SAINT VALENTINE'S DAY

In Saint Valentine's Day, I found two songs. One of them is about love, and the other one is about loveless. I invented two stories about how were created the songs too.

Love song:
This is the happy story of a young man and a young woman. They were introduced each other in a party and they were both University students. It was first sight love, because from the very first moment they saw soon each other they fell in love. That evening they talked and laughed a lot together. After that day she was in all his dreams, where they ran, enjoyed and kissed a lot. After some years, they got married and had a child. He used to tell her 'You are my treasure' and that is the reason he decided to compose this song, calling it 'Treasure'.




Loveless song:
This is a sad love story about a young man who wrote this song when he was getting divorced. He cried a lot during those days and as a result, he was totally devastated and sad, obviously. Thanks to a friend who supported him, he decided to write this love song explaining all about his divorce and after a time he started to sing it while he was still loving her, but finally after some time struggling he could survive all his troubles and he is all right and happy again.

TREASURE ISLAND

A short role play about a scene of the book...

A summary of the book Treasure Island made by Captain Smollett:





The author, Robert Louis Stevenson:
Robert Louis Balfour Stevenson was born on 1850 in Edinburgh (Scotland) and he died on 1894 in Apia (Samoa). He was a Scottish novelist, poet and essayist. Robert studied law, but he wanted to be a writer. His most famous works are Treasure Island, Kidnapped and Strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Stevenson now ranks among the 26 most translated authors in the world. Many other writers like Arthur Conan Doyle or Jorge Luis Borges admired his work. He had married with Fanny Van de Grift Osbourne, from Indianapolis. In Samoa, people from there called to Robert 'Tusitala' (the storyteller). He died when he was forty-four years old because of tuberculosis.
