Where I've lived, who I've met.

   This past weekend I finally got together with my high school friends after 5 years of not seeing each other, well I had seen some of them before but not all together as a group. It was pretty nice, it felt like it hadn't passed a single year, it felt like the old days when we used to have fun together watching movies or just laying on the floor laughing about something stupid. I can tell you we did all of that and more. It was really cool and fun, and nobody wanted it to end, because who knows when something like this might happen again.

Anyway, back at home I was feeling very emotional, I couldn't stop thinking about my life when I was living in Quilpué, the town where I grew up. I think I couldn't have asked for a better place to live my childhood. Me and my sister made some incredible friends, and had a wonderful time there, lots of good memories.

Before my life in Quilpué, I used to live in Santiago. Actually, I was born here, and almost all of my family was born and raised here. We moved to Quilpué when I was five, so I barely have any memories of my life before moving to the fifth region. And since I was very little, I was too young to make long lasting friendships with five year olds.

After all this thinking, it made me realize I've lived in 8 different houses. Two before moving to Quilpué and four while I was living there. And since I cameback to Santiago with my family, we've moved two times in 4 years, hoping the place where I'm living now is the last one we all live together as a family.

All that wibbly wobbly stuff.

Now that we have the chance to write about whatever we want, I think it's a good time to explain the name of my blog, where it comes from and what it means.

Well, actually it's a quote from my favortite british tv show, Doctor Who. "Wibbly wobbly timey wimey" doesn't really mean anything in particular, it's just something that the main character says when he's trying to explain how it's possible to travel trough time and space. Yup...time and space. And by saying that I think it's pretty clear that Doctor Who is a scifi tv show.

Now, I would like to tell you more about this amazing show and why it's one of my favorites of all time.

Doctor Who is about a 1000 year old alien called "The Doctor". He's a Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey, and it's the last one of his kind.

He may look human, but he has two hearts and the knowledge of a million wise men.

He doesn't travel alone, he always has someone beside him. These are his companions. They're usually people from Earth, mostly women haha, who he meets during his adventures.

And like any time traveller he has a special space ship/time machine called TARDIS, wich is an acronym for Time and Relative Dimension in Space. It looks like wooden blue police box on the outside, but "it's bigger on the inside".

Pretty cool, uh?

Another important fact about this show is that it has been on the air for 50 years. Reaching the hearts of millions of people in The UK.

A country I would like to visit

If I had to choose only one place to go, it would be London. Holy macaroni and cheese, batman!

God bless The UK hahaha. There are so many reasons why I'd love to go there. Since I was in high school I've had a thing for british accents, and the Harry Potter movies kind of made me to.

Besides the accent, I also love british television. Almost all of my favorite TV shows are brit. One of them is Doctor Who. This TV show has been on the air for 50 years, and this november they will be celebrating its anniversary. And because it has been on for so long,  people from different ages love it. Doctor Who is a big part of the british culture, and it's pretty usual to see a whole family in front of the "telly" every sunday afternoon watching Doctor Who.

One of my impossible dreams would be to get a job at the BBC and become a member of the crew that makes Doctor Who possible. I would seriously do anything, even bring coffee to one of the assistants of the assistant of the camera man, I wouldn't care as long as I got to be on set of that wonderful TV show.

But seriously talking, It'd be really amazing to go to The UK and maybe study something that could help me become a better proffesional, and also get a job, duh. And maybe travel around Europe, working in different places, who knows.

Also, most of my favorite actors are british as well. And from what I've seen on the internet, famous actors don't really mind using public transportation when they're in London. So what do you know, maybe if I get to use the "tube" as british people refer to the subway, I might get to sit right next to Tom Hiddleston, Matt Smith or Benedict Cumberbatch, haha.

My Ideal Job

Ideal job....hmmm, Is it really an "ideal" job out there? I'd like to think there is, but I'm not so sure. But that can't stop me from dreaming, right?

The career I'm studying at the present, has given me the chance to see all the different roles that are necessary to make a movie, ok maybe not ALL the roles but most of them. After almost four years I think I've really grown fond of what being an art director is. Of course I haven't done what a professional Art Director does, but there's something about it that makes me feel really excited wherever I get to take the role.

So, if we're talking about "ideal" jobs, I think becoming an Art Director would be one.

But, what does an art director do? Well, they're in charge of the Art Department in a movie, wich involves everything that's related to set designs, decorations, make up, hair, wardrobe, among other things.

Of course it would take more years after I graduate to specialize in Art Direction, and therefore more money as well, but I hope that a couple of years of practice give me the circumstances to learn more and more about this job. And meanwhile I get to study something related to Arts that can help me become a better professional. I think I need to know more about color, shapes and other things that can help me form a better judgement when it comes to taking decisions regarding what a movie should look like.

I really want to get a chance to do all this, I know it's not going to be easy, it'll take a lot of hard work and patience. I'm going to need to meet the right people the get this kind of job, and try to make the most of every opportunity a get.
