Blog N°4: "Agust D and some emotional songs"

-


I feel that through music many feelings, emotions, and messages can be expressed, with which one can feel identified. It is therefore on this occasion I will talk about songs that are very special and I consider that they have a very beautiful meaning for me.

The songs I chose belong to the rapper, composer, and producer "Agust D", the homonym of "Suga", a member of the South Korean group BTS.


Suga has two names artistic. When he releases solo music; he uses the name "Agust D". In her own words, this represents her alter ego, a "raw" artistic side that he has not been able to show as Suga. And the truth is that I do feel that his songs reflect that since he is a person who has gone through a lot in his life and it is in his two "mixtapes" where he reveals his deepest, darkest, personal, and human side. Not only counting all the sacrifices he has had to make to become an artist but also touching pathologies related to mental health such as depression, social anxiety, (issues that are still somewhat taboo in Korea) which the same rapper had to go through. As well as feelings related to frustration, social pressures to decide what to do with our lives, the loss of goals, dreams, or a way forward, are some of the themes that he touches in the lyrics of his songs. Allowing one to feel much closer and identified with since they reflect problems that often affect us at this stage of life, marked by the transition from adolescence to adulthood.

Both songs talk about dreams and the loss of a course, but from different perspectives.

The song "28" tells us about the difficulties of becoming an adult, especially when expectations of our dreams are not always fulfilled. It shows reality as it is, yet this song is a great company for those moments where it seems like nothing makes sense and us just live for live.

(I know the blog is in English but wanted to get the message across more easily)

On the other hand, "So far away" I consider is a song too emotional as much in its melody as in its meaning. His lyrics speak to us especially in those moments of uncertainty where we do not know what direction to take, or if the path we took was really the right one. Where we must decide what to do with our lives, however, not having a dream or the frustration of not knowing what to do is overwhelming. However, the lyrics have a hopeful message, since, despite all the uncertainty and social pressure that is exerted on young people at this stage of their life, there will always be a reason to move on and keep dreaming.




Well, that would be it, Thanks for reading my blog!!

BLOG N°6: Future Studies

Hi!! , in this last blog, I will talk about my studies after university or postgraduate courses that I would like to do in the future. If given the opportunity, I would like to continue my studies at the Institute of Public Affairs, as it offers courses that contribute to the learning of our career. Although I am currently studying Public Administration, among the postgraduate courses that the Institute (INAP) has, the most that interest me is the Master's in Political Science since this area has always caught my attention, so it would motivate me more to choose this path.  Throughout my career, I discovered that I like to study political theory, so it would be comfortable for me to develop in this magister (or so I hope), also, it has a short duration of two years, so it is very convenient. I believe that studying a postgraduate degree helps a lot to generate more knowledge and have the necessary tools of better face the gloomy panorama of the labor field :') Well, since...

BLOG N°2: The best holidays I have had

The most memorable vacation I've ever had was in the summer of 2010 when I was ten years old. Travel with my mother and my older sister and we went to Chauchil town belonging to the commune of Hualaihue, in the Region of the Lakes. The journey lasted most of the night. It took us thirteen hours by bus to get to Puerto Montt and then we had to take another bus, which took two hours, to get to Chauchil. In a part of the journey to Chauchil, the bus had to embark since it is easier to get there by sea than by land. It was the first time I had traveled that far and the first time I got on a boat. If the trip itself was already special, those vacations were the best because it was the first time that I met my mother's family. It was the first time I met my grandfather, my grandmother, all my cousins, my uncles, my aunts :D   it was very emotional   Although it was only two weeks, those days were the best. I remember that we went to the beach, we bathed in the sea, in the rive...
