Hello Miss and classmates!
Well, the year is finishing, and our experience in the subject of English too :(
Really, the English for me is so difficult, because I feel that it isn't a language for me, but I think that with this subject in the University we can practice our vocabulary, and our ear to understand this language.
I think that the subject, obviously, can be better, but the introduction of the blog and the topics about we write are very interesting and help to our education.
In my case, I need improve my vocabulary and the nerves when I must to speak in English, I think that those nerves is because I don't feel sure abut my knowledge about the language, and I think I'll overcome abut this never! haha, no, really with the experience in the language and the practice.
Outside the English class, I use a lot of English listening to music mainly British and American rock, reggae also Central American, which are almost always sung in English. I also see about five U.S. series so when I see them try captioned associate words with audio.
Anyway, I think it's very important to know English because it is necessary for further studies and also for day to day, considering that many of the texts we have read in undergraduate are in English, as most of the papers are written in this language, which is considered universal.
It was a great experience to have English in college, I started in high school and continued in anthropology, meeting teachers in their own style encouraged me to learn more of this language, which in principle do not like a lot and I have difficulty to me.
Well, I hope you are well, we all pass the course and then finish the studies. A lot of strength and support for the girls of  Educa and that the fight continue!



The necessary dirty money

Hello!
Today I'm going to talk to you about a topic that I hate, the money!
Money corrupts people, makes them out of their basic principles and enmity. however, the world has imposed a system in which the person has no money, can not live in it. I wish I could live in a world without money, where the products were extracted from the nonprofit land, but no, we are in a world where employers have exorbitant profits and we must pay it, almost without question.
Many people in my life I have questioned my hatred for the money, because they think I'm very idealistic, I believe that the money, if it is necessary, but do not give their life for it, because the money used to live, not live for the money. In my case, I everything I buy, I buy in the cheapest places, mine is Chinese clothing, second hand hopefully, vegetables, buy them at the show when I can, always trying to save, and I get by my parents and I have won scholarships in college and other organisms.
If I were a millionaire, it will be impossible, I would do charity and non-profit-making organism, dedicated to children, indigenous, peasants, etc.. the most marginalized by society, because I feel this is a very inhospitable world for many of them and they need a place to host them and report on their status in society
On the other hand, if I need to pawn something in my life I have today, would the computer, although it is too important to my college life, but it is the only possession I have today.
OK! Bye before I get angry more!

A Santiago Times article about the mapuche's hunger strike


The anthropology studies all about the culture of the groups, and all phenomena that affect the groups, and obviously the society is a agent of change and mobility in the social groups.
In the case of Mapuche, the role of Anthropology in Chile is very important, this discipline could be show factors that influence in the public opinion the information management in the mass media.
Therefore, I chose an article of 2010: “Chile’s lesser told story: the mapuche hunger strike”, this paper describes how the media has covered only the rescue of the thirty-three miners from the San José’s mine, ignoring the hunger strike that the Mapuche conducted in the same amount of time, the article describes too the process that led to reach the Mapuche hunger strike.
From the Anthropology can study why the mass media only pay attention to rescue of the miners, from a cultural perspective. Considering the influence from the State in the Chilean mass media and the low public approval for President of citizenship, doing a great paraphernalia, extolling the figure of the President and some of his ministers, as a great leader in saving miners, putting aside every day of hunger strike of the Mapuche, who believe they have received an unfair trial and deafness by government.
Well, this subject is for a big investigation. good weekend!

My best Holidays in Las Cruces


Hi Misses, today I'm goint to talk to you about my best holidays
It was in the year 2008, when I was in 4th of secondary, and we had our school trip, we went to Las Cruces a small town in the 5th region of Chile. From there we traveled to El Tabo, Isla Negra, El Quisco, San Antonio and others towns, but the important are not the places, but the people, because I went with my best friends from the school, moreover it was our last trip like a year, and we had a great time!
But, in that travel I had my best experience with a person in my life, I knew Nicanor Parra there, my favorite (anti)poet, I knew him with two friend and a teacher, and really he was very friendly with us, but we were could not take a photo him, because he feels that the photos take out some of his soul, but this experience with him was really legendary.
Moreover we went to Pablo Nerudas’s house in Isla Negra, where is the Neruda’s tomb with his wife. This house is really amazing; it’s full of different things! Shells, mermaids of the boats, bottles, etc.!
Happy weekend! :D

Hello!

Today I'm going to talk to you about my future job, since the childhood our around starts to question us about our future, our aspirations and objectives for the life. When we are in the adolescence this question is stronger than before, because the society, in Chile, asks for us one decision when the secondary is over.

When I take the decision of come in the university I knew that this decision could be my future, so I tried to take this decision with seriousness. I knew that I would want work with persons and try to help them with my job, even if it were a little bit.

I pretend have a job with social vocation, from he Anthropology I feel that it can be, because its a discipline with social contact, it can inform to the society of the realities of different social groups, that the society doesn't know, finding help from the State or other social actors.

For get to this purpose I should find a kind of job where I could make this, so the characteristics of my job have to be with social compromise, a non-profit-making organism, with job in places with poor persons, indigenous, country persons, and so on.

My strengths are my perseverance and honesty with the thing I want to do, moreover my social vocation, my empathy with the others and tolerance. My weaknesses are my strong character and my extreme sincerity that  upset to many people, so sorry for that.

I really hope in a couple of years can make my dreams in a job, but I'll work to live, but no live to work.

Bye, and good luck with the end of the semester!!

Our ecological conscience

Hi!
Today I'm going to talk to you about an interesting theme to me, the environment and its careful. I learnt environmentally friendly practices especially in my house, with my family or like an autodidactic, because the I obtained the ecological conscience when I was a girl with the plant we had in the house, like medicinal herbs,  vegetables, trees, flowers and bushes.
In my daily life, I make something about the recycling like make ecological bricks (eco-bricks), separate the organic trash with the objective of make compost and give back to the origin and re-use. Other thing I do is recycling clothes, buying in fairs, american clothes, and give or sell my clothes that I don't use. The paper and the cardboard, I give to the carton collector, so we can help a family too.
My favourite transport is the bike, I really love ride my bike, and if I don't have it close I prefer walk, because, specially in Santiago, the public transport and the streets are crammed full.
In this moment I'm not a member of an eco-organization, because I don't have time for other activities apart from the university, my family, travels and my mental health, haha, but I really would like be a member of organization like "Huerto Urbano" or "Huerto Regalentún" of the University.
My footprint I think is not many big, quite the opposite, because I use my foots and legs to transport myself, I use the electric energy mainly and I really everyday try to care my environment.
Santiago is a dirty city, because lack ecological culture, the careful about our environment, I think that when the garbage will be on our shoulders, the persons will take conscience.


House made with eco-briks :)
