English language challenges

Hello everybody! Today we have to write our last post. Learning english is something that has been very difficult for me my entire life. When I was a little kid, I didn't have english classes very often, so I didn't have a good base. When I was in middle school, I had the chance to choose between french and english, and in that ocation, I choose french. So I have never been constant in the learning process. Then, at the university, the experience has been very good, the use of the blogs is a good tool to practice every week. And the topics have been very intersting every week.  The ascpects that I have to imrpove are grammatical and the talkins skills. I get nervous sometimes when I have to talk in english with other people. I have been working in this by practicing with my girlfriend, who has a lot of patience and is always trying to help me.  I have been using english when I practice with my girlfriend and we start playing and trying to use it in the regular days.

Changes to your study program

Hello Everyone This blog i going to write about the changes i would like make in my career and study program. In first place i going to speak about my career. I study sociology and this career work about the organization and analysis of society, t his mainly from theory and statistics. One of the main things to change, has to be the little connection of the race with society, that is, practical work. It is also necessary to integrate new notions about new social theories, without having to ignore classical theory, but complementing it. It is also necessary to teach new methods and statistical programs. When I entered the career, only two statistical programs were taught and one of them has a very expensive license for what is uncommon to occupy in working life. Regard the duration of work, unlike other careers, it is short for the amount of material necessary to see. The academic load is high. Each test means a large amount of material to be read and statistics work...

Opinions

Hello everyone! Today we have to talk about our  opinions. The first topic is about owning an exotic pet: Regarding this, I believe that the possession of this type of animal is at least complex. They belong to very specific environments and are generally related to a specific way of life. This requires, in part, that they must be given extremely special care so that they do not develop diseases related to their captivity. "A golden cage, it's still a cage" The second topic is about Chilean traditión called "mechoneo" Regarding the "mechoneo", I consider it a terrible practice. It is based on the asymmetry of relationship and especially on the fantasy of exercising domination. It is a terrible tradition that is related to the torture and humiliation of the other. It must be a prohibited practice in its original form, but I believe that another activity related to a welcome or integration of new mate is necessary. The third topic is about r...

If I win the lottery...

Hello everyone! Today we have to imagine what we would do if we win the lottery.And this is something I think everybody has dream once ar least. Currently, I live alone with my mother in a Little house in the backyard of my grandmother’s house, so the first thing that I would like to do is to have a nice place where we could live peacefully. My   mom loves everything with plants and flowers, so a house with a garden, as the teacher mention.Secondly, I think that I would invest in houses or apartments to rent them, that way I would have a little income besides my salary. One of my dreams currently is to have a printing office. I really like books and even more, old books that are not longer in the market. Besides that, I like books that are about socialism or marxism and I would like to have a printing office so I could reissue some colections. This inspiration came from a printing office caled “Prensa Latinoamericana” that printed books and they selled them in a very cheap pric...

Post graduate studies

Hello everyone! Today we have to talk about post graduate studies. To be honest, I'm interested in studying a postgrade. I really like to study and tobe leraning new things from the area of my discipline but at the same time I understand that it is not cheap to do it. Probably I want to postulate through a scholarship to study in other country, my dream has always been to study in Germany but I doubt that I would learn german, I find it a very difficult language. In that sense, I would like to study a master in economics and after that I would like to study a PhD focus in sociological theories. Among the countries that I would like to study in  are England, France or Italy. My motivation to study a postgrade is mainly related to knowledge. I like to study, I like to learn and to be able to apply what I learnt. Also, in this context of a market societyi is almost required the certified perfection of the professionals. Other part of this is the problem of the "overqualified...
