The LAST blog! Bye bye !!!!!!..............

Hello everybody!
I like english, that’s why I sign on the classes (:
Although sometimes I did not liked to sit at the Icei and wait for classes in the end I was learning. In the beginning of the year I thought that English classes would be very interesting and I was going to learn everything I need. I took a disappointment but I ended up gaining other things. I end up learning new things about my career and (what is the best) I have won a lot of beautiful and crazy friends (:
At first I hated the English classes (the ones of the first semester) because I thought that it was a totally waste of time and we had to stay in the university till late… I was not used to that. The classes were so boring and the topics of the blogs were all about journalism and I think we were very tired of talking and listening only about journalism. The first semester was over and I founded that I had not learned much. I was angry and I decided not take English classes the second semester.
Despite that and although I didn’t liked, I learned English in terms of my career (: journalism. And that obviously is very useful to me, I can’t deny that.
Finally, this semester my friends Alicia and Nacho convinced me to take the last course of the english program of the university. I knew what would happen as well with all my friends, but thought I was bored. Besides the classes ended later. This semester was definitely better, I had a great time. The classes were very dynamic and I learned about aspects of daily life. And about the blogs, I think that it help us to be more interested in english. Also, I think that the blog experience help us to get to know eachothers (about the things that we like).
I feel that all of us learned so much and differently. I mean that, I’m sure that the classes of the school were so boring because they were easy and all they taught us there are basic things that only serve to say “Hello” to someone else and introduce yourself.
I laughed very much and I don't like to be dramatic but I'll miss the english class (of this semester) because I really like my classmates and all the things that we talked in the classes.

The challenges


A lot of people think that journalism is very easy.
I think the most difficult thing in the career is that there’s too man journalist and that sucks because a lot of private universities are starting the career and sometimes the education that is given to the student is not the best, but many students like those universities because they have good equipment and stuffs of good quality.




In the technology, I think that there are many challenges. Because we have to work with good and essentials elements. And we have to learn how to use them.  For example, in the ICEI there’s not good technology for all the students, there’s not many cameras for photography and the computers re the worst, we have to be fighting with them ahahaha.


In connection with Social Matters, I don’t understand so much the topic but I think that is hard for the journalist to have an own voice and not get carried away by all the big media. Also, in Chile many people think that all we do is studying be on the TV for opine and talking about all the famous people.  


About Education it depends very much on the place that one is studying, for example, It’s no the same stud here (Universidad de Chile) that study journalism in the Universidad Católica. There are points of views there are too different from each. And journalists have to be learning and exploring new things all the time

Seasons

 Hello ! (: 
Well, what I like about the summer is the vacations hahahaha, I think that's the only thing 'cause I HATE the sun!!! So I always have to be with sunscreen because I am allergic to the sun ¬¬. But after all the summer it's fun and you can party all nights (:

I like the autumn because it's my birthday (may 17) and the landscapes look very cute with all the leaves falling in the ground. Also, the weather is vey nice.
I love the winter !!!  think it's my favorite season. I love the cold weather and the rain. 

And finally... what I like about the spring is the nice weather, but I don't like this season because it's when my allergies starts :(. I'm sneezing all day and I'm itching all over my body, I think it is the most terrible thing there is in the year.
Mmmm.... the changes of the seasons has no meaning for me, sometimes I do not notice when the seasons change. So I don't care.


In Copiapó (where I was born) rains  every four years and after that there's the "Desierto Florido". It's when the desert blooms and it's very very beautifull. (:

(:

Hello, I like study here, in general the place is very cool, but there's a lot of things that need to be improve.

For example, the technologic is so poor. Icei should have the latest technology, like good computers, cameras, classrooms... And a lot of them, not just 3 cameras for all of us. In the classrooms the seats are old and in bad condition. Many times we do not have enough space in the classrooms for the classes. and many have to be on the floor. Our library is super poor compared with others here at the campus.

Also, we need to bring our own notebooks for work because the computers here are really bad

So I think that's the things that need (really need) to be improv. I find that we pay a lot of money to study here and this is not reflected in the tools we have to work

Mmmm... I don't know how the university can improve the implements. I imagine that there must be many steps to do such thing. But I think that everything shoul be replaced by something better.
 
With these improvements for students would be so much easier to work. We would not be fighting with computers every time they do not work. It would be much easier to work and students would be happy to come and study here (maybe not happy ahahaha).

And finally I think we have to protect the good thing that at here at the university.

Mmmmm I get high with a little help from my friends.

(:  Now I'll talk to you about friends and family. In my family we are four. My mother (Maru), my father (Haroldo), my brother, my three dogs (Serena, Lara and Naomi) and me. I am the older daughter but I have a cousin (Fabio) that is like my old brother and I love them very much.
I have many many cousins, are about 25, I'm not friends with everyone, but we still get well. 
I think that my family and my friends have influenced my life, because both of them are very important to me.
Now I live alone in Santiago. Every month one member of my family come to visit me. I miss them, especially my brother and my pets. But my brother is gonna come to Santiago to study and we are going to live together. We are like friends and we never fight so live with Martín (my brother) will be very fun (: I don't have problems with any of them. And I don't think that I have a rol in my family. Basically, I think we are very normals and I think that all that matters is that we love eachother. I don't have a lot of friends, but the ones I have are really good ones. My best friend's name is Lorena and now she lives in La Serena and she's studying a career about education. She is twenty years old and she's my bff since always, when I was born I met her and we became friends. I know all of her family and she knows mine, so her cousins are like mine. We don't have many things in comun but when we are together we can't stop laughing. Even though when I was 10 years old I went to live to Calama, over the years we never stop being friends. I never lost the friends I had in Copiapo and with facebook I've contacted a lot of old friends. When I was living in Calama I had some friends, but now I barely talk to them. It's very sad, but now I have new and better friends (that sound a little bit cruel).

Now... My closest friends are my friends from here (: We always have fun, we go to drink cofee at Starbucks and spend money like crazys ahahaha. They are Alicia, Nacho, Yoyi and K-le. we never fight and we all know eachother very well. I see them every day (except on the weekends) and we are together all the time. We are differents but I think that we all have special things in comun (and that is why we are friends). They are so beautiful and I love them. (xoxo for them).
I like having new friends' cause it's fun. Sometimes we talk about really ridiculous things and we like to laugh at everything and about ourselves. Also, we sing a lot and we take a tons of photos.

Finally... I want to say that I like my english classmates.
(:

Muuuuusic (:

(: Hello
I love music so I'm with my mp4 player on all day. There's people that can be all day without listening music, but I can't. My parents also love the music. And my brother plays the guitar and a little of drums. Years ago I used to play the guitar but I got bored. I think that music can help when one is going through difficult moments because it can relax you or something else.
The music that I love is rock, pop, indie, punk and that kind of style.
My favorite band is Los Bunkers! I love them ! They're from Concepción, Chile. I know them since 2001 and the first song that I heard of them was 'Fantasias animadas de ayer y hoy'. I've bought all the albums and the dvds. Now they're in Mexico ¬¬
About concerts.... The last big concert I went was of Cat Power !!! It was on 21 of July of this year. I was in just in front of her. And in the end she gave to me a setlist *.* (ok ok ok... she threw it to the public and I grabbed it, but I'm sure that she look at me and threw it to ME!).
But in... september I went to a little concert of Chinoy with Manuel García in support of the mapuche cause. It was in a hill and that day was raining. So it was very cool (:
This year I went to the concerts of: Radiohead, Cat Power, Coiffeur, Los Bunkers, Holden... and others I don't remember xD
The bands that I like are (they are not in a order): Los bunkers, The beatles, Gepe, Manuel García, Radiohead, Tegan & Sara, Calle 13, Velvet underground, Camera Obscura, Bat for lashes, The Gossip, Mika, Blur, She and him, The delgados, Belle and Sebastian, Sex pistols, Daniel Johnston and a looooot of other bands. 
I would like go to a concert of: Bat for lashes or The Gossip. I don't know. 
I don't have a favorite song, because I think it changes depending on the mood or a specific time of life. Right now my favorite song is Tanto creo en ti - Manuel García. And 'We are golden' - Mika
This is my Last Fm (: http://www.lastfm.es/user/xcamibunkx there's all the music that I listen.
