How Green I Am?


being a pro-environment ecologist person is not something you can learn at school (i mean you could, but is not a class) i think it depends on your parents and you when you're older, and of course, on the culture of your place (country, state, region, etc.).

To me recycling is the best you can do for our planet, i try to recycle everything i can, like papers, cans, plastic stuff and batteries, i know i could do a lot more but here in Chile is very difficult to do it, specially when you don't have a car, because there are just a few recycling places and containers so if you live far away from a recycling place, like me, is not easy to carry all the stuff to that place.

Another thing we can do to care the environment is NOT to use a car, prefer to ride your bike or just go on for a walk, i don't have a bike, but i always walk a lot and i use the public transportation.

A couple of years ago i was trying to find an organization who cares about the environment, i was interested to join Greenpeace, but i think they are very exacting with the members because they never accept my request.

Finally, i want to say that i still would like to join Greenpeace, so i think i got to keep trying, i need to feel that i'm doing something important for the world, i want to change things, push the switch. Chile doesn't offers so many options to go green but if we want we can, right?

Becoming a Sci-fi Nerd

Today's topic is Sci-Fi. I'm just a "casual sci-fi watcher('cause i've never read science fiction books or comics)" so there's not so much to say about my own experience with it.. I'm gonna try to response all my teacher's questions with my knowledge and some Internet help :).

I think i like all the science fiction stuff, at least what I've been seen for now is very interesting and i like it because it can give you a funny time watching it, also i now a drawer called Luis Royo, who draws sci-fi things, and he's really good! you should know him, this is his website you to see some good sci-fi art

http://www.luisroyo.com/

I don't know what was the first sci-fi thing i watched, saw or whatever. But i got my favorits like in movies definitely the big boss is Star Wars, but i like more things like Mars Attack... yeah it's stupid.. but sci-fi anyway right? Ok. Now, as i already told you, there is this very good artist, Luis Royo, and i don't know what else.. are superheroes sci-fi? whatever.. you can also watch Futurama on TV.. that's sci-fi i think, there's another good movie that i watched a few days ago, "Hollow Man", really creepy and i liked that one 'cause everyone dies and I think there's nothing left to say so. bye!

New Year's Resolution

Goldin's art is not porn
Removing Nan Goldin's photograph from the Baltic gallery is an act of barbarity.

Art in Gateshead together with the city's Baltic centre for contemporary art have been seen as a symbol of the popularisation of modern art in Britain. But now that "love affair" with is meaningless Gateshead after the police seized a picture by the photographer Nan Goldin from the Baltic.

Goldin is an artist who shows a particular vision of the world in her work, the same world as Warhol and Lou Reed saw.

To take off a picture by Goldin and call it 'paedophile' you must be an idiot. Here are not subtleties: "Either you believe in the freedom of art galleries to exhibit modern art, which is provocative by nature, or you don't"

Art and artist from the first times have been criticized by hurt the "morality" and "decency" or been blamed as pornography.

We can see there are serious problems to understand the modern-art. Art should be seen as an educational instrument, everyone deserves to enjoy art and learn of it.

DRUGS AND PORN


Ok so.. this is what i have to do, not what i want.
Talk 'bout drugs.. mm... no so very interesting. Is like the homeworks and presentations you do on school so.. it got me bored. so let's start with the another topic: PORN

I think porn, and talk about it, is really interesting and talk of porno with your friends makes you think a lot of things like Why people watch it or if it is good or bad to do it, and sometimes i think it shouldn't be like a tabu, you know. I don't think is bad. It could be like a way to have fun with your boyfriend or girlfriend. maybe it could help some people to dicover themselves. But you must have clear that porn is NOT REAL SEX, it shouldn't become a obsesion. I'm not sure if porn actors feel something.. i don't think so. i think for them is just a job.

Now drugs i think people use them like a way to scape of their problems or to get creative, o sometimes they say is like the only way to connect them with their interior person haha something like that. i not against marihuana and i think it should be legal because is not proof it can cause damage to people who use it, but i completely disapprove when people can't live without drugs. when they say they need marihuana (per example) to have fun.

And about child pornography.. it's horrible! children don't know what they're doing, they just do what an adul says to them. it has to be ilegal forever and ever. The End
