My blog experience

Hello!, well, today I going to talk to you about my blog experience. In general, I don’t have a good formation in english, even when I was the best in my grade when I was in the school. I consider that write is a good way for learning this language. Is very useful, and if we are constant, the learnings can be impressive, although is very difficult meanwhile we are studying. We can't learn quickly and efficiently. The time for an student is very short, but if we are decide, we can do it. Write, think, search the words to construct the sentences is a nice experience, in special if we like the language. The topics that we can talk are so many, almost of the time we are thinking about differents things and can do an exercise of introspective.
An other way that likes me to much is the program in internet, DUOLINGO, is a good way to lean english and other language in general. After learn english I wan to learn french, I think that the french is a beautifull language and the country like me very much, I dream that one day I can travel to Europe and visit the principals countries. Go to England and Germany and see all the places and his history really like me, maybe because I am an anthroplogist, but is not the only reason.

Well, this is for today, see you later.

Some Movies

In this ocassion, I want to talk about some movies that my family likes. First, is Nacho Libre. I showed their this movie two or three years ago. This is a 2006 american comedy film directed by Jared Hess. I think is really funny, but after watching five or six times, I don’t wanna watch it again.
The second movie is Life is Beautiful. This is a 1997 italian tragicomedy film directed by Roberto Beningni. My mother really loves it, she always cries and she is able to watch it one time and again.
Third movie is The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttom. This is a 2008 american romantic fantasy and drama film directed by David Fincher. This likes specially to my mother, mi sister and my brother. They flock to watch it and make food like french fries or somethig delicious.
Fourth movie is Kill Bill. Despite violence, we love this movie. This is a 2003 ameican martial arts film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. The bride’s story fascinates us along with his thirst for revenge.

I like all this movies, but if you watch it as often you get borred. 

Celtic Dream

Hello! Today I going to talk about a book that like very much. Is about an england cónsul that travel from England to the Congo and Bolivia-Perú,if  I remember correctly. His life is like that traditional life of an anthropologist of the last century; even when he has not the studies. His job consisted in supervise the labour of extraction of resources in the colonies of the empire, and watch that no injustice has been committed involving indigenous, obviously, the respect for the life of the indigenous, in the mayority of the places, was none. He sent reports to England. But, more that this reports, what impressed me most, was the experiences that he had in his travels, the things that he saw, had to did, had to hear, had to say.
After his travels, that taked many year of his life. He come back to England an participated in the liberation o Ireland.

The book and the history of this man is very interesting for the Anthropology, even when is a book wrote by some a writer. The book name’s is Celtic Dream for Mario Vargas Llosas.

American Journal of Phisycal Anthropology

Hello again, today I want to talk a little about my carrer. Next year I have to choose mencion. In anthropology we have the option to study archaeology, social or physical anthropology, I am between the last two options. About this, I want to tell you about a class and some web sites that interest me. During this semester we had to do an investigation from the fisical anthropology about the violation of the human rights and violence, and it was interesting read some papers (a lo of they in english) about the topic. The web site is the American Journal of Phisycal Anthropology, is this page are many papers from many journal, and is a good place for obtain good scientific information
The topic that we develop was relationated with the exumation of individuals in Spain. The corps were from the people that died during the civil war. This is still a sensitive subject for the society.

Even when the next year I don’t know what I going to do, it was a good experience can learn this kind of topic and some areas of development of the physical anthropology

Free time

There are a lot of things that you can do with your free time. What I like, among other things, is play the guitar.
Play any musical instrument sometimes is hard, but I think the guitar is easy because you can be perfectly self-tauht. Besides, guitar is not an expensive instrument. Ok, a cheap guitar will not have the best quality, but you can begin to learn.
Besides, I think guitar is a very good musical instrument to learn because you can play your favourite songs. Play and sing it is very funny, I love it.
By the other way, What I’m doing with my free time is learning to play viola. It is a very similar musical instrument to violin, but is more deep than it. I think the viola sound is very sweet and nice, but it’s so hard. 

I play two musical instruments, one is very easy, the other is so hard, but I like both.

A dictatorship

Well, today I going to talk to you about our history, about some moment that changed radically the course of of our lives.

This picture represent the attack to the Palacio de la Moneda, the president house. This mark the start of a serie of changes in Chile with the dictatorship of Pinochet.
All the advanced and development of the chilean people is destroyed until the root. Pinochet started a systematic persecution of the people and installed a political of terror in Chile. The legacy of the dictatorship is the constitution, with it’s laws, that reproduce a serie of injustice with the chilean people.
In Chile, the dictatorship not only bring us pain and death, he brought a number of structural problems that today we are fighting to change.

My Home

Today I want to tell you about the best place of the world. This place is called Alto del Carmen.
I live there, with my family (my mother, my young sister and my young brother).
In Alto del Carmen lives almost five thousand persons. Is ubicated in north of Chile, in the third region of Atacama. Despite being a dry place there are many trees, flowers, and a river where children play in the summer. In this time; the summer, arrive a lot of people to work in the grapes. There are many farmers who grow grapes and then exported it to countries like Japan, United States, China or Germany. For this reason people ern a lot of money here.
In the winter, however, the situation is different. There are very few people, because there is not work, but for me is the best time because rain, and four years ago it snowed. It was so beautifull.

I reaffirm it, is the best place of the world, is my home.

My favorite piece of technology

Sometimes, when I`m bored, I usually ask myself which is the best technological invention. Conclusion is, definitely, I can`t decide about that. It´s a hard decision because there are a lot of things I use every day, every moment, and always are very useful. However, I thought for a long time a super list of very of best inventions.
First, for me, is internet. We have a lot of things to do, to look for, to learn. I love it, because it seems to me we can access knowledge that were previously restricted.
Second, in my list is the refrigerator, because keeps food fresh and allows ice.
Finally, is a thing that is known in Spanish as ‘calientacamas’. I am dependent on it, because I usually feel very cold and I don`t like it.

My expectations for a new semester

In the university, the work that teacher give us is much. For this reason, the last semester was very stressful and complicated. My marks were not very good and I had some difficulties to deliver the work on time.
However, I must say that I have a great responsibility in this situation, because I was very disorganized, I missed to classes often and I studied little. So, for this semester, my expectations are be responsible, sleep early, get up early every day, including weekends,  be punctual and do things on time.

I think that if I fulfill my expectations I should not give exams at the end of semester, and I will have more vacation days.
