Evaluation of Blog Experience

The experience of this blog was good and gratifying. I believe that this activities are useful for us, because are instances in that the students can write personal things, such a opinions about differents themes, things that like us, and aspects that generally dont talk free at the university. I think that this blog is gratifying because we can talk in completely freedom, we can be ourselves in front of things that involve us. Also, the development of this blog was a great tool to learn and practice daily a little more English, which is a great help for all students. I must admit that at beginning I thought that this activity was just more work, but now I realize that I was wrong, since I do not think there is anything better than talking about the subjects that interest me, and at the same time practicing writing and pronunciation from language. In conclusion, this experience was excellent because it helped me considerably. It was a pretty good semester, since my classm...

Since I study in the university, I don’t have much time for myself, because in that institution I have had to occupy my free time in the week for my tests, works and presentations, so I don’t worry for cook some delicious plate to eat. However, I like very much the cuisine, and always that I have some time I try to cook with my father and mother. It’s very funny, because my parents like listen music while they cook like a Miguel Bosé, Marco Antonio Solís and Luis Fonsi, with his new theme “Despacito”. The recipe that I most do is spaghetti, because is a simple plate that requires a few time and is delicious. First, I boil a package of pasta with 2 letters of water and I add a pinch of salt and a little of oil. When the pasta is ready after 10 or 12 minutes, I add sauce of tomatoes and same accompaniment, like a meat, onions, peppers and garlic. This recipe is very simple, and is perfect for the university life, because it´s ready in few minutes. Before to serve, I add pinch of...

My indignation

I have always thought that I am a person who does not disagree with many things. However, the thing that really dislike me is the hypocrite people. When I was a kid, my mother always teaches me that the sincerity is the most important thing about social relations, because when the people lie frequently the trust is lost, and according to her, it hurts. Now that I’m older, I can understand that she tell men in that times. The hypocrite, superficial and prejudiced people bring nothing in your life, because the confidence is the most important thing in this world. I believe that that people will not get nothing with that attitude, and I think that a lot of these people can still change, and with this change a little part of world.

A Subject You've Enjoyed

The subject that I like in this semester is Photo-Journalism. In that class I’m with the teacher Miguel Ángel Larrea. Since I was a little kid I like the photography, and when I knew that I would have it as subject I was very happy. In this subject, the teacher teaches us all about it, like a the principal photo techniques, the different angles a picture can have, the importance of the lights and how they influence the quality, and also the different types of pictures . I believe that is very important learn about this, because with the photography I can make better my works in the university, such an informational notes, reports and interviews. I think that a good picture can better show the news that I reported, because it shows the principals elements that make it. For this, I believe that when I be a journalist in the future is very important that I have a lot of knowledge of photography, so this subject is very useful and interesting.

The Story of a Picture

Imagen
This photograph is very special for me. It was taken in the winter holidays of 2015 by Sebastian, my best friend. The photo shows a very relaxed moment with my friends Bastian and Bruno on the roof of a house in Curicó, in southern Chile. I remember that I was playing the ukulele and my friends sang with the rhythm of the Bruno’s yembe. I really love this photo, because from just seeing it I can remember the tranquility that was to be in that place. The cold mornings, the warm weather and nature made me feel alive, and even more so if it was with the company of good friends. I would like to go back to that place right now. Forget about all the problems and stress that is experienced in the city and just laughing with my friends
