POST 8: English Language Challenges

Image
In my life, I have always English courses and I thought that I learned because I had good grades, but I would have liked to finish my schooling speaking good English. Probably, if I had a time machine, I would change that part of my past. Currently, I feel more confident with English, I listen better, I write better too, but my weak point is speaking. I have always thought that living in English-speaking countries for a while is the best way to learn English because you can learn listening, reading, and speaking every day, every moment. I hope that in some moment in my life I will be able to live there for a few months. But if you do not can travel, I think that it is not a problem because English can be learned in different ways. For example, reading, listening, or writing. Writing blogs has been important because you keep a study style. Besides, writing blogs is important because you practice and improvements your English weekly.  

Changes to my Study Program

    I think that the journalism curriculum in Universidad de Chile is good, a structure that provides very good journalists that they make quality journalism to citizens, but I consider that there should be a small reminder about the contents such as radio, news releases, etc. Because students maybe could be forgetting necessary contents. Besides, I like some classes that it has different contents such as the study of society, communication, interaction, etc. These classes are mixed between journalism and film students. However, I don’t know any film students yet. Is interesting talk and analyze about society but sometimes is boring to study for exams, but I like the contents, maybe it would be better without evaluations hahaha. The class online I think that has been positive in some aspects. In my case, I think that record the class has been positive from learning, because if you don’t understand the contents that talk professor you can repeat the record and write in your notebo

Time Travel to the Future

  I would like to travel into the future and know the damage caused by climate change. Many people don’t believe in this global problem. They only prioritize their economic interests over human life, I think that nowadays many times humanity is selfish. If I know the future maybe people could change the way, they think about climate change, but I will need evidence. Anyway, I hope that in the future we will have achieved the climate change that today is an urgency. Climate change is affecting the mankind, flora and fauna but it will be affecting our children and grandchildren. The high temperatures in the summer have caused forest fires or the winter is colder every year. Pollution is also a current problem, and we must find ways to make recycling a habit. I am sure that scientists will achieve changing the polluting resources to contribute to society. I don’t want to sound like a dramatic person, but I consider that technology can be worrying because artifacts have made people devel

My future job

Image
I am a journalism student, this is my second year at Universidad de Chile. I am from Antofagasta, and I decided to live in Santiago, fortunately to me my sister lives in Santiago since 2015 and she has been a great support to me in these days. I hope to finish this career and start to work, I know that I won’t work in the mass media that I would like in the beginning, but I must make a lot of effort to get it. I would like to work on radio, TV or writing. Currently, I write in Sentimiento Popular, this is a mass media about Club Social y Deportivo Colo-Colo and I have improved my writing a lot.  I would like to work on radio but doing sports newsletters or talking about sports in a talk show. On TV I would like to do something similar, work in a talk show about sports or work on the news. My biggest dream that I wish very much is travel around the world thanks to my job like journalist. 

My Favorite TV show

My favorite TV show is Dr. House. Many people say that  Grey’s Anatomy  is better, but I haven't watched this TV show yet because I think that it has a lot of episodes and I have little time.  But… I have a confession to make, I have not finished Dr. House yet, but I have watched episodes to defend it. Some people say that Dr. House is a fantastic TV show if it is compared to Grey’s anatomy, soon I will know if it is a true comment.    I like this TV show very much because it is very interesting and the story despite having different patients and medical diagnosis, shows us the evolution in actors and we know a little more about them in each episode. In my opinion, Gregory House is the best actor, his intelligence, sarcasm, and black joke makes the series different from others. I have always been interested in knowing about the disease that Gregory House suffers, and this is explained in three stories, season 1 episode 21. I hope these holidays I can watch Dr. House and I can finis

A person I would like to meet

  Wow, I think that choosing one person among all world famous ones is difficult. My choise could be for an artist or singers, comedians, actors, journalists, athletes, etc. But I must choose one person. I think that I would like to know Cristiano Ronaldo. I know maybe you think that it sounds utopian but nothing is impossible in life.  First Cristiano Ronaldo is from Portugal and he is 36 years old. I like him because I consider that he is a great football player. In my opinion he is among the best players in all football history. If you think about Cristiano Ronaldo you must know that he is synonym of goal and hard work. Lionel Messi is also a great player, but Messi is a gifted person, different from CR7 who is a person of effort and perseverance.  Besides, Cristiano Ronaldo left a mark on the teams that he played and for the Portuguese national football team. Currently, he was awarded for Guinness world records because he achieved the most goals scored in international soccer match

Life soundtrack: I pick myself up and get back in the race

  I think that I can’t describe or express my life like a soundtrack because I consider my life “regular”, I mean, people have had up and down and me too, but I don’t relate my experience in life with the songs. It’s true, I have cried or excited listen to songs but now I can’t remember its name. But I can tell you about songs that I like or listen. When people ask me what kind to music I listen to. I say whatever, maybe is a vague answer but its true, I listen to every musical genre. Nowadays, if you ask me, I tell you that I listen to 80’s music. Men at work I like very much the vocalist in this group, but I like too the songs. Down Under, Overkill or Who can it be now? These songs I listen to when I go to the university or when I am in the wagon, I enjoy travel when I listen to this group. Drake  Maybe he is the artist most current I listen to. I enjoy its music, he makes nicer the time like Ice Cube . I like very much the style in the music of them for example Passionfruit
