What's you life like these days?

In these days my life is a few busy. In the academic aspect, I have many jobs to do, a couple of paper to read and many presentation in several signatures. Monday and Tuesday are the days more exhausting. I arrived early at 8:30 AM and left the college at 7:30 PM approximately. Thursday I don’t have class, because it is the day designated to the student mobilization. In other aspect, in my personal life, I have seen many friends in this time, like school friends, neighborhood friends, and obviously college friends, with which I spend more time. I like to spend Friday afternoon with my college friends in the Pircas. In the free time I take to do things that I like as eating, reading, writing, cycling, swimming, watching TV among other things. But in the last time, I don’t have much time to do all of this, but I try. I think this year it’s very important to me, because is the last year of class in the college, to the next year I hope find a really good professional practice, and do my thesis in a really interesting topic. And of course I hope that I will have time to do my favorites activities and meet with my friends sometimes.

La Farfana

I Live in Maipú, I live in the neighbourhood of Farfana, in the street called El Rosal. There are many facilities around my home like several supermarkets, a few pharmacies, three schools (Rousseau, Boston College, Alicante), a hardware store, dress stores, a pet shops, restaurants and hairdressers. In fact in my house there is a cyber cafe, which is attended for my mother and my father. Sometimes I help them but I don’t like very much stay there, I think it is bit boring. I think the neighbourhood is quiet, but I don’t pretend stay there all my life, I prefer de centre of Santiago, because all my family lives there, and somehow I grew up there. In the Farfana the pollution is an issue, especially because the neighborhood is located near of the Water Treatment Plant Serviden Farfana, which is the cause of terrible smells. Also in front of my street there is a vacant lot and it has been the cause of many problems for the neighbours, because there were people that wanted put a fair in this place, of course the neighbours opposed, on others occasions a Fun Fair installed there, and in the present there is a circus in this place. So are many conflicts in my neighbourhood. The transportation is good, there are four routes and the frequency is good.

Argentina

I have had many unforgetable vacations in my life. If I have to pick one, I think it would while I went to Argentina with my dad, my mom and my brother. At that time we had more money so we traveled to Buenos Aires. My great grandmother and an aunt
live there. I did not know my great grandmother, and I did not see to my aunt for years, but we spoken by phone with both. We arrived at a hotel and one of those days were to dressed, was very exciting and beautiful, seeing the happiness in that moment, I think never forget it. Then we went with my great grandmother to Mar del Plata, a beautiful place with beautiful beaches. I met many great places. People in Argentina has always been very nice, friendly, always treated us very well. When they knew that we were Chileans got very happy and wanted to know about our ways of life, or as we called things differently from them. I never saw a frown of their part, not a bad word, contrary to what I always see here. When someone talks about the Argentines, often referred to do it in a bad way, but I'm sure that in their lives have never spoken to one. Too bad, because I met many they are good people. I would love to visit Argentina and my family there, since that time I do not see. Since 2004. I hope to go again soon.

Egypt and The Mummy

Hi all, in this free post I will talk about one of the places that I will like to visit once in my life. This is Egypt, since the school I loved history, especially ancient history (In fact, I wanted to study history and have a master's at that), but what struck me was the Egyptian culture. I think those big buildings, their lifestyle, their history, myths, gods, etc. I was blown away with excitement. How I have lived in the time. I think very related to my obsession with Egypt, I became obsessed with film The Mummy, Me and a friend talked all day of this film, that fantesie to be a librarian fan of Egypt and to wake up a mummy (yes I will like that) is one of my favorite movies, if it given two times a day I could actually see it twice or even three times a day, no lie, I've seen the movie more than 50 times, including The Mummy 1 and the Mummy 2, and I think I never tire of seeing it, although I know the dialogues by heart. Is why one of my dream is to meet Egypt, sit in the sand, look to the pyramids and I think that where people sit there for 3 thousand years ago living in civilization that I love. Once in an internet game I was told that in my past life I had lived in Egypt, I bealive it! hahaha. I will wait win the kino and maybe in that moment I will go to Egypt.
See ya!

One of my hobbys- WRITE

I like very much read. In the school the teachers made us read every month. And there was a book that marked in my life. That book was “La casa de los espiritus” of Isabel Allende. I think that book it’s very interesting cause mix the fantasy, the fiction and a part of the history of Chile. That book inspired me to write a novel. May be this happened in 2003, I don’t remember so well but I started a novel about the difficult life of a young girl in the first mundial war on Francia. I passed so much time writting the novel and I finished the story in my head. But with the time I lost the inspiration and I stoped of write. Has been passed so many years since I started write my story, and some years I write one day of all year! When I feel iluminated. I have tryed of recover the inspiration reading more novels of Isabel Allende, but that it not happened yet, so I am waiting, cause I think that the story it so good, and the final it is ready in my head, in fact I have many ideas for others storys and others novels but I want finish my first novel. I think that I wrote 300 pages of my book. But I lost the document of my computer because of a virus.That was a terrible thing, but what a relief that I send the document to my friend, she is the only one that readed it, so she have to send me back the file to keep writing and finally finish it, maybe before pass 10 years.

Been a latino american

Latinoamerica have many countrys with differents cultures, but been a latin american it is a culture and the people of other region have the habit of sterotype us. For example some european think of latinoamerican are poors, ignorant, uncultured, uneducated and thiefs, maybe beacuse we don’ belong to third world. But that, it is a look from outside, but we have an important comun history that make us specials, latinoamerica was poured for Spain, they always had a lower looking to native people, and many people think the same in this era, beacause they think that we are to behind them in everything.
But looks that this behavior it is innate to the human, in Latinoamerica the sterotypes exists between every country perhaps we have a comun past. I think other latin american countrys view chilean like arrogant, quickly people, serious, stressed people for our rhytm of life and way to be every day.
Inside Chile we can see many sterotypes, taht depends of where are they from, what they people like. So we can say that we always sterotypes to the rest of people, even we don’t know them. I Think that it is so bad, because if somebody like a thing, or live in a area doesn’t mean that he is like the rest of people that like the same things. We have to learn to acept that we are not sames.

My favourite beach

I don’ know many beachs, Almost all the beachs that I know are near (V Region), but I like very much go to the beach. I think that my favourite beach is “Las conchitas” that is located in Quintero. I went for first time when I had 6 years old, with my dad, mother and my brother, he was a little baby. It’s my favourite beach because remember me the first time that I saw the sea and was one of the most beautiful things that I saw to that age. In that era, my family went every year to Quintero and I begged to my fathers went to Las Conchitas. It is a small beach but very pretty. The years passed and we didn’t go back until the last year, a month before the earthquake and was very nice because we were there again, all the family. And was an adventure like we were childs, and was a magic week, I saw that sea again, the sea that I saw for first time in my life, everething was different, the people, the houses, the center, but my favourite beach was the same. I hope go back soon the next year.

Fito Paez

The first cd that I had,it was one of Fito Paez called “El amor despues del amor”. One day I was walking for the street and I found a abandoned cd, without a box, a scratched cd. I had 10 years old, I found it near of my house. I think that the cd was broken and that didn’t work. So I left the cd abandoned a few mouths in my desk. One day my dad carried a computer to my house, and I remembered the Fito Paez’cd so I put on it. And the cd works, I was so happy, I lstened and I knew a few songs. Since that moment I always listened Fito Paez, I liked it very much. I like the music of Fito Paez beacuse the lirycs of his songs are really crative, sensitive and emocional. My favourite song of this cd was “El amor despues del amor” , because it’s about the love after love, a love more intense, and that nobody can live whitout love.
I think Fito Paez still been a great artist, I still listened the music of that cd, and songs of others cd of him. I still have the cd among my collection.

My favourite field work

One of the field works that I most liked was the field work of Cultural Geography, with the proffesor Enrique Aliste, the site was Huasco, located in the third region of Chile. Before all, this place is the most far to north that I've been in my life. Initially, I'didn't feel good because I was sick, but then, when we arrived to Huasco and we saw the wonderfull scenery, I got better. I think that Huasco made me undesrtood what it is the mean of territory, one of the main concepts for our career. The people was very nice, welcoming, kind, and was a beautiful life experience and definitely the best field work that I ever had.
I got closser with my friends and I think this area marked a turning point in my career, my life, even in how I see human groups today, because there we saw large contingency issue closely, Pascua Lama.

There have been other field works that I liked very much, that even relate more to what I like most of Geography. However, the field of Huasco goes beyond my personal taste of geography, but it was the experience that I liked.
See you the next week!!!

Hi everybody! Today i'm going to talk about fotolog. Actually I don't use fotolog, but for many time was my favourite social network. I start used fotolog in 2004, I was at school and i had 15 years old. In that time, i saw fotolog every day and all the day, waiting for a new post of my bets friends o someone new. Almost I did'n create the page, my friend Pamela created fotolog for me, in that time was so cool have it. In the begining anybody could post any photo that i uploaded, then there was a few of restrictions, for example the person must had a fotolog for posting to someone else.

I used to upload photos about me, my friends, my favourite bands, and to write how i was feeling.

I like it very much because every now and then, i wath my fotolog and see the old photographys and posts, and I remember that part of my life that was so nice. I remember many things :) Many times i want close the page like close a stage of my life, but then, that idea make me feel sad.

Even though, I don' actually use it, and I use facebook, fotolog is like a life diary of my adolescence.

Fabulosos Cadilacs

The last year I went to Movistar Arena to see Fabulosos Cadilacs, I love them!!!. And yes... I went alone, just me, and the show was awesome. I enjoyed it a lot because i love that music, all the songs are amazing, especially "Siguiendo la luna" When they played that song it was great, all the people sang it. In that time, i was working in a surper market, so i had money, but none of my friends had money!!! But I love Fabulosos Cadilacs because they remind me of my school, my friends, and all that time that was very beatiful, So i had to go! And so it was. The people that were near me were looking at me but I did'n care cause I was enjoyed the show. In a moment of the night I call to my friends, for she listened her favourite song, Some of they, listen very well and they are very happy, but the others just listened noise :(. Wathever I love the concert, If they'll come back, I'll go!!! But.. right now I don't have work!!! Anyway, i thing that i will borrow money with somebody, I swear that i will pay it back!!!!!!!

My favourite movie

It is so hard to me say what it is my favourite movie. I love see movies of any style. But... I thing if I have to chose one, maybe I chose Riding in Cars with Boys. I saw that movie many years ago, and I never forget it, because it's a simple movie, but it shows a history of a woman (Drew Barrymore), his life, that was very difficult. In the movie, she travel with an adult man, her son, And she remember her life, she had a baby so young, practically alone. Her boyfriend was almost a tramp, he had not job, and she couldn't fullfil her dreams until now. All for her son, but he decide leave her for a woman. But when he met his father, he can see that his mother did everything for him. In the final she met with his father and sing an amazing song together... "dream, dream, dream... When I want you, in my arms when I want you and all you charms. Whenever I want you, all I have to do is dream... " I like this movie over the others, because I think it delivers a nice message, lifestyle, dreams and love.
