My favorite kind of music

 Today I'll talk about my favorite kind of music. I mean, I love music in general and it's a little hard to pick just one genre because I truly enjoy a lot of genres like metal, indie, electronic, rap, and many more. Anyway, I checked my last.fm stats and I noticed pop is one of the genres I listen to the most. So, in this post I will talk about some of my favorite pop artists and maybe share some concert memories.

This photo feautres Lorde, Carly Rae Jepsen, Charli XCX, Jack Antonoff and Chvrches.


First of all, I have to start with Lady Gaga. She was the very first pop artist I ever listened to. It was around 2011 when her album "Born This Way" came out, a time when I only listened to metal and rock music, and my girlfriend at the time showed me some songs on YouTube. I remember my mind was blown way when I heard "The Edge of Glory", especially when her voice takes on its full glory on the chorus. I liked Lady Gaga so much that I went to her show at the Estadio Nacional in 2012 and let me tell you guys, it was such an amazing night!!! The only thing I regret is that I was far away from the stage because I bought the cheapest ticket. Sadly, she hasn't returned to Chile since then.


Another artist that I absolutely adore is Lorde. There are so many things I like about her music, but it's her way to express her feelings both in her lyrics and in her presentations that made me addicted to her music. It's so intimate and honest and it makes you feel like you know her. It's weird I know haha but I remember when I went to see her at the Fauna Primavera Festival in 2018 and she sang "Liability". The atmosphere became calm and emotional at the same time, it was really dreamy. I remember that like it was yesterday.


Finally, I'll talk about my favorite artist of all time (regardless of the genre): Charli XCX. She's just so unique and she's not afraid to take risks and experiment with her music. No matter how many times I listen to her songs, she impresses me every time. Every album of hers is such a modern classic and I hope to see her live anytime soon (I was supposed to see her at Lollapalooza but the pandemic happened, and it was delayed until further notice).

A country I would like to visit!!!

 Hi everyone!!! I hope you're all doing well :) This is the very first post of my blog, and I want to tell you about a dream I've always had since I was a little kid. I have always wanted to go to countries like Iceland, England or New Zealand, but if I had to choose a country to visit first, IT HAS TO BE JAPAN. I mean, there's so much about that country –the so-called "The Land of the Rising Sun"– that just makes me really excited to learn and see by myself. I'm going to tell you when all this interest in Japan began. When I was a 8-year old kid, I used to play a  trading card games called "Mitos y Leyendas" and there were a lot of editions based in many mythologies of the world, but it was the heavily-based in old Japan edition called "Espíritu de Dragón" (Dragon's Spirit) that got me really obsessed about it. I remember I used to pretend I was the ninja "Hattori Hanzō" or the swordsman "Miyamoto Musashi". Big nerd...

My future job

 In today's post I'm going to talk about my future job. As some of you know, I'm studying Psychology so obviously I want to be a psychologist in the future.  I have always wanted to help people somehow, and I feel I can do that being a psychologist. Perhaps there may not be so much employment field in this profession, but I think mental health is becoming more relevant nowadays. Besides, the pandemic has been really hard and everyone is having a really hard time so I truly believe people are going to take care of their mental health more than before and they will actually see a psychologist and go to therapy. Anyway, no profession in Chile has much of a job field, so I don't let that thought bother me. I don't know yet in which field of psychology I want to specialize, but I have in mind clinical psychology and social psychology. I like the idea of having my own office but I would also like to work with communities so I don't know what to choose yet. But what I ...

The best concert I've ever had

Imagen
In this week's post I'm going to tell you about one of the best concerts I've ever been to. To be honest, I had a hard time trying to figure out which concert to tell you about, but since I told you about Japan in my previous post, I'm going to talk about when I had the chance to see a Japanese band in live concert. So, I'll talk about when I went to see Flow back in 2018. I remember I was really excited when I saw the announcement on Facebook because Flow is the band that made some of the best openings from animes like "Naruto" and "Code Geass". So I was thrilled not only because of their incredible songs and musicianship but also because of some sort of extra emotional connection I have with them. Of course, I bought a general ticket as soon as they were available and I just had to wait until July 15th. I remember I wanted to get to the venue –the Cúpula Multiespacio– early but I couldn't because I overslept. The night before a friend of mi...
