THE REFUGEES

When we went to Barcelona we saw an exposition about refugees photos. All the photos were really impressive, but there was one that impressed me the most. It was about a man with crutches walking alone in a road in night, alone. He is in Australia, but have nothing there, he is just hoping to find someone who help him. We can see he is one leg less, probably this man escaped from a war where he was injured. Unfortunately there is nobody with him, maybe he lost his family in the war or they had to leave to another country. Everyday a lot of people is suffering like this, remember this is just one of the lot of pictures of the exposition, one of the lot of persons that are in this regrettable situation, with no help.

POKKEN TOURNAMENT  AND POKEMON GO

To commemorate the 20th birthday of Pokemon Nintendo have announced three new games for this 2016. Pokemon Go expected since 2015 and there were a lot of rumors about when will they be able. People was really exited bescause a revealed adverstiment showed it was a mobile game, and supposedly free! But nobody expected there will be two more games in this year.

POKEMON GO : As I said before, it was expected since the end of last year. Nintendo revealed a trailer that became popular in few days. There appeared people using a virtual reallity app to find and catch a lot of Pokemons. They also trade them with friends and battle agnaist other players. The quality if the trailer thrilled a lot of public, and in few days everybody was interested in this project.

POKKEN TOURNAMENT: This game isn't released yet in Europe but we know will be in the european markets the 18th March. Nowadays just the Japanese people can play it, and there are only a few gameplays posted on YouTube. The game seems pretty cool and I'm sure a lot of people will play it. The only ''problem'' is that only the people who have a Wii U console will can play it. Pokkemon Tournament is a 3D game about pokemon fights where you can choose one between 15 characters and fight a 1 vs 1 fight with somebody. It is really popular in Japan now but will be not here because a lot of people prefer Play Station Games before Nintendo ones.

20 YEARS OF POKEMON

The 27 February of this year was the 20th birthday of Pokemon! Was 20 years ago when you could buy the firsts games of Pokemon: Pokemon Red and Green. And now there are more than 60 Pokemon games and Nintendo still working in new games. In my opinion Pokemon is one of the greatest games ever, I've been playing on this series since I was a child, and I've never get tired of this kind of games! People says all Pokemon games are the same, but this is not true! Maybe the battle system is the same, but not the main story, or the GYM leaders ( People who you must defeat to prove your power ). There are several facts that keep the game alive, and not all the games have them, that's why some videogames stop being famous in few years. The most important are these:

THE COMMUNITY

A lot of people plays Pokemon games, and the most of players are proud of it. People who really loves this game have no problem to go into webpages like forums or social webs and share his experiences to other players. There are a lot of persons asking questions to veteran players to solve his problems or sometimes are the veteran players who ask about doing an online tournament with a big prize for the winner. It is like everybody is happy and makes the other players his friends, just for playing the same videogame! This kind of things create a strong community that will love this game even they don't play it.

THE RELATIONSHIP OF NINTENDO WITH THE COMMUNITY

Nintendo really loves their community. This company is not the typical who work just for getting benefits , it take cares of every single of his game to guarantee a good experience to the players. How do they do it? One of the things that like them a lot is creating events. The most famous Nintento events are like this : They choose a game, like Pokemon for example, and they give to the players a limited edition character that will not appear anywhere in years. Of course this is not the only thing they do, Nintendo has organized every year a Pokemon World Championship, where the best players of the world fight for the master Pokemon title.

ORIGINALITY

At the first game of Pokemon where just 151 pokemons to catch, now there are up to 720. There is a design team doing a great job in the Nintendo offices, creating new characters and skills for them. And not just the characters! All the pokemon world where the action is is also did by them: the structures of cities and towns, the landscapes of forests and seas ... I just think their job must be really hard, but his results are just spectacular.

REVO AND SOUND HORIZON
Revo's real name is Yasuo Kamanaka, and he was born on June 19, in 1973. He is a Japanese composer that has been for many years working in videogames and anime soundtracks. He isn't very famous, but he's songs are awesome. The song I like the most is called ''That Person's Name Is'' and is from a game called Bravely Default. It is just one of many games he composed for, being the most important the games of the Final Fantasy series. He is the founder of Sound Horizon, the musical project who did the opening theme of the famous anime Shingeki no Kyojin. Revo has started composing music at the 90's, at 17 years age, and he post his works into a webpage nowadays deleted.When he was 28 he convinced some of his friends to create a musical group ( Sound Horizon ), and his first performance was in an event called Comiked, in Tokio. There the people sell and buy dôjinshi ( A kind of Japanese comic books ), and sometimes musical groups, or important people go there to play musical pieces or talk about something. Sound Horizon first performance was a success and they start becoming famous ( Not around the world ). Was on 2006 when they start to compose and play music for videogames and anime series, and that like them a lot, so they decided to  continue doing that. Nowadays they cooperate with big companies like Nintendo to create the best soundtracks for his games.

 

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

Well, here are my New Year resolutions, but actually they are no from New Year eve's, they are more like ''Last days of January Resolutions". I Hope you like it.

LIVE ONE MORE YEAR

 This is the most important thing in this list. I'm not tired of living yet so I wish live one more year and if its possible this must be a good year, basically because I think this last year I didn't do things that now I want to do, and at least I'd like to have one more year to try them.

GO ONCE MORE TO THE GRANOLLERS CUP

The Granollers Cup is an important handball tournament where participate teams from around the world. Every year people from Russia, Norway, Denmark, China and other countries come expressly to take part in this tournament. It is in Granollers, as the name says, and the matches are played there or in close towns like Canovelles. There are people of different ages, but the matches are played by people of the same. Last year I went there with my team HC Empordà and we win some games, but the funny is not go to play and win or lose, the best part is meeting people from around the world and talk to them. Well there is not all OK, the worst thing is the food, and you must eat 3 times a day so ... Another bad fact is when you are playing and someone does a mistake, everybody see it and start laughing or else, it is like play in a professional team.

LEARN TO PLAY THE PIANO

At the last days of 2015 I've been trying and learning to play the piano, I'm not going to a music school because when I was like 10 yeas old I tried it and the results weren't good. When I talk about the results I mean be there studding every day without playing nothing, and if that was not enough I didn't like my teachers and I didn't like to them because they said the music I used to listen wasn't music. So I hope can learn without taking lessons, or take them by YouTube or something ... Because I don't time to go to the music school again to learn nothing.

START THINKING WHAT I'M GONNA DO AFTER ESO

This is currently one of my worst problems. I know after ESO I want to continue studding, but what? There are a lot of subjects that I like a lot : Physics, Chemistry, Biology ... And that's a good point, because I know
I'll go for scientific studies, but after two years focusing this I don't have an idea if I will get tired and  want to try something new... Maybe I need to go to talks about this where different universities explain what kind of jobs I can go for, which are the best places to learn about things that interest me... A lot of people is telling me : ''You are young yet to start thinking like this'' or ''Don't worry, you got time to decide''. But I still worried, because I know probably I will find the answer of the questions I ask myself too late ...

I post this late because at New Year's Eve I didn't know the resolutions yet. I'm find living like this and nowadays I don't have too much objectives.

WORLD'S BEST PHOTOS

This photo is from an album of National Geographic called Deadly Instinct, it shows us a caterpillar devouring his prey. Is really striking and unusual too because normally we think caterpillars are the preys but in this case not. This two insects are in a green leaf where we can suppose the caterpillar was camouflaged. It seems the fly was resting quietly in this plant when suddenly this predator jumped into hiss back to stab it with his deadly fangs. Thanks to the powerful camera the photographer used we can appreciate every single detail of this picture : the difference between  the colors of the fly and the landscape ( that probably put the fly into a defenseless position ), the hideous posture of the fly's corpse, the mighty legs of the caterpillar penetrating into his prey ... This unusual king of caterpillars live in Australia, and they evolved from simple preys to professional killers. I've found a National Geographic video about this spice that could be interesting:
