My experience learning English


Well for this post I will talk you about my experience learning English in this course.


Casually when I was reaching this class (of course I was late) I was thinking about the same topic.
In all this process I think that I had learned very little things, mainly vocabulary. But this is not because the teacher or something like this. I think that the problem is about the structure of the course because when we had the pre-intermediate course the topics were completely useless because they haven’t anything related to our careers and the course was not appropriate to the difficulty.
Another thing that I really dislike and think that is a problem to make this a better course is the compulsory of the course, because we have to come here forced by the university and whit no intention to learn so it’s a problem to the assistance and the attention in the classroom.
And this course didn’t help us in learning English that we can use in class by example, we normally have to read a lot of paper in English but with what we learn in class is not enough, they are people in the intermediate course that cant read this kind of paper so what we really learn in English? Is really necessary a class that didn’t work for us?
Well really I didn’t care a lot, because personally I try to make changes and commentary but the coordination its too arbitrary and I have only one test to end this course
But not everything is bad, I can see that the different teachers have a very good command in the language and have the motivation to make this a better class, and with the last answers that we gave in the last poll the course had some changes like some changes in the topics to some topics more related with ours careers

Well FINALLY this is my last post so don’t wait for anything more

Something about movies


Well hi everyone this is my new post, today I'm going to talk you about movies
The movies has always been a god excuse to see friend or a common place for dates so almost everyone has gone to a cinema at least once.
In my case i don't go too often to see movies i prefer to see it in my house with friends or something like that because i can stop it when i want or see it anytime.
I like mostly any kind of movie but if i go to the cinema is manly for action movies because of the specials effects
The Chilean films in the last time had been very goods because they can show the idiosyncrasy of the Chilean people. In the last time the Chilean films have grown and had been exported to other countries and they had won a lot of trophies and mentions.
In this moment i cant think in a special movie that had left a trace on me (well i cant think in almost anything in this moment but whatever) but i just remember a documentary, zeitgeist, that i find specially god
Well i think that this is almost everything that i can write in this moment so wait for my new post

Some myths


Well hi everyone this post will be about a summarise of a chapter that we had to read
This book is about the myths in neuroscience, a look of the facts that based the myths and the studies that test them
For this summarise I will write about the myth that talks about the supposed that we only use the 10% of our brain.
Some say that this myth comes from Einstein, who responded once during an interview that he only used 10% of his brain .Early research on the brain may have supported this myth. In the 1930s, Karl Lashley explored the brain using electric shocks. As many areas of the brain did not react to these shocks, Lashley concluded that these areas had no function. This is how the term “silent cortex” came into circulation. This term refers to the zones of the brain that don't have a direct relation between stimulation and action, this parts works related with superior cognitive process linking different parts of the cortex like the primary visual cortex with the secondary one and the superior visual cortex making the process of the stimuli and the information more elaborated and complex. One of the reasson that refute this myth is that evolution does not allow waste
, and the brain, like the other organs but probably more than any other, is moulded by
natural selection. It represents only 2% of the total weight of the human body but
consumes 20% of available energy. With such high energy cost, evolution would not have
allowed the development of an organ of which 90% is useless.
well this is an interesting myth because I personally believe it a few time ago before I study this in neuroscience and neuroanatomy, for the same reason I agree with the author
This was a very resume work because of the restriction of the word but its all that I cand do for this time.
So wait for my new post

work stress


Well Hi everyone, this is my new post

in this one I will talk you about work stress, but I’m going to do it quickly because I have to train whit my team and then read something for this class after end a few things for other class ¬¬

Well for work stress I understand a state where you are suffocated with your work and don’t have time to relax, or distract.

Distraction and relax are fundamental in a healthy place to work, because they increase the productivity and make a better image for the company, also and more important, this relax and distraction help with the happiness of the employees. This last point should bee the most important for any business but sadly this inst.

A consequence of a extreme work stress is in some case an increase in the suicide rate, this is the case of the Foxcon company (the company who makes the most par of the hardware for apple). This company don’t know how decrease this rate they even put meshes in the first floor to avoid people who jump of the building

For this and many other little thins is essential to any company or place who have employees or any people confined for too much time, have a especial consideration with the level of stress and hapinness of their people.

Well this is all for now I have to go to study a lot of other things ¬¬

Wait for my new post

A healthy lifstyle


Hi everyone this is my new post, it has been a long time since my last post
In this one I will talk you about a healthy lifestyle
I think that is not very hard to follow a healthy lifestyle in this time, you can eat healthy if you buy at a greengrocery making it a lot easier and cheaper, or cultivate some part of your food in the garden that is even more cheap.
Also for the body you can follow a sport or make exercises in the week, this isn’t so hard if you get used to it, and you will be more active and attentive in the week
A healthy lifestyle also include a more active life, like going to places where you can go to different sides and walk, or do things not in a car when you go in holidays.
This kind of things also will make you conscious about the environment and the global warming, and will motivate you to change the way that you do things, like ride a bicycle in spite of a car, recycle, or decreasing the carbon footprint (changing the materials that you use in the common life for other that are eco-friendly), etc
In the end you will notice that is not so hard and is cheaper too (if you know where buy), and will help to the environment. More important is that it will help you with your health making you happier and healthier
Well this is all for now wait for my new post

That place...


Hi everyone this is my new post

In this one I will talk you about my favourite get-away, this is the place where I go everytime that I can

For me this place is Buchupureo a little town near chillan, this is a place that is not very known because is between mountains and haven't too many people, only the past year they paved the road because the highway, so is attracting new people

This place is beautiful, really gorgeous because you have the beach in five min, you have forest and common field, and there isn't too many people who can bother you. The landscape are specially beautiful because look at the sunset between the rocks near the beach and the sunrise in the mountains are amassing experiences, and go to the prairie with no trees only flowers are the perfect place to go and walk, or get lose in the autochthonus forest are amassing experiences.

My family almost founded this town so they go to there since that time, in February is almost the only time that the biggest part of the family meet, so is the perfect time to hang out whit cousins, grandfathers, uncles etc. This is mainly because we have a very extensive part of ground so all the houses are together, and have the same yard and all is a common area

Well I would like to tell you more about this place but I have to go to see my grandmother to the hospital.

Wait for my new post

Also sprach Zarathustra: Ein Buch für Alle und Keinen


Well, hi everyone this will be my first post of this semester.

This post its about a book that I really like, this was the first book that I read about philosophy it calls “Thus Spoke Zarathustra: A Book for All and None” it was written by Friedrich Nietzsche. This book is about a wise old man that come from the mountain and start to talk with the people, about different topics trying to help them to reach the superman, he talks about some of the steps or transformations that all mankind have to go trough to reach this superman, well this is a very simplified abstract of the book, because the objective of reading this kind of books is not to learn what the author say, but about thinking about the same things and compare about what the author says.

I read this book like two years ago when I end the school mostly because of the class of philosophy, that I really love, so in that summer I start to read some books of this topic like the one that I already talk you, after these I read an Arabic author but I cant remember the name of the book. In this moment I'm trying to read “Crime and Punishment” by Dostoyevsky but whit my schedule its a little complicate.

Well its late and I'm tired so this is all, I have to train tomorrow so I need to sleep

This is all for now, wait for my new post

Final post! finally!


Hi everyone
Finally this is my last post
I feel very sick now, so this post will not be so elaborate like the others
In this one I’m going to talk about my experiences as a blogger. This wasn’t my first blog, I already wrote a few posts in other blogs in the past mainly related with technology, but in this case I didn’t enjoy it because I was forced to do it, and I didn’t like a lot of the themes.
But not all is so bad, because it is a different way to learn English, a more near to the students technique, not only text in a classroom. The presentations were also a very good way to learn about ours careers and practice our pronunciation.
After this blog I don’t think that I had improved mi writing in English in a significant way, but I really think that this is a good way to learn and practice our English writing, but it has to got improved, by example, I never had a correction in this year (only a few in the class but never a comment of a full post)
In conclusion I think that make a blog is a very good way to learn English, a new way to see the English in a practical way in a new area like internet, but also have a lot to improve. So I encourage the teachers to continue with this, but also that make a few changes but the idea is good.
Well this will my final post here (I don’t know if the next semester I will make a new one)
Bye everyone finally! XD

what area?...


Hi everyone this is my new post
Today I’m going to talk about what I hope to do in a few years, this post is orientated to show what area of physical therapy I like most.
I’m not very sure about all the areas of my career because have a lot of different sides that haven’t been exploited. But I think that I will work in the beginning in my personal projects (I had described one of them in the last pos), they are manly for the community, so I plan to start them the next year and empower them when I graduate. This will give me experience in the area and as a professional, so that is one of the first thing that I want to do.
After work in those projects I hope to start working in some place to make money for improvement, or if I have it, I will make courses about manual therapy principally because is an area that I already now, or an area that I like in the moment, the problem now to do this is that in the present I didn’t now about how the physical therapist works in every field.
What I really know is that I will not work in investigation, this is an area that didn’t like me, I already have a few approaches to the investigation, because of this prokects that I already told you.
Well this is all for now, because I don’t now what I ´m going to do, but I really know that physical is the career that I really want
This is all for now wait for my new post

About health


Hi everyone, this is my new post
Today I’m going to tell you about a project that I’m working on
It’s about helping people in their common life, by creating a group of physical therapist who can correct and help to do all the movements in the right way. An example for this are the old people, this group can go to the municipality and work with the join mobility, or the people who works in a supermarket etc
I’m working on this because the common people doesn’t care about their health and the most typical problems in the back and a lot other kinds of pain are because of the posture, a bad movement, or a mismatch strength. The people doesn’t have a realy idea about how the common life and their typical movements can affect their health, but when someone shows them about it they become aware of this and start to change their routine
Well this is a project that I’m currently working with a few professors in the university, they are helping me to make it serious. The next year I’m going to present this in the traditional ways
Well in any case the presentation here was very hurry, and not so specific so doesn’t represent very well the purpose of the project
This is all for now
Wait for my new post

Hi everyone this is my new post
In this one i´m going to talk you about the supposed man world
This is a really men world, where the men get better jobs and best salary for them, but this is changing because of the new power of the new generations of women who are showing disagree whit this man tendency.
But all starts in the base of these stupid society where the women is shown as one object more. And with the attitude of some girls that the only thing that they want is to be one object more.
All these things had they root in the inability of the people to think, think about they want, about his life, and about what is happening to them, so to solve this problem we need to create a bigger change in society, a change of thinking, to reinsert it, to make people communicate with other and see other like equals in thinking and capabilities
i´m sure that if we start to think, and see other peoples in the same way we can make a new society in equal thought and skills, but this depends only on us
This is all for now

Hmmmmmm fooooood...


Hi everyone this is my new post
And now I will talk you about the food


In my case I don’t have a favorite food, but I really like a lot of things, like the junk food, but also I like a big other variety of things. I think that any type of food can be good if cooked well, so I really eat almost everything. Because of that I can go to any type of restaurant and finds food that I like (so I'm not a problem if you want to invite me to dinner)

I never feel guilty for eat something, because I make a lot of sport in the week so the type of food or the weight are no problem in my case, other reason to eat anything I want is that in my house are always healthy food, by example I never eat fried things in my house so anytime that I want to eat a McDonalds I don’t have a problem.

I don’t recommend a diet, I only say to people that have to make sports because with that they can eat everything that they want and also have a good health
Well that is all for today
Wait for my next post

Something about my carreer


Hi everyone
it's time for a new post, in this one I will talk you about some things about my career mainly about what I expect of it and things like that
First of all I expect to be a good professional, making the best treatment that I can give for people, not patient, also making projects for the community that can make a better quality of life to people. In the present I'm doing three project for this so I expect to continue doing others
In my opinion the most important thing of being a physical therapy is take care of the patient, to real concern about how he feel, if he is in pain etc
If I really want to show what I like of physical therapy or why I decide to study this I need more of one post, because there a thousands of reasons that I have to tell
So this is all by now
Wait for my new post

A person that I admire

Hi everyone
This is my new post, in this one I will talk you about something of my career (physical therapy) specifically about a very important girl, that I personally admire Carolina, she is physical therapist in the indisa clinic and works in the traumatology area.
She treated me after my surgery in the hips and make an excellent work using a big variety of treatments, not only the typical but many others that other physical therapist don’t usually use, that because she had just graduated from the university a few month ago and want to try a lot of things.
While she treats me, I could know her better and make a relationship. We see each other out of the clinic and go around sometimes, even now a call her sometimes to go to drink something or just to talk.
In fact now, after end this blog I will go to the clinic to see her because of my ankle. I had a sprain and I need to start the treatment, so I call her and she said me that there is no problem and I should go
So because of this I admire she and because of all of her work
So this is almost all
See you in the next post

Hi everyone
This is my new post. It’s about the hobbies.
My hobbies are mainly the gadgets and general technology. I always look at my favorite pages; lately I’m more interested in linux and android because I will start to work in them, mainly programming, making reviews, and troubleshooting and sometimes giving technical service. I only do these things when I need money because I don’t like to charge for what I know. I started this hobbie when I was young, trying to repair the computer of my grandfather when I unconfigured it.

Another of my hobbies is playing guitar, mainly “trova” like Silvio Rodrigues, Eduardo Gatti, etc I also started with this when I was younger, my cousin taught me how to play.

Reading is other of my hobbies, I started this not too long ago, when I decide to read some philosophy, and after that I begun to read a lot of that, the writer that I most read is Nietzsche, Kant and some of the same line.

These hobbies had been very important because they form a very important part of me, reading philosophy is more than just reading, was to get started in the thinking about everything, a little more deep than just the daily life. That help me to know a lot of things and to see a lot of different points of view.

The computers and gadgets help me to solve problems and different ways to resolve riddles

Well this is a lot of my hobbies almost all of them , they are other but are secret’s

Earthquake


Hello everyone this is my second post on my blog


I will tell you about the earthquake in the past February 27, that night I was sleeping in mi home, and when the earthquake started I didn’t want to get up because in Chile there are earthquakes always so I’m used to them, the most of the times are very shorts so this time I won to wait until the end, but this was too long so I finally went to the hallway where there is a safe place in my house, there was my mother and my grandmother waiting for me. After the earthquake I called my girlfriend and my grandfather before the cell phone lines went dead. My grandfather was in the epicenter, where my family goes every summer; even I was there the Thursday before the earthquake.


I went to cobquecura after the earthquake to help because there are people that I and my family knows by generations, and also go to FECH to help


Well that is the most important things that I live about the earthquake


Wait for the next post
