Post 8: The Best Concert I've seen

It's very difficult to choose the best concert that I've seen, because I've gone to many concerts and I liked all!

Recalling the concerts that I've been, the first band that it comes to my mind is Franz Ferdinand. I went to see them twice; the first time at Lollapalooza in 2013 (in O'Higgins park) and the second time at Movistar Arena, in 2014.

Franz Ferdinand is a band of indie rock formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 2001. It's called Franz Ferdinand in honor of the archduke of Austria. The band is composed by Alex Kapranos (vocalist), Bob Hardy, Nick McCarthy and Paul Thomson.

I like the sound of Franz Ferdinand, the energetic songs, the guitars and the drum. But when they play live it is much better, because they are very forceful and fun. Well, I love listening to live music and  always I will choose listen a band live.

The concert at Lollapalooza was amazing, they play the best songs and the public was crazy.  I think that the best was the connection that is established between the band and the public, I like the charisma of Alex Kapranos.

The best of all was to repeat the experience the following year :)

Post 7: An Expert on your field

Well, in the brief period that I have stayed in the career of anthropology, one of the teachers who caugh my attention most has been Nicolás Montalva. 

Nicolás is the professor of the subject Evolution. I don't know anything about his personal life, I just know something about his professional career. He is a physical anthropologist and a social anthropologist, both degree he got them at University of Chile. Also he did a PhD in anthropology at University College London, in England.

Professor Montalva has different topics of interest to investigate, like genetic evolution, cultural evolution, human ecology, demography, economy, population genetics, epidemiology and history of anthropology. 

I admire this professor first of all because he is a master, he has two degrees and a PhD! But the thing that I like most about him is his interest to teaching us, to the students. He is the teacher that I have seen who shows more interest in the students at the university, he really wants that the students learn, he is a very enthusiastic professor and that is appreciated.

Post 6: My Favorite Movie

I don't have a favorite movie, in fact I like many movie genres. But I have a favorite actress, so I will choose a movie of her. This actress is Meryl Streep.

One of the movies that I like of Meryl Streep is "The devil wears Prada". The principal actors in this film are the actress before mentioned, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci.

The story happens in New York city, United States. Basically, the story is about a young female journalist recently graduated (Andrea Sachs) who found a job as personal assistant of the editor, in an important magazine of vogue called "Runway". The thing is that Andrea doesn't know anything about fashion and she has to tolerate her demanding boss (Miranda Priestly), in addition she has personal problems (with her parents, her boyfriend and her friends).

The principal characters of this film are Andrea Sachs (Hathaway), Miranda Priestly (Streep), Emily Charlton (Blunt), Nigel (Tucci).
Andrea is the protagonist. She is a young journalist, graduated recently at the Northwestern University, who took on a personal assistant of Miranda Priestly.
Miranda is the editor of the Runway magazine. She is a woman recognised for doing her job well.
Emily is the principal assistant of Miranda.
Nigel is the art director of the Runway magazine and who helps Andrea to be fashionable.

My favorite part of this movie is any scene where Miranda Priestly gets mad with her assistants, because she is really a witch.

I don't like fashion, but I like this movie very much. I think that is because I like to watch Meryl Streep in this strong character, she does it excellently!

I think that the movie will be perfect if Madonna appeared in some scenes (maybe talking with Miranda).

Post 5: My Favorite Photograph

This is my favorite photograph. The person who took this picture was Christopher Drake, for National Geographic. I don't know when he took this photograph, because I found it on Internet.
In this image we can see a polar bear taking a bath and having fun. 
I was looking an image for this post and I found some beautiful photographs of nature and animals. I choose this because I think that is the most beautiful. 
Beyond the cute polar bear, I choose this picture because I love the animals (principally the mammal animals) and I love the nature. It's incredible how different we are, I mean to every creature who live in this planet. There are so many species on the Earth and everyone is beautiful and unique.
Basically, the picture is showing the beautiful of the life and the magnificence of the nature.
Like an extra information, I have to tell that I'm a dog lover, I have three dogs and I love them so much! 

Post 4: My Favorite Festivity

My favorite festivity  is Christmas. This festivity it celebrated on 25^th of december every year.

Christmas is one of the most important festivities of the Christianity. This solemnity commemorate the nativity of Jesus Christ in Belen. It is celebrated on 25^th of december in the Catholic church, in the Anglican church, in some Protestant communities and in many Orthodox churches. Although the exact day of the birth of Jesus Christ is not known (because it is not in the Old Testament nor in the New Testament), the twenty fifth of december has been meaningful for the people of the antiquity that celebrates during the winter solstice in the north hemisphere.

To commemorate this festivity,some days before of Christmas, my mom and I decorate our house with a christmas theme: we put lights outside of the house, we put them in the livingroom the classic Christmas tree with some ornament and we put a beautiful manger. Besides, every year on that date I meet with my family (parents, brother, grandmother, grandfather, uncles, cousins). We have dinner and later we give a gift to everyone.

I like this festivity because I think that the people are  happier, besides where I live the streets look beautiful with all the color of lights.

Post 3: My Favorite Piece of Technology

My favorite piece of technology is the mobile phone. In my life I have had four cell phones; the first was a gift for my birthday, in 2006 and the last one I bought it in June of this year.

I use my mobile phone to communicate with my friends and family, to search information about something quickly and to listen to music sometimes. 

I use my mobile frequently, in fact I can say that I use it on most part of the day; that is because I use the app "Whatsapp" a lot to communicate with my boyfriend and my friends. I also use application like Google, Gmail, Youtube and U-cursos. I don't use the apps of social networks like Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, for example, because I think that is not necessary in my life.

I like my cell phone because it is small, easy to take,comfortable and 'cause it is useful for the communication.

If I didn't have a mobile phone, the communication with my friends and family would be more difficult and I would have to buy a clock definitely. Despite the difficulty that it means not to have a cell phone, I could learn to live without it.

Post 2: My Expectations for the New Semester

Well, at present I'm studying Bachillerato, this is my second year and the last. The last year (2014) I was doing subjects only of Bachillerato and the current year I take for first time subjects of the career of anthropology. 

This semester I'm doing five subjects of anthropology: Archaeology II, Anthropology II, Evolution, Statistics and English III. I like every one of them.

The only extracurricular that I could say that I'm doing is English Pre-intermediate, because I did'nt take any extracurricular of sports or cultural.

About the political world of the University, I can say that I don't like this field. However, it doesn't mean that I'm not interested, it's just that I don't wanna introduce myself in that world, because - I think - it is so close, so dirty, even I can say that the political world of the University is identical to the politician of our country.

For this new academic period, I expect to learn many interesting things, meet more people and of course, pass all the subjects, to finally graduate as Bachiller with mention in Humanitys and Social Science.
