Entry
Today I had a very simple task on in my job, but I spent too much time to solve solving it. The reason was that I did not feel good because i have a little slight cold now. After my job, I went to the a special meeting where i could listen to some reports on the topics of my speciality but it was not so as interesting than as I predicted. I watched an interesting video about how Tarantino creates/created his unusual dialogs in his films. I like his films so much. I was going to watch some new english videos and improve my vocabulary but a I had no time for that and so I hope I will can do it tomorrow.0 votedFebruary 28, 20173About my day
Today was a very hot and tiring day. Despite it being is kind of a holiday today I spent my whole day studying and making a video class about code version control. Also, in this "four-day-holiday" I was able to watch Prision Break before it comes back to on TV.
I'm looking forward to managing my free time better so I could can do everything I want to and also rest. I usually wake up at 6am, go to work at 7am and just go back home at 11pm after college. Also I also have classes at the on Saturdays from 9:40am to 1pm.
I usually study at my lunch time or while I'm at on the bus.0 votedFebruary 28, 20170Do some things today your future self will thank you for
I read a quote one day. "Do something/ some things today your future self will thank you for". I think it is a meaningful sentence. We love to do some things which gratify us instantly. We eat what we enjoy. We watch what makes us happy. We play what we are fond of. All these things are not bad. But there are some things more worthy to do which your future self will be grateful for. Don't let your short term gratification hold you back and sabotage your long term achievement. It is worth eating some foods which aren't delicious but can make you be more healthy. It is worth reading some books which aren't interesting compared with Hollywood movies but can make you be wiser. It is worth practicing your craft over and over again no matter how hard it is. Do some things worth doing which do not just gratify us instantly. You are what you create. Your future self saying thank you to you will be a beautiful picture.

Sometimes it is hard to develop a habit. You want to do some exercise. You want to keep your body in shape. You spend some money joining a gym. You decide to do some exercises after you leave your workplace every day. However, when you leave your workplace you feel that you are a little bit tired. You think that maybe going home and watching some TV shows is/would be better than going to the gym and doing some exercise. You think that maybe tomorrow is/would be a better day to start your exercise program. So you choose to go home, sit on your sofa, eat some popcorn and watch the TV show. Unfortunately, the same story happens over and over again. The gym membership card never gets used (or is never used). The gym takes your money and never has the opportunity to provide you with its services. You lose interest in doing some exercise. You forget why you joined a gym. You understand why your waistline is increasing. But you don't have the strength to turn it around. Moreover, you lost your gym membership card.

Yesterday I just started reading a book recommended by my brother. Michael Foucault is one of the authors I always wanted to delve into deeper but never had the chance to do it before. The book seems to be quite interesting and I hope to regularly dedicate part of my day to reading it.

My city has an important problem everyday, particularly during rush hour, which is traffic jams. We have roads in which all types of vehicles don´t move properly and therefore, we have problems with so many cars in the city. On the other hand, it means an increase of pollution levels. Another problem is the crowded exits from the highway to the city centre, which is worse on rainy days.
In my opinion, other forms of public transport do not exist, this city needs choices of transport, but above all, we, the Council should create/develop proposals for limiting urban traffic . A series of measures like reducing taxes for those who do not use the car every single day.0 votedMay 15, 20151Tomb-Sweeping Day
China's traditional Tomb-Sweeping Day which is on April 5th each year is a statutory public holiday in mainland China. It is a time to remember the deceased and visit ancestrol graves. On this day people clean or rebuild graves and bring many different kinds of sacrificial offerings like food,fruits,spiced alcohol,hell bank notes ,grave clothes and so on as gifts for the dead. People also light candles,burn incense and set off firecrackers in front of the graves. Flying kites is a way to honor the ancestors as well in some regions.

Bomba Estereo is a colombian band that plays a mixture of electronic music, rap and colombian sounds like cumbia and champeta. (I will write about champeta soon).
Well, I like this group because its music makes me feel good, It's like a mixture of cultures. I want to dance or sing when I listen to their songs.
If you want to listen to them, check out these videos
