It is better to read the book than to see the film version of the book?

When a book is succesful, hollywood put it's eyes on it. The adaptation is the hardest process. decide what can be cut and what have to be shown in just 120 minutes. These are the most hardest decision for the producer and writer. It can determinate the success or failure of the film.

Not all the best sellers that have been converted in movies are succesful. The cast and acting is important too.
If you have read the book and can't feel connected with the stars in the film it's a very negative aspect.

Read the book will always be better. Owing to the use of our imagination. It let us be creative and build the story and the caracters with the description that the author is giving to us. People who read are more clever and intelligent.

On the other side movies can show you the images. Nowadays with the gramatically increase of the technology the special efects cooperate to the construction of  beautifuls masterpieces.

The Diary of Briget Jones, Pride & Perjuice, Harry Potter, Twilight, The Lord of the Ring, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, are some of the movies that have swept in the cinemas, furthermore the experts have given excelent critics for these pieces.

What does the media affect public image of the human body?

We are in a difficult time specially for women. The marketing use women in bikinies to sell everything. There are specifics requirements for models to be succesful in the industry. Actresses and singers are forced to follow the parameters that the media has imposed like steps to build a succesful career in the entretainment business.

Now talent is not a discussion on the table. It is a plus if the artist or candidate to start a career has it. But is not required.  What really matters is if you are willing to get plastic surgery, work out, and be like a puppet, because the people that are in the top of the agencies and record companies are going to decide every single detail of your life.

Artist like Madonna in the 80's cautivaded the people owing to her unique way of express herself. But years later she confessed that she suffered bulimia and anorexy. These eating disorders have been for decades very popular in the entrateinment bussines. Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Christina Ricci, Kelly Osbourne, Jessica Alba, Drew Barrymore, Christina Aguilera, Lady Gaga and Kelly Clarkson are some of the famous that have openly spoken about how to deal and confront this demon.

Some people are more susceptible than others. for the susceptible kind is easier to feel vulnerable and pushed to follow the fake imposed beauty point of view for a small group of people.

Teenagers are easier to believe all what they watch and see thorugh the media. Furthermore This certain ages move the youth to make everything to be accepted and fix in a group. They have been bombared with all the pop culture life style. Media tells you how you have to look and act if you want to be consider cool.

Education is having an important role against this public problem. People have to look more in the inside than in the outside and accept that everyone is different in a beautiful way. It is in the mix and particular details that live is enriched and interesting. Lady Gaga was right "I'm beautiful in my way cause God made not mistake, I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way"

What are the disadvantages that come with being born in the last 25 years? How does society differ from when your parents were born?

The Contemporary Era

 

 

The world has been transformed with the technlogy. Children in this age are familiar to electronic gadgets. It seems that barbies and kens have been replaced for Ipads, Playstations and Xboxs.

 

Nowadays, Kids are raised with the exposure of the new technology. The internet has played an important role here.

 

As a result of the facilities that came up with the internet, we can be connected with the whole world with just a click. The free access to different tipe of information has opened the world to the globalization of communication.

 

But not always was like this. My grandma tells stories about how letters were used to be send. First just the postman riding his bicycle used to go door by door throwing correspondence. Furthermore, if the person needed to send a letter to another city or contry, the documents had to be send it by bus or ship. It took months and in some cases years for the other person to receive the shipping. Opposite that how is in this time, documents can be scan and send it by electronic mail.

The television, the phone, the Radio and The Airplane have been invetions which have been changed and impacted everyone's life.

Not only the revolution of technology that we are living now has come up with great things, but also it has brought its disadvantages. We live in the time that all is on the palm of our hands. As easiest you get what you want as easiest you forget it and throw it away.

Aditionally, The same is happened with the information. With The social media on the table. Media have been pushed to bring as much news as they can. Sometimes even without confirme if what they are announced is real truth. Before Media had to investigate deeply to proceed with the new. Now in news conferences the reporters constantly are making tweets that after has to be corrected because another question the statements expressed seemed to be different.

The technology has made lazy people in all their roles. Students believe all that is written in wikipedia. When I was in the school books where the bible of knowledge, not now.  Workers try to resolve problems trough the net even without ask information to the experimented people or spend more time doing research.

The way of communication would not be the same anymore. I find annoying when in a group of people there is not verbal interaction, just text message. Technology has despersonalized the human race.

 

 

 

 



Story of the reletation between 2 people

Once upon a time in  the old London village of Noak Hill the most lovely story in the world happened. It was Katie James' story.

She was a lonely 60 year old woman used to live in a big black house with her cat called Susy.

Katie broke down in 1995. When she came down with diabetes she decided to dedicate her life to looking for  the simple things that could make her happy.

That is why she came up with the brilliant idea of taking a trip every month.

She took up her time choosing the places she had always dreamed to visit.

The first city was Rome. Katie was sitting in the plane reading the guide about Rome when suddenly an old woman who was sitting next to her asked: "Are you with the elderly club tour?"
Katie didn't have any idea what the woman was talking about.  She insisted: "I'm the president of the elderly club tour. We are people who enjoy traveling together. My name is Lisa".

That was the beginning of a friendship that would last forever. In Rome Katie joined the elderly club and met kind and funny people like Lisa. They visited the Vatican together and  made a wish in the Trevi Fountain.

Lisa was a relative of Queen Isabel. She gave some secrets away about the Royalty, like how Camila was the nightmare of Lady D. Katie enjoyed all the gossip and the glamour of her friend. She used to invite her every Friday for a cup of tea. Lisa lived in a big mansion alone. They shared experiences and became sisters for live.

Lisa passed away from a heart attack. Katie felt alone and very depresed when she received a call. It was from Lisa's lawyer. He announced to her that she came into several properties and a large amount of money that Lisa left her.

So at the end Katie moved out to a mansion in London and spent the rest of her life there.

In what ways has life changed for you in the last few years?

 

My life has changed signifcantly. When I was studying Journalism and Comunications, I had the oportunity to work in a famous radio station in my country. It was an enriching experience that helped me make connections and learn a lot in the radio field.

 

After that I had my graduation of Journalism and then I did a Master's program in marketing managment, which was pretty useful for my career.

 

Through all these years I have could be more independent. Two years ago I went to Barcelona - Spain and studied another master's program in Journalism, it have been the best experience in my live. I decided to quit my job and go to Europe for 1 year and  half. I won't never regreat it.

The best friends and the best moments that I have been lived in my live, have been the ones in Europe.

 

Consequently, last year when I finished my studies in Spain, I realiced that I needed to improve my english if I wanted to have a succesful career as a Journalist. So I decided to come to New York, because that have been my dream since I was a child.

 

Nowadays, I'm working hard to get an intership in the city. It is hard to be far from my family, but all the sacrifices makes you stronger. At the end I know I will pick up the result of my effort.
