I'm sure the English classes has been very useful for me, because is a space where I'm obligated to speak in English, even if I make mistakes. My experience using blogs in my English class has been generally good. Overall, I can say that I have learned to use a blog in a much more effective way, and this can help me in the future in my journalism career. In terms of improvement concerning my writing skills, I find that I have slightly improved. However, even though regularly writing and practicing helps improve your skills, I think that I generally tend to use the same words and sentences, to be sure not to make any mistakes. My self-critique would be to try and be more adventurous and to dare to use new words and phrases. If I wanted to contribute to improving this activity, I think it would have maybe been interesting to write in the same format as we have been taught in our journalism classes (a news article or a essay for example), which could be interesting...

Now I'm studying Journalism in the Universidad of Chile, and I have some changes that could be made to my study programme, even if this has be changed two years ago. One of the most important change for me is about technology. Our society has changed a lot in the last ten or fifteen years: think in the 90's, and you will see the changes. The smartphones and the virtual era transform the way that people socialize. In our field, the communication, the technology create new platforms and is important to know how use this. Even if we have some courses about that, I think they are not enough. Another change that I want is that we need more requirement in the courses. Now, you can approve even if you don't read the lectures or go to the classes. The evaluation ways are too easy, I think. Maybe if we are required to make more essays or investigations this can be solved. Also, I think the sport is very important in human life, because the physical activity help us to control...

This summer, my idea is to work during the months of December and January, in order to generate some income and save up some money. With this money, I would like to travel in February, however, I still haven’t decided where I will go. I would like to get a job working as a waiter, since I have done it before and the salary is good. One of my options for February is to go to the south of Chile, and visit my father who lives in Los Ángeles, and then continue further south until Frutillar, where I would stay in a friend’s house. From there, the idea is to visit different places that are close by, such as Puerto Varas, Puerto Octay, Llanquihue Lake, the Calbuco Volcano, among others. The idea of this trip is to go with a group of six or seven friends, and we hope to achieve it because we have been planning it for three years. Another option is to go to Colombia, though this option seems less doable because it requires more money to do this trip. If I go, I would go wi...

Since I can remember, football has been my favourite hobby ever. I love to play football with my friends in my neighborhood, in university or wherever I can, because I really enjoy playing. I also like to watch football games of the Chilean tournament and around the world, and I try to watch as many as I can. I can´'t remember the first time that I played football, but I remember the first time I went to the stadium. It was in February of 1998, and the match was between Universidad de Chile and Talleres de Córdoba. Since that match I got used to it, and I started going to the stadium every weekend with my father, but now I generally go with some friends and my little brother. The downsides of football are the mafia and the business behind the games, being one of the industries that move more money in the world. But even knowing that, I think football is very fun and has a lot of benefits being a physical activity, because it helps us control your weight, strengthen bones, trai...
