My experience using blogs

I usually feel that the English is not for me, and since I ingresses at university It has been very difficult for me, so I suffer to much trying to do the best in this class and this semester wasn’t the exception, it has been very frustrating. But the experience of writing blogs has even started to like me a little and I have been able to see my progress, very slowly but surely, I think. Besides, I have been able to write about topics that interest me. I feel that my writing skills have improved considerably, and I love that now I know more words because I have had to look for synonyms to write better blogs. I’ll tell you a secret, a few years ago, my dream was to be beauty blogger. I think that now I have more possibilities. I don’t know what I would like to include in the future, I would have to think about it. But if I know what I would like to write about, I would like to write about cinema, comments about films or filmmakers that I like and most likely about makeup and skin ca...

The education is sexist

Imagen
For my, the social movements always has connection with the education because is in there where we learn how be related with the others and, especially this year I think that the feminist movement in general like “Me too” in Hollywood, the demonstrations pro-abortion in Argentina and the “May feminist” in Chile are the reflection of a society that grew tired of violence against women, a violence that is perpetuated, even, from the classroom. Since we are children, the adults teach us how to be a man or how to be a woman, based on gender roles imposed and when we first entered to school, this gender roles are enhanced. We learn that the girls are more “delicate”, and boys are strong. In the physical education class is where the difference is most evident. For example, the girls only can play volleyball or dance and the boys always play football. In the case of separatist schools, boys learn how to be leaders and girls how to be a “miss” -in the moral sense of the word-. Of this way...

My favorite subject of this semester

Imagen
This semester my favorite subject is "research and documentary script" and it’s because of a lot of things. In class the most important things are the personal projects of documentary to the next semester, and we work according to that. We see examples of various documentaries and each point is revised according to the personal projects, basically it’s about watching movies and talking. The principal contents of the class are about how to research for projects, how to make a synopsis, a storyline, how to approach the characters and interview them, etc. But, there is not a general rule so, at the end of the day there are many only possible ways to do a documentary film. I like this class, because the teacher is Lorena Giachino, a Chilean documentary filmmaker, recognized and with a very good filmography like “El gran circo pobre de Timoteo” and her latest movie “La directiva”. She’s very concerned about giving us the feedback of our projects. Besides, it’s the class that h...

Imagen
Patricio Guzmán is a chilean screenwriter, producer, editor and movie director.  He was born on august 11st, 1941 in Santiago. He says that his education was not went common because his family - in his own words - were "nomadic and disarticulated" so he went from school to school. Then he studied theater at the University of Chile and then he traveled to Spain to studying in the Official School of Cinematography. He returned to Chile in 1971. After his capture in 1973 for the coup d'état carried out under the command of Augusto Pinochet, Patricio Guzmán was go exiled to France. He has made more than twenty documentary movies, among which are the trilogy of “La batalla de Chile”, “La memoria obstinada”, “Nostalgia de la luz” y “El botón de nácar”. These are his more famous films. Most of his filmography speaks of the era of dictatorship in Chile and this is a subject that obsesses me a little. His films have a stamp of elegance and solemnity thanks to his cinematogr...

My favorite scene of Game of Thrones.

Imagen
The last three years I seen many series, but there is one series that obsessed me, and that is Game of Thrones (I've seen it four times). GOT is a TV series based on the novel "A song of ice and fire" by George R.R Martin produced by HBO. This is the story of a medieval and fantastic world with dragons and white walker (like zombies, but different), and some noble families; Lannister, Stark, Baratheon and Targaryen, they fight for stay with the iron throne. It's so difficult to choose a scene but I think that one of my favorite is when Daenerys Targaryen, interpreted by Emilia Clarke, in the chapter 4 of season 3, takes revenge from the masters of Astapor, and saves the slaves, then she leaves with the army of unsullied. This is a very great scene for me because in the last minute she decides to show the merchant that she knows the language after he told her that she is a whore thinking that she doesn't understand that he says. She is a symbol of female em...

The story of a picture

Imagen
In the summer of 2017, me and my family traveled to Perú only for vacations. This picture was taked   in February on the beach of Lurin in Lima, Peru. It was taked by me, isn't so good but I was just learning to use my camera.  Although it's not seen well, deep down they see my brothers are bathing in the sea. This place was our first stop when we returned for the first time after 15 years. I like this picture because as I said, it was the return to my father's country, and I felt so strange because I did not remember how the beach looked there, but it was beautiful and the water was much warmer than in Chile, so I wasn't afraid to wet my feet. At that time I was going through episodys of anxiety and anguish caused by the first year of my career, so, this trip helped me to feel better and find myself.

Joey Tribbiani from Friends

Friends is a sitcom about six friends who live in New York. They always meet in the Central Perk cafe or in the Monica's house. My favorite male character of this sitcom is Joey, but I have realized with time that he has many macho attitudes. Joey Tribbiani is a young man of italian origin, he is the only guy in a family with 8 children where seven are girls. He lives with his roommate, Chandler Bing, in his appartment. He dedicated to acting in theater plays until he become famous when playing "Doctor Drake Ramoray" in "Days of our lives". This character represents the typical womanizer man that his only purpose is sleep with many women without any affective responsibility. Every night, he sleeps with a different woman. Besides, he sees women as sexual objects, and always talks about the size of her breasts and her bodys in general. Joey loves food, specially sandwiches, and proper to his personality, he includes women in their concept of food, when in cha...
