Books!

Through the books, we can know a lot of stories, wether about fiction or reality stories. I don’t have a favourite one, because I think every book has things that make it special. However, I like a lot a book called “The tunnel”. This was written by Ernesto Sabato, an argentinian writer. This book talks about a man that has a romantic obssesion with a woman; I can’t tell you the end, but it is a little bit unexpected and hard for both principal characters. It’s a book to think about the things we are doing wrong and try to fix it.
Another book that I really like is “The house of the spirits”, by Isabel Allende. Maybe she’s my favourite author, because I love the way she writes and her stories are amazing.
I start to read books since I was a little kid, because in my school, it was obligatory to read one book a month. There, we had to read specially novels, so I think that’s why I enjoy reading them so much (although now we have to read about other themes at the university).

I’d like that every village, commune or city has a library, with a lot of  books, specially for kids, because they should learn the “art” of the reading since they are little.

France, here I come!

I've always wanted to visit Europe, but especially France; when I watched Amelie movie, I fell in love with it. This is not a very large country, but it has a beautiful architecture, which is demonstrated in buildings like the Palace of the Louvre and the well known Eiffel Tower, one of the most famous modern buildings in the world.

I would love to go to this country because I like its culture, the way that they stimulate the tourism and the most important thing to me: their language. I’d really like to learn French, I think it is a lovely language, but also difficult to learn.  

When I get my degree and my own money, I want to travel there at least for a month and visit each corner of the country. But I’d just like to go for visit, because I want to work here in Chile. Maybe I would take some French course to be able to communicate with French people during my stay. I hope to carry out this travel some day and fulfill my dream of visiting France, its culture and its people. 


I hope you like this country as much as I like :)

Studying in christmas time...

When we had no classes since Juny until November of this year, because we were mobilized, I never thought that we would have the second term. We had  a referendum in the faculty to decide this topic; in this moment won the option "no", so I thought that it would be the final decition. But about two week after, people in the faculty started to think about to go back to classes again, because the situation with the student's benefits was bad. Finally, we returned to classes.

Now we have classes the whole week, except Thursday, because that is the protected block for the mobilizations. Besides, before we get to classes again, we put some guarantees. Some of them were that it coudn't be more than three evaluations per subject, the attendant of the classes would be free and the teachers would reduce the academic charge. I hope in this term they fulfill the conditions, because we want to continue with the mobilizations. I hope that this is a good term too, I mean, that my classmates and me can get a lot of knowledges about our carreer and that we can pass all the subjects. Also, I hope that the term doesn't be so hard, because in January the weather is worst than in December and it is not very easy to study when it's hot, at least for me, because I don't get concentrated.

The subjects that I taked this term were Methodoly of social investigation II, Social Psicology, Statistics I, Social history of Latin America, Philosophy os Social Sciences, and English IV. I hope to do it well and pass them all.

About studying on summer or christmas time, while most of people are on vacations, it doesn't complicate me very much, but I get a little bit sad, because I didn't get the christmas spirit that I get every year. But it's ok, there are a lot of moments that we can share with the family.
