La Arenga del Abuelo

For sports journalists and the people that enjoy the sports and soccer, a very good site to visit is 'La Arenga del Abuelo'. Although it is best known for publishing on social networks, as instagram and facebook, 'La Arenga del Abuelo' have a website where publish the news about sports and historical facts.
In this site and its social networks, you can find updated news, curious events in sports, historical facts, and other funny events like fans reactions, bloopers of amateur soccer players, and other awesome events like aweosme goals of amateur soccer players, but always focused on the emotionality and the fan's taste.
Personally, I think that there is no other sports medium that covers news like 'La Arenga del Abuelo',  because it has very varied sections for every tastes, from knowing historical events, to laughing with funny events.
A interesting section is "Grandfather Memories", where memorables events are remembered, like the time Nicolás Massu beat Andy Rodick, one of the best tennis players back then.
I usually visit this site after a interesting sport event, or when I am bored, because the content of the social network of 'La Arenga del Abuelo' are very funny.

The drawing that identifies me

I enjoy the visual arts when the paints are beautiful, for example, landscapes, or the people portrayed demonstrate some feelings.  I don't interested in art when I was child, but I admire the people who draw very good, especially especially the people who draw anime characters.  I liked when a primary school's partner drew in classes, because she do beautiful draws of anime characters.
I would have liked to draw like her, but I don't have this talent and for more than trying, I couldn't draw like her.
My favourite visual arts expressions are the draws inspirated in videogames and anime that I usually find on the internet.
I don't have a favourite artist or a favourite painting or draw, but I like draws like this because it represents loneliness or melancholy, and she is watching the rain as I would also do it on a rainy day when I feel melancholic. In part, I feel identified with this drawing, maybe that's why I like it so much.

A great day in the beach


My best friend of my adolescence took this photo in El Quisco, in the summer 2017. This day, me and my highschool friends meet like all summer vacations, but in this day, we decided to do some different thing and we traveled to Isla Negra, to visit the Pablo Neruda House's and go to the beach in the afternoon. How I thought it would be a good overview, I invite
d my girlfriend too.
We had a lot of fun that day and the Pablo Neruda House's impressed me a lot. Is a very beautiful place with a beautiful ocean view and a great history. Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures because I just dedicated myself to enjoy the place.
In the afternoon, we went to the beach in El Quisco.  We collected stones, we wet out feet in the sea and we talked for a long time. When we left the beach, my friend took this photo while I cleaned my feet from the sand. It's a simple photo, but I like it because I love spontaneous photos and me and my girlfriend look very happy. I think that photo represents that great day and how much fun it was.

The movies of my life

I don't watch movies frequently, but in the last few weeks I watched much movies of Marvel universe. When I want to watch a movie, I don't  rent DVDs or go to the cinema, except if the movie interests me a lot. I usually prefer to download the movies in internet. The kind of films I like the most are action and psychologic, particularly those that have an unexpected turn in history. 
The last film I saw is "Avengers: Endgame" in the cinema and I really liked it, but to saw it, I needed to see 10 movies that I didn't seen. Of those movies I liked "Capitain America: The Winter Soldier" for the unexpected turn in history and "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1" for his charismatic characters. But the film I liked the most is "Avengers: Infinity War". I think that movie is better than "Endgame".

I Think my all-time favourite film is "Fight club" because it has evening I like about a movie: fights, action, psychological development of the protagonist and an unexpected turn in history. It's set in United Stades in the 1990's and the main characters are the unnamed Narrator, Tyler and Marla Singer and they're played by Edward Norton, Brad Pitt y Helena Bonham Carter. Well, the main character suffers from insomnia and travels a lot because of his work. One day he finds his apartment burned down by an explosion and decides to call Tyler, someone he met on one of his trips. Both characters talk about capitalism and consumerism, and while they talk, Tyler challenges the Narrator to hit him. Both began to meet frequently to fight, which catches the attention of the passers-by and they founding the "Fight club". The club, soon it was transformed in a anticapitalist organizations of anarchist characteristics led by Tyler. The history has a unexpected turn when the Narrator realizes that Tyler's terrorist actions have a lot to do with something he does while he sleeps.
The movie ends with an incredible escene with special effects.
I totally recommend it and I think of see it again.

My dream job

As a child I wanted to be a soccer player. In those years, my father always invite me to the stadium to see Rangers of Talca. Also I watched the "Supercampeones" and the Premier League. I was fan of Arsenal where Thierry Henry played and my father was fan of Manchester United. I really liked soccer and my father enrolled me in a soccer school, and I also played in my neighborhood and at school. I was always playing soccer.
Years later, when I was in the high school, my interest in playing soccer was declining due to the pressure of my parents to study a university career. I did not know what to study and my tastes changed radically. If as a child I liked mathematics and astronomy, at 17 years old I was no longer interested in mathematics or science because of academic frustrations. So, I started remembering the things I was good at as a child. And what triggered my decision to study was I remembered a homework in elementary school I had to write a news and I really liked it and I did it very well.
In the university, I realized that I am very good at writing news, but I'm not good at interviewing or going out looking for the news because of my shyness. The practice helped me to work on that problem, but I still need more work to overcome it.
If I could choose a different career now, I would like to go back in time and not stop practicing soccer, train to be better and better, and who knows? maybe play for Rangers of Talca or Arsenal of England.

My favourite piece of technology

My favourite piece of technology is my computer. I got it in christmas when I was 12 years old. I use my computer for playing online games, watching series and anime, seeing my social networks, doing my university assignments, listening to music, watching soccer matches, etcetera. I use it everyday!
I like it too much because when I was a child, I never had a game console and always had to go to my friend's houses for playing games. When I got my computer, I found many fun games, but a online game of epic fantasy medieval called my attention because in my childhood I dreamed with a game like this after to see a The Simpsons chapter.
My life without it would be very difficult and sad to me, because my computer is my principal source of entertainment and leisure, also it would be very difficult to do the university assignments because I need to write too much.
Even, for many years, my computer had its broken screen and my parents didn't take it to technical service. In this times, I had to use my brother's computer to do the high school and university homeworks and play games. The last year, my parents take my computer to technical service after 5 years of broken, because I started having problems with my brother when I needed to do the homeworks. When I got my computer repaired, we both had our independence!
