Whiplash Review

The other day I went to the movies with some friends to watch a new movie in original version with subtitles in Spanish. The film was called Whiplash.

Andrew Neyman is a promising young drummer who enrols in the fierce music conservatory where his dreams of grandeur are advised by Terence Fletcher, a perfectionist music director who will stop at nothing to realize the potential talent of a student.

The film was a masterpiece. We suffered a lot until the end, but the overall message transmitted a positive message and the final conclusion was incredible.


The actors did a fantastic interpretation. The most difficult role, the director of the Studio Band, was played by J.K. Simons. His performance deservedly took the Oscar for best supporting actor, and his famous phrases and gestures in the film will remain in our memories.

Opinion paragraph

Emoticons ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
  Emoticons have brought a revolution in how to express ourselves through written messages. They look like child's play, but cause a range of direct emotional nuances. I have personally experienced being writing to someone and try to find an appropriate emoticon to say an entire phrase, when perhaps it would be easier to write the phrase itself. The reason for this could be that, just as we simplify words, we also look for ways to simplify feelings or phrases as images that are transmitted directly to the conscience of the receiver. Indirect communication, by means of writing, can become something dangerous to not get to convey everything we want and we would get with a direct or oral communication. That is why we resort to emoticons. For the youngest they are a tool that allows them to enrich written communication, almost as a game. The family is growing and perfecting emoticons. Anyway, talking will always be the best way to communicate. Instead of trying to express our emotions through virtual images, why not we show it face to face?

A summer in Japan

Summer Japanese Festivals

In Japan, summer is the season of fireworks. During this time, almost every night, along the entire Japanese island and its different regions the night sky is illuminated and colored thanks to fireworks.

Bon-odori
Summer concludes with large scale festivals, many with folk dancing meetings, as well as “Bon-odori”. The streets are filled with color decorations typical Japanese. You can find stands selling food and traditional games.

Also in summer, Japanese people usually wear the conventional “yukata”, which I mentioned before, in other post.

Each region celebrates the summer in its own way and has different traditions. If you want to know more in depth about the various summer festivals in Japan visit: http://jnto.org.au/seasonal-attractions/summer/

Describing my favourite place

When I was about 10, my cousin showed me what was the anime and manga. I saw with her entire anime series and lent me her manga comics to read them during the summer. Later I became interested more for all Japanese culture, and awakened in me the desire to travel to Japan. Since then, as you may have noticed, this has always been my dream. Japanese culture has always fascinated me. Japan has a rich and amazing history and mythology. His landscapes take your breath away. The large Japanese cities are also worthy of awe, always so alive, flashy and crowded. The Japanese population is always very respectful and friendly. I find delicious food while unpredictable. All in all someday I would love to visit Japan to see all these things II have heard so many times and check it with my own eyes.
