Fushigina deai....

The first term we wrote about this topic…in that opportunity I chosen like my favorite movie: “Kikujiro”, an oriental movie about a boy, called Masao, who discover that his mom have other family now. How our teacher read about it, I`ll choose other. Mmmm….I`m not sure if this is my favorite one, but I love it so much!! Its name is: “Tonari no Totoro”!!
“Tonari no Totoro” (that means: My Neighbor Totoro) is an oriental movie too, but this is a cartoon. It was directed by Hayao Miyazaki in the same year that I borned: 1988 J
This is the story about a rural Japanese family from the middle of the past century, the father with his two daughters. This family arrived to live in a big and very old house. This house is located near to the forest…
As the house was closed during a long time, and it`s old…the house was so dirty!! So, when the little girl, Mei Kusakabe, opened the door…she saw a lot of “little dust`s rabbits”. It was the first estrange situations for the girls…soon, they will live a fantastic adventure surrounded of magic creatures.
One day, Mei was picking seeds near of the house when she saw an estrange “animal”, it run and Mei followed it…Something similar to the Alicia`s story, because this “animal” entered to the forest, specifically to the roots of a big tree: the door of a magic place where lived Totoro: the spirit of the forest. Satsuki, the big sister, was so worried because her sister was disappeared and their father was working. Looking for Mei, Satsuki knew to Totoro, and all together fly in the sky of the night!! In other opportunity Mei disappeared again because his father received a new about her mom from the hospital…so, she had fear and run desperate and alone. Fortunately, a bus-cat helped to Satsuki to find to Mei and want to the hospital and saw that their mother was getting better!!!
Finally, the two sisters come back to the forest flying in the bus-cat and planted the present`s Totoro: magic seeds!!
I like this movie because its plot is so simple…but show a fantastic world, that is, the children´s reality…replete of fantasy, surprises and spontaneous happiness. While I`m more old I love it more and moreJ

During the first term I did a lot of things, but not the all thing I wanted to do….like everybody!! I took six subjects in the university, I wanted to take “Latin I”, in fact, I went to some class, but my psychological subject started to demand me more time…so, I had to leave it. I “worked” with a psychologist and a partner in a school in the program “Abilities for the life”, it is a very bad program, but the experience with little children was wonderful!! Generally, the first term was boring, but this is begging considerably better!! J Respect to my other activities…in the ballet there are a lot of new people, but not of them are good for the dance, however they have posture. After the earthquake, with the ballet, I went to Alhué, a little town of this region, the people were reconstructing their houses, and we went to there to sing and dance house by house!!! And Them we did a performance in front of the municipality.
The few time didn`t permit me assist to the chorus. Something so important that happened the first term was that the house where I lived all my childhood was sold L that`s mean that I`ll never be in it again, I lost the house, the grapes, the big garden…all my memories of that time…
The important is that this term is being very good!
