POST 4 - "TV shows and series"

Image
 I don't have a favorite series, but I do remember really liking to watch 13 Reasons Why.   It is a complicated series to watch, as it shows how life can be for a person with depression, or with any of the disorders or problems shown in the series.  And that's exactly why I like it.  Many times they talk about depression, about suicide, about the things that can cause this, be it rape, family issues, eating issues, bulling, harassment, psychological violence, among others. But in a very superficial way, hiding the ugliest parts of reality, so it's not so real, and in this series you can see it all, which is uncomfortable for some people, but it's good to see the reality as strong as it may be.   I know that maybe if a depressive person watches this series, it can bring them problems or increase their depression, but that's why one should be aware of the things they see, or just watch it with someone else.  I really like series or movies where stro...

POST 3 - Academic challenges in 2022

Thinking about some things that I would change in the curriculum of my career (dance), I would like it to be a more comprehensive career, where other areas of art such as photography, visual arts or simply other styles of dance that are not included in the program as ballroom, pointe technique among others, and that these were electives in each year.   I consider that the hourly load is fine, but I would reduce the hours of the theoretical branches, that they were only once a week, and thus have more hours of practical branches and be able to experiment more in each technique, hopefully to reach the creation with each practice. or perhaps it could incorporate a subject that deals only with creative moments and that there is some space where you can present them.  Regarding the infrastructure of the university, we need more rooms, with adequate floors for dance, with more mirrors and hopefully larger. Having air conditioning is not so necessary if there are windows but it ...

POST 2 - The best concert ever

Image
Rauw Alejandro is one of my favorite reggaeton artists, I consider that his live shows are very good, they have a lot of production of lights and special effects, he has a lot of style to dance and his voice sounds like in spotify songs.  I went to this concert in May 2022, with my boyfriend and it was at the Movistar Arena. The atmosphere of the concert was very calm, people were very excited to see the artist and I saw many people dancing and enjoying every song. I was very happy, because he is a singer that I like a lot, he makes me dance and one of his songs was dedicated to me by my boyfriend, it is a song that identifies us.  I enjoyed the show a lot because I was in a safe place, with good company and I was contagious of the emotion of the people, I was also close to the stage so I could see Rauw Alejandro more closely.  It was a very special concert. It was the first concert I went to when I was older and the first concert with my boyfriend.
