My Experience with Blogs.

Writing in blogs was a novel experience for me, in general, I usually read blogs about music, but rarely commented. Now, I have been able to comment and think about my tastes. The favorite blog topic that I had to write was about the favorite piece of technology, because I could go deep into myself, and find explanations for things I did not have before. Also reading the blogs of my classmates and teacher, I could know more about them. I have developed them in a regular way, because although I improved my vocabulary, I often used excessive help to write. All in all, I think the balance is positive, that writing in blogs was a contribution for me. Continue developing my writing skills depends on me, to face what I do not know and to retain what I learned. I do not know with certainty that I would like to include, but it could be to add a free blog on a topic that one personally chooses. I would have liked to write about topics that I had little knowledge of, so I could tak...

The strangest repeated dream you’ve had.

The most striking dream I've had repeatedly ... was a nightmare. It happened in my childhood, in the dream I appear sailing in a very worn boat, of grayish and yellow color, of small size. The sea had a lot of fog, it is a copy identical to a scene from the animated series SpongeBob where Bob goes fishing with Mr. Krabs, all in a very boring and desolate environment. Continuing with the dream, I start to walk down a corridor of the ship next to the railing, until I reach the bow. Once there, I observe for a few moments the nebulous waters and when looking back, I find a monster that persecuted me for about two years. The monster had a humanoid form, quite skinny, was dressed completely in green and highlighted by his two arms, which were like a very sharp and irregular knives species, his head that was shaped like the sun, it was more, it was also yellow like the sun, and his eyes that were a very intense red, able to pierce the souls. Finally the dream ends when I look back an...

A Subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

The Subject  that I like the most in this second semester is Social History of Chile. In the classes, the teacher uses the narration of a story to explain the emergence and development of the popular classes in Chile. Related to the contents, we have seen the development of Chilean society at the beginning of the republican era. We have also seen the processes of marginality and autonomy of the Chilean popular class, with a focus on peonal networks, artisanal mutualism, the proletarian movement, the origin of anarchism and Latin American and Creole socialism. The last thing we saw was the "social question", the rebellion of the social actors, the emergence of the student movement and the popular constituent power. And more recently the political model ibañista, national-desarrollismo and structural reforms.The emergence of the movement of settlers and the historical tension between the power of the masses and the power of direct action. I like the subject because i...

An expert in my field

José Paulo Netto, is one of the main and most influential Marxists of the reconceptualization movement of the Social Service in the decade of the seventies, having significant influence in Latin America. The analyzes of this author, are marked by a critical perspective of ontological aspect, in the best Lukacsian and Marxian inspiration. About his work, we can highlight some debates that the author develops on topics such as the emergence of Social Work as a profession, Syncretism in Social Work, the paradigmatic controversy in the Social Sciences, the crisis of real socialism and the neoliberal offensive, as well as the options that the Social Service presents towards the 21st century. I like the contemporary of Netto's analysis, and its references to economics and culture. His references to the concentration of power, his search for social justice, in a society free from the accumulation of capital and individualism, also based on democratic foundations and hand in han...

My Favourite Artists

Lenny Kravitz: He mainly works as a musician, in various genres such as rock, funk, jazz and soul. He has also worked as a furniture designer and commercial designer, apart from appearing as an actor in films and television series. Kravitz is a renowned musician in the music industry and in the mainstream. I discov ered Lenny in about 2007, when i was 9 years old. Before him, I only remember hearing Soda Stereo and Sui Gener is on the car trips with my parents. The exact way, from how I first heard Lenny Kravitz, happened while I was slipping down a slide in a water park, on a course walk. They were playing the song "Are You Gonna Go My Way", I asked my parents who the song was, and once they told me, I started listening to it very often. What I like most about him is the ease he has to move between different musical genres, it was an influence for me, thanks to him I was interested in r & b, blues and soul, but mainly, it was one of my first approaches to roc...
