Books!

I remember that for my 11th birthday my mom gave me a little book called "The little Prince". I all ready knew that book, but only by name. It took to me a couple of month start to read it. When I finally read it, I felt great. I loved the book in all it's simplycity.

The years past. I was a teenager, when I knew my first boyfriend, who loved The Little Prince too, even more like me. So it was a very special connection, (besides the music), so in his birthday, like a present, I gave it to him the book with colour drawings (years later he got a tattoo of the little prince, weard jaja).

In the mindtime, I read book like "Rumble Fish" and "Outsiders", I loved too. Or "The Perfume". "The Hobbit" blow my head off, so I read the entire saga of Tolkien.
One summer, I was in Pichilemu, and I don't know why, I decide to brought a book called "Extraordinary Stories" of one guy called Edgar Allan Poe jajaja. I enjoy it so much his stories.

That was the last book that I remember I read, untill this year, when a important person (who the last year gave me the book "A Clockwork Orange") gave me this time a book called "Butterflies inclosed in my" by Poldy Bird.
I don't knew what the book was about, neither him, but, when I started to read it, I just cry. It took me 2 days to finish the book, and I felt that return my love for the reading.

Since that day, I come back to intereted in books. Every time that I go to the Persa, I try to get a new book. (The last time I bought a new "Little Prince" again).

Now the book that I want is Trainspotting, by Irwin Welsh, but isn't in simply persa, it's in a bookstore. So, when I have money, I definitely buy it.

-Where do people learn about enviromentally friendly practices?
There is some tv programs, in most cases, kids programs. The government has programms to teach the people to care and keep safe the enviorentment. And I hope that in every city hall there are too.

- Have you incorported recycling into your habits? Describe
Yes, my mom for example, has a dump for the garbage of the kitchen, and has another to the papers and cartons, or anything like plastic or something like that. And I put the dead batteries in a sac.

- Do you use a bike or your legs instead of a car?
Both, but usually, because of time (cause I always late) I have to use the public transport. In my day off, I like to ride a bike in my neighborhood, to visit a friend or something like that. I don't know how to drive a car, I prefer to walk, especially if is a nice day.

- Have you joined or supported any eco-organisations? Why/Why not?
No, because I'm to lazy for that. And I don't have the time. I've joined for facebook in some stuff, but that doesn't help anyone. It's a stupid think that facebook could change anything, but, I show my moral respect.

- What else have you done /would you like to do?
Emm, I'm really lazy for things that need initiative, like workshops or organizations of anything. If I could vote for something that brings help to the environment, I'll do it. If a have to pic up some trash in the street, I'll do it (I really do that). If I go to some park, I put the garbage together for later put it in a dump. And I don't release the garbage in the street. (That is so "flaite") jajaja

- What have you done to reduce your carbon footprint?
Nothing, I don't know that something could be done about it. But now that I know, I could plant some vegetable in my backyard (like my grandma'). Maybe if the governments legalize the marihuana probably it will be so many oxygen in the world.

- What's missing in our society/Santiago regarding this issue?
A real awareness about this problem. Maybe it doesn't affect us now, but with certainty, our childrens or grandchildren will be affected.

Hobbit

In the article of the Guardian, the journalist talks about the next movie of the saga of Tolkien, The Hobbit. This beloved book for me it's the next project of Peter Jackson, the latest director of the triology of The Lords of the Rings.

In the text mension that the possible location for this movie it's Britain. The other movies was filming in New Zealand, and for me, it's that country the only trhat can bring us a paradise like the middle-earth.

In the others films, we enjoy to discover Rivendel (the place of elphos) or the shire, were the hobbits lived. So, like the main actors will be appear again in their same characters (like Gandaf the Grey) is logical that the place must be the same.

I'm sorry for the englands, but only the idea of that the movie will be recording in the same studios of Harry Potter makes me sick. Besides, to film in a place, the result are more satisfacty when the place it's already knowing. I don't care if they are proposing places to the movie. THIS FILM MUST BE FILMING IN NEW ZEALAND!!

Jackson knows what the people and fans of Tolkien wants, that's why his film were so successful, he can imagine the book in pictures without offence to the audience (like some others directors, like the stupid one of Dragon Ball).

The british poeple wants all for them. The already have the best music, writers and films. Leave the rest in peace!!

Tilva Rôs

The last week I went to the Film festival of Valdivia. In that place, I saw a movie that blows my head off, Tilva Rôs.

This it's a movie about teenagers, but, not like the typical movie about young and stupid people. This movie was beyond. With a perfect soundtrack, and images in video of the pricipal characters doing stuff like Jackass (the old program of Mtv) we melt into their reality and life.

The story takes place in Serbia, specifically in Bor. A group of Skaters called Kolos spend their summer vacations filming videotapes, skating, drinking and laughing.
The two protagonists, Toda and Stefen, enjoy the hours of the day doing whatever they want.

The special of this film, is that the characters, aren't really character, are themselves. The director of this movie, found a videotape recording by Stefan and Toda when they was 18 years old. In that tape, there appear skating and the most of the time doing stupid things like Jackass.

Technicaly, this film is perfect, with a beautiful photography, and music in the right time, this movie gives to you a bomb of emotions like none of the last movies that I saw this year have bring me to me.

I really hope that this film came to the theaters to see it again, but I don't think so. It's not for all kind of people, you must to identify with the characters to really enjoy it.
The magic of this film, it's that is so personal, and it has elements like the music that is so hard to find in others films, that make of Tilva Ros, one the best movies that I saw.

PD: I've never couldn't love this movie if LuchO didn't show me before most of the grups that appear in there, that is a fact =)

PD2: I love Stefan!

Smart is the new sexy.

Normally, I don't used to saw TV since I was I a little girl.

I remember that in that time, I enjoyed watching series like Buffy the vampire slayer, or Dawson's Creek, or the anime from the 90's in the nationals channels. But with the years I grow up, and replace the TV for the movies, and that last for many years, almost all my high school.

One day, my little sister told me that she like a new TV program, and she want it to watch it with me. I refuse many time because I allways have to do something better than watch TV. Untill one day, I was bored and turn on the TV. In the Warner Channel was playing a curious serie calling BIG BANG THEORY. I started to see a episode cause' I remember that that was the tv program that my sis love it, in that momement, I couldn't stop to laught for the half-hour that last de show.

And don't know if it was the script, or the actors, or ths story, but I really love it. Since then, I share with my sis washing it, only when I have time. But it's difficult for me, cause allways there are so much to do, so, I decided to download the two seasons in dvd, to watch it every time that I want it with her. Now, in this right moment, I'm downloading the thrid season, cause I couldn't watshing before :D

I also used to watch Dr. House sometmes in the night before to sleep, but I loose it the last season, and now I don't understand the new stories. Maybe later I'll donwload the serie, or maybe not. In the mindtime, I enjoy with Sheldon and company with all the phisics that I never understood in school.

Since I remember, Gatchaman (Fuerza-G) it's been always my beloved cartoon. I was five years old when I discover this anime, and I became adict it, i'm not sure but, I think that it was UCVtv the channel where I saw the cartoon everyday. My ideal was think that I was the girl in the anime called June. In fact, the firts draws that I can remember was the characters of this anime in some papers (I beleve that my mon has it). Then I grow up, and in the TV stopped the transmission of the program, so, for a while, I forgot it.

Now, with the internet, I have the possiblity of review my favorite cartoon, download it and feel me like a child again. Share my childhood with my little brothers, because they like it very much the anime, like I do, even more. In fact, I cant't hardly wait for the premiere the next year of the movie, with advanced technology and specials effects. I feel like a nerd talking about this, but in my free times I still enjoy with those animeseries, the older of course, like Slum Dunk, Dragon Ball Z or Evangelion. But now my sister it's who show me the new anime, and I must to admit that there are very good material, like Nana or Bleach, the anime that makes me rebirth my child side.

Valparaíso, is a port at 1hr and half to Santiago. The first time I went was the 2008, (I went before with my family but I don't remember very good). Since then, I travel there at least twices times every year, for many reasons and celebratings. The last two year, I've been in there for the New Year, and it was one of the happiest moments that I remember in my entire life.

The two years I was passing for a sad time, cause I had many troubles and disapointments; the people that I loved most was the most dangerous for me. But when I arrived to the port, I felt release, and free, and really really happy. All my problems and sadness seems dissapear for a few days.

The two time I went with girls who help me a lot to feel great, and never forget all the adventures that we past, like pass to a cementery in the night and when the guard came we have to throght the beers to the floor and jump almost 2 meters. Or when spend a night in the street dancing a celebrating with the other people, and smocking in the hills with view to the ocean, or eating hot dogs in the square, listening the drums in the streets, enjoying the melon with wine (jajaja), or comming back making "finger", etc. Besides, the fireworks are awsome, and seems it will last forever.

Obviosly I have more favorites places, like Valdivia, every year is like a low to me go there and my classmates for the Cinema Festival. But there it seems always like a dream, and I keep it that way, like a dreams that last only for 4 days. In Valpo I know my reallity, and I put my feets on the grown, and still, I'm happy there. Because you must make your own hapiness and not depend of the others, you have to risk and explore all the places and feelings to feel you alive, and move on.

Valparaíso makes me feel fearless, but insecure sometimes at the same time (because you never know what will happend there), but for all over, even having so much memories and melancholy in those streets, I feel free, and I always want to go back!
