Monday Blogs: My experience about it

Since i joined to the english class, i started to write blogs all weeks, about different subjects like the places i would like to visit or my favorite music, etc. I think about this experience in general that is a great way to improve your english in varied aspects of the life, because you have to write your thoughts in the foreign language. I enjoyed so much doing it, i feel that i developed a little bit my skills in english, at least the basic tools to keep a conversation in this language, and express what i feel and my opinions with other people around the world.

All the subjects that i write about were good, i would like to include in the future more feedback with the teacher in relation to the grammar, because i think that is an important aspect of speak and write english, and if you do it wrong you couldn't communicate properly with other people. Other important aspect of the blogs is that you can read other posts and comment it, so you can interact with the classmates and with the teacher, making possible the communication between the people. I would like to write about the experience so far in the university.

I enjoy studying "Destrezas"

The University is very hard when you cannot organize your time to do all the things that you have to, and the others that you LIKE to do: sports, hang out with friends, etc. I have subjects that i hate, like chemistry (but i have to studying it), and other that i enjoy to study when i have to, or just to learn about my future profession: "Destrezas".

This subject is about different thing that you have to know if you are a dentistry, (and it is a subject focused in the future career), like oral cavity anatomy, tooth care, a little bit of public health, the inputs that you will use, and other logic things. I enjoy studying it because you can know about the things that you will use almost all your life and it prepares you to use that. Maybe the other subjects allows you to know important things too; if you don't know anatomy, you will damage your patient or if you don't know physics you will not do a properly repair the jaw from your patient; i mean all the subjects are fundamental to the exercise of the profession, but "Destrezas" take you closer to what you relly will be your profession.

Best Places to visit in the south of Chile: Malalcahuello

Lonquimay volcano

The south of chile is one of my favorite places to visit during the holidays, specially the ninth region (because is the place where i'm living) because is the most beautiful places due his wild life and millenary trees. I have the oportunity of visit this place and, trust me, it's a amazing experience.
Located in the ninth region is Malalcahuello, a small town that welcome hundreds of people in the winter and summer season, and is known because fifteen kilometers to the north is the Lonquimay

volcano, an active one, and you can climb to the peak of the volcano. In the winter, all the ground get covered with snow, and the place turns to white. You can practice all kind of winter sports or just have some fun in the snow with family and friends. Other thing you can do in the park, which is named National Park Conguillio, is walk around the trails and see all the wild life that live there. In the night you can visit the hot springs and have a relaxing time with your partners while the snow is falling outside, with some snacks and drinks.

Career related website: U-Cursos

One thing that you had to check all day when you study in the University of Chile is U-Cursos. Is a website when all the academic stuff is: marks, exam information, study material, etc. Also it's the website you use when you have to talk to a teacher. I visit U-Cursos almost everyday, when i have to study for an exam, i visit U-Cursos to know the items that you have to know for the exam. You can personalize it, choosing the stuff that you like to see everytime that you visit; there is a feature called "Comunidades", there is publicated all the news and non-academic things like music events or discussions. Also has a forum that allows you to interact with students from other faculties and share whit them all kind of stuff, even sell and buy things you don't use anymore. I have to say that i don't like U-Cursos because it reminds me that i don't have much time to spend doing other things like go to cinema or to a concert. Whatever, the link is www.u-cursos.cl 

My favorite Music

Since i was a little kid, my parents induced me to listen music, or at least listen the music that they liked. When i was a teenager i started to listen the music that i like and did some research about some bands or music genres that i listen in the radio or in other media. Few years ago, walking down the street, suddenly a whisper entered to my ears, it was a warm melody, i felt like i was dancing in that moment, that music is named Funk. Searching in internet some bands i found: Parliament Funkadelic; Earth, Wind and Fire, etc, but a band that called my attention was a national band that is called Los Tetas. Their sound is the best i've ever heard in a band of that style, they combine the perfect sounds to create the right melody, to chill out a few minutes. The song that i most like from they is "Ven a Bailar" from the album called "Independiente".

My favorite picture

My favorite picture was taken by a friend after the new year party, the first day of january, in my hometown: Angol. It shows me and my brother sitting in the grass, resting after the night's party. First of all, with my brother (and some friends) share so many experiences to tell you in this post; we spend a lot of time together doing stupid and funny things or just hanging out in my house, so i'm goign to tell you just a little bit of what happen that day. I like this photo because that day we did a lot of things, especially in the afternoon and night. My family and friends represent an important part of my life, so have the chance to share with them important things give me a lot of happiness. That day we dance all night long so the day after we were very tired.

My experience at "Mechoneo"

The days before the "mechoneo" i felt very scared, because i saw a pictures with people doing very sick things, like kissing a pig's head or crawling on garbage. I always carried with me an extra outfit, in case that the "mechoneo" was that day. I was "Peron"

Juan Domingo Perón 

I was in the classroom, suddenly the door opened and masked people came in with a bottle with putrid material inside. Some of this people was cutting the clothes and the rest was painting the body of the rookies. When all the "mechones" was covered in poop, we started to ask for money in the streets along the day.

When i finished the day, i give three thousand pesos to the student center. With a hose and cold water i washed my body and put on the replacement clothes. That day was a great day for me, something that definitely i will remember all my life.
