Read, write and speak in Social Sciences

My favourite subject this semester is "Read, write and speak in Social Sciences". It's about teaching us how to approach the texts that they give us to read in our respective careers. On practicing the analysis of these, how to interpret them. Also improve our way of expressing ourselves in public, thinking about the time to have an oral test. Making us recently relaxation exercises to cope with stress and pressure in times of final tests and exams, with an actress teacher in charge. She is also the one in charge of the activities of corporal and oral expression.

We have done the texts's analysis  (stories and papers), reading works, evaluating the work of colleagues of the previous semester, learning to perform research work (how to make the structure of these), folders with the compilation of the previous activities, techniques of relaxation and, lately, we have carried out activities of oral and corporal expression, together with an evaluation of these, so that they have to be applied theatrically.

I like this subject, because I feel relaxed, I do not feel pressures. In addition to the activities that we do are focused on improving our performance as first-year students of our respective careers.

It seems to me a very useful subject, especially for those of us who are just beginning with university life. I would like it to be a compulsory assignment, because of the contents that it covers and the intention behind them. Ceasing to be an optional something like "general training course". Since one does not know what it is, tends to pass these, losing what one can learn.

Thanks 4 reading!

Janes Addams

Jane Addams, I do not know much about her, except than ... she was a feminist, pacifist and reforming American sociologist. She was born Cedarville, Illinois, on September 6, 1860. She died in Chicago on May 21, 1935. He founded the Hull House with Ellen Gates Starr in 1889. Both were the pioneers of the field today known as Social Work.

Observing the clear differences that were around him, he created, one of the first refuges in the United States, inspired by the Toynbee Hall in South London, founded by Samuel Barnett in 1885, the Hull House. being these, the shelters were centers where the poor received training and social benefits, and were an advance in social reforms.

I find a very interesting and inspiring woman. Since, despite the time, she was enlightened, and criticized around him and tried to change it, finally getting it. And setting a precedent regarding social policies. Obtaining with them, the Nobel Prize of La Paz in 1931.

If it were not for her, social work would not exist and problems such as "the social question" would not even be questioned, they would not be a topic.

I hope it has inspired you to know more about her and her interesting life.

Thanks for reading!

The Book Of Life

It is a film that deals a lot with the recent festivities. I mean the "día de los muertos". Although it is more in the collective unconscious (not to say commercial) "Halloween", for the fact of disguising itself and asking for sweets -in the case of children-. And parties with costumes, in the case of teenagers.

Well, despite being located in Mexico, is a 3D American movie of romantic comedy and adventure, inspired by the celebration of the Day of the Dead; It was animated by computer and produced by Reel FX Creative Studios, distributed by 20th Century Fox.

Story account of Manolo, who is torn between following the expectations of his family and continue the family legacy of being a bullfighter, or his passion: music. Meanwhile, as a child he fights with his best friend, Joaquín, for the love of María. Who her father sent her to travel to Europe to study.

Looking like this, a love triangle between these 3 friends. To those who La Catrina, ruler of the land of the remembered, and Xibalba, ruler of the land of the forgotten. They make a wager on the day of the dead of who will stay with Mary's heart at the moment she returns to the village. La Catrina opted for Manolo and Xibalba for Joaquín. The latter becoming the hero of the town, thanks to the help of this to give a brooch that makes it untouchable. La Catrina opted for Manolo and Xibalba for Joaquín. The latter becoming the hero of the town, thanks to the help of this to give a brooch that makes it untouchable. And Manolo, on the other hand, is trained by his father to continue with the family tradition and be a bullfighter.

So when María returns to the town, it is the town's event. And she can see how much everything has changed. And her two friends too, who do not hesitate a moment to flirt her.

Starting there the bet of Xibalba and La Catrina, seeing an interference of the first over the three friends who, to win the bet. Making Manolo face various challenges to get Maria's love and her life that is compromised.

It is a very entertaining film, which shows us many elements of the Mexican culture and that special day they commemorate their ancestors.

I hope you liked this little review

A photograph you like

This is the photo than i like. Because it was in a my life's beautiful periode. It was taken by my scout leader,  while we bathed in a place of San Gregorio (I can't remember the name).

It was taken in the year 2006 approximately,  in summer.  And I like it because during the time that  I was  scout, I was very happy, I learned many things, I became friends.  

I had to leave it because of the studies and now there is no time to return. Because the studies and work. A lot of stress. I prefer in my free time to sleep. Although I think I should choose do some sport ... well, I would like to someday relive it. And as represented by this image, taken at the precise moment of falling into the water... throw myself into life and have an excellent time. And hopefully meet again with the people with who we used to go camping, make expeditions, night games, etc. And to be children again.

So  that’s the photo I like, and that represents part of my life,  especially my childhood, when my brother, my mother and my uncle (who was the leader of the Scout group at that time) we went every summer camp and we played. And with it, always have beautiful memories to tell and appreciate.

I am happy to know that there are still scout groups, or groups and activities that try to live outdoor experiences, in a world where ever urbanize everything, these kinds of activities,  and give color to a person's life, in addition to typical gray that leaves the cement of the city. And just as it gave color to my life, I hope to give it to another child or adult, regardless of age and size of being.

I hope than you can and want live the experience <3!

MY FAVOURITE PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY

My favourite piece of technology is the computer. Because since its creation the creations of many things we look dairy began. And principally the phone, the consequence of computer's creation. Because with the phone, which is the thing than i spend the most time in my day. I use it more than the computer (it keeps breaking). Since i had friends (aproximatlely in high school) and with the whatsapp's creation, the phone came to be the thing that i use the most, with the videos shared, music, photos, etc.
 But i came here to talk about computer xD
I use the computer like instrument to do my homework, play the video games (i started to use it with that), and watch the videos (principally on youtube) and talk with my friends, people in the online games. Althought now, at University, i use more than never. Above all the Word, and academic google.
I use it a lot of time, not like phone, but quite a lot of time. Of course not all day (i try to have a not-so-sedentary lifestyle) (althought the sport's part don't work) i divide my daily activities with the university, playing to guitar, and doing exercise (like zumba, running, basketball---> sometimes, not much lately)
If the computer wasn't created... maybe my life would be different. More athethic, probably i wouldn't wear glasses to watch some screens (like TV, computer and phone) XD. I would be more knowledgable person (i'd have less distractions with the internet), maybe a scholar xD
So that's my favourite piece of technology...

Thanks to read it!

Why did you choose to study this study programme?

When i was a girl, i want to be veterinary. Later i realized that the insects i did not like ( i had cousins who had it as pets, soo no thanks). Then when i thought of the university i had in mind theater fonoaudiology and social work and i chose social work, because the subjects i like ( the names seemed interesting) and i liked the idea of working inn a municipality, schools, helping students and young people with dreams with their problems.
At the moment,  the university has seemed to me good , stressful, but at the end of note, good. I learnt new things, interesting and new things, that i hope it server me in any moment or my life in the future.
I do not know work I'd have, perhaps working in a municipality (? or foundation. When the wind takes me. But, i'd like to do art projects in the future, with music, paintings, etc. 

So, that it all.
That for watching and read this shit!

ME

Hi everyone! 

I'll tell you a little about me and what has been my life.
I've born in a 15th day of August in 1996, in Chile's capital, Santiago. I went to this world with my twin brother, José. We've study in the elementary education in the Excelsior school. When i went to get 7th grade in that school, i've change the school to go a emblematic highschool of my country, called it "Liceo N° 1 Javiera Carrera". High school in which i have been until i graduated in 2015.

While i've been in that high school i had a busy life. Because i enrolled in many courses,  they related to my interests that I keep today: chour, chinese, guitar, basketball and painting (but this one i realized in a different institution, an artistic's  high school: Almirante Barroso)

I graduated of those courses when i finished the high school, but i finished the course of painting one year later.

I entered at University this year, 2017, to undergraduate program of Social Work at Universidad de Chile.

Actually, i live with my mom and brother. My mom is religion's teacher and my brother is commercial engineering's student at Universidad de Chile too.

Today, i have a calm life with my family and friends. I try to be a sport person, but i love to much eating and sleeping. And i love the music, the movies, painting, singing and my family and high school's friends and university's friends.

Thanks for reading!
