Bye bye ESO

Since I joined high school all my life has changed.
I was first a little sweet and good child, in 1st of ESO, but then I saw my beard growing and I felt like a man. As I was growing, I started to see the little kids of 1st of ESO like babies. Then I realize that I grew up. Finally, now, I can see my spent years in High school, and I wouldn't repeat them again, because I think that to grow as a person, we have to look up to the future.

Paradox

Probably you all know what a paradox is, but you just know a few of them. For all of you that don't know what it is, a paradox is a question which has no answer, or at least not a logical one. Today, I'm gonna show you all some questions that can make your mind explote so easy. Let's go!


I wanted to start slowly, I promise, but this surpasses me. Let's analize.
Here we have Pinocchio saying that his nose is going to grow. Pinocchio's nose grows just when he's lying, but if he says that the nose is going to grow, he's not lying...Your turn.



Another one, this can't be sane. This has no logical sense. My god, I'm a scientist, I'm an empirical guy, and these questions with no answer annoy me. If one is true the other one can't be false... Let's move on.


Okay, I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I quit, no more paradox. This one beats me. Its just...Mindblown.

Are videogames art?

This is one of the biggest questions for all the gamer community, are the videogames art or not?
Well, to answer this, we may know the definition of art, which is the expression or aplication of human skill and imagination. It isn't a very complete definition, but it's enough to our little work today.
In reality, videogames are just an upgrade of the cinema, the music and the paints. Why? So simple. The videogames are a mixture of these three arts adding also the quality of being playable. So, then we have that by the definition it can't fit in, but it's just an improvement of the other arts, so, what then?
Being subjective, I would say that not every game is art, as not every film is it, or every painting as well. It's a lot more for your own to determinate it. So, I would say a big big YES.

Mosh?

Maybe this title doesn't make any sense for many of you but, what about this?

This, is Eminem. If you don't know him you may life under a rock, or under the sea... or maybe you are just still using Internet Explorer. He has many songs, but recently I've been hearing to one called Mosh, upon which he expresses his dissapointment with the Iraq war, and trying to open people's eyes:

I give my sight to the blind, my insight through the mind

I exercise my right to express when I feel it's time

I also found really fun the way how he finally culminates his song by saying:

Stomp, push, shove, mush, Fuck Bush! Until they bring our troops home (c'mon).

I don't know if he would do something like "Fuck Obama!" actually, but definetly our dark skinned president is a thousand times better than Bush, or at least he doesn't show without any kind of respect his economic interests.

I also asked my father about the reaction of the war in Iraq, and he told me that in general, it wasn't really accepted by the average people, so my question is why did the government accepted that carnage? Aren't we a democracy? So now, more than ever..FUCK BUSH!

Experiences

I have already done a backflip, which was the scariest trick to do, and thankfully, one of my best friends helped me doing it. I really enjoyed that moment, even more with my friends supporting me.

I have already won a Taekwondo competition. It was in France last year. I was really nervous because my oponent was really tall and he looked quite strong, but with my family and friends cheering me up, I finally did it.

I have already been to Greece. In fact, I've been there at least 10 times, because my parents met and also studied there, so we all love to be Greek at least once a year.

I haven't done the Route 66 yet. It's been one of my biggest dreams since I saw a youtuber series of him doing it. Maybe if one day I can, I wish I could do it with a Harley Davidson.

Connected to this last one, I haven't bought a Harley Davidson yet. I decided I wanted a Harley when I saw an old man with this kind of motorbikes, looking like one of the Motörhead members, with his leather jacket, the American flag in his bag and leather boots 'till his knee.

Finally, I haven't been a father yet,(fortunately). Even I joke about this, to raise a child by my own is my biggest dream. I think I wanted to be the cool father that every little boy wants to. Maybe when I am a father, I'll be one of these annoying fathers that everyone hates, but can't know it, for the moment.

Romantic movie

This film isn't romantic at all, but it has romantic scenes where the protagonist (John Reid),  has love tension with Rebecca Reid(his brother's wife).
I chose this one because it's not a normal love story. In this case, John and Rebecca had a relationship until he went to study in San Francisco. They wrote one another, but after 9 years of distant love, they finished their relationship. After that, Rebecca married Dan Reid(John's brother). And when the film starts, we can see how Dan tells John that she would always prefer him, and to take care of her.
And at the end of the movie we can see how John kisses Rebecca, which is kind of weird, because in the end,she happens to be his dead brother's wife.
Anyways, I love it.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site

The place I decided is the historic center of Rome, because I love the spirit you can feel in Rome, specially in Fontana di Trevi. I think there you can feel like a real artist of the XV century, just by walking alone in the streets(which is quite difficult, this city is always full of turists). As a curiosity, there is a psichological disease, which is called "the artist sindrome" and it makes you to feel like if you don't deserve to walk by the same streets as Da Vinci or Miguel Angelo, so you finally finish killing yourself or destroying any kind of culture's work. I think that maybe that's the reason of why a crazy man would destroy La Gioconda, or



It was inscripted in 1980.

Love song

 
[Chorus:] 
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We feel how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise mama's gon' be alright

And if you ask me to
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
I'mma give you the world
I'mma buy a diamond ring for you
I'mma sing for you
I'll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
I'mma break that birdie's neck
I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
And make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (ha ha)

In this song, Eminem tells to his daughters(specially to Hailie), and how she can't be sad, even if her mum isn't there, because he says that Hailie is a strong little girl, who has to stay strong.

This type of love is a father-daughter love, and Eminem is a really good demonstration of it, having his daughter's face tattoed in his arm.

Specially I love the last chorus with his result verse, where it says that his little lady must not cry, and how if she asks him, Eminem is going to give her a mockingbird, or the entire world, and a diamond ring. But if the mockingbird doesn't sing and the diamond ring doesn't shine, he is going to break the mockingbird's neck, and make the jeweler who sold the ring eat every carat of the ring.

Italy

I really like this picture because it reminds me how great was this trip, and specially I loved the Florence part. We took this picture in Siena's Duomo, exactly in the library, which is full of incredibly beautiful gregorian canthics. I enjoyed every single minute of our stay in this Duomo, but I would thank a couple of hours more to see better this amazing building. I felt like it was built for me.

BCN

This is my interview to the tourists, I just did one because all the others tell me that they had no time, or they don't wanted to be recorded. Anyway, this one is really short because the girl said me that she had no time, so it had to be less than a minute.

Ramsey's curse?

I'm not supersticious, just to clear up. But this series of coincidences is just amazing. Bound to Alan Rickman death's news, I wanted to explain the Ramsey's curse. Aaron Ramsey is a british soccer player who is the Grim Reaper of the football world. From 56 goals that he scored, 19 had relation with 19 VIP deaths. Some of them as famous as Osama Bin-Laden, Steve Jobs or David Bowie. Some of us may ask:"What thinks Ramsey about this?". He answered that in a interview, where the periodist asked him if he find funny the "curse". His answer, sharp:"No, I don't find it funy".
Even without being supersticious, it's really weird that after scoring a goal, and with a margin of a day(maximum), somebody famous could die, but, does the curse really exist or not?

Short hair

Today,4th February of 2016, for second time, I shave my hair as a symbol of cancer grief. I think that cancer is a really bad disease, which must have cure to save a lot of lifes. This illness is daily bread in my life, and I don't know if it has to do with heredity, but a lot of close members of my family suffered that pain. And it's a setback to seeing one of your most loved people in your life hair dropping off. So to empatize with the victims I cut my hair really short, for second time. Last year I had this idea thinking about how to represent a disease in a radical way, to make aware people about how near is cancer to us, and in any moment it can shake and smash our lifes from 0 to a disaster.

Alan Rickman died

Yesterday, the worldwide famous actor Alan Rickman died,due of cancer.He had been working on films like Harry Potter as the strict Professor Snape,or as Hans in Die Hard film.
The family of the british star confirmed this 14th of January that he has died, after been diagnosed pancreas cancer. He was a really good actor and I loved his role as Professor Snape the most, even being jerk with Harry. But I also know that it's just the job, because when he died, all the actors from Harry Potter's films were posting Instagram pictures of one of his most famous quotes(extract from Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, in a conversation between Albus Dumbledore and Snape):
-After all this time?
-Always.
I think Snape it's a character which you must hate in five books, but at the 6th one, you have to love him because he looks as a real person, who has real feelings (definitely not as He Who Must Not Be Named), and after Lily's death, he still looks realer). I will really miss this actor and all his legacy to the Potterheads.
