Every day, we have a routine that brings us to this crazy and fast world were each of us draw a line wich must be followed almost like every single day. We always wake up, drink our coffe, eat something, grab wherever we need and leave, either to work or school.
I have to assume that is not very often that I read some kind of magazine, because I read more newspaper, but everytime I stop to take a look at a magazine, there is something that brings my attention to it. Magazines that brings topics about travelling like: "Viagem e Turismo" from Brazil, are the reason why I stop my day to read every single article.The fact that I'll be reading a magazine that takes me everywhere without really getting out of my house it's brilliant.
If you open "Viagem e Turismo" you'll see not only pictures about travelling, but also will read experiences of regular people, like you and me, travelling around the world, talking about best spots that we shouldn't miss while visiting such and such country. You'll also see top 10 lists of hotel, restaurants, languages that they speak, best events, etc. No, I don't subscribe this magazine, but only because I'm here in the USA now, because when I was in Brazil, it was obviously the type of magazine that would be in my house, every single room that you'd be passing by, if you were there visiting me.
Talking about experiences inside or outside of your house, I also have the passion for movies. And yes, I love to go see it at the cinema( like the british say), not at home. Of course, when I don't have time, or when I need something more relaxing, I'd rather stay at home, then leave the house to go to the movies. But, to go there, sit in front of this huge screen, perfect sound and image. Specially if it is a movie like: " Harry Potter" that you just get amazed by the special effects.
Recently one movie got my attention: " Law Abiding Citizen". I got this free ticket to go see it and to be sincere with you, It's violent. And I just don't like films that have violent topics, or people start kiling for no reason, and they acctually show you the way they kill everybody, but this movie is FANTASTIC! The story intrigues differents points of view of the law sistem in the US and brings the fact that sometimes people don't care about doing justice with their own hands.
To go there, and be part of this huge screen experience is one of the best shots for me in life. I like unpacking the story, getting nervous, excited, crying, laughing. It's this mix of emotions that you are afraid of showig inside of this room full of people. But, you feel like: '' It's dark, nobody is seeing or listening to me, so why not to cry when Harry Potter is challenged by Voldermort, and you think he is going to die" .
I know, there's tons of sensations and feelings that we bring either travelling around the world trough a Magazine, or a Movie. And we all know our habits of reading or seeing a movie that everytime that these two events happen we all react on a different way. Maybe we are on the bathroom sitting there, concentrated reading some interesting topic about the Rain Forest on the "Viagem a Turismo" Magazine. Or, we are on the movies, eating popcorn, drinking soda or tea, and trying to understand what happened with the robots and human beings on: " The Surrogates". Magazines and Films are not only part of our routine, but also part of our lives.
