Blog 10: Evaluation of Blog experience

Hello everyone! Today is the last blog of the semester and is the moment to write about the experience and the learned skills.

In this year thanks to blogs I think I learned many more words and to improve my reading comprehension, but one of the things more important is that thanks to blog I can comunicate many personal aspects with my classmates and friends.
I never in my life use a blog and I think was a good experience learn English in another way (for example: in the school never use other things for learn English except listenings and guides).

Important part to learn English is meet many words, many times a word gives meaning to a text and in this semester I learnt more words also I hope learn more English specially speak and pronounce better.

Maybe it would be interesting that write in the blogs about actual topics for example news and problems in the world and also propose a topic. In this sense the blog about art it was my favorite. I like the blog methodology, maybe I could include links with exercises or keywords or the forms would be good.
 

Blog Nº7: Carrer related Web site

Today I gonna a write about the Web site that I mainly use when I start a job or when I need seach a information, is a Web site very popular with a lot of articles, links, news and sections. I personal believe is a good option for start a job, because delivers a first vision about a topic.

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Portada

These are the section that has the Web site:

1)Title page: In this part, the web site include the languages (53 languages!!), prominent article (about a interesting fact of history or cultural things), ephemeris and news.

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Art%C3%ADculos_destacados

2)Wikipedia Commons: This part is about the images, includes a lot of type of images, photographies and multimedia articles, has interesting images, in good formats and qualities especially paintings, drawings and maps

 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Paintings

3)Present: on the cover is the news section, it is interesting because it allows you to inform about events that are happening, deaths and celebration in the world.

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Actualidad

4)When seach an article for example: 

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barroco

it's great to be able to review the "see also" "references" "bibliography" "book links" at the end of the article, help to complement the investigation.

 5)Art section: Is very complete and includes different types of art.

  https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Arte

 In general I like encyclopedias, especially when they are very complete, they are always a good starting point to look for information, the bad thing about wikipedia is that sometimes people edit information badly and it is also a simple option to get information.

Blog Nº 5: A photograh you like

One of the photographs that I like most was part of a project that I did last year. I took it to a friend in her house, she is a transsexual and started her process last year. This photo is important for me because during that time we shared a lot, in his house he attended a store while his family lived in Antofagasta. We spent the afternoon watching movies, series or talking. This year she went to live north and I really miss her a lot, during the summer I went to see her and it was very exciting now I hope to see her in February.

We are friends from school and accompanying her in this process was very important for me. This photograph is taken with an analog camera and with a photographic film. It was a surprise when I saw this picture because it showed her transition at a time when she was very lonely. I always help in other pictures that I take, but without a doubt this is the one I did best.

Blog Nº6 - Favourite Artist

There are many artists that I find interesting. Of all you can always take references and inspiration, but one of the most I like is a Spanish photographer named Antoni Catany or Toni Catany. He is a photographer of the eighties, always learning by magazines, in a period of censorship in Spain and where photography did not exist in the Fine Arts schools.
His work includes still lifes, nudes and landscapes, common topics in photography and art, but he uses old techniques of photography, which I find very interesting.
"Mare Nostrum" is a series of photographs that he take in the Mediterranean sea, landscapes of ruins, cities and islands, beautiful landscapes to show an escape from the dictatorship of Spain. Toni died in 2013, but has won many awards.
For my birthday my boyfriend gave me a book by Toni Catany, a very beautiful book which always inspires me, also includes a travel log and his comments on the landscapes.

Blog N·4 - Happines

Happiness for my is the best feeling, It's a big set of things for example: peace, tranquility or affection. A lot of people belive happiness is the money, the power or material things. This things are important but no the most important in the life. When the people really feel happy think in love and in the future, does not changes dreams for plans.
The things that make me happy are: to be studying, know new people, make friends, to be an artist and many many other things wow! It's good think such things. Other thing that make me happy is help to my friends and share the good and bad in simple words always be yourself. I demonstrate the happiness with a smile or with a gift, but also share things and share with my family and ask for the other.
In my life the best happiest experience when born my sister in 2007 and when travel to north of Chile in the last summer. This experiences have been more important for me and my family. I collaborate with others' happiness when say: thank you and sorry. This words change people's moods.

Blog N3 - My favourite piece of technology

When I enter the University and learned to use it, the camera is my favorite piece of technology. At first I always used small digital cameras or the cell phone to take photos, go by santiago and take photos. With the analog camera I have learned much more about photography, it is much slower and the process in the laboratory is very interesting.
  It is not a very technological object, my camera is from the 80's. When I bought it I did not know how to use it not did I know how to put the photographic film, but I learned a little bit. The Catalina helped me learn because she even uses analog camera. It is useful in my works in the University, whenever I go to a new place I like to take photos.
Sometimes it is difficult to buy photorealistic films, chemicals and the laboratory process is running out of time but personally I think it helps to learn more about photography.

Blog N·2 -

Hello!
When I was a child I always wanted to study many things, I liked the space a lot and I wanted to be a astronomer, when I grew up I discovered that I had to study a lot of mathematics and I was not good at it.  I really like the history and geography, the flags and the capitals of the countries, I liked to draw flags and make maps, I still know many capitals, but I think you can not study that.

When a study in high school, I always enjoyed reading and studing XD and I started to like the history a lot, I liked the old nations very much, see documents and investigate, I still like it very much. I wanted to study archeology and that was one of my options until the day of applying to the University. I also liked art, and I always liked to draw and to take pictures. 

One of my dreams is be a great phographer artist and continue to study later other things.
