Jack Black, the comedy musician


Jack Black is an actor who participate in a lot of movies and tv series. He was born in Santa Mónica, in August 28 of 1969. He grew up jew, because his mother is from that religion. His parents divorced when he was ten yeas, so he had a lot of troubles to find a school.

He studied drama in the University of California, where he meet his loyal friend, Kyle Gass. Then he started to participate in some movies as an extra. He also participated in tv series as well. His career grew when he started to participate in the movies as the principal character.

In the 2006, he made his own movie called "Tenacious D", as himself as a character. There he tell the story of the creation of his band called "Tenacious D" as well. His friend Kyle Gass is in the movie too. They use to make gags together.

I like him, because he defend the heavy metal. He use to joke about it, but he always make me laugh. He also made a videogame, called "Brutal Legends", where he perform a band manager who travels to the heavy metal land. That's insane, but well, he made it.

Some videos of him:

those memories that I'll never see again

The city that I like the most is Concepción. But well, the problem is that I'm talking about the old Concepción, cause you know, the earthquake and those things.

Anyways, the city is in the south, located in the eighth region of this country. Well there are all the facilities that a city must have. But I like one in particular. It's the famous "Fuente alemana" (German Fountan, literally ja ja). there are a lot of sandwiches like the "Churrasco" and the "lomito" (Try to pronounce thoses in english ja ja).

Well, there is the University of Concepción (A big and fine place to study if I may say that). But that's the only place to visit. I would like more parks or maybe a tematic parks (dreaming is free).

At home...

Well, I was at home, playing in the computer (yes, I know, I'm an adict) when I felt a deep and little sound coming from the ground. When you live here in Chile, you learn to hear the ground, so you could know when a seismic movement will come.

I thought: "It will be a soft movement, nothing to worry about". But I was completly wrong. When the movement released its fury upon us, I run through the house and I stood below the door's frame. Then I thought "damm it, I have to look after my parents". But when I saw towards the stairs, I saw my dad with my mom coming down.

At the end we held under the door's frame during all the earthquake. Then the electricity went down and we had no comunication. Luckly we could call my grandma who lives in Constitución.

Four days later, We went to see my grandma in Constitución. There was a lot of destruction and misery. An uncle of mine lost his house, so we went to lend a hand.

Yeah, it is sad, and the lesson is... Don't forget the power of the nature if you want to stay alive.

Something strange

Well, I don't know how to start this. My name is Javier Chamorro, I'm 20 years old. I'm studing journalism in the Image and Comunication Institute (I hope that I translate it well) of the University of Chile. Anyway, I didn't want to study that because my preference was cinema. By the way, I'm right here, in front of this computer and writing this introduction of myself.

When I was in the high school, I used to go to a british institute that was near to my home. There, I learn a lot but I refuse to continue because I enter to the University. So I think that I lost a lot of my vocabulary, pronounciation and compression of the languaje. So I make the decision to re-take english and finish it.

Thats why I think that this situation is something strange. Because I have to re-learn those things that I forget, and then, learn new things that could help me in the process. In any case, I think that I'm prepared.

PD: I like the metal music, the cinema, the photography and the videogames. I'm a little nerd guy.
