Festival Iberoamericano de teatro de Bogota

This past Friday El Festival Iberoamericano de Teatro de Bogotá started. It is one of the world's largest performing arts festival. Many shows are brought to Bogota. From theater to dance showcases, all are performed through the weeks of March 19th and April 4. My parents had bought tickets to go see a Tango show. My parents had seen a show directed by the same director when we were living in Argentina. Of course my mom was utterly convinced that I had seen the show with them. For about five minutes she wouldn't stop trying to make me remember about the show and how "we" went with the parents of my best friends. When my dad found us, after parking the car, he told my mom that they didn't take me to that show. My dad was stressing about how we were going to be late on the car trip to the theater. Usually when we are late the blame is automatically on me. If we leave after twelve on a Sunday to visit my grandfather, its my fault for sleeping in. OK they really only say its my fault when we leave late on Sunday's but they say it every Sunday, its not my fault, I need sleep! Anyways on the car trip to the theater my dad said that we were going to get there late and that it was someones fault(hint) mine (hint) that we left late 'cause that someone (me) wasn't ready on time. Not only were we one of the first fifty people in the theater, but we had to wait about forty-five minutes until the show started. Also my parents proceeded in talking about who knows what for the fourty-five minutes leaving me to try and contribute to the conversation and send blackberry messages to my brother. The day before I had gotten into a fight with my brother, Gabriel. The fight was about how he had responded to my message. Then the fight turned into just insults between each other. When my mom got home she called Gabriel and he told her about our fight. When I read the conversation to her, keeping somethings I had said from her, she got mad at me. I tried to explain to her that she couldn't be mad at me for trying to defend myself. Meanwhile my friends were in the back of my car laughing their heads with my examples. I used sharks and monkey's/ apes as examples. To my defense they were very good examples, at least to me they were.Getting back to my original point I started talking to him. He had just gotten back to New York from Miami. He was in Miami for spring break. I had forgotten that his birthday was on Sunday. I forgot that the twenty-first was on Sunday. My mom told me to tell him that she would call him later that night or the next day. He was really boring to talk to though. He almost never says anything, unless we start fighting.
Then the show started. It began with a music group playing a song. After, another song began playing and the dancers came out. This is when my parents realized it was the same show they had seen years ago. The show had many dances. The dance that was created before the Tango, the Milonga, rock and roll dances from the sixties, new age Tango and Tango.
At first I didn't think I would like the show, but as the show progressed I started liking it more. In the end I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone who is in Bogota.

Last August one of my best friends, Valeria, moved away. Even though we started out on a bad note we ended being best friends. I'm not quite sure why we did but soon we got passed it. I think out of all my best friends she has been one of the only ones that really knew what I've been through in my life. After me she the one who has moved the most. So she really knows how it is to move after being established in one place for a period of time. Especially when you're older because my other friends know what its like to move but haven't experienced it as much as we have and so much at an older age. I had always seen her as the "motherly" figure in my group of friends. While Fernanda, Sophia and I were goofing around with shaving cream she was the one looking at us with a face that clearly said "you are going to regret this and DON'T TOUCH ME!"
Eventually we got a scolding from her mom and wet from head to toes. She was always the one who would worry about everyone and remind everyone to bring everything. At the end of eighth grade she was the one who I most relied on and who I knew would really listen to me without being biased. I always knew she had gone through what I had gone through so many times that it was a relief actually knowing that someone really knew how it felt moving, leaving friends, your homes and not being in one place throughout your childhood. When she told me she was moving I couldn't believe it. The person with whom I had had so many long talks was moving. It was the first time one of my closest friends was moving before me. I was used to move before any of my close friends moved or at the same time, but never this. It didn't really hit me until the day, or night, she left.

Almost Alice

Yesterday I went to see Almost Alice or Alice in Wonderland. I have no idea what the real title is anymore because some people say its called Almost Alice while others say its Alice in Wonderland.
Anyways, when the movie started I was so exited to see it for all the reviews given to it. The first 20 minutes into the movie I almost fell asleep. I don't mean any disrespect but when it starts its kinda slow. The first scene is of little Alice, when she was about five or four years old, telling her dad that she had another nightmare and she described some parts of wonderland to him. Then its Alice sixteen years later or something on a Carriage riding with her mom to a party. Once they get to the party everything starts happining really slow. She dances, walks with a Lady, and get a marriage proposal in like half an hour when all of that could have happened in less than twenty minutes. After that she falls into the rabbit hole and she once again goes to Wonderland. This is were you can get confused if entered the cinema thinking that this would be an exact remake of the Story Alice in Wonderland. This story is of Alice coming back to Wonderland. Though a lot of what happens in the original story happens in the movie, a lot of different things happen too. She always thinks she is asleep and she doesn't remember anyone.
I don't want to give anything away so I'll just say what i thought of the movie. I thought that it was a very good movie. All the effects they put into it and the story was really good. The only problem I had with it was that I thought it was long. I mean not long as three four hours long but the way the movie was made it seem as if five minutes were twenty. I've seen Saving Private Ryan, that's a long movie. But you don't notice it as much, well at least I didn't, because your always wondering is that him? Wheres the private? Whats going to happen? Etc. But in Almost Alice every scene seems to be to long or too slow.
Though by being like this it lets you really know whats going on. In other movies that try to put to much in the hour and a half or two hours you go out of the movie wondering " What just happened?". In the end I thought it was a good movie and that people should watch it.

Ralph Lauren

The other day I was watching the Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 2010 Fashion show. I'll write about the fashion show tomorrow. The point I getting to was that there's a Ralph Lauren Magazine, TV, Paint, Restaurant and Book. I couldn't believe it. The designer Ralph Lauren had such a success with his line that he was able to make a Fashion Magazine, Fashion TV Channel online, and a Restaurant that are all connected to the clothing line. Apart from these creations he also made a whole new clothing line in 2005 called Rugby. This line is angled to younger people, College students. It attracts them by giving them a 20% discount on the clothing just by showing their College I.D's. Ralph Lauren has little by little grown an empire. While his line Polo by Ralph Lauren, as a more casual choice, attract parents who buy for themselves and their children. His line Rugby attracts teenagers and young adults. As a more comfortable and preppy choice and so on. He is truly one of the most respected desginers in the industry

Oscars

Yesterday marked the end of this semesters red carpet events. The most anticipated event was transmitted through out the whole world, The Oscars. The Red Carpet was transmitted in E! in Colombia and in the other 120 countries with E!. E!'s correspondents were Ryan Seacrest in the Red Carpet interviewing and Giuliana Rancic with Jay Manuel in a box above the carpet commenting on the fashion. After the hour and a half of the red carpet I turned to TNT. Though the Oscars ceremony was a little bit tardy to start in this channel it was the only one in Colombia broadcasting it. It attracted the highest U.S audience in the past 5 years. With 41.3 million while last year 36.3 million viewers tuned in to see it.
The Ceremony started out with a song performed by Neil Patrick Harris. Like last years opening act performed by Hugh Jackman. Then the two hosts, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin, made their entrance and started to make their jokes about the nominees. Then the ceremony started and Celebrities after Celebrities took foot on the stage to announce the Oscar winners and to claim their statue. There were many emotional speeches like the speech Sandra Bullock gave when she received Best Actress Award. She thanked the Tuohy family, the family of the film "The Blind Side' for which she won the award. She came emotional when she talked about what the Tuohy family did with taking in the boy and raising him as their own and when she talked about her spouse Jesse James. In the end the Award for best Motion Picture of the Year was taken by Kathryn Bigelow's film " The Hurt Locker". The Best Actor In a Leading Role award was won by Jeff Bridges in the film " Crazy Heart" while The Best Actress In a Leading Role was won by Sandra Bullock.

Death

"Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyways."- Anonymous

Death. This is the greatest mystery to all mankind. No one really knows what's going to happen to them after they die. Is there really Heaven or Hell? Will my soul live on? Will I die and then be reborn into another life, Reincarnate?
There are many beliefs around the world. If you see all religions have a way of telling the people what is going to happen after you die. In Christianity/Catholicism there's Heaven or Hell. If you've been good in this life you go to Heaven if you've been bad and do awful things you go to Hell. While in other religions such as Buddhism they say that after dying your soul will continue living and reincarnate into another body of life. But no one is sure. There are also other beliefs as souls staying in the world roaming around until they are ready to let go and go to the afterlife.
In truth everyone is scared to die. Even if some deny it, don't talk about the subject or even sometimes try to fool other people and themselves by saying they are ready for it. Some because of what they have done in their life. Others because they are scared that they won't be remembered after they leave this world.
You don't really take into account death until you've seen it up close. I mean at least I didn't until I did. Since I was a little girl I was scared of the topic of dying. I tried to do anything but think about that. I don't know from where that fear came out of. But every time I saw my grandmother I couldn't help but think about the suffering. I mean I had always seen her so fragile, like if you touched her then she would break. Since she was a diabetic I saw her get her insulin shots and all the pills she took during the day. She was always so peaceful about the whole thing, but now that I think about it I don't think she wanted anyone to know about the pain all those shots gave her. She was one of those people who doesn't want anyone to worry about them. Towards the end she had to have an oxygen tank with her at all time. But I never really thought she would die so young. Even though I saw this every Christmas break that I came to Colombia it never really crossed my mind. Even though both of my dads parents had already died. My Dads dad died before I was born and my dads mom died in 2001. I dont think these affected me as much because I wasn't in Colombia when it happened.
When I found out that she had died I really didn't know what to do. My dad had woken me up told me that we were going to Colombia. I asked him why. When he was about to tell me the terrible news I overheard my brother, Gabriel, telling his friend over the phone that he couldnt go to his house because my grandmother had just died. When this information got to my head I really didn't know what to make out of it. I was 10 at the time and that was the summer that we were moving back to Colombia. I only realized that this was all true when I got to Colombia and saw all the grief on my families faces. I didn't understand why it had to be her, why not someone else? Even though I had lived all my life with her being at a fragile state I couldn't make out why she had died. I had always seen her as a strong person, the person who kept everyone calm. I never saw her get angry at anyone. Even when I was being a little brat she would always try to get what I wanted.
After seeing that death was unpredictable I couldn't help but wonder. Did she go in peace? Is she out there looking out for us? Will I see her again one day?
If you really notice like in movies or books how they describe someone passing on, they describe it as something peaceful. I mean if you really think about it maybe if you're wounded or something your last moments might be painful, but that last moment you can tell that a wave of calmness and peacefulness has overcome the persons body.
I think many people see death as a bad thing only because they have lived what death causes. Tragedy, grieving and mourning in the family. Sadness and depression. But if you take that away you see that the person has stopped suffering and passed on because they had contributed everything they could to the world.
In my opinion no one really dies. Their memory will be remembered and stories about the person will be told so that little by little, even if a few people have the memories, they will live on forever.
Me saying that you shouldn't be scared of dying is a little bit hypocritical since I'm scared of dying. But in the end what you do is going to be your legacy. You cant be scared to do what you think is right or speak your mind. You have to do everything you want to do while you still can. Like James Dean once said : "Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.”

Change

"Change is the universal constant by which mankind reaches his ultimate catharsis." - Juan D. Nieto
I asked my older brother to tell me quote. When he told me this quote I really didn't know what to make out of it. I mean for me it was pretty obvious at first, change is something you can't escape from. The last part had me a bit confused. "... By which mankind reaches his ultimate catharsis." I had to Google what catharsis meant since it wasn't in my vocabulary before. It means "cleansing", "purging", or "clarification". This word comes from the Greek word kathairein. When I found this meaning, the quote had changed its meaning. For me the quote means that changing is a way of clarification or cleansing for the human being. No one can escape it no matter what you do. You'll end up changing for bad or good. This isn't the only meaning to this quote to every person the meaning is different in some way or the other.
I think this is really sad since people who were once really close to you became mere people that you pass by without saying hi to or even looking. All those good times shared will only stay in your memory as if they would have never happened. Just like moments looked backed on years later and being confused with dreams instead of reality.
It doesn't matter if you move or stay in the same place all your life this will happen. Although I've moved 5 times in my short years of life I know how it is to see someone who you were friends with go from being like a sibling to being a complete stranger in a matter of months. All you can think is why did this happen? Did I cause this? Why are you like this now? You can't stop but wonder if you had done something differently would it still be same or was it inevitable.
Sometimes it's you who changes and you don't even know it until it's happened and your best friend is with other people. This has happened to me. Changing and seeing people change. Either way it's not fun to be a part of. Sometimes you realize that you and your friend aren't so close anymore until they leave and you can't take anything back. Or you can even realize what's happening but you do nothing to stop it. I just wish that people could realize when they are hurting the other person in the process of changing and stop to see if what's happening is for the best or the worst or even necessary.
I know what I've said is only the bad part of change. But if it weren't for change then I wouldn't have all the experiences that I have today. I wouldn't have all the friendships, strong or weak, that I've created over the years. I'm sure I wouldn't be who I am if I wouldn't have seen change around me or if I hadn't changed at all.

No School Today!

There was no school today! The bad part about finding this out?? Waking up at 5 in the morning. The school couldn't send the e-mail notice on Monday. Why? Who knows. Maybe they just wanted to own every single student and have them wait until 5 am Tuesday to announce there wasn't any school. Of Course the first thing my mom told me last night was, "Camila, tomorrow when you wake up don't forget to get online to see if there's school or no school. Then come to my room and tell me if I have to wake up or no." OF course she couldn't do me the favor, I had to wake up at 5 get up from bed, go turn on the computer, wait until it finishes turning on, go online to the website and see if there was school or not. Then proceed to go open my parent's room and tell them if they had to wake up or not.
When I turned on the computer all I could focus on was praying for there to be no school today. When I saw that there wasn't any I got really happy. This happiness only lasted momentarily since I realized I had woken up at 5 30 in the morning that day and I didn't have to go anywhere. The worst part of all, I wasn't sleepy. After telling my mom that she didn't have to wake up and she could keep on sleeping I went to my room hoping to get some sleep. When I was in the middle of dozing off my maid knocked on my door so she could leave my breakfast. After waking up completely, again, I told her that I didn't have school today and she left. I turned on the T.V. T.V usually makes me sleepy. I put sleep for 30 minutes just in case. Fortunately before the 30 minutes passed I fell asleep. I woke up at around 11 to a call of my mom. After waking up, again, I went to talk to her. To my delight she had hung up. So i called her back kind of irritated. She told me that my cousin had just given birth to a baby boy. This took any sign of irritation I had. She had been in the hospital the whole weekend and finally gave birth. When I went back to my bedroom I received messages on my Blackberry. My friend Fernanda asked me if I was going to ,my other friend, Sophia's house. I went on Facebook to find out what she was talking about.
There I found a in box message informing me that I was going to Sophia's house to bake cookies for strike day. Then I got ready to leave and I called my mom to tell her. Afterward I went walking to Sophia's place. She lives like 2 blocks away. Fernanda was already there when I got there so we started baking cookies. We were going to bake sugar cookies. When we started doing the cookie batter we all knew that we weren't going to take it seriously. We did the cookie dough and then we began making the shapes. We made all types of shapes. We made circles, letters, smiley faces, worms, a huge gingerbread person and other unmentionable shapes. Apart from this Sophia filmed us making the dough and our conversation. When we were finishing baking the cookies and almost finished eating what was rest of the cookie dough Sophia's mom came in. When she saw the cookies she looked at us weirdly and then looked at Sophia with an angry face. Let's just say she didn't like some of the shapes. But on the bright side she liked the flavor of the cookies. After doing the cookies we saw My Sisters Keeper. Into the first 20 minutes of the movie my eyes became wet. Here's something you should know about me. I cry in every single movie. I don't know why. But I don't think there's been a single movie where I haven't cried at least a little bit. Towards the end of the movie I was crying my eyes out.
Fernanda took me home later and now I'm writing on my blog

Weekend Summary

FRIDAY:
I went to school. At 2 pm Fernanda, Sophia and me came back to my house. We ate pasta with salmon which was pretty good. Then we watched Paranormal Activity. I made them think that I had already watched it so I got to scare them a couple of times. Then at 4:45 we started heading to our school to watch a dance competition that started at 5. It took some time going up to the gym since my school is on a hill and my friend Sophia has a cast on her foot due to her football incident. When we got to the gym we sat at the back. I thought I was going to see perfectly since there weren't any people in front of me. I was wrong. 2 minutes before the competition started a taller woman than me sat in front of me. I could handle that, just move to a side to see in the gap between her and another man. As usual I was wrong. On the first dance she wouldn't stop moving from side to side blocking my clear view to the stage at all time. Finally she stopped for most of the dances that followed. But in the final dance, the one I was so eager to see, she started moving again.
After that we all left to our homes and that was the end of Friday.
SATURDAY:
I woke up relatively early since my parents woke me up to tell me they were going to play golf in our club. I really was only half awake when they told they were going so I was still lying on my bed when i heard my mom say “There was an earthquake ...". At First I thought she had said the tower of Pisa just fell down. That was what really woke me up. When I entered my parent’s room I saw that CNN was broadcasting sights of Chile after the 8.8 level earthquake hit it. I kept on watching it until my parents left. That was probably at 11 30. I took a shower and got ready. I was going to do a math project that's due this Wednesday with Santiago. I got there around 4 pm and we started working. There was a lot of yelling while I was there. Every time I do a project with him we seem to end up arguing and yelling over stupid things. When we finished the project we started playing Tetris and we started to fight again because I was in a level above from him.
When my parents picked me up we went to get something to eat and that was it for the night.
SUNDAY:
Woke up early. Went to go visit my fathers part of the family. We ate at my grandparent house. Well now its actually my aunts house since both my grandparents of my fathers side passed away. We had lunch there. My aunt made chicken crepes. After eating and an hour or so more of visiting we left to go visit my mother's side of the family. When we got there I got into a big fight with my dad for not getting off the car when he told me. On his defense he did tell me about 5 times I just didn’t see the point in getting off of the car while he was parking. There I saw my grandfather and my cousins. After about 3 hours there we left back to Bogota. We got to my house at about 7:30 pm. When I thought I could lay down and relax I remembered I had an essay due on Monday for Pre- Ap Science. When I got to the computer I opened the articles I was going to use as research for the paper and a new document on word. After I did the header, I literally sat at the computer doing nothing at all because my mind had wondered off. That's my problem. I can do all my homework by like 5 pm tops if I could only focus. I just can’t leave my mind thinking of one thing. I mean like if I start an essay I could focus for about 20 minutes straight. Then I'd start wandering off or I start procrastinating. I'll get on Facebook or I'll start to talk to people who are on MSN and talk about random stuff. Then hours later I'll remember about the paper and finish it. Well that happened to me. So at 9 I start my paper... Again. I was getting really concentrated on my paper. Well on getting it started when I got a phone call. It was my older brother calling from New York. I have to brothers one is in New York (Gabriel)and the other one is in Boston (Juan). When I answered we started talking and about 5 minutes into the conversation I get an incoming call from, guess who?!?!?, my other brother Juan! What you have to know is that they almost NEVER call. I mean Gabriel calls more while Juan never calls. Seriously every time I'm on my mom says Camila send Juan a message telling him to call me.
But he does have the perfect excuse for not calling. His phone is F-ed up so it’s never on. No one knows if this is true since we aren't there to see the phone. So I told Gabriel to hold on while I told Juan to call later. When I told Juan he said OK I'll call later. I went to the other line, Gabriel's line. He wasn’t there. I called him back and he told me that I had hanged up on him. Well after me telling him that I had put him on hold like I said I was going to, he continued talking. He was telling me about his weekly schedule. He even told me what he was going to eat at lunch today and a recipe for a salad. While I was listening to him I was also playing Tetris so I really didn't catch half the things he told me. In the middle of the phone call my mom comes in. She dials Juan's phone and they talked. I thought she was going to leave after that but she didn't. She saw what I was playing and told “Awe Cami I really want to play Tetris! I haven't played in so long!” So as the very nice daughter that I am I gave her my computer. So now I was listening to my brother talk about his week and watching my mother so she wouldn't ruin my game. After like 20 minutes of talking to my brother I passed him to my mother. They talked for about 2 minutes and the phone call ended. It was already 9:30 by then and I began my essay. Then my friend Sophia started to talk to me on MSN. Fortunately she asked about the essay and that made me concentrate more on how to do it. I finally finished by 10:30. That was the end of Sunday and my weekend.
What a FUN weekend don't you think?
Answer: NO well at least Sunday wasn't fun at all.
