Post VI: "A technological device"

Hello there! Today I am going to talking about my favourite technological device: my laptop.

I have been used the same device since a couple years ago. I adquired it because, my previous computer died and, before having it, I was doing my essays and other university's stuff at home, on a quite old computer. Each time I wanted to do some work, It was really, REALLY irritating, stressing and annoying, It pissed me off have to work there because my computer's home was (and still is) really old (a 1995 model) and I could not even play Minesweeper or Spider Solitaire without imagine that machine exploding in front of my eyes, with all my university works trapped there. It was slow and internet used to get down... specially when I was sending a presentation, essay or any work which implied a good or bad mark there. So I could not bear it anymore and I used to complain about that matter. Doing homework was so hard without a good computer, I had to sleep at my grandparent's place to complete them, because It is not like I could stay at my university's library forever and I had to complete my duties as an university student.

Actually I use my computer to play a lot of online games and, watch movies, series and do my homework. I love my computer because it makes easier my daily life.

Post V: "My future job"

This matter is so difficult to put in words. I've finished High School in 2008, seven years ago; and now my time studying at university is will end soon. I'm a bit scared, because I'm always thinking about that "little" issue. What am I going to do after finish my career?, I do not know really, and is frustrating not know what I exactly want to do, probably, for my entire life (or a huge amount of years). It will be something about arts, for sure, but I can not say something specific; there are a couple areas of my interest to me, all related with patrimonium and heritage, maybe restoration or documentation, I like both.

"Cristo de la meditación", Granada

After a restoration

Before the restoration

And about my ideal job type, I want to make people happy. Some examples are, I don't know, maybe help with the design of index cards to register various pieces of arts in a not well known museum in Chile, or restore an important piece of art in a museum, or an antique from an old man who wants to repair it in order to renember her deceased wife. I want a job which can make my hearth pounding 1000 times in just one minute to after think "I've really helped someone. I'm proud of myself.".

These restorations tools will be mine... someday.

That's all I want, to help people and being myself at the same time.

Post IV: "My favorite song or album"

Hello there!, Today I will talk about my favorite song or album. It was hard to decide, but finally I chose "Enjoy The Silence", from Depeche Mode.

I am going to tell you a bit about Depeche Mode, before writting about "Enjoy The Silence". Depeche Mode is an english band founded in 1980. They mostly  play electronic music and the band currently has three members: Dave Gahan (vocals), Martin Gore (guitar, backing and lead vocals, keyboards) and Andy Fletcher (bass guitars, keyboard, backing vocals). These members are from the original five members who started to play songs as Depeche Mode. I like this band, the type of music they play, to me, is kind of advanced for their foundation time, even now, people can recognize a song made for them.

And... making a lecture of "Enjoy The Silence", I can totally say: "This song is totally my type!", like when someone falls for other person. The lyric completely describes myself. And the ambum which contains this song ("Violator") was relased in 1990, curiously the year that my mother gave birth to me.

Here is the lyric (obviously this doesn't count to complete the required words) and the song's video:

Words like violence break the silence

Come crashing in into my little world

Painful to me, pierce right through me

Can't you understand, oh my little girl?

All I ever wanted, all I ever needed

Is here in my arms

Words are very unnecessary

They can only do harm

Vows are spoken to be broken

Feelings are intense, words are trivial

Pleasures remain, so does their pain

Words are meaningless and forgettable

All I ever wanted, all I ever needed

Is here in my arms

Words are very unnecessary

They can only do harm

All I ever wanted, all I ever needed

Is here in my arms

Words are very unnecessary

They can only do harm

All I ever wanted, all I ever needed

Is here in my arms

Words are very unnecessary

They can only do harm

Enjoy the silence, enjoy the silence

Enjoy the silence

Basically, this song is about silence, quite ironic, don't you think the same way? I'm a quiet person, I say only what I have to say; no more, no less. This song, for me, is the same. Someone can speaks a lot of things, but to me "facts" are more important than empty words. Our world need more action and less people who endlessly talk to complain about the system, etc etc, and don't do anything to change that.

See you next week, guys!
