This is the end...

Well, It’s the end of another level of English in Universidad de Chile and it’s very difficult to say how was the subject in this semester because we have bad conditions, mainly for the schedule because it’s very late if we consider that we enter to the university past the 9 o’clock in the morning. It’s more than 12 hours in the university! I think that only a few of classes are good in this conditions. We have 2 classes in the week, in the first we write on our blogs and in the other we have a practical class. It’s a good system but the problem is the translates because we have to gone to Bachillerato.

In the theme of the blogs, it’s a good tool to practice our English in a comfortable schedule. We have wrote blogs about our friends, our city, our first day in the university, gifts, opinion of different things like the ballots. It’s a good form to work but it’s not new because I have to wrote in this in the last semester. I think that we can take advantage of the careers that we study, like journalism to make a blog about this, with different information’s or jobs in English. In the case of the students of cinema, they can make more videos.

I think that the schedule of the classes can be more comfortable to the students because in the evening we are more tired. Other thing that can improve is the coordination to use the computer in the practical classes because we always have problems to see movies for example.

I use the English mainly to know the things that say the songs and in my career, to read another webs and international press. Almost the things are written in English and in this world, we have to learn this language.

Life is beautiful also in the worse moments

There is a different type of movies that I like. For example, I like some of love, war, fiction, comedy, drama, accion, etc. I think that in general, I like the movies that have a historic context. Movies like El Padrino, Cinema Paradiso, La Vida es Bella, etc.

For this exercise, I take the last, La Vida es Bella (La vita è bella). This is a movie that shows a true history of the bad moments that have to lived the jewish people. I like the history and I enjoy the films that show things that I don’t know that happened. The form that the film mix a love story with a tragedy it’s a interesting offer to see because also have a lot of funny moments.

I don’t know the moment that I watched, I think that I seen this in the school, but I’m not sure.This movie is from 1997, i think that I watched in 2003.

I don’t have a good memory to remember the actors in the movies, but in this I make trap, the principal actors are Roberto Benigni, Nicoletta Braschi, Giorgio Cantarini, in other. All of they italians. This is other aspect that I like, because it’s a factor of reality, it’s different see it with American actors for example. The language it’s a important factor.

A tender moment in this movie it’s the typical phrase of the film: “buongiorno principessa”

Chile vote

I think that the politic is an elemental thing on our lifes because we need a form to organize the society. Since 2008 that I vote, in that occasion I have to register in the municipality because the system of automatic inscription it’s new.

This municipal elections are my third time that I voted.  I think that it’s the minimum thing that we have to do because we have rights and responsibilities. Besides, I think that Chile is different; I think that Chile is waking up in politic terms. All the different marchs and opinion in the social networks we have to convert in participation.

I like the days of the elections, it’s very good that the people go out and feels that are important in the decision of the country. This recently election are very interesting because mayors like Labbe, Zalaquett, Sabat, Espinoza, etc, are out of their municipalities, is very unexpected and reflect that participate in this are a real option to make changes.

Obviously that we have to change many things about the political system, but it’s a process that we have to cooperate. We have to be citizens with opinion and control to our authority, I think that the people that don’t vote in this time thinks better to the next election his decision.  It’s a powerful arm if we use correctly. Besides, we are journalism and we have to act like a other power, the fourth power.

It's funny but it's no so cool that it seems

Chilean V.I.P

In the History of Chile, we have a lot of important characters who have made different things in the country.
We have an important people in different areas like: Politic, Music, Sports, and in other things. For example in the first area I’d talk about Jose Miguel Carrera, a dreamer of Chile; in the Music, I’d talk of Violeta Parra and Jorge Gonzalez; in the sports, I’d talk about Elias Figueroa, Marcelo Salas.

Talk about “the” greatest Chilean of all time I think that it’s very unfair. But I think that in the sports happens things very special because almost all the people of the country knows about they and specially one: Elias Figueroa.

He is the best player of football of Chile, but now he is retired. He played in Chile, Uruguay (Peñarol) and Brazil (Internacional) and won too many championships and he converted in a idol, not only in Chile, in the country of the samba and the oriental country. 

The people that know about football says that he is the best defender in the world with Franz Beckenbauer. The conditions of him are very amazing of this defender. their height combined with his abilities to play football. He is very popular for play with elegance and with aggressive if the occasion required it. 
But, Elias Figueroa, isn’t only one of the greatest Chilean of all time for the conditions for the football, he is a awesome person, he is a gentlemen of the football, and that is the best characteristic. 

I've never saw him play in the stadiums, but look this video, it's awesome!

The training for the exam

Well, in this class I have done different activities to practise my english for the exam.

There were four tematics to practice, the Reading, Listening, Vocabulary and Lenguaje.

For the first one, I didn't have problems because this is a usuall activity to do in the english classes. But, in the next, I could not done it because in the computers of the university I couldn't listen the audio, but I want to do it in my home.

The Vocabulary was very interesting and I think that i did it well, I just have wrong answers in some questions.

And, finally, in the Lenguaje, It's was very difficult because I had to write a letter but only with the correct words of the page and sometimes I didn't know whats word are in there. Normally I don't have problems because I can write the ideas and the words that I know.

A Blue Gift

We have many gifts that we like in our like, specially, when we are young, because we received a lot of toys and valuable things. But, one of my favorite presents it’s a t-shirt. It’s not a common t-shirt; it is white and it has tree blue lines in the sleeveds and a blue collar with a red edge. Yes, it’s Adidas, and it’s a sport clothe. The most important part it’s the chest with a big red “U” in the left and a owl in the right. The officially second t-shirt of the football team, Universidad de Chile.  

The important of this is who gave it to me, my girlfriend Claudia for my birthday.  This gift has a detail too, the gift-paper, because it was blue with a red rose, the detail of a lady. I think that always I “dreamed” that a girlfriend gave to me a t-shirt of my team of football, this are very expensive. All of my life I am a fan of Universidad de Chile, and I have only a few of t-shirts of this club.

I don’t like the false t-shirts in the football, and Claudia understood this very well. After this, I almost always goes with this t-shirt to the stadium, and obviously, with her. 

My second First Time

I have two first time in the universities. The first was in Adolfo Ibañez in 2009, because I begin studing Bussines and Administration, but I didn't like the university in the high lands of Santiago. I hate the people of this, sons of his rich daddys.

In the next year, I entered to Journalism in Universidad de Chile, yes it's very different but not much also, because I didn't have science. I remember this year like one of my best years of my life, and the beginning was the best.

With my classmates we joined before the academic year in the same university. For the great Earthquake of 2010 in this year we started classes later than usuall. We bought too many alcoholic drinks and we met in the grass of the university. We were almost the complete course and we had a very good time.

This meeting was a week before than we started oficially the university and obviously it's makes more easy to beginning a new year because the majority of the course had met each other.

I remember that I spoke with Ester, Felipe, Nicolas, Daniela, Eva, and more classmates. I think that we always remember this meeting, althought some people were drunk. jaja.

The real first day of the university ? That's boring and usuall comparate with this.-.
