A Book I've Enjoyed Reading

Honestly, I'm not a good reader, because I always get distracted for any reason.

But there are some books that I have really enjoyed. One of them was "Revival" by Steven King, an american writer.

I read this book a year ago even though I bought it more than two years ago. This is what i mean when i say that i'm a bad reader. The reason i decided acquire this book is because i like the genre of horror, so i expected feel unconfortable reading a book of an author who is famous for write about this topics.

Anyway, the book tell the history of Jamie Morton, a child who in 1968 live whit his family in a small town in New England. A day like any other Jamie was playing with his soldiers figures when a stranger interrumps him, that man was the new preacher of the village, Charles Jacobs. Soon the two will share a close bond, based on their fascination with experiments with electricity.

I remember why it was difficult for me to read this, i thought that horror moments would be present from the beginning, but it took more that just the first pages. So i got bored and stopped reading for a while.
When i started over, several decades later, Jamie was fallen into drug addiction and live a nomadic life playing guitar for different bands in bars across the country. Then he crosses paths with Jacobs again, resulting in something that goes much further than a pact with the devil.

The book is quite entertaining in my opinion, it keeps you hoping that Jamie's mental health will stand up to overcome the difficulties.

My Favourite Place

El Convento, San Antonio

In the last summer, in the beggining of february, my friend Nicolás invite me and other friends to go to San Antonio because his family has a house there. Specifically in El Convento, a rural zone. The place have a lot of nature and free space, even the neighbors' houses are far away, that was great for all of us because we didn't have to be carefull with the noise we made.

The first time we went there, we were just six persons, and it was pretty special because i could met to amazing people and also share more with the ones i already know. We arrived the place in the nigth, left our stuff in the rooms and quickly start to hangout and party. Of course we were drunk and high, in some sense that helped for no feel the cold. With a bonfire and the stars we finished the nigth having a incredible long conversations.

The second time we went to "el campito" (that´s how we called it), we tried to be more carefull with the place. We really tried but it´s hard to keep the house clean when there are five or six persons drunk and high all the day (i include me). Anyway, as the first time this was an amazing and very relaxing trip. There is a lot of pictures from both trips, but many are blurred or don´t show the place, so this is a good one.

A Photograph You Like


This photo was taken in one of the highest mountains of Cochamó. Two summers ago i went with four friends in a travel to the south of Chile. This trip began in February 2016 in Paillaco, and i say it started there because it was the moment when the five of us met.

We travel for many places, Chillán, Osorno, Puerto Octay, Cascada, Ralún, Ensenada, Valdivia, and more. We never knew where we would spend the night, but it wasn't a reason to stop enjoying the moment. I remember it was very hard for us to get to that place in the photo, because in was a seven hours hike up. But it was worth it because of the view.

One day, in Puerto Octay, we arrived to the shore of Llanquihue Lake. Don Pedro is an old man who live near there, he was very helpfull and friendly with us, he share with us some food and some stuff to practice fishing. Anyway, the point is that the travel was amazing.

Free Time Post

I couldn't say that it's my favorite sport but for a long time i've been playing baby football every sunday of the week. All it begins when a small group of people from San Miguel met every sunday to play, this become in something bigger when others teams added to this practice. At some point it was better to create a tournement, that's how at this moment there is a female tournement of baby football. 

So one sunday i just went to see some matches with my friends, and talking with one of them (who was in a team playing the tournement) i came in to his team and play with them and all the other people.

The style of how you have to play baby football is totally conditioned for the size of the court and the material that the floor is made (it could make the match more fast or slow). Anyway, the game is faster because the space that each player has is very small, so you have to be quick to think and pass the ball or other action.

Talking about another topic, there is a music album that i've been listen for a long time. At the first moment i feel like it was pretty boring but now i find some nice and really cool tracks. The album is "The Now Now" from Gorillaz. It has a flow very energic and  crazy. I listen this album every week, with my friends and my family. 

3 reasons of why i like baby football: it's nice to have a different activity in the week, even more if you do it with your friends and the feeling of score a goal is great.

3 reasons of why i like the album, first, i love Gorillaz, second and third reason, it has greats song and i can enjoy it in every moment of my day.

My favourite piece of technology

Thinking about what is my fabourite piece of technology ins´t something that i commonly do. I realize that i use a lot of technology in my life but i don´t feel comfortable with that fact all the time. 

Yesterday my friend Paoko gave me his old cellphone, i spend two months without a phone so i get used to be like that. In other way i like more the computer because i can play some games in a emulator of Super Nintendo, but is not important neither. It´s like the tablet that my little brother recieve from our grandmother, i use it a lot to put music on Spotify, see some videos on Youtube or play Free Fire online with my friend. Talking about it i´m really bad at that game, but it doesn´t matter because it´s really fun.

What i really enjoy to do is art, it would be great to have or even know how to use a Drawing Tablet to do some crazy stuff on Illustrator or Photoshop. This days i have been collecting money to buy some day that technology.

So my favourite piece of technology are my prismacolor markets, i got them in my first year of university and i felt in love of them. I do a lot of illustrations with all kinds of colors, like a draw of Donkey Kong or one from the Tarantino´s movie Pulp Fiction, it spend like a year and a half and somebody stole them. Now i can´t draw my ideas with all the colors but i learn a lot of the other pencils that i have.
