Almost 2 years ago I had the opportunity to see a video that really excited me, even wrote a post about it .

It was about the reallity Brit's Got Talent , one of the participants was Paul Potts a dreamer, who had his opportunity and shined.

Today, thanks to a post on his blog Rubi Torres Mammals, Technology and Sports , I learned of another dreamer who was looking for his chance at a new version of this reality.

Susan Boyle is her name has 47 years, and really seeing it in the video I was stunned, I think that struck me more than when I saw Paul Potts.

When you go on stage people do not think she could make a good presentation, there were even jokes when asked, What is your dream? She said I'm trying to be a professional singer, and why it happened before? asked, she said, because he never had the chance, but now everything could change.

Enjoy the video, tears are permitted

Everyone has a talent and a mission in life, maybe it is not easy to find, but when discovered, it all becomes satisfactory.

From the first time I came to Korea I heard a lot about your great food and if you enjoyed it enough on this occasion.

Now much more for every month that I'm living here, but something I heard from the first time and had not been able to prove was the famous " Dog Soup . "

Bosintang (보신탕) or dog soup , is very famous, but very secret so to speak. All Koreans know about it, but nobody says you know they sell it here or you can go in this direction, it's kind of a myth but very real.

The breed of dog that is used for this soup is special, is raised specifically for consumption. There is a soup that is consumed weekly and has a price of 15,000 won (13 USD) per person, a bit expensive for all budgets. The interesting thing is that during the hottest days of the year, usually in summer, this dish is traditional, so they lack the space for restaurants cater to diners.

When I asked many friends and colleagues about the famous soup, all have told me they have heard of it, one or two have tried, others have not tested because they say it smells bad (which I am not aware at all) .

The soup itself is now consumed by older people, young people the truth does not consume much in the subject they see dogs as pets, but I have other friends that they love.

In recent days the weather was so cold that there was nothing like jogging, now this week has begun to improve and winter officially ends in 2 weeks, finally.

Since this weekend I started running normally again, but I was surprised Monday a pain in the neck that keeps me moving, it seems stiff neck, see how I wake up tomorrow, but will play to go to the doctor to have treatment do you recommend.

Between that I've been lying down and reading this afternoon, I found this video that a friend has it in his blog , and I really liked it.

It is a tribute to Iron Man, who only wanted to see him until I got out to take the time, but plays well wait until tomorrow to continue training.

I expect and enjoy.

I write this post minutes before going to bed early (23H54) to years.

"I hope we Passed the Audition" (let's hope that the audition) were the last words of John Lennon on behalf of the Beatles , in their last live on the roof of an Apple office January 30, 1969.

This presentation was part of one of his most memorable albums "Let It Be", which took apart a movie in which they are practice sessions and recordings of the band.

Originally, the album would be called "Get back" because they were trying to return to their roots of rock and roll, but in the end was called "Let it be".

In the film we see the tension between the group, a McCartney too demanding and trying to take the band forward, Ringo and Harrison together but despised at the same time, while Lennon with Yoko no matter what they did.

Today we find many music videos, lectures, films through Youtube , Vimeo , etc. and is very cool to go back to listen to songs from years ago that found them anywhere, that's good for me, that many songs the 80s not find them.

We can download the videos to play on our computers via a firefox add-on called Download Helper , but when we hear it for half an audio player complicate things.

That's why for GNU / Linux a program called FFmpeg that can be installed through the repositories, or via terminal

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

From the first time I heard this song I felt great for its music and the feeling that brought the same even without being able to understand the lyrics when I was little.

Now with the passing of the years I understand, the truth which is great. I always liked the interpretation of Frank Sinatra, but really, Robbie Williams is worth a listen.

And as I've said many times, always in my way ...

Recalling, in this cold Saturday afternoon, a song from 1993, although I do not know where you are from Ricardo Perotti

In recent days took me to McDonalds and I broke my diet for the day.

I think the fact of eating well for several weeks and made the burger itself has no taste to me.

Well, during the stay in the room had a record of hits from the 90's I think, and there I went to listen to the years the song Everclear " I will buy you a new life "brought back many memories of my time in Canada and the Yoni .

Here I leave the video to remember you too.
