Blurb
Juan de Dios is about to become an adult. He lives with his father but never sees him. They have different timetables and their relationship is similar to a flatmate one.
He is now studying a lot and he will soon complete his last school year.
He can´t stand the classes: 6 hours a day is too much for him and is about to get stuck.
He likes to study but has hardly time to do it. In addition classes make he be knackered
When the last year ends, Juande gets so pleased and has a lot of time to get ready for the university entrance test.
Nevertheless, there is a problem! now his timetable is inverted and his father plays music at mornings. How will he study?
He quickly finds a curious way to do it.

Things I´ll do before I die.
Before I die...
...I´ll adopt the pug with the most bulging eyes in the world. I´ll call him Franco
...I´ll sneak in the area 51 with a Captain America costume. Then, I´ll be retrying it for a week with different costumes, such as ninja turttle or Robin Hood.
...I´ll pay the best artist in the world to make a portrait of me. I´ll grimace.
...I´ll borrow a lot of traffic cones and I´ll change the traffic of a big city.
...I´ll go to a trial walking like birds do, skipping instead of walking.
...I´ll show off my motorbike riding it in underwear in a big city center.
...I´ll take a nap everyday in a mattress shop. I´ll try to do it everyday for a long time although they ask me to leave the first time
...I´ll construct a bridge above the palace I´ll live in. Then I´ll tell all my family and friends where my house is.
...I´l go to the driving school by car
...I´ll break a guinness record
...I´ll change an old fashioned car engine by a lamborghini one. Then I´ll frustrate the rest of the drivers
...I´ll be the stuntman in a martial arts film.
...I´ll dedicate one the best buildings I´ll design to my aunt Leslie.

Quoting
I´ll write about two quotes:
I)"It´s only after we´ve lost everything that we´re free to do anything" From the film "Fight club"
II) "El hombre no posee naturaleza sino historia" From the book "El tema de nuestro tiempo" By Ortega y Gasset
Contextualización: Al hablar del hombre de historia, me refiero al que está rodeado por los hechos pasados, el cálculo ineludible del futuro, una sociedad que marca todas las pautas y unas aspiraciones vitales plenamente capitalistas.
I find these two quotes so meaningful because I think that the human been hasn´t only evolved postively. We are not animals because we have the ability to think, what is a huge advantage for our specie.
Our survival is guaranteed, but, since the greek philosophers gave all the importance to the reason, we´ve aspired to happiness using it.
As Ortega y Gasset said, humans don´t have nature anymore, and from my point of view, thats the main obstacle
All the things we have, all the people we want to protect, the house we´re already paying, the job we aspire to, or the one we don´t want to loose are positive things for the history man.
But the nature man disappears when we have all these things, and we can´t be happy if we don´t put them together. (I mean the history and nature man)
The nature man is absolutely free to do anything, he doesn´t know any morals and he doesn´t have anything to loose. He lives like an animal.
Our body has been designed to be like that, so that the happiness feeling is only produced when nature man reaches his aspirations.
Nevertheless, we´ve lost it all, we are subjugated to artificial morals and society made us contain our instincts.
And this is the meaning I find in the film "fight club", in which a "happy" history man got stuck and literally destroid everything he had.
He created a figthing club for people who want to disconnect from their civilized lifes, and they all reached a mind freedom that really made them enjoy.
Does it sound crazy? sure! You´re a history man!
