Forest Ranger


Well, if I could choose any job that I like to do, that would be a Forest Ranger in any National Park here in Chile. I would like to do this job because I like very much the nature, and I think there’s no other place better for work.
I am sure that I would enjoy very much this job, because I like very much to go to national parks, and every time that I have been there I thinbk that I would like to work in there. There are very vast places, and I imagine that always there are things to do in a place like that.
For me, this can be a satisfactory job, because is a job for to do good things for nature, that is very important for me. Is almost an ideal job, and the space is very big for do many things for keep the flora and fauna, and with this I could feel completly happy.
Well, when I went to do trekking in several national parks, for a time in the same park, I knew forest rangers, and talking with they, I feel that are people very happy with his job, and one of them tells me that he never change his job, because this give him the possibility of help the nature. This people many times are from near of the parks, then they know the area and have a special feeling about their town and land.
I see you in class, Bye!!

Henry David Thoreau


Well, there are so many people that I would like to have known, because I admire much people by the way they think and the things that they do in the life, changing the world in some way.
In this time, I choose one of my favorite writers, Henry David Thoreau. He lived in the 19th century, and had a revolutionary way to think for this time, with ideas absolutely valid for our times, between the anarchy and the love of nature. His work influence to the pacifists movements of the past century.
I would like to talk so many things with him, to know what he thinks about this world we live and of our time. Also I would like to talk with him about his life in forest, out of the civilization, ask him how was that experience, how he lived, and why choose that place. For discuss about life and nature.
Well, I think for me was very interesting to know him, because I agree with some of what he writing, his ideas about how the world should be, the authority and the life. He was part on the movement of Transcendentalism, whose ideas I think are very considerable.
Also I would like to share with him the love for the nature, and the importance of this, just for know which was the force that make him just get out of the world of society and advance into the woods and live in the nature, alone (no people).
See you in class :)

Learning English

Well, I would like to learn to speak english very well, because I hope travel so much, and I think to know english perfectly help me so much to can communicate with the people and not to starve to death… also I think that the english is a useful tool en any ocasión, for communicate with different people in different situations. Actually, the english is a universal languaje, it speaks in all the world, so wherever when I would like to journey, could be a person that speak english, and that can be very good when needs to know something.
With all, th english is a difficult languaje, because is very different to the spanish, the forms are completly diverses. Is like a other way to think, and is necessary patience for know it.
I think always is useful to know english, because sometimes, there is people that I can know or help that only speak english, and is good to be ready. Also, is useful to understand many daily thing, like songs that I never now what said, and for reading, because I like s much read, and smetimes I found books only in english, and I just don’t read it, that is very bad.
In geography, to know english is a very important tool, because the majority of the technical books of this profession are write in english. That means if we don’t know english, lost a great part of knowledge of geography, that is a really serious problem for geographers.
See you in class :):)

A perfect day out of the city


Well, in first time, I don´t really know with who I would like to spend in this perfect day, can be with my boyfriend, very close friends, family or just with myself, because the company is not the most important for me. I think that whatever be the circunstance would be fine.
But the most important for me in my perfect day is the place, the scenario, that needs to be a place in the nature, specifically in the mountain with a river or lake near. The idea of a perfect day for me is to be in touch with the nature, because that makes me feel really happy, and with a mountain like a view I can ask anything else.
Well, in this place, I would like to walk a lot, for know the mountain, but too I would like to rest, read a good book, spend time just contemplate the landscape and do meditation with the sound of the birds, the wind and water, things that you can´t pay ,near of any kind of civilization, is all that I want to have a perfect day.
In my life, I had a perfect day like this sometimes, when I was in vacations or when I can scape from Santiago and of the responsabilities, but I’m always looking for time to pass a day like this, and I hope in any time, that my life become in many days like this.
I hope all of you have a perfect day just like you want.
See you! :)

Student Demonstratings

Well, the students of the University of Chile, are demonstrating because tryin to put end to the privatizing program of the new government, that wants change the sistem of education of Chile.
I don’t agree to stop the class, because in my opinion, is possible to build a student movement with work, to generate information, and to use all the knowledge we have but for this is no necessary stop all the activities, because we are the most affected with this by lost knowledge that we can have.
I don’t take part in the demonstrating, I think that the reasons are fair, but not the way , because the only affected of all this are we, the students. Also, the ministry said that he won’t talk with anybody that stop the class. This make so difficult all the conversations to resolve this conflict.

The Doors Tribute

Well, this time, I will talk about a little concert I went a couple months ago.
Thas was a tribute of The Doors in the Oxido Bar, in the Bellavista neighborthood. I went with a group of friends, my brother and my boyfriend, and we had a really good time!!.
I really enjoyed that, but the place was very small, and came an excessive numbrer of people, and all of us was very cramped in the show. That time, played three tribute groups, to Jimmy Hendrix, Grand Funk and in the end, The Doors, that is one of my favorite musical band.
In spite of the conditions, the terribly hot inside the bar and the excessive people, the band was really good, and they played the big classic success.
This was a really good experience for me, because I just can listen their music in discs, by obvious reasons I will never can see they en live, and this cnahce to listened this music in live was a very good experience for me. Me and my brother enjoy that so much, but my friends and boyfriend was bored, but the people and the hot inside.
I decide to go this event because I like very much The Doors, and to listen their music in live in a way, to attrac my attention very much. Too I went because I like so much the music and enjoy the rock music live, that is a really good to see it.
See you!! Bye :)

Something I would like to do


Well, this time, I talk about something that I would like to do sometime, and this is Hang Gliding, that is an air sport. It use a kind of aeroplane but without a motor, called Delta Plane.
I always would like to do this, because I think the chance of fly and glide is amazing, and is possible to see the landscapes from the height, that can be really beautiful, too fly between the mountains catches my attention so much.
I think the hang gliding is an activity very intresting, because is something unusual, for me, is something I never had the chance to do, and I hope do it once in my life. I like very much the life in nature, and this activity is always in natural places, and flying is possible to see so much diffrent things.
I believe that I can be so good for this activity, because I have no affraid of the high, and I have courage for do that, I think if I have the chance to do it, I don´t think twice and I would take that opportunity.
I hope do you like this activity
Good luck for everyone of you!!
Bye!!
