Who am I?

Imagen
  I’m Vicente Arenas Toro, I’m 21 years old. I was born on the 21st of February of 2001 in Santiago, I’m currently living in Pudahuel near the route 68, but for a long time I lived in Santiago Centro near the metro station “Cumming”. I live with my parents, Rodrigo and Mariela, also I have two brothers and I'm the eldest.  With my middle brother and my best friend, Eduardo and Benjamin, we have a Psychedelic Rock band, Eduardo plays the drums, Benjamin the bass and I play the guitar. In February of this Year we put out a Record called “¿Qué hace un lagarto con sombrero?”  It lasts about 45 minutes. It's on Spotify if you wanna give it a listen.

Why did I choose my major?

  When I was a child I always wanted to be a paleontologist because of the movie Jurassic Park, when I grew up and I was 13 years old I decided to study History or Archeology to be a teacher because I watched the four Indiana Jones movies, suddenly when I was 16 I release that all of my life I wanted to be something because of a movie so I decided to be a Filmmaker, at first was horrible to try to tell my dad that I wanted to study Film, he refused all the time even my uncle until this day believes that I made a bad choice, however my mom helped with this and made my dad thinks that it was the right choice. And after all these years studying I think it is the best choice I could have made.

I love listen to music in all type of formats likes vinyl, cassettes, Cds, Spotify, even I use youtube music, for me listen to music is like watching a movie, I got my own ritual, where I close the door of my room, light a cigarette and choose the right album to listen, some people  would say I'm a music lover but I consider myself more like an audiophile because I enjoy music only if  i'm using the right device, in this case my music deck system which consist in a yamaha receiver, a cassette player, a turntable a Cd player and obviously my pair of JBL stereo speakers. I think that with the invention of the personal stereo and later the music streaming we got the idea of listening to music while doing something, however I think that listen to music like if was the main focus of attention is a really pleasant activity that I would recommend to anyone.
