a country i would like to visit!

First of all, there are many-many countries I would like to visit, so it's a question that request a lot of thinking for me. I can't choose only one, I think, so I would say first of all Mexico. I have always wanted to travel to Mexico, I think it's such an interesting place witch a rich culture. Visually, I like everything, their art, their architecture, and culturally too, I'm very interested in their history and cosmology, and although I think I might have a few problems with the food, since I'm no really into spicy things, I'm willing to try as much as my paladar allows me if one day I get the chance to go there. Also I must admit that I would like to go with my mom, since she is really a fan of Mexican culture too and I think a grand part of why I would like to go is for her.  There are many countries in Latinoamerica in general I would like to go, but if I get the chance to leave the continent, I would like to go to Asia and go to Korea.

a person i'd like to meet and why that person is angela davis

 I've admired a lot of women in my life since a young age. I was lucky that my mum was not a feminist itself but had a really anti patriarchal ideology when she raised me, so she was aware I would learn about a lot of strong independent and revolutionary women while I was growing up. So, when I read the blog topic of this week, I immediately knew I was going to write about one of them. I thought about musicians I really love like Mon Laferte or Lee Hi or Mitski, only to tell them about how much I love their music and how it help me to go through really rough times of my life. I thought about actresses I admire like Jennifer Lawrence, Lupita Nyong'o or Anya Taylor-joy (the love of my life, oh my god, I would really LOVE to met her, sure it would be the best moment of my life, but whatever) and say to them about how much talent they have and how much I appreciate their hard work in every interpretation, because they have to go through such awful things in that industry.  But at t

the soundtrack of my life aka my own coming of age movie

Okay, I've OBVIOUSLY thought about this a lot, since I love music and I love movies and I love daydreaming because life is miserable so you have to cope some how, and tbh I actually have a whole playlist about this, and I've decided many year ago that definitely a movie of my life would start with FULL MOON by Black Ghost, from Twilight (2008) so soundtrack, with a shot of me running late to work, or school, or to wherever place I’m going to, probably because something bad happened to me.   that said, i really think Twilight's soundtrack was a big influence to me, since was one of the first things i heard for myself and not because my mom or my brother told me so, I met bands and musicians that keep by my side and on playlist till today such as Florence and The Machine, St. Vincent, Paramore, Muse, SIA and Sleeping At Last, and a lot of other artist that I listen casually. I think was one of the first times I really felt music on another level My music genre is kinda divers

"english language challenge"

English in university... well, to be honest, this is the very first english class I have in university. When I did the english test after I got accepted in my career, I got English III so here I am. Sure, I'd have enjoyed it more if I'd had the opportunity of ACTUALLY being in a classroom, speaking english directly with the professor, and if i wouldn't had as many problem as I had when I had to connect to virtual classes. But, despite of that, it was interesting, I really learned and solve a few questions I had in classes and I really, really like to write in english, so blogging helped me. My english isn't perfect, at the contrary, I think i have a lot of vocabulary problem and my gramatic sucks, but I defend myself. I learned english on my own, I entered the internet very young and my father works in ships, so he has to travel a lot with other people and had to learn to speak english, and he help me to start learning too. I learned thank to music and movies, but, I

stop putting women against each other!

lately it seems that a new competition was born in Chile with respect to Chilean female pop. Who’s better? Paloma Mami, Francisca Valenzuela, Princesa Alba? but my real question is Does it really matter? What with put women against each other AS ALWAYS?  not only in pop music, but in art in general, there has always been a competition between women, everytime a new pop star comes out, news paper and television create whole enmity between the girls who are already in the media and the new addition. while, when we talk about male artist this is not really important, somehow, all man fix just right in the public eye, doesn't matter how many of them are. it is necessary to mention who is the best woman, because this is uncommon, it is uncommon for a woman to achieve success on hew own and this seems to appear now in Chile. Princesa Alba, Paloma Mami, Francisca Valenzuela, Mon Laferte, Cami, Ana TIjoux, it seems that it is important to say who of these women wears the crow, but all

a subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

Well, I have to say this is really sad because not only i couldn't enjoy my favorites subject, documentary sound, who is a practical one, this semester due to covid-19, but also i had several problems to connect to online classes. However I had a class that I genuinely enjoyed, and it's call "research and documentary script". i like because it was, somehow, more dynamic  and we had to do, of course a little research. We had to work around an object and write a little journal about or thoughs about its story and its affiliations, for example, my object was an old clock my grandfather give me when i was ten years old, i also had to pick a photograph, and i chose, precisely, a photo my mom keeps of my grandpa, herself and her sisters in the beach, almost 50 years ago. So I got to remember and learn more about him, my family, my mother and myself, and I really enjoyed that. the teacher said and showed us examples about how most of documentary directors use this technique

However, I felt in love with the way he portraits class issues in the film, as a sociolo
