Hot Christmas

Hi people!

I’m going to talk about my favorite date in the year, Christmas!!!. Nothing in the world can make me hate Christmas, I love it and always, under any conditions it is a perfect time and perfect day. I don’t know why, but I lost my mind when is Christmas, maybe this it’s come to my childhood. In Marchigüe (I never had been in other place) all the Christmas star to snow, all the people in the small town it’s happy. No, I lie, the heat was stifling and I can stand the heat because in the night I met up with my family in the grandma’s house. We had dinner, eating chicken with duchess potatoes and mushroom sauce, and then we eat ice cream to the dessert. After the dinner, go to for the gifts, with my family play “secret friend”, but the Santa bring gift to my little cousins.

I had forgotten that the previous night with my sister and my grandmother we do delicious “tail of monkey”, one with rum and other with “hot water”.  In the good night this is drinking, while it’s eating panettone, this it’s make for my father, because he has a bakery.  

This year I was a good girl and for that Santa give me many gifts, it’s natural that it should be so. 

the humanity

Hi guys,

This topic is very interesting for me. The last time I thought a lot about the culture because in my opinion the language is the base of the culture. The Pagel idea’s has sense to me, when he talks about the begging of the need to survive. In him theory all depend to the evolution and for that reason all he say depend to the pass of the time. Currently in the world exist thousand languages, this difficult the international relations, is a problem and for that Pagel knows that we evolve to have one language to standardize. In my opinion him idea is very north American, I want to say neoliberal, is thinking from the globalization progress, maybe the people in the future can have two languages, the universal and the own. I think that because the people tend to create their own languages, for example the “COA” and the disciplines also have its own codes. The language is part of the identity of the individual, for that is necessary to understand this like a need. 

Great and refresh web page

Hi guys!

                The true is: I don’t know web sites in English; I knew the www.santiagotimes.cl the last week in this class, but this site don’t give to the opportunity to practice. In the http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/ you can learn your own tools and the page. The site has many activities; you select them and depending upon your needs. I check the following activities: In the option “grammar challenge” you can take the challenge. You have to complete the sentences and then you can check your answers. Also you can read news and hear the vocabulary; its words are in black in the text. The words are to repeat twice. In the site you can download information, activities, news, etc.

                All in the site appear in English, for that reason is necessary that you understand the language, just this way you can using. In moment was hard to work, because has taken me a lot of work. In my opinion this sites are important and useful for the class.

When the music is over

Hello everybody! It’s been a long time since the last post, also many things has happened related to this break, but I prefer to don’t speak about that now, the topic is complex.

 In my opinion this semester is exceptional and rare, because the length of this term is very short, this means that the subjects will be compressed, any way this is our reality. I really like my subjects; but I like only four subjects out of five (its obligatory five)… I have to take one just to complete the credits and It’s a very annoying situation for me, because the subject offer is very poor. In any case I hope that I could approve all of my subjects, because I like this career very much.  

In the begging, going to university in summer Is not a real problem for me, but now, when I feel that the Christmas eve is near, I miss my family and my home and it’s kind of nostalgic, I hope that this feel may ends when the festivities had already gone.
