- your favourite book by Virginia Woolf? The other day, I read a couple of pages from Virginia Woolf's novel '' Mrs Dalloway'' and it was depressingly difficult. Stream-of-consciousness novels are tough, at least for me. I also found difficulty when I read ''A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man'' by James Joyce and I'm taking Virginia Woolf as a challenge. So, is there any steps I should take before reading her books and what's your favourite book by her?September 22, 201550
The current music
I love music, I'm passionate about it. My favourite style is rock but I love everything from jazz, to samba through flamenco, punk, bossa-nova, African percussion, reggae, metal, traditional music from different countries, psychedelic music... Everything!
In my opinion, you can find quality in every style of music but mostly I don't like of the current commercial music, I think that the most of them arent' artists. For me they are a products with a very goods publishers behind, they lack their own essence. I am not telling that they are a bad singers, most of them have a beautiful voices or are very goods dancers, the point is that they aren't artists. An artist is able to create something original and I have the sensation that the current famous singers are copies(or replicas) of themselves ( Madonna, Shakira, Beyonce, Katie Perry, One direction, Justin Bieber...) They are very populars at the moment, all people know them and it is very sad because I think that there are more originals singers and bands with authentic flavor that never will famous, It's not fair.And this is happening because the music industry doesn't give support to the original music, because it means to take a risk. They are preferring to go to the secured. In my opinion, it's pauperizing the musical culture of everyone... imagine what would have happened if they had not given an opportunity to the beatles. Taking risks sometimes give a wonderful achievements!Listen to this song: Sand Aura - The Orphaned Child II (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaFFabVDQ7Q) It's an Egyptian metal band with oriental instruments.Hope you like it.

Hi.
As I said before, I will tell you about of my trips in my country or other.
Now I will show you Salento. Salento is my favorite place in the world until I know other. Salento is a small town in Quindio department of Colombia near to my city, there are a lot of people from different countries. The landscapes in this town are very beautiful because on the top of the mountains is the Cocora's natural reserve. You should visit to Salento,it is awesome.
Secondly, today I started to read Dracula, in English clear, I would like to ask, what do you think about of the book? I am surprised because the form the author uses to describe different situations is very good. Is no more. Thanks :)0 votedAugust 18, 20150the true happiness
The Happiness is a thing that everyone wants to find it, a lot of people think that the most important way to get it is to have money in order to get good things...In my opinion the money is very important to survive in the capitalist system, I think it is essential. But I don't think that having a lot of money gives you the true happiness.
The money can help you to get things but finally you are always alone with yourself. Doesn't matter if you have good cars or good houses, doesn't matter if you can pay for the most luxury travels, doesn't matter anything... the most important thing is that when you are looking inside you, you are in peace with yourself. I think that it is the true happiness.Well, I have to agree with you. Money can't buy happiness because, simply, happiness isn't a materialistic thing to be bought. Happiness comes from within.
