CAN WE LIVE WITHOUT HUMOUR?

Humour is everywhere, you only have to let it enter to your life. It's an important thing because it makes you laugh, your problems seems to disappear. Of course we can live without humour... but who wants to live without it? It would be a boring and sad life. We all want to be happy, don't we? 

From my point of view, when we walk hand in hand with humour, all seems to be better. Let's imagine you have got a really bad day: you have two options. To get depressed and feel unhappy because of your worries or to see the situation with humour, so don't give up. Give it a try! It makes you a positive person and that says a lot about you. Laugh everytime you can do it, it's a magical thing.

The days when you don't feel fine... what do you prefer, to listen sad songs or to watch an humour program? A joke can put a smile on your face, thus listen to it!

In conclusion, without humour our lives would be boring and horrible... therefore it means you can't live without it: give it a try! Because a sad life, is not life. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN :)

Last 9th October was John Lennon's birthday (71 years old... I can't believe it!) It was a special day for me, and for all the world. 

John was a great musician and a beautiful person. He has changed a lot of lives, including mine. His music, his thoughts... he was absolutely a model for so many people. And last sunday it was demonstrated. 

Yoko Ono, his wife, prepared a magical thing. The Imagine Peace Tower. It consists with a enormous light that will lit heaven until 8 december. Then, Dec 21-28, Dec 31, 2011 and then March 21-28, 2012. (it is in Iceland). 

All this in memory of John Lennon. But that's not all. Yoko sent a message to the world: she wanted people to send her their wishes. These wishes would go with the light, so far away in heaven. It's a beautiful thought.. and of course, I sent my wish by Facebook and by E-mail. My only wish in that moment, (an impossible wish...) was that John Lennon were here, with us. I also wished peace and love for all the habitants in the Earth. 

You can see Imagine Peace Tower here:

I have listened the speech that Yoko made. I have cried a lot. Really, last sunday I cried a lot too. It was so moving... it seemed to me like the light tower joined all the people that loves John with him. 

It's wonderful to think it. Think that John has seen it... I hope so :)

I was watching to the tower one hour more or less. When I saw that it started to lit  I felt so excited. There's the photo of that moment:  

Wonderful.. isn't it? And if you can see it, in heaven are only two stars that light a lot. There is my thought : ‎"The two stars on either side of the tower are John and George..." ♥ 

After, the clouds disappeared and appeared another incredible thing... NORTHERN LIGHTS! (Aurora borealis)

It's nice to think that John did appear it to thank us... Well, I know I'm a dreamer... BUT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE :-) When I saw the light one John Lennon's song appears in my head:

Well we all shine on!

Like the moon and the stars and the sun

Well we all shine on!

Everyone come on!

That night we all shone on... with you, John :)

John has changed me a lot (well, Beatles in general). They helped me to find a part of my way... I was so lost and they gave me music and love. Maybe people read it and thinks: "what a stupid girl! she's so exagerated". All my life people has said it to me.... but I'm a sensitive person (very sensitive...) who needs a model to follow. I mean, something to believe it.


Some people believe in God. They want to believe in one God to feel secure. I believe in nature, in love, in a few persons. One of these persons are the four Beatles. Really, I love that day when I wanted to increase my music culture... I was so lost and I found them. Or they found me. (and they don't want to leave me...). Because of all this John's birthday was an important day for me. I love him! :)

Little Johnny :)

John & Yoko

"But as for me I still remember how it was before, and I'm holding back the tears no more..." John, we are a world that misses you. Please, come back.. we need people like you. We need you.



HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN, YOUR MUSIC AND PEACE WILL LIVE FOREVER!

GIVE PEACE A CHANCE! ☮

My little Rally :3

Rally is our little cat. We found him this summer, the day when my brother started his Rally to Mongolia. For this reason the name. We thought about the name Micra too, because it was the car brand which they used: Nissan Micra. The most incredible is that, that night, meanwhile we were saying goodbye to my brother and his friend, a dog was carrying Rally in his mouth. He left him on the middle of the road. We were so surprised: at first, we thought he was a mouse because it was small... but no, he was Rally! :)

Beautiful... :)

Now he has grown a lot...  and he's always bitting and playing! He's white and brown, with a honey colour eyes. And he's so fluffy! We have two cats: Idriss and Rally. Idriss loves sleep, she's so quiet... and Rally never sleeps, he only wants to play play and play! (for him, play = bite). He wants to play with Idriss but she doesn't want it: so they are always arguing.

Is like to have a little brother... We are always playing together. Moreover, he's extremely sweet. He always want to be with someone. I think that he misses his mother a lot, because sometimes he wants to suckle! I feel like a mother when he starts to suckle in my t-shirt!

I'm so happy to be with him. I know that if we haven't found him, he would died. I'm so proud of my desition to take him to home :) my parents weren't so sure...

Idriss and Rally!

when he was younger he had a big blue eyes... you can see it in this photo. Now his eyes has changed!

Now his eyes are a mix of honey colour, green and blue. You can see it better when the light shines on him. 

A LITTLE BAD JOKE :)

- Why are you crying?
+ The elephant is dead...
- Was he your pet?
+ No, but I'm the one who must dig his grave. 

MONGOL RALLY

Mongol Rally is a trip without a preestablished route with the only objective to arrive in Ulaanbataar (Mongolia's capital). There, the drivers have to give 1200 euros, which are destinated at the orphanages of the country. They have to give their car too, and in Mongolia, they sell it to earn money for the next Mongol Rally. I'm talking about this because this summer my brother Dani and one of his friends, Pau, have done it. This year it has been the 8th edition, with approximately 450 teams from around the world. They left Sant Pere on 22th July and they arrived in Mongolia more or less on 25th August. All the participants met in Czech Republic: all them started the Rally there. 

Here's their route (all the participants had their own route):

Incredible, isn't it? 1/3 of the world!

They had to search some sponsors so they would can pay the most part of the trip: a lot of people helped them! The name of the team of my brother and his friend was MICRA NOIS. They had a Nissan Micra (for this reason the name) called Titus, who arrived to Mongolia without several problems. Another team traveled with them the most part of the adventure. They were EKITCAT, with the company of a Seat Inca called Keka. 

My brother Dani and Pau with their Nissan Micra :)

Ekitcat team: Marcos, Laia and Pitu with their Seat Inca. 

There's a lot of anecdote and stories about their trip, so I can't explain them all! If you want to know more about their trip you have some options. They appeared in the newspaper, in the radio and even in the TV (Canal Nord). You can listen to my brother and his friend there: http://www.mixcloud.com/HoraL/dani-salles-i-pau-torracabota-viatgen-amb-un-micra-fins-a-mongolia-per-participar-a-un-rally-solidar/

As I have said, they have a lot of anecdote to explain! They have lived a great trip, full of adventures and solidarity. I'm so glad for all the participants because they have done all this route to collabore with the orphanages of Mongolia. For example, my brother and Pau have done 15.000 km!! Incredible :)

Yeehaw! My brother Dani :) they found an yak's head and they thought that it would seem so pretty as a decoration in their car... and it's amazing, isn't it?

At last, in the Finish Line!

Camels! My brother explained us that they chased the camels with the car! It's so funny, he said that the camels were exhausted later... you can see it in the photo! Poor animals... chased by a Micra and two mad drivers! 

Without shoes but... with a Barça's shirt. Another anecdote is that they bought some Barça's shirts because in all these countries people loves football (overcoat Barça team). When they said to the people that they are from Catalonia, Spain, people only said: MESSI MESSI! with a big smile. Incredible... 

Well, if you want to see more photos and more anecdotes you can go to their blog. 

Click there: MICRANOIS TEAM

And I also give you another link: EKITCAT TEAM

In my opinion, they're amazing :) It's a big trip where you can find a lot of inconvenients and problems... with the car, if you get sick... but luckily, they didn't have a lot of problems! All was good, and now they have a big experience to tell to all the people. And I know I can write a lot of things of their adventure in the blog, but it will never end! Even now my brother has things to explain... (and all the things that they don't want to explain to anyone... haha). So I only show to you a little bit of their big and beautiful adventure :)

MY DREAMS

Hi Sonia, I'm Natalia :)

I'm going to talk about my dreams; I have a lot! 

I have always been a dreamer... When I was younger my most important dream was to be a Pokemon trainer, live in Neverland and never grow up, or to receive Hogwarts letter that lets you study there.. And how about to go with Frodo Baggins in his adventure, or to be with Edward Scissorhands in his mansion? And I have to say that these dreams still living inside me. So as you can see I have a lot of impossible dreams. It would be better that I talk with you of more "real" dreams, isn't it?

Now my biggest dream is to be able to study what I want. And of course, can work in a future of that. I'm very fond of cinema, and I hope I can enter to the College in Barcelona to study Audiovisual Communications. My other dream is to travel a lot. I want to know better the world! Greece, USA, England (specially Liverpool!),... and of course, New Zealand, my paradise. I want to live in New Zealand for a period. It would be incredible...

Apart from that, my other dream is to meet with Tim Burton and Johnny Depp (why not?) It's more probable than the others!

Seriously, now my biggest dream as I have said is to enter in the College. Afterwards all the other will come (maybe). I hope in my future I can travel a lot (and I'll meet with Tim and Johnny *joke*). Finally, one of my other dreams is to help the Earth. The animals, the ecosystem... all what I can. It's so sad what the humans are doing with our Mother, the Earth... Can you imagine me working in the Greenpeace? I like it! 

In summary, I don't know why, maybe because I'm aquarius and I'm air, so my mind is always far from here... but I know that I have been always dreaming impossible things and that I'll do it forever! My other broken dream is to be in a Beatles concert... I know that's impossible (maybe when I die) but I'll dream it forever! Can I be more stupid? (yes, I can :D) 

And that's all. During my seventeen years of life I have had a lot of dreams, but if I talk about all them it will be long! And I suppose that in this moment I have forgot some of them... but well, I have told you about the most important ones for me. 

I hope you don't think that I'm mad! I'm just a dreamer...

See you soon,

Natàlia

I'M BACK

Bye bye Summer... I'll miss you a lot! And hello Batxillerat... 

Well, I'm here again. I hope that year would be great... I have to get good marks! I want to study Audiovisual Communication in Barcelona, and for this career they ask you high marks. 

This summer I have been working at the Estate Agency of my parents. It has been interesting because I have talked a lot of French and English. Even I have talk a few of Russian! And meanwhile I have been doing my Work Research about Tim Burton. I talk about him, his style and techique, his movies... I have to analyze some of his movies: Vincent (his first short), Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands (my favorite :D), Batman Returns, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Big Fish, Sweeney Todd and Alice in Wonderland. I have also to create a short using the stop-motion. It's the most difficult part of my Work Research... 

I hope I'll get good marks of English too :D I'll do my best for all the subjects.

And that's my first post. Yes, I know it's short but it's only an introduction. See you soon!

PS: TGIF! :)
