Post #10: English Languages challenges

Hello. Today I´m going to talk about my English Language Challenge My experience learning English at university have been very well. I have learned a lot in this year. I sometimes believed that it would be very dificult learn a new language , but this have not been thus, because I have dedicated it time. With regard to use of blogs I consider that is a good tool to keep learning English, because we are constantly reading and writing in English, which makes it a little more everyday. In my own experience this has helped me a lot to acquire vocabulary, to learn grammar and new expressions. Besides to think in English. But sometimes the topics costed me a little because I didn´t know that write. On other hand one aspect that I should improved is speak more, because I find it very hard the pronuntiation and to think in english. To improved this I would like to meet and talk with people who know English to get to converse fluently. In general I try to use the english ou...

Post #9: Changes to my study programme

Hello ! In general I have liked my study programme of plastic arts. The subjects are divided into two types: We have practical subjects that are the main one of the our curriculum in where we work in workshop and theoretical subjects that basically is history of art and aesthetic. With regard to practical subjects I like how it work, because it are semi annual and each of us choses the workshop that want to go and If we don´t like the teacher or teaching methods we can choose other. While the theoretical subjects are the same for all. This is something that I don´t like, because are obligatory and little interesting in their teaching methods.  In this sense I would like very much to open different lines of topics in the subjects and we could choose according to our interest, as with the career of History and Arts Theory. According to our workload this is usually not much, we usually work on personal projects and will depend on ourselves how much we will work. This is...

I know  that in January I´m going to work and in February I will go to somewhere, maybe to Punta Arenas. Also I would like to go to south of Chile to see my family and friends.

Post #7: "My favorite book"

Imagen
Hello, in this blog I´m going to talk about my Favorite blog During the last years I have read a lot of books by Casilda Rodrigañez. Casilda is Spanish author that write about birth, maternity and female sexuality. I like so much read her books because she have many information about female sexuality oppression and its history. as women sometimes we know   very little about ourselves and with she I have learned a lot. So one of my favorite book is "El asalto al Hades" wrote by her and I recomend a lot.   With regard to the type of books that I like to read these are always books whose authors have a different way of seeing the world and therefore do not belong to any literary industry, they do not reserve the copyright and change the perspective of see things. The last book I read, was not Casilda Rodriganez, but "Una realidad Aparte" of Carlos Castaneda. This book I liked so much because is a mixture of  autobiography, hallucinogen, toltec...

Post #6: Postgraduate studios

Hello!! For me, talking about the future is difficult and much more if I want to study or not in an institution. I do not really want to take a postgraduate course, it's not something I'm thinking about, the only thing I would like to do for now is take a pedagogy course that does not last more than a year or study some relevant things with dance. I do not have  intention to continue studies in an institution. Regarding pedagogy I would like to take it because I think it is an alternative to live considering that I study plastic arts and the environment where you can work is not very varied. In addition, I have always liked to teach and share the things I learn to do. I have thought about going to study in Argentina because it is very close to Chile, it offers me new perspectives and because the cost of studying is very accessible, as well as having the experience of studying abroad. With respect to the study environment I am not a very good friend of technology and ...

Post #5 My future Job

Hello! Talk about my future job is difficult for me because nowadays I like do many things to which I dedicate myself. On one side I would like to have a workshop where to work. I am studying plastic arts and I have specialized in goldsmith and textile and I would love produce works of this type in my own workshop with all the tools of the world. But also in this time I have been learning about “Lauderia” and it would be amazing to continue learning and working from this. I really love make works with my own hands. And on the other hand I practice circus and I would like so much can I dedicate myself to be a circus artist. Although I am already doing it, I would like to professionalize myself even more to be able to create and participate in contemporary montages and presentations. With the circus I would love to travel and live from this, both learning and showing my work. And finally I would also like to study pedagogy in order to teach and transmit everything I kn...

Hello!!! My favorite food is the pastel de choclo, but is difficult to me eat it because I am vegetarian and at all the places or restaurants they prepare this dish with meat. For this reason almost the only time I eat is when I prepare myself or somebody prepare it for me. I love when my mom prepare this dish because It has a lot of work and she cooks delicious . Besides you have to add that is a summer dish, so the option to eat are few for me, so I enjoy a lot when we are in summer and start to emerge the first corns. I enjoy a lot cook and I think that always I am cooking because I worry a lot of my nutrition and because I Believe that  food is very important, besides of this way I give my affection to people who I love. I enjoy cook sweet food like cakes, ice cream and desserts but always without sugar. Sometimes it is difficult because I dont know with what to replace it with although there are several options. For this I am not going a lot to restaurants, b...
