I must admit that it has never been too complicated for me to have to learn or read english, although I often forget certain words that make reading difficult. The blogs that we have been writing during the semester have helped me a lot in re-understanding and knowing the meaning of several words, it makes it much easier for me to write and read. I may come to understand the texts in english, but I have always had problems to listen to it, many times I try to practice that part while watching a series, movie or videos, which has helped me a lot. Also the other thing that has helped me is speaking in english with friends or with my aunt. I remember once I was talking almost all day with a friend in english and later when I was watching series I could understand perfectly without subtitles and I almost answered my parents in english instead of spanish, it was as if my brain always thought about another language that was not the native (tell me I'm not the only one who has b...

Let think... What changes can we do to our faculty? First, about the subjects that we have (archiecture). In my opinion, I think the orden of the all the subjects that we should take in architecture is fine, but I feel that there is missing (a little) in the subject of landscaping that is often omitted. Always dedicating our time in designing a building or creating a master plan in the area of urbanism (always taking the buildings, the city). At least, in my part I would like to experiment more the are of landscaping, it is the area that most attracts my attention. What happen with the time? How we spend our time? In this theme I have a conflict. Almost all workshop teachers think that they have the most important subject (I think is true) but they want to us to dedicate all our time to their subject and they say that we must not sleep, this is a problem, can cause health problems. In the other subjects I do not have any problem, each teacher know about the time that we spend ...

What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana and other drugs? In one of my post I talked about the marijuana. In my opinion for the all drugs is the same, but just with natural drugs 'cause the chemical drugs can kill us.  I don't know if is good or bad to consume some drugs for wanting to do it but there is the taste of each one, I will not criticize in that. In my opinion, how I said in one of my post, natural drugs is so much less harmful than consume alcohol but the drugs, like marijuana, still illegal and people with problems with their health need this drugs and the government refuses.  I'm agree to legalize natural drugs, I don't care if it's for personal consumption, I prefer the people smoke some pot than drink so much alcohol. I still do not understand why is legal alcohol and not drugs that can help us. And you? What is your opinion about legalizing abortion in all cases? In my opinion, the women have the right to do what she wants with her b...

In this post I'm goin to talk about my opinion of different substances that are considered as "drugs" that is illegal in our country. Example, the marijuana... is just a plant but produces different sensations depending on how we consumes it. I need to say that I never tried marijuana but I know its effect and in my opinion I think is not dangerous compared with the alcohol. Let think... when someone drinks alcohol in a party, what happen? Maybe nothing, or that person become violent, start a fight, that person, maybe drive to his home and commit an accident (put his life and others in dangerous). Drink so much alcohol would be so risky and still be legal. Now... If you smoke marijuana with your friends, what happen? They can (maybe) hallucinate, maybe look more tired or feel somewhere else. I don't know how it feel but with the experience of friends I can get an idea. But... to smoke this substances is more relax than the alcohol and still be illegal. The o...

A postgraduate course that I would consider taking in the future.  Honestly, I never think about to study something when I will finish this career (architecture) but If I will like to study something different about the architecture... and that is Astronomy. I don't think so much about the postgraduate but it will so cool if in some way to be able to relate. Well... I've always wanted to take a course in this area to learn more about the universe, like the course that do the university sometimes every years, or go to a Talk and exhibition.  One Time, near to my home, the mayor did an exhibition with an astronomer who talk about this area and show the planet Saturn to all the people who wanted ( in that day it was so close to the Earth) with telescopes installed in the place. I found out in the same day and I could not go for the time (so sad). I remember when I was in the school, in Physics, we have a content about Astronomy, to explain differents phase of ...

OMG! I like this topic! FOOD! Who doesn't love food? To start... I love chocolate, I can eat so many chocolate. I always think that I will die for so much sugar in my blood. I will die happy. The other food that I love so much is the French Fries... always have a whim for a box of french fries. Who want to share a box with me? But! I'm going to talk the food that I prepare sometimes in my house... a salad. With my sister, we started making this salad one day when we did not know what to cook. Wefound different ingredients in the refrigerator, that's where we came up with this mixture of salad This salad have tomato, lettuce, peppers, salad noodles, avocado, sweetcorn (I don't like that) and chicken or nuggets (I prefer chicken). Is so simple but is so delicious and healthy. Whenever I make this salad, along with my sister, my family loves it and it ends quickly. I don't have any picture. But if one day you make this salad you would not...

Hello everybody! In this post I'm going to talk about a job that I wanna do in the future, or maybe right now. First, I know that I'm studying architecture but my dream job is to be an actress, act in TV series or movies. I would like this job so much 'cause I can be anyone but not me, act different person with different jobs to experiment all of this while still doing what I like. In my school I had classes of theatre for 3 years, and I helped a friend with a casting for a serie of TVN, "Pulseras Rojas" (he got the role, one of the principal characters). To be honest, I can't imagine a future where I'm an actress, I think is so difficult If you did not study for this. Sometimes I dream to be in Los Angeles and find some casting for some series that I like. This is one of the reasons that I want to live in California, to make all my dreams come true, include my other dream to travel around the world. I don't care about the salary if I'm...

In this post will be that I think about this movement... it's my idea, how I see all of this. First, I am not like the women who go to the march. In the moment of the march of this year... a group show their boobs, or others put them a "horse tail" (I think), so many things happened in that march but in MY opinion I think is ridiculous, for me that not represent a woman, for me that was so embarrasing. They could look to another way to prove our points of view. I understand that was a form to making news... but, well, that I said before, is my opinion. I'm agree about the woman need more prominence in our ordinary life. The society be more equitable between women and men. The other things is about when the victim is a woman... so many people say that is her fault. I remember the news about a girl in Spain who has been raped by a group of 5 men. Finally they were released 'cause the girl never said "NO" and other things that I don't remember...

Ok. How the tittle say... this post is about the best concert I had of my life. I'm talking about "The Born This Way Ball Tour", the concert of my favorite artist, Lady Gaga. Before to talk about the experience during the concert I will talk about the "process" that took me until this day. The concert was in November 20th, 2012, on "Estadio Nacional". The pre-sale for the ticket was in August. The ticket that I bought cost $112.700 CLP. To buy the ticket I passed for so many disappointments, all for my best friends, to summarize what happen, he betrayed me what caused that we did not talk each other for 2 months. Before the concert, we made the peace, but I told him If he will do it again, will be the end of our friendship. The concert's day... I arrived at 8 am to do the line. It was 9 hours in the line under the sun until they opened the doors. When they opened I ran with two friends to take the best place and we did it! We was righ...

Today, in this post I will talk about a country that I would like to visit. My biggest dream is travel to around the world, so I would like to visit so many countries, but the principal is USA. First... I have never traveled outside of Chile... Well, one time. To Brazil for a study trip, but I don't consider it because it didn't feel like a trip for me, it was like to be in Santiago with my school class. Since I was like 10 years old, I dreamer to visit New York city. The culture has always struck me, is like a new world for me, and maybe for other peoples. Meet the famous places of the world, like the Time Squares, Empire States, Central Park, etc. I watch so many TV Series, all with the ambient of United States, show a different life compared to Chile, a life that I want. Also, I have so many friends who have traveled there, they told me their experience, so wonderful. And  I watched some videos on Youtube of people who lives or visited there, giving me more desir...

Hi everyone! In this first post I will talk about the social center that FAU create with its environment. Well, to start... at the first time when you enter to the university is probably that don't have any friends, but don't worry. The FAU is so diverse, it have all kind of people with whom share everyday, is easy to make friends here. All Fridays is the famous "party", "Las Pircas". Is in this moment when all the students come together to have fun. Is the event when the FAU is more like a social center, is the time when all of us forgot the study, the work, and have some air to breath, we can have fun with our friends without the stress. What do u think?
