Animals!

In the beginning, there was a man a woman and a child. The child was overprotected by the couple, who had no other being to care about, since they didn’t even mind about the other too much.
The child grew useless and aimless, since he had everything. The child never had to move at all or to do even the slightest effort to get something and even though he seemed happy, he needed more than that.
The couple always bought him everything, even the things he didn’t seem to need. Finally, he tried to run and to be free, but actually, all that the child could do was, well, roll. He was pretty overweighed, as you may have noticed. After the titanic effort of walking as far as he could (actually, the child , the child passed out after a couple of blocks) he was retrieved by the local police.
The child is still living a poor life, with mental problems and a lot of healthy issues as well. The problem is that I was talking about the pet of the family, no their son. A lot of people treat their pets like if they were people and causses them a lot of problems in the way of doing so.
It is important to be concient about the fact that our pets are animals and not people, therefore, we have to treat them as animals. Things like spas were invented for people, not for the pets of aimless people who don't know what do with their money.
If you need to fullfill some kind of void, well, ask a girl out, breed a chil, join a club. Anything. Otherwise, you'll traumatize a poor animal because of your traumas.

Teenager's dilemma

One dilemma that a teenager may face is choosing a career path. It may be difficult to choose the best one since there are so many options and since there is actually a lot involved in the action of choosing a career. A teenager may be biased because of the career that his/her parents chose or because there is some career that everybody is studying. Also, there are some teenagers that may choose a career because the school that offers it is popular or is commonly known as an easy school and they don’t want to face a difficult career. Another problem may be friends, who may drag the teenager to one school even though it may not be what they want.
What the student needs to keep in mind is his/her goals. Otherwise it will be easy to get lost. You also need to know that there is no way to be wrong. Life goes on and so the student will be and she /he may end up working in something that had nothing to do with their career.

Birthday cartoons!

A week ago it was my birthday. October 13. It also happened to be my 18th birthday. Well, the day before it I read a couple of webcomics (I'm a new fanatic of webcomics, by the way) that were about birthdays.
Both were pretty depressive and contributed to make me worry about being older. Even though people may think that having 18 is a good thing, I guess it is quite sad. You quit being a boy and have a lot of responsablities more.

So, here they are. The first one comes from a webcomic called A Softer World. The tone of this one is pretty sad, it is about sorrow, and sadness and death. But the style in which they are presented is indeed extremelly artistic.

A Softer World

I love the concept.

The second one is from the Perry Bible Fellowship. This one generally present little cute images and ends the strip in a horrible way, or the other way round, or entwines both of them. This one is an example:

The Perry Bible Fellowship


Way creepier, isn't it?

Birthdays are not as good as they may seem at first sight. The 18th one is just especial because you can do legally a lot of stuff you weren't allowed to do before. Putting that aside, it sucks to be an adult.

Life Burns!


And the last song is this Life Burns!, from the Finish metal band Apocalyptica. They are really famous because they only perform using cellos (and lately a drummer). The song comes from their eponymous album.

I wanted to put this song as the last one as a conclusion of all the post. I chose this one because it says what I think about life: that it is like burning. There is a lot of wicked about life, and each day we are slowly burning. And also a lot that we take for granted in our lifes is hollow.
But to be honest, I don't really think that it matters that much. I mean, it is important to consider this in order not to waste our whole existance i something that is not important at all. I'm not talking from a suicidal perspective, I think that even if life is like that, we need to try to enjoy it one way or another.

This is everything, I hope you enjoyed listening the songs I uploaded as much as I did uploading them.


Every summer you have seen was filled with April rain


The next song is from the Dutch symphonic metal band Delain. The song is called April Rain, from the album of the same name.

The song is about how we imagine a lot of our problems. Life is way better than what people usually thinks. Saddly, always there is going to be somebody who doesn't want to be happy. But happines is within each one. The potential to change each one life resides in us and no mather how much a third person or our circunstances help us to reach happiness, if we don't decide, we won't ever be able to enjoy life.

I know that life sometimes can be difficult, but we can improve it if we decide. I know as well that are certain things that cannot be changed and certain circunstances that won't let us do some things. But we don't have to limit ourselves for that.

Here is the song:

I need to keep the scars to prove there was a time when I loved something more than life


The next song is also from a Finnish band. They perform power metal and they are called Sonata Arctica. The song is called Don't say a word, from their album Reckoning Night.

As I said before, this song as the past one, doesn't have a personal tide to me. But I decided to include because, as the past song, this one represents a situation in a perfect way. But this one is not about love, is about a broken heart. This is one of the most angry yet loving songs you'll ever listen.

The lyrics show us the feeling of the lyric voice who lost somebody who he loved a lot. After the betrayal of the loved one, the only thing that is left is hatred.

This is the video of the song, from their DVD For the sake of revenge:



But since the quality of the other one is quite bad, well, here is another one, which I didn't really intneded to put because is shortened

Would you do it with me? Heal the scars and change the stars.


The next song is from another Finnish band. It is called Nightwish. The song I'd like to show is called Ever Dream, from their album Century Child.

To be honest this song, as the next one, doesn't have a deep reason. The only thing that distinguish it from the thousands of songs that I have in my iPod is that it is one of the most romantic songs I've heard in my whole life. If you could squish it like a lemon, you would get honey mixed with a bit of tears.

This is the video of the song, it is from a DVD of the band, called End of an Era. It is interesting because it records the last time the band played with that singer, just after that concert the band fired her, for personal reasons.
