transantiago

Oh, transantiago!!!
It was the obligatory theme in many reunions and family lunchs. I really think that transantiago is very different to the previus system called “yellows bus”, in many ways is better than the previous transport, like the pay systems and the buses, also the drivers are a lot nicer that the other drivers
The busses of transantiago are most cleaner that pre - transantiago system. When the new system started it was a really big change for the people that using the system, because we had to learn to a new system, with buses very slow and realy
uncomfortable. Now the systems works very well, because is a little more fast and now we are more acostumbrados.
I think that transantiago has pending a promise about the regulation of busses, the famoust GPS. Also I think that could be better if built new roads like santa rosa or avenida grecia.
I hope that this new systems achieves all the promises that the government made.

Italy, the motherland

The country that I dream to go is Italy, this is my dream because my grandfather is Italian, and he travelled to Chile when he was really young and he always dream with comeback to his land. When I was very young, he talked me about Italy and his natal town called Sarzana in the Spezia province.

My knowledge about Italy is that is a Latino country, there speaks Italian and in this country the people loves the pastas with napolitan salsas and the pizzas. There is a big country with a very beautiful coast with the Mediterranean Sea.

When I finally travel to Italy in the future I expect to go to the natal town of my grandfather to see them and I hope to know the places and castles that he talked about. After that, I would like to know different cities of Italy like Rome, Milan, Florence and Venetia.

I would like to visit this country for his beautiful history and would love the possibility to study or live in Italy or another country near like Spain or France

First Term : Good and Bad points

This term I learnt about interesting things, and I had a very important teacher, his name is Manuel Antonio Garreton he is a teacher in my career and he is a sociologist recognized in Chile and around Latin America. With him I studied Theory 5, which is a subject dedicated to sociological theory about Latin America. Also I have others subject such as Culture Sociology, Education Sociology and public policy.

In the first term I didn’t have a lot of time to do sports, I went to the gym in March and April, but then I didn’t have any more time to go. In my free time I dedicated to see movies and I went four or five times to the theatre in Catholic University Theatre. I went to several party’s with my friends, a lot of birthday’s celebrations.

This first term I had a few challenges, because I started to work babysitting children’s, so I studied a lot in my free time.

The past term I knew that my brother is going to USA to study a magister, so I was very happy and price for him.
