Interesting Article

               Laurence Olivier in full makeup as Othello, opposite
               Frank Finlay's Iago in Stuart Burge's 1965 film version,
          based on their National Theatre production. 

This is a story that really caught my attention not only because the article is related to my field of work but also by the fact that it is amazing how even  now acts like this can happen today.

The article mainly talks how in  Germany until to this day  used for roles in plays which would correspond to race people used white actors with  black makeup.

Although in Germany is a sensitive issue the fact of the discriminationbut  in the article notes that even in this country these things are being done.

This also speaks of this practice as happening in other countries but over time has been exceded.

Personally I find it horrible that these practices are not accepted where people of color continue to be used.

I will not have the assurance that this practice have  been occurred  in Chile of use the  makeup as a form of discrimination but  as a classic way of characterization.

I hardly think that at least in this country exist  this kind of racial discrimination in the field of theater and arts but do not rule it out as a possibility that is given beyond.

Just unfortunately in this country and not only in this but in the world I think there is such a demand to be white or have certain characteristics to be considered for a role in a movie or a play.

It would be good to try in some way to extend this requirement, not only close to a kind of beauty but take more into account the actor's talent rather than his appearance

Friends

Well for me talk about this topic is a little bit difficult.
Say that one person is my best friend ...i don't think that only one person can be the best.
For me is a group of people who are been there when I needed  it most.
Some of these people are friends  that I met in my years inside the Carmela Carvajal high school and up to this day I still have contact with them.
I shared with them about six years of my life in which we learned to know each other and grow up together.
With this group I have great  memories during the lunch time listening to music, talking about interesting topics or spending an amazing week outing.

The other part of the friends are from the university.
With them I have a lot of anecdotes,some are funny moments and others stressful for deliveries of works in the university in which we all support.

In particular with this group and with a few of them we have the possibility to go out of the country and visit Europe with a University project.
Those were some good times traveled old streets and castles,knowing new people and places and learning about all the cultures in the countries that we visit.

Holidays

Algarrobo beach

Well the truth is that my family  are not very good for holidays

these are limited by the fact that my mom is always working and vacations are too short

But when we travel the place we visited since I was a child is the beach of Algarrobo.

If we dont go to Algarrobo we go to the central coast visiting Viña del Mar and Valparaiso

Special holiday was when we go to La Serena.

where we had a very nice family despite having to clean and cook every day.

In general I do not like to bathe in the sea

I'd rather swim in the pools, but feel the sound of the sea breeze and is very relaxing.

Elqui Valley

That with a good book or music as well as a large sunshade and a giant towel is what makes me happy.

In particular the best day for me was when we visited the Elqui Valley.

It is a very nice place in the middle of the arid north where one can feel comfortable 

Is a place steeped in mysticism.

If I had a choice where to go on vacation clearly I would love to go to the south.

After a tour of the college course I was amazed with places like Puerto Varas and Chiloe Pucón

In a week to enjoy the full reach is very difficult

For the near vacations I am gliding to visit valdivia have seen many photos of the city and it looks like to me a precious place to go on holidays

A Country I would like to visit: ENGLAND

Well the country that I want to visit is England.

I dont know why but since I was a child I started to know different things about England.
The movies and the books of James Bond,Peter Pan,Harry Potter or the music of the Beatles was the first   
approach  with  the British  culture.
Then the places, the architecture,the style and fashion make me love it even more.
  



One of my most important dreams is to go there.Walk in its 
streets and alleys and know in situ its history.
The place that I want to visit most  is Liverpool where beginning the Beatles History and go to the sherlock Holmes coffee.
It is in the same place that I would like to go and study in its university because I can study there the same career that I study in Chile,Stage Design.

The biggest problem is how expensive it is go to there and live there but I hope that I can do that soon in a couple of years and take maybe more courses about design,English literature, art and fashion.
