My blog's experience

I enjoyed write in my blog. Basically, because I enjoy writing about interesting topics or garbage… Previously, I had a blog called “Vagas divagaciones vagas”. In this blog, I write my thoughts and reflections about experience in the world. Also, a friend and I created other blog called “No estamos ebrios”. This project blog consist in write anything topics but no seriously, in other words, we write idiot things. Finally, the project no functioned.
In my blog to english class, I wrote about my favorite music, the best place to go on winter holydays, Pierre Bourdieu, my hobbies, my experience in the earthquake, my favorite piece of technology, etc. I learned, in relative grades, to write and read in English. This blog helped me for to improve my terribly English.
I think that blogging is a good experience in general and for me. Basically because it permits writing and reading in English regularly. The interaction in English allows developing competences and dispositions respect to the English language. Therefore is a very good tools for the learning English.

The best place for to go on winter holidays

I think that the best place for to go on winter holidays is south of Chile, specifically 10th region. The 10th region of Chile has beautiful places, great towns and cities, and good people. Chile is localized in south of Latin-American, and limit with Argentina, Bolivia and Peru. The 10th region is called “De los Lagos”, and is between “De los Rios” and “Aysen del general Carlos Ibañez del Campo” regions. The principal cities and towns of the 10th regions is Osorno, Puerto Montt, Puerto Varas, Frutillar, Puerto Octay, Ensenada, Angelmo, Castro, Ancud between others.
I went to the 10 region some years ago. I visited a small town called “Río Negro”. But I also went to others places, for example the “Llanquihue” and “De todos los santos” lakes, Osorno and Puerto Montt. etc.
Specifically, my favorite place in 10 th region is “Llanquihue” lake. This lake is the biggest in Chile. This lake has very beautiful landscapes, for example, Frutillar, Puerto Varas, the Osorno volcano, and “Los saltos del Petrohue”.
I think back go to the 10th region, but in this opportunity I want to go Chiloe in specific. Friends and no friends tell me that Chiloe is a great and beautiful place for to go holidays, and I want corroborate in next year. But I not want visited only Chiloe, I went more places and enjoy with my friends.
In generally, I like the south of Chile. I think that north of Chile is very boring and ugly. I traveled to Copiapo three years ago. And, I corroborated that is a bad place for to go on winter holidays.

My favorite piece of technology






My favorite piece of technology is the computer. Basically because is a tool very complete for my request. The computer is a machine that processes of the information, very much information in the small proportion of the time. Therefore the computer permitted do very operations in one moment. For example, reading texts, playing games, talking to friends, etc.
Usually, I used to computer for doing works to university, read articles and books, listen my music, watch films and series, talk to my friends and very much things. The computer is very utile for me, actually is a tool very necessary for very much activities and jobs. But, much dependence of the computers is bad too, or can see film “I am Robot” of Will Smith… ahhaha
I received my computer in the 2002. Well, is very old in the computers time. Because the utile time of the technology is very short. But I made reparations and incorporate new components to my computer, etc.

Music

I enjoy listening music for study, when travel in the bus, or for to relax. I like very different kinds of music. I enjoy listening jazz, rock, funk, cumbia, cueca brava, etc. I like a specific kind of music in the particular context. For example, in a party I like the music dance tropic or regueton, but when I studying preferred jazz music.
My favorites groups of jazz are Louis Armstrong, Ray Charles, Hiromi Uehara, and Akineton Retard. And my groups of rock are The Beatles, Red hot chili peppers, Queen, Yes, Tool, Dio, and Audioslave. And my favorites groups of cumbia and cueca are Chico Trujillo, Sonora Conmoción, Los Trukeros, Los Chileneros, Los Porfiados de la Cueca and Los Chauchas. I was integrant of Los Chauchas. They are a musical group, and play cueca brava. I danced with them for a time. It is group very great though they don’t a group not very know.
Somtimes, I like watch music videos very absurd. For example, “delfín hasta el fin”, “trololo”, “trigreza del oriente”, and others.

Pierre Bourdieu


Intellectually, I admire Pierre Bourdieu. He is an important sociologist and anthropologist of the second part of twenty century. He was born in 1930 in France; he studied philosophy in the École Normale Supérieure. Next, in Algeria he did very good social researches in a statistics’ center. Then he made an excellent career in the intellectual world. He published many interesting books, for example, “The practices sent”, “The sociologist office”, “The reproduction”, and “the distinction”.
Bourdieu is a very important academic in the social theory area. His contributions are very important to develop a contemporary social knowledge. He made a sociological theory influenced by the classical sociologists, in other words, Durkheim, Weber and Marx. His theory conceived the society as a social space where the people fight for specific capitals, for example, economic capital, cultural capital, social capital and symbolic capital.
I like Bourdieu because he is the intellectual critic of the contemporary society. His work refers to symbolic power, social domination, and cultural criticism. His work inspirits for me.

My favourite hobbies

My favourite hobbies is, in first place, watch tv, films, series, or anything. I enjoy a good film. My favourites films have philosophises reflexion, interesting shociological elements or simples entertainment. For example, I like “a clockwork orange”, “hombre mirando al sudeste”, the watchmen, the hangover, Borat, little miss sunshine, the devils rejects, the inglorious bastards, etc. In second place, one of my favourites hobbies is sleep…jajaj. Sleeping is a guilty pleasure for me. I can sleep in anywhere, in the bus, in the library and including in the classes. Sometimes it is something that I cannot avoid. Of all forms, I think that the people must sleep less. In other words, the people must need three hours of dream to be excellent form… Mmm is very bad idea.

I was to voluntaries work in the south, specifically in the town of Tirua. Tirua is a town of the Bio Bio´s region, located in the coastal zone.
