My Blogging Experience

Today I start writing my last blog and I can explain to everyone who read the next post how influenced in my learning and development in a field like English. May be because for some people are common to post every day on a blog but for me it was something completely new and different.

My experience with the blog began when in English class we were told to write about some topics and post them on the internet, for me mean a greater challenge than simply write in English, but also learn about what a blog was, and how to use it for start to write.

How I said, I began this experience with fear because it meant a challenge on a topic that I didn’t know, but with the support and explanations of my dear Miss Zagal I took away my fears and I felt more enthusiastic about the idea of writing and publishing a blog.

Once you start with the postings I realized I was putting into practice what I had learned in previous courses, and to be honest I felt that this really was a challenge because it what harder than I learned in school, it was more than a simple practice, it was to see if I really learned and forcing me to improvise and develop a thought not only in Spanish, also in English.

From that I realized I had to try to make the most of these instances and so at least try that. I think that this helped me to remember things I had forgotten, I also increase my vocabulary because each time I had to write a post it was about a different topic and it meant to look up words on this subject, and with that words I knew I could write and express myself as I did when I wrote of my favorite photo, my favorite technological object, my favorite character of public administration, etc.

Finally I should mention that I really liked the new experience and I think it is a new way to adapt to modern times and using technology for the better development of the department of English.

With all this I mean that the blog influenced me in many areas of my personal development, may sound strange, but not only help me to practice what I had learned, it helped me to understand that new things should not be scare me, also want to be an incentive for learn more.

My Favorite photograph

My favorite photo is one which comes from my family, whom I love so much and brings me good memories.

In that picture apperase my dad, my mom, my brother (rodrigo), my aunt (vero) my cousins (simon, stefano and adolfo), my friend (rocio), my grandfather ´´tuto ´´ and my grandmother ´´lupe´´ they are the persons that I spent most of my summers, there appear all embracing, smiling and with the ocean on a sunny day.
The day we took the photo we were heading to concepcion, because we were going to visit a huge tradicional fair that is in that city, but in the way we stop in a viewpoint that caught our attention because it was inclined, and because had a beautiful view so we decided to take a picture, save as a souvenir and how no one else and how we were alone (and after discussing who would take the picture) we decided it was necessary to put the camera on the car with automatic shot and in that way all appeared in the photo.

This photograph was taken in Cocholgüe in February 2004, the last summer we spent with my grandfather before he died, and that is why I like and brings me good memories because I loved my grandfather and this summer was unforgettable, that was the last time we were all together.

For that is the first thing I remember when I think about important photography I remember my grandfather, my family and a incredible summer, I keep it very carefully because it has great emotional value for me.

Well this is the history of one of my better summer and the last one to the south and that is why it is so importance to.

My Favorite Festivity

My favorite festivity is Christmas, December 24th all my family and I together in my house and we met a special and delicious food for dinner that night, we go to church, then going at night to the house of the breast my mom and the next day to my other grandmother's house where we exchanged gifts. The 24th in the morning, usually, wrap presents, then with my mom prepare dinner and I make a dessert (always something different), and later go to Mass and then go back to my house for dinner.
After going to my grandmother's house where are my aunts and my cousins and the 25th will come to my other grandmother where the rest of my family.
This last Christmas on the 24th I had to go in the morning to buy a gift last minute and was very uncomfortable that there were many people buy, then come to my house and tired to finish decorating a cake I made for dessert, then went to Mass, and after dinner, and at night exchanged gifts and the next day too. something I like to do this christmas is dinner with my grandmother and my aunts that I never have.
At the end of Christmas is very special to me because everyone is happy and sharing with your family.

My Favorite Piece of Technology




My Favorite Piece of Technology is my notebook, I got it two years ago and my parents gave it to me. This is so easy to use. It does not have any extra difficulty, while you now use a traditional computer, you use it in the same way except for the touch pad but if you do not like it you can connect it a mouse.
I can use it for different things such as collage, reading text or even book, looking for information about any subject (for example the biography of my favorite person of administrative public) or downloading the things that the teachers send (power point, homework, etc) also I use it to communicate with my friends (msn), or entertaining on the network and I do it almost every day but not for a long time.
I like it a lot because it makes my things easier, like when I could study or chat warm in my bed and it is easy to transport it is not necessary to stay in a only one place.
My life would be difficult without it because I ought to use the old computer and I could not be free.
For this I love my notebook, I love the technology.

my favorite vacation place

My favorite place is Guanaqueros, this is a lovely village north of Coquimbo city in Chile. In this place the main activity is fishing, it has a small port where the fishermen keep their rowboats. But in the summer Guanaqueros wakes up because the tourist of the different places arrive and the economic activity focuses in the trade, the store open , for example butcher,bakery, there are many restaurants where you can eat shelfish,fish or a breaded delicius.
I think that it`s necessary in the village a medical center because the hospital of Coquimbo is the nearest.
In my experience Guanaqueros is a perfect place where you can go with your family and take a rest, in the day you can go to a different place, it has a lovely beach near ( Playa Blanca it`s so pretty.) or eat the most delicious empanada in ¨el suizo¨ and at night you can go out with your friends or new friends to center of village, La Serena, etc.
