My Blog Experience

My experience writing the class blog was great, I did enjoy doing it, it’s much better than a regular class because the students had more participation, we practiced our English by doing the blog, the subjects were interesting so I wanted to write about them, I liked all the subjects and specially I liked to do my post called “The Best Bass Player From YouTube”, cause I like to write about music and specially the bass guitar. Bad things, I’d wish to know more about English, like grammatical rules, to make betters blogs (with better redaction).

I think my English didn´t got better by doing the blog, but it didn’t went worse, most of it because doing the blog made me constantly practiced it so I didn´t lose it, the past semester I didn’t had an English class, so I didn´t practiced and it was difficult to write it. Otherwise doing the blog was too easy for me, I´d like to have more difficult work to do, it could worth to learn some more. But I like that the class is like relax, is not stressing like other class I have, and I like to learn and speak English so it is one of my favourites class.

27F was traumatic :$

The 27 of February of 2010 at 3:34 I was on my bed trying to counselling the sleep after seeing the TV, when things became moving at first I thought: “its ok, just another tremor”, but then the movement started to get bigger, and I jumped out of the bed and ran right to the door to stay under the doorframe with my mother my father and my cousin Alan that by the time was living with us. When the quake ended up, my mother called my brother to know how he was (he was working on a disco when 27F happened, at least we thought that).  Thing is he was OK, he were driving when quake attacked, and when the movement started he just pulled over and saw the street moving. After the 27F I was shocking, and with the aftershocks I became paranoiac and I started imagining the aftershocks, so when a real aftershocks were coming I didn’t know if it was a real or an imaginary movement, it truly sucked. But that’s just the beginning, after the quake it started a local paranoia that people was robbing houses, so neighbours made barricades and I stayed awake all night long to make guard.

A country?

Well, the question: where country you'd like to visit? has killed me. There are a lot of countries that I’d love to visit for different reasons each one, that I can´t just puck one, so I will mention all the countries and the reason because I´d like to visit it, here we go:

Brazil: I´d like to visit Brazil because it diverse gastronomy, ethylic culture, the samba, how everything is party, the people is strangely happy.    

Russia: I like their vodka, and it has the most beautiful woman in the world.

England: I love their musical culture, I dream with the idea of going to one of all the music festival that take place in England, like Glastonbury festival, and of course I love whiskey.

Spain: It is an artistic country and I like it. Also it have a good clime, good beaches, it has a great history, and a very good wine and beer.

Greece: Very interesting country by his ancient culture and it good gastronomy.

Cuba: It has good beaches, very good ron, and a very good clime (on summer), I like the idea of going to a discotheque and dance salsa or cumbia.

Argentina: I´d like the underground musical scene from Argentina, I’d like to listen it personally.

Germany: I´d like to go to the original Octoberfest, the mother of all the Octoberfests.

China: I´d like to know it millennial culture, millennial gastronomy, millennial art (you got the idea), also China has very beautiful natural places, and of course that I like to walk across the Chinese wall.

E.E.U.U.: It looks like a funny place, with funny festivals and good music.

Ok, there are a lot of more countries but it will take a lot of time and honestly I’m tired.

Me+London

Hi fellas! What would i do if i were to London? possibly no big thing, i´d like to walk by the streets , go to the Emirates stadium to see an Arsenal match hopefully with the Manchester United or the Liverpool, visit the London eye, the Big Beng, go to a bar and drink some whiskeys, get lost on the Underground that is something that i probably wouldn´t like but sure it will happen, take a trip on a big red bus and sitting on the second floor, make a prank call on his red telephones, go boating in the Thames, visit old buildings with a lot of history, maybe watch a rock show (or a lot of them) in a famous pub, take an english breakfast by dinner, visit the royal palace and make fun of the guards, visit a candy store because the candy and the chocolate taste different there (or people says that), go picnic in a park like Mr. Bean, play a football match with english people and win (probably). I´d like to do the most of these things with my friends Gabierto, Joakokos, Pipene, Piperuano, Raul, Matigato, Mati, Guidios, i mean my friends and my brother.

Android Paranoid

Hi everyone!
I must say that at the moment I fell in love with two songs. The first one, and my favorite at the time, it’s called Android Paranoid and it’s by Radiohead, I don’t remember when I listened it for first time, but it was like many years ago, but lately I took a great taste for this song. The genre is alternative rock, and I like it because the melody is great, the rhythm’s changes are sublime, it starts soft, and then it goes like strong to back to soft and finish strong.

The other song I like at the moment is called She Look To Me, and it’s played by Red Hot Chili Peppers. I listened like a month ago and then I decided that I had to play it with my bass. I don’t know why I like it, but I think that is because it’s a very melodic song. It is an alternative rock song that belongs to the Stadium Arcadium album. I has never listened this complete album because it’s have 28 songs, so takes an entire afternoon to listen it entire, because of that I still discovering its songs until today.


This is Android Paranoid by Radiohead

 

 

 

If you like reggae, this is a version you will like!

 

 

And last but not least, She look to me by RHCP

The Best Bass Player From YouTube

Hi everyone!

Today I’d like to tell you about one person I admire so much, his name is David, he lives in Switzerland and he is a big bass player (the best) from youtube, he makes videos of himself playing a great diversity of funky songs and rock songs. He started by playing covers of Red Hot Chili Peppers, then he went playing covers from others bands, and now he has his own funky band. He is fast and he has a great technique, his playing way is clean (he don’t make big or many mistakes). Also, he feels the music. I have seen many bass players that don’t enjoy the music they play, they only play the bass like for competition or for presume their skills, but no because they like it, but no David, he plays because he like it, not to presume.

Time ago I needed to learn some bass lines from different songs, so I watched David’s videos and I did practiced every day by looking at those videos. That way I became a better bassist. So I admire this guy because when he started he wasn’t different from others beginners, but now he plays and he is like no other (on YouTube), I definitely want to be like him. 

Take a look of his work! 

Myths and Legends

 

 

 

 

Hi everyone!

 

Today I’m going to talk to you about a card game called Myths and Legends. I don’t remember when I learned to play it, but I was like ten or eleven years old, or maybe twelve, I don’t know. I played Myths and Legends the most of the times with friends and cousins, and that is why I liked that much, because it was an excuse to meet these guys, and meet new people, and it help to enjoy the basic school. The game is great, you have to use your brain if you want to defeat your adversary, also if you do not have good cards your chances of win are lows, but the most important is have good luck, because without luck you will never take the card you need. The last time I played this game, it was against my younger cousin Diego, and he smashed me, only because I was out of practice. Here i left you some cards that i liked.
