Post 12


Hi, today I have to write about the last months this year and specifically what I think about the English class.
I think that this subject is very important because I can use this language to communicate myself in different cases. For example, in 2011 my partners and I went to Praha to stage an installation in a PQ11 a reunion of stage designers. And in this opportunity we had to talk in English every time, we spoke English to buy things, to eat in restaurants, to buy tickets in the subway and to have conversations with people.
Another case important to use English is in the class because we sometimes we study text in English and is very difficult learn in other language.
For this I think this subject is very usefully for us and write in own blog is a big help to learn write right and make phrases with the correct structure.
I have improved many aspects of my English, for example I have problems with the differents times, every time I confuse the different times of verbs. My plan to mend this is saw films and series in British English, this way help me to think in English with more easiness.
The other thing I can do is talk to my friends in English so we can rehearse  phrases for daily use.
Outside the class I don´t use this language to communicate myself, only in specific cases, for example when I have to study texts for class and this stay only in English.
When I had to study English texts has been quite difficult, for this reason I spect learn English right.

well that its all, bye
I hope my partners and I pass the final test, lucky for all, we really need good vibes.

This year has been a bit strange, the first part was good , I could say I was relaxed most of the time, but then I started to have a lot of work , I worked in several plays while attending my classes .
Sometimes I thought that was fine because I was doing what I wanted , but then I started to feel very tired and sad because there was a particular play that I took a lot of time and effort that no one could recognize . Also, this work made ​​me fall behind with their work for the university. So I would say that this case was all wrong .
But then, I worked in another play where everything was wonderful , made ​​new friends and they knew if teamwork and recognize the work and effort that you make when stage a play. Perhaps with this team we form a theater company , we are still getting together to plan this .
After this period all became rarer still , like every year end energies are depleted , people are a little angry and stressed out , but I tried to stay positive but I have to sometimes not achieved , the truth is I just want graduate , I will not do any more work for the classes , I feel I'm doing an act fulfilling bureaucratic work because it is to show to the teacher that you really learned, but if I am in last year 's obvious that I have learned , so many friends and I felt unmotivated and just focus on graduating soon, so that every day we support to continue working with positive energies . I love my friends <3

Today I will talk about the feria that is located in the Plaza Yungay all weekend.
Now that spring and the sun has returned to our lives, the Yungay feria  has become every weekend.
They are almost a hundred stall that are placed there to sell all sorts of things, antiques, clothing, shoes, handbags, homemade jams, creams, soaps and perfumes craft in home.
There are also times when there is a bouncy castle, children play there and it's fun to watch.
Besides all the municipality weekends has small folk groups who sing and dance in traditional costumes. Usually there are presentations of tango, cueca and andean dances nearby to cultures of Bolivia and Peru.
Also every weekend a group of thirty people drum cajón peruano playing in the square, with its rhythms cheer to all who walk through the place, even causing some to join dance.
I like this place because there are always very different people and activities taking place call all the neighbors.
It's nice to go on weekend evenings because there are many things to see.
It is also nice to be sitting on the grass talking with friends.
I leave you all invited to come to the Yungay feria because I am with my own stall selling clothes to $ 500 and also sell other things.

Hopefully one can go.

Today I have to talk about green living, or the attitudes and activities that contribute to the planet is healthier.

Today the world's population has realized that it is urgent that we become aware and do something to contribute to better health of the planet , we're with huge amounts of pollution , acoustic pollution , visual and worst of all residual . There is debris in the water , seas, rivers and lakes. Debris in the air we breathe , and in our country the city that has more pollution in the air is Santiago . Our city , every day cars filled the streets of polluters . But despite this every day more people opting for other types of Transports such as buses , subways and bicycles. I personally do not ride a bicycle because I live so far from the university and I take much longer than it takes me longer to get there, but still I have my bike and use it for shorter trips . Also sometimes I'll walk to take the subway or bus . I hope it is contributing something . Still I would gradually increase the time that I use the bicycle to transport me .
So far the only way recycling introduced to my life has been in my work , and I've made cloth bags ironed costumes with heat .
I would further research on using recycled materials to build my designs.
As to whether belong in any environmental organization , the answer is no, but at some point I would like uniner to "ciclistas furiosos " I think they are cool .

Today I´ll talk about..... I don´t know...
Maybe say I'd be on vacation and traveling with my friends somewhere quiet and beautiful.
Able to spend the afternoon in the shade, feeling wind and hot sun, drinking beer, smoking and listening to upbeat music. It would be good to do that now, but there are still many things to finish the academic year, many but little time and little energy. But at least try energy I have left is positive.
I think positive because this is my last year in college, after much effort, after so many things, what I am most grateful to have entered the school is to have met my colleagues and friends, wonderful people that I have always felt supported.
This is why I like to do a trip with them, that we have fun for a while, to recover power and end the year as it should, since it's our last year.

Today I will talk about a new connected with my work area.

Enrique Rivera, organizer of the 2014 Media Art Biennale invites the public to visit the exhibition until November 16 at the Museum of Fine Arts.
With over twenty years in the making, is the first time that the Media Art Biennale choose the Museum of Fine Arts as a venue, creating a contrast between the new and the classic.
The exhibition includes the works of more than eighty local and foreign artists, where the works are able to discuss art, technology and science.
Among the artists is Rodrigo Arteaga, who made a map with mushrooms preserved in resin.

I wrote about this issue because it would be interesting for theatrical design mates were up to see the exhibition because we can expand our visual references and further expand our areas of learning to drive creation of science and technology as a tool of representation.


regards

bye!

Free post session 9:


Today I wanna talk about the spring.

This month we say welcome to the spring and with this say welcome to the allergies to.
But at the same time it´s a reality that people make more pretty in this season because the sun return after the sad winter :c .... With the sun the people feel more motivation to make activities out door, and with this the body feel more energy because produce more vitamins and hormones like endorphins and serotonin, the hormones to the happiness.

At time I´m very happy with the beginning of this season because I really miss the sun and I have been thinking that make me more resistant to the allergy, because at time I don´t feel any pain.

Oh well, now I don´t know wath more say about this topic ahahahahha ....
so now I think tell about the movie that I saw yesterday "Party monster" a 2003 biographical crime drama film based on the book Disco Bloodbath, by James St. James.
The history happen in New York with curious characters that feeling freedom at the night clubs until get to a famous image like a celebrity.

I really recommend that film.
Now I need to go, bye! c:

This time also I have to choose the topic of what to talk about. Speak of a personal matter and end with an invitation.
In recent times I have been working on a project awarded University Fondo Azul, which is why I had to miss several classes including English. What I have been doing with a peer group is mounting a play called "Madre Coraje y sus hijos" written by Bertolt Brecht. The university through this fund has financed the assembly costs and it sounds wonderful work has also been quite difficult to relate to the bureaucracy and university administrative disorder. But still have enough money for expenses has been very comfortable.
Agreeing with the actors to make the design of the work was quite difficult too, because my friends wanted to make a design proposal unconventional and bold but the actors had a more conservative view of the work, which made ​​it incompatible place the characters in the space that we the designers proposed. For this reason and time we had to compromise and the result was a mixture of the two ideas were, but for us it was not as satisfying as only we choose to see our design cute, abandoned all talk.
This situation generates enough sadness I may sound exaggerated, because the work that has been done has spent much time and stress, and it has caused problems with the assists even if permission from the management to do so.
Yet all is not so terrible, I can always say I got something positive out of this process, as I learned new things.

To end, I leave all guests for next Monday 9 and Tuesday 10 at 20.00 hours in Siré Augustine to see "Madre Coraje y sus hijos"

This time the theme of which I speak is a choice, it is a bit difficult because I would say several things but in English it's hard, so I'll opt for a topic not as controversial but not of my interest and perhaps some friends too. The subject I chose are tattoos, it is known that the art of tattooing the skin is very old, a while ago I read in wikipedia that a mummy found in the Alps dating from the second century after Christ and this mummy was fifty-seven tattoos on the back, but it is said that in this case did not have a reason as most of ritual tattoos, but the position in which they found could have therapeutic origin and occupying a place similar to acupuncture points .
Also Egyptian mummies found with tattoos, but in this case were the most tattooed are women and they served as symbols these tattoos protectors and as a way to interact with the gods.
But tattoos have usually been part of rituals of different cultures, such as the Polynesian, the East, the Latin American and also in North America.
Personally I like tattoos, I like to leave a historical record on the skin, I like being reminded of the past through a colored scar, so this year I got my first tattoo and I'm very happy about that.   c:

If you ask me which country I would go and see, you might respond that Thailand, because this place reminds me a lot of questions and imagine many adventures. I think it's an exotic and fun because it has an unusual architecture and beautiful landscapes with beaches and colorful vegetation.
if you ever travel to that place, I would not for work or study, but only to know the culture, see new and different things and share with people, for example I would like to spend the new year, enjoy the party in a totally different place. I would try the food, the flavors that have Thai cuisine. I would like to know some temple, study the architecture and relate cultural characteristics.
I like to travel alone sometimes, but I think I'm not ready for that, I like to share the experience of traveling, be silent watching the road, looking out the window, saying nothing but feeling at that moment is accompanied if you would travel to Thailand with my boyfriend, I think it would be very romantic to share an experience in a place like that. I will continue thinking and imagined travel there so that the energy to materialize and become reality.  <3

I have often thought about what would be my dream job, but I've never been able to define much, only that the ideal job for me is one that allows me to travel and experience new cultures and places while I work. Perhaps studying theater design'm on the right track, maybe I can become part of a company or a play and travel and presenting our work. I would love to do that sometime and really think I'm not far from doing. I think that to travel by presenting a play takes perseverance, willingness to work, courage, energy and creativity to solve all technical problems that may arise. Always in such cases and thus unforeseen occur one should not lose control of the situation, you should have an attitude positivia and propose solutions, I think that I have learned over time in all the jobs I've had, especially those related to theater, and you should always be solved what was not as expected. The only difficulty for this work is to sacrifice the time to share with friends and family, because the functions are always weekends or best seasons are on vacation, it is in those moments where there is more work. Therefore sometimes you can accept this situation or not. Therefore sometimes you can accept this situation or not, sometimes you can be working and feel sadness because they lost an important time with loved ones.
This is a decision that I must constantly be taking.

If you ask me for the last semester I can say that I worked hard and learned new things, so it was very tiring but also fun.
In March before going to school I worked for the second time in an art exhibition. But this time I took over the design of the exhibition and museology. I liked working there because I shared with my friends in my old career, Art theory, they gave me the opportunity to participate in this project and understand new things. Another aspect I like working there was that the works were created by visual arts students of the faculty of arts at university, so the exhibition was held in the MAC of the Quinta Normal, a large space in size and in importance , so I felt a lot of responsibility and enthusiasm. Now I can only think of positive things from that experience.
After that I returned to school classes, I was two weeks late, but I caught up as I am doing now, ahahahaha because I also had to miss this class by working in a university activity. 
Then, as I was relating, I went back to school, but I must say I did not learn much, just a new branch named audiovisual workshop in that class had to make a short film in teams, my team was formed only friends, for this reason it was fun working on this project. I also learned new things, never filmed anything, do not take a camera and knew how to work the light on the screen, but now I do and that makes me happy.
These are the things I learned last semester and I think are important to say ......  c:
