English challenges

Imagen
Hi bloggers! This is our last blog  (cries in Spanish), so today we are going to talk about the experience of English class at the University. The truth is that I thought that taking English at University is going to be more difficult and that it would be more demanding, but until now I think that the level of demanding is really low. I think that if there were more demands we could have learned even more and that it should be more English technical language related to public administration, because in that way we can read and understand easily when other teachers made us read texts in English. Writing blogs helped me to learn more vocabulary and now I even can think faster in English than before I started to write them .Nevertheless, I think that we did a lot of blogs and that we could have done less and use that extra  time to practice our pronunciation. I think that the main aspects that I need to change or study to improve my English are pronunciation and writi...

Changes

Imagen
Hi bloggers! Today I want to talk you about the changes that I like to make to the program of the mayor that I'm taking. The first big change that i would like to do is drop some courses that are useless, some are just stuffing and that make us (the students) lose a lot of useful time. The second change that I would like to make is to  make some sport courses mandatory, because I really think that doing some exercise is really good and it helped to keep in control the stress and anxiety, and that is something really needed, especially at the end of the semester.  I think that the big change that I would like to make it would be related to the space, because I really hate the conditions that we have now. I mean, we didn't even have enough space to eat or study, the building didn't have any elevator, so it's definitely not inclusive  and there is no  room to rest(even though it was suppose to be ready one during this semester). If I was in charge the first...

Opinions

What is your opinion about violence on television? The violence in television is a serious problem of our societies, there are a lot of families that don't have the resources to take presential care of their children so the tv sometimes is the "babysitter" of our kids, which makes the violence in tv a huge problem, because kids start to believe that those things that happen on tv are normal or good. What is your opinion about killing stray dogs to prevent sanitary problems and animal over population? Killing stray dogs to prevent sanitary problems and animal over population is not a solution, the main problem is the irresponsible, insensitive and heart less people that give up their dogs and let them in the street, the best solution to this problem is the creation of laws and programs that penalize neglect actions,  organize activities                                    ...

Me and Sports: a history of unfortunate events

Imagen
Hi people: Today we are going to talk about our sport experiences. My whole life I have been so unlucky and very bad doing every sport related with some kind of ball, I mean it. Every time that we were playing soccer or any sports related to balls I ended up in the nursery, I just don't know how I do it, my bad luck in this sports is like a gift, a very bad one. During high school, I tried to improve my sport skills, but all my effort was in vain, because as I'm a very small and thin girl my partners just push me a little and I was in the floor or the balls hit me in the head, in my hand toes or literrally in my face (fun fact:there was an occasion in which the basketball  ball  crash against a tree and then hit against my face so hard that it left dot marcs on it). So, as you could understand I ended up with a very irrational fear to soccer, volleyball and basketball balls and I never played that sports again because I really hated it. Once in University the s...

Postgraduate studies

Imagen
Hello everybody! Today I want to talk you about what postgraduate  I would like to study. As some of you should know I really like the Political Science, so there is a very huge possibility that I might take one postgraduate in that. I also really like Economy since high school, so that it's a possibility too. I don't think that it's a good idea to study a postgraduate in Government and Public Management, because I don't like it at the same level that I like Political Science and Economy. I would like to study it right after I finish my degree. I don't know where I could take the postgraduate, I just want it to be in a good University, because I want to have a great curriculum. I would like to take it in a different country too. I would like to study with a blended learning, because in that way I can have some  amazing teacher and I could prove my abilities to work on my own. I think that to be a good professional you need to have some abilities to learn f...

A hole world of possibilities

Imagen
Hi bloggers! I hope you have a great day, today I want to talk you about what I want to do after I finish my career. Actually, I have no idea of what I'm going to do, the only thing that I know for sure is that I'm going to keep studying. My dream is to have a Doctorate, I still don't know in what, but I have some possible ideas. Even now that I don't really know what path I want to follow I want it to be something big, I want to have the "power" and the ability to change, in some way, the world, even if is in something very tiny, I want to be a contribution. One of my possible options is to get in to the Diplomatic Academy of Chile, I think that being part of the diplomacy I can make some changes, even if there are extremely tiny. Another possibility is the to follow the line of investigation and become a teacher, I think that one of the most lofty things that you can do is share your knowledge. Well, although I don't know what is going to b...

Why Public Management?

Imagen
Hi everybody! Today I'm going to tell you  what it's like to study Public Management for me. At first I have no idea of what I want to do with my life,  even on one occasion I said that I would never study Public Management, but I guess that I said it because I didn't really know what was about.  The only thing that I knew was that I wanted to be  a contribution to the society and in  some way help to make the world a better place, but If you see it in that perspective there are a lot of careers that do that, so I was very confused. When finally I made the choice to put Public Management as my first option, it was like an  impulse,but my mom was extremely happy because she feels like I finally found my way. I postulate to 5 different careers in total, 4 of them was  from  the University of Chile and the other one  was from PUC,so as you can guess I wasn't sure at all and I really want to study in this University. T...
