3.- A Festival, Exhibition, Concert or Show You Saw

     Before this year, i had never been to a concert, but since march, i have attended concerts and live shows. Today i'm going to write about the experience Lollapalooza 2023, for this event I saved a lot of money and bought my tickets months in advance without knowing which artists were coming. My girlfriend and I decided to buy tickets, hoping that our favorite artists would come.

When the lineup was released, we were pleasantly surprised because, as there where several artists that we both liked, like a Billie Eillish, Tame Impala, Rosalia, Aurora, chilean urban artists like Young Cister and Pailita, and my favorite band, The 1975. In adittion to going to see these artists we wanted to discover new music.

Days before the festival, the band Blink-182 announced that they would not be able to perform and Twenty One Pilots joined as a replacement, we were very excited about this news because this is my girfliend's favorite band and I like it a lot too.

The festival was held on March 17, 18 and 19 on this year in Parque Cerrillos, and all the three days were extremely hot.

The first day we left classes at the university early to get to the park. This day we saw the shows of Pailita, Conociendo Rusia and Usted Señalemelo (two good argentine bands), Mora (puerto rican urban singer), Conan Gray, Lil Nas X and Billie Eillish. In the second day we saw the shows of Young Cister, Aurora, Rosalia (in the front row) and a bit of Cigarettes After Sex and Drake.

The last day we arrived very early and spent the whole day in the front row of the stage where Wallows, The 1975 and Twenty One Pilots were performing. We saw many people fainting from the heat while we were holding our hunger and the urge to go to the bathroom, but it was worth every second as i got to see my favorite band and i hope to see them again if they come back to Chile.

2.- An Interesting Trip

Imagen
Today i´m going to write about the first travel that i realized to other country. In April of this year i traveled to Buenos Aires, Argentina, with my girlfriend and her family. This trip was my second and third time traveling by plane, the first time was to Antofagasta, in the north of Chile, when i was 10 years old, but i don´t remember much about the travel. The others travels that i have made been by car to the some places of the south like Villarrica, Pucón, Valdivia, and bus to La Serena and Alhué. In this time, the trip was my first experience abroad. My girlfriend planned an itinerary of different places to visit and eat in Buenos Aires. The first day (saturday) we boarded the plane at 7:30 am and arrived in Argentina at 9 am, we realized the check in in the hotel and went to walk in Corrientes Avenue (like the Fito Paez song -11 y 6-). The first tourist place that we visited was the Ateneo Library, a beautiful library that previously was a theater, then we continued touring to...

7. A Job

Imagen
 In my life, i had 3 different jobs. My first experience was being a Shopper at Jumbo supermarket in La Florida in 2021, in this job I had to pick orders that people made online by an app, this job was funny when I pick the products, but stressful when I packed them in. Another jobs that I had was a leafleter and staff at Multiverse, a entertaiment enterprise that produces geek events. These jobs was a funny experience because the events was retro-pop culture and gaming themed. When i was 14 years old, I started playing guitar and my frustrated dream or job that I would like to do is being a guitarist. I have a acoustic and electric guitar (also a keyboard), and in my free times I practice this instruments, also I'm always listening to music, so always imagine myself playing guitar at concerts.  Some of the qualities that I need to be a good guitarist is a better coordination in fingers and patience to learn about the instrument, also I have to do tenacious in the practice. I ...

8. Language

Imagen
According to my family, since I was little I started to speak basic English words like colors and numbers, because I watched cartoons in this language, so when I entered kindergarten, I already had a slight knowledge. In my school English was taught from the moment you entered until you left, so I always had a close relationship with the language.  I consider it a complex language, in school I had a hard time with the verb "to be" and its variants, so I think I understand and read it better than I can speak and pronounce it. My girlfriend passed on to me the habit of watching movies and series with subtitles to better understand the language, I have seen long series like The Office in American English and Ted Lasso in British English, when we go to the cinema, we prefer to see the movies in the original language, which a couple of years ago I disliked. This semester I have enjoyed the English course and Professor Simon's activities, since it allows free dialogue on everyd...
