Last Post


Hello classmates and Belén.
Today is a sad day, because today I'm going to write the last post of the course, and not only the last post of the course, because it's my final curse of English in the faculty.
I liked a lot the course of English 4. When I was in the school, the way of teachers to teach another language was bored, only with a book. And in my way for the courses of English in the university has been really funny, very dynamic.

The use of blog in this course, in my opinion, it's very funny, and to make self-assurance, and allows ability of explain different topics. Besides, I think that is a good experience for learn English.

In general, it's a great tool to expose different opinions; you lose the embarrassment, because you don't need to expose oneself to explain an idea, and specially because all people daily is connected with type of virtual platforms.
I know that my English is so bad, and I'm a very timid person when need talk in another language. I'm so brave, but speak in another language produces me horror.
For this, I need improve my writing, my listening and my speaking, but specially; my listening. And my bad English In different areas, in close relation with my poor vocabulary, makes me a bad student of the English class.

I learn so much, but the way is long and still I need walk so much.
Outside the English class, I don't use the English, because nothing in my daily life needs speak in another language, and neither did I.

But all this is now, who knows in the future, maybe I will need, in fact, It’s the most probably.

In general, I liked a lot the experience of the course.
And I fell that I learned English language.

Finally, I say goodbye,
I see you!

My future job



Hello classmates! ¿how are you?
Today, I talk about something very important for me, my future job. But despite of his important, I don't think so much about this topic.


It's really difficult think in my future job, because I think that always the way made it when you walk, because you only can eat the fruits that the tree give you.

But if I could choose my future job, I will work in other city or another country.
I desire work always in different places for met new people and taste new experiences, my ideal job would allows me a continuous learning. Ideally continuing with my profession in a interdisciplinary team. 
For this, aspects important for me are the experience that job offers me, if all this accompanied a good salary, better for me.
Salary is important, but isn't fundamental, the experience always is the most important for me. Another important aspect to consider for chose a job is a friendly atmosphere, because all people working better is feels good and relation with boss. 

I worked only in little jobs, but about the sociological profession experience, nothing yet, because I’m only a student. Actually, my priority is learning about all that I can, and is self-sufficiency to leave the house of my parents, for this, a job far of my house, in another city or another country will be ideal in this moment, especially because I’m not afraid of new experiences.

Finally, if someone asked me about my strengths, I could mention that I am very hard working, responsible and bold. And if someone asked me about my weaknesses, I could mention that my little patience, my bad mood in stressful situation and I’m a demanding.

That’s all.  See you!

Art


Today, the topic is free, and for this, I talk about the art like self-knowledge tool. Always art has been a form to express self-ideas, and to construct our personalities and own world.
Personally, I passed for different forms of express my feelings, when I was 8 years; I made ballet, a form of classic dance. After, I try to paint, but wasn’t a good idea for me, never I was good for this. I try play music too, I try play guitar, but I can’t achieve. Another form of art that likes me is photography, but I don’t have a good camera for this.


Actually, the art isn’t in my life a topic crossing my life, but by the way, I always return to it.
I think that is very important find manners to express all things that u couldn’t say, the unspeakable.
I admire so much people that many effort, achieve play a song, finish a paint, people who achieve do a little space in their life for express of a wonderful form, feelings.
Especially because work in art needs dedicate so much time, and try, try and try too.

Why I understand the art like a self-knowledge tool? I think that people ever speak, like if this was the only one way to communicate how thinking, how feelings their experiences, but art is a way too, It’s a form to say all that u can’t say fixing words, even searching in other languages.
Finally, I declare that I will go on! Because I love art like a tool, but like a purpose too.
And you, what’s your opinion about art?

Greetings!

How green you are?


Times like these, the environment is really affected for humans, who are worried only for buy all what cross his life. And these, generate always industrial production, and pollution. Owning to, is very important that exists people who cares the planet, specially because is the place that we live and all that happened to earth, happened to us, of different ways.

Personally, when I was a child, always cares the earth, sometimes I goes to plant trees to the hill, I learn to do compost and I learn about “dripping system” to water plants. I learned so many methods to care earth in the primary school.

Respect to recycle, in my house can’t recycle, cause my family don’t have time to find a recycling place, and we don’t have space for keep the glass or cardboard in my house, because my house is really small. Only I try to off lights when nothing is in the room.

Actually only to support on Greenpeace, like ciberactivist, send e-mails to people and add to demands of Greenpeace about care the environment. When distances are short I prefer use my legs, and I buy a bicycle to do exercise and reduce my carbon footprint.

Also, I was vegetarian for two years, because I loved animals and these was the way that I found to leave of feel me guilty for his pain, but the problem isn’t the consume, is the production, ever. Today my diet is normal, I returned to eat meat because I lost hope, and my parents wasn’t happy with my decision, be vegetarian produced me very complications with my family.

I think that so much problems are cause all people is very worried to be nice for the others, and be admired, is the ego the principal problem. The model of person to admire isn’t a people worried like others, is a person competitive. And when you, after all, prefer care the earth, you don’t have tools for this. The city needs places what support the recycle, municipalities worried of the pollution.

Michel Foucault

Hi classmates! Today I'm going to talk about a free post, and I chose a very special person for me, an author very important in my field; Michel Foucault.

I admire to Michel Foucault, because not is an expert, he knows of different fields and is a cross-curricular contribution for all areas to social sciences.
Michel Foucault was born on France in 1926 and died on 1984 of AIDS. He was a philosopher and historian of the ideas, he studied philosphy and psychiatry, he was really a very curious person. He has done in social science very much, his work was about investigations of social institutions; specially about jails, hospitals, and mental hospitals, also studies of the human sexuality, all around to reveal the relations of power between knowledge and discourse.

Also he was a political activist, and he was try to show that a thinker can have a politic position, because researcher can't have a biased point of view, all people he learn in every moment of his life. He was try to refuse the point of view that indicate that all researchers are neutral politically.

I like him because his ideas was very interesting and helped to my field to think how you can learn, and how this knowledge can help you to transform yourself and your self-ideas.
I think that researchers like Foucault can help at all to open our minds.

I hope you liked it!
Kisses!

Chávez wins in Venezuela


Today, I'm going to talk about a new of “The Guardian”, and then I will connect this with my career.
The new that I chose, is the triumph of Chavez in venezuelan election, yesterday.
The venezuelan election was a really important event to all, because marked a historical moment; Chávez defined the continuity of his government. 


The election is really important in this case, because Chavez sustained 14 years of a long communist government, and win it was an opportunity to show a legitimate government, and reinforce the communism in a capitalist world.
I chose this new, because is a really special instance, here plays so much political forces, and of the election depended the future of Venezuela, his in-dependence respect to United States of America and the working and exportation of raw material. And all the possibilities of reach his self-developing and his self manners to live.

Nowadays, many countries chase a developing thinking in the present, thinking in the production for today. For this only manner of see, like the only one way, others possibilities like communism allows dream in another possibility of future. This possibilities of dream, when are in a public space, are collective. And about the new, and his importance with my future career, I can say that sociology can see how the society chose to risk it, how can communicate it could build another different ways. If you are interested, the new was extract to:

Blue Whale

Hello!I love animals! And this is the reason because today I'm going to talk about my favorite animal: blue whale.

Blue whale is bigger animal on the planet Earth, the bigger from the earth and ocean, since that exists this planet. It's a marine mammal, a very special animal.
Blue whale can grow to 31 meters to long and his weigh can be 84 tons. And his name is blue whale because his appearance is color blue and gray.


I love this animal because it's a very special and beautiful, I love that can communicate through sounds, this made me shake all my soul. When you see a blue whale, you can see that special things not necessarily be full all with his colors and sounds, can be in a simply form.

Blue whale lives in all oceans because his migrate all year, searching cold waters in summer and hot waters in winter. For this reason, I could see one ever, but I couldn't have one in my house, because are animals really big and his ecosystem is the sea, and I don't have a sea in my house and I think that I never could have one. They are free animals, not are dangerous, but lives in another place.

Something special from blue whales are the form of communicate, because is through sounds from low frequency between long distances in ocean. However, the sound made from humans, has made it difficult the communication between whales, also chemical contamination of seas that polluter water that whales drink, transmitting polluter from mothers to baby whales between breast milk.
For this reason, is necessary care the sea and water!

 I give u a beautiful video about blue whales! I hope you like it!
