My dear friends

Having friends isn't for a while thing, you don't make friends at any moment. My friends I can count on one hand, and in fact I think friends, real friends, I have only 4. Sandra, Natalia, Amparito and Lorna.

With the first 3 we see followed, but Lorna lives in Antofagasta far away, and so our friendship, though still strong, has not been so present.

Of the other women crazy I can say much. Our relationship is long, and at first, I must admit I didn't think I would be friends with them.

To me, the most important of friendship is to be in the good and bad times, agree or disagree, and have the confidence to tell you what is right and wrong, but also have the wisdom not to interfere in the decisions of your friend .

I have not always agreed with them but I love them for that reason, because we are different and though we have similar values​​, they are a different person, and that's a treasure for me. 

On Friendship Internet, I don't believe in that. Internet chat rooms are media, not the platform to make friends, but to communicate. With people I talk by chat could identify them as "known persons I like them" or it will not talk to them, but what are friends? I think not.

I don't do friends easily so I have so few, I'm very unfriendly at the beginning and I must admit that this is a shell, but if someone dares to cross the mask, they will find my true personality. So I choose my friends well and are so few.

My friends are of the Church in which I participate, so we share the same values​​, and I'm friends with Lorna from school and of life, because we spent too much together, good and bad things, but that we have used to grow, no doubt.

My school friends are people who have changed their lives and I do not keep much contact with them, except for a small chat conversation, no more.

I'm a complicated person for friendship, I don't have male friends because I "confused" is faster and better at them from afar opposite sex  (jojojo)

English lenguage: my challenge pending

Today I'll talk about my experience in this course. The whole truth. I need to approve this course because is an essential requirement for my degree. I should take this course in 2010, with my partners, but I didn’t because I take a job in that schedule. I needed work. It was a mistake because I lost my accent, the continuity and I lost my enthusiasm for English.

I think that English is very important for my profession, because is the global language. And my dream job is to be a CEO in an important multinational company. I must learn English!
I understand much, though I fail to pronunciation, and to write in English. When I listened english movies, I didn’t understand some things.

Well, that is done. But this semester I must pass this course because is most important in my degree.  A good idea for me, was a blogs, because it's fun for me. My favorite post was “green” when I recognized that I’m a bad person (jojo)

I have been irregular in my assists because I had a stressfull job in TV, since July at October that was my big problem.  And in one time I thought I'd stop all, including this course. I’m sick. I’ll be cure soon, I hope. Thank for you support, Juan.

I need learn more pronunciation for final oral test, and I need understand all when someone talk in English. I have thought about making a summary with all the items and formules for different verbals forms, and a vocabulary with words than I can't  understand, my head is hard. (jojo)

When I think about English as global lenguage I recognize all is in english, my favorites songs, my favorites movies, my favorites TV programs: all in english!. And everytime we speak english, is bad, but this is present in our lifes.

With respect to this course, the only one thing than I think is wrong is the schedule, only this.
In my opinion I need more english class and I need to care me too. This is my challenge pending. I don't know if I'll get this, but I'll try.

That’s all!

My dream Job

In these days, when I'm almost finishing my days as a university student, I have thought much about my professional future. I specialize in Public Relations, and I have already worked in the media, but what I most like to work in an international company, as a CEO, working on communication strategies.

It is a very complex and interesting challenge, but I like it. I've always liked the interesting challenges. Many of my classmates thought it would be good on TV, because I had an ability to communicate, but in my experience I realized that working in television is too stressful, there is no time for anything, or for the family, or sleep, because I had the experience of working at night, the worst.

My specialty was in organizational communication, so my dream job is: to be the CEO in communications.

When I was child, I wished to be an English teacher, (jajaja), then Spanish teacher, then a lawyer ... but when I started a precollege I realized that journalism had all the areas that interested me. This had speaking, writing, radio, television, etc. All as children we dreamed of being part of TV, well I was already there and I did not like, honestly. (jajaja)

Another important aspect to choose the job is the salary. The journalists are not paid very well, especially in the media, and there are too many professionals on the market. Another reason why I majored in Public Relations was that there is more work and better pay.

If in an interview I were asked for my abilities I would say: I am not afraid of challenges, I learn fast, I have experience, I'm older, (I’m 31 years old -secret-) and my weakness are: I don’t have experience in Public Relations yet, and I need to learn more, but if I have a chance at a company I will do my best.

A bad person

Today, October 17, declare that I am a bad person. I'm selfish, I think only in the present and not in my sons, I have never taken seriously as recycling, sustainability and all that stuff.

Unfortunately being green costs a lot. It means be aware of many things, maybe easier, but still not massive and inaccessibility.

It is very nice to see on TV of the beautiful places on the planet, places full of trees, but still green consciousness is far from reaching all people.

When I was little I cried to see a documentary about the death of little ducks, somewhere in the world, because of the plastic bags and oil residues. I think it was not enough.

I have realized that caring for the planet is important, but not yet able to incorporate into my life habits to be a true ecologist and defend the planet not only a speech.

I have a car and I hate walking. I don’t have bikes and near my house doesn’t have decent bike roads and, I do not read the labels of aerosols.

This post has made me react. If everyone is equally bad to me... What do we do in the future?

Modern man thinks the speed and immediacy of things the easiest and speedy. Maybe I should have surprised me more as a child. I should watch more documentaries and to cry, rather avoid more channels dedicated to nature.

But I'm still in time to make changes, I'm not that old. What if?

Square Eyes

When I was a child enjoyed so much when I ran and I played with my brother. I didn’t have a reading habit because for me the most important things it was play with the earth. When I had a book in my hands I thought this is so boring. My first book was “Papelucho”, and I didn’t want to start with the book, but I started, I enjoyed that. It was a incredible history, Papelucho was a stupid boy but very funny for me. Since that day I have read all the books "Papelucho”, one by one.

I love read, but not anything. The books written in old spanish, for example “La Araucana” I hate that, but the histories about childrens or young people are my favorites.

When growing up, I used to read to romantics novels. I loved Isabel Allende, is amazing how she can write about magic situations in detail. 

In my life I have read around 100 novels books, I think. But when I started my university carrer I had a big problem. I didn’t understand this topics. I had to re-learn read this kinds of books.

Today my favorite books are:

• Fiction: “Como agua para chocolate” by Laura Esquivel. I have read this book more than 15 time. This book is interesting because it’s a mixing between the kitchen with love, It’s great.


• No fiction: “Brandig Corporativo” by Paul Capriotty. This book is the most important public relations book, because is all in one. It’s the manual most clear about this topic.

In this days I need to read 2 books about my tesis grade. These books are about TV, audiences and semiology. In one week I must finish these books.

I definitely recomend “Juventud en extasis” by Cuautemoc Blanco, for a lot of reasons. It’s a lovely story, with values, and very interesting.

Have you ever been ashamed of your country government?

When we had to post this news on tv channel where I work, we shamed us much, because we let in evidence that something is wrong with politics in our country.

It was a big deal since that afternoon, something so important for the Chilean economy had failed by the negligence of a employed who did not his job well. And had to come a foreign company, Li Energy Spa, to tell people the mining ministry to do their job well.

Shame largest

My editor said it was our duty to report it , though we were ashamed, because the best we can do is tell people the truth.

What made the undersecretary Wagner was what he should do, quit the job because he was in charge, it was wrong.

But not the only incident that gave the penalty these days, what happened with the barrista confessed murderer of the University of Chile? He surrendered and then free him. That ugly.

And again the same problem, what about the laws of this country that do not work in these cases? The lawyer who knows more tricks is the best in Chile, unfortunately. And in the case of mining, they wanted the brother of the current mining minister was a winner, employees were blind to the application requirements.

That happens only in Chile, gentlemen!

My different Independece day holidays

This year, I supossed I should celebrate Independence Day with my family, as every year. But this year was different because my family was separated for different reasons.

My father usually wears tipical clothes, with hat, boots and spurs. And my sister is very funny in this holydays, because she usually wears chilean tipical dress and she dances with everybody. She likes dance cueca, and she wins every competition when she has participated.

Usually, we enjoy this moments. I like this festival because I rest, I eat, and sing with my brothers different cuecas as she dances.

But this Independence day holidays was different because I had to work. Then, I went to curicó for a only one day, 17, and then I returned to Santiago and I went to my job inmediatly. My father stayed with me in the city, and together we made our own "18". He cookes roast and I prepared different salads while in curicó the rest of my family enjoy with my grandparents. 

This year was different but no so bad. The next year I promise to be with my family.
