Farewell

Hello everyone, today is the farewell, and we have very little to the review and I'm very happy with what I learned and that I may end up with this line in the university forever.
The last post of my blog!

I think the blog is a great tool for working languages​​, you go every week to practice their skills and acquires a practice to express, I remember that in English three, at first it was really bad and I had trouble making a post a hundred and fifty words, until now I can do much better, not as speaking tarzan.
I sometimes cost more complex issues, but then you know it's a good way to learn to speak and express themselves better in English.

I really do not think a lot of English, which communicate achievement striving, but English is a complicated issue that I always took me. so I think I will not continue their study at the moment, later prefieroestudiar otherwise practice with movies and music and get familiar with the language.

They are actually tasks I have to do is use my English, talk in my house with my brothers, watching movies with subtitles in English, listening to music in English, among others, I need more practice to handle me, because I feel that it is a little late to the grammar and theory, and at my age of twenty two years is better than practice, because the theory is more complicated.

I feel that the English recquiere of our time and dedication, and unfortunately, as we study a lot in college, we have no real time to devote to English. Happens to me that I have also a little scary and it makes little practice.
So I think as blog tools are very good. Thanks for everything profe, you are a great person and a very nice and understanding teacher.

My future job

I study Eduction at the Universidad de Chile, the major that I have take is Nursery Education, that is because I think the education is the best tool to change de world, all education is equally important, but in my case I prefer the childhood.
I think when I'm working and communicating with the boys and girls I feel good, I think I'm good in this and I enjoy.
When I'm a professional I want a work on a public establishment, that is because in think this nursery schools needs more help and good educators to change and improve the lives and opportunities for underprivileged children.
I think the atmosphere and the work environment must be very good, the duty is hard and very tiring, so we must all strive and have a good relationship.
And I think another important aspect to take a job is the proximity to my home, I love biking but is very difficult to move that far in the mornings before work.

Hello I'm Florencia Lastra, I'm a educator, a Nursery educator, I studied at Universidad de Chile.
I Think and I feel I'm good in this, when I think in my strengths think of charisma and connection with people, especially with children. Another strength is the theatre and the arts in general, that is because I love them as tool.

Money


I think money is not the most important thing in the world or something very important to me, when I am a professional I work in education and that here in Chile does not give much money. Money is important when something changes it. I live alone with my sister in the house, so that matters much care costs, I spend monthly:
Shave $ 15,000 pesos.

$ 10,000 in pills.
Charging $ 5,000 for the school pass.
Sometimes I have to spend some money on food and drinks, sometimes I buy clothes or household items.
I think I'm good at managing my money, I never had debt problems. When I buy something and do not ask me enough money loans or work until my goal.
First I do not like to be a millionaire, but if I were, I'd like to invest my money in education, especially in the artistic area of education, music theater and dance.
If I had to pawn something that would not, because I have no ownership of such value, the most valuable thing I have is a plasma TV and an iPod that could pledge to make money.
More than the money I think it's important to love, family, education and values​​, because you are not happy with material things, money can bring comfort and Experiences nice, but the real happiness depends on things that are not bought .
I believe that money is a role in the case of banknotes, a plastic card case and in the case of metal coins and none of those things are what we are useful in life, are useful when change them for something.

How green are you?

Today I’m going to tell you about a very important topic in the world because is about the environmental friendly, today the world is in danger, thus we need help, we can help with different tools.
I learned about the environmentally friendly because my mother is very mystic, she is a doctor of alternative medicine, like homeopathy and syntergetics and she is a tarotist. The mystic people are most conscious, for example my mom is very good to recycle, and my father (is mystic to), he is very good to use a bike.
In my home we, my sister Emilia, my brother Pedro and I are very good four recycling, in my mother’s home (she live in Coquimbo) is much better, because she and her boyfriend recycling most types of things, like tetrabrik, bottles and and newspaper, and papers in general.I Think I’m a little green because I love walk, my legs don’t have any problem, on the controlee my legs love the action and the activity. Walk is good but use a bike, and use my bike (is spectacular) in particular is amazing.I’m not supported in any eco-organization, because I prefer to take part of other types of causes, like educational o political causes.I want use only the bike, and never take a car and in very longs distances I use the bus only if is necessary.I think in Santiago are many cars.

Election Day


I am registered to vote since I have 18, I think it is very important that people can choose whether to register or not, that's why I do not like automatic enrollment, I think this system makes people have less freedom, thinking that there are people who for various reasons do not enroll or does not believe in the electoral register.
Related campaigns believe that today are very related to money and power, candidates and people do not remember is what matters, beyond the colors and the political parties, it is important for people to be represented for a candidate. Also I think the amount of money spent on an election campaign is ridiculous and not think about the environment and pollution.

The most important quality for a candidate is to represent the people, they can defend their demands, work according to them, not a political party and strengthen the population and living conditions of them.
I think the world currently working in very dirty politicians, very moved by money and power. The money and power in politics make people forget that the real work must begin to work for them rather than for the population, so I think it would not work in politics.
I think that the campaign must include the people, rather than the candidate how important is people and I would work on campaigns with fewer advertising expenses and take care of the environment.

First semester experience

The first semester of this year is the 3th semester in my university life I think that is a not difficult semester. I studied Curriculum 1, Elements of psycholinguistics, Development and learning, Research methodology 1, Social pedagogy and Imaginary child. 
Social pedagogy and Imaginary child are the subjects that I liked in this semester, I think Development and learning is a very important area in education, the teachers need to know about human an psychological development.
In my free time I did the theatre's artistic, I think that is very important to me because i love the theatre, and I think that is very useful tool to education.
I don't have any problems in the semester. But the closing marks was very stressful.
I liked most in this semester my vacations, I went to Peru whit my friends Gaby, Peluca, Shalo and Franco, we whent to Machu Picchu.

The Guardian article


Article: Drug-taking is less prevalent on campus than students think

Link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2012/oct/12/students-drug-taking-less-prevalent-on-campus?intcmp=ILCMUSTXT9384

Summary:
The survey shows that students are not experimenting with drugs.
45% of students have never tried any form of illegal drugs. Of students who have used drugs, 77% say they've used cannabis, 39% ecstasy and 24% cocaine.

One in six of the students who took part in the survey has been tried Ketamine, but 63% of students never try the animal tranquiliser.
61% of students won't try LSD, 57% won't try mephedrone, 52% won't try cocaine and amphetamines (both). Cannabis is the most consumed, only 3% of students surveyed said they wouldn't want to try.

The drug-taking start before the university life, four out of five students had already used illegal drugs, nearly half of them had tried drugs by the age of 16.

Internet is the most used way for getting information, the doctor our parents are not a way to get information and help abut the illegal drugs, 67% used Internet.

A five of students consumed legal drug like cigarettes and a quarter of students tried the most popular of illegal drugs, that is currently nitrous oxide, or laughing gas.

I chose this article because I think that is a very important topic because the addiction of the drugs is like a taboo in some places.
