Dudes, I’ve just found this great thing. Love this blog, sometimes it’s nice to read this.

memorize poetry
Learning by heart

Learning poetry by heart is something really wonderful. This is like learning songs, the rhythm of a poem lingers around and you feel joy, or sorrow, crystal pure melancholy…

I was memorizing poetry of Federico GarcĂ­a Lorca. his lines made me crying and smiling at the same time, they inspired me and sometimes there was a feeling like I had wings.

Ok, I became sentimental. I just mean that this is worth doing. It is even practical, because learning by heart makes your memory work better.



Write letters to older self
Letters to older self

Ok, I did that thing. I was a college student and I saw my elder friend doing this and I said to myself “Oh, what a good Idea!” And wrote it. Aiming to read this in 5 years. But since I was a very impatient person I decided to do as follows.

I wrote a letter in a few pages. Then I tore it into pieces and put them into a tin and took it to my grandma’s home in order not to read the letter earlier.

Actually, 7 years passed since that time. The tin is here, I only have to open it and collect the puzzle. But I’m too lazy, and really do not want to fool around with the paper scraps.

Never do it like this! ;)

P.S.: The picture is an artwork by my friend Paulina Rodriguez. It is called the Jar of Dreams.
