Hi teacher and classmates today I will talk about my experience in this class. 

In my case, learning English is a problem, little by little I became familiar with this language but determination is necessary not to forget what one has learned and the truth I have heavy memory.

I think that learn it, is option of each one and I do not like that in our university that it be a obligatory class a mandatory subject and in schedule that complicated me. 

In my experience, blogging is a great tool for this class. I consider it a good method by which the student can learn about grammar, plus it is a funny way and the dynamics to understand.

I like to work on these blogs, but I think it is not necessary to come and write to class, because students can do from home, also live very far from this place and I just come for it.

Now I can understand some sentences and communicate a few better ones, but it's still a quick writing problem and with out watching the traslator, although I can recognize more word, but I would like  it in the classes to correct them, to identify mistake and the bad use of the words

It is a difficult lenguaje for me and the only way to learn it, is to practice all the days in different ways, for example talking with your friends, reading web pages on internet, listening songs, etc. 

Wich I don’t do on this moments,  but  I tried in more than one occasion
I hope on a future, can learn the necessary for understand some text and have a better comunication

Hi classmates, I’m Almendra and today i will talk about mi study programme. First of all I would like to say that I am very happy with everything that I’ have learned during the last time in the university, never the less, there are some aspects of my learning that I think that could, or shoud, be different. For example I have some days that my schedule goes from 8 am to 8 pm , making hard for me to have a proper performance to the end of them. On the other hand there are some subjects that from my point of view only make creation processes more difficult, like English, because it has no relation to the essence of what we study, and in the end it only means a waste of time and requires dedication that I could use in more important subjects. Respect to the workshops, I think they lack of proper machinery to do the most basic jobs, meaning that many times we have to find a way to carry out specific works in other places, or that we just get stuck in some projects. At the same time, it seems to me like the infrastructure was never well thought at all, and the only thing new in that matter are the bathrooms and the casino. By last, my workshop teachers are good guides and are always present in the processes that we carry through, although there’s also some teachers that might be a little indifferent to their matters and to their students too.

Hi teacher and classmates. Today I will talk about my summer plans.

I usually program  the holiday with  time ahead, because are the most awaited moment of all year, but this summer I haven't think to travel, considering that I have unfinished plans  in house of last summer.

 The last year, together with  friends we dedicated during all summer  to build   a work spaces (workshop) that it's needed much more time than we thought

THe truth is a great plans for only two person, because the work was unfinished and I hope I can finished  during this holiday, so that is why I think that I will be great part of the time dedicated to this project, that I think that is the most important and necessary  for my objectives.

Considering that I want to visit the others places, I would like take this as a great experience and I can get  involved to the person that are interested in learning of construction. So the work would be much more entertaining and less tiring

The most important thing is to take advantage the free time of the best way and to rest of the routine. If I have free time, I would like can to go over places differents of Cajon del Maipo. (place where I live).There are wonderful places that I don't know yet, that are easy to get to, so there's no great planning required.

I hope I can make these plans and have a "relaxing" vacation.

HI classmates and teacher, today I will talk about some  of my favourite pieces of arts.
The true I can't choose only one piece of art, so I will write about the most prominent  of my favourite  Germany muralist group; Herakut
They are the pair contemporary artist , They dedicated to muralist work  of great scale, they are located in the majority cities of  their country and around of all over Europe
The work that they make is really surprising, the pieces join the two styles of the painter of the better way.
One of my favourite is "Told You: I am Not a Circus-Horse" Painting in different building  and format (This is not a single piece and but each one has  your thing)  Generally are the great size, which allow you appreciate  all the details of the different layer and colours in a realist style without

leaving aside the fantastic.This piece combine  human and animal characteristic, to represent the problematic of our society, delivering direct and critical messages. 
The title cause a confusion with the Imagen, but even so the drawing represent the essential idea of message. 

The position of the person as an afraid rodent and his penetrating look and rebellious are what I like the most .

I would like can directly glance come of this pieces.

Hi classmate

The true is that I don't think about taking a postgraduate course in an educational institution in the future, but I would like to keep studying independently about my major and trade.

At University I am studying Goldsmithing, the metal work, and in this years I haven't learned enough about the different techniques that exist and apply in this area, that why, after I finished the career, I would like to visit the workshop of professional and masters, for them to teach me about this discipline. I think that this is one of the most beautiful ways to  learn, together with the master!!!

The Other way that I would like to apply to learn, is traveling. Know the different methods of work, according to the places and culture, it would help me to incorporate other materials, shapes and colors in my work.

with some friends, we have think to dedicate the most part of our time to creative leisure, in were we can experiment, playing with the different possibilities, all to learn and inspire one with another in a  appropriate and agreeable work space, that gives good results.

thought that it does not matter where and when you want to learn, because we really learn all the time in every moment, the most important thing is to have the desire and the resolve for you to improve.

Hi classmate.

The true is very difficult for me to talk about some job that I would like have, because I have much different ideas that has no relation between them.

I always think that my future job has to be something that I like the enough for be happy and with motivation during the development of this. The majority of this are related to the carrier that I am studding: Plastic Arts. For example work by making  workshop of metal-smithing or classes of some area  of this major.

The great plan later finished this carrier, is get a bus to travel with a group of friends , that too like crafts, to get strengthen our works and then could sell and earn  necessary money to keep traveling and financing our materials during the adventure.
 

The idea is build  a work  space independent of where we will be incorporating in our work something of each places that we visited and then get us known inside this area, if someone with motivation wanted to incorporate us. The preoccupation is not the money but the feeling of keep getting better  in the  thing that like us to do.
 

Maybe when I get back of this travel, Makes me want to keep  with the studies, get the pedagogy or make workshop with  prominent people that know techniques that I can not learned in the university.

Hi classmate

The true is very difficult for me, to talk about movies, because I almost never  watch and I know very little of this area. I don’t have the necessary concentration  to be two hour or more in front of to screen following a story, and generally I fall asleep and only see piece of movies. Is a great problem when  I am invited to the cinema, and at movie night with friends or when  we are shown some movies in theorical class 

If I had to recommend one, it would Inception (one of the few I've finished), movie  released in 2010, directed by Christopher Nolan, wich Leonardo Di Caprio as main character, winner of four Oscars for its good production and visual effects.


It is a science fiction movie that requires of a heedful viewer to every detail, since the plot is about creating a maze system for constantly travel to memories and searching the secrets of  the subconscious  to reach the goals of this group of people.

I find interesting the visual proposal and the idea of traveling for the dreams. In my opinion it's a movie hard to understand, since it's dreams inside dreams and many times you confuse with reality. It's a constant uncertainty.

Hello classmates, today I’m going to write about my pets

At this time I have two dogs in home, their names are Bu and Raco

The first has been living in our house for 7 years and we have him since he was tiny, my mother with my sister brought him from the beach and the family wich he lived with gave him the name. He is a big boxer, light brown, with a white stain on his chest, and legs and paws. He is definitely the loveliest dog we’ve had, he is loving and loyal.

Raco turns a year old in a couple of month. We brought him home for Bu to have some company.
Raco is black and has white and brown stains on his chest and is slightly smaller than the other. He is really playful and bites and smashes everything!! We gave him that name because that is the name of a kind of wind in Cajon del Maipo. 

We have had many types of pets, rabbits, cuyies, turtles, chickens, ducks, turkeys, hamsters, cats, but definitely dogs are the best, because they relate better to the humans and are the most expressive ones! To be honest I don’t like to call them pets, they are more like partners and the idea is that we give each other some company.


On the other side, exotic pets despite being wonderful and curious, suffer a lot by being taken out of their habitat, wich is why I don’t plan on having one.

Hi classmate.

My favorite holiday was the past winter (2015), with to two great friends: Tomas and Omar.
With they, I went to the north of Chile, from the Serena, until part of the Atacama region, in where we visited amazing places with very different scenery from that I usually see.

The trip was a madness, we did not have nothing schedule. We did completely “a dedo” and we did spend money in buss and neither on lodging, only on fruit, vegetables and legumes for can cook ( the three of us are vegetarian and we are good for cooking)

We walk National Parks as: Fray Jorge ( an amazing forest because it is in the middle of the desert) and also we went to Pan de Azucar,  in were we walk six hours  by a hill full  of exotic vegetation, in orden to arrive  to a beautiful  sea view.

Its was one of my best trip, short but intense, because I was my first true backpacker, We did not spend money, we met many beautiful places, we delicious ate and  it was a good date to rest of the people and the routine.

HI teacher and classmate. Today I will talk about the country that I would like visit.

The true is that I would like to visit, the most part of centre and south America, because these countries are beautiful and very interesting in its history, for its original town and civilisations.

One of the first country that I would like visit is Mexico, for its big building and its archaeological sites, in special the pyramid of Nohoch Mul in Cobá (south-east of it country) that was build by the Maya civilisations, many ago century. Is a beautiful place, big and very development (must be  amazing to be there).

Some friends have visited it, and had very good experiences, for example: The food is delicious but spicy, the people is friendly, exists very  touristic places to visit, but the great problems is that it is very expensive.


 Really my interest in this country is only to know and spend time going over and visiting important places to know more Mexico, its people and habits.
