My blogging experience

Hi followers!
Today I write about this experience, the experience of write weak to weak about a lot of topics.
First, I must to say that is a academic activity, this blog didn't create for my wish, however, I enjoy it because give me the change to express my feelings and my opinion.
Apart from I think I improve my english greatly. Improve mainly in the write and grammar, learning new word and expressions and neologism . Also, my capacity to reflect in other language: structure an argument, make a review, explain something. Indirectly, I improve my listening capacity: somedays ago, I was watch a serie in internet, but the translation wasn't available yet, so I watched in english and I understood all the dialogues. Was amazing! The holism exist! If you work the grammar and write, you listed also will improve. But, my speak skill haven't improved.
The pros of blogging: improve the skill of english; it's fun; easier than a class with book and notebook
Cons of blogging: I don't thing has cons per se, maybe the students used the hours to make other thing in the computers.

It's all for today.
See you in a next post!

The Lithium

Hello, hello... hello..
I'm not interesting  in minerals or Geology, but I think this is an interesting topic to write about today.
What is lithium? It is a white-silver metal that belongs to the alkani metal group of chemical elements. Why is lithium important? Because it is used to make batteries, but not any battery, the rechargeable ones. These batteries are the ones you use in your laptop and Mac book, in your car and in your cellphone, and also, these are used in eolian energy. Because of this, lithium has a wordwide prominence.
Chile has the greatest reserves in the world: 7,500 million of tonnes. The world total is 13 millons, so our country has more than half of it!!
Recently,  the Ministry of Minery, has called to tender for exploit the reserve of lithum, with a royalty of 7% of the profit. This tax must be higher (around 40%) and also set up an State company of mining lithum. Therefore, the State will win more money and, in my opinion, it may spend more in social policies and education.


Politicians should be cleverer, not nation-sellers and traitors.

A photograph

Hi reading of my blog! I hope you are fine..
I must choose a photograph, but I think it hard chose my favourite photograph to talk about it.
The photo I chose is called "Lame Dog and Thinker Young"


This photograph was took by a little friend called Karla.
Shows a boy and a dog looking his future and reflecting about it. What awaits them? Will his futures united or separated? What is the next step to take? Also shows friendship between human and the nature. We make believe about the proverb that say "the dog is the men's best friend" is true. The relationship between them are  : Their aura is complemented.  
This photograph was taken in January of 2011 when I and my friend wet to VicuƱa because one of my friends was his birthday and he live there. We celebrated the birthday in a beautiful house with a big garden.
To finish, I like this photo because is a beautiful photo: the colours are intense, the lighting are exact  the contrast is perfect. But the best, maybe, is the context of the photograph: technically was a godbye, because I and two friends more, wet to study in Santiago, breaking the group.

Something I love.


Hi everybody!
I speak about the best thing in this world: Pasta.
The pasta is a type of food make by dough whose basic ingredient is flour mixed with water, also you can add eggs, salt or other things. In the west culture, we follow the italian tradition and he flour that used is durum wheat, but in the east is more often the buckwheat flour or asian rice flour.
Exist pasta of many forms, wet or dry, and pasta stuff. But I prefer spaguetti. I don't why, because always has the same flavor... except if the pasta has a special ingredient, like spinach, carrot, or tomato. These give colors to the pasta, green, orange and red respectively. Also the colors pasta has vitamin B (excellent to the people love eat pasta).
Whould it be pasta without sauce? Tomato souce, mushroom souce, alfredo, whit souce, all is perfect with pasta.

Technology!

Hello!
We live in a globalizing society, therefore, we are sorrounded by technology. Cellphones everywhere, ipods everywhere, laptops everywhere... This is crazy.
Why a piece of plastic with metal can influence so much my life? I think it's a workaday, a trivial thing and only are tools.
However... What is my favourite piece of technology? I think are cellphones, because you can speak with people who are so far away and it's even better than phone because it's mobile and you can carry it to anywhere.
I got my first cellphone when a I have fourteen, but I lost it some moths later ):
I used my cell phone everyday, to call my family, friends of the University or (especially) my girlfriend.
Also, I like because some cellphones have reproductore of mp3, photografic camere, and some of the objects have internet. My cellphone has the first and the second funtion.
The like whitout cellphones will be more complicated, the news arrive slowy and the life more boring.

My present cellphone (more old than the picture).

Music!

Hi!
This post is about a band or singer that I like :B But I don`t know which I can choose, so I checked on my Lastfm.com's profile and I saw the list of the bands I listen more often. The first is Soda Stereo, second is Led Zeppelin and third is Los Bunkeres.
After I saw that, choosse Led Zeppelin. Why? Because is one of the greatest band of the rock´s history.
Led Zeppelin was a british band formed for four members: Robert Plant, the singer and songwritter; Jimmy Page, guitarrist and songwritter; John Paul Jhones, bass player, keyboardist and mandolinist; and Jhon Bonham, the powerfull drummer.
The type of music is basically rock, but combinated a lot of genres like folk, blues and a bit of metal.
I like this band because they were amazing. The lyrics are perfect, the guitar solo are of eulogy and the drummer and the bassit are incredibles.
Terriblely, the band was separated after that John Bohman dies due a alcohol poisoning.
Is hard chose my fovourite song, but my chose is Black Dog, because it has all of power of Led Zeppelin.

I hope you like it.

See you in other post :]
