Anime!

So recently I have been watching an anime show that I have been following for quite some time now called Naruto. It is quite incredible although I have to watch it by reading the English subtitles since I don’t speak Japanese; but that is just a minor negative feature to watching the show. It is full of suspense and has a detailed well-structured story line that can affect the viewer greatly at times, which is probably why even those who read the subtitles at times get obsessed; and as much as I hate to admit it I feel that I am obsessed with the show, its naturally addicting.

Now, I don’t know if lots of people have seen the show but it has rapidly expanded its viewer’s rates and is growing to a global level, they have already created an English dubbed version! However, the dubbed versions always come out much later and I like to stay updated with the show. Besides hearing the original voices to any show or movie greatly changes the rate of how you interoperate the show, even if they are in another language. Overall, if you have not seen Naruto or heard of it I recommend it to you, and although you may not like it depending on your taste it has definitively addicted me to a certain point that at times embarrasses me.

Winter Break

We have some back from winter vacation of two weeks now and I was planning to update you on my trip. For my vacation I went to Brazil, more specifically Rio and Iguaçu Falls, unfortunately Rio was rainy the whole time we were there, cloudy skies and beaches just don’t match up to well don’t you think? However, the weather in Iguacu Falls made up all the bad days in Rio, clear skies and a blazing sun ALL day long. This trip was my first ever to a country which spoke a language I did not making it a different experience. It was different to be in a place where you could not communicate, using your hands and facial expressions to simply ask for an empanada at a bakery; to top it all off my dad was convinced he could communicate so he read out loud every portuguese sign we saw simply to embarrass my sister and I.

Iguacu Falls were amazing! Never had I seen so many waterfalls in one place, the vegetation and scenery of the entire area was beautiful indeed. We decided to go under the water falls… twice; once in the Brazilian side and once on the Argentinean (I Honestly Preferred the Brazilian Better). On our flight back home I had the luck of being sick, and trust me it is the most terrible feeling in the world to be on a plane for 6 hours with a plugged nose and terrible stomach ache. Overall, the one con to the trip in my opinion was that retched flight to Caracas.
