Music and Art

Hi everyone!
Today I will talk about something that I really love, music and drawing. I will start with the art of drawing and painting. In my personal case, I enjoy drawing portraits, I give my best to do them with a lot of details and improve my drawings. I started drawing when I was 12, on vacation, I was so bored because I was so sick and the first thing I drew was a table, then I began to take confidence and draw people. I have never painted on canvas but I hope to do it one day.
And about music, I enjoy to listen indie music, or relaxed music and pop/pop alternative sometimes. Lately I’m obsessed with Bastille, an indie pop band of London. I knew them before,and the first song that I heard of them I think was “sleepsong” but lately I've listened to their music a lot and it's totally fantastic. Another type of music that I love is the music is one that includes piano in the melody, and when I first heard the music of Ludovico Einaudi was amazing. I discovered this pianist 3 years ago, because I was looking for piano music to study and concentrate haha. the first song I heard from him was “Primavera” and right now I’m keep listening his songs.

Free time

Hi classmates! Today, in this blog, I am going to talk about an activity that I like to do in my free time. Lately, I have not had much free time, to be honest. Whatever. I like to draw. In fact, I already mentioned it in a previous post, but it doesn't matter haha. I like to draw people, faces exactly. I remember that when I was 12 I drew a table with a tablecoth on it because I was bored and I couldn't move because I was sick. Lately I have not drawn because it's the end of the semester, so I'm scared right now, but if I have days off, I will draw. This activity involves a lot o patience, perseverance and tolerance to failure, especially at the beginning, because there are times when the drawings do not remain as we want, and you don't need too much money, you just need a paper sheet, an eraser and a pencil (unless you want to paint with oil, that's expensive haha). Now that I think about it, I don't now exactly why I enjoy doing this activity, maybe be...

Ambition

Hi again, guys! Today, in this post I will talk about an ambition that I would like to achieve in a near future, but I think that is not an ambition, it's like a dream. Whatever. Maybe an ambition that I have is go to another country, specifically India.  This "ambition" started in the summer of 2014, when I was 14. I was running with a friend in a park, and when we stop, we started a really good conversation about countries and beliefs, and we decided to go in the future (maybe after finishing studying our careers, or when we're older) to go to India. I don't know why, but I think that going to this country will be a mystical and magical experience, because were both love that country full of culture and we are sure that this country can teach us many things. So, if one day I think seriously about going to India, and if I have money too, I will go with my friend, because it's like a promise or something similar. Actually I am not doing anything to achiev...

Language

Pagel start by saying that language can implant ideas in your mind. He start with the story of Babel tower in Bible and says that this story is a warning about the power of language. He references this story because God felt that his power can finish with this tower that people want to make. For this reason, God destroyed the tower and scattered the people, bu giving them different languages, to ensure that the tower would never be rebuilt. I think that this opinion about the origin of language it's kind of religious, and maybe he need to investigate with other focus of attention, but it's a good analogy to start. To understand the evolution, he start to talking about chimpanzees. He says that chimpanzees can't imitate, they can't learn from others mistakes. From my point of view, this explains why chimpanzees have live in this way always, doing the same thing for years. In the other hand, he start to talk about Neanderthals. He says that we are not sure that they ...
