CA 2 - 3 ANIMAL VIDEOS

The first video that I choose, was this.

One of the most inhuman behaviors. This is the top one of things that I’m against and makes me really furious. How people, with judgment, with conscious, with mind and a head above their shoulders can do this cruel activity? I don’t understand. It’s so sad… Whales are so precious and intelligent, more than those stupid monsters called humans. THIS MUST STOP.

The second video:

Something less sad than the first, well, actually pretty fun ahaha

I just laugh so hard when I saw this video that I needed to stop it. It’s so hilarious, this just happens in Chile, I’m sure. Because, what kind of TV channel put this type of content? hahaha Whatever, I didn’t even know if they were being serious about all of that, I mean, they are in their mind? Or maybe, the dog really talked, this world is so vast that nothing impress me anymore. 

If you want to pass were the fun is, press the minute 0:57 

The third video:

OMG this is so cute hahaha. This video needed to be here, in this post, because god, this need a scientist explanation. Why cats react to cucumbers like that? Hahaha the dream of my life is to prove this with one of them, it’s so funny. Cats are intriguing animals, that’s for sure. They do the strangest things, like jump from nowhere or the slogan that really describe them: “Touch me, but with your eyes, human”

Post 6: One of my favorite bands!

Hello everyone!

Today’s post is about one of my favorite bands, I have so many that it was really, really difficult to choose ONE, I love music because they inspire me in many ways, like draw, and draw… and draw haha I listen to a lot of different kinds of music and styles, like Japanese music or Spanish music or English music… whatever, here we go!

The lucky band that I choose is called KEANE.

Keane are an England alternative rock band, they are known for using a piano as the main instrument instead of guitars or drums. They are like my religion.

The band formed in 1995, and is composed of four members; Tom Chaplin, Tim Rice-Oxley, Richard Hughes and Jesse Quin. They have recorder five albums totally, and they are currently in hiatus, since 2013 when the recompilation of their best songs was release. The first two albums were voted as the best British albums ever, among The Beatles, Oasis and Radiohead. They are so cool.

I absolutely love this band because the melodic and awesome tone of the vocalist’s voice, he has this magic and beautiful tone that whenever I listen to his music they cause me a nice and a warm feeling of peace.

My favorite song is called Bedshaped. The rhythm is so peaceful that I can be hours listen to this beautiful song. 
They are my aesthetic   (─‿‿─)

Post 5: Dreaming is free

Hello there, the theme of today is about the place I want to visit if I had the time and, obviously, the damn and filthy money

The lucky is…. (Drumroll plz) JAPAN!!

Yes. My dream. I would like to do to Japan, is the country of all my fantasies.

But the question here is Why Japan?

That’s really a simple question, I like the culture, food, the writing, structure, the scenery, mountains (specially the Fuji Mount) and above all, because is the mother of Japanese animation (anime) that I have followed since I was very, very, little. Mangas (japanese comics) and the music are also my favourite things about that precious place.

Thanks to research and the information that anime gave to me, I know pretty much about japan, things like traditions, customs, a little of history, the era of samurais and things like language and writing. I have been learning those complicated things a time ago on my own, and its soooo difficult, and the kanjis OMG, THE KANJIS!! Now I understand why the Japanese people are so smart, Jesus Christ

The first thing I would like to do if I have the possibility is to go to the Akihabara district, in Tokyo, because, woah! I can find there figures, mangas, music, and a million things that I can’t find in Chile.

This is my paradise. I would sell my soul to be there.

I would like to travel to the Fuji mount and participate in one of those beautiful festivals that they made there, wearing a yukata and eat all kind of traditional food.

And Food!! Taste real food, I would like to eat Katsudon, I have tried katsudon before in a restaurant here, in Chile, but I’m sure that is not the very same with the original, so the first thing that I will eat (because I will go) is going to be THAT.

Also, I would like to work there, when I finish my studies I’m willing to apply for a job in Japan, (dreams are dreams, I know) To achieve my dreams I need to work very hard, and I’m sooo lazy, whatever, I don’t have to lose hope (?)

That’s all thank you for reading!!!

See you next time

Post 4: Life and moments

October 7th,1998

I was born in Santiago, Chile, in Felix Bulnes hospital. My birth was a little complicated, so I had to stay in the hospital for a couple of days, incubated. 

Around 2001-2002

This memory will always remain in my conscious.
 I was really small, like three or four years old, and I cut my hair under the kitchen table. It was really fun, because my mother freaked out, she yelled at me and threw me out of the house. I don't regret what I did.










(This is not me, I found it on internet)

March 2003

My first day in elementary school. Even if this sounds creepy I still remember that day. They told me: "Okay, grab the crayon and smile here sweety" I just wanted to draw, but they did not let me to.

Somewhere between 2005-2009

Here are the best moments in my whole life, they are memories, my sister and me, just playing. They are really precious, they are the best part of me. 

(We are prettier than those)

April 2008

My parents finally had their own house, it's small, and really, really, hot in summer, but it's theirs, ours, after many years going to house from house. 

February 2010

We survived to the "27F" The first and worst earthquake that i have ever experienced. 

October 2014

The fist time I went to a concert of my favorite band: "One ok Rock"

                                                                                             June 2015

On June 18th, 2013, Nicolas, my last and most important pet in my life died, a car run over him.

I was devastated, and I remember that I cried all the night, and didn't sleep for like three days. 

It's sad, but all the pictures that I took of him are in CD's.

He was a mongrel, but he looked really similar to the one in the picture.

Post 3: My most important thing

My digital tablet.

The digital tablet is a tool used to draw through the computer. Before the one in the picture I used to have another, a Genius Pen Tablet (I did not like it though hahaha) 
The wacom Intuos pen tablet in the image is really, really, important to me for two reasons: First, it was the first thing I bought with the payment of my first job (yeey) I remember, it was on the 20th of February from this year, and the second is that, (for me) It was sooo expensive that every time I use it, i'm so careful with it that can freak out people. 

I just connect the digital tablet in the usb port from the computer and I can draw with a special pencil and software, once you get familiarized with it, is very easy to use.

Lately I used it less  frequently, moslty for lack of time :c But I try to draw all the weekends, saturday nights.

I like it because I can express all the things I want to draw or paint with quality (And because if I mess the page I can easily erase the failures hahaha)

My life without the digital tablet would be a little empty, I think.  I can replace it with real paper and pencils, but obviously, that would not be the same.

Post 2:

    1.- What is your opinion about legalizing abortion in some cases?

R: I think that “just in some cases” it must be legalized (I only accept abortion in case of without consent abuse, and not when the two people do it without protection) Women had the right to choose whether or not to have birth to a child conceived from a violation, is their decision and not from fat, old guys behind a desk. 

 2.- What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana?

R: I only accept this just in medical treatment for sick people. Not for recreation or hippie guys that only want to be high and happy all the time. I really hate the smell when unconscious persons start smoking marijuana in the bus stop with children and pregnant women there, they are a bunch of selfish dumbasses. 

 3.- What is your opinion about “barras bravas”?

R: They really, really scare me to the bone, especially when they happens to be on board of the bus, breaking windows and seats, without caring about the other. It’s kind of irritating seeing them through television, making commotion and chaos in the Stadium, destroying every inch of space, fighting with each other, tearing apart the whole place, it’s sad that they can’t care for a building that is made to them and for their entertainment. 

4.- What is your opinion about women in the military?

R: I absolutely approve it. Women are perfectly capable to do the same services as men, they have the same right and free to choose anything they like. We are all human beings and, also, we are living in a new era, thinks like genre differences are something from the past, but even so, they are still clearly implanted in our society.

 5.- What is your opinion about recycling?

R: I think that recycling is a cheap and useful method that any of us can do, using old materials or trash to transform them into new ones, it’s really interesting. Also, it has many benefits, like protecting the environment, fauna and creating sources of employment.
