London Underground..




Ya empezo la primavera y los mosquitos acechan, el calor, no puedo decir que infernal, pero si humedo y pegajoso, La semana pasada despedimos a Heather Kingdom, ella es de Londres, U.K. Se devuelve para Inglaterra a trabajar con Saskia Hogenhout, asi que antes de irse nos dio una pequeña introduccion al metro de londres, esto, en el sotano de uno de los apartamentos de la U, donde el calor humedo, la oscuridad, el dibujo de un tunel y un tren en la pared junto con una un Proyector de imagenes pasamos un rato chevere viendo las diapositivas de Heather, quien no quisiera estar de vacaciones?, tener plata? o peor aun, tener tiempo para cruzar el charco y darse la rodadita por Londres Underground....

WHY ENVY?

if somebody ever told you "I envy you", you need to know:

Envy is an emotion that "occurs when a person lacks another’s superior quality, achievement, or possession and either desires it or wishes that the other lacked it."[1] At the core of envy seems to be an upward social comparison that threatens a person's self-esteem: another person has something that the envier considers to be important to have. However, what is envied could also be something that is only of personal importance to the envier, even if what the other person has is of little significance in his or her society, or even seen as a sign of inferior status. If the other person is perceived to be similar to the envier, the aroused envy will be particularly intense, because it signals to the envier that it just as well could have been him or her who had the desired object. [2][3].

AND.. Envy (Invidia) is one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Corinne Bailey Rae- Put Your Records On

My favorite new artist, perhap it's because she is from UK, but Corinne Bailey Rae brings a new source of energy, fresh real good music to the scene, perfect when you are writing or studying at midnight.
