the blogging experience!


In general I don´t like to be more than hour in a classroom , I esaily get bored. Also when a teacher talk to much about the same item or idea I don’t pay atention because if the idea is not interesting I get borred too. So I can say that I enjoy the experience of having a blog for the English class, because I prefer work in the computer that work in the classroom. Also the English Class its too late at 4 pm until 7:30pm and after a hard day of classes and homeworks I can’t pay too much atention to any class So, make a blog i’ts more funny and relaxing that normal classes. For me the only problem is the schedule, we go to our homes at 7:30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the means of transport are not the best.
However, in general I feel like a really learn how to write in English maby its no so productive because its only a blog and for my career I need to learn about specific vocabulary , like the pappers about Archeologist or social Antrophologist. But despite that, learn using the blog it help´s me with my vocabulary in general, But specially I STARTED TO THINK IN ENGLISH and not translate words from spanish.
I think that Internet and television and all kinds of visual means are a very usefull for learning because our society its more visual than auditive: We always watch Tv or We have internet in our computers but We don’t listen to much radio, for example. In the case of the blog I think that the most adventages of using this mean for learning is the visual and technological way that obiously its more funny that books for example.
Also using a Blog has disadvantages for example if you have to writte about your family or about your life the people not always is kind and serious , and that kind of informantion is became public when you use a blog. An other disadventages its that you can’t learn about specific vocabulary about the career.

World cup!


I don´t have many memories of the previous World Cup because i was so young and Chile not always classified. But in this year Chile has the opportunity to play. After the all problems of this country in the sport area, the only hope for Chile in this, its the World Cup , so I think that World cup its an important event for show the world our country as something more not only like the last place of the World. So Me and my friends decided watch the match between Chile and Suiza tomorrow at 7:30 am. First we are going to gather in MAriela ´s House and we are gooing to make some tacos and Shot of tequila, i would be wonderful night! we want to wait the macth all night long!


Im so exating about the soccer game that i expect that Chile win the match, and classified to next round, my boyfriend told to me that the most important strategy of Chile its the way that the team play together, playing like a real united group, complement each other. And i think that He is rigth because that was Bielsa want to do, Show a group strategy. So I believe that Chile will win tomorrow not for a few goals. maeby 3 or 2.


I think that Chile is always considerated like a country of the third world, despite of the development in relation to Latinoamerica ( like think the first world countires) so is really important to Chile shows to the countries that despite, to the catastrophe like the earquake or the bad administration of the resources and social problem like education: Chilean players can be good, even that they were educated in this third world country.

my favourite frozen moment (L)


I have many favorite photos, so i decided to choose one photo with a special person... my cousin

we spent together a difficult moment in the summer , and I supported her and she sopported me.

and we grew up together in this summer... so I will choose one special moment: that day we laugh too much and we felt happy to be in next to each other, maybe in one the most difficult moment, and I always remenber that in my heart. Other thing special about this picture is that I fixed, I take different photos and copied in an other image ( in a traditional negative of the photos) using photoshop. in the left side of the picture are two photos with a face of the sun , that represents my and my cousin smiling, then in the rigth side of the picture there is a sequence about our faces in diferrent moments , that shows differents feelings, but all relacionated with our love between cousins. all the pictures was taken by me with my cellphone, but I had to use the timer of the camera cell, me and me cousin had to srtike a funny pose until the camera take the photo and we had to change quickly our faces and strike another pose. I really like this photo because its about love and support , but not in a traditional way, more lika a natural feeling, like a conection between members of a special family.

I think that this kind of photos are important because you can have many friends and boyfriends , but family you can only have one, and its very nice freeze moments that maybe to can only live once.

salta la " linda" argentina


i have too many fauvorite trips , but i decided chose a trip with my family of Calama.

In the year 2007 i went to Salta, Argentina,with my family that lives in Calama,also i went with my mother my father and my little sister. This trip was very special , Salta is one of the most beautiful cities of Argentina, for that reason his name is Salta " la linda" , has many atractions like museums, parks, and restorants, etc. I love Salta because of its people and the history of its streets , but the most important i love Salta because the food, i went to many restorants and i eat the best food of my life, and my favourite dish was "bife chorizo " and pastas. How ever i only stayed 3 days , beacause we have problems in border : there was a terrible seasonal and we have to sleep in the mountains in side the car. then we arrived, we went to a beatiful restorant and since that moment i coudn´t stop to eat ... then my ant show us the city, and in the night we went to the" patio balcarce" a place were there a many pubs and folk " peñas" also a places that you can dance and listening music, but the most amazing of " patio balcarce" was that the party also is in the street but not in a chilean way , like drunk people in the street, its like a quite and order party but really fun, for example you can see musicians playing folk or rock. Then in the second day i eat to much again and in the next morning we left. i was very sad beacuse Salta became my fouvarite place , but i really need stop to eat, if i not , today i will be a really fat woman
