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, Napalé, 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!

Postgraduate studies?

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well. Today I am going to travel far in the future, as I did in my previous post. We are going to talk about a course that you would like to take when you finish your major degree. When I heard this I said "What?! Are you crazy? How am I going to talk about what I am going to do after I graduate if I'm not even close to gradute yet?" Anyway, I will try to look beyond that I have in front of my eyes and tell you what I would like to do. I'm just joking. I do use to look at the future but I question myself about if it is going to be as I imagine it. I'll tell you about that later. [SOURCE] Answering the question about what I would like to do when I finish my major degree I would say taking a Master in Biochemistry. I would consider taking this course in the future because it's objective is giving a high level background in Biochemical sciences and its aplications to professionals and university graduates. I ...

Second term, here we go!

Hello everyone! welcome back. It's been a long time since the last post. I hope you had a nice term ending, and if you didn't, don't be sad because even if you didn't get what you wanted to, you did an effort for it, you persisted. That makes you grow up and learn... So tell me.  How are you doing? How did you do on vacations? Did you have a good time? Did you rest enough? I hope you did! Did you travel some where? or there is any place or country that you would like to go to in the future? I think that is a question that we all have ask to ourselfs in some moment of our life, when we start dreaming about those longed for vacations that will come... later or sooner, they will come. [source] [source] Let me tell you about the place that I would like to visit: Chile. Why did I choose the same country where I live? Because I know that Chile is a beautiful country and has so much different landscapes due to its great latitudinal length, but I have never v...

Alcohol

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well :). I know I said that  the last post it was going to be the last one, but I have this pending topic, so here goes the last post for real. Have you ever tried any drug of abuse? Why was it for? In this post I'm going to talk about alcohol, a drug of abuse that I have tried, which has its pros and cons, which effects in our brain and body have been and still being studied by Biochemistry, a drug that it is legal but that doesn't make it any less drug .   I have tried alcohol in celebrations with my family. My family uses to drink alcohol in special occasions and I have tried what they are drinking in those opportunities. I have liked the flavour of the other things that are accompanying alcohol, but I don´t like the flavour of alcohol, so I prefer to drink the same that they are drinking but without alcohol or, more currently, I prefer to drink juice. Talking about the advantages, one of the most supported benefits of al...
