Traveling and Boxing


Hello everyone, today I will write about the activities that I would like to do and it is traveling, I would like to trip to a few places or cities out of Chile, and the principal reason it’s because I am a little bored of the people of the city where I live and would like to know other people and the activities that they do and too I would like to know quiet places out of here.

Other activity that I would like to do is to boxing, this combat sport has always called my attention, I think that is very pasional and a linker between the body and the spirit, and in the ring you can demostrate that the strength of the mind and the heart can be expressed fighting.

Personally, I think that i would be very good in this sport, because I am in a good physical condition and I have all the desire necessary to win a fight. Even that, I’m 19 years old and to do this sport you need to start learning and practicing more young than that, but I will practice boxing anyway like a hobbie.

The David


Hi everyone, the work of art that I choose to talk about is the “David”, a sculpture created during the time period from 1501 to 1504 by the famous Renacentist artist Miguel Angel.


I like this masterpiece of art, because, out of the meaning that really has (the previous moment of the fight between David and Golliat), I think that only a genius can make a work like that, with all the details and very human.


The first time that I saw this masterpiece, was in a picture in my school, It really amazed me , because it shows the anathomy of the human body very well,the size is amazing too, it has 17 feet, (like 5,10 meters) and another reason is the fact that it is a masterpiece that has more than five hundred years, so that means the extra work of create it, because the tools of those years, were more difficult to use .


The “David”, has been reproduced and imitated a lot of times, a well-knowed example of this is the David in Buffalo, New York.


Well, that was all, I guess that everyone knows this work of art, it isn't my favourite, but it is one of the most knowed of all the world and still admired even with the past o the centuries.

Burn

Hello, like it is a free post, i will talk about one of the best metal/hard rock songs of all the time and right now I'm listening it. At least, for me, and it is called Burn, from the legendary band Deep Purple, and really now that I think, this is not much that I can write, If you enjoy rock energic or metal you have to listen this song, it has more than thirty years, but it is still wonderful.

Holidays D:

I think that the best holyday I ever had was the holidays of the last summer, I had a trip to Cancún to visit my father, because he is living there for almost two years. I traveled with one of my best friends: “El Roa” or “ÑEH!”. We were going to be in México for two months, the night of the 19th December we left and were supposed to back the 23rd of February, but for different reasons, principally familiar reasons, my friend came back to Chile before the expected, If I’m not wrong, he returned the 7th of February, so I returned two weeks after him.

We first took a flight from Santiago to Ciudad de México (or D.F), the duration of the trip it’’s about eight hours, and then from there we took the flight to Cancún. My dad went to the airport to receive us. He was very happy and me too, after all, we passed more than a year without a sight, we only communicate by telephone (sometimes) and by e-mail or chat.

The principal reason of why I remember this holiday and why it is one of the best that I have ever had in my life, was because I had the chance to see my father after a long time, and more, because I really enjoy the trips to places that I don’t know, and a lot more If I have the possiblity to trip out of the country. Anyway, the things that I did there were activities like going to the beaches, hanging out the nights, walk a lot knowing different places, etc.

Donnie Darko


Hi, like the topic of the post is anyone that i liket, I will write about one of my favourite movies, "Donnie Darko", the movie is directed by Richard Kelly and stars Jake Gyllenhaal making the paper of Donald ("Donnie")

This movie isn't the tipical Hollywood movie of action and the happy ending. This movie has a relevance for me because it is a mix of drama, paradox between the space and time, thriller and principally science fiction, all those elements called my attention.

The movie is about a teenager (Donald), and he has a mental sickness, that reflected in the fact that in the start of the movie he has to take some medicine and this is repeated everyday that pass in the history (Other thing that makes a Little special this movie is the fact that the history is according to the days go by, that means that the history becomes more complex with the pass of the days, that are in total twenty eight), but it is never shown wich sickness it is.
I could spend more time describing the movie, but I think that is useless, if you are interested in watching a good movie that includes concepts of time, space-time, travel in time, parallel realities and that kind of things, just watch the movie, is the only advice that I can give you. Personally, I have to watch this movie two times to start understanding it, it isn’t a movie so easy to see it, but it is 100 % recommended if you enjoy these topics.

Author Irvine Welsh also has a cameo appearance as hapless drug dealer Mikey Forrester. They haven't aspiration in the during the couse of the life.

I saw the movie in the filosofia class for the study of the social conduct in the adicts youngs. The adict don't work, don't couple , dont'n responsabilitys either moral, only worry by obtain drugs for your adiction.
I like the movie because explain the youngs problems dependen drugs and your relation with the society.

Writting about a classmate blog.

Well, I have to write about Ruddy's blog, he has written six post, about his favourite movie, his favourite activity, he too has written about the big earthquake of Chile, etc. That means, all the works that we have to do in class.

My first impression of his blog, was that it has an interesting blog, because he mixed the colours and the photographs that he used in a very nice contrast, and the images that he used called my attention, due to is not very usually for me to see images of Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, for example, and the possittion of the posts that he wrote and the pictures that he used are in armony visually for me.

He publish a variety of topics, for that I guess that he is a person that enjoys many activities and he can “mix” them.
One thing that the could do, to make more interesting his blog, is to publish a video of one of the topics that he choose, but is a very nice blog anyway.
