Post 3: Let's talk about the pandemic



Due to the coronavirus, many people are struggling with many different problems, problems like the economic crisis, which is affecting common people and big enterprises, causing serious complications for almost everybody, increasing the inequity of our country and in most of the world. 

There are also difficulties in terms of mental health because the world situation causes anxiety and fear, especially in those people that live alone or in older persons.

Also, teleworking and online classes have not been the best experience for many of us, it is well known that those new kinds of work or study made life more difficult, many people now have problems with organization, sleeping habits, and with their yield in work/classes themselves.

Today people had to change most of their lives, the way that we used to work, study, share with others, get out to the street, everything now is completely different. The vast majority of us is now living more connected to the internet and technologies than with the "real" experiences per sé.

I think that my life after the pandemic is going to be a slow process of trying to get back to normality, with some activities that would keep being online, some habits that would change and others would maintain like wearing a mask perhaps. I believe that is going to be a weird and crazy time because never in my life I have suffered something so big and for so long like this pandemic!

Post 6: Postgraduate Studies

Well, the postgraduate course that I would like to take, or at least the first one that I would like to take it would be the "Master of Archaeology", the reasons to take it are mainly three. First, this Master is available at the university where I am studying right now (University of Chile). The second one is that I know that with this kind of Master, I would choose something to specialize in, but I will have a lot of different options to choose from.  The third one is the working aspect, I know for sure that doing a postgraduate course will help me to get a better job and to have more options of job and better salary too! In terms of the subjects, I still can not say anything, I am just in the second year of my career and I just do not know in what area I would like to specialize in, I believe that is the most important factor to choose the kind of subjects I would like to study in a Master, so, if I do not know in what I want to specialize I have no idea of the subjects. I...

England, the place for me

Since I was a little boy, I accidentally began to fell in love with England, the very first sign was my love for " The Beatles ", it was the first time that I felt so much passion for a musical group and for music in general, there was something hypnotizing in them which still today I can't explain, but what remains in me was the knowledge about all his history, history in which England is obviously an important part, and is because of that I started to dream about going to that country. But my path to the British culture didn't stop there, as a kid I also consume some important tv shows from that country, shows such as " Doctor Who ", which was probably the very first tv show I obsessed with. Later on, I remember I discovered " Mr Bean ", and " Sherlock" (the BBC series) which were very influential programs for me because they marked me and forged a big part of my personality, such as my kind of humour, or my perceptive and sceptical way...

Post 8: English Language Challenges

Well, yet I am in my second year of university, but this was my very first English course at university. I have to admit that before starting the classes I was nervous because during school I was a good English student, but never the best, so, I had no idea of how it would be taking English classes at university. Lucky for me, I realized very quickly that I was at the ideal level of English for me because during classes I felt that it was not so hard, but not so easy either, it was a nice ambient to improve my English level but not dying in the meantime. About the blogs, I would say that they were an interesting space to learn English, during school in most of my classes we had to do dialogues, and I know that talk to another person is a good way of learning, but blogs are a good way too, I mean, to talk a language is not enough if you are thinking of going to another country to study something, because there you will have to talk, read, and write. So, I believe that blogs were an exce...
