My best holidays!!



My best holidays was recently, and therefore my mind is full of vivid memories. At the end of July of this year, in winter holidays, I went to the house beach of my girlfriend’s family in El Quisco, located on the V Region. I think that this is a wonderfull place to spend many time, where you can just think about anything meanwhile you see the end of the sea and the start of the sky fading out in an infinite line.

This holidays started like a simple idea to go out of Santiago and do nothing related with study. Talking with my girlfriend we decided to go to the beach and hear the sound of the sea, rest all the day and walk throughtout the coast, the rockeries and the forest torwards El Canelo beach. 

Every day we watched a movie and cooked a lot of delicious foods. But well, we did not just do happy things, because the last day we spent many time cleaning all the house, loking the windows’ protections and preparing our backpacks for the return to santiago.

I have so good memories of this holidays because, although we stayed just for a week, this time was amazing, like being in a paralel world. And, there is another reason to belive that this was my best holidays: this was the first vacations that we had in a year, after the horrible second semester of 2011 academic year.

I would like to visit… Rural China!


I would like to go to China, because is a place with a completely different way to know the world. I am not thinking in a big city; instead I want to visit a rural town. I would like live simply, without the big technologies that I can get in Chile, salving the proportion, obviously. The root of this could be in the old movies that I watched when I was a child. This showed me things about the peace of the rural life, but with a great sense of the self life.  I think that the rural China can offer me this. 

But well, actually I don’t know much of this. In fact, the not-knowing has something of adventure and thrills me to go! I think that if you know all about the place you are going to, you will be most interested just on a couple of things and you could forgive live the moment with all your senses. 

I just would like to travel, but maybe work a little just to learn something more like the language or the traditions. This is like try to live there as another person and not as a tourist.

The first post of English IV class




Well, my first term of 2012 was a little exhausting, because I hadn’t time to rest, due to the facts happened in the last term of 2011-12: classes were extended to the summer vacations time. The last one was my seventh semester on the degree and my third semester in Archaeology’s specialty, where I learn things which demand much knowledge. But, after all, I was really happy with some classes like Political Anthropology, in spite that is part of the other specialty. 

During my first term of 2012 I didn’t do any exercise or sport, and just now I am finishing my obligatory sport. But, well, I think that soon I will have time to do more exercise. The fact that I didn’t exercise wasn’t just for the time spend in the university, instead it was for the times I went with my girlfriend, friends and family to the cinema, restaurants and many other places to relax my mind.

The only problem that now I can remember about my first term was a really bad class –due to the teacher-, where it didn’t care how much effort I did, I never was be able to understand what  the correct answer was for the teacher.
