Post 3: Films and films

Hello people of internet. I want to talk about films. I really like films, series, documentaries, mockumentaries and many others kind of audiovisual expression.
I would like to have a lot of free time to see a lot of films in my house, or in the cinema or any place.

I see very different kinds of films, I have not a favorite type of films but I really dislike romantic films and comercial films (you know, Hollywood films). Usually, romantic films are a comercial creation... I hate these with all of my ice heart.    

Currently I discovered a good greek director, he is Yorgos Lanthimos. I´ve seen three films of this director: Canino, Alps and The Lobster, and one movie that he produce: Attenberg. All these movies are very stranger if you analize psychology´s characters and routine´s movie. Alps was the first movie that I saw, and after that I felt very confused... I didn´t understand nothing, but I liked the idea of director.

I think that these films and other greek films like Miss Violence, reflect the social caos in Greece before, during and after the recession in the last 20 years. Probably, these movies can be a global representation of occidental society in a near future if economic system destroys the social structure :o

I let you a trailer!!

Post 2: Holidays

Hello my dears bloggers! I don`t have favorite or best holiday because I think that all holidays are a good option for relax, rest and do anything else or any activity with friends, family or funny people... it is right and necessary, I love holidays.  

Well, when I finish the semester,  I generally  I travel to my grandmother's house in the south of Chile, and I stay there for one month or more if I can. It's a very beautiful country near Carahue, a small town in La Araucanía region. The  Imperial river flows  along one side whereas on the other you can see the Coastal Mountain. All the area has plants and trees; the landscape has a powerful green color and you can see farmers working on the hillside. It's so quiet and peaceful. If you can going there sometime (in your life), you will understand what I mean. I really like that place; it's so nice!

Carahue is a good place but I want to visit any other places in Chile and the rest of the world (alone or with few group of people). I am a young man and I can support unfavourable situations (I think :o), it is fun and a real experience of life that can teach me a lot.

And what about you? 

Post 1: A country I'd like to visit

Hi bloggers, I´ve always wanted to travel around the world, it idea motivate me so much. I want to travel and know different places, countries and know landscapes and people of the other cultures. Food, people, colors, animals, cultures and many other interesting things are very exciting for me.

If I have the chance of travelling, I think that Bhutan ("Kingdom of Bhutan") would be a special country to visit. It is a small country in the Eastern Himalayas in South Asia. It´s very quiet and peaceful place. The bhutaneses, people that live in Buthan, are friendly and humble people. Bhutan population is so small, only has 770.000 people!!! State religion is Buddhism but many people are followers of Hinduism. Their economy isn´t based on GDP (or PIB in spanish), they have their own economy index, it´s "Gross National Happiness" (GNH) a holistic concept.

Bhutan have a lot of biodiversity and  according to the Swiss-based International Union for Conservation of Nature (UICN), Bhutan is viewed as a model for proactive conservation initiatives. The country have forest, mountains (Himalayas) and many national parks, reserves or protected areas... I´ve seen some pictures and I think that it´s a great place to visit ;).

Welcome to my blog friends!

Hello bloggers, I'm back again, but this time I'm writing from B1+ level! ...Yes, I passed the last semester. So you don't say me good bye.
Ok, let my introduce myself: My name is Benjamín Morales Lobos, I'm 22 years old, I study forestry at Universidad de Chile in Campus Antumapu (Sta. Rosa Avenue 11315).  I'm undergraduate, this is my second year in the career. I think that blog is a good tool for learning, and I developed some skills with my blog last semester.
 
You know that this blog is for English subject, so, I hope that you can read and comment my posts!

Post 10: Blog Experience

Oh bloggers, I have bad news... this is the last post that I will be writing. Yes, this is the end of my blog, it's time to say goodbye, but don't cry for me, I'm already dead... hehe it's a joke.

Ok, my english teacher said to me that I should make an evaluation about blog experience and of course, I have some many comments to do. Firstly, I think that this was a good learning strategy because to create and write a blog is very fun and the process to design your blog can be very stimulating. Blog can be a helpful tool to make different things. I like blog's interface :b.

Secondly, I feel that I learned some english vocabulary and I can do sentences more fluent. Writting about daily and personal topics is a good idea to motivate people. Making comments in others blogs is also a good idea, because sometimes someone can answer your comment and you can have a little conversation with this person, a little interaction or chat.

But!!! I have one constructive comment: All the posts should be written in house, as homework, because in classes there are not time to do it. Teacher could use this time to explain other things and students could write their posts with more calm.

Finally, from my point of view, blog should continue to be used as a tool to learn english in this course.

Well bloggers, never say goodbye ;)  

Post 9: Vacations

I love vacations, I need it because I study a lot during the year and when comes the end of semester I'm so tired, distracted and a little stressed. Vacations gives me power for the rest of the year, It's so great.

Well, when I finish the semester, generally I travel to my grandmother's house in the south of Chile, and I stay there one month or more if I can. It's a very beutiful country near to Carahue, a small town in La Araucanía region. Imperial river flows by one side and by the other side you can see the Coastal Mountain. All the area has plants and trees, landscape has a green powerful color and you can see farmers working on the hillside. It's so quiet and peaceful. If you can going there in sometime of your life, you will understand what I say. I really like this place, it's so nice! 

By other hand, in the last four years, I've experienced an anormal willingly to discover and explore others places that I don't know. I've traveled with my backpack, and very few things,  for some interesting landscapes. I enjoy to do it and I know that I will continue to doing.

And what about you? 

Post 8: A subject

Hi guys! I'm so tired, and you? This semester was very demanding for me because I had seven subjects (it was a voluntary decision) and only three of this subjects were interesting. The other four were so bored and I didn't pay much attention and effort to them. Sometimes, I was very tired and all subjects seemed to me a little annoying. I'm not a lazy man, I like to study different matters and learn about interesting things... at least I try to think it about myself, but I know that the decision to do many subjects was not the best :|

Well, it was not all bad during this semester. I had a really good subject, called "Principles of Social Ecology". It was an elective course and I didn't have so many classes but I really enjoyed it, because the main idea of this subject was the human-environment relationship with an anarchist (or at least an anti-establishment) approach. In classes, people spoke about domination between humans and also between human and nature, you know, humanity has not been the most condescending with environment. The principal thesis was that "in capitalism, man dominates nature and in the same way (under the same logic) dominate other humans", it produces abnormal relationships and over-exploitation of natural resources. I'm not anarchist, but I think that it's very interesting, I agree with this... I believe it . See you! :)
