Reto Mensual (Enero 2013)

Este año, al empezar, me propuse, por primera vez, llevar una lista con los libros que voy leyendo (y, sí, esto para mí, con lo desastre que soy, es todo un reto), más que nada por curiosidad, por saber cuántos leo al año (aproximadamente).

Bueno, ésta es la lista de Enero (las fechas son en las que me acabé el libro en cuestión), lista que no he subido antes por problemas de tiempo.

001. [Ene-01] - ¡Gol! #1: Un gran equipo, Luigi Garlando (05/01)
002. [Ene-02] - Pandora Hearts #1, Jun Mochizuki (05/01)
003. [Ene-03] - Pandora Hearts #2, Jun Mochizuki (05/01)
004. [Ene-04] - Pandora Hearts #3, Jun Mochizuki (05/01)
005. [Ene-05] - Berserk #10, Kentaro Miura (06/01)
006. [Ene-06] - En tiempos de druidas, Kelly Dreams (07/01)
007. [Ene-07] - Trono de cristal, Sarah J. Maas (15/01)

No es mucho, pero es que, justo después de Navidades, tuve que empezar con los exámenes y, hasta que no acabaron no volví a leer (me conozco).

También tengo unas cuantas reseñas por subir, y pronto las veréis. De estos siete libros sólo voy a reseñar los dos últimos. El primero es de mi primo y, los otros cuatro, son mangas prestados por mi ahijado, Ankios.

Canciones por aquí... (VI)

Esta vez os dejo con... Sum 41. A ver qué os parecen The Hell Song, Underclass Hero, Pieces y Screaming Bloody Murder.

The Hell Song

Everybody's got their problems, 

Everybody says the same thing to you. 

It's just a matter of how you solve them, 

And knowing how to change the things you've been through. 

I feel I've come to realize, 

How fast life can be compromised. 

Step back to see what's going on, 

I can't believe this happened to you. 

This happened to you. 

It's just a problem that we're faced with, am I 

Not the only one who hates to stand by. 

Complications ended first in this line, 

With all these pictures running through my mind. 

Knowing endless consequences, 

I feel so useless in this. 

Get back, step back, and as for me, 

I can't believe. 

Part of me, won't agree, 

Cause I don't know if it's for sure. 

Suddenly, suddenly 

I don't feel so insecure. 

Part of me, won't agree, 

Cause I don't know if it's for sure. 

Suddenly, suddenly 

I don't feel so insecure. 

Anymore 

So 

Everybody's got their problems, 

Everybody says the same thing to you. 

It's just a matter of how you solve them, 

What else are we supposed to do? 

Part of me, won't agree, 

Cause I don't know if it's for sure. 

Suddenly, suddenly 

I don't feel so insecure. 

Part of me, won't agree, 

Cause I don't know if it's for sure. 

Suddenly, suddenly 

I don't feel so insecure. 

Anymore 

Why do things that matter the most, 

Never end up being what we chose. 

(Anymore) 

Now that I find no way so bad, 

I don't think I knew what I had. 

(Anymore) 

Why do things that matter the most, 

Never end up being what we chose. 

(Anymore) 

Now that I find no way so bad, 

I don't think I knew what I had.

Underclass Hero

1, 2, 3, 4

Well I won't be caught living in a dead end job

While praying to a government, guns and gods

Now it’s us against them, we're here to represent

And spit right in the face of the establishment

And now I don't believe, ain't got faith in nothing

Stand on my own, ain't got sympathy

Wasting the youth, while being young and useless

Speak for yourself and don't pray for me

Well because we're doing fine and we don't need to be told

That we're doing fine ‘cause we won't give you control

And we don't need anything from you

‘Cause we'll be just fine and we won't be bought and sold just like you

(A call across the underclass)

Calling out loud with no respect

I'm not the one just another reject

I'm the voice to offend all those who pretend

Unsung against the grain, I'm here to rise against

Now I'm desensitized, I state my place in nowhere

Burning the flag of the generation

Everyone sing the anthem of no future

Down with the mass 'cause we're not listening

Well, because we're doing fine and we don't need to be told

That we're doing fine ‘cause we won't give you control

And we don't need anything from you

‘Cause we'll be just fine and we won't be bought and sold just like you

May I have your attention please?

I pledge allegiance to the underclass as your hero at large

1, 2, 3, 4

We're the saints of degeneration

We don’t owe anyone an explanation

Fuck elitists, we don’t need this

We’re the elite of 'just alright'

And well, because we're doing fine and we don't need to be told

That we're doing fine ‘cause we won't give you control

And we don't need anything from you

‘Cause we'll be just fine and we won't be bought and sold just like you

Pieces

I tried to be perfect, 

But nothing was worth it, 

I don't believe it makes me real. 

I thought it'd be easy, 

But no one believes me, 

I meant all the things I said. 

If you believe it's in my soul, 

I'd say all the words that I know, 

Just to see if it would show, 

That I'm trying to let you know, 

That I'm better off on my own. 

This place is so empty, 

My thoughts are so tempting, 

I don't know how it got so bad. 

Sometimes it's so crazy, 

That nothing can save me, 

But it's the only thing that I have. 

If you believe it's in my soul, 

I'd say all the words that I know, 

Just to see if it would show, 

That I'm trying to let you know, 

That I'm better off on my own. 

On my own 

I tried to be perfect, 

It just wasn't worth it, 

Nothing could ever be so wrong. 

It's hard to believe me, 

It never gets easy, 

I guess I knew that all along. 

If you believe it's in my soul, 

I'd say all the words that I know, 

Just to see if it would show, 

That I'm trying to let you know, 

That I'm better off on my own.

Screaming Bloody Murder

I'm not quite myself these days

Guess we all come undone time to time in different ways

Well, I have myself to blame

Guess I don't understand I need help in many ways

God's got a plan for me

Well, I'm gonna tell you one thing

I don't got the patience or the time

What can I say? I'm no angel

I'm not forsaken but I can bleed

Tear me open, I believe

God will set you up to bleed

And no one can deceive what is meant to be

And "Bloody murder" we will scream

Well, I guess it's time for me

Tell me what I'm left to believe in

'Cause I don't know the concept of the pain

I don't want the faith, I'll just lose it

I can prove it, watch me bleed

Tear me open, I believe

God will set you up to bleed

And no one can deceive what is meant to be

And "Bloody murder" we will scream

God will set you up to tear me open

'Cause I'm not giving up, no self-control

Suffocated to the bone

I'm my worst enemy who can't be saved

I'm just his disgrace

Tear me open, I believe

God will set you up to bleed

And no one can deceive what is meant to be

And "Bloody murder" we will scream

God will set you up to tear me open

These days are strange, it's true

There's not a thing that I would change

No mistakes that I'd undo

Bueno, ¿alguna opinión que compartir?

Huida de la biblioteca (II)

En episodios anteriores...

En la primera entrega de esta sección os preguntaba de qué libro habían salido estas orejitas.

Hubo tres respuestas, todas referidas al mismo libro, aunque a dos personajes distintos. Pues bien, las orejas son de un disfraz del gato de Chesire, por lo tanto el libro que buscábamos era Alicia en el País de las Maravillas o Alicia a través del espejo, ambos de Lewis Carroll. Estos libros son de los que ha salido originalmente, pero no creo que fuesen la única solución posible...

PD: el otro personaje discutido era el conejo blanco, pero, que yo sepa, sus orejas eran del mismo color que el resto del cuerpo.

Capítulo 2

El capítulo de hoy trata sobre una tortuga fugitiva que ha de volver a su libro... ¿cuál es?

Soy consciente de que esta vez las opciones son muchísimas más... a ver cuántos libros con tortugas nos salen.

¡Imaginación al poder!
