It's been a while since I posted something. Happy 2023! 

I recently watched The Glory and am currently watching My Name on Netflix. They are similar because both of the lead characters are seeking revenge. 

It got me thinking.

Since two wrongs don't make a right, should we always be the bigger person and show mercy?

To forgive and forget?
To forgive but never forget?

Or

An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

Is there a limit to what we can put up with as humans? What do we do if someone crosses that line?

It was fascinating and I am enjoying My Name so far. I will watch the final episode tonight and post my thoughts after that. 

(A little disclaimer: they are both disturbing so do not watch either of them if the nature of the show is something you are sensitive to.)

"The Glory": A K-Drama About Revenge!

▼スクリプト
みんなは視力（しりょく）どれぐらいある？私は目が悪くて、コンタクトをつけてるんだけど、パソコンするときは目が乾燥（かんそう）しちゃうから、めがね使ってるんだよね。でも、ずっとパソコンしてるとほんと目がヤバくなってくるから、この前ブルーライトカットのめがねを買いに行ったの。

How good is your eyesight? I have bad eyesight, so I wear contacts, but when I use the computer, my eyes get dry, so I use glasses. But my eyes get really bad when I'm on the computer all the time, so the other day I went to buy a pair of blue light-cut glasses.

日本のめがねの値段（ねだん）はピンキリなんだけど、安いのは10000円くらいから買えるよ。有名なお店は「J!NS」とか「Zoff」とか「めがね市場」かなぁ。私は今までずっと「J!NS」で買ってたんだけど、かわいいフレームがあったから今回は「めがね市場」で買ったんだよね。

Prices for glasses in Japan vary widely, but you can buy inexpensive ones for as little as 10,000 yen. I think the most famous stores are "J!NS", "Zoff", and "Megane Ichiba". I used to buy my glasses at "J!NS", but this time I bought them at "Megane Ichiba" because they had cute frames.

レンズのオプションもいろいろあって、ブルーライトカットはもちろんなんだけど、スマホを見るとき目を楽にするレンズとか、抗菌（こうきん）レンズとかいろいろあってびっくりしちゃった。

I was surprised at the variety of lens options available, including blue-light-cut lenses, lenses that make it easier for me to look at my phone, and antibacterial lenses.

視力検査（けんさ）もめがね屋さんでするんだけど、右目も左目も「0.05」ずつしかなかったからショックだった…。あと、少し右目が乱視（らんし）って言われたから、レンズは特注（とくちゅう）になって1週間後に出来上がって取りに行ったよ。もし日本でめがねを作ることがあったら、時間に余裕をもってつくったほうがいいよ。

I also had my eyesight tested at the optometrist's, and I was shocked to see that it was only 0.05 vision each for my right and left eyes.... I was also told that I had a little astigmatism in my right eye, so the lenses were special ordered and I went to pick them up a week after they were made.If you have to get glasses made in Japan, you should make them well in advance.

ちなみに、この前、子供の視力が悪くなってるってテレビで言ってたんだよね。1.0未満の子どもは高校生で63％らしいよ。たしかに私も高校生のときからコンタクトしてるなぁって思った。いつかレーシックもしてみたい！

By the way, I heard on TV the other day that children's eyesight is getting worse: 63% of high school students have less than 1.0 vision. I have been wearing contacts since I was in high school. I'd like to have LASIK someday!

2 things you should know about "Taxi Driver"

In this chapter divided in 2 parts I will relate an experience where I do "hitchhiking" but with a boat, that's why "barcostop" ( It's different to Autostop) . It is set in the "second summer" of 2020, in the famous Argentinian Patagonia, specifically in a town called "Villa La Angostura", a paradisiacal place. 

important locations to guide the listener :
Lago ( Lake ) 
Villa La Angostura ( Place located in the Patagonian Andes )

بَدَأ عَصْر الإِنْتَرْنِت بالسِّتِينَات أو السَبْعِينَات خِلَال الحَرْب البَارِدَة بَين رُوسْيَا وأمْرِيكَا.
طَبعًا بَدَأ فِي الجَيش الأَمْرِيكِي وكَان الهَدَف هو التَوَاصُل مَع السَفَارَات.
بِشَكِل عَام, الإِخْتِرَاعَات أول شِي تَبْدَأ بِالجَيش وبَعْدَين تَنْتَقِل إِلى النَاس.
بِالثَمَانِينَات الإِنْتَرْنِت صَار مَسْمُوح بَين النَاس.
وبِالتِسْعِينَات إِنْتَشَر الإنترنت وصَار كَثِير نَاس يِسْتَخْدِمُوه.
وبِبِدَايَة القَرْن الحَالِي الإِنْتَرْنِت وَصَل أَغْلَب البِلَاد تَقْرِيبًا.
حَالِيًا, الإِنْتَرْنِت صَار مَوجُود فِي كُل بَيت ومُهِم جِدًا للحَيَاة اليَومِيَة.
وبَعَد كورُونَا كَثِير نَاس صَارُوا يِسْتَخْدِمُوه عَشَان الشُغُل.
وتَقْرِيبًا الإِسْتِغْنَاء عن الإِنْتَرْنِت صَار مُسْتَحِيل.

Mi nueva casa

En este episodio te explico qué es lo que los españoles llamamos la cuesta de enero.  Enero normalmente es un mes difícil. Después de la alegría de las fiestas de Navidad, las comidas y los regalos, toca volver a la realidad, y empezamos a pensar en el dinero que hemos gastado, en los propósitos que no estamos cumpliendo y en las rebajas.
