Post 7: Favorite book

Hey!

I have not read for a long time (in fact, since I left school I have not read for fun, I only read things from the university) but I have not forgotten the books that I liked the most in their time. One of them was the Steppenwolf of Hermann Hesse. This was a book with a different theme from what I usually read, and it had a great impact on me. Although it was a book assigned for a school test, it became one of my favorites, reading it out in one day. Another of the books I liked the most was Animal Farm and 1984 by George Orwell, who is my favorite author. I found his narrative very interesting with a strong social criticism and historical review.



However, my favorite books are not limited to those two. I loved the saga of The Hunger Games, Wonder and a Monster calls, these last was two of my favorite book themes, a mixture of stories of self-improvement and unconditional not romantic love (I admit that I cried when reading them hahah).
As I said at the beginning, I have not read for a long time. I think the last book I read was a political science book, called political science, a manual by Josep Maria Vallès i Casadevall and Salvador Martí, which I liked a lot (I recommend it if you like that subject, but it's very introductory) but nothing compares to the satisfaction that the books I mentioned above gave me. I hope to read books again for fun, I think it is something very valuable that I have stopped doing, and it is a different way of entertainment away from the recurring technologies.

Have a good day!

    Steppenwolf of Hermann Hesse is a book out of this world, no way to explain, you have to read it yourself to understand it.

Post 10: English language challenges

Hi everyone! The subject of English in the university was something new, because it was very different from what I knew from school. The methods of written test and oral test scare me a little, but I think it is very necessary, here is not about "theory" or english stuff this is about learning to write and have a dialogue which is much more important and it will really serve in the future. About the blogs, I think it's an interesting  experience. I improved my vocabulary and I added more coherence in my written ideas, because it is usually easy to hear english. But different is to write it and write it correct. In addition, this is an activity that go away of the "normal" evaluations of the university, it is more dynamic, more entertaining, and I can interact in a fun and creative way with my classmates when I have to write a comment to them. I know that mastering english is something necessary nowadays, because it is useful for a lot of things like g...

Post 8: Summer plans

Imagen
When I think about summer and vacations, I see it from almost the middle of January. Maybe it's a short vacation time, but I have to take advantage of it. This is why I would like to go first to my home in Coquimbo, and from there go to the Elqui Valley with my family. It is almost a tradition to go every summer and it is one of the things I most desire now.  There is very relaxing, you can see rivers, hills, trees, do horseback riding, swimming, among many other activities, and in general get relaxed and get tranquility. I also have in mind with my family to go to the South of Chile, to places like Frutillar, the Petrohué Waterfalls, among others. In fact, we have saved throughout the year to be able to go to some of these places and have a good and comfortable vacation. I spend so much time without my family during the study period so I would like to spend the whole summer and my holidays with them! I think it's good to have these instances to share and get to know new p...

Post 2: My best concert ever!

Imagen
To be honest, I have been lucky enough to attend the concerts of the artists that I like the most. So, even it’s a hard choice, I need to talk about my last concert in this year of Camila Cabello.  Camila Cabello is a cuban-mexican singer, she was in the group Fifth Harmony and maybe you will know her If I tell you “Havana oh na na” yes, this song is from her!.  I have been a fan of her since 2014 when she was in a group (Fifth Harmony). I have seen her in two concerts:  in 2016, when she still part of the group (in 2017 she came a solist) and this year in Lollapalooza.  But the last one that I want to talk about was a concert of her tour Never be the Same that was on October 18 (it’s so recently). At first, I was not going to go, in fact I bought the ticket only two days before the concert, and thank goodness I did, because I would have missed an incredible concert. She sang almost all of her new album and some old songs (like Bad Things that is actually ...
