Correction post August, 25th

I began to learn English language in my first year of university with the teacher Simon Higginson, this class is very difficult for me because all my classmates have a base in English but I had to learn everything these years. In the beginning of the course I didn`t enjoy to study the English language because I didn’t understand a thing. I was unsuccessful in the first years to the class of English because it was scaring. I don’t know what kind of learner I am and not find nothing easy about learning English because this language have a structure different from the Spanish language in the logic.I find difficult the form of think in the English language for the communication with other people because the structure to speak is different..I don’t know about English culture but I think that is completely different to my culture because I know some people from the English country and they think in a different way.The English language for me is useful in some occasions as in the university and when I was working of part-time in a restaurant but in my daily life is not useful because my family and common people don’t speak English, and this people didn’t have the opportunity of to learn the English language.In my opinion the English language is the tool of communication for some countries but is not necessary for all people. People have their own language and culture and I feel that it is not necessary to pressure them.

Field trip

My last field trip was to Alhué, this place is located southwest of the metropolitan region is a beautiful place with many animals and birds.
I went to Alhué because it was a field trip for a course of my career with teacher Rodrigo Vargas and my classmates. In the field trip all of us we split into three distinct thematic works that was the theme of the physical environment, the sphere of the life and human sphere.

I work in the field of the life with others classmates and I enjoyed a lot the field trip because I learned new things and it was fun.

Dear Yori

I don’t know noting of you only know that you are my teacher in the blog but today I writing this letter for to ask you about yourself. The first question is about you real name because I think that your name is not Yori and I want you to tell me about your life for that you and me we know more. I would also like to know you do in your free time ¿Do you have hobbies? And ¿What do you do in the weekend?

"Martian Child"

Is very difficult to choose only one movie as my favourite because there are many good movies, but this year I saw a movie that surprised me, this movie is “Martian Child”, for this reason it is now my favourite.

The movie is interesting because shows through the story of an abandoned child the reality of our present society. The first time that I saw this film it was in this year with my boyfriend in his house I don’t saw this movie in the cinema because this movie was available only in the blockbuster.

The story is about the life of an abandoned child and a man who months before lost his wife because she died and he adopts a this child, the actors in this movie are Joan Cusack, Sophie Okonedo, John Cusack, Amanda Peet and Oliver Platt. This movie has a beautiful dramatic story but a solid content social and emotional that suggests that we are limited the persons for create and think beginning child. Denis in the movie teaches John Cusack to return to live and feel no limitation. Only learn to live together in their own way without thinking about what others say of them and their behavior, only being happy together.

Favourite piece of technology

The laptop is my favourite piece of technology at the moment, mainly because I use it every day in my house, in the university and everywhere. I bought it this year in April and I've used it all day, it is very useful for me. The laptop is an important tool for work and entertainment because the laptop integrates many functions into a single piece of technology and can be carried everywhere because it’s small size. In my everyday life I use the laptop all day in different hours and different places I like the laptop because it is a very important tool for my life and it is very useful for my career. With my laptop I can do my university’s assignments, listen to some music and in the night watch movies in my house. Other thing that I do with my laptop is work with software of geographic information system (SIG) as ArcGis 9.2, Idrisi, Erdas and Arcview.

If I did not have my laptop I would die…because it is important part of my life without it I would not be able to do all the things I do. My life would be harder, I would have to use the bad computer of the university.

September 18 in Chile

This is an important day for my country because it is the celebration of the first national government meeting in the year 1810.

In September 18, all Chileans enjoy the national celebration whit “chicha”, “empanadas”, barbecue and they dance the traditional dance that is the “cueca” in the “fonda” or “ramada”.

When I was a girl was playing fly a kite in the park whit my family it was very funny, because all children out of his houses to playing in different thing as spinning top, marbles or fly a kite. Nowadays, I go to the “fonda” in the O’Higgins Park for dance and eat traditional food of Chile.

I remember that my September 18 favourite was four years ago whit my two cousins, sister and uncle, we were at the O’Higgins Park in the night for eat “empanadas”, barbecue and dance, this was my favourite September 18 because, this day was the last that I saw at my family complete.
The 18 of September is a special day, because all people think in others things and forget his problems for one day and they only amuse themselves meeting, dancing, conversing, eating and enjoying the national celebration whit all people of the country.

Five years from now...


In 5 more years I think that in the profesional side I will be working in some Government Organism outside Santiago. That will be after having finished a post degree outside of the country, regarding the enviroment or local development. On a personal side, I think I will live in the south of Chile, relaxed and close to nature. I would like to have a couple to enjoy and share my life with him.

The place where I would like to live in is close to Valdivia or Chiloe, because those are quiet and very beautiful places. I don’t like Santiago neither big cities, because the lifestyle is way too stressing and are very contaminated. An ideal Future for me is beign quiet and living in a place that allows me to do a lot of things. I would like to have my own field to cultivate my own vegetables and have horses beacuse they're the animals I like the most along dogs.
