Summer plans

Hi guys! Today I'm goint to talk about my plans for this summer. Like all the years I plan many things because the true is that I hate pass the summer in Santiago. It is too hot so it's really unbearable.
So after we finish the University I'm going to Bolivia. I'm going with all my family. We will be in Santa Cruz for 3 weeks because my father live there so we will go to accompany him. I like very much Santa Cruz, the weather it's tropical and although there are no beaches there are many pools so it's very nice to be there. The people are very friendly and the culture it's too nice so we really enjoyed being there.
In February I don't know very well what I'll to do. I think that I'll be in Valparaiso with my boyfriend and we would like to go to the south but I don't know yet.
In march I have plan go to Brazil with some friends. I buy the ticket for March 5th for 10 days. I'm going to Rio de Janerio and I'm very excited because I love Brazil: the people, the culture, the caipirinha and the beaches. So I know that it will be so much fun. I want to go to Copacabana and Ipanema and to all the typical places.
I really don't think to study this summer. This year was very hard so I only want to rest. Been in the beach, eat typical food and relaxing.
Brazil will be perfect because then the University start again so it will be like a motivation to start the year.

My future job

Hi guys! Today I have to talk about my future job but the trust is that I really don't know which will be. Of corse I dont want to work in an office. I think that it's for this reasson that I study art, because I can't imagine all my life in a desk doing things that never make me happy.
In a future I would like to travel to many parts of the world so I think that I'll be doing my works in the place that I have been in the moment. In this moment I dont want to live all my life in Chile but maybe in the future I want this but I know that it will not be in Santiago. Of corse I hope to work in what I'm study.
In the career I'm in the paint workshop. Also in all this years I learned so much things more so I think that I and all of my classmates are very complete and can do anything we want...

TV programme

Hi guys! Today I'm going to talk about a TV programme I ejoyed wachting when I was a child. First I have too say that when I was child I enjoyed very much to see cartoons. The TV programme for childs were very funny and much better that the cartoons of today. Like Ginger, Hey Arnold, Rocco or Rocket Power. They were brilliant and sometimes when they are in TV I get very happy.
Hey Arnold was a serie that I love until today. Im sure that all of my classmates saw it sometime. It was about a group of children that lived in the same neighborhood and went to the same school. They pass for many adventures and it was impossible not to imagine that us with our friends were like the Arnold's friends and had many adventures like them.
The serie was on since 1996 so it accompanied to us throughout childhood. In 2004 was the last episode and in the present sometimes appear in some chanel but this is not always.
I enjoyed very much this serie because it had many different characters whit different storys and all of them were so much fun.
I recently read that Nickelodeon will make a new channel to pass all the classics cartoons like Hey Arnold, Rugratts and many more. I'm very excited to see this channel. It will be like going back to childhood and the new generations will know the funny that was our cartoons.

Activity in class

Hello! Today I'm going to talk about an activity that we do in class and it consisted in a kind of tour of our faculty.
It was very funny and I enjoyed so much. It's help me very much for knowing some workshop that I'd never see before and for understand some process of techniques that I haven't done. Some techniques seems very interesting like ceramic. I hope learn it someday.
The activity was very funny because we relax a little from all the academicals teaching and we were in our circles teaching to our classmates and professor what we do. It was a very good experience told what we do and show the space and the works. It was a good practice and more related with we and with why we are learned english: to publicize our work to people from all parts of the world.
Our course it finished so I think that it's very difficult do more activities like that but I think and I hope that in the next years for the next english students the professor can do more things like this and thus prepare the students when they want to show them works to foreigners.

My favourite food

Hi! Today I'm going to talk about my favourite food. It's humitas!
The trust is that I love the corn and all the foods you can prepare with it. In this part of the years the corn beging to appear like much others products like watermelons. So we start to eat much food with corn: Pastel de choclo, Porotros granados and Humitas. Also I prepare salads with corn and are too much tasty and fresh.
I love humitas. I can eat many and it dosen't bored me. I like to eat with tomatos and onion: Chilean salad! Sometimes I eat with sugar but this not like to all the persons.
I love the summer and all the tastes that come with it. In my family all the weeks eat Porotos granados or with mazamorra and then a big piece of watermelon. And when all the family it's together we eat humitas or pastel de choclo and pass the day talking and laughing under the sun and feeling the breeze.
I'm sure that many of you do the same and enjoy the summer and the foods like me.

My best vacation ever

Hello! The best vacations I ever been to was when I went to the north of Chile and to Bolivia. It was in January and we were traveling one month.
I start travel with my boyfriend from Copiapo and from there we went to the beautiful beaches that you find in the Atacama region. There we rest and relax and ate a lot of seafood.
Then we travel to San Pedro de Atacama and we were in amazing places that I ever seen before. Our friends arrive to San Pedro later so we can do all the things in group. We walk so much and visit many beautiful places.
Then we travel from there to Bolivia. We cross from a biological reserve and see many lakes and many animals like flamingos.
After that we arrive to Uyuni. The city was really ugly but we wanted to know the Salar so we stay there. The Salar it's really amazing. It's to big and beautiful and it looks like a mirror so it seems an endless sky
Then we went to La Paz. I love La Paz. The demography and all the culture that you can see there it's very nice.
And finally we went to Copacabana and La Isla del Sol. Here we relax and eat typical food.
Was a very long trip and we pass all the time traveling to some place. Was beautiful be in new places and see fantastic landscapes.

A COUNTRY I'D LIKE TO VISIT








Hello! Today I'm going to tell you about a place I really want to visit: It's Rio de Janeiro. I've always been interested in Brazil for the nice weather that it have and the beautiful beaches. But also for the people and the happines that you can find there. I know that the Brazilians are very friendly and cheerful people so I think that the time you pass in this country will be very confortable and pleasant.
If I go there some day the first thing I will do is go to Copacabana and stay all day relaxing in the beach. I will drink Caipirinhas and dance Samba all the night. And also visit the famous places that it has.
I'd like to stay in some hostel and meet people from all over the world and obviously Brazilians.
If some day I have the opportunity I'd like to live there. I think that in Santiago we are very stressed so we need to relax and live more carefree and happy like the people in Brazil.
I am planning to go soon so I hope that results it.
Bye!

My blog experience

Hi guys! Today I'm going to talk about my blog experience in this express course of english. In general for me was really fun writte in the blog. It was very fun told to my classmates things of my life in another language.
I think that doing the post in the blog gives me more confidence in my abilitys for english. Obviously I need to learn more but I think that this kind of excersices are very useful for practice the language.
I think that my skills in English have improved very much, especially in the written and the oral part. In the past I often fell insecure when a foreigner ask me some thing and I have to answer in english. I felt ashamed if I can't say waht I want to say. But now I fell a little more confidence about my abilitys and what to say in some cases. Even so I have to say that the listenning part it's hard for me yet.
In the future I would like to practice some themes about our career. Like how to talk about our art works in other countries or with foreigners that are in  Chile. So I hope that in the English 4 we can writte about things like that.

Friedrich Stowasser


Hello! I'm going to talk about an artist that I like. His name is Friedensreich Hundertwasser. He was an Austrian painter and also he designed some buildings although he was not an architect.
His original name was Friedrich Stowasser. He change his name in different times of his life and use his changes as a ritual. He said: "I have many names and I'm many persons: I'm a painter, an architect, an ecologist. There are to many things to do that I like to be 10 Hunderwasser and do 10 more things".

In his job he try to mix the art with the life. His drawings represent the inhumane modern city. And his architecture was always from an ecologic point of view. 
A quality of his creation that I really like is the use that he have in his paintings. He said that a world of color was always synonymous of paradise. And also in his architecture he always was conscious for the environment. He do buildings with roof with vegetation and save of energy and with much color too.
If you don't know this artist look his job and tell me what you think.

INTERNET

Hello! Today I'm going to talk about the Internet and also a website that I really like.
At firs I have to say that I like very much the Internet and what we can do with it. It's a very practice tool and contains almost all the information that we need. Some things that doesn't appears in the traditional mass media you can find here. And is very fast so when we have a question or we need extra information about a theme we can go to the Internet and resolve it.
So I pass some times of my day in Internet.
A website that I like it's upsocl.com. I love this website because it contains publications of any theme that you can imagine. From videos home-made until documentary. You can find social experiments that are registered in video and also tutorials. In general you can find many options for pass the time. It's a website of entertainment and information that can be a very practice tool too.
And also you can follow it in Facebook so sometimes you don't remember visit the web but appears many links constantly in your Facebook desk. So I'm always visit the web unconsciously.
So if you have time and interest in this website visit it.
See you!

My pothograph




Hello! Today I'm going to talk about this photograph. My brother took me this photo when we went to La Paz, Bolivia. The scenery that appears behind me is the monumental city of La Paz. This photograph was taken the last summer in the month of January when we go to Bolivia for our vacations with our parents. We go to Bolivia sometimes in the year because my father lives in Santa Cruz. This city it's far away from La Paz, it's more near from Brazil and the Amazon. So this is the reason why I choose this picture, because reminds me this beautiful country that I love so much. And in specific La Paz it's a city that I like so much for the demography that it have. This photograph likes me bacause you can see the fantastic view that you can appreciate if you climb until the Alto city. The persons that have had the opportunity to be in this amazing place knows the wonderful experience that this represents.

I hope you likes my photo and if you have the change to go, do it!

Lali

Hello! Today I'm going to talk about Lali. It's my first pet so we are very excited about have it.
Lali it's a dog, it's a female and it's a stray dog. A friend of my brother found Lali in a trash can. Poor Lali! someone wants to kill it!
So my brother adopt Lali and we went to the vet. He was a very bad vet. First he said that Lali been a little dog and today it's enormous. And then he said that Lali was a male so we name it  Tango. We called Tango for 2 weeks and one day we said Tango it's a girl. And we named Lali! Because the nickname of my grandma was Lali and she have dead a short time ago.
From then Lali has been a celebrity in our house. It's very playful and love to be out. Early in the morning start to bark and we have to open the door and she runs and play all the day in the street. It's a tieff dog! Every day brings to us things that she have stolen to the neighbours! It's so crazy and we laugh much with she,
This photo was a day that was very cold and she lay down to we put it on some shelter. It's look like a baby jaja
I hope you like Lali

My favourite piece of technology

Hello! Today I'm gonna talk about my favourite piece of technology. It's my celphone, an Iphone that I got about 1 year ago.
I use it for call and send messages obviously. But also I use it for take photos, listen to music, make contact with persons tha I don´t usually see, surf in the internet and much other things! So you can deduce that I use my celphone much part of the day. It´s so useful! And this is why I liked it, because it's a very practical object. It's like all in one. You don't need to use a calendar to write your dates because in the celphone you can keep this information. You don´t need to use a extra camera or a MP3 because the celphone have this incorporated. The celphone it´s very confortable!
I think that the life without celphones could be more slow. Like plan a date, find information that you need  immediately or take a photo can´t been so easy like now. But also I think that the persons could start again to comunicate face to face because this is something that we lost and this is something that the celphone have provocated in the society.
See you!
