Star Wars' life style

When I watch films like Star Wars I wish I could have a life with a bit more of adventure. I guess mostly everyone has the same type of life: school, college, job and retirement. Otherwise the poor are not as lucky as we are and have to start working really young to be able to maintain their family.

But how would our life's be if we were born in Luke Skywalker's planet? Will any of us be brave enough to become a hero like he did? I think that the answer to this question is no. What do you think?

Music 09/17

Music is such an important thing for me. It changes my mood depending on what type of music I listen to. No matter what day of the week or what time in the day is, my "happy songs" playlist always makes me smile.  I should also say that I don't have a concrete music style. Depending on the day, I might like different things, but I'm not a fan of classic music though.

Actually last Saturday I went to a concert in The Backyard at Bee Cave (really cool place: http://thebackyard.net/2011/) The concert was of Passion Pit, an American electropop band from Massachusetts. It was the first time I listened to this music, and I really liked it! If you don't know them, you should listen to a couple of their songs!

 Today, I feel alone. I miss Spain like crazy. So I wanted to share with you a couple of song I've listening to while I was doing my homework. You will notice some of them are in Spanish, I'm sorry about that. But listen to them anyway, maybe you'll become a fan of Spanish music!

About me


Welcome to my blog!
 Here you will be able to read the life experiences of a 15 year old girl, me, Ines Ybañez. Currently living in Austin, Texas I was born in Madrid (Spain) where i´ve lived my whole life until September 2011, when I moved to Paris. I lived in the capital of France for almost 10 months. There, I stayed with my older sister Clara and her husband Arnaud. Moving to two different cities in different countries has been a huge change for me, good in most ways, but also bad in others.

About me, you should now a couple of things. I am a teenager who has been taken away from what she loved more, Madrid and her friends. Obviously, I´ve made really good friends in the last year but it is still not the same. So much changing has made me “mature” in some ways I guess.

Changing the subject, I would like to talk to you about my skills and hobbies (just so you get to know me better.) In sports, I like volleyball and in the summer I surf too. Fashion is one of my hobbies, reading magazines, going shopping or even drawing some sketches. I hope that you find interesting what I write in this blog, because that is what I write for, to entertain you with my stories and interests. Thank you for reading
