My cultural Radar

I read the cultural snapshot about Will Poulter, I know it from the Maze Runner movies.

They talked about an album he likes and how the artist is very talented with lyrics and music. Also about a book he recently finished reading about race and the enveloping nature of masculinity. He talked about one of his favorite places to eat because of the quality and variety of food he finds there. He talks about his enjoyment of the ITV adaptation of Len Deighton's spy novel and how good they are. Also about a comedian he started seeing during the lockdown. And about one black-owned eyewear brand that designs its pieces based on its racial mix.

One of the things I found most interesting is the relationship he has with artist Kojey Radical and his music, it´s as if he adores every piece he does.


Now I am going to talk about my cultural radar:

Show: Los 80

I've seen this show several times throughout my life, but each time it affects me differently, and it's always like it's the first time I've seen it. I really like the issues they talk about and how they show them in the show.

Book: The Chronicles of Narnia.

I remember reading one of the first books in the saga in high school and loving the story. Maybe because of the reference between the lion and a god, but also because of the idea of another world.

Food: Korean Food

For the past four years, I have been interested in Korean food culture and I like to visit places where I eat different dishes, recently I wanted to study how food is prepared.                             

Artist: Leo Dan

Ever since I was little my parents listened to Leo Dan in the car, so I started to learn his songs and enjoy them until my whole family associated the artist with me. His music transports me to relaxing places.

Anime: Kotaro lives alone 

This anime is one of those that I thought was going to tell a funny story but it impressed me with the sad reality of the protagonist and how he tried to live happily without anyone noticing this.

Documentary: Infinite memory

Last weekend I went to see this documentary and I was very touched by the closeness to my family's history, I really like the way they present Góngora's life without morbidity in the story.

Job

Today I will talk about a job I would like to do in the future.  Since I was little I loved to play with mini furniture later in my adolescence I liked to play sims and find different ways to decorate spaces. The job I would like to do in the future is interior design because it's important to represent our personality in our spaces. Also, I like combining styles and colors in different places for different activities. I need qualities like being critical, creative, and a good planner because it is important for this job and I have to design the space and how to place the furniture efficiently. I would be good at this job because I like to see the before and after of spaces, and discover different furniture and ways to use them, and also because I like to mix colors and styles to make the perfect mix. I don't have a specific person who does this job and is my inspiration however I have enjoyed watching shows like "The Home Edit" and "Interior Design Masters"...

Someone interesting you follow on social media

Today I'm going to talk about BTS, a Korean group that has been making music since 2013 but not only that.  I found this group thanks to my best friend in my worst moment after a problem I had during my penultimate year in school, exactly in the summer of 2019. I still remember when she brought me to teach me to recognize their faces because it was very difficult for me to differentiate their features. During that time my interest in K-pop was not much because I didn't really understand the language and also the music style could not convince me completely, but when I started to listen to their songs and learn about their meaning, I started to understand why they are a popular group all over the world. They not only make music, but they help new generations to understand themselves and to love the way they are. This includes working with UNICEF in the campaign to promote children's self-esteem since 2017. I not only like their music but also their relationship because it is...

FP Top 5

Well, this past week was very relaxing without class and work. I don't do too many things, but I am still going to talk a little bit about them. Sleep I had a good time sleeping during the week, but my sleep schedule is very messed up because of that. The truth is that I would go to bed early but stay up very late at night doing other things. Watching series It's difficult for me to watch series constantly so this week I decided to catch up on all the episodes I had not seen. One of the series I saw was The King's Affection, it is about a girl who has to pass for her twin brother who was the heir to the throne but he died. Going out with friends During this week I went out with my friends to celebrate the birthday of one of them, we did a lot of things but one of my favorites was to eat Korean food at one of my favorite places because I haven't eaten there in a long time. Hobbies One of my favorite things is doing legos so this week when I went to shop with my mom and a...
