POST 10: BLOGGING EXPERIENCE

At the beginning of the subject I was believe that my writing skills was very good, but taking this skills and try to carry to the English language was a challenge. My English vocabulary is quite extensive, but the domain of the tenses takes me a really effort because I ussually get confused and mix the tenses, but with the practice of the blogs I become more conscience of the importance of the tenses and how developed some strategies… like google translator. The topics to developed in class was very funny, I remembered some funny stories and anecdotes, from this point of view, learning became more didactic and the challenge of translating a story, an opinion or a review of a film became easier when one is interested in the subject or has some degree of mastery of it, it becomes easier to articulate a text, it was a good working tool.   The methodology of reading the others blogs gives me a better perceptions of my classmates, let me know them better, surprise me ...

This semester, I was looking forward to some subjects like script writing, unfortunately they were not what I expected, to my surprise one of the subjects that went unnoticed the most was my attention and has been so far one of the most enriching.   C ritical theories is a subject that we share together with the career of journalism, is based mainly on the study of different schools and currents of thought. These currents, in turn, are mainly focused on critical thinking towards the concepts of modernity, art and the media, as well as industries that have taken a place at the top of the culture and manage to polarize the contents. My class is taughtby Professor Ossandón, a somewhat old teacher, but with a wide knowledge, hisclass is very interesting, although taking the rhythm requires a lot of concentration, usually I participate a lot in it because it requires reflection and skills that are not usually strengthened in a mostly practical career. It was also the space to sh...

 There was a time, a chaotic era, called the decade of the 90s. at this time there was a little boy who enjoyed watching movies and cartoons, and one of his favorites ones was “GARGOYLES”, a cartoon about a group of gargoyles came from the medieval times, frozen in cold stone by a thousand years, become to life to this time and wake up in NY.

This series show me a kind a story that I will love until now (like Vikings or Game of thrones) put together drama, dark characters without fear to show it to a kid, because they not stupid. This series, like many others put the bases to the filmmaker that I want to become, I think that nobody grew up, we just forget that we are children.

Here was taken this photo, a small island that did not appear on the maps, in which we were alone for miles around, just three friends, the warmth of the wine in the summer and the immensity of the sea and the sky...

A character belonging to a comic and a film; The comedian belongs to a group of heroes called Watchmen, an alliance of masked heroes trying to fight crime, unfortunately, like many of the characters of our beloved Allan Moore (the creator) the comedian is a bipolar being, willing to do good exerts an enormous power that surpasses him, seeing the most brutal face in the world ends up despising the human being, and above all the woman, becomes a monstrosity; strong and violent ascends more and more in a spiral of violence, violations and murders, including the woman who was expecting his own son. The brutality of their surroundings allow this man, as the incarnation of the worst anti-values ​​of society, to be an agent of order and to be rewarded for his atrocities, because he is the greatest example of the patriot of the 60s. Above all, a memorable character, as hated as he is loved, nevertheless, a monster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qt1jYf-D4p0 ...

My awesome Motorcycle! It is a Renegade Sport 200, a really good machine, I bought it to a friend around two years ago; It is powerful and fast, I can go at 110 km/h without problems! I really love it.   I used it to go anywhere when I was in countryside because the transport there is not good.   I love to travel and take long road trips, like going to the Pichilemu Beach or the Rapel Lake, it`s a really cheap way to travel, I like listen music while drive by the road, you can feel the energy of the engine and his sound. I can`t have it here where I`m living because I don`t have space, I really miss it, I learned a lot of things of mechanical since I have it, like changing the oil or fixing it, It is a really fun piece of technology .
