Living a Dream! :)

Good night dear followers, today was a wonderful day!

As you already know, I am spending my holydays in Ochsenhause (Germany) singing in an International Choir. Today was the first concert of our tour and the playhouse was completely full! I am amazed by the musical culture in this country. Being a musician is such a respectable job! It’s almost as if people were aware of the passion and effort that this degree requires.

The classical music part of the concert was amazingly beautiful, however the highlight concert’s part was de modern one. Although just a very few percentage of the public knew the arranger (our director), the name of the composer and musician caught everybody’s attention, Steve Wonder!! Our director had arranged songs from his CD “Songs in the key of life”, which is actually my favorite Steve’s CD. I am eager to start tomorrow’s concert.  

All in all, the day was enriching, but so is going to be the night, there’s going to be an outstanding party for celebrating the success of our concert. It’s a very touchy moment, at least for me, because you cannot often see people from twelve different countries all together, having a good time and getting to know each other leaving their differences aside.

PS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMvIT4QXU_g. Here you have a lip dub of Ochenshausen people! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

My whiny roommate says we are already late for the party but ... Ups! She is right! You know full I would go on talking to you, but I can’t!  ‘Hope to see you all soon! XOXO!!!

THEY CAN'T GET INSIDE YOU

They can make you say anything - anything – but they can’t make you believe it.

There is a saying old says that hope is the last thing we loose, but what happens when we don’t have anything? What happens when there is nothing to live for? To fight? To wake up every morning? To be happy?

In that moment nothing Is important and everything is irrelevant, you’re empty. Thereso, which es the reason for the people who lives in Oceania (London) to be? They live exclusively for the Party; they just love THE BIG BROTHER. They are nobody.

Apparently this can seem just an unnatractive fiction system, but in fact it is as real as you and me. Among the humanity history there have been many Big Brothers rolling all over a country with goodthinkful population. For example in China, Cuba, Russia, South Chorea, … What do these countries have in common? They are/were communist, a similar system as the one used in George Orwell’s book. The main points of this system are:

- No social classes or State

- Same rights and obligations, as well as economic status

- No private possessions

- The Government has all the control over the economy

By the way, it may be a good system if the leaders were not corrupted, if everyone agreed their decisions and justice was not hidden in some forgotten place.

On the other hand, the quotation I chose is not true, as many of the story details, “they” can get inside you, they mostly do, with pain, fear, incomprehension, … in the end, people falls, their ideas are not there any more, just as in Winston’s case, who ends crying of joy because his private fight has ended, because he finally loves BIG BROTHER.

"PEOPLE JUST DISAPPEARED"

As everybody knows “the energy is not created or destructed, just changed”, this means that the total amount of energy in the Universe remains constant over time, no matter what. Then is it possible that an ancient star whose life finished many millions of years ago has still a part in someone’s body? Impossible at first, but it is true! Does It happen the same with the amount of mass? Is it possible to physically disappear ? If you’re not an electron inside an atom changing your cape position, it is physically impossible. Then, what is this sentence talking about?

For someone who has read “1984”, the first thing that comes to our mind is the action of “vaporizing”, I have chosen a quotation of the text that describes pretty well the meaning of this word. Here it is:

It was always at night – the rough hand on your shoulder, the light in you face. People just disappeared, always during the night. Ad then your name disappeared, your existence was denied and then forgotten. You were, in Newspeak, vaporized.

Awesome, is not it? If by any reason the Party (the unique organization of people with the same political aims in the book) thought you where a dissi

dent, you were immediately a fish out of the water which had to be thrown down the toilet. Moreover, your existence has always been a beautiful dream of one night and by that time it had already finishes, your life was gone.

Thereso the objective of this method was to keep the population under control by frightening them to the point that they can not act, think, feel, if BIG BROTHER does not say so, in other words they automatically became white sheep without own ideas. The perfect control system.

Nevertheless, on the other hand of the herd, there are the grey and even black sheep, longing to do something to keep them alive, to change the system as well as the society minds, but in the end, Jorge Orwell lives a message as clear as, there is no way to change the system.

TWO AND TWO MAKE FIVE

I't's well known that mathematics are universal and thereso its are the same in the earth planet, in the moon or in the most isolated planet of the Universe. For example, 2+2=4, it's always four and not any other number. Then, why says the tittle that the result is five?

First of all we have to take in account were is it written, in the book “1984” by George Orwell. Once we know that, this sentence starts having a little bit of sense. The story's book takes place in London, Oceania, and the power that raises is a totalitarism. Do you know which are the main characteristics of a totalitarian system?

- The state recognizes no limits to its authority.

- Regulate every aspect of public and private life.

- A lot of propaganda campaign

By the way, on the story Big Brother is always telling everybody how to behave, what to say even what to dream and the Though Police applies the laws and punishments to the dissidents, that may be or not. Furthermore, Big Brother is always truth and as consequence if he says rabbit fly you will do belief those animals can really fly, or if he says you're name is Charlie and you are called Jack, your name from that moment has always been the same, Charlie. If we follow this reasoning method, is there any real memory? Any true fact? No, there is not, so if the lider says that two and two make five, you agree.

NASTY POWDERS"

(...=Roahl and his friends are speaking)

Every time they had the chance to buy some sweets, Roahl and his friends used to go to their favourite candy shop, but only once a month they bought the “nasty powders”. This candy was a very dangerous one, the side effects could avoid you to see for a whole hour. Moreover it had so much dye that you had to brush your teeth three times at least until your smile looked white again.

Roahl mother know about this stomach bombs, thereso she decided to invent a process making story of the candy as convincent as she could to persuade Roahl and his friends to not eat those powders again.

-Dear boys, Did you know that “nasty powders” are made of pigeon mess and trol snot dehydrated ? … Yeah! Don't look at me like that! You think I'm kidding you because trolls don't exist? Believe me, they DO exist! Do you want to know how the powders are make? … Ok. First of all, specialist farmers get the pigeon's poo and they joined in a huge pot with some rats and worms. Then some incredible and brave troll hunters pour the semi-liquid snots inside the mixt of dead animal bits and disgusting sheet of pigeons. … Sorry, I shouldn't have said sh.. that word. Once all the ingredients are inside the recipient, an immense whisk mix it all. Then, when the mixture colour turns blue, machines stop and the nauseating sauce is left into a dehydration machine, which takes all the water of it. As you can guess at the end of the process the blend has become your lovely “nasty powders”, and more than the half of it makers had to throw up before they finish the product... Now tell me, are you going to buy ever again “nasty powders”?

ALL I CAN SAY IS: REVENGE!

There is one thing I will do, I will have revenge!

There are many ways to obtain it, but I think the best would be the following one:

First of all I would get a little bit of the mouse blood into a bottle. Then I will buy some necessary things to execute my plan in a hardware: a cheap string, a little brush and some nails. What would I do if I had all this material? You will know very soon.

The next step will be based on encouraging my friends to eat in a park near the shop so we would be ready to act in the correct moment. We will wait until the nasty and ugly shop assistant leave the candy main place at midday and take the chance by that time.

First of all we would do a knot in the tail’s mouse extreme, after that, we would stick part of the nails in the shop walls so the dead animal would stay hanging. The last action would be to paint the crystal of the shop (because it’s easier to clean the paint in it than in the walls) and write something significant in the walls, kind of:

PIGGY WITCH!

MY GREATEST WISH IN LIFE

Seldom we are asked about our greatest wish in life, it’s something private that may say a lot of one-self… Being honest, I don’t know. Let’s say I’d like to be a singer!

Since I was a child I liked to sing everywhere I went, it made me happy and free, but certainly I used to sang out of the tone almost always. One day a friend of mine asked me to go with her to the children’s UNESCO choir, by that time I was ten-yeared. I can perfectly remember my first day, my future partners were warming up their voices with very strange movements and faces, what a group of freaks, I thought. In fact they were amazing people doing something ordinary in singing world, how could I know?

Time went by and I grew up, but my passion for music grew faster than me, thereso I started playing piano and going to other choirs. Nowadays I’m in the Badalona academy of music, learning music as much as I can.

By the way I would not like to be a singer of disco music, even if it’s the one that may make you reach. I want to work in my own music, the one I’ve decided to play: samba, jazz, blues, gospel, pop, rock, … not disco or house.

Being a singer has many good aspects. You can travel to many places, meet people from everywhere, be in touch with other cultures, practice your Italian and German as well as your English, … I almost forgot, i would like to have a husky!

All in all, if you’re a little famous and good at your job being a singer, you will have an amazing life! Thereupon I’ll try to give my best to become a professional one! :)
