Post 10: English Language Challenges

Hi everyone today I'm going to post the last post of the year, talking about how did it go this year, especially in the English class.
I think this semester wasn't too different than last semester, I mean regarding the blog, I sincerely didn't like much the fact that some posts were exactly the same.
But there were some different things like the videos, (I didn't like it, because I don't like talk in a video camera and I feel embarrassed) and another thinng we did was to listened different kinds of accents.

In my English I need to improve the talking part, because I think I write pretty well, but when I speak my tongue gets tangled up, I would like have talked more in class. The other thing I need to improve is understand when music or someone talks too fast to me and, to that, I would like have listened music. We could have completed some things in a paper about the song or something like that.

Outside the English class I am using my english only for translate some papers or some songs, but I didn't really have used the language to talk or something like that, like I said I'd only used this to read meanly.

I hope someday I could talk fluent this language.

Post 9: 2014 Have you had a good year?

Hi everybody, today I'm going to talk about my year balance.

I'm a life's grateful, because I think so much good things had happened to me in my life that bad moments  doen´t really matters to me. The best that ever happened to me has been meet the people I know, most of them have been with me on my worst and best moments, I consider them part of my family.

Regarding situations that didn't go so well, could be when were moments in which I felt alone at university and I felt friendless, but not now. Also I've had problems with some complex subjects to me, like genetics, but I hope I could get the mark to approve it.

Talking about my achievements this year, those would be that I approved all my subjects last semester, and I hope this become true also this semester. In addition to that I came true the idea of being a teacher's assistant and that was a new experience I liked too much.

This year still isn't over so I trust in I could reach my goals like finish the year with all my favourite people by my side or approve all subjects, etc.

An event to highlight... Mmm, my cousin Karla (24 years) got married on october 4th. I know it isn't about me, but is like the biggest event that happened this year; And regarding me I basically am living at university this year, no much events outside it, so it's been boring.

So my year balance is that although it's been poor of events, it's been positive because I feel full of good energy and completely loved, I'm so happy, and no matter what bad things happened last year because this year I'm so fine that everything is good.

Cya!.

Post 8: Let's talk about money

Hi everybody, today I'm going to talk about something, in my opinion, important in our culture to live: Money.

To me money, is important because without it, in our society is difficult to live, I mean, food, things, education, medicine... everything costs a lot of money!.

Nowadays I don't really spend much money, but when I do is for transport (transantiago), I spend like 2800 CLP a week on that. Also I use money to buy gifts or sometimes food but it isn't much (well, it depends on the occasion).

I'm a saver; I mean, I always keep money for emergency or whatever, so I believe that I'm good at managing my budget. Also I don't like be in debt, so I try to calculate how money I must have, and if I don't have it, then I don't buy it, or in case I have to buy/do something I don't do other things. 

If I were a millionaire, I don't know what I would do with so much money... I'd like to have lots of dogs and a big garden to them. I thing that part of my money would be saved to the future (who knows if money doesn't last for the eternity) and the other part I'd use it to whatever, for example, help if anybody needs it, or enjoy it, you know whatever, the idea is not to be scrooge.

If I had to pawn any of my belongings... I'm thinking that I don't have something really expensive to pawn, I believe that nobody will pay much money for any of my possesions, on the other hand I pawn whatever of my things but no some gifts that some important people have given me to me.

So that was the post today, if you like post something related with this.
Cya!.         

Post 7: How green are you?

Hi, today I'm going to talk about recycling.The truth is that in my family we don't have recycling habits, we only use biodegradable things, but we don't separate plastics from paper, glass or organic rubbish.
At school I learned some things, but at university (because of a teacher) I learned that exist different types of plastics, and to recycle them you must classify them.
It’s difficult to incorporate those practices in my home, because we live in a condom, and you have to take out the garbage in the condom entrance to the garbage trunk. In other words, the problem is even though we classify the things, the trunk would put those things together again and the work would be for nothing. Other complication would be that near my home there is nothing to recycle, I mean a place to leave the classified rubbish.
In transport, sometime I use my bike, but to go to a near places, because I have some problems or conditions to go outside in bike, for example, I don't go alone if I will return late also I live in Peñalolen but like in the mountain haha, so It is difficult go too far from there, because the return is horrible. But I'd like go in my bike to everywhere, but my main problem is time, I really can't be alone too late (when sun has set).
I've never been or supported any eco-organization. I don't know why, I think I know none.
To reduce my carbon footprint, every morning in my bedroom I disconnect every electrical thing and always I turn off the lights when nobody is there, same with the TV, or anything.
I think in our society we're missing places to recycling and culture about this. For example at parks would be nice have more trash can, but the ones to classify the garbage. Also we need more information about how those classifications are made.

So,that was the topic for today. 

I'd like to know how about you, what do you think about this?.

A nurse's aid infect with ebola

A nurse's aid is infected with ebola in Spain, is the first person with this disease out of Africa. Because of this it is so shocking to me, I mean if someone was able to get infected out of Africa, means that in any moment that disease might be extended to an another country an finally the rest of the world and there's no cure yet.

Two people were involved, the nursing assistant and the pacient who gave her (a 69 years old man).

This piece of news could affect my country because this could be an alert alarm. For example, the body's government might be more detailed with people who came to Chile.

I don't really know what kind of news I would to read or hear on TV, but I know that isn't the regular news you can hear or read  here, because they are  (mostly) stupid!. I mean, who cares what a model/singer  whatever do with her life, or if she bought something.
I'd like that our news were more cultural or important.

My future job

Hi everyone, today i'm going to talk about the thing I would like to do professionally in my life. 

At university I'm studying Forestry, but I would like to major in flora and fauna, specially in birds (I love ornithology), as I said in other post before, I like see birds and identify them by sight and hear, and I also like identify flora by their different classifications (corolla, leaf disposition, root, etc).

I would like to have a job which require be outdoors, investigation, know about nature.

To choose my job I would consider free time, I mean I don't want a job who consume all my time and life. Also I'll think about the money could get because I have a lot of plan in mind, like I'd like to have lots of animals, a swimming pool, etc. For those kind of stuff, obviously I have to have money. And I'd like to consider, if it is possible, if I would have the option to do the research or whatever at my way, I mean not to follow a rigid way to work.

My strenghts are that I'm an easy-going person, I mean is not difficult to me adapt to the rules or different kind of people and I work fine on a group work.

My weakness are all things that has to do with an audience that is talk in public, I get too nervous, but is something I can fix.

And that it.

See you around.

My best friend

I think all of us have a best friend, someone who we trust more than no one. In my case I think I have two: Oscar and Felipe.

I met them both at school. Felipe was my classmate since 2001 (5th grade) and Oscar was in the parallel class.

With Oscar we've been friends for 7 years from now (more or less) and with Felipe for 10 years (more or less). 

I consider them my best friends because they are who I trust the most, they know all about me and viceversa. 

And them both have been with me when I needed the most. 

With Felipe I went to a class-trip on 2007 to Brazil it was good and with other friends we've gone to the beach on different summers. I think those are my best memories with him.

Oscar has been my couple for 2 years from now and before this we've been friends (like I said before). 3 years ago we went to a trip with 2 more friends. We went to the south of Chile (Santiago to Chiloé) and we were traveling for like 3 weeks. We have a lots of photos of that and also last year we (only we both) traveled to Argentina (Villa la Angostura and San Martìn de los Andes) and we visited the south of chile too (Huerquehue, Petrohue and Puerto Varas). Those are my best memories with him. 

I hope I could carry on collecting memories with them.
