Music in my life

Hello everyone! I hope you had a great long holiday weekend.

In this post I'm going to share with you about a topic that I have already mentioned in my last post: music in my life.

I have always liked music. I growth listening to Los Jaivas, NapalĂ©, Bee Gees, Queen, Peter Gabriel and others. I liked to hear how different voices and instruments sound so good together and try to identify which instruments were being played along each song. 
When I was at 2th grade, I had some piano lessons, but I give up on them because I wasn't willing to change my playing time for practice time. Now I regret for that decision.
Later, I started learning to play the guitar at school and I liked it a lot but I didn't expected that I would receive a guitar in my birthday that summer. It was a beautiful gift and this time I was going to seize it.

But, I had to make a decision. I was going to play the guitar only as a hobby? 

In the mean while I dicovered that one of the uses of music is worship and God likes people's worship. In fact, according to Psalms 22:3, the psalmists speaks to God saying: "Yet you are holy,    enthroned on the praises of Israel."He is saying that God is were He is praised. So I decided to play only worship songs with my guitar.

  
In consecuence, my likes about music also changed. The kinds of music I like now are: gospel, contemporary christian, contemporary worship and christian rock. Although I still like some classical music, pop, rock, disco music, salsa, cumbia and other kinds.

My favourite singer is Marcos Brunet and my favourite band is Hillsong United.

I have a cousin that also plays the guitar and makes some musical experiments and one of my sisters plays viola.

Music is very present on films. They wouldn't be the same withouth it. I saw one flm recently that I liked a lot: Sing! 
It's a very good movie and has a lot of good songs. After watching that movie I was at least three days singing "Shake it off".

Although I don't have problems with singing that, I do when I can't stop singing songs of Silvio Rodriguez or Francisca Valenzuela. Silvio Rodriguez didn't bother me till I stood some days in my grandparents house and my grandmother put the same CD the whole day. In Francisca Valenzuela's case I used to like her, but now I can't stand her (I'm sorry for her fans but that is the truth). 

What about you? There is any artist that you can't stand?

Good bye!

Our targets

So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.  Galatians 6:9 New Living Translation (NLT) source Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well. Every time we start doing something it is important where we want to get with that. Tha gives us motivation and purpose. That helps us keep on efforting for our target when we are already tired or gives us a new impulse  when we remember it. Starting a carrer isn't exempt of that rule. In my case, I'm studying a major in Biochemistry because it is a carrer that could reach me out to understand better how living organisms work chemically. My drives are that I could work reaserching about living organisms that could revert enviormental problems, making science workshops at school and maybe classes. In the first situation I imagine it with a lot of work in contaminated and clean places, a lot of time in the laboratory and also looking for ...

Summer holidays

[source] Hello every one! I hope you are doing well. Here we go again, we have just talked about the best vacations we have ever had. Now let's talk about what are we planning about the summer holidays that are coming soon, or at least that are getting closer. Along all my life I have always been waiting for vacations to go out to know some new place or to places that we already know to share with my family. For the first time in my life, this summer isn't the case. I'm not that motivated to know a new place, instead I would like to look for a part time job or something like that to earn some money. I would use that money to participate of some activities during the following year so my parents don't have to pay for the expenses of those things.  Although, I would like to go out some place with my family anyway because it is good to share some relaxation time together. Maybe we could go to El Quisco to visit my cousins and spend some time with my grandmother,...
