Elki

Today I want to show you a picture taken by a friend of me, he's name is Juan, but we usually call him"Juanothe". He's a nice photographer, and he always amazes us with something new.
This picture was taken last winter at the Elki Valley, where we were camping with our scout group.
It plays with the contrast between light and darkness, showing the Andes mountain range covered with some snow, the moon, some clouds and a beautiful sky.
I like this photograph for several reasons. One of them is that it reminds me that camp and every activity we did, my friends and all those moments that we save in our memories. I also remember the peace of that place, there wasn't any noise, all it was completely quiet. At night you could see the stars shining on the sky and the queen moon among them.
When I look this pic I want to climb those mountains feeling the cold wind blowing to my face and a kind of peaceful freedom that flies over that magical sky.

Animals and pets

My first pet was a rabbit, he´s name was Tambor. I remember that I was four years old when we got him. He was really cute, but although he was a rabbit, I think he was really crazy, because  he used to bite the phone wires and do dangerous things ajaja. Now I don't have any pet, but I would like to have a dog, at home in Coquimbo of course, because now I'm living in an apartment, and I think it's cruel to live in a place without green areas even for a human, so it should be worse for a pet.

I don't like zoos because I think that we don't have any right to shut them up in a prison. Some people say that it's a way to protect some endangered species, but I think that we are not doing a favor to them.

Well, I have had a good relationship with animals until now, I have never been bitten by a dog or things like that but it should be painful xd.

If I could be an animal, I would be a panther, because they're free and they also climb, run and do activities that I would enjoy. ajaja

Well, that was all for today

Best regards to your pets!

My favourite piece of technology

I don't have something like a "favourite piece of technology", and I don't really mind having one, but today I supposed to talk about my favourite technological thing. So, let's talk about my computer.
My family and me had our first computer around twelve years ago. It was something new and weird for me, because it was a box in which you could look for information, play games and thousands of things just with typing words. Nevertheless, It made no difference to me.
Well, my current computer is a laptop, and I got it two years ago. I use it to look for information, talk with friends, see movies, listen to music, etc. But actually not very often, because I'm not very technological, and also because the thing that a computer needs to be useful is internet, and nowadays I don't have it.
I like it because I think that's useful for the University, and also because I'm far away from home, and with the computer I can talk with people in Coquimbo.
But as I said before, I don't love it, and my life without it would be the same as now. The only difficult thing would be doing some tasks or investigation works for the University, but I would find another way to keep all in order.

Life at the University

Well, this is my first year at the University, and bacause of that we couldn´t choose our own subjects. This semester I am doing Anthropology , Archaeology, Philosophy, History, Methodology, Biology and English.
One of my favorite subjects is History, because we are learning much about the latinoamerican society, but with an interesting point of view. Actually, I like most of the subjects, but sometimes I think that we have much to learn and there is no time to do something else.
I hope I can pass everything, because I really want to become an anthropologyst and I don´t want to throw away this opportunity
I can´t take extracurricular activities this semester, because as I told before, we can´t choose the things we want to do, maybe because we shouldn´t take too many things or I don´t really now why ajaja.
I don´t have any other activity here, because I don´t want to be under a high preassure, at least for now.
I have to go, see you later!

About a Girl

Hi!
I´m Natalia, and this is my first post, so I would like to talk a little bit of my life.
I was born in 1994, in the city of Coquimbo, where I grew up also. I have a sister, who is 18, and a brother who is 1 year old. As you can see, I´m the oldest of us. My Parents´s names are Patricia ans José.
My sister and I went to a School named "Santa María de Belén", there were lots of nice people, and I made several good friends.
Now I´m studying anthropology at the Universidad de Chile, so I had to move to Santiago. This is my first year and it looks interesting.
Well, in my free time I like to play drums, read and listen to music. I´m also Scout, and I think that that´s one of my favorite activities, because we are always learning new things.
Well, that´s what I have to say for now, I think I have to go.
Take care!
Bye
