Before I die.....

Before you chose to write about this topic, I had read an article on Time Magazine in which a nurse revealed 5 regrets patients made in their deathbed.  The five 5 things were:

1.  I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
2. I wish I didn’t work so hard.
3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier

We usually think about the things we want to do and soon as we accomplish them, we want to do something else.  That’s the way our lives go on, I have thought about this article a lot because we take simple things for granted!. Nobody regrets something like “Oh, I should have got a bigger house” or “I should have got Ph.D. degree”, when people are dying they think about their family, friends, someone they loved.  The most important thing I want to do before I die is living my life as I want it to be but I think I should not forget that love and people around me are really important. It’s so easy to get caught up in life, that we usually don’t give our family and friends enough time that's why some people end up in their deathbed completely alone.  (222)

The best concert I’ve had

It’s has always been hard for me to decide what’s my best in everything.  I think every experience is unique so what’s the best concert I’ve had?.  I thought about Soda Stereo’s last concert in Chile, I probably thought about it because Gustavo Cerati has recently died and when I heard the news a lot of memories came to my mind.  I remember how I sang every single song that day, I also remember I was very excited and sad at the same time; one of my favorite bands was going to say good bye.

How to forget how much trouble I got into for going to that concert!;   I was living with my grandparents, they were not very fond of concerts, because they thought I would be dangerous for their lovely granddaughter, so I had to tell a lie. I said I would go to a friend’s party and I would stay in her house.  The problem was that she said the same!  When the concert was over we had nowhere to go! (I was hypothetically in her house and she was in mine). It was fun at the beginning but later it was disgusting.  It was cold that night, we were tired and sleepy and I remember were driving from one place to another waiting for the sunrise. Anyway, I don’t regret it! (225)
