The Fight Club and 1984

The Fight Club

It's very difficult to choose just one to be my favorite movie because there are too many good films but one of them would definitely be The fight club (which is also a book by the way) released in 1999, it's about a group of men that initiate a clandestine club where they fight almost to the death, it's a mind-blowing film because it talks about a lot more than just fights and it makes you reconsider a lot of things about your life, consumerism, society and how we believe blindly in it, reaching bottom and losing yourself in the processes to finally find the real you.

1984

And on the other side my favorite book it's "1984", written in 1949 by George Orwell its about a future dystopic world where we live under a totalitarian government that is always watching and controlling everyone, you must not do something that they don't want you to do and you have to believe anything that they say its true or it would be consequences. The book is about a man and how he tried to live his life in that society after he already opens his eyes and slowly starts to understand the truth. 

For what they talk about and how we see things differently after, those are on my list of films and books that everyone should watch and read.

The best week of my life

"El Tabo"

My last year of high school my friends and I decided that since that was supposed to be our last year as classmates it would be a great idea to go on a trip together, so we started to see all the possibilities that we had and well... six teenagers that did not have a lot of money really didn't have many options to choose. We spend weeks trying to figure out what we could do, looking for places to rent or camp but it was hard to find a good one that wasn't expensive and when we were about to surrender I remembered that my grandfather has an old hut on the beach, I told that to my friends and it was perfect for them.

At night 

Time passed fast, we got out of school, did the test and we were finally free so we immediately started packing our things and as soon as we could we got on a bus. We got there and walked to the hut that was at the top of a hill, the house hasn't been used in a long time so we had to clean everything before we could do something, after cleaning we were ready to relax so we went down to the beach and spend the rest of the day there.

The rest of the week was pretty much the same, our routine was waking up and spend the morning talking, then someone made lunch and after that, we went swimming in the ocean or we went out at night.

I will always have those holidays on my heart and hopefully, they will repeat again someday.
