English classes

Imagen
Hello everyone! Today I’m going to talk about my experience learning English at university.  In 2011 when I entered to my previous career, I started learning English II and at that time the methodology was the same until today, classes doing blogs and theoretical classes. I can remember that I learning useful topics to improve my English during the theoretical classes and when I made the blog I used that topics and I learned new ones using internet tools. After English II, the next semester in 2012 I had the English III class, in that case, the methodology was the same but we had to talk much more than the last English semester and it was very good because I understand an English conversation, but I don’t know how to respond in English so I learned a lot of things. This year in English IV I think the class will be different, but the methodology was the same that English III (in 2012) and the topics we are studying are almost the same. I’m learned new topics and new tools to improv

Welcome to the Architecture Faculty

Hi everyone! Today I want to talk about changes that could be made to my faculty. It’s complex to talk about changes to the faculty, mainly because there are many improvements that need to be introduced to change things. Regarding the curriculum, I think it’s better than the previous one regarding the loads and distribution of the times, but I think that the percentage of attendance at certain courses is very high, besides that they are blocks of three hours once a week what I find little pedagogical. In addition, the workshop times don’t allow to combine the subjects well with the workshop.  Although, the duration time of the career decreased, I think it's still quite long compared to other countries like New Zealand, where it lasts for 3.5 years. Another important point for the faculty, is the management and infrastructure, because there are many inefficiencies in terms of management, in all areas. As a professional and after having worked a year in the A block, there’s

  Hi! summer is coming and I'm so excited to leave Santiago that I can't wait another second, if I could, I would burn this faculty hahaha!. This summer I want to spend time in Curicó with my family, meet with my friends and going out with them during December. I waiting for Christmas and new year’s day because I love those dates, especially new year’s day for the parties and celebrations. After that, I want to go to Vichuquén lake in January, I really love that place, the nature and the beauty of the lake, spending time to relax and doing sports like swimming or kayaking, especially water skiing but my family doesn't have a boat, so I can only do it when the friends of my parents visit to us. If money allows me, I'm planning to travel to Uruguay with one of my best friends in February. We plan to travel in his car from Santiago to Montevideo and staying at my mom's house. We want to relax and go to the beach, meet people and going to

My Postgraduate

Imagen
It's complicated for me to talk about postgraduate studies, because although I want to do one, I'm not clear on what it would be. I would like to attend one postgraduate because I believe that they provide important tools to work in the area of interest, in addition to opening new doors and generating contacts for the world of work. At the end of 2015, in my previous career, I gained the possibility of studying a diploma in "International Accounting Standards" and I consider that it was a great learning experience, so I would like to repeat it in a postgraduate course. A possibility for future, I would like a postgraduate abroad, something in Italy, USA or England. I want to live the experience of living in a strange country, to know its people and its culture and to learn from it. I like to think about the challenge of attending classes in another language, with students from different places and teachers with methodologies different from those here in Chile.

Party life

Imagen
It is difficult to me to talk about a job, mainly because I feel that I could not be all my life doing the same thing over and over again in an office, but if I think of a dream job, it could be in organizing parties. Mainly because I worked for some years at parties and events with my sister-in-law and it was a good job, especially because you knew different people and you always ended up being part of the party, you could even eat and drink, so I never stressed. I can imagine organizing and participating in different types of parties in many different places, traveling to different cities or even other countries, which I would very much like. Thinking about traveling to other countries and meeting people working at parties is something I would really like very much, and there are always many stories to tell. However, I don’t think I would work on parties’ forever, would be something momentary for some years, as a way to travel places and meet people. After that, I would like

My favorite TV show

Imagen
There are a lot of TV series that I like as Black Sails, Falling Skies, American Horror Story or Chef's Table, but if I had to choose one in particular, it would undoubtedly be The Walking Dead. The Walking Dead is a TV series from AMC, based on the homonymous comic written by Robert Kirkman. The plot is based on the story of Rick Grimmes, an Atlanta cop who after being shot, wakes up in the hospital without understanding why the place is deserted, until he discovers that he is immersed in a zombie apocalypse. From that moment Rick is faced with zombies or also called "Walkers" to protect his family, so he travels through various places in the USA to achieve it. Although the series was released in 2010, today has 7 seasons and 100 chapters, plus millions of fans and some TV awards. By the end of 2010 I had heard many comments of the serie in the Internet, from my friends and the TV, so one night I decided see it and.... OMG!!! that night I saw 4 chapters without stop

My favorite movie!

Since I can remember my favorite movie still Titanic. When I was a child I loved natural disasters movies, especially tragic movies like twister, volcano, etc. When I saw Titanic for the first time I feel in love with the ship and her sinking, the tragedy and especially with the big staircase and break up scene. As most know, the movie is about the maiden voyage of the Titanic, the largest ocean liner at that time. The ship sailed from Southampton to New York sailing through the waters of the North Atlantic. It was the largest moving object ever built and believed impossible to sink. But in the middle of her voyage, on the night of April 14, 1912, the Titanic crashed into an iceberg sinking into the sea. That tragic night 1.500 people died including children, men and women. I know everything about the ship is terrible, but I've seen the movie hundreds of times and I love it! I cannot remember what was the last movie I saw in the cinema, but I think that was Doctor Strang

I am so exited to get back next summer and live new experiences!

Dubai  Choose one place to visit it’s difficult to me, because I would very much like to visit the whole world. But in this moment I’d like to visit United Arab Emirates (UAE), especially Dubai. I have always been interested in this place for its history, the beauty of the desert and the beaches and especially for the modern and extravagant architecture of the city. For the near future I would like to live in Dubai for a few years and work like an architect, especially because I think the design and architecture in that place are amazing. I would like to know more about their culture, traditions and gastronomy. Visit important places like it beaches and its luxurious stores, but above all I would like very much taking a camel ride. I don’t think I would live in Dubai forever because I would like to live the experience in other places like Australia or Italy and in some future come back to Chile.
