AMERICAN HORROR STORY Good afternoon classmates! today I am going to tell you about my favorite TV series... American Horror Story One of my favorite hobbies since I was ten years old has been watching American TV series, I remember I always visited the cuevana website (xd) and my computer would be full of viruses hahahahaha I remember I was watching Fox and they gave a preview of the new TV series called American Horror Story and it was going to be a hit. I must admit that the preview scared me a little hahaha and the day of the premiere I didn't watch it XD. so I started looking for it on the internet and found https://cuevana3.io/. I think it was my downfall hahaha I could recommend other series, but I think the best is AHS because it has several seasons, but each of them is independent of the others and the main theme is horror, but more psychological and graphically we can see a lot of horror, blood and atrocities. It also rescues culture from different parts of...

Education 📚

Imagen
 Hi Miss and classmates!!! education itself is a privilege, but private schools do not offer a higher quality of education on the contrary, the vast majority of politicians in Chile come from private schools and are not quality workers hahahaha I feel that these types of schools just sell one more service (just like any other school), but at a higher price because it is really the teachers who are in charge of delivering quality. In public schools teachers are not seen as "one more" so they are in charge of delivering good education, values and vocation. I say this from my own experience, I have friends who were educated in private schools and they say that they only treat them like machines, zero sensitivity, no values, with the exception of religious schools that are finally companies with cute names.  I must also recognize that there are people coming from private schools with very good values, but generally these types of schools educate you with different purpos...

God is a woman?

 Hello Miss and classmates! It is difficult for me to talk about religion or any specific religion because I have never been part of one (I hope 8 years in an evangelical school will help me now hahahaha). Cccording to me the Abrahamic religions (and the most "important" ones) are the most distant from God because their only objective has been to limit people's freedom and impoverish them. However, there are many other (non-Abrahamic) religions that have been able to maintain a healthy balance between spirituality and the earthly, such as those coming mainly from Asian cultures. I think that when I was a child I participated in different religious ceremonies and the truth is that I felt alien to it, I was never interested or called attention to that spiritual dependence so I was determined atheist by default hahaha.  Besides, I always felt that in the name of God I had to limit my life or that of others, because that is what religions do, they impose their ideology o...

Chilean healthcare system

Imagen
 hello classmates and miss!!! I hope you have a very nice weekend My relationship with the Chilean health system is not very direct because I don't usually go to the doctor (I know, it's bad, but I don't like it), from my perspective I feel that going to the doctor doesn't make us sick much more, in every visit we are prescribed medication and that for me is unpleasant (I'm not antivaccine hahaha). Well, my criticism is also focused on the health care system in general because it is a real economic business, in fact, many times we are prescribed placebos!!!! In chile the health business is horrible!!! even more in public health, the waiting lists are eternal, but ONLY for poor people. My little brother suffers from a syndrome that directly affects his kidneys, but we didn't know it, so the doctors told us "it's an allergy, he should take corticoids" for a long time they told us the same thing. After we were infected with Covid-19 my little brother ...

Politics...

Imagen
Hello classmates... political system... I don't believe much in the Chilean political system, but well hahahahaha The political system from my point of view has been quite exclusive, indeed, I dare say that since the dictatorship it has not changed much. It continues to work for the country's elite. to be honest, i still believe the same since a some years ago, but i also feel that the very fact of living is doing politics because we are all totally different, we think differently and live different lifestyles. so we do politics day by day. In Chile I believe that the right to vote has been damaged mainly by the lack of confidence in those who have governed since we returned to democracy, most of them have been involved in corruption issues, abandonment of their positions, among others, so I wonder, will it be possible to trust again in new political representatives? From my point of view, no, but I also consider that it is extremely important to assert the right, if you do ...

the last blog :(

Imagen
Hi miss and classmates! hope you are well! finally this is our last blog :( but see you next semester hahahaha maybe.... I'm going to be quite honest, I really enjoyed the blogs because I felt like we got to know each other better (because the pandemic still exists) and I feel that it was an activity that "brought us closer", even though it was virtual. I think the blogs have helped me a lot to improve my English, particularly to write it and interact because I haven't practiced for a long time, besides I like English hahaha.  One of the great advantages of blogs is that it can be done in about two days, so we can think about what to talk about. mmm... I don't think I have any suggestions because I had too much fun writing the blogs hahaha but I think maybe in the previous course it should be incorporated because it is a very good complement.In my case I was able to strengthen my writing and reading If this is the last blog, hope you and your family are well. bye ...

[CYDA] "Crecimiento Y Desarrollo de Árboles"

Hello fellow English learners! I am going to tell you about a very interesting course (according to me hahaha). This fifth semester has been quite complicated, but I have enjoyed it a lot because I have learned many interesting and funny things. There is a very entertaining and amazing class, taught by Miss Karen Peña Rojas, the name of the class is "Growth and Development of Trees" where we learn mico and macroscopically how trees grow, their cellular structures and characteristics.  During this semester we learned about the different types of plant reproduction, the one I liked the most was plant micropropagation or in vitro cultivation. The truth is that during the classes I pay a lot of attention and I try to take notes and then study and sometimes do a little research about the contents.   Especially when they mentioned about in vitro culture, I was very interested so I researched about some experiments, I even joined Facebook groups hahahaha where they comment a lot...

[LS] Ladera Sur

Hello english classmates, I will talk you about one of my favorite websites so far.... Since I have access to the internet I have always tried to research about many things, in fact the first platform I used was "Mi primera encarta" hahaha but now my favorite website is Ladera Sur, although it does not help me much for my university assignments, I use it a lot to guide me in them because it has a lot of information related to the nature of Chile.  also there are publications from scientific sources.  On the Ladera Sur website you can find more than seven categories, my favorites are: Destinations, Photography and Articles   Another feature of  laderasur.com  is that it allows you to publish your own events (related to the content of the web page), I think it is quite good because it allows a greater dissemination of knowledge and attracts many people with the same interests.  You can also follow us through different platforms such as instagra...

MY FAVORITE PHOTO 📸

Imagen
Hello everyone! now I'm going to show you a picture that I like very much and that is in many places  Ufff... this picture was taken a long time ago and the truth is that it was lost for many years. I remember it was on October 21, 2005 when I lived in Curicó, I was in a very nice school and I was the tallest in the class hahahahaha.  That day we had to wear a costume because we went to a "march for the children" and I dressed up as a clown 🤡hahahaha in the picture is also the teacher Karla. I don't really remember who took the picture, but I think it was another teacher. I liked very much to participate in that school because it was very funny, once I was Santa Claus🎅 hahaha so the photo brings back very good memories. at that time I was five years old and nine months old, I was a baby👶 hahaha

When i was a child i wanted to be an agronomist. i was always collecting plants or planting seeds all over the place waiting for trees to grow. When I applied to the university my first choice was forestry engineering because it is what I really like and my second choice was biology pedagogy, I am studying forestry engineering at the moment because it is a career that focuses mainly on native flora and I can learn a lot about forests.  When I started studying at the university I met many people and places, I learned many interesting things, but then the pandemic and the virtual classes started, so the experience in the faculty only lasted 1 year. In the future I would like to work as a teacher in schools because I think it is a job with a lot of vocation, but first I must finish my current degree and then study a postgraduate degree in education.

I have always liked to listen to music and I also believe that headphones have been the best technological invention. when i was a child my grandparents gift me a headphones white that i liked because it were big and comfortabled. I think that headphones are very easy to use because you have to connect it to a music player like smartphone, tablet, computer, mp3 player and other mobile device (that can play music, podcast or radio). Currently i use headphone everyday, when i have a class, a phone call or listening to music. In the pandemic people use more this tecnological pice because the advance that have is impressionable, now you can find wireless headphones and every colors.  i like headphones because give me more privacity at the time of listen to music or when i am on a phone call. My life without headphones will be bored and very diferent in fact i cant imagine walking in the street and listening to music in a speaker,  its no my style.
