My blogging experience!

Hi everybody! I think that share in a Blog is a very nice experience, each one of us has many things to share, to teach and to express. It's very good that people have the opportunity of publish in the web without cost and censorship.

I have another Blogs with different topics of my interest (transport, photography, maps, existencialism) and, in that way, I feel so happy with this homework. The idea of write about different topics in English was very nice for me, I could write about other things different from what I used to.

I am thinking of use some post from here and publish it in Spanish, with more details and developing the idea. Now, I have two important Blog projects for the next years.

1. Viaja Fácil por Chile: I want to create a Blog with information about interurban buses, rural buses, information destined to the national tourist and international tourist and travel chronicles. It's an ambitious project! Support me with your visits and comments!

2. Paper World: In my free time I relax doing paper buses and paper trains. I am building a model of a city with train station, rivers, bridges, streets, bus stops for my miniatures. Now I am thinking about the design, the materials and the implementation of this model. For while, I only can show you some of my miniatures with my photos.

I hope that I could do all of these projects and you liked the ideas. Goodbye and thank you for reading me!

Political Economy and Theater!

Hi everyone! My teacher ask me to write a post about my favourite subject in this term. Well, I am not good lying so... I don't like so much any subject of this semester. Curiously, the two subjects that I loved in the past year were Political Economy and Theater.

I always like to study about the society and the economy (I would like to study sociology or economy, but well, I am here and I like it!), so Political Economy was so wonderful for me. I like to analyze the impact of economy in the culture, the personal relationships and the policy. In the course, I learn about the economic transformations of Chile and its consequences. I liked the subject because it had a qualitative perspective and the teacher was so intelligent and clear to explain.

Theater was a personal challenge. I like to write in my free times and I recognize that drama was the most difficult genre to write. So I wanted to learn about it. I wanted to prove myself trying to act and play. I am a serious and low profile person, so this subject helps me to see the life with other perspective. We share personal stories and we made a beautiful group. I loved it and I was much amused. In the final exam, we participated in a short scene of Chilean theater. I was a clown... imagine me! A serious person acting like a clown, a little boy that wanted to learn about clowns. I loved it! And our teacher was so loving and enforced. 

Theater group and the teacher after the final exam.
 I hope to have another subjects like these in the next semesters. Have a nice week!

Pokemon World!

Hi everybody! I will post about my favourite childhood game and TV serie: Pokemon!

I recognize that I am not a fan of animes and TV series, I watched a few of animes in my childhood and another American cartoons like Hey Arnold!, Codename: Kids Next Door, and others. Anyway, the only serie that I loved and the only games that I liked so much were Pokemon series and games.

Me playing Pokemon Yellow game

First, I loved the serie because I am fascinated with the proposal of the existence of many special criatures (151 Pokemon in the beginning) that can evolve and have different powers, and the serie was wonderful in their battles and morals. I loved the guide and comprehend that all Pokemon have strengths and weaknesses.
I like the story and the characters, although I don't identify with either.

Second, I loved the games because it's a new universe with a map, cities and the criatures! I could have my own Pokemon, I could train them and teachs the techniques that I like for them! I studied the strengths and weaknesses to have the best Pokemon ever with attacks to defeat everyone!



I post you one episode of Pokemon's first season in my native language. Oh! Childhood... I will go to play now, goodbye!

A photograph that I love!

Hi everybody! Well, my teacher ask me to post about a photograph that I like so much, but as you can read in another posts, I love photograph and I have so many photos... so, it's difficult to choose one.

I am very lucky to have so many photos about my family, my girlfriend, my friends, journeys and the daily life in the city. I started to want to take photos surfing the Internet and knowing Fotolog pages (uuh! I think it's so old now), especifically, seeing photos about the subway. Oh! How I wanted to take my own photos!!!!

The first time I used an old analog camera of my mom. I don't have zoom, I can't correct or repeat photos because the roll had only 24 or 36 photos. My photos weren't great, but I did it with so much love. My mom bought a super basic digital camera that had 1 megapixel. I continued taking photos to the subway.

And, when I turned 15 years old, my birthday's present was a digital camera that I chosen. I studied all the options of digital cameras and I decided for a Kodak camera. I loved it and I was really happy with it, I was learning about photograph and experiencing with types of photograph.

R121 | Metro de Santiago | Tobalaba (L1)

I take the photo. This photo shows an Alstom NS93 train in Tobalaba station. I loved this shot because it's one of the best shots that I have taken and the train had the Santiago Metro logo (hey! now in that place these trains have a number). It was taken on May 23, 2007, in the morning after to go to school. I sit down in the platform and take it.

I hope you liked this post! Have a nice week!
