Blog 10: English Language Challenges

Imagen
Well...Hi Today is my last blog! I think that like the first year I didn't have English, and the third semester I didn't have it too, I felt like I lost a lot of practice with that language. So the use of blogs was a good idea to me, because they gave me the necessity to be constantly thinking or reading things in english. I think that I need to improve in every aspect of my English. But I think that the aspect I most have to improve is speaking, because I'm very shy and I forget the majority part of the word that I know when I have to speak. Besides, my pronunciation is so bad, is really shameful to hear me. TRUE. I don't really now how to be better at English, right now I really feel like I can't improve in spite of my effort. But I think that one option is still watching movies or series with subtitles in English. And about my pronunciation I think that I will ask  some friends for help to speak with them in English. But I'm not sure. I think th...

Blog 9: Changes to my study program

Imagen
Well...Hi. Today I'm going to talk about of changes to my study program (a little too late). I try to don't want to change everything because maybe I would have to chance of carrer more than the program. The principal thing that I would like to change are the numbers of vacants that every course have. I mean if you accept students in you institute you could have enough places where they can have class. I would like too that the journalistic electives were polish. I was in judicial journalism and wanted more from that elective. I would like that besides to have interpersonal communication as a technique of to "read" people, I would like to have a course about how to communicate with empathy with each others, I mean, ethics classes weren't enough. I think the workload and lenght of studies have to change too, but first this would come with a change in the minds of every person who manage de institute, which would have to know the existence of menta...

Blog 8: Summer Plans

Imagen
Well...Hi. Today I'm going to talk about my summer plans. It is funny to talk about it, well, not really. I would like to sleep a lot, I need to regenerate really badly I would like to travel, I really would like to, but me and my mom don't have money and the furthest place that we could go will be a little village in Valparaíso. But more in a "mature" way I think that I have to do my intership, because to do it would remove a big weight from me...This topic make me a little bit anxious, so next point. I would like to meet with my friends. I miss them and I wasn't in the best conditions to have time to do social life, even with the people that are in my heart. Anyways I know that I would do a lot of simple things that I want to enjoy, for example: Listen to music, I mean do the big catharsis all the hours that I will want; to read all the books that I have on a waiting list; to draw a lot, really a lot, I have so many things to express and I need to do it in s...

Blog 7: Music

Imagen
Well...Hi! Today I'm going to talk about music. Without specific questions or a guide to follow, just music. I love music, since I was a little little girl.  I remember that my first cassette was the ( What's the Story) Morning Glory? by Oasis. My sister is 13 years older than me so I knew a lot of music by her (Oasis, BSB, Metallica, STP, etc). But at the same time I heard a lot of music just because I liked (and I still) to dance, I mean Axé, salsa, and in general Latin American rhytms to which I was dancing all day. Then I fell into the rock era, I think it is most like alternative rock. I loved groups since Nirvana, The Beatles, Queen, Pink Floyd, going from Muse, Green Day, to Evanescence and Paramore hehe. I heard a looot of music But at the same time a listened to pop because of the love of dancing was still in me, and with this kind of music I received a lot of comments of people who think rock is sacred, that "this was no good music", an...

Blog 6: Postgraduate Studies

Imagen
Well, Hi. I'm so sleepy so writing this will be hard.  In spite of that finishing my current career could seem a little blurred right now, I want to do a lot of Postgraduates. In part because I'm a little nerd and I like to learn different things, and for another part because I think that Journalism has a looooooooooooooooooooooooot of empty spaces that I would like to fill. I would like to study a master or something similar about gender, and violence against women. But at the same time I would like to study something about Human Rights in general, or International Relations, to pay attention about what is happening in the planet and more specific what humans are doing in there. Theres is a masters in the CIEG in Chile, that I would like to do. But besides that I would like to do a lot of postgraduates in other countries because I think that always we can learn so much in other different  places  than our countries. I never thought about the way that I would...

Blog 5: My Future Job

Imagen
Well...Hi. Today I'm going to talk about my future job. I would like to work in a organization like an NGO about something in relation with gender or awareness of mental health. I would like to mix it with a job in a media like to don't forget the way to work in the traditonal journalism, but the most that I want is to work in a NGO. I would like to mix the way to work between outdoors and indoors, but I would prefer to work outdoors in the most part of the time. I REALLY WANT TO TRAVEL IN MY FUTURE JOB. At first because I like to travel, and the second because I think that it is important to nourish with a lot of experience and share our experience to other countries and/or places too. I usually don't think a lot about that, but I know that the salary in NGO is a little bit poor. In despite of that I would like to get a salary that could allow me to have an economic independence in a stable way. Right now I study journalism, but after I would like to s...

Blog 4: The last movie that I watched.

Imagen
Well...Hi! Today I'm going to talk about the last movie that I watched, which is Bohemian Rhapsody! I OMG really liked it, because I like Queen and especially Freddie Mercury. For me it is a little hard to choose just one character because I really like the charisma of all the members of Queen, but I think that my decision could be between Freddie and Mary. Maybe the relationship and their support make me love them more than others. But I'm not really sure at all. And again, for me it is hard to choose just one thing that I liked about the film. I think that the music line that unites all the movie is really touching to the fans of the band. The way that the movie explains a part of the process in the life of Freddie is really touching too. I think that as we know that he isn't alive while the movie is in progress you already know when the finish is to come so, almost to me, my feelings were so strong. I'm not sure about a part that I didn't like, may...
