the best concert I ever had

It was the night of 6 of june of last year, and one of my favourites bands on that time was a british and created in te 2000's band called Kaiser Chiefs.
It was on Teatro la Cúpula on Parque O'Higgins, as it's not a famous band they don't even get that space full of people, the ticket wasn't expensive and a company put free beer on the inside.
It was more like a litle concert so I can saw them very close and I really enjoy screaming all the songs.
At the end of the concert I was happier than ever and we sit dawn to breath a little and a guy come and offer us (to me and my boyfriend) the setlist that the singer was standing during the concert, I couldn't belive it or speak so he gave it to us. The only thing he ask was we follow him on Instagram, and I coulnd't belive he gave us the setlist with footprints and all.
My boyfriend gave it to me and I put it on a frame with the ticket. I look it everyday and it makes me happy.
Then we came home and eat and we couldn't speak like for 3 days. This is one of the best memories that I have, was to me a perfect day.
Sadly, time later they make another album who became famous and it's the dead of what they was. So I could say that I was on the last good tour the made (and I have the original setlist with dirt and all).


A book person



When I was a child, before I went to school y loved the books of activities for kindergarden and my gandmother took that fact as a curious one in a 3 years old baby so when I was 4 she theach me how to read. Since that moment I never stopped.
I do not, not even when I was a kid, like science fiction books. But when I had 15 years, in school in english class our teacher make us read a lot of short stories about science fiction, and by the end of the year I didn't hate it as much as before.
I tought that it was because he was a very good teacher so I never read some science fiction since there until this summer that my grandfather bought for himself Farenheit 541 by Ray Bradbury, an author that we read that year.
I have to say that I liked it, but for my surprise it take me more than a month to read I don't know why. The book was about a character who questionate the system, the society and himself. After he was a fireman, but a fireman who burns books and hunt down the people who have books in their houses sometimes killing them. It's not a difficult one to read or analize but definitely talk about interesting things and I would recomment it to anyone who wants a nonconformist story.

revolution, tobacco and sun

Cuba has a history much different that other countries; has a revolution, an history of making tobacco, people with other ways to see the life, a collective memory in politic issues, a beautiful land, a personality and a character so much different than Chile, between other stuff. So ¿Why I would not like to visit Cuba? No reasons.

There's a episode that Cuba has with United States that consist in the encroachment of Bahía Cochinos, even Silvio Rodríguez has a song about it. In Playa Girón several ex cubans trainned by CIA tried to assault it but the "army" of cuba came early so they capture them and private of freedom, days later Cuba give them back for medicine and food for kids calling them "mercenaries for compote". 

I like tellling that story because it kind of resume the relation that Cuba had with USA until the finish of cold war, but there's another history of Cuba more than just USA relation, that is kind of funny, I refer to the times before USA came and Cuba changed his submission of the spanish government, that is not kind of funny to me. 

Besides the warm, the wildlife, the respect they have to his own country the most I would like to know about Cuba is the social history but told by the cubans, by the lady who works in the farmacy, the professor of a school, the students of the university, the old people.

I dreamed of going there before they had a good relation with USA, to see what's left of the revolution, athough I would love to go now.
