Hello everybody! Today I’m going to talk about my favourite authors and books. Since I remember, reading was one of my hobbies. When I was little, I read the entire Harry Potter saga. But now that kind of literature is not more of my interest. When I started growing my interest change and I started reading other kind of novels. I don’t know how to describe this type of literature, but the stories have another sense, something more philosophical and transcendental. This is the kind of books that I like. One of my favourite author is Herman Hesse, he is a German writer that wrote novels and poetry. My favourite titles of Hesse are “The Steppenwolf” and “Demian”. This two books really change my way of understanding life.  Other author that I really like is Julio Cortázar, he was an Argentine writer who have a lot of poems, stories and novels. His masterpiece is “Rayuela” and is one of my favourites. You really feel the emotion of Horacio (the principal character) like you were he. Other thing that I like from “Rayuela” is that you can read it in disorder, it doesn’t matter the order of the subtitle.  Other Costázar’s title that I like is “Bestario”, an anthology of a few of his stories. I like the surrealism of this stories. 

"El Abrazo"

Hello everybody! Today I’m going to write about the best concert I’ve ever attended. This concert was called “El Abrazo” and was at December 11 in 2010 in the “Parque O’higgins”. This name came from the hug between O’higgins and San Martin when they won the Maipu’s battle, as a metaphor of a concert with Chileans and Argentinians artist in the year of the bicentennial of the independences of both countries. In this event, a lot of artists were on stage during the all day. My favourites artist there were Spinetta, Fito Páez, Los Tres, Charly García and Andrés Calamaro, but there were on stage a lot of other artist that I like too.  I gone there with a lot of friends and we have a lot of fun. The atmosphere there was perfect to enjoy the concert, because there were a lot of people like us enjoying the concert. We were in front of a big screen and see all very good. It takes the all day, so when it ended, we were so tired. I remember, I came home at 3:00, directly to bed. 

Hello everybody! Today I`m going to talk about an article related of my career. This article is not an academic article, is more like a new, but it is related with two things that I really like: Sociology and Football. The name of this article is “Costa Rica invite sociologist into dressing room” and is refer about the sociologist that work in the coaching staff of the Costa Rica’s football team. Here, you can notice the job of Jaime Perozzo (the sociologist) in this football team and realise the importance that he have in the teamwork. He improves the collective game and make feedbacks after every game, that make a strongest team.

I really like this article because it show how can the sociologist use they knowledge to help the development of the sports, especially the football play, that is my favourite sport. You can always see how the social aspects of the daily life are reflected in the match, and you can use that to strengthen the collective game.

Here is the link of the article:

Hi everybody! Today I'm going to talk about the places that I want to visit in my life.

First, I want to travel around all this country and know every corner of the land. I only know the north of Chile, but nothing of the south. Chile has a lot of interesting and beautiful landscapes and we didn’t take advantage of them. Personally, more than get to the traditional tourist places, I want to know the common places of every city, this places where go the people who live there and realize their life there. I want to be part of the common life of the city, not be a tourist.

Other place that I want to visit is not only a country, is a little more ambition. I want to travel around all Latin America. This continent has a lot of culture and fantastical places. Fortunately, I know part of it, but I stay in every country only a few days. I want to visit every latin country and stay there enough time for been part of the native people.

Hope I can realize my ambitions, is hard, but not impossible.

Hi everyone, today I’m going to talk about my experience writing this blog.

In the beginning, I thought this was a super boring idea with no sense. For me was a little easy to write a few words about a specific topic. Then I understand that it was not so easy. Every time the topic were more complex than the before, and the minimum words start increase.

What I don`t like about the way to do this, is that we cannot choose our topic in the week. There was only one time we chose the topic, but only one. Sometimes the topics weren’t the best, were boring, or sometime the conditions, like “say something specific”, were a little forced. Maybe it would be better to make us to choose between two topics and without conditions, only with suggestions.

This blog help me to improve my writing skills in English and I think it help to my classmates too. When we start, I read a few post from my classmates and I founded them bad. Now I read my first publications and I found my own mistakes. I’m sure, I still making mistakes, but I’m sure that there are fewer than before.

Hi, today I’m going to talk about the three Rs, recycle, reuse and reduce.

Recycle means that you separate your trash according to the different materials. That’s for the different recycling places that reproduce thing with your trash. You can also recycling by your own doing handmade stuff.

Reuse refers to use again something that normally you use one time. For example plastic bags, you get them in the supermarket and then you use at home for your trash can.

And reduce means that you try to consume the minimal to produce less trash, or you change your products for those that have less package or less residues.

I thing, this is a relevant topic and here in Chile we don’t take the importance that it have. We don’t have recycle centers and we don’t have the habit of separating our trash. Is time to take more responsibility with our environment and all start at home.

Hello everybody!

Today I’m going to talk about things that I will like to learn someday or thing that I start learning but then I stop and I want to pursue.

First, I like to learn more about Latin American history (and history in general), but it is really difficult because is and specific topic and is hard to learn if you don’t make a special course. Here in the university are a lot of course about that topic, but I don’t have a time to take them. So, I like to learn more about philosophy too, but the same, I don’t have time for study other things more than my career.

A thing that I start to study when I was little and I want to pursue is playing guitar. When I was 8 years old, I start taking guitar class on my school. I learn for four years, but then a classmate broke my guitar (for accident) and I was so sad than I stop playing. I forgot the most of the songs and rhythm, but I remember the most of the notes. I want to restart playing one day, but I really need time for that and in this moment I’m full of activities.
