A picture is worth a thousand words


I love this picture, I took in my house while children were playing, and I think is a funny picture because they did not understand yet how they must be for a picture, so they were very separate, not smiling and even they looked a bit forced!
The picture shows my brother, Benjamín, and my cousin, Martín. Benjamín is who are in the right side and Martín is in the left side, they are in a Benjamin’s room.  The relationship of Benjamín and Martín is a bit unusual, my family and I always laughing thinking how it will be in the future, Benjamín is Martín’s uncle and they have just a year of difference! Maybe they will fall in love with a same girl, maybe they will go to a parties together, maybe one of them will defend to other one, maybe they will be best friends, I do not know! Recently, my mother and my sister registered them in the same school garden and always when they see themselves only play between them, people say they are very close, I love that J

That room I painted when Benjamín has not born yet, because my mother wants a funny and colorful room for him. I searched in the web animal’s drawings and one day I started to paint. I chose the wrong paint, latex, and my house smelt too badly for too many days after that I finished. This wall takes me three days, but it was so great, I love paint!

I took this picture because I have not taken any picture of them, and my family always says the pictures was losing, nobody takes pictures now, nobody has picture’s album. How nobody reveals photos, pictures are only in the computer and I think it demotivates to take photos.

TV serial

Although the role of the TV serial have in society is often the entertainment, it also show us our society as it is. In the Middle Ages, only the jester could laugh of the king, in our society, the TV serial does some similar: show us our weaknesses, our absurdities, our problems. TV serials are specifically diagnostic of us, and that can like or dislike someone; some serials TV are too heavy, too boring, too raw, too false, whatever.
I have a favorite TV serial, maybe it is favorite TV serial of many people because it is very popular! My favorite TV serial is The Simpsons.


I considerate that The Simpsons is the best TV serial because it speaks about all society’s topics like education, politic, environmentalism, family, etc. through a typical American family: a couple married since years with three children that live some like a “normal” life. In addition, Springfield, city where The Simpsons live, represents different social groups and interests that are constantly related.
I often watch this TV serial with my brother in my house when I have time, I try to have time because is the moment to laugh and comment the episode! I really love this TV serial because it help me to spending my time with my family J
