Best Genre

 

I must start saying that I’m not a big fan of movies (I prefer reading or playing to be honest), but I can say that I’m a total fan of Horror in general.

Since I was very little, I have always loved to be a bit scared (I loved to watch things like “Are you afraid of the dark?” and “Goosebumps” when I was like 7 years old or less), after that, I used to watch 80’s movies with one of my older sisters – who also loves horror – they were not that scary, mostly because the special effects were not that good (they are actually kind of funny nowadays). But then, when I was 10 years old, I watched a movie I shouldn’t have, which made me really scared and was nightmare fuel for several months, that movie was “Ju On” (the original version of “The Grudge”) and after that incident, I did not watch any horror movie for a while.

After that “shock” of horror, no movie was good enough, all of them were full of “screamers” and others cheap ways of terror, that was until in 2018 when I watched the best horror movie I have ever seen: Hereditary. Hereditary is not only a good horror film, its photography and the performance of the actors is amazing. It is a totally must see if you like true horror.

Here is the trailer if you are interested, it is wonderful!

 

The Best Concert I've Had

Have the possibility to see your favorite artist is one of the best feelings you can have, being able to get a ticket to see them fills you with happiness and excitement, so even when the concert is in one or two months afar, you already feel all those emotions.
I had that chance three times, but the first concert that I ever went was the most important of all, I went to Paul McCartney's world tour 2015, I'm a huge Beatles fan, so in the moment that he came out stage, tears rolled down my face (I was like those girls from the sixties that fainted in Beatles concerts). Actually, I think that was one of the happiest moment of my short life.

Paul McCartney was part of one of the biggest band of all times: The Beatles (1962-1969), with John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. the four of them have made history with their happy and catchy songs (with their sad and melancholic songs too), they have influenced music since their origin and therefore, current music as well.

The atmosphere in the concert was really nice actually (I would like to say the same about Black Sabbath's concert, but don't misunderstand me, the band was awesome, but the people was really rude), people were really kind and polite to me, I talked with the girl that was seated next to me, she also cried when Paul showed up, we singed along all the songs, and when the show was ending, she took my hand and leaded me to the front (we couldn't do that, there were numerated seats). But even if that was wrong, I had the opportunity to see one of my favorite artists from a really short distance (we where seated in silver and passed to VIP diamond, thanks that there were no fences between them) Anyway, all the people that was there stood up and went to the front, but they were not as lucky as I was, I had Paul McCartney about 2 or 3 meters from me. It was amazing!

A Country I Would Like To VIsit

 

Advanced technology, amazing architecture, delicious food, beautiful landscapes, and composed people are just some of the attractive features of Japan, a country with a long and interesting history and culture that has been expanding the last few decades all around the world.

Years ago, liking anything Japanese was frowned upon, but thanks to videogames, anime, manga, and technology in general the Japanese culture is currently perceived as mainstream nowadays. Many people enjoy and consume Japanese media, food, and technology and share it online. And due to pandemic, more and more people are being attracted to this country and its charms.

Japan is not only famous for its pop culture and technology, but this amazing country also has diverse kinds of landscapes, from mountains and forests to beaches and waterfalls. And respect to architecture Japan has some beautiful temples and castles that are world heritage sites, such as the Himeji Castle down below, built in 1333 during the feudal period.

Summarizing, Japan is an interesting country with a lot of history, a rich culture and beautiful nature. And I would love to visit as many museums, temples, and shops as possible when I have the chance, just like any tourist (Although Japan is really expensive!).
