The image I choose was from SEE Florida magazine. It portrays a normal day at a beach, Palm Beach. Its very colorful and there are four umbrellas with some stripe patterns and colors from yellow to blue and green. There are like six groups of people in the beach and some others in the water, although they look blurry because of the distance the photo was taken we can still see the colorful beach chairs, towels and coolers. From these six groups there are four in the left of a lifeguard house and two to its right. The lifeguard house is the focus point of the camera as it’s more close to it and the water its in the background. The lifeguard house is white with a very interesting form like part of a yacht; I make this association because the doors with black crystals certainly make you think in a yacht. The “house” is surrounded by railings and elevated by wood panels in the four corners. Lying on the railings are two red torpedo buoys, and by the side of the house (in the sand) there’s a boat and a surfboard with “RESCUE” written all over it. By both sides of this house there is big chunks of grass and in the front there are four red cones with some distance between them. It’s a very beautiful beach with blue, clear water, white clouds and a very bright sunshine. Looks amazing and it makes me think in Puerto Rico!

Marijuana, formal name being Cannabis Sativa; a plant that contains tetrahydracannibinol, more commonly known as THC, the active ingredient which provides an existential like state of cosmic interaction known as being high.
Since ancient times this drug has been used for recreation, medicine and even religious or spiritual rituals. In the early 20th century cannabis was subjected to legal restrictions for the possession, use, and sale. Although marijuana is currently illegal in most countries of the world, the United Nations has informed that is the most-used illicit drug in the world. This is the reason a debate for legalization started in many countries around the world, even the United States. On November 6, 2012, Colorado and Washington became the first states in the US to legalize the sale and possession of cannabis for recreational use since the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937. So' if some states of the United States legalized or decriminalized it, why wouldn't Puerto Rico? Puerto Rico is in a current debate because a senator wishes to decriminalize the possesion of the drug but not everyone is in favor. There are some factors contributing to this, more like myths... the most heard one is that it's the "gateway drug", its assumed that trying weed increases the probability that users will eventually use "harder" drugs, this is NOT true as there is no evidence to prove it. Also some people catalog marijuana users as "losers" or people that will not become anything in life, this is NOT accurate as any kind of person from homeless people to congressmen have used or are currently using it. We live in a society that has told us these myths since we were kids but this situation is much more complex... The debate is simple: Stay as we are vs medical legalization only or decriminalization. Many agencies are being part of it, from the Department of Justice to the Administration of mental health. Those in favor of decriminalization (people with 21 years or more, allowed 1 ounce) are because they know the current punitive approach does not address effectively the problem of drug addiction (~2 years in jail for just one cigarette of marijuana) and they are trying to make a civil focus rather than criminal. Also the criminal approach we have now is draining the economy of the country as tax money is destined to keep inmates (for just 1 cigarette) in jail ($ 101 is the daily cost per inmate in Puerto Rico); this money can be allocated elsewhere and the legal sale can generate huge tax revenues as well as wipe out the black market. Those against decriminalization either are with the medical legalization or to stay as we are; medical legalization because it's great for cancer, AIDS, multiple sclerosis, etc. And those against are the ones that believe in the myths, "it's the gateway drug" among others and believe it will be destructive for our society. I think that the legalization of marijuana cannot be destructive for our society as our society is already destroyed by drugs. My humble opinion can be described in just two words: LEGALIZE IT. It's time to take off the blinders and stop the hypocrisy, I dare to say that 80% of people from 18 to 60 years have used or tried it at least once. It's very hypocritical when a person is against decriminalizing/legalizing something they have done or used when young or wherever. We have to stop trying to ignore the BIG problem this constitutes in our society as the black market is in full force selling, killing, taking control, spreading terror and determining as we live. It's time to stop this and legalization is the only way, the government has tried it many ways for many years and it has not succeeded yet so another approach is necessary! Cannabis is great for medicinal use, it's not addictive like alcohol and nicotine that are legal, and it's natural -fruit of the earth. It's important to stop with the myths, drug users (hard drugs) will still be drug users if marijuana existed or not, so there is no need to make it responsible for people being addicted to heroin, cocaine, meth, etc. I do believe that after legalization there must be education for the upcoming generations about its use, but that's it... that's another story; a very important one as people still don't know that the only way to fix this society is through education. This is the ONE issue that should be addressed as passionately as marijuana legalization. PS: The final result of this debate, hahaha... they'll speak and speak and fight and fight, but in the end Puerto Rico will legalize it, either now or in fifty years, it's just the wise decision.
It is quite hard to expose your life in a compilation of songs, not the easiest thing but I shall try. Each and every single one of these songs gave me strength, hope, happiness, even advice when I needed it the most. Music is life, I'll never get tired of saying it. "Well, you see, the way I feel about the music, it can be copied, you know? But, it’s not copy do it, it’s the feel, you know? It carry a feel Well, you ask plenty musicians -- them know it, but them can't do it Some people still searching for this truth here"- Bob Marley 1. Soundtrack to my life- by Kid Cudi. Why this song? Well, it's a great way to start my soundtrack, it is a perfect description of my life, it talks about problems and issues that nobody can see but me. He may be talking about his life but I totally relate to this song. I heard it for the first time 3 years ago, and it became one of my favorites. 2. Family Portrait- P!nk This song represents my childhood, it's not easy when your parents are always fighting even when they are already divorced. Nothing explains this stage of my life better than this song. Children know everything even when they don't show it. I think it makes us stronger and determined to someday have that solid marriage that our parents couldn't have. 3. Amor y Control- Rúben Blades I have given tickets to two concerts of this man to my mom, because he is one of her favorites. He's one of my favorites too...so I always go with her. This song talks about family, there's no other topic more sensitive for me because, I don't really like to admit it but my family is dysfunctional and the bit of the son being a drug user became a reality in my family. I love my brother but he actually went that way, he's good now but some years ago, it was a very hard time for my family and specially my mom. "Que a pesar de los problemas familia es familia y cariño es cariño" is my favorite quote...I cry every time I hear this song, and there is no way I wasn't going to put it in this list. 4. Run this town- Jay Z ft. Rihanna and Kanye West This song represents my "wild moment" in life, this was from eleventh grade to like third year of university. I partied and kept partying, I knew a LOT of people and a lot of people knew me. I used to go to Brava and a lot of places with my girls and we didn't even had to pay in the entrance, the alcohol or do the lines, because everyone knew us... so' this song (haha!) describes those moments. 5. Wild ones- Flo-rida ft. Sia Another song about my "wild times", this one is even called that way! I was many years in that life, so I felt that it deserved another song. 6. Miss Independent- Ne-yo One of my favorite songs of all time. I can stop hearing it for years and then when I hear it, it feels like the first time. It describes me as a woman, I'm very proud and I will not ask for anything to anyone if I can work to get it. 7. Fly- Nicky Minaj ft. Rihanna This song represents my focus towards my goals, me becoming a pharmacist and all the work I have done and will do just to achieve that. This song is important because I may have been crazy with my life, but always managed to focus on my future and didn't neglect my studies. It's about going after what you want because no one will hand it to you if you don't fight for it. 8. Headlines- Drake First of all I love the beat of this song and the style, this is my favorite type of music. This song is a MUST HAVE in my soundtrack because it's about friends, if one goes up and gets glory one should share all the victories with them, the ones that were always there in the bad situations and moneyless moments. I actually just read an article of Zach Galifianakis (Alan from The Hangover), in which it said that he bought an apartment for a homeless woman and took her to the premiere of The Hangover III. She was his friend when he wasn't successful...and when became successful he still visited her and helped her when she became homeless. This is what this song is about, friendship and NOT forgetting who they really are, because when you are up everybody wants to be your friend but when you are in a bad situation they just leave, just the real ones stay. 9. Hello- Beyonce This song is about the part of my life where I meet someone very special for me (like 2nd year of university), it describes everything I felt from the very beginning. He had me at hello! 10. Pursuit of happiness- Kid Cudi This song is totally not in chronological order because I will always be on the pursuit of happiness so there is no specific number I can give it. It's even on the Declaration of Independence..."Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness". It's a MUST in everyones life! 11. Mirrors- Justin Timberlake & The Scientist- Coldplay Sometimes two people like each other very much but things don't work out because of many reasons, and after not talking for 1 and a half years with the boy who had me at hello...we came close again. We were so similar, same interests, everything... he was like me, boy version haha! I was in a bubble thinking everything will be different and I was going to get what I dreamed for 2 years. These songs are imperative in here. Also I LOVE them. 13. Holy Grail- Jay Z ft. Justin Timberlake After a while I realized that nothing was actually different, the exactly same description in this song happened. Sometimes people try to ignore the bad things because you don't want to lose the person or in the case of this song, the fame. 14. Deuces- Chris Brown ft. Tyga and Kevin McCall When people is not happy, they are supposed to part ways, so start a new life without that person is what I did. Deuces! ;) 15. Fix you- Coldplay Then another important thing in my life came to bite me in the ass. I had applied last year to the School of Pharmacy in el Recinto de Ciencias Medicas, and after an interview and everything a letter arrived to my home. I was not accepted! So' everything from love to dreams fell apart in a second... it just came at the same time... When you try your best but you don't succeed When you get what you want but not what you need When you feel so tired but you can't sleep Stuck in reverse And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace When you love someone but it goes to waste Could it be worse? Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you And high up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go But if you never try you'll never know Just what you're worth Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you 16. Lose yourself- Eminem This song gives me the strength to keep fighting for what I want, and to leave fear far away from me. If you have fear you will never do anything with your life...so' this song helps remind me of that. "You only get one shot, do not miss the chance to blow this opportunity comes once in a lifetime", "Success is my only motherfu**ing option, failure's not" and "So here I go is my shot, feet fail me not this may be the only opportunity that I got" are my favorite quotes in this song. This song have very powerful and meaningful lyrics for me. 17. High Time- Brent Berry & Honest Abe I became addicted to this song watching a series from the UK called Skins. This song represents my mentality of "living". This is the perfect time for living and nothing... no boy or rejection letter, will stand in my way to live fully and to achieve my goals. Not stoping for anybody! 18. El wanabi- Fiel a la Vega This song does NOT need any type of description... it says it all! Hace ya bastantes años que no se juega por jugar. Cambio el guante de pelota por las cartas del azar. Y yo que me la pasé esperando por la mayoría de edad pa'que me dejaran salir solo a la calle y cruzar hasta la ciudad. Y descubrir ese mundo nuevo de edificio por empañetar donde las estrellas se dan en el cine y en en cielo, solo hay gas... Y así echamos todo hacia un lado, al familiar y a la amistad, cambiando el suelo de tantos años por un estudio que paga más, y trabajando en restaurantes de mensajeros de lo que sea, automatizados en una espera, por una gran oportunidad oyendo anécdotas de otra gente que fueron antes igual que tú, de limpiamesas que tuvieron suerte y que ahora viven en Hollywood... ---- Coro ---- Dame un momento pa'probar de que estoy echo, je, je, je Soy el que va cuesta arriba soy el que va al asecho je, je, je... Quizás, algún día comprenda lo que importa de verdad, quizá lo que importa en esta vida es algo que no tiene que ver con las cosas que persigo con todo aquello que soñe, pero algo necesito, oye, algo tengo que creer, quizás mi sueño no valga nada, quizás sea algo que me inventé como un mapa como una guía, como una excusa que promover, Soñar tiene algo de engañarnos de ser hoy alguien más que ayer malagradeciendo lo que se nos a dado pués nos importa más saber, como sería todo al otro lado que te escucharan solo una vez, Que aplaudieran esa osadia Que criticaron la primera vez sé que se oye egocentrista pero lo digo sin maldad. Si nada de esto significa algo No habría un Clemente, NO habría un Julia... -Coro- Pero yo quiero que nos entendamos que nadie se me ponga a dudar de que yo sigo con lo mio y eso es a como de lugar quizás, no es el mismo brillo quizás, no es misma la intensidad pero ya pasé la mitad del camino y no pienso regresar con las manos vacias con lamentos con un cuento sin culminar no quiero irme concediendo otra victoria a esta ciudad... 19. Feeling good by Nina Simone This song represents my life right now, this very moment. Focused on my studies, giving importance to what's really important in life, doing things right and applying to universities in the united states. I'm feeling good! Because I know that I will make it and next year I'll be in the United States studying to be a pharmacist and being independent. Actually I'm not feeling good, I'm feeling great! 20. I was here by Beyonce I love this song and it's the perfect ending to any life or in this case "the soundtrack to my life"... it's like a summary of your life and letting everyone know that you were here, you lived here, you left some kind of mark on this Earth! Of these twenty songs I would say that my theme song is: "El wanabi" by Fiel a la Vega. It has been relevant for me since forever and I know it will always be, even if it's just to remind me of my twenties. After reading "A Collegiette's Classification of UPR men" and having a blast just by doing so, I would change just like a thing or two, because the rest is pretty accurate. The classifications, especially the scientic names given, were perfect. I would specify that these are the most you would see in any given faculty but there are exceptions. Also I can prove that the crocs are out of fashion (for my taste they were never fashionably!) for the Naturales men, aka homo jodido, maybe they met with their NOT SO distant cousin homo cabrónus last christmas, because the Top-Siders (Sperry's) are the shoes every guy in Naturales has. Also I would divide Naturales by departments because every department has an affinity or a cousin from different faculties in this University. It's not so simple, Naturales is so much more complex than just the homo jodido type, I mean the name is perfect cause in the end everyone is jodido in Naturales but the scientific name should have a last name or something distinguishably by department.
In Naturales you can find the biologists who are, I wouldn't say "distant cousin of the homo cabrónus" I would call it the same homo cabrónus but jodido!, you know like the applied twin; usually a conversation with them is about the MCAT, Palomino, Palmas del Mar, or Brava. You can find the Chemists who are the homo cabrónus cousin who doesn't have time to sleep or go to the mall, so' uses whatever t-shirt he can find in the morning, conversations with them leads to MCAT, PCAT, GRE or physical chemistry, aka the class who 95% of chemists try run away from (I can say this because I am from chemistry, and I did try to run away from it). Apart from them, El Sapo gives shelter to the ones in Ciencias Naturales general program, skaters, gamers, random, awkward people who obviously have too much free time on their hands, they are close family of the homo charro for sure. The ones from Ciencias Ambientales can be confused with the homo trafala from HUMA or the homo lumpen from CISO, they usually make you feel very guilty of drinking water from a bottle and not recycling, they also have a little garden in the middle of Naturales who only have given birth to a tomato, in 5 years! But the real myth in Naturales are the physics and mathematics who are up there with the Homo invisible, because in my 5 years I have not meet even one. Then there are the guys who you never see in all of the semester and see them for the first time (with muscles, tan, well dressed and very well rested) in finals and they are the ones that make you ask: "does he even go here?!", because they obviously led a very good, perfect, active life during the semester and don't look jodido at all. If we were to talk about the girls, it would be the SAME story... I guess it's a concept that has taken a lot of time to create and will be hard to get rid of it. This story is in UPR Río Piedras Campus, i can't really talk about any other campuses because i haven't had the time to study them, like Ms. Thurin obviously did with the different faculties to get all of those unique and accurate scientific names. My three favorite artists are Bob Marley, Eminem and last but not least Pink. I can't really explain why they are my favorites... I mean I guess my love for their music started simply as a matter of "taste". My ears loved what they heard, the music, beats and words. Loving something it can't really be explained. When I first heard Bob Marley, i was like 13 years old and I immediately loved him...the reggae beat, the meaningful words and I also loved how he looked, you know, the style! I could have said Cultura Profetica because of the beats but when I think of Bob and how he invented this reggae that I love so much, well it's a no brainer that he IS my favorite. Not long ago I watched a documental of his life and I fell even more in love. He became even more important to me because I could see how important he was to the world, especially his jamaican people, he literally united them in a time of crisis and frustration. I also look up to him and find him relevant because when he was little he was rejected by his people because he was half white, half black...and he never let that rule over him, I also find the rastafari movement really interesting and I saw (obviously in videos) how he suffered in the end, with his dreadlocks falling and that just showed me how committed he was to the movement and his beliefs. When I listen to his music I literally become relaxed (in a second) and get in the mood to meditate about my life and everything that surrounds me. I usually get a conscience about what's happening around and I become displeased sometimes. I never went to a concert because this man was already 10 years dead when I was born, but I'm really looking forward to going to one of Damien Marley, one of his many sons. www.bobmarley.com/ has information of his life and legacy. Also has information on new cd's remixed, contests to win stuff like a trip to Jamaica, has music, videos, photos, news, etc. Everything I expected and then some. User friendly. http://www.mtv.com/artists/bob-marley/ has some videos like his final performance, news, photos, interviews, and music. I didn't have a biography or awards, I expected that in a page of MTV. Overall it was good and very user-friendly. https://twitter.com/bobmarley Has famous quotes from Bob Marley, gives thanks to artists that collaborated in the remix and gives birthday congratulations to his family, has pictures and videos of performances. I liked every single one of those sites, they were very user friendly, I could see some videos of performances and get some quotes to live life by ;). It gave me all the info I expected and all the info I was looking for, there was nothing missing. I was expecting to find some quotes, the biography, videos, his discography, and fans posting, and that's exactly what I got. About Bob Marley...my favorite song is "Positive vibration" and I love the quote: "love the life you live, live the life you love", that I even have it as my cover photo in facebook. Some great lyrics from: "Could you be loved"... (just a fragment) Don't let them fool ya, Or even try to school ya! Oh, no! We've got a mind of our own, So go to hell if what you're thinking is not right! Love would never leave us alone, I am the darkness there must come out the light. Could you be love and be loved? Could you be love, wo now! - and be loved? (The road of life is rocky and you may stumble too, So while you point your fingers someone else is judging you) Love your brotherman! (Could you be - could you be - could you be love? Could you be - could you be love? Could you be - could you be - could you be love? Could you be - could you be love?) Don't let them change ya, oh! Or even rearrange ya! Oh, no! We've got a life to live. They say: only - only - Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive Stay alive! Eh! Other favorite artist is Eminem...he's my favorite rapper because he's the only one that sings meaningful things (comparing with famous rappers nowadays-not Tupac or other generation rap). I usually listen to his music, specially "Lose yourself", " Mockingbird" and "No love", when I have something important to do like a presentation or an interview that is really important for my life or career. I've been a fan since I first saw his movie "8 Mile". What moves me from his music are definitely the meaning of the lyrics, for me it's relevant because it lets everyone know that he had a shitty life but he worked his ass off and against all odds he made something of himself. Also he is not afraid of anything, he says whatever he wants and feels without caring what people think. He wrote songs to his daughter Hailie, so everyone can see how much he loves his daughter, and that's very inspirational for me! When I listen to his music I feel invincible, like I can achieve everything I want in life if I work enough for it. Unfortunately I have never been to a concert. http://www.allmusic.com/artist/eminem-mn0000157676/biography has the highlights, biography, discography, songs, awards, credits. This site, has everything a person can want to know about an artist, it is very user friendly, i liked it because it had everything I expected. It also had the official videos of the songs. In http://www.eminemworld.com/ I could find all the information about him (even about his tattoos), pictures, lyrics, videos, and all his songs. In http://www.eminem.com/ I could find his new single released just like a week ago. It also has the date of release for his next album (Nov. 5, 2013) and has a link to buy the new song. It doesn't have a any information of his life, basically just the new stuff he's releasing. Maybe I expected a little more for a page called "eminem" but i liked the simplicity and it is very user friendly. The next lyrics are from "Airplanes part II" by B.O.B. ft. Eminem Alright let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen Let's pretend things would have been no different Pretend he procrastinated, had no motivation Pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin they could blow away with the wind Marshall, you're never gonna make it makes no sense to play the game there ain't no way that you'll win Pretend he just stayed outside all day and played with his friends Pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend And it wasn't time to move and schools weren't changing again He wasn't socially awkward and just strange as a kid He had a father and his mother wasn't crazy as shit And he never dreamed he could rip stadiums and just lazy as shit Fuck a talent show in a gymnasium, bitch, you won't amount to shit quit daydreaming kid You need to get your cranium checked you thinking like an alien and just ain't realistic Now pretend they ain't just make him angry with this shit And there was no one he could even aim when he's pissed it And his alarm went off to wake him but he didn't make it to the Rap Olympics Slept through his plane and he missed it He's gon' have a hard time explaining to Hailie and Lainie these food stamps and this WIC shit Cause he never risked shit he hoped and he wished it but it didn't fall in his lap so he ain't even here He pretends that Airplanes in the night sky like shooting stars I could really use a wish right now wish right now wish right now Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now wish right now wish right now My third favorite artist is Pink. Since I remember I have listened to Pink's music, but it's not the same to hear something as a child and some years later when you can "really listen" the music and lyrics. I love her because she is this person who also had her parents divorced, who survived drug overdose as a teenager and who never changed who she really was just to "make it" in Hollywood, like she said in "Don't let me get me". For all of this I admire her and because she is very original, there's no doubt about that. What I like of her music are the lyrics, when I hear her music I get in different moods, it depends on what song I'm hearing. My favorites are "don't let me get me", "Mr. President", "Most girls", "F*cking perfect" and of course "Family Portrait". I also have never went to a concert...but someday soon I will. In http://www.people.com/people/pink/biography/0,,20192099,00.html I found a biography very general, but covers all the important points in her life and career. Main information, some news, and photos. Very user friendly and organized. There is nothing missing, it also says on the cover of the page "Happy Birthday Pink", because her birthday is in Sept. 8, it had everything I expected. I didn't expected music or videos in that page. In http://www.notablebiographies.com/newsmakers2/2004-Ko-Pr/Pink.html I found some biography but it's very short and general like her name, date of birth and parents name, but has an amazing and detailed biography on her career, it also mentions all the awards she has won. I would have preferred more abundance in the biography and son videos, but overall i liked it. Very user friendly. The other page I looked was http://www.pinkspage.com/us/forum/pnk-fan-club-invitation. It has news about her and her music, music, videos, store access, photos, comments by fans, information about the tour. It has everything I expected and more. It doesn't have a biography but I guess if you are a fan you already know her life. Very user friendly, colorful and with pictures of her in the background. This activity was great, made me focus on other things like music, instead of something wrong with the world. For me music really is a way of escaping reality and have some peace. I didn't really learn anything about my artists that I didn't already knew, I'm kind of a stalker of them in the internet so I'm always up to date. The only thing I found out was that Pink sells clothes, I had no idea. The internet is super important for artist because is an easy way to gain fans and to stay relevant. Also to release music and videos, gain views and therefore fans...that are after all the ones that make them famous. The internet can be detrimental too for an artist, some examples: the illegal free music download, if they post something bad it goes viral in seconds, their lives are exposed more easily and faster. The internet has it's ups and downs but it's something this generation can't live without.
Although I am a skinny person, it doesn't mean I don't eat a lot. On the contrary, I eat a lot but my metabolism works in my favor. I think it is because of my puerto rican culture that I am the way I am. I eat everything on my plate and we usually buy what is necessary and things with long expiration dates so' that we won't need to throw them away, because they turn bad.
I think everyone knows about the poverty in Africa, no clean waters despite the fact that the continent is crossed by several major rivers and contains some of the largest freshwater lakes in the world, and more than 18 million people across West Africa are in the grip of a growing hunger crisis. There are various organizations in which people can donate money like Africare, Save the Children and a lot more, but Africa it's pretty big and some organizations are just not capable of fixing these problems in all areas. With money, not necessarily time (because everyone can make some time when it's really worth it), I would create an organization: A new dawn for Africa. Focused mainly in getting food for EVERYONE, the motto will be "no one goes to bed hungry". How will I achieve what seems so impossible? Did you know that in "2010 an estimated 133 billion pounds of food from U.S. retail food stores, restaurants and homes never made it into people's stomachs? It's estimated that almost $390 per U.S. consumer in 2008 was left uneaten food in homes and restaurants" said U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Bob Perciasepe, acting administrator of the EPA. Also according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, americans typically throw out 21% of their food. Where does it all go? Well, some of it lost before it even makes it to consumers: fruit that's edible, but not quite pretty enough for stores; animals that get sick and can't be slaughtered, etc. Then there's the "ilussion of abundance" created by grocery stores. No store wants its shelves to ever appear to be empty, so they are constantly restocked with fresh alternatives that can never be sold fast enough to match the replacement rate. So there's people dying of hunger in different places in the world, including the United States but perfectly good food it's being thrown away because there is just a lot of food for the demand (at least in some countries)? What I would do with money AND CONNECTIONS (always come very handy) is buy fast transportation so' at the end of each day all that food being thrown away in different parts of the world can be picked up and sent to Africa, where I shall have camps with volunteers where people can go and get the food. Also I'm assuming my money will be so much that I will be able to put a correct sewage disposal system in all of Africa so' that they can actually use river water for drinking without getting AIDS or any other disease. I guess I am a BIG daydreamer too professor.

Kaya Scodelario Actors: Charlie Hunnam, Channing tatum -This is a docudrama, based on the life of Nina De Jesus, placed in beautiful Puerto Rico. In the mind of every person there’s another world, sometimes people go with the flow and they end up in a place of darkness and chaos. Nina De Jesus (Kaya Scodelario) was always an A straight student, then she went to the university, where she decided one summer that it was time to live life up, make some memories and spice things up. When a person who has a lot of pressure put to her and has her most loved person, her brother (Charlie Hunnam), in a really bad place in life, all hell breaks loose. The long nights, partys, booze, weed, and the party people around her became an escape from real life. But it’s important to remember that all that comes up, has to go down and viceversa. When a person is ready to rise from the ashes, nothing can stop her. But when Nina tries to change her life and look forward, a guy unavailable (Channing Tatum) for her appears in her life, messing with her mind and feelings for almost 3 years till he eventually does what he was supposed to do from the very beginning…leave. Leaving her with a decision, keep losing time obsessing about the "what if" or use this as a motivation to be the best she can be and prove to him and everyone what she really is made of.
