blog10: final

I like very much writing for this blog. Since i graduate from the school i dont writing in english more than ten words in general. Write about my favorite photo, music or about a movie is very funtional because they things are my point of view, my feelings, etc. This make a more flexibility to write what are im thinking.

I feel i have developed my writing skills with this activities. When i started i did not remember a lot of thing, and i spend a lote of time thinking how write something jaja.

The activities we made are fine in my opinion.  The important of this blog is write and write every week for practice, that is very importante for the learning languajes. The blogs that more like for my are the photo, the movie Pride and the activity about music.

In english 4 we can write more about the news (the present), events that occurred during the week, maybe will be useful for make more vocabulary and can talk about those thing with more naturally

This is definitly a very good experience :)

Blog 9: Pride Film Review

I liked very much the movie Pride form various reasons. The film have very funny moments but never separated of the "drama" thats lives the characters, in the sence the cultural think of these times about be homosexual girl or man. Its very interesting can see how the people lives in the 80`s, for example, the welsh people (in general we see histories about the most importants citys of England).

My favorite character was the old woman from Wales (i dont remember her name). Its funny when she asked to the lesbians girls from London about the sexuality or things like that. She always respect and support "Gays and lesbians for the miners".

I think the movie can be make more job about the character with AIDS, because in these years in general the people think the sicks by AIDS are only homosexual people. For many years thats was a bad stereotype by the conservative people, and have this desease must have been very dificult than today.

I dont know if is my favorite scene but i like very much when the welsh miner go to the gay bar to give the thanks for the support and create solidarity between they.

Blog 8: A Subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

My favorite subject on this semester is Portugues II. I been doing this subject in University of Santiago, specifically in Instituto Camoes, from the Portugal Embassy.

I enjoy very much this language since i go to Brasil in the summer (Salvador do Bahía). I love a lote of brazilian and portugal artist, overmost Chico Buarque, Heitor Villa-lobos e Caetano Veloso. Now i listen our songs and i know who they say  (im general).

Almost of people say that portuguese is easy for the people who spoke spanish, and dont study it.Its true, 90 % of words between spanish and portuguese have the same origin, but the fonetics things are so differents! maybe you can read both and understand, but if you are talking is more hard.

The main contents are gramatic aspects: condicional, future, principally. That accompanied by vocabulary (feelings, family, plurals, etc).

In July i finish the course, and if i approved the exams, they bring to me the A2 diploma :)

Blog 6: Music

My favorite singer is Horacio Ferrer. He is a singer from Montevideo, Uruguay,  and his song are related with the music of the Rio de la Plata. He write and sing Tango, milongas, etc.

I know him for Astor Piazzolla, my favorite (for far) musician, in a album "En Persona". The album is only Astor with her bandoneón and ferrer with his voice and poetry.

When i listen "Canción de las Venusinas" i fall in love. After this album, i go to hear the operetta María de Buenos Aires (music for Piazzolla and letters from him). The music that two musicians speak is about the history of a prostitute from the poor neighborhoods from Buenos aires. They wrote about the sound of this city, theys streets, people, the silence who lives in ther passages.

Im very sad because Youtube down this album from copyrights :( ,but i expecy buy this album

My favorite piece of technology

My favorite piece of technology is my laptop. I use it for write when i go to class in the university, play games, see videos and chat with my contacts (i dont have TV and my cell phone is very bad, only i can listen music and talk by Whatsapp. In my laptop i have Linux, specially Ubuntu.
I have fun changing the icons, make changes to the desktop and make the software work the way I like it, something i can not do with windows. In the computer you cand do it anything!

Blog 4: Bread and Roses Film

Bread and Roses is a very good movie because expose the the system of work in which illegal immigrants are subjected in the rich countries. This type of film is necessary because it shows what happens below the image of the "American Dream" sold by american Hollywood films.
In addition, it complies with not being a product of political propaganda, being a movie with a great argument and aesthetically good.

My favorite character is Maya, because she represent all the inmigrants of the third world who goes to a prosperous countries to find a job and a good living.

The change of a neutral persona in a political sense to a activist woman is very inspirational, this is my favorite thing of the movie  . I dont like very much the perform of the actors. I think they dont represent very much "passion" for a situation that really happened.

My favorite scene of the movie is when whe knows Sam. This moment is very important, because is the origin of the change of Maya.
