Species existinción

One species that I find it regrettable that are in extinction is the huemul, this animal is part of our national symbol, shield, and no great concern for the conservation of this animal, last year I had the opportunity to travel south Southern Chili and I surprised his landscapes, but unfortunately the previous year to a foreigner an accident happened which made part of the national reserve of "Torres del Paine" is on fire, so much of the "flora and fauna" was lost and just one of the animals that could not be observed was the huemul. 

For me it was really devastating because before reaching the park, we will tour beautiful scenery, and see that part of that place had been torn her aching nature ... It is unfortunate that as individuals we do not charge our responsibilities, gives me much more angry when I think of the Humboldt Penguins located in northern Chile, this story had as owners of the yachts were shooting penguins because these defecated on their yachts... It really sounds crazy, we know not live with our environment, I think if the state is doing something you do not know, so you should act in our culture to alleviate some of this problem... 

I say nothing more because I've been really angry!





The gender differences that really matter - in mental health - ¿?

The news I have chosen talk about gender differences that really matter - mental health, mainly the news declares alleged differences between the brains of men and women communicate uncritically, while a very real disparity is ignored. 

Through her arguments are given to try to distance himself from the differences in brain function, as classic cliché, it suggest that it is not addressing that men have more spatial discrimination than women, and that women have more social skills. 

But take this out of attempts to explain what the news, it would be the "mental health," the main concern being that in my opinion is not ageno psychology these issues. 

However, likewise raises such that rates of psychological disorders are 20-40% higher in women than in men, with specially marked discrepancy for common problems such as anxiety, depression and insomnia, for the news if it is true that men have more problems with alcohol and drugs, it does not balance the difference. 

While these data do not believe that depart from reality, I think it is a mistake individualization of these problems (man - woman), because I believe in cultural rather than deterministic explanations, although the news touches on the issue of sexism, I think it's wrong addressed, understanding that it is a means of mass communication and not an advertising market to encourage play and patriarchal ideas, it seems more marketing information. 

I think that the contributions of this story just because it's relevant to these data with what public policy is, but I personally would have a more critically when writing ... I deviated a little summary of the news, but is that review could not stop because I think an issue of great sensitivity today.

English Language Challenges


With blogs I have been several things, some did not cost me anything make them, and some quite, for example, the blog about "my free time", I think it cost me because it is not usual to occupy free time while you're in college, or at least not for me, but particularly so take care to rest. Most of all blogs that cost me was the build that had little to do with me.


Use of the blog looks good to me as a resource, but personally I think I got used to never use it, despite having made ​​more of an English course where I used a blog, I find it difficult to manage their attributes, in my youth that no was a recurring medium.


Regarding English , I think I need to improve your grammar, I think I hear and speak better than I write. Mainly I think what I need is discipline, that is, be consistent and systematic in my learning English, because I believe that only practice makes you better .


Outside of class are very few times that general management for other things, so the use of English outside the classroom are just in the space in which I perform the tasks for the English course , this situation hope it better to finish my studies for I in the English I recognize powerful tool , that's why I like to take a long and intensive English course and if I would travel opportunities to deepen my English.

2013

Exhausted!
This year has been eventful and tiring , mainly because apart from studying at university I am dedicated to other activities , such as classes do.

In the past six months something did not go so well for me was the end of a course, because when it was time for the final presentations and delivery of diplomas could not be congratulating my students :c.

The problem with this was that was in that week out of Santiago , for a conference of educational psychology , is supposed to arrive on the same day , direct to the ceremony , but when I reached Santiago my flight arrived with another , occurring problem with bags , so only caught the end.

Among the good things that were ocurrienron me news about next year , which left me happier were: 1. have gotten a theme to my liking my memory and 2 . have gotten to a place in my memory for my practice, this meant that I felt very proud , because only then I valued everything I had done so far to deserve this.

Among the things I did not do this 2013 mainly relate to recreational activities , are in fact my goal for 2014 , I would like some that do are : taking a dance course ( I like salsa ) , something like yoga and sports anything manually ! , I love them!.

Well, something pending that I left to do is finish my semester , somewhat difficult , because as I already have a theme for my memory , it is very tempting to start devote only that, but anyway, I fight it jajajaja ...

Books that reveal secrets of history .


I love books that reveal secrets hostoria , but what I like most is when fiction mixed with history.


One of the books I remember fondly is the Romanov Prophecy , which certainly contains a lot of data ! , Stories czars and Russia itself , but certainly most of the events are fiction, and prophecy .

I also remember one book called The Amber Room, mixing stories of Catherine the Great Castle , if it existed, with this room that does not exist and conspiracies made ​​at the time of Hitler , which is also very interesting , because you internalize in the period, yet you are the outstanding book by conjugation with this that are really fasinantes ! .

At the moment I have no knowledge of an author who has been censored , but if I remember all the hype that caused Dan Brown in his book Angels and Demons , as the fiction that had committed to the real story was so strong that it made statements were made about by the Catholic Church , plus confusion in believers .

Ah, now I just remembered ! , Just now this issue came to mind as the church vapulió the output of the last volume of Harry Potter (and the Deathly Hallows ) , as some members of the church declared that had components diabolical .

According to me, this is nothing further from reality , as the book even includes quotes from the Bible jajajajjaja . Well, with that I say goodbye ! .

Bye!

My only experience with recycling

My experience with sustainability arises when I was seventeen years, in  high school Rosa Ester Alessandri Rodríguez (municipal school), in 4th year, because at that time I could go a seminar on this.

The seminar was organized for "Recicla UC" , there is shown in the school recycling, from the implementation of different containers for garbage until finally the final collection and coordination with the trucks of garbage.

At school I got very excited about these ideas, as I involved in the Academy of Sciences of school , I took advantage of that platform to implement this initiative.

To implement this initiative was discussed with the other members of the academy and the teacher in charge, and we had to think about how we were going to install this culture, because if there was no culture, no one would occupy the garbage can.

The teacher in charge, Katy, currently still doing classes at school. Something relevant to mention is that this teacher is teacher history , not of science , still loved his work and supported us in all the initiatives we had.

This initiative did not work the first year, especially there were few willing to work on this, but most of all a hard time that high school students take ownership of these ideas.

Despite the hard work during the year on this garbage separation, is not started, but started the following year, it was sad because I was not in school, but in college, yet was happy because the following year is worked in this :)

Latin movies as a critical reflection of our Latin culture

The Latino films I think are a good element for a critical analysis of our context, well, which I think are good, are those that represent the problem of marginalization in Latin American.
Some examples are: "Voces inocentes", "La Vida Precoz y Breve de Sabina Rivas". The first deals with the use of children by the army and also shows injustice against innocent people who are forced to fight in the war.The second film show you of form realistically the complicated subject of Central American migration to Mexico to make it to the United States and meet the famous American Dream.
These movies are very impressive to me because it looks all pain of our latin american people, from the structural to the exclusion exclusion symbolic. In these films are shown all the problems brought about by the colonization of our latin american peoples, such as: shifting the value of the earth, problems with power (vertical), in other words, the problem of looking down on others, what dehumanizes us, another problem is the accumulation of goods.
Mainly because I like part of our reality show hidden, forgotten... I think it's a good way to reflect, as moves to look at reality with new eyes, to want to change things everyday, I think you can not keep doing the same things after seeing the social injustices that are shown in these movie
