Blog

Hi!, Ow this semester has concluded so this blog too.
The experience of writing a blog was, weird haha, I don't know, I've never thought this could be a method to evaluate something on a subject. I think this is a good method indeed, because without want to, you'll learn a lot of vocabulary, because you have to write about something in specific and to do that, you have to know how to express yourself and sometimes you don't know how to say it and you must search new words because of that.
In the future I'd like to include "translate songs" (English to Spanish or viceversa) I think that is a nice method (and funny) to learn new words and is something that might interest a lot of people, because there is always much people who wants lyrics in spanish but they don't know speak english, so If we know how to translate it, we could help them and also we learn with that. I don't know is just an idea.

-what else you would like to write about?.

The truth is that I have no idea about what haha, maybe about vacations or university experience... I don't know.

So this is the end of this semester and I must to say goodbye to this... and hi vacations!!! hahaha (one week only :c, but something is something).

Favourite subject

Hi everybody.

Today I’m going to talk about my favourite subject at university.

I have two favourite subjects.

The first one is Soil, and the second one is Botany, both are part of one single subject called CICBAE.

In soil, I have learned about geomorphology, minerals, rocks. And in botany about the parts who compound a plant, like vascular system, their tissues, etc.

I like known about minerals, how they are compounds and how the earth was made, I mean, I feel so interested in those topic, I love the fact that with little details you can infer a lot of things about the landscape.

In Botany I like the taxonomy part, that is to say, how the plant organs are classified, their families. I like recognize them. 

That’s why those one are my favorite subject. 

Loba

This is a photo taken by Ariel (AriCaFoix), it's shows Loba, a female dog that lived in Antumapu. This was taken on June 7th, 2012.

Loba was a beautiful dog who died on June 11th,2012, just 4 days later since the photo was taken. She died because of a heart attack. She was more than 13 years.
You could always find her outside of the Antumapu's casino sleeping or having a rest, or walking round there.
I loved the colour of her eyes, because, as you can see, they were of different colours, and she was so 'plushy'.
Also if you were sitting next to her, she stay with you and she shows you her stomach to did some caress to her.

Cristian's mistakes

Think about a favorite thing (something favourite) it`s a difficult task, at least for me (hahahaha) jajajaja, there`s so many films that I realy (really) like, but I can only (only can) talk about one, and I think it must be the most awarded of all that I have seen, The Lord of the Rings.

Directed and produced by Peter Jackson, Starring by Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Liv Tyler, John Rhys-Davies, Orlando Bloom, Cate Blanchett, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, Hugo Weaving , Christopher Lee, Sean Bean and  Andy Serkis, I very (really) like this film because it have (has) a excellent script, starring, camera work, music, scenery, I realy (really) like everything on this film.

It`s based on the (on) books with the same name, writed by J.R.R. Tolkien who tells about the (Frodo's) journey and adventures of Frodo, a hobbit who has the mission to carry the (Sauron's) ring of Sauron to (")the mountain of the destiny(") and destroy it, and definitely kill Sauron. For this, he is helped by a (warrior) goup of warriors and a powerfull mage (named) unther (under) the name “The Fellowship of the Ring”. They accompany Frodo during (travel first part) the first part of the travel, and defend him against a lot of foes that they meet along the travel. The most important (Frodo's) friend (is) of frodo it`s Sam, a hobbit who follow, defend and andvise (advices) Frodo until the end of his adventure.

The other characters fights (fight) against the hordes of Mordor, the (Sauron's) city of Sauron in different places of the realm, facing their fears, and defending their honor and lifes against the creatures of the darkness. 

Into the Wild

Today i'm not going to talk about my favourite movie, because i think i don't have one ... but im gonna talk about Into the wild that its kind of one of my favourite movies.
Into the wild is a movie based on a true story. It's talks about Christopher McCandless a young man who leaves his middle class existence in pursuit of freedom from relationships and obligation. He abandoned his possessions and money (to charity) and he go to Alaska by hitchhikes, into the wild, to spend time with nature, with 'real' existence, away from the trappings of the modern world.
I love this movie because is a beautiful story and leaves you a lot of sensation and emotion. Is kind of hard to explain, you really have to see it to understand.
I think that i like it because he did something that lot of people would like do, but no one does it, because is something extreme. Is difficult leave your things, your family, your carreer, your life to have an adventure, and live by natural resources.
I mean I'd like live travelling but i have to get a carreer to get a work and have a 'future' because that is the thing that society says... this is the way that life has to be. If you don't have a carreer or you don't want to have a plan for your life... people would see you like a weirdo.
In this society it's becoming more difficult live without material things, and the movie talks about a man who didn't want this more, and he simply left the life that he didn't want to live. And thats the thing that I admire, and i like it more because is based on a true story .
So i recommend you to see this movie.
Also the soundtrack is amazing.
Directed by Sean Penn
(Main)Cast: Emile Hirsch, Marcia Gay Harden, William Hurt, Jena Malone.

The coypu who stole my heart

Hi, today I'm going to talk about Forestín. The coypu who stole my heart.
When CONAF started to comand the Fire Management program is the birth of an stronger forest fire prevention campaign.
The first idea was a symbol named "Custodio", represented by a tree. This option was discarded because it's  didn't reaches more welcome in public opinion.
On June 12th, 1976, during the CONAF's Fire Management evaluation made in the Bio-bío region emerges the idea of using as symbol a Coypu. That would be the instant which Forestín "would see the light".
Created by Gabriela Omegna Molina.
So Forestín is a Coypu wich wear a yellow jacket and fire brigade helmet and his mission is to educate the public about the dangers of forest fires.
His name was invented by a competition for children.

PJ 2011

On November 16th, 2011. Pearl Jam came to Santiago, Chile (Estadio Monumental).

I had purchased a ticket to "cancha", to be as close as possible. 

The day before, I arrived at the stadium near 4 in the afternoon with Ariel. We took a blanket and food for the night.

When we reached the stadium, there were few people, but while the time passed by, people were joining until we were 20 or 30.

At night a group of us, was playing the guitar and we (me and Ariel) were listening. Also, occasionally we could heard the openning act's rehearsal. 

Near 12 am, the containment fence was installed.

I don't know how much time I slept, but I wasn't sleepy. 

People began to arrive at 10 am (more or less).

Within which we slept outside the stadium there was a group of three that were taking turns. All was good, but as the day progressed, we realized that they were leaking a lot of people that were making the row outside the gates of containment. Then we knew that they were ten club chile's members and their plan was to leak the rest of the members (at least 20 person).It was a situation that led to a little discussion.

It was increasingly people, Lucas (a friend's brother) had joined to us. We remained sat, glued to the front gate of the stadium, right in the door that would open.

Later, when the doors were about to be opened, the guards were all in their places, also the people who cut tickets. The excitement and anxiety felt in the air. I was in front of the gates, standing, I was the first.

Doors were opened (at last), Ariel did back pressure so that people would not fall on me and I ran like I've never ever done before. They cut my ticket and then I kept running, a couple of people left me behind, but there were few. I continued running and I got to the gate in front of the stage, was just in front of the microphone that Eddie Vedder would use later. Out of breath, I leaned and they gave me water.

I enjoyed the whole concert in the front row.
It was an amazing experience.
