The Praying Mantis

I'm going to talk about one of my favorite animals, in that case, it's an insect: The Praying Mantis (or santateresa), it has this name because of the typical "prayer-like" stance.

It is usually 5–7.5 cm -who was introduce to America in 1899-,  it has two big compound eyes and three simple eyes between them. His front legs, which it supports withdrawals before the head, are provided with thorns to hold to his dams.

I like this insect because, when I see it for the first time, in "Karate Kid" the movie, Mr. Miyagi teach to Dani San that the Praying Mantis was a very good, calm, and intelligent animal, so he told him to follow its exemple. At the first Dani San thought that Mr. Miyagi was a freak and a crazy teacher. But with the passage of time he realice that the Prayer Mantis was very wise, and because it was a solitary animal who knows itself and can survive alone.

Of course I can have it at home, but I think that in any moment it can to escape to my garden, and I’m not really interested by having one!

It has a lot of freaks characteristics, one of them is that its head can turn even 180 º!!!!
What a freaaakk!!

BOLIVIA

HELLLOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

...I would like to go to Bolivia, because the people have told me that it’s the hemisphere’s highest, most isolated and most rugged nation. It boasts among the driest, saltiest and swampiest natural landscapes in the world. Although the poorest country in South America it’s also one of the richest in terms of natural resources. It’s also South America’s most indigenous country, with over 60% of the population claiming indigenous heritage, including Aymará, Quechua, Guaraní and over 30 other ethnic groups. Bolivia has it all…except, that is, for beaches.
This landlocked country boasts the soaring peaks of the Cordillera Real around Sorata and the hallucinogenic salt flats of Uyuni, the steamy jungles of the Amazon Basin and wildlife-rich grasslands of the Southeast. Unparalleled beauty is also reflected in its vibrant indigenous cultures, colonial cities such as Sucre and Potosí, and whispers of ancient civilizations. You have many opportunities for cultural and adventure activities and off-the-beaten-path exploration have exploded.
I think it’s really possible to go there because is not far of Chile and it’s a very sheap country, so you don’t need many money to survive there. I hope go there soon!!!

Beetlejuice

It’s very very very very difficult to me to choose one movie as my favorite film… there’re so many good movies in the world! 
But well, life is the life. I’m going to choose one that I think you all know and you all saw when you were kids, it’s called “Beetlejuice”.
This movie is an American comedy horror film, catalogued as horror film because it shows horrible, dark and disgusting things but of a funny, coarse and burlesque way.
It was filmed in 1988 and directed by Tim Burton, famous for quirky-themed movies such as this one. 
The film stars Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones, Sylvia Sidney, and Michael Keaton as the titular Betelgeuse (the film's title being a phonetic spelling of the character's name).
The plot revolves around a recently deceased young couple who become ghosts haunting their former home and an obnoxious, devious "bio-exorcist" named Betelgeuse from the underworld who tries to scare away the new inhabitants permanently.
I like this movie because the hero is an anti-hero, he’s horrible, degenerate, rude, dirty, disgusting, bad, etc. and he is very funny because he is all that you don’t have to be.
I like the film also for his aesthetics, his scenery and setting, because it shows a surrealist world whit many colors, with strange things and creative and original monsters.
