Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz

Hi hedgehogs!

I have been nostalgic for a while. And in that nostagia I found a photograph of my family.
I dont ussually talk about my family, cause... it is my personal life.
But i trust in you hedgehogs, so here i go.

In this potograph my mom, sis and I were posing, we were getting ready to my high school graduation... It was taken in our house on November 13th of 2015, one day before my 18 birthday...

The fact is that... well, as a family we were having a bad time, my mom got separated from my stepdad, we were kicked out of our home, I was very confussed about what to to with my life after high school, a couple of pets died, and a lot of other stuff...

The thing is... in that moment everything was just... fine.
It was the eye of the hurricane. Everything just stopped. We just stopped. And a neigthbour took us that picture. In that photo we smile for the first time in a very long time, and it was genuine, and powerfull. It gave us the strength to go on. To raise from the ashes.

There is a word in my favourite tv series "How I met Your Mother", that describe what this photograph makesme feel. The word is "Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz", is a made up word from the series, but it means: Lifelong treasure of destiny. It is acutually about find the love of your life, but in my case it is about my family.

This photograph makes me remember that every smile is a treasure... my family is a treasure of destiny. And I am a very lucky guy.

Do you guys have a Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz?

The Catcher in the Rye

Hi Hedgehogs! Have you ever read a book that changed the way you see the life? I did... well I'm not exactly sure that it changed how i see the life, I thing that some of that mood was always there, this book just make me racionalice it. The Catcher in the Rye from J.D. Sallinger is a realistic novel about a moment in the life of Holden Caulfield, a fiction character that tells you the story in first person. I read it when i was 15 years old, for the school. I was the only one in my class to finish it. This novel is very popular between young people, especially those who lived their youth in the beggining of the century. The reason is mostly cause the themes of the novel are about comming-of-age, the alienation and the society in general. Personally, the reason of why I love this book is cause it was so easy to identify myself by the main character, I mean... i'm totally a Holden Caulfield in life. The title of the novel cames from a question that other character ask...

The Job of my Dreams

Hi Hedgehogs! Do you remember that I told you about how much i like movies and series? Well, there's something about it that i didn't tell you. When I was younger, my dream job was to be a movie director. I love a good movie and it can be tell that i'm a huge cinephylum. So when is about a camera movement or an scene frame i'm super fan of what the directors do to express the narrative. I know that it can be kind of incoherent but if you ask me about a famous movie director i'm not really wise about it. Of course I know Kubrik, Spielberg, del Toro or even Cuarón, but there's a lot of names on the movie world that is hard to be specialist. I know about good films. I can remember the  name of the films but not the name of the directors. The thing is... at the end i didn't study to be a movie director, cause is an expensive career and actually a very closse world to work in, it's kind of hard rise to that world. That doesn't mean that i...

Hi hedgehogs! The Full Moon is coming. Winter is here (yes I´m a GOT fan, maybe one day we can talk about it) This Weather makes me want a holiday... badly. So today I´ll talk you about holidays, especificly one: my favourite vacation (until now). Context: It was the spring of 2008, I was 10 years old, and my family was hosted a exchange student from Brazil. His name was Joao, he was 12 years old, and he came to Chile to play Basketball for an international encounter in my city. The thing was... My family and I, well... we were pretty humild, but we gave him all we had, and treat him well. So Joao was so greatful, that when he went back to Brazil, his parents send us on cristmas, fly tickets to travel to Rio do Janeiro!!! And in the summer of 2009, my mom, sis and I went to Rio and spend 3 weeks in Brazil with Joao´s family, first on Rio and then we travel to Brasilia. It was AWESOME! It was the first time I fly on an airplane, the first time I went to a different country,...
