My english experience

At the University, it’s an obligation to pass four levels of English in your career. The English is a tool in our careers that it`s useful to read a lot of papers and essays like this, so the university bring us this language to become easier our life. This year I passed to level four in my English class, but all the work that I did in all this time generate a lot of benefits and useful tools that allow to me develop like a student and like a person. So in this essay, I will tell you about my English experience at the university.

At the first year of my career, I was in level two of my English class, this level was so easy to me, because I came from a bilingual school (well, the English was not my strong topic), and the English that teach in this level was so basic, like learn to see the time or learn some expressions related with travels or moments in your life (like meetings or comments about the weather, etc.). But, since I pass to level three, my life changed. We started to write in a blog, and this was so useful to practice and learning more about vocabulary and grammar.

Well, this year I’m in level four with a teacher called Rosa Zagal, she correct our grammar, vocabulary, expressions talk, etc. I think that this year was the most productive compared with the last year or the past semester. Apparently, I learned this year and this semester a lot of things about English, now, I can talk with fluency and I have less mistakes in grammar. I don’t know if this knowledge I learned in the University or in my home, but until now the English have become more and more useful in my life.

Well, now I can see tv series without subtitles and I can understand at less the main idea, I can read the nutritional information when this one was in English, I can talk better with my American cousin and I can read the papers of archaeology or anthropology with more facility. So the English at the university was so useful to me, in these three classes I learn a lot about this language and I knew a lot of students of this faculty too.

My experience in High school


hello friends,
today i'm going to write about my experience in my high school, called Pedro de Valdivia. I haven't good feelings when I remember my school, because I enter to this school when I was 15. All my old friends was in my old school, called "Francisco de Miranda", this is a extreme different school, because I went with casual clothes and the teachers was very close with their students, in fact, I can treat their called for their names. But, in my new school, I was to put a uniform (an horrible uniform, green color with a small tartan skirt) and the teachers was very formal, I was to treat their like a "miss" or "professor".
My favorite subject was history, my teacher was called Carlos Torres, and he prepared us to have a great mark in the PSU. But, I think that this class are not very interesting, because all the test was an alternative test, no one have a little of owns reflections or our thoughts about history. I know, my thoughts about my high school are not very positives, in spite of this things, I also live good things, like my relation with my teacher of biology or some friendships that I kept until now, and I remember my class with so much love, their are a good friends and their are a beautiful persons.

In my high school, the only technologic thing was the computer’s classroom. But, if you wanted use it, you have to ask for the librarian.

My education in the high school was very important to me, because I think that in my school, I learn to study, and to be a responsible person, and to exceed the bad things and make me a stronger person.

My favorite movie


Hello friends,

today I'm going to write about my favorite movie. Really, I don’t have a favorite movie, so I’m going to write about a movie that I really like and I saw it last week, it is called “Se7en”. In this movie two famous actors act, Brad Pitt (called Mills) and Morgan Freeman (called Sommerset). Their characters are cops, specifically homicide detectives, that investigate a lot of cases about murders connected with the Seven Deadly Sins. The first case is related to the gluttony, and the murdered person was an obese that eating a lot of food died. The serial killer tortured his victims represents the deadly sin that their was committed, and this killer was a psychopath called John Doe.
The story take place in USA, in a dangerous city. My favorite part is the final, because is unexpected and showed the sick mind of John Doe. The last murder was against the Mill’s wife, and he went mad because of anger and killed the serial killer with his gun. With these, all the murderers was fulfilled, and in spite of his dead, John Doe won.

I liked this movie because take your attention all the time, it’s one of the first movies that involved a serial killer, and the history was very exceptional. The picture of the murderers was very shocking, and the performance of Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman are brilliant.

In the movie, if I could change any part, would be the final, because in spite of this is one of the best parts of the movie, it was so tragic.

Santiago

Hello friends, today I’m going to write about my beautiful city called Santiago de Chile. Santiago is the capital of Chile, and here most of the people of my country live.
If you visit my city, you can go to the “Parque O’Higgins”, there are a lot of grass and you can fly a kite or make a picnic or enjoy with your pets and your friends with a lot of drinks and food. Also, you can go to San Cristobal Hill, to the statue of the virgin on top of San Cristobal Hill. And when you go down the hill, you can go to Bellavista, a neighborhood of Santiago that has many pubs and restaurants. This is so fun, because after a lond and hard exercise you can go to Bellavista’s bar to drunk a beer.
Another place to go is the government house called “La Moneda”. This is a historic center, and you can know more about the history of Chile if you go there.
And finally, you can go to the “Plaza Ñuñoa”, this is a square located in the neighborhood of Ñuñoa, and there are a lot of pubs, ice-cream parlour, restaurants and places to have fun with yours friends. Also, there are a fountain and there are the Ñuñoa’s municipality.
Well, these are my favorite places of Santiago and if you came here you can visit these places and a lot of more like the Mahuida’s Park or the biggest fun park of Santiago called Fantasilandia.

Good Luck!

A beautiful country


Hello Friends, today I’m going to write about one of my favorite hobbies in the world, travel. I'm addicted to travel, I always have the feeling to run away of my country, of my house. I like to travel because it is nice to see new places. One of the countries that I would like to visit is Mexico, because I think that it’s a beautiful country which has a lot of culture monuments of our ancestors. There are the bases of the American culture, with civilizations such as the Maya and the Aztec.
The things that I know about this country, is that it have a lot of beaches like “playa del Carmen”, the capital is Ciudad de México and there are world-famous monuments: the pyramids like Chichén-Itza.
When I go to México, I want to stay with my cousin that is Mexican, and travel around the country and to know different cities like “Ciudad de México”, Tijuana, Chiapas, etc.
I liked to study anthropology in this country when I finish my career in Chile, because it’s a good chance to know a different culture and many people said me that the Anthropology School its one of the best of the world.
Well… that it’s all! See you later!

My experiece during the first term of 2010

hello friends!
welcome again to my blog, this time, i'm going to write about my first term.
For the earthquake, we enter to the University with a month of delay, then everything began so fast. We had to read millions of papers, books and articles, and at the end of semester, we had to give a lot of test and I slept not much because I was studying or making a job. I went to the gym one month, and I felt very well because I felt more flighty, in the gym I went to funky classes and dance classes. Also I to get used to not drink coca-cola (I was addict to this drunk), and I to gain to take a healthy life.
In generally, my semester was bored, because nothing exciting happened, and I had to studying a lot, I learn a lot of things of my classes like materialism (anthropologist that was materialism term and Marx), prehistory or statistics.
And as well I went to different kinds of parties (in the university and with my school friends), and that was so cool.
In the past semester, I sold Chilean candies, called “alfajores”, and I earn a lot of money, it was like my little business.
Well, that its all… see you later!
