About a
year ago, I started to study psychology. The reason why I entered this major
was to become a sport psychologist. Right now I'm not that sure of it, but I
think it would be really great to work as one. I'm quite certain that it has
all i want in a job, the outdoor placement, being around something i like, and
it will probably be different every day from the next one. I have been told
that this job might not have the greatest salary, but at a certain point I left
behind the idea of having a luxurious life. Well, even though it is stated that
I want my job to be around sports, I haven’t said which one, and that is
gymnastics and others that are related to it. I also like some team sports like
cheerleading and volleyball, but I don’t prefer those, I think if you have to
worry about a whole group of persons you won’t be able to help them in a
significant level. That’s why I think it’s better to only work with individual
sports athletes instead of teams. By the way, I gravitate towards those sports
because I used to practice them. Even though I’ve developed that much this
prospection, I’m not that sure anymore if this is the direction which I want to
develop my career.

My favorite writer
I have to say, I'm not quite the great
reader, nevertheless I've read some books. One of those is A Clash of Kings, which belongs to the A Song of Ice and Fire saga, which were written by George Raymond Richard Martin. He was born in New Jersey in September 20 of 1948. He is an American novelist and short story writer, screenwriter and tv producer. One of his biggest quirks when it comes to writing is his absolute control of every action of his characters, he uses quite usually resources like the Chejov’s Gun, Red Herring, Planting and Payoff, which might be considered basic at writing, but when used well are fantastic. In my opinion his biggest creation corresponds to A Song of Ice and Fire, a series of books which has become one of the most watched tv shows ever (Game of Thrones), it’s also a best seller around the globe. The point that really made me love this series is the way that he “kills” his characters, the biggest example of why it is a good thing is the “Red Wedding”, a really great plot twist if you ask me. Now, did you know him? have you read him? Did you like it?, leave a comment about it if you like.

My favorite TV series
How Game of Thrones was slowly getting murdered
Book Illustration of the "Iron Throne" |
Today I’ll
talk about what was my favorite tv show. It is an HBO series that’s available
in HBO GO. First, I loved how there wasn’t really a “good” side which you think
it was always doing right, all characters were really humans in the way they
behaved, and that’s kind of what made this series great.
On the other side
there was all this political drama, this is the plot device of the series, the “iron
throne”, which was very interesting and complex at some point, I loved the
foreshadowing and subtexts of every plot-twist and that they felt unexpected even
though viewer should knew that was going to happen. Nevertheless, in their lasts
seasons it started to develop predictable, some characters were so powerful in
political and belligerent terms that was obvious who would get the throne or at
least who might win the war, and then the story changed into a manichaeistic
scenario with the night king plot, then that was dumped, it felt rushed and quite
weird how the story kept changing its focus to then end in something that
wasn't really what should have happened in terms of plot device and what
characters aspired. That was it, I’d like to know what you think about the end
of this series if you’ve watched it, so if you feel like it leave a comment.

The best concert I've had
The best Festival I've assisted to
Some years ago, there was this big rock and metal
festival for which I was super excited to assist. At that moment I was only
fifteen y/o, it´s quite nostalgic to think about it. My parents wouldn’t allow
me to go all by myself, so I asked a few friends if they could accompany me, I successfully
got a “yes” by all of them. Getting back to the fest, it is called “Santiago
Gets Louder”, it was their first version back in 2015 at Hangares Suricato.
The
headliners of that version were Faith no more, System of a Down and Deftones, we
were looking forward impatiently for them to present, but they were scheduled
to be the last bands in the two big scenarios, nevertheless a lot of assistants
were really energetic all day long.
A lot of things happened that day, but most
of them are doomed by the fact that this fest was during Sunday and we´ll have
a test at Monday's morning. Thankfully, a friend’s parents went for us, since
the concert ended late at night. It was really fun.
