SING – My Chemical Romance!!

Sing it out

Boy you've got to see what tomorrow brings

Sing it out

Girl you've got to be what tomorrow needs

For every time that they want to count you out

Use your voice every single time you open up your mouth

Sing it for the boys, sing it for the girls

Every time that you lose it sing it for the world

Sing it from the heart

Sing it 'til you're nuts

Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts

Sing it for the deaf

Sing it for the blind

Sing about everyone that you left behind

Sing it for the world, sing it for the world

Sing it out

Boy they're gonna sell what tomorrow means

Sing it out

Girl before they kill what tomorrow brings

You've got to, make a choice if the music drowns you out

And raise your voice every single time they try and shut your mouth

Sing it for the boys, sing it for the girls

Every time that you lose it sing it for the world

Sing it from the heart

Sing it 'til you're nuts

Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts

Sing it for the deaf

Sing it for the blind

Sing about everyone that you left behind

Sing it for the world, sing it for the world

Cleaned up, corporation progress

Dying in the process

Children that can talk about it

Living on the railways

People moving sideways

Sell it 'til your last days

Buy yourself the motivation

Generation nothing,

Nothing but a dead scene

Product of a white dream

I am not the singer that you wanted, but a dancer

I refuse to answer, talk about the past

And rooting for the ones that want to get away.

Keep running

Sing it for the boys, sing it for the girls

Every time that you lose it sing it for the world

Sing it from the heart

Sing it 'til you're nuts

Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts

Sing it for the deaf

Sing it for the blind

Sing about everyone that you left behind

Sing it for the world, sing it for the world

We've got to see what tomorrow brings

Sing it for the world

Sing it for the world

Yeah, you got to be what tomorrow needs

Sing it for the world

Sing it for the world

I love this band. I love how powerful this song is! 

My favorite lyrics so far:

"Sing it from the heart, Sing it till you're nuts, Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts!"

It says to me: Sing it in your heart and even if people think you're crazy sing. And even if people hate you, sing especially because of them!

"Sing it for the deaf, Sing it for the blind, Sing about everyone that you left behind!"

It’s about standing up for those who can't. Even if that means you lose your life, you stand up for those who can't defend themselves. Be like a hero in their eyes.

In general, the song it’s pretty much saying to stand up for yourself that no one can hold you down. You have to believe in yourself and use your voice to make a difference.

Oh yeah…

"And raise your voice every single time they try to shut your mouth."

Brilliant.

Last holiday!

My last holiday was in the Holy Week. My family and I went to Tocaima, Cundinamarca. We were there a couple of years ago and we had and great time so we decided to visit again.
We spend the week in a comfortable hotel; people were really nice to us.
The weather was crazy hot, even though I don’t like sunny days, there was the exception because we had a big pool. I love swimming.
We visited the center of the small city at night, almost every night. We could appreciate a beautiful moon.
It was a great vacation, with the people I love. Wonderful memories.

Horoscope.

Aries: Instead of trying to make anything happen right away, be patient, even if you don't make noticeable progress. There's no reason to force your agenda. 

Taurus: Even if you are already thinking ahead, slow down today or your frustration will soon outweigh your enthusiasm.

Gemini: Go easy on yourself if you don't yet want to share what's on your mind. A little introspection is just what you need at this time.

Cancer: At first you may lose interest in anything you start today, but it's just that your mind is on too many things at once.

Leo: It's still a smart idea to keep an eye on your workmates because someone might try to steal your thunder when you're not looking.

Virgo: Avoid the negative consequences of a hasty decision by putting it off for a few days. Timing is everything.

Libra: It will be easier to choose your selection once you realize that it doesn't have to be your final answer.

Scorpio: Establishing shared goals is ultimately better for everyone involved.

Sagittarius: It's surprising how much a bit of support boosts your confidence and enables you to push along toward a goal.

Capricorn: Even if circumstances feel restrictive now, complete one job before beginning another.

Aquarius: You feel alive and refreshed, ready to make good use of all the ideas that are coming your way. 

Pisces: You want to believe that all is well, yet you aren't surprised if you run into a serious obstacle today. You're unwilling to take no for an answer and could work extra hard to overcome any problems that surface now. Unfortunately, your desire to reach your destination may not be enough to guarantee success. Consider relaxing your timetable or changing your agenda. Being flexible is your secret weapons ... don’t be afraid to use it.

What to wear in Colombia?!.

Hey! If you’re coming to my country let me give you some advices about clothes and stuff. In Bogotá, the weather is crazy (I love it) so we don’t know what kind of weather we will have. You can wear dresses and shorts but with leggings or tights, because sometimes it's rainy and sometimes it's too cold so you can wear boots, sneakers..

You know, just dress casually, I’m talking about jeans, t-shirts and sneakers. Don’t wear summer clothes like sandals, flip-flops and shorts, especially in Bogotá. It will be funny because It's like yelling "I'm a tourist!". Shorts are fine in the Caribbean or the Pacific Coast... but not for Bogota or cities in the Andean region.

Umh. Just relax and have fun!!!!
