PosT 8: English Language Challenges

This is the last blog that I will publish for this subject, so I am sad. The truth is that I have never gotten along very well with English, but this semester I really liked having this subject. As we were able to post on the blogs, I think we learned a lot more, since we were able to write and correct our mistakes always. I think the blog and everything we use to learn in this subject were very good tools. Regarding me, I really need to improve my English in all aspects. Everything in English costs me. But one of the things that I always find difficult to understand are the verb tenses. I have never been able to learn them and know how to differentiate them. At first glance I can only recognize the Verb To Be, like Felipe Avello hahhaha. I really want to learn the verb tenses well one day. For that I have to continue studying even if it's on my own. In addition to the classes, I am always listening to things in English. Sometimes I listen to interviews in English, which perhaps ar...

Post 7: Changes to my Study Program

Imagen
  I am currently studying journalism, and many of my classmates and I have tried to change the curriculum that we have, because it is not the best there could be. The curriculum that we have is sometimes very ambiguous, and we don't have so many technical and specialized subjects of journalism specifically. The workload in some subjects is to much, more if it is compared with the credits that we obtain from these, being sometimes subjects with a lot of academic load and with only 2 credits.  I think the duration of the race is fine. It's 5 years, so that is okay. The faculty facilities are not bad, but in some cases they are not the best either. Sometimes there are not enough equipment for all journalism students. But overall not bad. The institute has good technology, at least for me. Sometimes it fails, as I said, in the quantity of equipment or in the quality of the licenses we work with, but all in all it's not bad, and in any case we can study and use technology for wh...

Post 6: Time Travel to the Future

Imagen
If I could to travel to the future, I'm really not sure of the moment and time that where I would like to travel. But, since in this case I have to choose one, maybe I would choose to travel in the time to the year 2030. I would choose this year because I think that by that time I could see what I'm doing with my life. I could know what I'm working on, if I became a detective how I would like, if I'm still in a relationship with the person that I think or if I achieve everything I want to do. I don´t know where I would travel, since I do not know where I will find myself in 2030. Maybe I am still in the country or I am already living abroad, in the United States or in London. The truth is that I would not like to stay there, because if I travel in time to the future it would be only to see what happened to me. So I would look for myself, see myself and return to the present. I don't find it very interesting to travel to the future at some specific point, unlike in t...

Post 5: My Future Job

Imagen
The job that I want to have in the future, it's a job I´ve wanted for years. I would like to be a detective or if that doesn´t work investigative journalist. I imagine it as my dream job. Generally this work should be indoors in the moment of data research, but it is also work outdoors to follow leads, follow suspects or investigate. So, it´s a mix. I would like to be a detective who travels the world investigating different cases. And since I would be traveling to different places, I couldn't have a stable office, but some temporary ones where I could organize my research. Something like the typical thing that is seen in detective movies, with investigation boards and everything jaajjaja. As I am studying journalism, my idea is to specialize in investigation, and when I leave the University, take courses at research schools or even at the PDI. The PDI, the investigation police of Chile, has courses for journalists to specialize in some research topics. I think they ...

Post 4: My favorite TV show

Imagen
When someone asks what my favorite TV show is, I don't know what to answer because there are several series that I like a lot. But If I had to name one now I'd say it's Sherlock. Sherlock is a series that narrates the life and adventures of the famous British detective Sherlock Holmes, but in the present time. The detective solves cases and crimes as in the original story, but in the 21st century. The main characters are obviously Sherlock Holmes, the Doctor John Watson and even the brother of Sherlock, Mycroft Holmes. Besides these there are other important characters, such as Molly Hooper, a forensic who is in love with Sherlock, Mary Morstan, a spy married with Watson, the detective Lestrade, Miss Hudson, the owner of the house where the protagonists live, and M, the villain and main enemy. I really like to watch this TV show because I feel part of this Sherlock's world, and my biggest dream is to be a detective like Sherlock Holmes. Also, I like to watch this series...
