Aquarius

The people who has born between 22 January and 19 February is Aquarius. I was born 4 February, so I am Aquarius. I didn't believe in the horoscop, but when I read the characteristics of the people who are Aquarius, I realized that I'm identical as they say. 

"The Aquarius have got a strong and atractive personality. There are two kind of Aquarius: one is shy, sensible and patient. The other is exuberant, sharp and he can hide the depths of his personality into a frivolous air."
I think that I've got a little bit of both. I'm a little shy, very sensible, but I'm not very patient. And yes, I often hide the depths of my personality into a frivolous air... 

They say we are the more tolerants and without prejudices of all the zodiac, because we can see the two sides of the arguments. The truth is that I'm quite tolerant...

"An Aquarius is sincere, refined and idealist. Almost all the Aquarius are intelligents and logicals. A lot of they are imaginative and psychics.  Sometimes they feel the need of fly away from the world to meditate or think. They deny to follow the crowd"

It's 100% true in my case. Well, I'm not logical... but I'm very imaginative and psychic. And overcoat, a lot of times I fly away from this world to think and meditate about things. My parents and friends have said it to me a lot of times, that I'm not almost in the real world. 

And of course, I deny to follow the crowd. I hate it, overcoat if they are doing stupid things for me, as listen to electronic music, smoking a lot or wear expensive clothes. 

"In spite of the open personality of the Aquarius and of their wish of help to the humanity, they don't usually make friends easily. They don't give their soul easily. But if they decide to be worth it love someone, they will be their friend or lover, and they can sacrifice all for his couple and they can be faithful for all their life. "

That's true. Since always I have had problems to make friends. I know a lot of people, but I don't have a lot of real friends. But when someone becomes my friend, I love him very much, and I'm ready to help him.

"For the negative side, an Aquarius is unpredictable and they always argues. They aren't very emotional, and they don't understand the emotional complexity of other people and betrayal between friends either. They don't like all that is daily and the imitations either."

I have got a lot of defects, and one of them is that I'm always argues with the people. 

In sumarize, the Aquarius are as air (their element). Our mind is always away from here....

The Shire

The Shire is a fictitious place created by Tolkien in The Lord of the Rings. It's situated at the West of the Middle Earth, and it was, since the 17th century of the Third Aged of the Sun, the home of the hobbits.

The Shire is described as a small but beautiful and fruitful land, beloved by its inhabitants. The Hobbits had an extensive agricultural system in the Shire but were not industrialised. Various supplies were produced in the Shire, including cereals, fruit, wood and pipe-weed.

The hobbits live in "holes" into the green hills. I think that their houses are warm and very beautiful.

Except in few natural disasters and with the only raid of orks in 2747, the green lands of The Shire were a pacific region, and their habitants didn't know almost anything of the world outside.

However, the peace of The Shire was altered unexpectedly. The hobbit Bilbo Baggins found the ring of the Dark Lord, Sauron. Bilbo, after all, gave the ring at his nephew Frodo Baggins. 

Another of my dreams (yes, I have a lot.) is live in The Shire. Since I saw the Lord of The Rings when I was 7, I want to live there. So New Zealand is the best place for me. I know that when I'll go to Matamata (Hobbiton), there won't be hobbits, but the houses still being there!

It seems it's the most peaceful place in the world. All the hobbits seem happy, they're always singing, dancing, smiling, laughing, smoking, drinking, loving... Certainly, for me it's the greatest place where anyone can go. It's a longing that I've never known... and unfortunately, I won't never know. That's the price I have to pay for dream.

 

One thing that I love, is listen the soundtrack of The Lord of the Rings. It can carry me to the Middle-Earth... 

 

It's... it's... I can't explain with words how make me feel this song. I'm feeling like a hobbit, who lives in The Shire, happy and smiling. I'm feeling good, without problems, as if I live in another (and more better) world. I'm flying away... 

In my village festival in summer, at the end of the concert they put this song and I almost cry. (yes, I'm very sensitive...) I was feeling like a real hobbit who lives really in The Shire. Moreover, it seemed the real Shire, because the festival was celebrated in the forest of the village, and all the people were dancing, smiling, drinking, smoking and all they were happy as hobbits.  

So all that I have to do now is wait. Wait to grow up and go to New Zealand...

Harry Potter ♥

Harry Potter. Everyone knows him, right? Rowling managed to change the world with her books. And really, she changed a lot my own world.

Harry Potter and his adventures are with me since I was 7 years. I saw the first movie, and I loved it very much, so I started to read the first 4 books that my parents bought to my brother. With 7 years old, I read the 4 books. After, I had to wait until that the fifth was published, and then the sixth and finally the seventh.And obviously, I prefer the books than the movies. (although the movies are incredibles, but the story of the book is more spectacular). So I can say that Harry has been always with me... :) And I have been always beside him, trying to help him in his adventures. Well, I haven't been only with Harry, but with all of them. Ron, Hermione, Dumbledore, Sirius, Hagrid, Snape...

I can consider me a "freak" of Harry Potter. I have read the 7 books about 5 times or more each, and the last year, in the movie of Harry Potter and the half-blood prince, I went to the cinema dressed up of Harry. I also bought the 5th, 6th and 7th book the first day that them were released. And well.. I know some of their spells! Sometimes in home, I take the magic wand (I bought it when I dressed up of Harry Potter some years ago), and I say some spells! My dream has always been go to Hogwarts... When I was younger, I wrote letters to my parents saying that I was in Hogwarts with Harry! I wished it so much...
Now, I'm living a little more in the reality (well...no. I'm always dreaming...) than before, and I don't write letters to my parents (but I still want to go to Hogwarts... now, I would be doing homework of Potions and not this blog.)

Right now, I'm reading the 7th book again (I think it's my favorite... but I don't know, because every time I read each, I think that all are incredible and perfect...). The first part of the 7th movie's going to open November 19! I prefer that they have recorded the movie in two parts, because this film must be incredible like the book!! (because I think that the other movies weren't very faithful with the book... except the first and the second. By the way, the soundtrack of the movies are AWESOME!)

Harry Potter and the deathly hallows is a great end for a great story, but I think that it's so sad... I cried a lot because in this part there are many people who die... attention SPOILER. For example, I don't understand why Fred Weasley die! and Remus, Tonks... I was so sad when I read that Snape also die... Severus Snape it's a great character! He has always been like the evil, but he's the bravest wizard that I've ever known (as Harry says in the book). The final of the book is so nice, but... The childs of Harry and Ginny, Ron and Hermione go to Hogwarts too. That's nice, and there's no more Voldemort!

I could be talking about Harry Potter hours and hours... but I stop now. I only want to say that my books of Harry Potter are my hallows :) and I will be always with them...

Thank you Rowling, to share your world with me... because now are my own world too!

Story of a life

Once upon a time, there was a man called Tim Lewik. He lived in Heidelberg, with his family. He worked on what he liked most: the cinema. It was the most incredible thing that he had ever found. For him, it was so east to disappear from the world through the cinema...

It was not until 1944, that que hit the ground with his feet for the first time. His son, his only son who he loved very much, died in World War II. You could'n express with milions of movies or words the pain that he felt inside. These feelings, were growing more and more every day, until his life became a nightmare. Every day was hell for him. He wanted to do eveything to get his son back. He could try to revive it with electricity, like Frankenstein or maybe his son was close to him, in his heaven. It was then that he began making spiritual rituals to turn him into how he was. This made him obsessed with everything that was his, which already passed. He couldn't see reality. He couldn't see his wife, or people in general, not even his dog Sparky. 

His wife, Ari Owar, decided to help him as much as possible, but he never wanted help. With so much pain, Ari decided to join him in an asylum in 1947, so that the professionals could help him and try to get his pain out.

There, in the asylum, he discovered many things that he were ignoring. He discovered music, playing the piano and doing it the way he liked it. The way to express himself through painting, knowing well his own art. He found each and every character that had appeared in his films. He saw them beside him, advising him on what to do. His whole life had become a sweet nightmare, an illusion. And it was then that he started writing the script for his next film, after several years out of this world.

After a few months, waking up, he found someone he had never imagined finding in the foot of his bed with white sheets. He was there, watching him and smiling. Those green eyes of his mother, or wife for Tim, with the long hair disheveled. His son. Just as he had falled into a big hole due to the death of his son, in the same way his son got him with these words:

- "Father, you must be strong and go forward. It's taking too long. My mother miss you very much. You have been my whole life for me, literally, but I've only been a chapter of yours. Don't be afraid to express your feelings, father. You have a lifetime ahead and you can fight any obstacle. Make more movies father. Tell our story..."

He closed his eyes for a moment and when he reopened them, the face of his son had disappeared, but not this presence. From the air, he heard "I love you...", and the only answer he knew was "Me too, my son... me too..."

Things have improved a lot for Tim since that moment. He left the asylum and life smile at him again. Because there is always some reason to continue forward, to find happiness. So he said:

-This is the story of my life. I was about to disappear from the real world, but as you can see, I'm still here. I mean, everyone of you don't give up, never. Experience things, and know who you are more and more. People who die, do not go unless you forget them first. They're still here, like a short breath around you. I could say many things, but why? All I need to tell yourself is: I wish you all a long and happy life."

People applauded when the film finished. All with a smile and more sensitive those who were with some tears. 

This was not the las film of Tim Lewik. He made many more and he also bought a piano. Undoubtedly, he lived happily ever after, beside his wife.

News- Johnny and Vanessa

In the language room, I read an article about Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, his wife.

• What is it about?

The article explains that Vanessa is worried because Angelina Jolie is very closely with her husband Johnny Depp in the movie that they were recording, "The Tourist". They were very close together.

• How does it affect you?

It affect me a little, because I love Johnny! (he's my favorite actor).
I hope that he doesn't let Vanessa for Angelina, because they're a great couple for me (I'm a little jealous of Vanessa, but...). Part of this, they have two children, and if they separate, the children will suffer.

• How does it affect the people around you?

Well, it affects at the people because they're very famous (especially affects at the paparazzies and journalists). The fame seems incredible, but I think that it can hurts too. It seems that you can't be a normal person, and that you haven't got any privacy. (for this reason Johnny bought a island lost to the seas of Caribbean. )


Simply, I hope everything ends well, and that Johnny make more movies! I will see them all!

Where the hell is Matt?

A great friend of mine, Víctor, showed me this video. While I was watching it, and after see it, I was stunned. It's so amazing...

The first time I saw it, I started to laugh: "what is this man doing?!!". But after, you can't stop to see it... for me it's spectacular. When you're watching it, you feel the world is more small, that all we are together, that we all are in the same world. And I'm feel good. People of different places, of different cultures, of different languages... united for the Matt's dance. Simply... without words!

The theme, it's a great idea. Record Matt and other people dancing for the world... It needs a lot of time, but the result it's fantastic!

Moreover, the song's incredible! It helps too much at the video. The song is peaceful, but at the same time it's powerful.

Everytime I see the video, I want to travel a lot... and visit all this places for my own, and why not, dance too. This is another dream of mine... travel a lot. Visit all the world, and take photos about all the things... 

Simply: Congratulations for Matt and the people who have collaborated in the video!

I ♥ New Zealand

New Zealand is an island (well, two islands) of Oceania, that interest me very much.  The land of the maori and of the rugby... I love it since I saw The Lord Of The Rings for first time, when I was 9 years old. The landscapes in the movie fascinated me so, that I started to search about where was the movie recorded. When I found that the movie was recorded in New Zealand, I started to search new things about the country. How that island so away from the world can be so perfect? The country fascinated me more.

After a time, I wasn't obsessed so with New Zealand. But in 3th ESO, we had to do the "Credit de Sintesi" about one country of the world. My first thinking was New Zealand... so I did the work of her. If I thought that this country fascinated me, after do the work I fell in love with her.

So my dream has always been go to New Zealand... and can see all with my own eyes. And go to Hobbiton!! :D (Hobbiton is now an turistic place in Matamata)

 My dream...

And why not, in Mórdor too (Tongariro). There are the black lands, but a very blue lake too.

In this photo is more like Mórdor!

Well, I want to visit all New Zealand. Because all there is special. So when I grow up more, I want to live there.. because I know if I travel here, I can't return... 

I have been talking with the daughter of a friends of my parents, who has been living in New Zealand for 6 months. She said to me that there all is better. Part of the landscapes and the magic of the land, there are more money than here, and you can find work very easily. But in New Zealand the immigration's very controled. You can't live there forever if you aren't of there. You only can if you are married with someone of there, or if you contribute money to the country.
That for me it's a good idea, because as the country's very beautiful, many people would go there, and not all of them would work. So the country would end with crisis (like Spain now).

The exotic animals, the amazing landscapes, all the activities you can do there... wow. Incredible. Also, I loooveee photography! So what better way to use the camera? ♥ Only of think about can do photos in New Zealand my heart starts to beat faster!! For this reason Peter Jackson recorded there The Lord of the Rings... (well, because he's from the green islands too. Man lucky)

Isn't it beautiful? I haven't got any words for describe it...

All there seems so peaceful, so imposible....

In my opinion: New Zealand aren't of this world. It CAN'T be of this world!!

Maoris!

. . . W I T H O U T  W O R D S . . .
only heart beatings.

Summarizing, New Zealand for me it's a great place. I haven't been there yet, but well.. I hope someday I'll see all with my own eyes :) But right now, I can only see it with movies, documentals and photos. And even in that way, I can't stop thinking of New Zealand... I'm mad!

Well, mad no... I only want to fly, fly away from here... And New Zealand is the best place for do that, and disappear of the world. That's my dream.

 

My own paradise...
