Halloween
Today is a special date! Is Halloween! Time to use your better costume and scare the people.
Halloween is an annual celebration who actually consist principally in go out with a costume who scare and the kids ask for candies. But this date has a story, a beginning and are many options coming from different places in the world.  Today I will talk about the ''witch hunting''.  This phenomenon was characteristic of Europe and consisted of the massive chase of women accused of witches for the church and the ''civil justice''.
The witches were women who have control of natality, her sexuality, and knowledge about abortive methods and principally owner of her bodies.
In that epoch, the country has in a period of transition to capitalism, and for that, the industry needs a workforce and Europe passed for a diminution of the population because of the black plague. For that reason the witch hunting it was an excuse to suppress the women to the reproductive functions. And the women who were killed aren't witches, they were killed only for the reason of being women with the capacity of being actors of the civil society and considering the secondary and weak sex. The witch hunting was the reflection of the fear about the woman power.
Today we are not hunting (literally) like in that period of time and for that reason, we have to still fight for our rights and do honor to these women. -''Somos las nietas de las brujas que no pudiste quemar''- .

Free time

For now I don't have much free time because of the university but I hope so much have it soon, I count the day for holidays... I am not a person who likes a lot physical activities, I really don't practice any sport or activity, I'm more a passive person, but not for that I like stay in my home, I prefer to go out to a park or visit different places, depends of the day too. Sometimes I like stay in my home watching a movie or a serie, I want a pending list of them for watch.  I like to cook too and learn new recipes.  Another activity that I like to do is painting with watercolor or acrylic paint and express my creativity and try new techniques but it´s not something that I usually do. This summer I pretend learn to playing the ukulele because I have one some time ago and I don't know playing yet. All depends about my mood, because some days I only want to stay in my bed -very lazy-.

about the food

Everybody talks about how to save the planet, everyone says that  you have to recycle, care about the water and critics the industries and the pollution, but nobody talks about the impact of the ranching on our planet. The last weekend I see in Netflix a documental about that called "Cowspiracy'' and is about how the meat industry contaminates a lot the earth. This is a theme very interesting to me because I think to eat animals that you love is very cruel and a lot of people don't know how that's effects in the air, the water, and the ground.  If you want to know more about that I recommended you see this documentary. I don't pretend you became vegan after that but I think you have to know how damage you do in the environment and about the more strength destructive in the planet. For example, one hamburger that you eat contaminates 2000 lt of water approximately, that equivalates to your shower for three months and contaminates more than a tru...
