Done- ee Dare-Ko

Hi, today I'm going to write a Donie Darko review. First of all this movie is an art production that homage to 80s culture (that references other 80s films). When I saw this movie I can write that he is an smart and troubled dude, who is misunderstood by his enviroment (like school and his parents). It doesn't get clear if his schizophrenic episodes are the result of stop taking medication or is real life beacuse medication is just placebo. I don't think it is a great film, but maybe because I don't get it at all or just aspires to greatness. It is a very weird movie, just remember the evil-looking rabbit telling him about the world is going to end in like 28ish days. Then an aeroplane engina fall fall from the sky to Donnie's  house but the next day FAA tells his family no planes were in the area that night. Some of what I read on Internet was kind of just theological speculation. But it could be correct because there are a lot of blank places in the narrative.

So my review is: It is not a great film, and in fact is deeply flawed. The science fiction does not hold up. Everything in the movie can be product of his overheated brain. You can argue that some of what happens in Donnie Darko may be real or just fantasy, but the distinctions are not all that important because all these things intermingle freely, its like when you wake up sometimes and there is a moment when you are not quite sure what is real, or a dream o a memory.

Thanks for reading

Bye!

Proud Prout Prawd

Today I'm going to write about something I am proud of. It should be easy to recognize that/those things but not for me. I guess I'm proud of being right now studying in a university at Santiago since I was born on the northern city of Chile, my school was awful and almost all of my classmates of my school end up in local universitys with no effort. It was just normal to get up to 500 point on PSU. Luckily, we moved to Iquique and I entered to one of the "goods" schools of that city and there was like a force (or brainwash) to apply in just a few universities across the country like UTFSM, UCH, UdeC, etc. I first enter to UTFSM but, even though my first year was good, at the second one I realize I was not like my other classmates in a way of not being that motivated with the courses. So I just leave and came as soon as posible to my father's place. I was really confused about what to study after that but one person helped me to deal with that; my best friend's mom.who was a Geographer and told me about her career. However, I'm now very happy even though I really hate the difference between departments at Universidad de Chile (like FEN and FAU).
