My last blog post

I think that knowing english is absolutely important on these days. Is more important if we are studying things related to comunication and language and we have to talk to people about different subjects and obviously they have to understand us in any place around the world. A journalist has to be able to talk in english and to understand english because most information on the web, and important articles, etc, are in this language and also we have to know what's happening all over the world and is very likely that we can find it in english. 

I always had good experiences on this subject at university, I have a great time, I laugh and is a moment to relax among all the stress of the career subjects. In my case, I'm not so good talking in english, I'm way better listening in english, so that's why I think that the blog is very useful. I mean, for people like me. I really want to learn to express myself better.

Anyway, I believe that the things I learned are not enough yet, so I hope to continue learning to talk in english. How? Well, doing more often the things that I do now: music, movies, books, internet, talking in english with people I can to, etc.

There are some friends with whom I can practice my english and we try to do it because it's useful and funny. At home I also watch films and series in english and listen music in english too, and all that stuff. Maybe it will be great if I start watching movies without subtitles and if I start translating the song lyrics.  

I'm saying goodbye now. Maybe it will be a good idea to continue writing in this blog. But I think I'll take a break. I really liked this course and I appreciate have the opportunity to know my classmates better, it was a great group!!! And I believe that the teaching methods were fine and funny too. 

Bye, people!! I hope you all improve your english in the future!!

Black Swan

Just one movie? Hard to say...
A few days ago I was talking with my brother about movies and we both remembered when we saw Black Swan. Black Swan is an american film of Darren Aronofsky from 2010. Is a psycological suspense movie starring by Natalie Portman, Vincent Cassel and Mila Kunis.

This is an AWESOME movie, I mean, the way it makes you feel is hard to achieve. It mades me feel uncomfortable and I think that one of the best things about this film is the way the director deal with the eroticism. Natalie Portman's performance is amazing too. The way she can represent an obssesive and repressed person, and her transformation through the movie is amazing. And what about the end? I'm not gonna tell it to you but it really took me like 10 minutes to react.

I saw it at the cinema in 2010. The movie is about a young dancer of a famous ballet company of New York. She has some personality issues and a lot of troubles with her mom, who is a retired ballet dancer, manipulative and very demanding. Her mom can't accept that her daughter is not a child anymore. The thing starts when the company is about to do a new Swan Lake show and the director is looking for someone who could star black (bad) and white (naive) swan. Nina (Portman) is perfect for the white swan, but she needs more passion to star the black swan. In that moment Nina starts a fight with herself and starts an unbelievable transformation. This metamorphosis ends on the most unexpected way.

Please watch it?

¿politics?

Ok. I believe that politics is an important thing because the way we live is largely defined by it, but I also believe that at the moment there are very few trustworthy people.

When I turned eighteen the first thing that I did was becoming on a real citizen. I was really interested on voting and I really used to believe in democracy. But with less hope on a big change I still voting because I think that is the only way to make a tiny change at the moment. If i don't vote, anyway someone else are going to do it and also is going to choose somebody who make decisions that necessary are going to affect me. And although I believe that every politicals are like the same thing, there are a few worst than others.

Is because of all that stuff that I sorry that so many people didn't vote. But in other way I respect their deicision because our political system isn't very good. The politicals, the binominal system, the poor variety and the little concern about the real problems like education, health and all that stuff that is sooooo important, BASIC stuff!

I have to admit that the bourough elections were exciting. I'm from Ñuñoa and it was very tight between Sabat and Maya and I was really nervous because I really wanted that Sabat left de townhall. That day I really felt that my vote worth it!!!
