My favourite movies

I'm a huge enthusiastic of movies and cinematographic world and  most of the times I have some free time I watch some movie. I like huge productions as much as indie movies, but I really like films that make you think about the plot and about the characters themselves, that talk about feelings and life and the human behaviour. If the film is full of topics or shows situations or reactions non realistic (those romantic comedies where everybody has a happy ending and everything is fine, for example) then I probably won't like the film.
Here I let you a list of my top 10 films and their trailers:

Blogging: Tumblr

As I guess some of you may be enjoying blogging I decided to share another way of blogging, different from blogspot and wordpress: Tumblr. Tumblr is a platform designed as a social network and based of sharing images, videos, gifs and short quotes. The way it works is very easy: you create your tumblr, follow as many blogs as you want (there's not a limit) and you reblog post they publish that you like, creating a visual diary in your blog. Also, you can upload the pictures you want to. It may seem a little bit boring, but it's very entertaining and an easy way to keep in contact with the aesthetic you like or learn about new artists or similars. You will enjoy it if you want a different type of blogging and you like artistic things.

Problem/Solution

In a society where it's very easy to have access to drugs it is very frequent to have people addicted to these substances. However, this is a problem we should not take as a joke, because it could affect any of us or of our close ones. In fact, we should fight against it and try to find a solution to it.

Rehab clinics are a solution for those who are already drugs addicts and want to stop doing them. By being hospitalized here and spending a brief period of time here, more or less depending of the level of addiction, a person can be helped to stop doing drugs.

The problem with this is that they are expensive, so not many people can't afford them as many drugs addicts have social issues and several problems. Also, sometimes when people receive the discharge and they go walk to their homes they start doing drugs again.

Another solution is to increase not only the price of drugs but also the prison sentence of those who traffic with them to gain money. There should be more police controls in our airports, borders and ports and create an effective law to warn people of the consecuencies of their acts if they decide to traffic with drugs.

Video: Catcall video goes viral, CNN discusses it

Last week I posted a video in which a girl recorded herself walking 10 hours in NY and showing how many men catcalled her (catcall someone is when a guy talks in a seductive way to a girl for the purpose of getting attention). A few days ago, the CNN discussed it in a live show with a girl activist and the autor of a book about men, representing each sex. While the girl tries to explain that women don't like being catcalled by strangers and don't want to listen to these things, the man argues that what a woman wants the most is to being called beautiful and that we should stop when someone tell us something in the streets and fight them. Then, the girl says that doing this is dangerous as there are women who are killed for this, and the man just says "then carry a gun!" like fighting with violence is the best solution. Again, another example of why our society doesn't progress as it should.

Pro/Con

I'm pro hommosexual marriage because:
1. equality shouldn't be a privilege.
2. everyone must have the right to marry whoever they want, independently of their gender.
3. it's time we accept existence of diversity in our society.

Práctica 1: Something you really like but most people don't like at all

A lot of people enjoy staying in bed and waking up late, but I prefer getting up early and starting my day. If I wake up late, I feel very lazy and after that, I usually don't do anything. If I wake up early, I can organize my time better and I do a lot of things: homework, the housework, etc. This way, I feel productive and I am in a good mood for the rest of the day: Also, I am really focused, I will do everything during the morning, so I will have a relaxed afternoon watching some film or going out with friends. Of course, I understand that some people like to spend their time in bed, but I have always been a morning person and I think I will be for the rest of my life.

Video: 10 Hours of Walking in NYC as a Woman

I wanted to share this video because as you know I think equality is very important and I'm very aware about feminism. In this video, a girl records herself while walking in NYC for 10 hours, wearing comfortable and sporty clothes. We can watch how lots of boys try to talk to her or give her their telephone numbers, tell her she is sexy and one even walks by her side several minutes. After watching the video, I read some of the comments people had written about it. Most of them were people saying that this girl (and us girls in general) should take as a compliment that people tell us that we are pretty and sexy, that if we want respect we should dress appropiately 'the more you cover, the more you are respected' and that we should be nice and smile to those strangers that decide to 'compliment' us. The thing I wish these people understood is that nor do I need or want some stranger to tell me I'm pretty, or sexy or what they want to do to me. I want them to shut their opinion and treat me and everyone with the respect that we deserve. Every time I'm walking and some stranger tells me something about my appearance I feel like a piece of meal, where is the respect there? And of course, I wish young boys were more conscious about this and young girls knew that men's opinions don't define us, we define ourselves.
