Imaginative Musik

Well, I feel like if there was a kind of mistery going on and it's like in the jungle because you can feeel like a jungle feeling due to the many drums. This kind of musik is also kind of modern so it o makes me feel like a New York descriptive life musik like in a place where the where many bars and discos in the 80' where there was like a time where Jazz was hear a lot in the large cities. It also makes me feel like active and it makes me coordinate or follow the rythmth.

This piece of musik makes me remember a scene in the Lord Of The Rings where there is a celebration and two little men start dancing on top of a table drinking a lot of beer in jars. This musik has a feeling of cowboys celebrating with banjos and drinking a lot of beer to celebrate the party. It also has a scence of kind of Scotish musik because there are many floutes and instruments from Scottland. This musik expresess tradition from a long away town from the cities in the middle of nowhere, where people is happy and has their way of making their stuff or celebrating their memorial days. This musik also makes me think that musik could bring you to another world with just the rythmth. This musik is also very happy and makes you the mood of them musik and your mode and it gives you reasons to not be in a bad mood and it shows that life is happy as a party.

This musik makes me feel like in China with African people singing with the Chinese rythmth and it makes me feel like that person was telling a tale to some children from the city of town from where the African is from. This musik express some kind of culture from the Africans and this show a mix of rythmth and the style of musik of different people.

TLP Reflection

TLP (Teen Life Project) is now over and English classes now become again normal. The Teen Life Project leaves me a great experience of working together with people from other countries in a high technology investigation and creation of a documentary and posts. This TLP was a great idea and I think that many schools around the world should do it because is an awesome way of learning, working, and the most important interacting with other people around the world with extremely different cultures as ours.

The part of making post was like a way of expressing yourself, the way you live, and the places where you live to other people around the world in this case the schools we where working with. These people look at this and have a kind of view of how you are in personality and the way you live in your country. Also the post we did where about our knowledge related to the topic we chose to do on the project.

The part of making a video on the topic you made was the most difficult but kind of fun part. Our class made several recording of video and put them all together in a file and send it to the other schools so the can do modifications to it and edit it and put music to it including voice recording and sound effects.

This project also was related with a lot of computer and high technology knowledge to make the documentary and the post come possible. The good part was that we got graded on doing this project that was cool but the bad thing is that is now over and we have now regular classes even though we will be still using our spaces in the web that are our blogs in blogger.

Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela, Druglord, Terrorist and kidnapper

On the t.v. news, about 3 years ago the only thing they mentioned was the capture of Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela after being accused of exporting by ship 150 kilograms of cocaine to the U.S.A in the year of 1990. I didn't take care of it much but my grandfather was really focused on that case eand he wanted for Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela to be captured and extorcionated to the U.S.A.
Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela was a 65 years old “narco” or drug lord who manifested his base on Cali, Colombia and from there he did his exportation of cocaine and other drugs. Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela was called in Spanish term "El Ajedrecista" and in English term "The Chess Man" or "The Chess Player". On the TV news, about 3 years ago the only thing they mentioned was the capture of Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela after being accused of exporting by ship 150 kilograms of cocaine to the U.S.A in the year of 1990. I didn't take care of it much but my grandfather was really focused on that case and he wanted for Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela to be captured and extortionated to the U.S.A.
Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela “The Chess Player" rise after the fall of another “narco” or drug lord that is worldwide known that was named Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria who was in the five most richest persons in the world. The post of Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria is doing it my friend Sebastian. Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela and his brother Miguel Rodriguez Orejuela where together selling drugs. Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela was the founder of the Cali Cartel with his brother Miguel Rodriguez Orejuela and José Santacruz Londoño. Their Cartel was know to be very dangerous and violent for the kidnapping and menaces they did as a plan to play with the authorities and tried t hide themselves using the people kidnapped as a distraction. I know this part of information by the news.
Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela was called the chess man because of his ability to be a step ahead of his rivals and the police. After all the bad things this brother made, they were captured and the freed and then captured again because the continued doing the same "Business".
What I learned from this story is that the path of being a drug lord, kidnapper, and terrorist (not so much but yes), will give you huge amounts of money but you wont ever again have a peaceful life because in your mind there will always be the memories of the people you killed not by only traficating drugs to delinquents but killing police and all that. Also is better to have an honest not violent job that may never give motives to other people to kill you or chase you.

What I think is that the people who take this path will never have a peaceful life because even though they take conscience and pull back, they will now forever that they had already done many bad things and that it was too late to pull back.
