My dream job

I've never been a person who thought about what I want for the future, when I was in high school I couldn't even think of a career to study, to this day I continue to live without worrying about what I want, I could say that I'm a person without dreams; But if I had to choose something it would be to be able to work as an illustrator because since I was a child I like to draw and I still do it in my spare time, although I don't know if I could dedicate to it as a single job because I'm still inexperienced, I still fail in many things and I have a lot to learn about anatomy, color theory, perspective, drawing backgrounds, among other things, currently I have been interested in entering the world of 2D models for streamers and I would like to start working on it, so I must improve the quality of my work. 

If in the future I would dedicate myself to it, I don't have many expectations about the salary and I wouldn't know how much to charge because I usually undervalue my work too much, when friends have commissioned my drawings I usually charge a few dollars or even give them for free, so one of my goals is to earn $1000 + usd per commission as some of the artists I follow. 

At the moment I don't studying a manor and I dont think I'll study one, I've already lost too many years of my life studying or for health reasons, if I get to study something after finishing my pedagogy career it will be through some courses that will help me to improve my drawing skills.

A Country I´d like to visit

 

Since I was a kid I was interested in japanese animation, when I grew up, I became interested in their culture as well; religion, gastronomy, traditions and the contrast between the modernity and traditional have been the reasons why Japan has become one of the places I dream to visit.

Japan is a very polite and respectful, has a great gastronomic menu, being the sweets the ones that catch my attention the most, despite being a country at the forefront of technology, it preserves their cultural roots and traditions very well, I love how over the years the traditional arts have been maintained and how in some localities the architecture of ancient Japan has been preserved from large gardens to imperial palaces.

One of the things I would like to do in Japan is going to Kyoto and visit some temples that are located there, especially the Fushimi Inari Shrine and climb to the top of Mount Inari through ithe famous path full of torii gates, and also go to a summer festival and attend a rakugo performance.

Although Japan is a country that I like somuch, I wouldn't live or study there, life is very fast-paced and strict, school pressure is something that scares me a lot and for mental health issues I don't think I would be able to perform well, life is very expensive too.

The best concert ever

 

The best concert I've ever been to was in 2013 when I finally was able to see my favorite band.I still remember how I insisted to my parents for permission to let me go see them when was announced they would come to Chile, I promised to get good grades at school, behave myself, help with household chores and thousand more things to go to the concert.

I attended to see a group called The Gazette, it’s a Japanese rock band, it was formed in 2002 prevailing to this day, being one of the most popular band with the longest trajectory within the genre. At first, they were characterized by their extravagant aesthetics and songs that went against the system, over the years they have been innovating their musical and visual style, having a cleaner sound and a more mature presentation that was reflected in they outfits and song lyrics based on cruder and/or everyday experiences that society faces.

The concert was on September 8, 2013 and was held at the caupolican theatre, that day my father and I traveled very early to get a good place in entrance line, sadly when I arrived, a lot of people were waiting before me. There were many hours of waiting under the heat typical of September, while anxiety and emotion invaded me, when they finally let us into the theatre I was very happy because I was just steps away from seeing my favorite artists.

The atmosphere inside was generally calm, lots of people was talking while we waited for the concert to start, I could hear the murmur and also the occasional yell from a fan; When the concert start, everything changed abruptly, excitement filled the place, many people began to shout, some jumped with emotion, however, I was calm enjoying the music and singing in a low voice some of the songs that I liked the most.

I really enjoyed the show, it was better than I expected, I left the place with a lot of positive energy and  that night Iwent to my home so happy, hoping to repeat that exciting experience in the future. That concert is one of my precious memories, I still keep my ticket like a treasure... When I remember that day a smile appears in my face because is the best day 've ever had.
