the humor sense (9)


Really I don’t know if I have a favorite “serie” or tv show. Always changes my tendencies. But in this time I was mention the last tv serie that I saw. And then I going to tell you the funniest podcast for mi in this year.

Let’s start.  Last year I know 3 french friends so I decide to learn his language and for this I focus on the listening so star to watch French series on Netflix. Here I found  “dix percent” or in English “ten percent”. Basically was a manager’s office with manager’s   problems and manager’s successes. Here we can see the life’s of people that work with French actors and conducts his works and life.
Personally I prefer listen podcast and this year I’m start to listen “el sentido del humor” this is a radio show were 3 guys speak about humor and ordinary situations. They do 2 programs at the week, Wednesday and Friday.  The funniest quality be his humor sense. They be very very coarse and I don’t know how to explain, but the most important it is that they make me laugh.

You can listen this podcast on Spotify or youtube. Just have to put “el sentido del humor” and prepare to laugh for a long time. “secopeteco ” be one of my favorite program.

subject (8)


I go like a machine of posts. Really I’m  tire but I have to write the post number 8 and have to be in no less than 180 words so here we go (30 hahaha)-

In this time I write about the subject has caught my attention during  this semester. So I choose the history seminary, this subject we have to investigate and show to the class the results. All themes are in relation with the music. For example in the last work we have to found olds records of different songs  and compare with others records of the same song but with other players,  more recent. You have to understand that this is the paradise for a youtube lover. Really was a great work I was   very  entertaining   and I Knew a lot of new players in this search. Through this subject I learned the evolution of the others instruments and the evolution of the recording process.

And finally one important detail the class starting around 12 this be the best block. I don’t have to wake up  for the sunrise.

Gender roles (6)


In a past class we talk about Gender roles and stereotypes. And I show to the class my position about this conversation topic. Today in this post I try to write what I say in this time.

I can’t remember the exactly words but the teachers question to us about the gender roles in our cases. And I narrate my personal experience. I live whit my girl friend in a small flat and we divide the cleaning, for example, she clean the bathroom (because she prefer this place) and I clean the kitchen (because she don’t like clean the kitchen). Or for make the market  purchase we try to go together. So we don’t  separate in masculine or female works, both try to do anything and take in consideration for example the personal  availability or the personal convenience.
We try to change the old national style when the man work back of house  and the women work in the house and babysit. In fact my girlfriend work and she is the boss in the home.

I think that How society we need to  change  in this area.

Hobbies... (4)


Hi everybody fans. In this time I try to write about my hobbies, sorry, specifically one of my favorite hobby.

When Im start my studies I was very stressed so I looking for an activity for change my routine and relax my body and my mind. One of the most great activities for me its  swimming and I found the University pool.
Im started practicing just one day per week, but the feeling of swim was extremely wonderful so I decide go to the pool five days per week (In this year I have a lot of free time).

In a few months I learn swim the four different styles, these are freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. I was really happy with this hobby and decide to participate in the university competition just for the experience and for know what I can felt in this kind of activity.

Check these: In 2018 I win in a competition of my category.

A photograph (5)

Sorry for the late post, I know your waiting for my post number 4 and 5 but I can't publish this week because Im sick since Tuesday of last week so and I don't want to do anything.
In this time I want to show you an old photo. This was taken in 2010 when I was finishing my secondary studies. If you see in a fast view maybe imagine an artist nude photo, but is not. I remember in this day my friends and me decide travel trough the boarding school for last time. In this time the wording school had  many prohibited places, so was exiting for us to explore this places.
Know, in the picture you see an old bathroom, this was located in 3rd floor, and that was closed since the  1958 earthquake. I can remember this warm morning  and the happyness of this young,  handsome, and slim  boy.

a really good tool for a musician student (7)

I think if you have more tools, you can take better decisions. And in the course of time, the man has developed many tools with the help of technology. The music world is not indifferent to this evolution.
In my personal study I used a very complete application (for my mobil), his name is "tunable" and you can get in the App Store . In this app you can check if your be or not in tune, also have a metronome integrated, and you can use both at the same time. Have different kinds of tuning an you can regulate the frequency. One of the most important feature are that you can record your sessions  and the app analyze this session and show you every musical  note and tell you if your be flat or sharp and the percentage that you play in tune the note.
With all this qualities you can check your progress or see what aspects you have to work for progress.
So I can said that I use this app frequently in my practical sessions.

The wonderful headphones (3)

One of the most recurring activities in my day to day  is listening to music and watching videos (all kind of videos...). For example, when I walk on the streets (I try to walk everytime), I wear my hard-wearing headphones ( I really have to buy new ones all the time -fucking manufacturing companies), I  always keep them in my pockets, waiting to be used. Personally, I'd rather use the headphones than walk with a mega speaker on my side.

Sometimes, I see old movies and watch the typical guy with a stereo on his/her shoulder on the beach, and I think -woow this guy has to be very strong to carry this huge box- what for? To be popular? Maybe... or just for listening his/her popular music. Nowadays, listening to music in the street is very easy. You just have to put your headphones and voilĂ .

Changes (2)

In the last post I mentioned that I am a Free guy running through the life. Well in this period of my life I wanted to become a pirate, yes, a pirate, but a polished pirate, those that  assault cruise ships and dont need anything more than my own brain. A kind of james bond that from the sea  is able to leave absolutely everything a mess yet leave “airoso”. On top of this with a ton of money. This dream is the reason that I applied to study mechanic Engineering. Ups, after time I learned to play the flute and discover  my body, mind and soul through  music and this instrument thats is really similar to a Singer. So I live an internal revolution and suddenly decided to change my way. I had to study a lot for the audition so I left my studies as an engineering and focused on this new challenge.Studying music is really really hard (I think maybe more than  other careers). You stay in a constant learning and practice mode, so you never stop. And this is necesary to learn and discover new sounds and have more tools  for experimenting new things and advance.But one could ask, why would someone want to advance so much ?  Mmmmm for   me its just for pleasure.Me entering the university  wasnt to go against social norms as the actor i am in this life, but really I just want to learn different things.And  Finally I dont want to work but I have to do it for a living. And if someone wants to pay me to play music … Great¡¡¡

My Autobiography by Diego (1)

I was born in Santiago, Chile, 1992. I carried  out my studies at a boarding school.  I was a happy child running through the hallways and roof of this big building called INBA. Here I learned a lot of extracurricular subjects, and one of these was playing the flute in an orchestra. Around 15 to 18, I was a sleepy man. I just had to study and enjoy  life, but the music world changed me in many, many ways. The flute  forced me  to spend long hours  concentrating on practicing many aspects. When I finished school I decided to become an engineer, so I studied at the University of Santiago (USACH). But with the passing of time I learned differents ways to be happy, and I understood that money doesn't have to be the objective of my life. So I changed my way and decide to be a musician. Now I study flute at the university and work doing classes. In one orchestra where I played I met my girlfriend and today we live together, she works hard and I enjoy the life what doing makes me happy. An important detail is that I love my dog.
