I'm wondering that... I thought that I had fun...But for some people it's not like that. Yesterday, I went out with a friend and my sister, we went to many discos and finally my companions decided to stay in the most horrible disco I've ever been in all my life, actually, I hate discos, I don't like be surrounded by many people and I really hate that stupids boys bother all the time asking you to dance with them, you see a lot of drama there... That's my point of view.
My sister asked me "What would you think when you were old? You will regret not having fun... But I have a different idea of having fun. I have fun when I watch a movie with a friend or family, I have fun cooking with friends, drinking wine, listen to good music (specially jazz and indie music) then enjoy a concert of a good band who works really hard to make different music besides cumbia and covers songs, then dance not in a club but in a small pub where you can dance all kind of music: Electronic, pop, salsa, alternative rock, I don't know.
I like to stay at home, but I really like to go to pubs, bistrots, enjoy coffee and good chats with my friends, I don't know if that's enough to feel that I'm having fun, but I'm comfortable doing that right now.
Have a game night with your friends, it could be in your house or in other's house, and laugh a lot.
Watch this video, I really like this song.

What is Pin Up?
Yesterday I had a conversation with a friend who didn't know about the Pin up art, and I tried to explain him how does that work, I think he didn't understad well, probably it's because here in Bolivia the pin up art is not known, so I decided to write a little bit about this art.
First of all Pin up it's not pornography, some people may say that and they are in a mistake, it is women sensuality art reflected in photography and illustrations. Every woman can be a pin up model, there are a lot of curvy girls and also skinny ones. The touch of the pin up models is that they are sexy everytime in all kind of clothes. Some people may say that pin up art objetifies women, but in my point of view it doesn't, because it's a way that women can finally love their bodies and their unique forms, I don't like to see in magazines skinny girls dressing for big fashion trade marks, they don't show the women reality, they show a fantasy so that's why most of the women are not satisfied with their bodies. Being skinny is not in most cases synonymous with beauty, a woman is beautiful when she is confident with herself, doesn't behave like a weak person, don't use a lot of make up thinking that makes her pretty, when enjoys food and don't worry about calories, when she's avid to get more knowledge, when she thinks for itself, when she reads books.... There are many things that make a woman beautiful, but the main feature of being beautiful is being you, smiling, talking without fear.
That's why I love the pin up art, because it includes the diversity of beauty, women with confidence with itself. Here are some pictures of pin up art.
Make a dinner with your friends, listen good music and dance in the middle of the street or in front unknown people.

Sitting, wishing, dreaming
Tonight I went to "Cafe Paris", a nice and small place on the corner of the main square of Cochabamba, I wanted to be alone and drink my coffee silently, enjoying the moment, taking inspirations of everything around me. But things do not go as you expected to happen, I had company and I couldn't do anything what I wanted to do. Sometimes, you have to take your space to feel you again, to keep your dreams alive and not dead, to know you're still in this life without the advice of others, without the words of others, feel that you are still YOU and not what the others expect you to be. Here, sometimes it's strange going out and have a coffee alone, maybe it's the culture, maybe it's overprotection, I don't know.
The star of day was this video, that I really loved it, I keep watching over and over again. It's a wedding video, but it is really lovely, you can't imagine that was real. The video was made by Geoff Boothby.
Dance with your hands and draw a heart on your bedroom wall, not a typical heart, an original one made by you.

A spring afternoon
This afternoon I started to do the formalities to get my bachelor's degree. the day was a little bit strange. In the morning the sky was cloudy and I thought it would rain, but in the afternoon everything changed, the sky had no clouds and it was warm, so I decided to take a walk after doing the formalities. It's interesting walking in the streets there are so many things to see, the sellers, the flowers, the floor, the people walking very quickly. Cochabamba is a quiet city, and you don't see the typical chaos of the big cities, Cochabamba is unique, the breeze caresses your skin, you see a lot flowers, trees. I enjoyed this afternoon but I wanted a cup of coffee, sitting quietly in one of the best Cafe of the main square of this city.
On the corner of the main square of Cochabamba.
Near the university.
The main square and some flowers.
Trying to look spontaneous... :P
It's tuesday night, listen french jazz and throw pieces of paper with messages to your neighbour's roof, but not threatening messages, funny messages .
