all together in this Olimpics sharing the dream of the people who had always dreamed of winning the Olimpics, participating on them and also see them. I also says "Forever friends, in harmony" I think its because we should be all friends in the world that also we should live in harmony, without any wars.
I hope that the next Olimpics (that are going to be in Madrid in 2012) are going to be as Great and marvellous as this one.
I also hope to go to one someday.

Well see you ,

Miss Ale: I heard the song twice but but it was long so a third time was to much. I LOVED IT!!!
The choir was: For ever friends in harmony... IN the quizz was easy because you good hear the song at the same time it was a listening comprehension!! I got a 15/15 because lots of sentences were coman sense!! I could heart it again. I felt something saying me that what even happens in the world friends always have to be in the good problems and bad problems or moments but all that has to be done with your heart. I could see all chinese faces and thought that in 1 world there is 1 dream that is called Foreever Friends, in harmony and this is a super dream that I will always consider this dream for ever!!!

Hello miss alee!!!!!  Yesterday I couldn't post any comment because I had a course of theater that I do with some friends on tuesdays, and I come back home at 8:00 at night and I have to take a bath and help my mom preparing food and I have to have dinner. I diddn't have time to go to the computer.  But today, I think I am going to post a lot of comments. I think that it says "one world, one dream" because, it is important that people from all the world gets together to make a dream come true.  It also says "forever friends, in harmony" because they are all friends it doesn't matter if you don't know each other, you have to treat the others concursants as if they were friends, not enemies. They also have to remember that it is a game and that they dont have to take this as if it was a fight. In a game, you should have fun and stay in harmony. I loved the song! it is very sticky, now, that I have seen the video about 5 minutes ago, I am still singing it!!!! It doesn't matter that the video is formed by pictures, because it really looked as if it was a real video. They were very good pictures because you could see perfectly each person and everything you should see.  My mother saw also the video and she liked it a lot, and she told me that it was very important for me to know all about the olympic games.  I was unnable to play the game, I dont know why. The next time I see you I'll ask you. It tells me something, that I have to login with my PbWiki user, and I don't have one!!!  this happens only with Elang, in any computer I use!!! I can't believe it :(... My grandmother told me that today, was the left-hand writers, and I didn't know!!! Tomorrow I will tell all my friends, such as Kiki, Barbie M, Bauti and Iñaki happy day!!Well miss ale I see you on friday! good bye!agus.c

The game was really good. It was like the one we did in class, anout the song of Coldplay! The video is really nice. It shows lot's of people and not only from China if not from all around the world! The video really shows all the work the citizens made, and also effort be welcome everybody from all around the world very good and nice. I think they have accomplished their mission of getting everyone impressed with all they did! It was really amazing China's precentation! People really did a hard work to make it perfectly aldo perfection is not what matters, it is the spirit they put in to it and the hurt, that is the most important. It doesn't matter if you did't perfect or not, but... a little of effort and dedication to make it better every day counts also! So... Congratulations China for all the hard work!!
Miss Ale
at first I couldn't understand the lyrics very well but when I played the game I understood it a lot better. It really touchs your hurt..Jaja.. Well I mean it but it is a little bit cursy!! But the rhidim of the song and the lyrics(of course) Are really great, fantastic, extraordinary! It makes you want to hug someone! Your friends! Because friends mean so much to someone. They are one of the best things that can happen to you. You feel as in a movie that you start picturing all the happy moments you had with your friend! It is really nice and it makes you feel happy.It is a really nice song!
In the game I took an.. 14/15, I don't remember in which one I got it wrong because I have been writting for a long time!I think that I had put games and it was another answer. The game was really good and interesting, there where like two activities there! I really got confused at first But then I cheat I little bit and move the song a little bit after! Jeje... WELL MISS ALE, THE GAME WAS REALLY GOOD AND THE SONG WAS FANTASTIC, SORRY, EXTRAORDINARY! JAJA! SEE YOU SOON MISS ALE...

Dear Miss Ale: The video is GREAT!!! The pictures were so perfect I felt like I was in beijing looking at the show that obviously was GREAT!!!!!!!!!
For me the video is great because I can see through the video almost all the people of the world in one place looking at this really important event.
The game was great!!!!! Like the video I got 11/15 thank you for putting the video on top so if we did not know the letter we could here it. The last questions were a little difficult and I got them ALL wrong JAJAJAJA but it does not matter.
I think that "One World One Dream" means that because they could had choose any other country and they chose beijing and everybody has the dream to be there and see all the INCREDIBLE things they do each 4 years. And "Forever Friends" because almost all the people is in one place so it looks like they really want to be there like a friend you always want to be with him or her. My favorite part is gymnastics because I see the movements that people can do with there body that we can do that are INCREDIBLE!!! Hope you enjoy the Olympics like everybody in the world does (I am sure that you do but I was only asking if you had another opinion)
I see that lots of people from all the world are looking our blog!!! Hope that some people from beijing are looking it JAJAJA!
Kisses
See you tomorrow...

Miss Alle,

The video was great. I hink the ceremony was great. People say that is the best opening ceremony of all the olympic games. I think that to. Me and my family see the olympic games every night and it is really enteratining and interesting. The best part of the olympic games for me is the part of swimming because i love swimming. The title of the video is really the best title i can think of for that video, it is perfect. The title also means that we are all together in these olympic games. The ceremony really caught me attention because it was so beautiful and so perfect. The video is great. I loved it. I hope there are more interesting videos to put and see them many times. I hope Argentina wins something because what i saw by now it lost in everything. I hope that the next olympic games willl be as good as this one or better depending the place. I loved the video. Im going to keep watching the olympic games.

HI ale the video was ausome!! it is a very ood song to listen at.
I hink this phrase means that we all dream the same world, without wars or robbs, that is what many people do and they don`t think in how the world can better be, this give us a message, this message is to be friends with others and think before doing something like starting a fight with someone at school, wouldn`t it be better to alk about it nt to fight? but this problems can be bigger lke when a war starts into 2 or more countries or civilizations. this is what we need to be all friends not to fight and besociable with te others, it is our dream the world dream.
