Balance

My experience about the creation of this blog has been fantastic, because I think that the things that I learned in this course are new words and I have learned to read and to write with them.
But, I believe that nevertheless I have learned with this blog, this has not allowed me to improve in what I believe that it is the weakest part of my English learning: the pronunciation.

I think that the most important element of the English learning is to be able to read and write, and the pronunciation or conversation is something that he needs from a practical learning, but it should not be the most important thing. I believe that to write blogs, to read texts and study the English is more important than to be able to interact with a North American inhabitant.

I liked this experience because I can learn new words, the meaning of them makes me have a best vocabulary. Wittgenstein says that the limits of the language that we have are the limits of the world, because he thinks that if we know more languages, more we can understand the words and the things of other worlds. I think that if I had all my available time to learn the English, maybe I would have more options to reach new realities.

The ventajas of this experience they are the possibility of elaborating with criterion the texts, too it is possible to think what it is going to write to him, and this is something positive in relation to the oral language.

The disadvantages of the writing is that I have a little time to think what I will write, because since in Monday Julia send info of the topic and I have to have the text ready for the following day, and today I don't have Internet in my house. =(

A great businessman

In the experience of my life, when I was a child I thought of being a comercial engineer, because I believed in the economic growth, in the development of the society, but I never believed on the free market (Adam Smith is a boring person). I think if I were a commercial engineer maybe I talk about business, how to generate macroeconomics profits, and I think of how to insert the chile in the international economy.

But I started to think about the persons that they couldn’t be a part of the growth of the economy. From that moment i worried for the persons those who are not it departs from the growth. Also of the environment from which I come: My family (the experience of my life has changed my opinion about what I want to be) and my city are poor in economy, society and the culture is low.

I started believing that the study of the problems of the society is possible and I had money to studying tools as transform it. Then, I stopped thinking about the economy and I try to apply what I learn for to help whom need me. But it has been a difficult way because the study is not what there do the people of my city: they work all the days, and to studying is a privilege.

I think that my parents had expected me to be a great businessman, because they want me to have another life, and I can make money and help them survive. But they have allowed me to study what they I want and they pretends to me be happy!

VAMOS CHILE MAÑANA A GANAR!

Us and them

Hello

I think that the topic I will write about today is easy to explain, but I don’t like talk about it, nevertheless this one is a pretty souvenir of my infancy. In the photo, I am the one that is laughing and with a crown in my head, in this time it was celebrating my 8 years of age, and I appear together with my 3 brothers.

It makes me happy on having seen that we are all together, enjoying in the company of other friends and relatives, of one agreeable and entertaining moment. In those years I was living in Curico. When I see the picture, I remember with sorrow what some years ago it was doing: I was living with my brothers and my parents, and I saw them all the day and all the night. It had a pet and was living in a calm place. I was studying in a college that wasn’t good but that was teaching more of the life that of the instrumental things.

Today already I don’t live of this way. I believe that the things have changed and my life has become more rational and less interesting. 10 years ago my father took this picture, and preserved it for the family. He waits every day of his life to meet again in harmony, but it is not possible that this happens because the work there has made us being other persons.

But the photo is a recollection of what at some time we were, and I do not know if maybe in the future we will return to find, maybe I present the image because I have the illusion to return to find all together as a family.
