Post 10: Happy new year and merry X-Mas!


Hi hommies,
Last post, the final goodbye to this subject! Let's make this post awesome, shall we? I really liked this subject, at school I remember it was really boring because we didn't speak in english, everything was 'spanglish' (english and spanish) so I couldn't practice the idiom. I feel that my english has improved a lot, I hope I do a good oral and written test. I think that the aspect I need to improve the most is vocabulary, I tend to get stuck in words because I don't know how to say them. I plan to improve this speaking with my american friend and talking about no-common topics to search for new words.
Outside the English class I don't practice oral English so much, just written on internet, but in the future I want to go to Canada to improve my English and my studies. 
I hope that everybody had an amazing semester, I know how hard it is to overcome with all the academic charge and how frustrating is to fail in a signature, but everything is going to be alright! Worry about yourselves, specially your health. Remember that you are more important than the whole semester, and you will never be alone. Last message: practice your English! It's such and amaizing tool for your life, and it will always help you with your studies. I may not be the best at English but if you feel troubled I will be here for you. Best wishes, marry X-Mas and happy new year!

Post 7: Environmental Conflicts

Hello hommies, Today, this post will be about environmental conflicts. There is so much to explain but I will try to make it short. Today in Chile there's one particular conflict that has become very popular -sadly- because of the amount of pollution: Quintero-Puchuncaví's bay. Right now I'm doing a report of it and the scenario is impressive: first, media exaggerates the physical scenario. There is no oil in the streets or a black giant cloud above the town (not in the day at least). I have been in Las Ventanas twice because I have had to interview people who live there, and the way media shows it makes such an awful impression that the economy of the town has dropped a lot because people don’t want to go there and get sick. Then, there is the government: they don’t offer a proper solution. They gave a solution once: but it only helped industries to contaminate even more. Isn’t that stupid? Inhabitants have normalized the contamination so much that they don...

Post 9 : Changes to my study program

Hi hommies, Today’s topic is “changes to my study program”. I like the study program that my career has (Engineering in Renewable Natural Resources),  actually that’s one of the reasons I chose it. I like the signatures it has because includes language, math and science, the basic knowledge. But I have one problem with one signature: English. English in most universities is obligatory but here is optional, and if you want to take it, you must fight against other people to take it, because many people want it and there are only 20 vacancies. My professors are wise but they don’t know how to teach, most of them don’t have a teacher title. I had a professor that was awful at teaching; he didn’t know how to make us pay attention or how to explain some concepts so I ended up hating the signature. The facilities are nice; there are labratories (old but still labs), and nice classrooms. I don’t like the chairs but last year the university changed some old chairs with new ones...
