Digressing about music: songs, dances, melodies, groups, films...

Talking about music, there’s so many memories that came to my mind. Sometimes, when I heard a song that I haven’t listened in a while and an old memory comes to my mind about the time when I used to listen that song. I can remember listening Phoenix by fall out boy or hurricane by 30 seconds to mars, after preu, when me and my friend used to walk from Universidad Catolica to Cal y canto. It is a little nostalgic remember those days, that’s why a song is more than a song, it’s the feeling that come with it.
When I was younger I used to love a lot the boy bands and Disney and all that kind of girly things. Of course, I grow up but I still remember that part of my life and I wouldn’t change a thing.
Today… I don’t have a favorite group, I have in my phone songs of fall out boy, 30stm, Ed Sheeran (I think I love every single song that he had wrote), Adele, DNCE, the killers and many others. I used to listen a lot of song, the old and the new ones and if I like them, I add to my playlist in spotify. I have two Ella Henderson’ songs, I used to listen them in sad days because the lyric is about love, sad. She was a participant of x factor UK like a lot of others singers that I heard sometimes. About old songs, I love some of The Beatles like yesterday or let it be, I also have in my playlist Billie Jean by Michael Jackson.

Moving on into films, the music of titanic has the power to make cry a lot. I think the music is perfect for the movie because awake all the feeling that we supposed to feel. That’s what music is, feelings. 
the song that I listened while I was writing the blog :)

Our amazing human body

Years ago, in my schools days, when the philosophy teacher gave us the name of a book we had to read for the test, the first thing that calls my attention is was the author, because one of my favorite books it was wrote by him, the book was ‘la Resistencia’ by Ernesto Sabato. I can say that this book changes my life a little bit, that’s what a good book it supposed to do in our life and that the reason why before I finish the book, I start to realize about everything around me. I started to look at the places that I have never care before. It made me think in how many times I have been walking for those streets, and how this was the first time that I really see it, the trees, the buildings, the restaurant, the music academy, the people. It’s crazy how we live so fast, just running from one place to another. Now, I try hard, really hard to look around and enjoy the simple things, like the leaves in autumn and how it changes the color when the spring is coming, sometimes is so difficult to enjoy the ride to home because I’m usually tired and the only thing that I want is to get home, take a tea and watch something that I really don’t care in the TV.
I can imagine myself at not having this sense, the vision. I can’t imagine me at not watching my grandmother’s house in the south and the forest at the end of the street. But is a fact that our eyes are not giving us an hd vision forever. There are so many diseases that can affect our vision, like a thrombosis or cataracts.
A cataract is a clouding of the lens in the eyes leading to a decrease in vision. It can affect one or both eyes.  Symptoms may include faded colors, blurry vision, halos around light, trouble with bright lights, and trouble seeing at night. This may result in trouble driving, reading, or recognizing faces.


I can’t imagine myself at not watching everything around me, the beauty that is out everywhere, in every person.

Your best concert ever

When I was younger, in the summer of 2013, when I was about to start my last year at school I went to the Jonas Brothers concert with a friend, in the Movistar arena. This summer was their first time in the Viña del Mar festival, so, it was a summer full of photographs of them, everywhere. I remember that we went to the hotel, here, in Santiago but we couldn't see them. We just saw a member of the band with her wife, it was a little crazy because every girl ran behind them, so, they had to hide in a pharmacy for a while.
This boy band was an important part in my growing up process.
I knew this band many years ago, I can’t even remember when, but I used to watch every movie and serie of them in Disney channel. This group was formed by 3 brothers, Joe, Nick and Kevin. The first time that I saw them in tv was in the Camp Rock movie, I’m not sure if that was their first appearance in tv but I had never seen them in another program. Before the success of the movie, Disney gave them their own serie.
I remember that concert like one of my favorites days ever. It was in a sunny day, full of crazy girls screaming out. It was so excited, the kind of adrenalin that I like. We sing along every song, from the start to the end.
I'm sure if they come back someday, like a band or everyone like a soloist I'm going to be there.
