Cinderella was one of those bands that marked my adolescence in a unique way. Their mix of hard rock and glam metal captivated me from the first moment I heard them. The electric guitars, the rebellious attitude and Tom Keifer's voice, transported me to a time when anything seemed possible. Every time I listened to songs like "Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)" or "Somebody Save Me," I felt that their music reflected my own emotional world: inner struggles, desires for freedom and a great passion for life. The band not only energized me, it taught me not to be afraid to be myself, to embrace my authenticity and to live every moment as if it were my last.

Furthermore, Cinderella's influence was not just limited to music, but to an important part of my personality. During my adolescence, when I was looking to fit in and find myself, their lyrics offered me a refuge, I identified with their stories of heartbreak and overcoming, and each album became a kind of musical diary that accompanied my emotional highs and lows. Even today, every time I listen to their songs, I feel like I'm reliving that stage of my life, and it reminds me how important it is to stay passionate about what you love, no matter what the world thinks.

Judas Priest for me, is a fundamental part of my life. Ever since I discovered them, I felt that their electric guitars and raspy vocals spoke directly to my heart. There is something about their sound that not only awakens my energy, but also gives me a sense of belonging. It's as if their lyrics understood me, as if each guitar riff spoke to me about my inner struggles, my dreams and my fears. Each song, a perfect blend of aggression and melancholy, makes me feel alive in a way that few other things do. Judas Priest has been there for me in the most difficult moments, giving me a kind of refuge and a push to keep going.

Judas Priest's legacy is something that transcends generations, but for me it has an even deeper personal value. Their music connects me to a part of myself that sometimes I can't put into words. When I listen to "Breaking the Law" or "Painkiller", I feel like everything that weighs me down or limits me disappears for a moment. It's a catharsis, an outlet. Every time I listen to them, I am transported to a state of mind where everything is possible, and I feel invincible. That feeling of freedom they transmit is incomparable, and makes me realize how lucky I am to have found them, to let myself be carried away by their energy.

Queen is one of those bands that not only transcend genres, but create an indelible legacy with every chord, every lyric. From the moment I first heard Bohemian Rhapsody, I knew that my musical life would never be the same again. Freddie Mercury has something almost mystical about him, a unique energy that can't be found anywhere else. It is impossible not to surrender to his unparalleled talent and that combination of rock with theatrical touches that completely envelop you. In addition, Brian May's guitars have such an unmistakable sound, as if the strings themselves were screaming in every solo, and the rhythm base of Roger Taylor and John Deacon holds everything with an impressive style

What gets me most about Queen is that, beyond their music, there is something deeply rebellious yet elegant about their style. Sometimes I feel like a cross between the dynamism of Don't Stop Me Now and the sweetness of Somebody to Love. That fusion of rock, theatrics and elegance inspires me, makes me feel like I can be anything I want to be. I like them not only for what I listen to, but for how their music makes me feel, for that touch of freedom, rebellion and, of course, a bit of flirtation.

Creating different hairstyles is not only fun, but it also allows you to play with your style and draw attention to yourself in an attractive way. A change of look with a different hairstyle can make you feel more confident and comfortable, as well as show off your personality in a visual way.

From soft waves for a relaxed and elegant touch, to a sophisticated updo for a special occasion, every hairstyle has the power to transform your appearance. By varying your hairstyle according to the moment, you can project an interesting, dynamic and versatile image, which always attracts attention and makes you stand out from the crowd.

Pink Floyd is a band that connects me deeply with my most introspective thoughts and emotions. Their music has a unique ability to transport me to other worlds, with complex sounds and thought-provoking atmospheres. Albums like The Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here are more than just songs; they are listening experiences that explore universal themes such as existence, madness and alienation. The lyrics, often philosophical and poetic, manage to speak to the human condition in a way that few bands do, creating a sense that there is something beyond the surface of everyday life.

What appeals to me most about Pink Floyd is how they manage to combine musical innovation with pure emotion. Their experiments with sound, such as psychedelic effects and sonic textures, make every listen a new experience. I like how each album has its own sonic journey, but at the same time maintains a unique identity that makes their entire catalog coherent. The way they tackle such deep and sometimes dark themes, but with such clear beauty, makes Pink Floyd become not just a band, but a way of seeing and feeling the world.

The body becomes a language without words, a bold statement of who you are. Every step, every turn, is a way of claiming yourself, of embracing who you are in that moment, without judgment or doubt. It is like a hug to the soul, a reminder that confidence does not come from perfection, but from the authenticity with which you show yourself to the world.

And in that surrender, in that wild and sensual dance, the body feels vibrating, expanding, becoming a refuge. It is not only the exercise, but the feeling of owning every movement, every contour. Dancing makes you feel powerful, sexy, able to seduce not only others, but yourself. Confidence grows with every step, because dancing, in a way, you undress without clothes, showing your true nature. It is a perfect blend of vulnerability, freedom and control. When you dance with your whole being, you are unstoppable, and that confidence, that energy, becomes a magnetic something that attracts everything you desire.

What happened in Valencia was a tragedy that left a deep mark on the city and its inhabitants. A disaster of such magnitude can wipe out lives, property and the balance of a community. The consequences were devastating: thousands of people were affected, many lost their homes, and infrastructure was damaged, making recovery difficult. It is important to remember that behind the magnitude of the disaster are the stories of those who suffered loss, uncertainty and the struggle to cope.
The disaster also exposed the vulnerability of urban areas to unforeseen events. Sometimes, prevention and warning systems are not enough, and it is necessary to rethink the ways in which we prepare for extreme situations. Valencia, like so many other cities, faces challenges in adapting to climate change and increasingly unpredictable events. This is not about looking for culprits, but about learning from what has happened and making sure that we can offer those affected the support they need to rebuild their lives and cope with what is to come.
