September 2008: I´m back again. My trip to Syria was amazing, really. And thanks to all of you who recommended me knocking on National Geographic´s doors ;) That´s nice, i wish someday my photos can be published in such magazines!. Right now i can´t concentrate so much in dreams, coz it seems these days the world is not ready for dreaming. Everybody seems to get crazy lately. There is quite a negative spirit all around the world, there are only bad news about bad people: kids raped by their parents, countries invading others, poverty increasing among the poorest, stupid gossips filling the news, Bolivia "burning", USA soldiers killing 96 civilians in Afghanistan and nobody caring....ok...what´s left among all these facts? For me hardly nothing, just a good new i read today. Let´s be a little bit simple for a moment: Meryl streep will receive Donostia´s Life Achievement Award this weekend in San Sebastian Film Festival. Ok, call me boring, always resorting to cinema...but if there is a God among actors we can argue whether he would be Al Pacino, Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro or Jack Nicholson...But if we consider there is also a Goddess among actresses, no arguing is possible, she can only be Meryl Streep.

In my opinion Meryl Streep is not only a masterclass at performing, she is also a role model in life: always discreet, aware of social problems, professional and clever in many fields. We can keep some sort of faith on Human Being when such persons are awarded. I wonder how others like Bush, Putin, Aznar, Condoleezza or Joseph Fritzl want to be remembered after death.

 

 

July 2008: I´m scared, coz i cannot fully understand human behaviour. Yesterday they started to sell the iPhone...-something i haven´t heard of before- i must confess. The "problem" is that hundreds waited for hours to buy that thing, a phone in the end ... or more than a phone...a public demonstration of one´s status in life. It´s simply embarrasing, coz the first guy who bought one in Madrid was an inmigrant student. I have nothing against students (i´m an eternal one, btw) nor against inmigrants (i consider myself an inmigrant in this f**** world), but i can´t understand how all these youngs follow campaigns and capitalism in such a way... i mean we are supposed to experience a crisis right now, with prices increasing every day and thousands of other humans with no food to eat or facing unfair wars for oil ... but it seems as long as capitalism (always well closed to Publicity) exists there will always be people who will rather have a phone than eating or having a house to live in. And of course, other humans and their troubles wont mean a damn thing to them.

June 2008: At last najahtu! I´m quite happy coz i passed my arabic exam and i finally got the title. I also passed my university exams and now i´m simply stressed coz suddenly everybody needs everything right now: brochures, promos, websites...I DO REALLY NEED MY HOLIDAYS!

June 2008: INTENTANDO NO VOLVER A ENTRAR EN AQUELLA ESPIRAL que me llevó a crear esta web....Es hora de mojarse un poco en español. Me hace gracia toda esa gente que mucho te quiere y necesita, pero que a la hora de la verdad demuestran que te quieren y te necesitan cuando tienen problemas. Cuando os va de puta madre siempre se os olvidan los teléfonos de los mismos, lo que no entendeis es que los demás también vamos cambiando, nos hacemos más fuertes ante estas cosas, y a lo mejor cuando volvais a llorar no será con nuestros hombros con los que conteis.

Me revienta la ambición de algunos, el derroche del que hacen gala otros, la poca verguenza de bastantes y la búsqueda del interés propio generalizado que se demuestra. Me jode la psicosis del primer mundo y su indiferencia para con el resto del Mundo. Odio a los bancos, son como esos "amigos" de los que he hablado antes, de los que te adoran cuando tienes dinero, y te abandonan cuando te quedas sin un duro. Supongo que el sistema simplemente reproduce nuestra mierda de conducta...¿o somos nosotros los que reproducimos la mierda de sistema que hemos creado?

Ladydrama, espero que estés bien, y que nos veamos pronto y nos podamos compadecer mutuamente ;)

April 2008: A short post dedicated to one of the most fabulous women on earth, who turned 50 this month. Michelle Pfeiffer still keeps her magical aura, she is simply gorgeous and most of all, a real star and woman, quite different and unique compared to all these "new" stars. Call me nostalgic, but i keep my faith on her, in spite of that silly film called "Stardust". I became a fan of her at 12, and 14 years later all my admiration of her is still alive. I think i´ll revise once again "Dangerous Liaisions"; "The age of innocence" and some more...God bless the Queen ^_ ^ Happy Bday and thanks for your magic :)

March 2008: Another couple of amazing movies to learn a little bit more about human´s evils: "Buddha Collapsed of shame" and "There will be blood"....After so many years i keep thinking Daniel Day-Lewis is one of the best actors alive...And i also want to show my support to Rodolfo Chikilicuatre, the best example of what a country´s sense of humor is. Yeah, the fact that he is there is already a triumph and the best way we had in Spain to show what we really think of such festivals as Eurovision. My congrat. to that funny actor who played this joke and keeps teasing all of us ;) ¡Perrea perrea!

February 2008: At last i watched "Sweeney Todd", and i´m Sweeney Toddspeechless. How on earth can you feel so many emotions just watching a film? I guess only Tim Burton and a few genius like him have the answer. I must confess here also my obssession with Johnny Depp, that is coming close to crazyness, bcoz, yes, he rules, he is hot, and most of all, he is a wonderful actor. His voice is still on my head, and he is the best villain Burton ever imagined. What i enjoyed the most was that amazing shot of Todd & Ms. Lovett by the sea..pure Burton. Call me a freak, but i LOVE Burton, i do since i was 11 and i saw "Edward Scissorhands".

February 2008: ¿Puede a veces haber algo de esperanza? Kaise?

January 2008: What the hell is happening in Pakistan? I can´t believe what happened with Benazir Bhutto. Why are lately so many fanatics all around the world waiting for wars? Don´t they know the ones who will really suffer in the end will be their women and kids? God! this world sucks and religion is such a...Ok, just Salaam!!!! Xmas sucks also, so much hypocresy!.

December 2007: New version was launched at last. Sometimes i wonder if there is still someone visiting this site. I deleted my counter and everything, so i lost any possible track of my visitors. I guess if i´ve lost them it´s mostly my fault, bcoz i hardly updated the site. But i couldn´t help it. I got a good job, i´ve been working hard as a freelance this year, and i´ve got more involved in my personal life and in social causes. But i missed my site, so that´s why i´m back. And i wanted to share all the new things i´ve been doing also. So i hope this rebirth will be worthy.
