Post 6: Postgraduate studies

Imagen
Hello!. Today, I'm going to write about a postgraduate course that I'd like to do. I'm currently in my fourth year of social work, and it's my second year of core. Core is what  is known as practice. I'm working in the municipality of Pudahuel, in disaster risk management. The next year I plan to get  a diploma. In the social work career allow us to take a diploma in fifth year.  I like disaster risk management, but  I don't know if there's  a diploma in this. I would like to take a diploma in disaster risk management as it is very important to prevent and know what to do in a disaster. Above all because many disasters can be prevented. I would very much like to study abroad, since it would allow me to know another country and I have never travelled. It also helps me to get to know another culture and new people. If I study for a diploma in disaster risk management, I would like to take a part-time course, so I can work and have money to pay...

post 5: my future job

Imagen
Hello everyone, today I want to tell you about what I would like to work on in the future Now I'm studying social work at the University of Chile. It's my fourth year and I'm working on my core. I am working in the municipality of Pudahuel, specifically in disaster risk management and I like it very much. In the future I would like to do work in some municipality to work more on disaster risk management because it is very important in Chile. I imagine that it is a very committed job, since I have to be prepared for any disaster, and I have to know many things. In this job you have to work a lot, because when a disaster occurs everyone will help. The truth is, I don't know if the salary in this job is good, but I hope that it is a salary according to the work that people do. I'm working on disaster risk management and that's why I'd like to continue working on this. I have always  thought that disaster risk management is very important, because C...

post 4: my favorite singer

Imagen
Hello everyone! Today I want to talk to you about my favorite singer. I like reggaeton a lot and I have many favorite singers like daddy yankee, rauw alejandro, j quiles, noriel, don omar, and the women who sing reggaeton I like karol g and cazzu which is from Argentina. However, my favorite singer is Rosalia. I really like Rosalia for her style of music, as she mixes flamenco with trap and generates a very striking rhythm. I also like her lyrics very much, the song I like the most is "pienso en tu mira". I liket Rosalia a while ago. I think it's been 2 years. I always listen to the songs she premieres with new artists. The album I like the most is called "el mal querer" which is her second album. This album is based on a medieval work that is seven centuries old. The work is called "flamenca", and its author is unknown. In the album, Rosalia tells the love story that presents this work, where a woman marries a man, and product of jealousy of his p...

Post 3: My pets

Imagen
Hello! Today I want to talk to you about my pets. My experience with my pets has always been good. Since I was little I have had dogs, I had a rabbit and also a cat. The animal I liked best as a pet was my rabbit, it was called rabita and it was very nice. He died when I went on vacation because he didn't want to eat. However, the animal that I consider to be a good pet is the dog because it always accompanies you. An animal that I wouldn't have as a pet is a spider because I don't like them and I'm afraid of them. Currently I have two pets in my house, a dog and a cat. My dog has been living in my house for 2 years, and my cat has been living in my house for 3 years. My cat is called vaqui, and my dog is called lilo (my brother likes the movie Lilo & Stitch and that's why my dog is called lilo). I love having animals in my house because they are very loving and cheerful. Two days ago my cat was the mother of 3 kittens and we are taking care of t...

Post 2: The best concert I've ever been to

Imagen
Hi! Today I want to talk to you about my favorite concert. Last year I went to a concert called "super festival", where they were artists like Farruko, Zion & Lennox, Cosculluela, Jowell & Randy, Lary Over, Wolfine & Alcover and Jacob El Duque. It was a regueton concert that took place on June 2, 2018 in the movistar arena. I went with a friend and we had a great time.  It lasted all day, from 5 pm to 11 pm, so when I finish we went by bus. Everyone danced and sang the songs. The artists I liked the most were Zion & Lennox and Jowell & Randy because I knew almost all their songs. And also, because they are old reggaeton singers, because I've listened to them since I was a little girl. It was an incredible concert, the atmosphere was very quiet and everyone enjoyed, danced and sang. I really liked this festival because I like regueton very much. I hope that this year a similar concert will also take place. What is your favorite concert?

Post 1: A country I'd like to visit

Imagen
Today I'm going to tell you about a country I'd like to know. Since I was a girl I liked Puerto Rico, because it is a country that has a tropical climate, and despite being a small country, it has diverse ecosystems. Puerto Rico is a free state related to the United States, and its official language is Spanish, which is influenced by other languages such as English, which was declared the second official language. If I manage to travel to Puerto Rico, I will go to San Juan because it is the capital of Puerto Rico, and I would also like to know its festivals and its music because it has a very happy music. I wouldn't want to live in Puerto Rico because it's so far from my country and cultures can be different, so I'd just go to visit its landscapes, eat and get to know its most famous places. And you, what country would you like to know?

Blog Nº10: My experience writing a blog

Imagen
My experience writing a blog was very good. At the beginning it cost me a little as it is difficult to write about oneself and personal tastes. However with the passage of time I liked to write. One of the blogs that cost me the most is about my favorite writer and about the sources of information that I use the most, since being in the university I use many different sources of information and I read different authors. I find it very appealing to write a blog for an English course, as it tests your writing and you can know more words in English than you knew before. In addition, you can learn about the tastes of your peers and you can learn about their personal tastes, and find out and know other things. It was a very good experience during this semester, although it is a little difficult, it is useful to learn English in another way and in a more entertaining way. It also allows us to practice our writing and reading other blogs. And to you, what did you think about writing a b...

Blog Nº9: My favorite food: Guatitas

Imagen
My favorite food is guatitas. It was hard to decide on a meal, as I eat a lot and like fish, chicken, pasta, beans, and sushi. However, I decided on guatitas. Very few people like guatitas but I love them. Their texture and flavor I find very rich. The preparation I like best is what is known as "guatitas a la jardinera". They are very good with fries or rice. I've been finding out and guatitas are very popular in Ecuador, it's even a typical food from that country. The guatitas are made from beef stomach pieces. It is difficult to admit that I like to eat meat, since many people in the university are vegan or vegetarian, however they have accepted my tastes. I have met very few people who like guatitas, since their texture is a little spongy and therefore chewing them feels strange, however to me they look very good. I can't eat many guatitas since they don't like them in my house, however when I go out to eat I usually try to ask for them. And now, w...

Blog N°8: subjects and social movements

Imagen
This semester at the university I had a subject called "subjects and social movements". The bouquet by name alone seemed very appealing to me, and then as time went by I realized that I liked it very much. The teacher brought to the course several guests representing different social movements, such as the non+afp movement, feminist movement, representatives of socio-environmental conflicts, among others. The idea is to demonstrate how social movements generate demands and articulate themselves so that these are fulfilled, since they are organized people who have discomfort around a specific problem. Social movements are very important, since they are the ones that seek to generate changes in the country based on different demands, and they are the ones that mobilize and call on people to demonstrate against injustices. I think it is very important to have a bunch of social subjects and movements in the social work career, as it shows us another area of work where we can ...

Blog Nº7: Review of career-related websites / An expert in your field

Imagen
In order to study, I usually search for articles on the university website or on Google academics. They are very useful platforms because I can find different information. I find articles for various branches and that helps me a lot to study. I mainly use Google's academic platform because I search for keywords and find very good articles. A lot of people use Google academy and it is very useful for daily life. Another application that I use a lot is Slack, because with that application I can keep in touch with my work team. With slack I can send and receive information and receive and send messages. Thanks to slack I have received very useful articles for my core work and for my work at university. What is your favorite platform to study? Do you know Google Academic or slack?

Blog post Nº6: my favorite writer

Imagen
My favorite writer is Isabel Allende, because when I read her books I feel part of history. She was born in 1942 in Lima, Peru, thanks to the marriage between Francisca Llona Barros and diplomat Tomás Allende Pesce, cousin of former president Salvador Allende. At the age of 3, he arrived in Chile after his parents separated, and remained in the country until 1953. Isabel Allende began writing in 1967 thanks to Paula magazine. Since the military dictatorship was installed in Chile, in 1975 Isabel Allende decided to leave the country with her family to Venezuela, where she lived for 13 years. There she began her career as a novelist with the publication of La casa de los espíritus (The House of the Spirits) in 1982. In 2010 she received the national prize for literature, is a narrator and very questioned by critics. Isabel Allende deals with topics related to women, memory, the Latin American imaginary and her own biography. I love reading about Isabel Allende, she is a great...

Post Nº5: Story behind photography

Imagen
I've always wanted to travel and get to know other regions or other countries. However, I still don't have the possibility. One of the most beautiful trips I remember is when we went to the beach with my parents and walked through a craft fair. My brother was very young as shown in the picture and I was 14 years old. At that time my parents were together, but now they are separated. That day we bathed on the beach and walked all day. I made myself a braid and my brother played in the games. It was a very nice summer, I love my family very much and although now they are not together, I see them at 2 and I spend time with my mom and dad. What is the most beautiful trip you remember?

My favorite series: Lucifer

Imagen
My favorite TV series is called Lucifer. This series premieres on netflix. I haven't finished watching it yet because it has 4 seasons but I like it a lot. Whenever I finish a chapter I want to see another one and so on. He tells us the story of how the devil comes to earth and begins to work as a detective in different cases. He also falls in love with a detective he works with and that makes him vulnerable. It's a very good series because I like to try to find out who is responsible for each murder, and I also like to see how Lucifer suffers various adventures. I'm in season 4 but I still need chapters to finish the series. I hope they release more seasons because I like the series very much. What's your favorite show?

My favorite technology device: my phone

Imagen
My favorite technology device is my phone. It is very useful because when I have Internet I can send and receive messages, send emails and communicate with my family. I can also study for my tests and advance my work. My phone is very useful for studying in college, and it's also useful for watching movies and series. Another thing I really like about my phone is that I can download music and sort it into a list. That's very important to me because I listen to music all day. I listen to music when I'm studying, when I'm bathing and even when I'm sleeping. Thanks to my phone I can be connected all day. What's your favorite technological device?

Why I study social work

Imagen
Since I was little I dreamed of helping people and changing the world, because many people were not happy. At first I wanted to study nursing and help sick people to be well. Then I wanted to be a teacher, to teach children, but when I was 18, I knew the social work career. I read about social work and realised that I liked it very much. I had a lot of doubts about my decision, but when I entered college I realized it was the right career for me. I don't sleep much and I don't eat very well, but I really like what I'm studying. My family is very proud of me and always gives me a lot of love. Tell me, what do you like about your career?
