Hi kids!
How is going the new year?
I've just come back from Bilbao. I went to see The Darkness live. The gig was awesome and I had a great time with my friends. Such a nice way to start 2016. Although not everything is fun, since Alan Rickman's death made me sad. I've been a Rickmanist for at least fifteen years, and I'll miss him deeply. Now back to the books and the library life.
But before, let's look back and review 2015.
END OF THE YEAR SURVEY - 2015 EDITION
1. What did you do in 2015 that you'd never done before? I wrote a TFM (research paper), I got a master degree, I taught history in high school, I got my dog Orión, and I tested two board games.

2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year? For 2015 I want to keep working in my musical and photography skills. To give my best in my master and TFM. And to write down the set of topics for my public examination once and for all. 
I believe I did and gave my best in my master and TFM, and I've been working in my photography and archivist stuff. Not so much in my musical skills. For 2016 I want to write down the set of topics for my public examination once and for all, and to keep exploring my photography.

Hi kids!
Let's talk for a bit about life and stuff.
I finished my master for becoming a Secondary teacher. It went very well; the courses, the intership in my old school, and my researching paper. I got high grades and the sense of a great work.
Then, ACNIL celebrated our second themed convention. This year the topic were pirates! So I've got to paint a nice "Calico Jack". Compared to last year's Harry Potter banners, this was easy peasey. Excuse the webcam pics.
The convention was hard work but it sure was worth the effort. We got to one thousand visitors! I feel very proud of my best friend Miuray who was the organizing boss. To celebrate our success we went to the Level Up León. I tried there a lot of new board games. I felt in love with the super cute Sushi Go!, and bought it.
At last, I got a tutor for my archives' examination. There's still a long way to go, but now I'm sure I can do it.
Overall, summer was nice. But my grandma got sick, a heart disease. She got worse over september, and died the 7th of October. I feel very sad and a little more alone in the world.

Hi Kids!
Sit down, and let's talk about life and art for a bit.
My family has grown. Now, we have a new family member; my dog Orión! He's the first dog I've ever had. He's a great puppy. I mean, look at him. Too cute for school
I'm still quite busy, doing too many things at once. I still have two university courses, my teaching "intership", my researching paper (about the monastery of Santa Dorotea). And to write down the set of topics for my public examination once and for all. Quite stressful. I went with my friends to Asturias, in a small trip to relax. Asturias is beautiful but three days are so little time. Whatever.
Well, let's talk about art. Sheharzad-Arshad was offering rough sketches for low prices, and I couldn't resist. I've being a fan of his art since... forever. I've always loved his strange and creepy tales, and his weird sense of humour. His artwork "Icecream eating" was hanging in my room for all my university years. So I commissioned a sketch of my pets, Orión the dog and Damita the hedgehog. Not only he was kind enough to accept my commission, but he gave it to me as a gift! I feel so grateful and happy
Well kids, see you next time!
Take care of yourselves!

As if you were a king-maker
As if, as if, as if

I don't want to see the world that way anymore
I don't want to feel that weak and insecure
As if you were my fucking pimp
As I was your fucking whore
All the young graves filled
Don't the best all burn out
So bright and so fast?
Full body high
I'm never coming down
Black me out
