Historia de Cronopios y Famas

During my life I have had the opportunity to know several books. Really, I enjoy so much reading books. One of books that has impressed me was “Historia de cronopios y famas” writing by Julio Cortázar. This book is a surrealistic work about tree “character”. One of them is concept invented by him totally: “Cronopios”. Cronopios are “people” that are outside of events on book. They are like “antisocial” persons that we know in our days. The others are “Famas”, totally different to Cronopios. Famas are important people like presidents, people who advocate a established order. Finally, “Esperanza” that are intermediate characters who are dominated for Cronopios and Famas.

This book has several 47 short stories based in characters mentioned previously. “Camello declarado indeseable” is a charming story, my favorite story.

Of this book has impressed me for the world that how Cortázar built about this period in Argentina, the mains different between social classes are portrayed of interesting way in the book. Exist others books that has impressed me but not much like this. I like when authors to seduce readers.

I think that every book it’s different to another, every fantastic world is built with elements that are to different persons. I always have thought that each person has a one book.

I recommend this book to everybody who wants know a new world, more creative and poetic.

The choice is our

To learn to care our enviroment for me is like a valoric practice which it’s learned in a family an then in school, since that children are in full development. For that, it’s necessary schools commitment with ecology, schools that use ecological things and produce it. But, insist that families are the main agent to educate behaviors in childrens.

I am not a person full committed to the ecology, but I’m agree with care the nature, not to contaminate with trash, not smoke. Usually I walk a lot, when I need go to some place, I walk and I like so much. It’s one of activities that more I do, it’s addictive. I walk sections so long, like from Los Leones state until Los Héroes station, always with good music. I have thought buy a bicycle, but I am afraid the cars, and Santiago hasn’t good cycle path.

Never I have participated in a some eco-organisations because sometimes I think that this organisations pass the limits, and they take it very serious some things, and lose their heads, blocking other opinions. I think that all extreme is bad. Must exist a balance.

I would do news initiatives in education, for to achieve a progress to change the conscience of the society, but the concern should start in the government, in the public politics. I think that people on Ñuñoa ask something very possible: to build building with no more of 4 floor.

Santiago is a city crowded with buildings, are a few the places without buildings, Ñuñoa, Bellavista, are two of them.

People thinks that for have more building we are a modern city, but the evolved thinking is first! For that education have a main rol, to promote new people with more conscience about our quality of life and our priorities.

Study Links Bedtime Rules to Better Skills in Preschool Children

Recent studies indicate new results about the incidence of the hours for to sleep in preschool children. To go to bed every day at the same time promotes the development of areas for language and mathematics, the study of SIR International in California confirms it, not in the case that children whose go to bed after nine, the journal Sleep Medicine declare.

Doctors suggest to parents to use rules with children and have bedtime’s routines like reading books, or telling stories. Erika Gaylor suggests.

Also, a separate study found a relation between to sleep better and run faster. The study shows that to have more hours of sleep the players ran faster in short sections and the sleepy don’t appear during the day. Extend the sleepy during some weeks before competition is a good strategy “to reduce a sleep a night”, and to motivate a good performance, Cheri Mah declare.

Into the Wild

Into the wild is a one of my favorite movie. It’s directed by Sean Penn, the script too. It was premiered in 2007. The main characters are Emile Hirsch, William Hurt, winner of Oscar award, Marcia Gay Harden nominated like best actress and Catherine Keemer, nominated too.

The film is based on a book written by Jon Krakaur in 1996, about a real fact.

The history is about a boy, Christopher McCandless, who has around 23 years old and has a normal life living with his parents and sister. His family is very wealthy, consecuence of that, he is bored of his life, he is not interesting in money like his family, he has others interests, human interest. After graduating from university, Chris decide to start a trip to Alaska. The trip to Alaska is the plot of the film.

It’s a beautiful movie, emotionally intense, with amazing landscapes. It has some scenes where the script is so emotional that generates that you think about your life.

Well, the music is fantastic too. Eddie Vedder was who worried of the soundtrack. The songs are accurate for each scene. “Guaranteed” is very special song for me. Really recommend the movie and the soundtrack for sensitve people like me.

The topics are very human, justly we need of that reality in our days, where it seems that we do not care about anything around us.

Laboatorio

Santiago is a city very versatile. It have many places which you can go and enjoy with the family or with your boyfriend, whatever…

There is a place that I like me so much, it is localized very near to Parque Forestal and Bellas Artes subway station, in the street Esmeralda 371. It is a café so beautiful and welcoming place, even thought it’s very small , the ambient is comfortable and original.

Well… the name of this place is “Laboatorio”, started like “Boa” but the new name is related with a “Laboratory of senses”. This is directly connect with the food too.

The specialty of Laboatorio are the tea. It’s has many kinds of teas with a paticular taste. When I went with my sister, we tasted the “magic tea”, it was a flower which with the time it’s opened slowly in the water and you must make a wish during those happened. It was a moment so beautifil!

The decor is very artistic, with warm colors and paintings acording to place.

Another interesting thing about café is that has a samall second floor with a couple os litlle tables and one kind of round bed where you can eat, like in your home!

I recommend this place for quiet people, who like peaceful places for have a conversation with some special.

Music to fly

It’s difficult to me try to talk about my favorite music. Are many the bands that like me, but there are some more special than others. The most important are rock’s bands, especially classic rock. I enjoy so much listen bands like Led Zeppelin, The Doors, The Beatles, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Janis Joplin, Jimmi Hendrix and others. I listen this music since I was a child, because my older brother likes it. Then, when I was a teenager I found new bands that attract me with their music. Even I had the chance to assist to two concerts. I went to see Pearl Jam in the year 2005 and Radiohead in the year 2009, this was a moment amazing in my life, I think that there are not something better that to be in a full place to people that enjoy with the same music than me. Feel the music so strong in my ears from the band that I like, doesn´t compare with nothing.
Also I had the privilege to see Roger Waters in the year 2007, who did a spectacular show compiling the disc Dark Side of the Moon completely.

The experience that I had in the three concerts is very fresh in my memory, even more when I listen some songs from their. I like much the last album of Radiohead (In Rainbows), and also Kid A and Ok Computer. The songs that I more listen of those disc are: Idioteque, Weird Fishes/Arpeggi, Jigsaw falling into Place, The Tourist, Let Down, Paranoid Androids, and many others.

I can´t leave to mention the Eddie Vedder music, when I saw the movie Into the Wild I loved the Soundtrack, which is more melancholic and slow that the typical songs of Pearl Jam.

The music is indispensable to make our own soundtrack of life.

Everyone need to travel

I would like to know many places, but is difficult choose only one. I think that I would choose Denmark. I know very little about this country, but one day of this week, news showed that Denmark was a country very comfortable to live. The people from these place have more conscience about care the air and planet. A good quality of live is an important point for to go with the family, or for have family there.

There, everyone use like transport a bicycle, which help to people have a good phisycal state, without stress. Besides people that doing exercises for 30 min every day, live for a long time. That like me so much, I love ride a bicke in places with beautiful landscapes.

I think that Denmark could be a good choose for stady too. The image from Tv transmit me a special sensation like if everyone were so happy. I imagine that Education in Denmark have a good quality like the life of their residentes, but I know so much about these.

Even though Chile is a country very friendly, I think that public politics aren’t the better for needs of people who really wants a differents things, like a better education, health, home, etc.
