Algunos dicen que el aburrimiento es el cansancio causado por disgustos o molestias. Otros, que es no querer hacer nada mientras lo estás haciendo. Los demás, prefieren sin más evitar el tema. Pues bien, esto es para demostrar a todas aquellas personas que aburrirse no es obligatorio y menos imprescindible. Este blog es el espejo de cuatro amigas diferentes pero unidas por las ganas de divertirse, la moda y una preciosa tortuga: QuickPatrickJames.




El verano. ¿Qué puedo decir de él? La mejor época del año, la que siempre andamos esperando. ¿Porque? Porque representa la libertad, somos libres de hacer lo que queramos, no hay estudios, no hay profesores, hay menos obligaciones.
El sol. La playa. El mar. Los amigos. La diversión. La música. La fiesta.
Nos despreocupamos de aquellas cosas que rondaban nuestras cabeza durante todo el invierno...¡Y nos dejamos llevar!¿Qué mejor para representar esta época del año que los anuncios que Estrella Damm nos propone cada año? Sencillamente me encantan; expresan el verano perfecto, el verano increible. Este año, un grupo de amigos se van de viaje a un lugar tipo Formentera o Mallorca en velero. Bajo la cancion "Applejack" de The triangles, dos de ellos, un chico y una chica no se dan cuenta de que están hechos el uno para el otro hasta el final. "A veces lo que buscas está tan cerca, que cuesta verlo". Y es una gran verdad. ¿Cuantas veces andamos buscando algo y estamos tan cegados por nuestra meta que nos olvidamos de ver lo que está a nuestro alrededor? Nos olvidamos de ver lo que realmente importa, de lo que nos es mas cercano, de lo que nos es más importante.


















Creo que ahora que ya nos conocemos un poco mejor, es hora de comenzar a contaros esos momentos tan buenos que hemos compartido las 4 este año. Empezamos con... ¡Cibeles Fashion Week! Fue una pasada de día dedicado por completo a nosotras... Descubrimos uno de los eventos mas importantes, todos los stands... Era genial; clases en L'Oréal, visitas por los diferentes puestos de los creadores, etc. Eso si, ¡no os recomiendo que probéis todo lo que os den! Cuando salimos teníamos mil revistas e íbamos como muñecas de porcelana! Y sino, comprobarlo vosotros mismos...Do you know number 4 is a unlucky number in some cultures? Well, it is mostly in asian countries which know a lot about.
Now that you've learnt a bit about these amazing young ladies i shall introduce myself
I am the last addition to the group and as i already told you I know a lot about asian cultures mostly China, Japan and South Korea where I've had the pleasure to live in.
I came to a new school on november of last year, it was a crappy day one of those days where you ask yourself why the hell you have to go outside specially early in the morning when the sun hasn't even come up but for some illogical reason you have to wake up !
Anyway, not only was the weather crappy, my hair a mess, my first day but I was late...
You know how when you're watching a movie and the new girl comes in late awkwardly with a teacher saying "welcome you're new classmate, her name is..." in front of everyone with whom you're going to spend the rest of the year? Well, I was that new girl...
But let's start from the beginning!
Where does she come from? Who is she?
Well, before arriving here in my beloved country I used to South Korea and before that Japan and before blablabla...
Honestly, if you ask me where I'm from it would be really hard for me to answer that question since I feel like I am citizen of the world!
In Japan and South Korea I learnt to appreciate people who have nothing to do with me, who are completely different, who have a culture as different from mine as it can get and mostly to respect others.
Everything I'm telling you know sounds pretty cliche but I'm not going to tell you things like how much rice do they eat in a day, how many chinese are born in a year... I am on the other hand going to tell you the way they behave, their way of living or the culture of these two places in the world.
Japan, for personal reasons was the best period of my life.
In 4 years, I got the experience of a lifetime and I had the chance to really get to know japanese people.
At first it's hard to understand them, they're so respectful, so quiet, they keep to themselves mostly and they would give you directions if you ask them and accompany you even if they have absolutely no idea where the place is!
You would think that's stupid, so did I... coming from Spain where people are so warm, so sociable yet not so polite all the time, and where everyone talks it's definitely a cultural shock.
Despite all, I was able to learn from them and make the most of those 4 years.
South Korea was good too, but I must admit, I missed Tokyo.
Koreans are not so clean, not so polite and not so respectful anyway but they were fun!
I absolutely did not learn any Korean other than giving directions to the taxi driver since I only stayed there a year, but despite it all whenever I go back it feels like home.
Home is Madrid now and somehow these folks have helped during the process so the only thing left to say to them is...
THANKS
N.
