Song project: Homecoming. Comments about the photos




This is Chicago city; it is in the centre of the United States, on the south east coast of the Michigan Lake. It is in the state of Illinois. The connection to the song is that the singer was bred in that city and in the songs he says he wants to return to that city because there he met a girl when she was young.










In this picture we can see a boy and a girl holding their hands. They have just met each other and from that moment, they fell in love. I think that this image is really romantic because since people are young they can feel the same as old people.










The photo is spontaneus and natural. The relationship between the photo and the song is that the man is Kanye West (the author of the song) and the girl is the woman that he knew when he was little.











In this picture we can see a girl and a boy hugging each other. They’re at a train station, so maybe they are saying good bye, or they can be meeting again. As the song says, it’s always a pleasure to come back home, and meet your people.









This image represents the part of the song when the woman leaves the man carrying with their children, and the man says that you don’t know what you have until you lose it












They are fireworks at the Lake Michigan, the singer repeat at the last verses that maybe the girl remember them.

Olimpic Sports


Badminton is a sport played with a ball, called “shuttlecock” or “birdie”.
It can be played by two players one each other (singles), or by four players two vs. two (doubles). The players of a team must hit the birdie with a special badminton racquet (which is lighter than others) and pass it to the other part of the court, which is separated by a net. The person or team that fails the pass looses the point. Each game is played to 21 points. A match is the best of three games.

The contestants of Spain in badminton are two: Pablo Abián playing for male category, and Joana Martinez playing for female category.
