When I was 15 years old I wanted to be an astronomer, I think that dream last till today.
I loved to stay in my bedroom, with the lights off and watch the stars and the moon from my window, specially those nights were the moon was full. It was stunning. I started to dream about myself in an observatory with another astronomers watching the stars, the planets, galaxies, black holes and stuff like that. I felt very curious about all the things that happen in the universe, because there are a lot of things.I also dreamed with find a new planet and earn a lot of money with that, but the money wasn't really important to me in that time, I just wanted to be in front of a big telescope and listen Pink Floyd, as I am doing now to write this post. I also liked to stick those phosphorescent star in my bedroom's ceiling.When I was 16, I got a real telescope, I was 3000 times more than happy, I can't explain it now, but that day, I was really really happy. I couldn't wait until night arrives and when that happend I was ready with my telescope in my bedroom's window. I already had a book about astronomy, so I new that the brightest star in the sky was Sirius, I saw it perfectly. Then I saw Saturn with its rings, which were so very clear that I could distinguish its colours. Finally, I couldn't see the moon because it was new, but it didn't matter, I could see it another day and hen I finally saw it with the telescope, it was the most beautiful thing that I have never seen I my life, I think I cried xD.
Well, with the years, that dream was dying down, the subject related with astronomy were too difficult for me, and to be honest, I didn't like them either, the science wasn't my thing.
Now, I still love watching the sky, but I will never earn money with that.

The Simpsons
I'm sure you all know what it this tv serie about, or at least you've herad of it, well this is my favourite show by far.
The Simpsons tells the story of a middle class family and its adventures. This group of characters is compound by Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie, where Homer is the main charachter, althou the others are very important for the development of the story.
The character I like the most is Bart... no, its Homer...or Marge? or Maggie? I'm not really sure of that, but what I can say is that I like the less is Lisa, she is so correct, tidy and boring. I feell dull when I see her.
I like this tv show because they make fun of their own culture, their own country, their own lifestyles, they make everyone looks ridiculous. I love that. I like also the sarcasm they use. It makes me laugh. I think its hilarious.
There are also another series that are very funny and make another people look stupid, maybe The Simpsons is not so different from others tv shows, but this is definitely the chosen one for me.
See ya!

Mi mejor enemigo
The first time I saw this movie, It didn't mean anything to me, I don't even remember when was the first time I saw it, but I watched it again a couple of months ago, and I noticed the background of it, its real meaning. But first, I'm gonna tell you what it is about.
This is a chilean-argentinean movie, it take place in the chilean.argentinean patagony in 1978 . It tells the story of those soldiers who jeopardize their lives for no rason at all and at the end of the war, nobody takes care of them and nobody remember what they did to protect the country. In this movie we can see a Chilean troop and an Argentinean troop. Both are lost in the patagony. With the time they strarted to think that they were fighting an unnecessary war and they became friends.
I liked this movie because it made me realize that in the world are too many fights and wars that are totally unnecessary. Innocent people die every day because of this and because of the ambition and the selfishness of some.

Culture Clash
When I read that we have to write about culture clash, nothing came to my mind, I didn't know what to say (what to write in this case), so I began to search about it and I saw a couple of things. For example, I found out that it is also known as "culture shock", but this has a different connotation, maybe a sad meaning, at least that's what I feel about it. Anyway, I found a definition for culture clash that is more appropiate: "When one or more cultures are integrated into one environment, causing disruption and challenging contemporary traditions. Often occurs in multicultural societies." (I'll add the source at the end of the post). When I read this I immediately I started to think in which places this happens, and then the same again, nothing came to my mind. But then I thought: " which is the city what recieves the biggest amount of immigrants every year? New York city. I don't know if I am right, but it is true that a lot of foreign people arrives to NY. It has its Afro-American hood, its Hispanic hood, its Italian hood, its Chinese hood, its Guayanes hood and its jewish hood. I can Imagine all the culture that is mixed there, even if they have their own neighbourhoods.
I don't think I have experinced a culture clash situation lately, so I think that's all for now :)
