Post 4: My Favorite Festivity

I think I don´t have a favorite festivity, because I don't like the dates that other persons judge that are relevant. But, also, with my family this year we commemorate ten years since we separated from my dad. I don't think that was a celebration, but that date is important for us. When I was a child, I lived with my father, my mother, and my sister. My father was a very violent person, but he brought the money to my home and we couldn't do anything to change him. In 2008, my mom got a stable job as a history teacher, and she collected some salaries to leave my father's house. In January of 2009, she asked me and my sister if we wanted to leave the house with her, and we said "yes". And well, in January of this year we commemorated it with a symbolic dinner, and it was a nice and necessary meeting.

Post 5: A photograph I like

This photo was too difficult to take. The photographer was I, and I took it on "Castle Mountain" (Cerro Castillo) in Aysen Region. It was in the first weekend of March of this year.  In that weekend I travel to south with my sister Emily in airplane, it was our first flight and was scary, but not too much. This image is very important to me, maybe not the photo itself but yes all the trip. When we arrive to our destiny, we wait for two days to start a trekking, the "Castle Mountain Jouney", a five days hiking. We have to wait because it was raining, but after it we could walk. That trek was too hard, and in the 3rd day we success to reach the top, and then, I turn On my phone and took this photograph. In this place, we stay for two days, and a flock of cinclodes patagonicus accompanied us, a birds that vulgar named "churrete". It was because I met that i named this blog "Cinclodes".

The technology is not my favorite area, but I enjoy it anyway. I use diferent technological things at daily, and with the time happen, I understand the computer systems and another related things. My favourite piece of technology, are my smartphone, that because I utilize this tool to variated aplications. I have it since November of last year. For example, I really love make music, and I recently discovered that there is an app called "FL studio mobile" for smartphones, with which you can make digital music easily . Another use that I usually give is like a camera to make photography, because the cellphone that I have has a good camera resolution. And also, I give another different utilities to my phone, like a memo pad, a microphone, for messaging, and so on.

Post 2: Why did you choose your career / study programme?

Imagen
When I was a child, I was not completly sure about choosing one career. At times, I saw that I wanted to be an architect, or scientist. Really, I was not even sure about joining in the university, in the high school I had a lot of unanswered questions, but finally I took a choice, I didn't expect it. That choice was to apply to university to a social science program. My first option was sociology, simply because I know it. But I was accepted in Social Work, my second option. I didn't know this profession yet, I read the career program and it was interesting to me, and I think I was lucky, because I really liked this profession, and now I know the sociology career and I don't like it. Since then, when I began in the Social Work, I expanded my knowledge in relevant issues. (Cinclodes Patagonicus)

Practice exercise 1

My name is Lucas, I'm a Social Work student in the Chile University. I don't like English, because I'm not interested in other languages apart from Spanish. In the past I'm really like to listen to music in English, but recently I prefer the local music, or rather in Spanish. When I watch movies in my house or in the cinema, I prefer this movies in its originally language, in other words, if some movie is filmed in English, I prefer to listen to it in this language and see it with Spanish subtitles. The most difficult aspect of English for me is understanding it when I listen to it, and formulate coherent sentences. If this problem persists, I plan to overcome it with hard work and practice, because when I really make an effort, I get my objetive. (Cinclodes Patagonicus)
