An expert in my field: Franz Kafka

Well, I don't really know any website related to my career so I'm going to write about one of my favorite authors, Franz Kafka.

Franz Kafka was a czechoslovakian writer born in Prague, Austro-Hungarian Empire, on July 3rd, 1883.
He was born in a german-speaking jewish family and had two little brothers that died very young, and three sisters that were taken by nazis and died during Holocaust of World War II.
He became a lawyer on 1906 and was hired in an italian insurance company where he was deeply unhappy and affected by the hard work schedule. He died because of laryngeal tuberculosis on June 3rd, 1924.
Kakfa is an important and influential writer nowadays, being one of the most influential authors of 20th century. He wrote books like "The Metamorphosis", "The Trial" and "The Castle", all of them filled with psychological breakdown themes.

He is one of my favorite writer because of this writing style. I fell in love with "The Metamorphosis" when I firstly read it for Kakfa's ability to put emotions of being and feeling alone, to feel so insignificant (like a bug) for the rest of the world, even your family. I admire his works, maybe because I like depresive books haha.
Regards!

My Favorite Song

      Well, the topic of this week was the favorite song, so let's go :)

     As anyone I think, I have a lot of favorite songs, but definitely when I saw that I would write about       only one, the weirdest choice came to my mind instantly.

    The song is called "Romance of lights and shadows" (Hikari to Kagen no Roman) by the female          japanese singer and composer Utoku Keiko and it was her ninth single released on May 14th, 1997.

    This song was used as the third ending theme of the series "Detective Conan" and it talks about a           woman who is in love but had a lot of problems with that person, however, she yearns for him and         wishes to have a happy ending instead of the bad one, recollecting only the good things and forgetting    all the problems.

    But this song is special for me not for the lyrics, but for another reason. Being so far away from my   family and my friends makes me a little sad frecuently and this song is like a remedy. When I was a child I used to watch Detective Conan with my older brother almost every day, and this particular is the only song I remember quite well from the show, and when I listen to it, I feel like a 5-year-old again, with my brother and watching the TV next to the kitchen. It gives me warmth and comfort because it´s like I remember all the past things and good memories when life was all about to play all day and watch anime with my brother.

    Have a good day! 

            

A photograph I like

   

 

This is one of the photos I treasure the most :3 

It was taken on my last days of school and I'm here with my special humanist group of school when we were having a meal and it was really memorable and emotional for being the last days.

I don´t remember quite well who was the one that took it but certainly was of my other classmates.

We were 18 in the group of humanists in my grade. In these photo we made hamburgers and had a very good time with our teacher of language, the best teacher of the whole world to me! He was the best with us and we spent the two happy years with him, besides I learned a lot from him and laughed a lot too.

I like this photo because it reminds of the good times in school, now that I'm so far away from home, this gives me strenght and happiness when I'm down, specially when all of them stayed in Puerto Montt and I came alone to here. I miss all of them very much, school was one of the best things ever and I'll never forget them.

Have all a very good day! Bye :)
