Cultural Shock

A culture shock from psychology it could understand as a process in wich a person or a group of people  interact, knows and incorporates practices from a different culture, in which exist behaviour and ways of communicating, that are specific to that group of people. In a principle is difficult accustomed these practices different, generate in the person feeling of distress and suffering. 

The change from my school at my high school, involved a important shock for me, because had opposing cultures between them. My school to a very simple, one might say that was humble in that sense, there was a family atmosphere between all members of the college and also there was much diversity of people who came from different towns and countries, with which one was related and learning about other cultures, even I had a friend who was ¨mapuche¨. However in my high school was completely different practices, had many children who could be considered ¨cuicos¨, had little fellowship and were discriminate with other persons different they, there was not much diversity of people from other cultures and if came of other culture was judged and discriminate.

It cost me the adjust to this new school and I do not know if it sicceeds, because was not in accordance with ways of behaving, because for me it is important to be tolerant and learn from other cultures, that expands our knowledge and experience in life.

Concert

One of the last concerts I really enjoyed was ¨Calle 13¨. They were March 14 at the ¨Santa Laura¨ stadium. I really like this puertorican band, that mixes different musical styles with lyrics in rap form. Is headed by Rene Perez Joglar  known as ¨Residente¨ and his stepbrother Eduardo Cabra known as ¨Visitante¨.

The concert was part of the tour they were doing because of the new album they took called ¨multiviral¨, their openers were ¨Chico Trujillo¨ and Manuel García.

The stadium was full of people of all ages, even had families enjoying the concert. They sang some songs from his new album, but the vast majority were songs from their previous albums.

A moment very  nice, awesome and exciting that occurred was when everyone illuminated the stadium with their cell phones, for the liberty of puertorican Oscar López Rivera, a political prisoner in the United States.

Other moment that was a little funny, was when ¨Residente¨ ask  if the people who were in the building near the stadium was listening and said that if the answer was whether, then that turn off and turn on the lights and the lights in the building went turn off and turn on.

I really enjoyed the concert, was a night amazing, exciting and surprising, where people from the public also were part of that unforgettable moment.
