Art...a little bit!

 

Today like every other weeks, I can tell you about a topic recommended for the teacher. Today the theme is the Art!!!!

 Really I’m not a big expert in the art, but I share whit you my experience in this.

The first painting I show you is of a young painter what I know in a webpage of meditation, his name is Pete Revonkorpi, this painter has a stile very particular, his paintings looks like a dreams where everything is possible to happen.

The most like of this painter is the shapes of his draws, and I think what he move conscience across his paintings.

I show you one of my favorite painting of Pete, he use an pseudonym for sing the paintings: Pesare.

This painting called “Lighter than air”, is beautiful and intriguing to me, and really all of paintings of Pesare looks o can be seen in this different way.

 The Other painting I want to talk you is of a famous painter, this is Salvador Dalí. His paintings are surrealistic and strange but contents something magic, and too makes think in a different way. The paint is Soft construction with boiled beans.

The first time I see, was in a dentist consult when I was like five or six years old. The painting awoke in my sensation what something was badly and very ugly, but with the time finally became in something curious for me.  with this paint Dalí want express the horos of the civil war in Spain.

Well, this is all for today, I want to share a pictures of this painting!!

See you soon!!!!

Regards, classmates

Movie Time

Hello Classmates!

Today I tell you about a movie I watched. When I thing in this topic, springs to my mind a lot of movie very funnies. But lately I saw a lot of movie in my house, and one in particularly has become in my favorite.  Is “The Terminal”.

This Movie is staring for many famous actors like Catherine Zeta Jones, Diego Luna, Stanley Tucci and my favorite actors Tom Hanks. Is directed to James Cameron

The history or the movie is about Victor Navorsky, a citizen of Krakozhia, who come to EEUU to get an autograph of Benny Golson for his father.  The drama begins when in the country of Victor (Krakozhia) taken the power the rebels and he don’t can go out of airport and don’t can back to his country. There is like victor begins to live in the airport.

I love this movie because is very funny and victor is a really nice character, the situations what they has to live in the airport are unusual.

I don’t remember the first time I watch this movie, but I see a many time after, in my house with my sister (who is a fan of Tom Hanks to) her boyfriend, and my little brother.

The genre of the movie is Comedy and Romantic.

I recommended The Terminal is a nice movie to see with the family.

Regards Classmates! See you later :P

10 thing to do before die

Hello classmates and teacher good today touched a subject that makes us think .... 10 things to do before I die ... mmm .. for some people can be easy and for others, like me, very difficult.

Truth is not something I think about constantly, I will do before you die?, Or 10 things I want to do before I die! : O Hard ..
Well I'll get to think that things I will give priority to be on my list, 'cause I can include the basics of escrbiir pack a book or plant a tree, but I'm not sure if that would be within my 10 things.

1. - First but perhaps not the most important, can travel the world, not as a tourist but to live in several countries, to know them from the inside.

2. - I would love to sing at a concert for thousands of people jajaj, but maybe with a good singing voice modifier .. something like that :)

3. - I have always been very passionate about dancing, I would like to learn to dance tango, salsa, Arabic and Bollywood, and other dances .. dedicate to this hobby even for me would love.



4. - I would like to develop my career and  well as a good career helping solve several problems which I think geography can have a lot to say.

5.-go to a Lady Gaga concert just to see her dance and that whole show or madonna ... actually any artist to present a great dance show.


6. - I like to have a big family to continue with the traditions that we now have in my family, about 4 or 6 children would be nice.

7. - I would like some dream to keep our promise to my mom and dad, thank you for the things you have done for my brothers and me.

8. - I would like to learn to play instruments as well a guitar that already practice but I like even better.

9. - I would also like to turn to dive and go somewhere nice where you can appreciate the beauty of the ocean below.

10. - Maybe if I'd write a book but this would have to live a thousand adventures that if you want to live life to concho and then tell great stories in the ...

Well the truth, for the moment I can not think more, you probably are more things I like to do and still not have thought of.


I hope I can fulfill all my desires like the rest of my colleagues, Greetings!

Music Shows...Manuel Garcia y Felo

HELLO classmates, today I want to tell ON A LIVE MUSICAL SHOW. This show was made by the DATE, which is the federation of students from the University of Chile to inaugurate the semester or academic year actually.

In this live show as various artists participate like Felo, who is a comedian, and also Manuel Garcia who is my favorite artist!! : D

To attend this show, we agreed with several companions. So Karly, July, Wilda, Vicky and I, we left immediately after leaving school. So we just finished our academic work we headed straight to the Federation, which is close to the FAU.

Manuel Garcia singing there first and let the public, that is, all students of various college careers we choose the repertoire they would sing that night. It was like a private concert in reality, since the 50 students not outclassed. It was spectacular.

Then sang Felo, a humorist who writes songs and lyrics will change these you sound funny. This source actually one of the best performances that I have seen has Felo was very witty and friendly, also was one of his first actions after a scandal that had had to discuss with journalists who criticized his shows ... WAS HIS RETURN TO THE STAGE.

The song that I like Manuel Garcia was his version of Women of Silvio Rodriguez, as it reminded me of my grandmother. Felo and I really liked a song called "You're the woman almost, almost, almost perfect for me". Song that talks about a woman who is imperfect that anyway with all faults and laughable. Felo woman considers it almost, almost, almost perfect for .. is very funny, that song I'll upload the video to enjoy it like me: D

I also recorded some videos of their performances, so I'll post one of them linkeare Manuel now and one with the best performances of Felo to enjoy the music and laugh a little too. Regards

Eating Out ...:P Es Lo Que Hay Restaurant...:D

Hello classmates, this time I talk you about eating out.  I don’t go usually to a restaurant or a rapid food locals, because to my family like a lot cooking.  However, when I go out with my friend we usually go to a little local of rapid food in Santiago called “Es lo que hay”. This place is a very little local, where the clients are mostly students and they take checks of the JUNAEB, program of food scholarship.

 

The first time when we went to this place, my friends and I are lost in center of Santiago, we want to go to my house in Moneda Station. But I want go walking, so we walk for a while and suddenly we stay in a place unknown for me, and really beauty.  Then we start to go around, when the hungry appear, and look for a place to eat or buy something to eat. Then we see this little place whit a lot of people outside and went to sow what are happened inside. Like that we meet the “Es Lo Que Hay”

When we go to “Es lo que hay”, always eat the sales promotion of 3 Italians (is the name of the HOT DOG whit seasoning in Chile) whit a glass of soda, and the most funniest thing is try to eat 3 Italians and keep the line ajajajjajaja.

I don’t go very frequently, but I make the most time I have to go whit my friend Natalia and Wilda, although we don’t see whit the same regularity of before, we try to go when have a little of time to talk about our lives and laugh a while of the things of the life.

 

Is a lovely place in center of Santiago, located in Paris neighborhood.  This neighborhood is beautiful too.

I invited to us to go to this place to enjoy the food,

See you later classmates : D!!!!

A Country i want to visit...ECUADOR!!!

Hello classmates!! This week I tell you about a country I would like to visit, this country is Ecuador.

Ecuador is a country located in South America, your capital city is Quito, and one of more interesting thing about this country is the lot of volcanoes what have in his territory. Ecuador has 80 volcanoes, of wich El Chimborazo is the higher.

My family went to Ecuador, when my mom was pregnant of me, I know this happened a lot of years ago, but always they talk about this trip and the wonderful country who knew. 

With all these stories they tell, especially when talking about most of the nature of Ecuador, I have been amazed by what all comes hence my desire to get to know volcanoes and jungles.

We also have an aunt who is from Ecuador, is my aunt, who is married to a brother of my Dad, Uncle Edward. My aunt is constantly traveling and always brings back memories, and also tells us about how much they care in Ecuador to preserve their indigenous culture, as there are several ethnic groups in the country such as Otavalo.

Respect for indigenous cultures in Ecuador is an example and one of the main essences of what they seek to represent as a country.

Here I leave a link to a wonderful image of the highest volcano in Ecuador:

A HOLYDAY..:D

Hello classmates, today I tell you about a holiday... I don’t trip much actually, but when i was a child, I and my family used to travel a lot.

We go to many places of Chile, like Villarica, Pucon, Calama in north, Bahia Inglesa, etc. But if i was to choose a holiday I stay with my family vacations in los Maquis, near to los vilos beach.

Frequently we went to los Maquis, this town stay from los vilos into the IV region of Chile.

 Here we have family, a brother of mi grandmother and his family. They received to us for much time, really the time what we want.

The place called los Maquis is wonderful.  And we stay there for many days, i loved went to this place.  With my sisters and our cousins we play in the river and we were launching in lianas. Also we went to catch animals like a birds or rabbits.  

Something i love to do was gone to get milk of the goats. My great uncle’s goats are a lot.  We also ride in this and to race in the mountains.  With the milk we get of the goats we make cheese to eat in the house.

Ah!, I forget say that in Los Maquis don’t have electricity because was really far away of the big cities, but this for me are a plus, because the stars could be seen far better than any other I had ever been apart before or after.

This are my holidays, I hope you like this Post See You Later Folks!!! :D

A special trip!!

Hello mates, This is my first post this year! as in the previous course of English also were using this methodology.
  Well today I will tell you about travel, I love to travel, in fact it can be considered the main part of the race that study, geography, where we are constantly touring several place to meet the dynamics of the territory.
But today I will tell you about a special one that occurred last summer. This summer 2012 after the student mobilization, hardly anyone believed to enjoy holidays, so when my father invited me travel surprised me by how quickly arranged with my aunt Astrid.

The truth that was thanks to her that we travel as this old gift is what my uncle norberto as birthday present. She just had to choose destination. So my aunt I can think and chose Punta de Choros in region IV.

When my dad told me I was excited, after all that had caused revulta to stop the dam, had heard a lot about the creek and was dying to meet her.


So we left my brothers, my dad, my uncles, my cousin and me. 9 people in the Adventure! The trip was amazing. When we arrived there was a person waiting for us with the house ready, as my aunt had left everything ready for the arrival on site. we moved and the next day we went for a ride in boats Chañaral de Aceituno, a town 30 km from Punta de Choros. On the walk we could see giant whales, whales Allied, also saw lobods sea, penguins and a host of impressive birds.

Upon returning from the trip we all went to buy fish at the creek for lunch at the house, and my dad with my uncle, a rich dish prepared Cantagallo, a fish that eats algae that exists only in this creek.

A passing of the days we were visiting several beautiful places, and I went with my cousin Valentina running to the dunes to our physical training for the summer, but in reality nothing hahaha not last and were a complete failure, so we had to us back to the house. The next day we went to Punta de Choros tour which included a visit to Isla Damas.

There Besides watching whales, birds and penguins. We saw dolphins and sea ... follow up was exciting, we took photos to bring thousand memories, in fact the last day when we were out on the road in front of our car jumped a magnificent Guanaco .... It was great!

This trip is still special, because we have not made another family for the holidays but we hope to repeat the experience and have a great time as in Punta de Choros!

Greetings fellow see you next class: D!
