Well this picture was taken by a guy near may of the last past year (2009). i found it in a post that this guy wrote in the Murpheek.com web site. there he talks about his "new toys", a kaybord and a guitar and a long history that doesn't matter now.
So, the the photo shows few keys of a keyboard with a guitarr's pick over it.
I found this photography near six months ago, when i had newly bought my electric guitar.
but why i like this picture,?. well, i play keyboard since almost 7 years ago, when i discovered that the music is realy my passion, and that all the metal bands that i liked were cause them plays with a marked sound of keyboard, beeng this what make them different of the other metal bands.
then i began with a long self-taught learning and i began to compose my own music. but when i saw that were harder metal kind that also used keyboard and a friend told me that my guitar composition in keyboard was imposible to be played i started to hear better the guitar riffs, i decidet to buy a guitar.
So, i did it, and i begun with a new self-taught but this time with six years of music knowledge, so it was easyer and funnier, and i begun to love the guitar and it´s sounds.
going back to the picture, i choose it cause when i felt that i loved both instrument, and i saw that my composition become much better knowing two basic instrument of my music, and when i saw the pic i said to myself " this picture is exactly what i where looking for", i feel it's represents me too much and that it shows how is my development in my passion, the music

an integral career

Well as you have to know i study achitecture, and in this discipline are a lot of skills the student have to get. but there are some skills that every one needs, and someothers that depends of the main personal interest area.
one of the skills that everyone have to get, inborn, is the capacity to recognize situations, problems and possible solution in every situations, withut import its complexity. being it a logical perception capacity. other important skill to every architect is can have a mental process of space organization.
and there are other skills also inborn that i belive make the diference about the way of architecture that the student will follow. one is the capacity of create shapes and spaces that can respond to a problem or needeng bonr from a previous situation recognized (from an common inborn skill). and other is an social understanding, that is related with the inter personal intelligence, that make the student skilful to drive social components. of all these skills i feel i have got the first both, but about the other two.... i don't know well, perhaps them both, but i must develop them more.
And the skills we have to learn are bassed in some inborn skills, but that the practice make us acquire them, like the basic structural concepts, the tecnical knowledge of construction, the graphical tools to show what we want to say and humanist concepts we must integrate to our career development.
i feel that in this school the most of the inborn skills are promoted by, but there are some tools that are not obligatory delivered, so we MUST to learn them by our own way, or takeing a not obligatory class to learn them as well.
and if i feel prepared for what future awaits, i think that anyone of my level are. cause we coul know a lot of things, and we could feel much prepared, but the experience is a very different thing. i know it, cause i have had to advice people about thigs related with my career and i did it well. But when i went to Chepica (6th region) to make earthquake's damage registers accompained by an architect, the things i lerned were a lot, and i realized the experience is a very important aspect in the architect learning.

Ben Van Berkel

Ben Van berkel born in 1957 in Utrecht, Holland. he studyed in the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in amsterdam, and got his architect tittle in the Architectural Association of London in 1987, and the same year creates with Caroline Bos hte Van Berkel & Bos Architectuurbureau. his first works are the Karouw electric station of Remu, and the Villa Wilbrink in Netherland. and in 1997 hi is choosen to make the Erasmu's Brige in Roterdam, and is this project that makes him create the UNstudio with Caroline Bos in Amsterdam.

Other of his well-knowed buildings are the Mercedes Benz's Museum, the Reserved Bussines Room, and the Agora Teater in Netherlands. Mercedez Benz MuseumAgora TheaterAgora Theater inside

Something that makes him an integral architecture worker is his vast experience in the fields of urbanism, infraestructure and public and private spaces and buildings. focusing his wonrk in development of the design, a high technology work, and apllying all this in a mixed relationship between the environment, the market demands, an the client requirements. becoming to Ben Van Berkel into a great exponent of the contemporany architecture.
personaly i like this architect's work cause he knows well the haigh tecnology we are using nowadays, also he has a good environment consideration in the sustainable function and in the building context mixing.

well i think the site is very good to learn, have a lot of tools to practice the earing and reading, mixing all of it whith funy pics and interesting thems and news. it has a great way to combinate the learning with a site that shows actuality and news.
it also hasa lot of gramatic's tools to help the visitor to learn, or grow up it's knowledge.
but, i think it has a level a little hard, i mean i think not everyone could get into the site and learn like ohters. it needs a good visitor's english's level cause the shape of the site is like all others, and the visitor has to know what he wants to get if, or he has to know enough english to navigate too well to find what hi needs and could learn.
but still i belive that this is a BBC´s good wise move cause this way it spread it's horrizons beyond of giveing information, reaching the international languge's learning.

well i liked a lot the part where it teach the phrasals, cause it have been one of my worst problems speaking english, so i feel it gonna help me too much, and so.. it´s a good site

EQUILIBRIUM

well, one of may favorites films is this, EQUILIBRIUM" of the director Kurt Wimmer. i saw it for first time at shool, for a pshychology class. it´s about a society, after the third world war, that found a solution for the problem of violence: erease the feelings. this way the new "boss" of this society created a ijectable fluid tghat makes people cant't feel. this way, also were forbiden every kind of things that could make people feels something, like music, decorations, pictures, paintings, pets, poetry, etc... and there were a kind of trained people who´s mission is make the law.
and is one of this people, called "clerics", who discover "again" what is feel, what means feel, and this way he begins to fight against this society, founding in his way more people who "feels", and all they togeder try to defeat this kind of hell. visually the films looks like MATRIX, but for ny this movie is better, has a deeper and critical plot and is less unreal, in a way that makes me feel more part of what happens in the film.
well i think you have to see it.
BYEE!!

All we Die for something

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1ZZreXEqSY&feature=related
I don´t remember when i saw it for first time, but still i die laughing every time a see it. well it's a heineken beer commertial, and based in common girl's situation, about their obsession for clothes, shoes, and shopping in general, that i don´t use to understand, although i try, realy, i try, but i can't. but when the commertial put me in the situation, of a room full of beers, and good beers, and the host tells my drink how much you can!!! hooo ma gooood!!! y think i cuold react like the commeryial´s guys, screaming like a girl, jumping like a girl, fainting like a girl, in a free sale mall jajajajaaj. but, who doesn´t have something that make him cry and shout out loud. doesn´t matter hat it could be, i think everyone have it.
and yeah... one of my "Killer things" is the beer, like music too...
because of it is i laughed too much, cause i felt identified and i thought that there were me and my friends, leaving the girls aside and living this beer dream.
so i just can say BEER RULES!!!... but not in exess

A drunked earthquake

Well, i were in a party at Nadia's home, when it began i where whit two friends talking in the courtyard. I think i were the only one sober, and earthquake bagan. First it was no much strong, so a tryed to lie on the ground cause i like to feel the movement. When i were on my knees and puting my hands on the floor, the movement grew up and i sayd to ma friends they came whit me to the conter of the courtyard. When we were there i felt worried about my other friends who were sleeping inside Nadia´s room. In the moment i thought that "i have to go for them" i saw them comming out from the room. All this happened in few seconds while earthquake was still shakeing us. Then was a moment when the movement almost throw me down and then i begun to felt little frightened, so i said to my self "it is an ERTHQUAKE!!"
When it ended i saw some friends crying, someother full drunked and the most of them worried trying to call them families, like me. I felt frightened cause i left in my hose to my mother and my little sister alone, and they didn't answer. Almost an hour after my mother answer me and told me that everything was allrigth. It was a looong night listening the radio the radio whit information about what has happened. Then early morning all we went to sleep.

Towards my home i saw buildings with few damages. and when arrived i tolk with my mother and my sister about how we had lived the earthquake. Then went up the stairs hopeing my keyboard and my guitar was fine... and it was thath way.
