#11

The most difficult task was the listening because I had problems to understand what they said. I enjoyed doing the exercise about “the myth of narcissus” because the principal character of the story was really fun. I think the hardest skill in this semester has been listening for what I said. To improve it I have to start to watch movies without  subtitle.

#10 My blogging experience

Hi guys, today I am going to write my last post in this blog because the semester is finishing.

The blog experience was really fun. To be honest I have never written a blog, actually I didn´t know how to create it but because of the class I learned how to do it. Thanks of the blog I have improved my writing skills so much and I have learned a lot of new words.  I can remember when we had to write about our favorite movie because it was a hard decision. I have watched an important number of movies in my life, but that one was a really good one.  I also remember when we had to write about our favorite photo. That was an easy decision because I am not so good taking photos and I only like one, the photo that I showed. In the future the students should write about their favorite sport if they have one, or their favorite football team. You also should include a post about a free topic because, with that post, we could know better the personality and how our partners think. Well, that was my post. I hope you have enjoyed it because it was the last one. See you soon!

#9 my favorite series

To be honest, I have seen a lot of series in my life. When I have time I just use it watching series. Some years ago I started to follow “Spartacus”, a series about the roman slave who started a revolution.  He was a gladiator, the best one in his times, and some day, when they killed the “dominus” he became a leader.it has 3 seasons and one prequel and if you want to watch a good story, with emotion, drama, violence, corruption and intrigue I recommend you this one. I like the series because, as I said, it has all what I expect for a series, a good story, violence, and, why not, really beautiful women. The series that I enjoy the most are the ones that have violence, good stories, or one character that changes.

There is always a series that I want to follow, but I try to don’t do it right now because it takes a lot of time and now I have to study or my family are going to kill me in home, but in holidays I would like to follow “House of Cards” because some friend recommended me.

#8 A person that I admire

Well guys, today I have to write about a person that I admire.

To be honest I don´t think if a really admire a person; because, of course everyone has things that I like and that I don´t but my mom is really closer to that definition. Her name is Nancy Olivares and she is 50 years old. She is a nurse, a really good one and of course in her work she´d had to saved people. Our relationship is not as good as I´d like because we have a lot of differences because of our personalities but in despite of all we have a relationship of trust and, of course, we love each other.

 I like her because of many things but the most important is that I think that she is a really strong woman for what she does and how she works every day and that makes me feel proud of her.  Well guys, that was my post about the person that I admire and she is definitely my mom.

#7 A place that I want to visit

I think that I am a very lucky guy, because in my 20 years I have visited a lot of places. I don´t know if there is a place that I would really like to visit more than others but I know that I would like to visit all south America more than another places. South America has a lot of places, many cultures and really nice people. As I said I have visited a lot of places and I can say that here, in this continent are the nicest people. Last year I went to Perú and Ecuador and I have known gorgeous cities with really nice people like Trujillo, with a beautiful beach, Chiclayo, Mancora, a place to have fun, Guayaquil, Canoa, to find peace, Quito, where I went to half of world, Quevedo, a wild place where I could try cacao and other beautiful places.

As I said I don´t really have a place where I want to go, but I know that I want to go to all south America as soon as I can.

#6 my favorite movie

One of my favorites movies is “Interstellar” of Christopher Nolan it is inside on the kind of “science fiction” it is about physical, relative time, black holes, and so on. I like it because when I watched it, even when it is too long, the movie keep you focus on it. You have to concentrate a lot to understand the movie, because it has a lot of details that are important to get the main objective.

The first time that I watched it, it was last year; I went to the cinema with my girlfriend on my birthday, it is the only time that I have seen this film, even that, I just needed once to decide that it was going to be my favorite film.

I like all these kind of movies, about science fiction, and also I like the movies relative with action, fights, wars and so on.

The last movie that I watched was “Terremoto: La Falla de San Andrés” and if I am not wrong it was two weeks ago, I found it very striking and it is a movie that I absolutely recommend.

#5 My favorite photo

This photo was taken for me, in Montañita, Ecuador, when I travelled with my friends. It was five years ago on 2010, when I was sixteen years old. In this travel I knew lots of places, but the most that I liked was Montañita, for that reason I took these photo, in that time Montañita was an unknown place, where you could go to relax and have a good time. This photo represents what Montañita was, now at days this mural doesn’t exist, and now, is a very touristic place, it is always crowded and you can’t find the peaceful place that it used to be, because of it, this photo means a lot to me and reminds me every single moment that I lived there when I was younger.

I hope that one day this place recovers all the things that has lost, for now, we just have to use to what Montañita is.

#4 My favourite music

Well guys, today I am going to write about music. I think that music is something essential in life because there is always a song for a moment in your life. Since four or five years ago my favourite kind of music is reggae because it is relax. My favourite group is “Los Cafres”. They are from Argentina and they play music since 1987. The difference between Los Cafres and the others groups is simple, they sing in spanish and they are the best group of reggae in Latin America. In 2013 they came to Chile celebrating their 25^th anniversary and I could assist. It was amazing because the place where they did the concert was very small and because of that I could see them really close. This year they are going to come again and I will go with my girlfriend.


 

#3 My favourite piece of technology

Hello everybody. As you can see, my Mackbook is my favorite piece of technology because is really useful. Some months ago I bought it and I´m really happy with this product. It´s totally faster than my old computer and I can use it for many things. I use it at least 3 hours per day, since I have to do a lot of things, for example, I need my computer to check my e-mail, do my homework, study some subjects and listen to music. Despite this, commonly I use my notebook for fun because I can play video games, chat with my friends, surf the internet and watch some movies when I’m boring. Well that´s all. Greetings 

#2 My expectatives for this semester

Well, to be honest I just want to come back to holidays. They were so short, but the reality came and I had to start to study. I´m in the third year and everyone says that this is the hardest year in this career. I have six subjects right now and I´m very interested in two of them. The subjects are Economy and Political science because they seem to be very useful. I didn´t take another subject, because I´m very lazy, but I´ve been thinking and I have to take some extra subject the next semester, maybe an sport or something like that. I hope to learn a lot of things in this semester and approve every subject that I´ve taken.

#1 My biography

Hello , my name is Felipe Frías Olivares. I was born in Santiago on the 16th of November, 1994. I live in Ñuñoa, Santiago with my mom and María. She is not a kinsman, but she is in the family since I can remember. Actually, she is a mom for me. I don´t live with my father, however our relationship is really good. We talk usually and we are great friends.
I´m 20 years old and I´m very proud to say that I study Public Administration at Universidad de Chile. I´m in the third year. My favourite sport is football, I like to play it every time I can, but i´m a terrible player, so I watch football for T.V. My favourite team is obviously the best one of Chile, Colo Colo. I try to go to the stadium every time I can.
