« 13 reasons why » : a drama series

        13 reasons why is a drama series.

It’s an American series which is inspired from the novel written by Jay Asher.

     The main characters are Hannah Baker and Clay Jensen. Hannah and Clay are 17- year-old teenagers.

One day, Clay receives a box containing 7 tapes. Each tape has 2 sides : A and B. They were saved by Hannah before her death. On each side a person is referred and is responsible for her suicide – her friends.

There are 13 reasons which caused her death, that’s why the series is called like that.

We liked it because we love drama series and because it’s realistic.

There is a lot of suspense, and when we watch an episode,  we want to watch the following one …

« 13 reasons why » (Jay Asher)

       Hi everyone !

Recently I read a new book : 13 reasons why !

Waouh! I think it’s  one of the best books I’ve ever read !

Because you know I’m not a  very big book reader,  but this one is very interesting and it conveys an important message for us, teenagers It talks about bullying at school and the effects it can produce. I will sum up the story :

Hannah Becker, a  young girl who committed suicide is going to explain why and more particularly the 13 reasons why she killed herself. After her death, the first person who caused her to commit suicide receives a box, and after that, he has to give it to the next person. In this box there are 13 tapes  ; each tape matches with one person who bullied her. The last of them, Clay Jensen,  has received the box but he doesn’t behave like all the other ;  in fact,  he doesn’t  follow Hannah’s instructions. He’s going to denounce theses facts to the police and try to change things….

I hope that you’d like to read that book now. It was adapted in a series, so,  if you don’t like to read,  you can watch the series,  that’s  cool too !

See you soon ! M. J.

METAL MUSIC / Introduction

  Metal Music

First, the Metal…what is it ?

Everybody has heard of it, but most  people don’t know anything about it !

I usually hear something like : “Yeah, this music is weird, it’s for satanists, drugged dudes and all of these weirdos…”. So I would say that these people are not completely wrong but, you know, it’s just a simple « cliché » !

The Metal fans are everywhere ! Maybe your maths teacher is one of them ! And he’s not especially weird, huh ?

Anyway, this article is here to make you discover the Metal globally. I’ll make you listen to Metal, show you a lot of bands such as “Rammstein” or “Bullet for my Valentine” for example. And I’m sure your opinion about it will totally change,

even if you don’t like it

(it’s your right after all !)

TOP 5 – NETFLIX

    Hello everybody ,

What do you think about series ?

If you’re lost in Netflix, we’re gonna give you our top5 :

5 : Teen Wolf : This story talks about different teams of wolves. In all the seasons there are 4 characters who are very important. There are some  scary moments. The first season was  a little bit boring, but the other ones were really better.

4 : The end of the f****ing world : It’s a story about a boy who is a psychopath and who’s fed up with life. He wants to kill someone but he’s gonna fell in love…

It’s really strange but it’s very interesting to see the mind of a psychopath. we really like this series.

3 : La Casa de Papel : It’s the story of eight people who organise a super hold up in the spanish house of money. They spend 5 months in a countryhouse to planify it. Moreover there is a friendship story and a love story even if it’s not allowed. This story is very addictive.

2 : 13 reasons why : This is a story of someone who’s bullied at school and she committed suicide. Before she recorded some audio videos where she said why… she sent those cd to the people who hurt her.

1 : Riverdale : This story talks about a city where everything changes after the murder of a teenager « Jason Blossom ». We follow the story of friends and their family after the drama. We really like this story because it’s a mix between a murder story and a friendship/love story.

And you, do you agree with our top ?

We had the idea to give the name « FahrenheitBlum71 » to our blog

    when some of us went to see a play adapted  from

« FAHRENHEIT 451 » by Ray Bradbury

To know more about this outing in Lyon, read the following article written by O.Simon, teacher : 

In December, 47 students went to Lyon with their English teachers.

In the morning, they saw a play adapted from Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.

It was a first for many students to see a play in English. It was quite hard and challenging at the beginning but they finally enjoyed this new experience.

In the afternoon, they visited an exhibition dedicated to Fred Deux’s artwork. This French artist’s disturbing style surprised the students a lot. Many thought the paintings were weird.

In brief, this outing was synonymous with discovery and suprise for the students!
