The best concert ever!

The best concert I have ever been to was "Gladiator in concert" in 2014 at Movistar Arena. This show was kind of special because it was about the Ridley Scott's Oscar-winning film Gladiator. While the actual movie was being played on a big screen, there was a British orchestra playing the music in front of it. The ensemble was honored with the presence of Lisa Gerard, singer of the Australian musical project Dead Can Dance, a new age and dark wave musical group. The latter was extraordinary because Lisa in fact participated in the original soundtrack of the movie. This show was memorable to me because it was the first time I heard a live orchestra and went to a concert all by myself. People around me went in complete silence when the show started, and once Lisa finished singing the first song people started clapping loudly. I remember seeing someone crying while she was performing and I couldn't blame her, it was sublime. I don't remember plenty of details on the show but I can remind very well the way it made me feel. At times I felt as I was in the middle of nowhere; just me and the music. I didn't know music could make me feel such strong emotions, it was truly touching.

My Future Job

Imagen
I always liked to work. I got my first job when I was 15, and given the fact that I am still a student, I can only apply for jobs during summertimes. The ones I like most are office jobs; I like the idea of having a cup of coffee every morning as I organize plenty of paperwork, and if I can do that listening to music simultaneously and having lots of tiny «post it» stickers on my desk, it is even better (I love the «post it» stickers!). I honestly feel lucky to be studying Architecture because someday it could give me a good opportunity to have a decent office job. I hope a big company hire me full time once I am done with college. It can be either that, or start my own business, who knows, a degree gives you automatically plenty of possibilities. Start my own thing is something that I have been thinking a lot in the past few months; a close friend who is studying Engineering told me about starting an association once we finish our studies. I think that is a great idea, and I am su...

Santiago Stories

Imagen
I have thousands of subway and bus stories, but I can not remember all the good ones at this moment. So I am going to talk about one that I experienced with my closest friends. It happened in 2015; we were in our second year at this University and we wondered how the parties were in other Universities around, so we decided to go to Universidad de Santiago (Usach), which is known for making the best parties. Despite having some troubles to get in, we had a good time. The party ended when the police arrived because everything was out control; they even used tear gas to disperse the crowd. So we ran our way out and took a bus straight to the Mc'Donalds store located in Alameda, close to FAU. We were hungry, and while we were eating we started talking about how good the party was, nobody truly wanted to go home! So one of my friends offered her house for us to keep partying at her place. We could have continued the party there, but going to her place meant taking the «mythical» 210 ...

Wanting to visit Iceland

Imagen
Someday, if I have the chance, I would like to visit Iceland. I knew about the country when I was 17, through an interview I read about Sigur Rós, one of my favorite bands from Iceland along with Björk. After that, I started to read more about the culture of Iceland and also delight myself with pictures of the beautiful landscapes people can watch there, which as I have heard are influenced by the Scandinavian heritage. I know they have lots of legends and an interesting folklore, that is what I like the most. I would like to visit the Vatnajökull glacier, the biggest one in the country, besides their lakes, caves and mountains. I think it is a perfect country to connect with nature, it would be cool to learn more about the local flora and wildlife there. I heard locals are very friendly and respectful with tourists, which motivates me to visit the country even more. Iceland is knowing for being one of the countries with lowest rates of violence and crime, which I think is a impo...
