Teacher's Day: The Sequel

                     May 15th, Teacher's Day in both Mexico and South Korea. Although I'd written about this before, I'm giving myself the pleasure of writing about it again, because every year you get new experiences. Some you will love, others you will hate, but trust me, a good teacher will always work hard to get you forward. They have a lot to go through, like our inevitable stupidity. 

-Jimmy, why are you looking down at your crotch and smiling? 

                     Now, this year I've learned many things, but aside from the academics, teachers have shown me what hard work can get you. We should always have the utmost respect for any professor, because they're here to build our character, which will guide us through thick. 

They also show style, like professor badass.

                     If you have any teacher you know and love, give her some chocolates, a flower, I don't know, anything you want, something that will show them how much you appreciate them, because let's face it, if it weren't for teachers, most of us would be on the streets, shouting about, stealing candy from babies with smart parents. So yeah, thank you guys for everything you've taught me. 

School is for chumps! Leave it and someday you'll be like me!

                    Matter of fact, my mom's a teacher, and damn it if it isn't hard work. Trust me, it's not something that simply involves grading. It also means being somebody to be there for them, because if a kid can't rely on his/her parents, they go to their teachers or closest friends. Also, my mom's always giving tutoring in the afternoon, she has book clubs, so, yeah, it's a full time job. Seriously, happy teacher's day to each and every master out there. 

Mother's Day (200th Post!)

                     So, today's a very special day, for all those women who gave us births, taught us to be who we are, kept pushing us to school, and did everything they could to make us feel special. Every single day, every day, these women work to help us move ahead in life, educating us, feeding us, giving us shelter, and loving us with all their hearts (that's cheesy, but it's Mother's Day). 

                    I still remember how my mother used to take me everywhere, school, classes, out with friends, and I can't thank her enough for everything that she's done for me. I can let her know I love her, though, and that's what this blogpost is about. Thank you, Mom, for all that you've given me, I know I can't pay it back, but I'll be damned if I don't raise my kids like you raised me. 

                     Now, for the rest of you, go, give your mother's a few big hugs, fill them with chocolates, give them flowers, sing them a song, whatever, it might be late but you could still pull it off tomorrow. Also, this is my blog's 200th post, so, for all of you that have read it all, congratufuckinglations, and I sure as hell won't stop on 200. 

LIMBO

CONTAINS SPOILERS

                        For those of you that don't know, LIMBO is a side-scroller game with a minimalistic noir design and a simple controller, being Left, Right, Jump, Down, and an Action button. Its description doesn't help you interpret it much. It simply says: "Uncertain of his sister's fate, a boy enters Limbo". The game's deaths are pretty gruesome, and in fact, its gameplay is called by some "trial and death". 

                        So, basically, you start on a forest on the edge of hell. You go through the forest, and you have to run from a giant spider, go through puzzles, and avoid a group of a few humans who are trying to kill you. You can find corpses, which sometimes are necessary to go through a puzzle. At one point, there's a girl standing there, who disappears. 

                        After the forest with its creatures of doom, you go through an abandoned city. There's no tribes and shit there, but there's more hazards. After that, you go through a sort of factory, where there's more things to activate. That's the point where the game gets really hard, but also pretty lonely. Also, the noises in the game make you feel even worse; it's eery. When you finish, you go flying through glass and land in the forest again, where you wake up like in the beginning of the game. Then, you see a girl kneeling down. The game suddenly ends there. 

                         What can the game mean? There's a lot of interpretations. Some say that the Limbo represents Nature and City, showing the evils of the two. Some think that the boy is looking for his sister to climb into heaven. Others think he's trapped there, doomed to become insane like the other humans, who have possibly become insane because of the horrors in Limbo. 

                          What I believe is the deal with the game is that the boy was really dead the whole time. To rest, though, he needed to find his sister. He had to go through everything in Limbo to finally get to the girl. In the end, he wakes up again, and sees the girl. I believe that he would go through it again, and again, being in a sort of hell of his own, doomed to fight off horrors for eternity. Whatever interpretation you have, you'll love the game and you'll find that there's really nothing else like it. It's a real piece of art. 

International Book Day

                         Today's a beautiful day. The International Book Day. I want to dedicate this blogpost to my favorite books, as they have completely impacted my life, and many others' lives. They're not going to be in any order, so ther can be grotesque changes from book to book. 

The Cat In The Hat

                 This is a good starter. It's a simple book, albeit fun. It shows you the wonders of rhyming, and it's a great book for kids. A new classic, if you think about it. The staple of Dr. Suess, the book's been an incentive for many to read and write. 

Yeah, I just went there. 

The Giving Tree

                 Another children's book. This other classic, by Shel Silverstiein, is a true example of a very, very short story. This book is one of the most important for me because it's an excellent metaphor for a caring, nurturing mother. They give, and give, and are able to give until they have naught to give, but they will love you, even if your departing ass doesn't take them into consideration. The book can bring even the most hardened drama veterans to cry (if they have a conscience). 

I uh... I have something in my eye.

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

                Now, the fact that this was made a movie (which was actually pretty good), shouldn't make you judge this book if you didn't like it. It's one of the best books I've ever read. The story of how a boy's life is completely changed after his father's death in 9/11. It's full of raw emotion from a kid with mental problems, so yeah, it's an interesting mix. 

Inferno

                  Dante's inferno is on a whole different level. I'm not including the rest of the Divine Comedy, because I feel that you can learn more from Inferno. One of the things is that a man ends up living the life he chooses. Every man ends up facing his sins. That, my friends, is responsibility. Also, the inferno is awesome. 

I'd post the book but this looks more badass.

Romeo and Juliet

                  This masterpiece by William Shakespeare is possibly the best play I've ever read. It has everything. Two rival families, swordfighting, religion, love, sex, and roofies. There's uh... not much more I can say, so, yeah. Read it, bitches. 

Harry Potter Series

                  Any hipster-ass punk who wants to say that this series sucks can blow me. Why? Because, even though it's not the most sophisticated of books, Harry Potter has something that no other book has ever done. It broke records. It created another universe, for my generation, those of us who as kids, loved it when we started reading it, and as teenagers, cried when it all finished, because you can't stress enough how much we love it. 

The Old Man And The Sea

                 This book by Ernest Hemingway is one of my favorites, because it shows how the will of a man can mean his survival or death. His strength to overcome his troubles is something that impressed me when I read the book, and it teached me a lesson: Only the quitters stay behind. 

This dude can gut a shark with his broken hip.

                  There's maybe a hundred books I could write about, but if you're willing to participate, then write a book and why you think it's awesome in the comments section. So, grab a book, read it, expand your knowledge, trust me, it makes your life better.
