Post 10 (week 15) Evaluation of your Blogging Experience

This time I will talk about my experience in my blog. Since I went to school, the only thing that I learned in English were words and recognize them in a text, but never write something by myself and create something that has coherence and cohesion. I think that a part of learning to communicate in this language is that we be able to create something from our own experiences.

I have never used “Blogger”, it is a very complete and easy editing platform. I can use a lot of tools and colors, making it a great way to communicate without losing the formality of a class.

I think that through this experience I could change my writing skills. Thanks to this activity, gradually I could collect my thoughts and relate what I have learned in class. On the other hand, I could use new forms of expression that allowed enrich my vocabulary.

Since my point of view, my weakest point is not English writing. The idea of ​​blogs is excellent for forms of written communication skills, but only limited to that. What I mean is that we should further strengthen activities on “listening” and “speaking” in English, as expressed using these forms is more complex. Perhaps this could be supplemented with more activities "lisening" without being evaluated.

Post 9 (week 14) >> Themed/Free post 4 "FOUCh"

In this post I speak about my faculty. This is a very important space for me, because I spend most of the time on it. For all of us this space represents the first approach to our future employment.
This space has direct access to the Faculty of chemistry and is one block from the Faculty of medicine. Sometimes I've had classes in these areas. As for the other careers that do not directly belong to the area of health, our faculty is too remote.


Our faculty has a well-stocked library, with books of different area of knowledge applied to dentistry. On the other hand, the rooms are very cosy, they are well structured according to the number of students expected.


The dental clinic, although it has an excellent implementation, is a small space which ensures the privacy of the patient. During the clinical examination we must get useful information to reach a proper diagnosis, which may be interfered by this defect. In our career as a dentist will not only see mouths, if not people with different life histories.


Changes that I would make in the faculty are enlarge the green areas. In a place full of high frequency noise and a smell of eugenol intense, we need to clear us. For that we need fresh spaces, that only fully provided by nature. This would greatly reduce the stress.

Post 7 (week 11) >> Childhood Series.

On this occasion, I will talk about series from my childhood that I used to see. In my case, I saw many series that marked my childhood, but only one was my favorite: “El chavo del 8”


I started to see her when I was 6 years old. The program deals with the experiences of a group of people living in a Mexican neighborhood where its protagonist, el Chavo, carry out mischief along with his friends that cause misunderstandings and arguments between the same neighbors, always in a comic tone. This series was performed by adults, even the children characters. Despite this, was achieved to maintain innocence intact. What I liked most in this series was the distinctive of each of his characters, which represented different realities in a very funny way. Along with this, this series had a family touch, both so parents and children were laughing together.


I feel that this series represent much my childhood. Games, pranks and laughs were very similar to the experiences that I lived with my friends from childhood. Perhaps that is the reason why I liked more than other series.


Finally, the only series I see is "the walking dead" and I really like.

Post 7 (week 11) >> Carrer-Related Website OR An Expert on your Field

Hello partners!

Today, online we have much information circulating about different themes. Much of this comes from sources of dubious origin, research not supported by any institution.


The web site that I chose to speak on this occasion is SciELO. It consists of a database with several magazines, articles and reports about medical clinical, epidemiology and social sciences. It is an initiative created by FAPESP and BIREME and according to the site, "it aims to develop a common methodology for the preparation, storage, dissemination and evaluation of scientific literature in electronic format". Today, it boasts the participation of thirteen Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries, one of this is Chile.


The structure is quite simple. Account with a search engine by "Keys words", topic, author, in addition to being able to choose the country of origin of the article.


I consult this page constantly, whenever I need to organize any oral presentation or supplement my study with fresh information. I really love it, it is quite reliable because it has different mechanisms of evaluation of its publications and constantly new papers are. On the other hand, this web site having Chilean publications, I think it is a great contribution to encourage research in our country. I invite you to visit this excellent site.

Post 6 (week 10) >> Themed/Free post 2 "My favourite Movie"

Hello everybody!

One of my favorite pastimes is watching movies. On the contrary, the first film I saw is called "Stuart Little ", I liked very much, in fact every time that the memory associate it to my childhood with my family. I've seen different types of movies: Drama, action, science fiction, comedy, but which I really love are horror films. I like the feeling of suspense and not knowing what is what will happen to the protagonist.

The film that I liked most is "Sinister", a supernatural horror film released in October 2012, achieving the rapturous applause from the audience in general, mainly in the United States. Many film critics catalogued it like "a truly terrifying movie" and I agree with them.

This film shows a writer called Ethan Hawke who travels with his family around the country to investigate gruesome murders that he turns into books. Once they are moved to a house where another family in suspicious circumstances was murdered, they discover home videos revealing horrible tracks beyond which caused the original tragedy.

Post 4 (week 6) Themed/Free Post 1

"The music is the food for the soul"

Since my point of view, music is an important part of humanity. Throughout life, the people have to had to overcome multiple obstacles, which made us different reactions in our emotions: joy, pain, impotence, tranquility, among others. This is how we know that we are not able to accumulate so much without expressing it in some way, the music being the most effective.

Personally I hear various kind of music, but the ones I prefer are the rock, metal, and hip hop. Each of these styles is a different form of expression but using the sound as a medium. I listen every time and places; I feel that these styles contain part of me and heard since I was a child.

The more I prefer bands that are System of a Down , Metallica , Pearl Jam and Nirvana. The first arose around 2000 and their songs are of a complex style classify, having very poetic lyrics with meanings that the same people are giving them , Perl Jam and Nirvana emerged in the 90s being one of the best representatives the thought of his time and Metallica that is a classic that they make to concerts today.

As for concerts, I've never been to one, the days come not accommodate me and in the case of nirvana, the band don´t exist. 

Expectations for a New Semester

This semester will be very relaxing for me. I will only have 5 subjects that I could not take the full program. Although, this period will be very interesting because I dedicate mainly to see the psychological needs of the patient and the community mainly. On the other hand, I will have Subjects of last year which will be daunting.

In my extracurricular activities, I am do taekwondo. This discipline has allowed me to learn self-defense techniques useful in case of being in dangerous situations and I can share with partners who did not previously know.

Other activities I do are to go to the gym at the University. Not like a lot of people, but personally it has allowed me to take away my stress and studying with less anxiety.

This year I have high expectations. Academically, I pretend understand the patient like a full and a complex body, managing to unite biological, social and sociological in one being. The teachers have much motivated us to study this area and to see people from different points of view.
