English at the university...

What do you think of english? do you think it is useful? it is really necesary to learn it at university? Since last year that in "Universidad of Chile" english is compulsary in some careers, so students are graduated with a better level of english, that give them more opportunities abroad at the moment of search a work. In this essay I'm going to give some positives views and the negatives ones, so you can make your own opinion.

Since 2009, in physical therapy, english is a compulsory subject, and how everything in life, it have some good things and others that are not that good. First of all, english is a perfect implement if students what to travel abroad, because it is the universal language, so it give them some facilities to comunicate with their partners. It also give them the chance to study from english books, that as we know, they are the ones that have the better and newest information.

Learning english at university also helps students that knew some english since school to practice it, talking, and listening it. To know english also give the opportunity to go as an exchange student abroad, and this is a great apportunity to grow as professionals.

By the other side, english might not be very useful if students don't know how to take advange of it, and it that case, taking english as a compulsory subjetc is just some waste of time, because it take time to go to classes and do the homework, time that can be well spent doing some other works for university.

One last thing that I want to mention, is that english is a lenguage that have to be wanted to be learnt to really take advantage of it, because if not, students don't take it seriously because there are some others subject that are even more important.

So, to conclude, english is a tool that each student have to decide to take it or to leave it. In my opinion I think that english is very useful to our future as physical therapist, even more to them that want to travel and keep on studying abroad. The better information is on english books, so english have to be used to be better and a complete professional. Just think it..

Bye Classmates!

Do you like movies?

Hello classmates! Its been a long time since I havent write here, but a I haven't had time, so now I pretend to write some things... right now I'm going to talk you about films, where I like to watch them, which one is my favourite and some other things.
First, I want you to know that I love cartoon films! I used to watch movies such as The Lion King or the Cinderella, but now I like films like Shrek, or Finding Nemo, or movies like that. I also like action movies, but what I really don't like are scary movies! because then I can't sleep well!

I like to go to the cinema, but it is too expensive, so I rent movies and I watch them in my home, and it is very cool because I have a projector, so the difference is not too much. I like to watch movies with some company, maybe with my friends, or family, or a boyfriend, but I don't like to watch films alone, because I get asleep.

The last film that I watch was "Post Mortem". The avant premiere was free and in our university, so I take advantage of that and I went to watch it. It was a chilean movie, but it was very boring, so I don't recommend it. It weas too slow, and the action never came on.

Well, the invitation is there for you to come and watch a film with me!
See you!

Stress is...

Hi there! How are you? I'm a bit late with my blogs, so now I'm going to do my 4th post and it will be about stress.
Well, nowdays it's very normal to see stress people, more now that we are ending the year and everything must be done.
Stress come when people have a lot of thing to do and not enought time, so people start with some common symptoms that usually are tiredness, people unable to concentrate or think clearly and irritability.
A good way to don't be stress is do some sport, or take a time during the day to relax and distract the mind about job or studies...
When people are stress usually they don't perform at work in a good way, because they are not a hundred percent concentrated, because they are thinking all the time in what they must do, that they don't have enought time, that they won't be able to do all work, so they finally work in a bad way.
Sometimes stressed people can take some days off with the family, like a "mini-holidays" so they can be relaxed for a while and enjoy time with the family, or just lay on the grass o the beach and enjoy to be in a place that is not the rutine place. Because I think that rutine is a very important fact to be stress, so everything that can take out of the rutine is a very possitiva way to stop stress.


So take a time and enjoy life!

A healthy lifstyle

Hello classmates, it's been a long time since my last post, and many things have ocurred. Today I'm going to talk about how to have a healthy lifestyle, and if it is posible.

Nowdays it's very dificult to have a healthy life, because there is fast food everywhere, people is every day more and more sedentary and the air is getting worst everyday with pollution.
However, there are many thing that people can do trying to fight these bad habits. First of all, sport is the most important because it prevents many diseases such as obesity, high cholesterol, and it keeps your brain and your heart working perfect.
Also, sport must be complement with a healthy and balanced diet, for example, people must have milk three times per day, eat 4 or 5 fruits/vegetables, have legumes at least 2 times per week, and drink a lot of water.

A good moment to get away of all these bad habits is on holidays por example, because is the best chance to go to places with a better air to breath, with less pollution. And a perfect moment to run in the mornings, in the beach for example. Vacations are also a good moment to use more suitable clothes, and no the one that people must use to go to work, or to go to the school... this thing that I've just mention, are some thing that can get us out of the rutine, and help us to have a better lifestyle.

So, try to do your best before the summer arrives! ... for a summer without a shirt!
Enjoy. and smiles at life!

Places I like...

Hello Classmates, I'm a little bit late, but like some people say, it's better late than never. It's been a rare week, but it has came to the end and now I'm on holidays!!! It's so cool, now I will wake up late and rest a little bit from the university.

So well, I've been thinking a lot on which is my favourite get-away, but I'm not sure.
I like a lot Viña del Mar, a beach on the Fifth region of Chile. I've been there a lot of times with my friends and it's not really a place to rest, because we always go and have a lot of partys, although we make our time to talk, walk in the beach, cook, and sleep.

A place where I like to rest is in my own room. There I have everything I need, everything I want, It's the place that makes me confortable and where nobody can bother me. So when I want to think, rest, work, or everything I want, I stay on my room and I start listening to some music.

However I like to be in my room, I like the south of Chile too, I've been there a few times, and it's really beautiful, specially the places for camping. It's feel really good to be in touch with the nature and do thing that I usually don't do in Santiago, so if you have the posibility, go south and enjoy the landscape.

Hope you enjoy the post!
See you soon

Music!

Hello classmates, so long that I haven't been here! I was on holidays and I really enjoyed them in the beach with my friends!

But now, that we've come to the reality, I'm going to talk you about music and what kind of music I like and when I listen to it.

Well, I don't really have a favourite kind of music, I listen every kind of music, but I prefer music like reggae, or dancehall, althought I like a lot romantic music too. When I was a child I really loved Alejandro Sanz, I went to a concert of him and I was really crazy; nowdays I like him, but I prefer his old songs.

I like to listening to music while I'm writing, or when I'm cleaning, or having lunch, but never when I0m studying because I can't focus on what I'm reading or learning.
I really like to listen to music because it brings me good memories. For example some music makes me remember about my boyfriend, others makes me remember about my friends or family; so many good times that I enjoy listening to music.

I usually get my music from the internet with a program called "Ares" so I played my music in my computer, because I don't like to record it on CD's
So, as I told you before I don't have a favourite kind of music, but I like some groups or singers such as "Cultura Profetica", "Bob Marley" "Jason Mraz" "Alejandro Sanz" "Ricardo Arjona"

So, what kind of music do you like?

Have a nice weekend!

My Experience in English Class

Hello classmates.

Today I'll write my last post! And that is because today is the last day that we will be in the computer lab, so I'll tell you something about my experience in this english class and how I have felt in this subject.

At the beginning I thought that this class will be useful because for a long time that I had not practiced English, so I was excited that I could resume my practice in english.

As time passed, I realized that this english class was not as I thought. First that we have to travel from our university that is in Independencia to this other faculty that is in Quinta Normal.
Also, I do not agree with the rules that are in this department, so really I haven't had a good experience with this class and the way that it is being carried out.

All though, this "posting class" I think is very useful because it has help me to improve my writing, and to have a better flow.

I think that next semester, listing lesson shoud improve, because we have some quiz listening, but we have no way to practice it, so I think it will help a lot.


Bye classmates!

I hope you have enjoyed with this blog, I don't think I'll write again!
Or maybe next semester! No one knows!

See you
