good byeeeeeee
Being sincere, i didn't like to come to English that much. I think it doesn't reach the results that it shod reach, in terms of the improvement of each student about the manage of the language. Also, the fact that it is obligatory, makes the students, and myself, think that it is tedious and boring. In many times I was in the class of English thinking about what I could be doing in that moment. I am really happy to be finishing it.
I think that the class of English could be more interesting if the teacher teach us how to use the language in benefit to our profession or career. Because thats the way we are going to use English in our future. An I think thats why nowadays almost every career in all the universities have English in their academic courses, to use it in their future, to be part of these globalist world.
I have always think that this university isn't ready to give a course of English, I am not talking about the teachers, I have nothing to say about them, they are good people, but these was all bad organized. We started the course like two month after we started the semester, I was already in another CFG, and I had to leave it because I wa taking these course too, but they give us the days of English too late, so I had to reorganize my timetable.
The use of the blog was a good thing after all. I think that I practice a little bit about my writing, but I sometimes felt very uncomfortable talking always about my self, I am not used to it. I need to improve my speaking of English, because I don't know hoy to communicate very well, I have it all in my mind but when it has to come out it cant. Also I have to improve my writing, there are a lot of words that I don't know how to say in English, or I write them but I write them wrong, I have the same two problems in Spanish by the way. I think the best way to learn a language is to be living in a city where nobody talks your language, so yo have no alternative.
I really don't use much my English, one day a north American man come up to me and ask me for some directions, an I think I helped him.

Money
I think money its no so important for me in this moment, but it is just because I still live under the roof of my parents. I am not a big spender, I just buy the necessary, what its not so much because I don't have to buy my own food or to pay the rent. Mostly I spend my money in materials and tools to work with. This is not a cheep career so each time I can I try to reuse materials I found in the street, from the garbage. Also when I propose myself to save money its not a big deal for me. I keep it all in a box and never open it again.If I were a millionaire I, in the first place, would help my mom with all the expenses of the house and the studies for my brothers and me. And then I would go traveling around the world, to know all the places that I would never have the possibility to go like Mexico, the jungle of Sudamerica,China and el Tibet, depending of course how millionaire would ill be. Also I would like to keep studding other things besides art, like botany and ornithology, and besides all that ill save money for the future.
If I have to pawn any of my belongings I think the only object that I own that could give me some money its my computer I really don't have too much valuable things.

I think that I learned about sustainability in my house, with my mom, but I am not sure. Anyway the green trend have been appearing in the means of communication in these decades, so its impossible not to hear about it. In fact the biggest industries are taking advantage of these trend and are incorporating the terms of recycle to convert their image, but in the essence they are still the same.Like the green spot in Jumbo, where you can leave your plastic bags, your bottles or your tetrapak. It is really very small and its impossible that it can contain all the waste that the supermarket leaves. The same happens with the reusable bags, and the ones that are "biodegradable". There is something beyond only recycling, it is about changing the way we are living.
In my house we collect all the organic waste in a can, and once a week I leave it to a box in our neighborhood where we have worms so they can made humus. Since we do that the waste of my house has been reduced to a half of what it was before. Also I try to reuse the maximum of the stuff we use to trow up, but the most important thing is to reduce the quantity of stuff we buy that we don't need. Also I harvest some vegetables from an orchard we have here in the park of the university, so there we are reducing the carbon footprint of all the contamination that the agriculture are generating there days, its is a very small contribution but it have change my vision of what I am eating every day.
I have a bike and i use it around my neighborhood or when I have to go to the center of the city,but I don't use it every day because my house is very far of where I study, and I don't have the resistance so I use the transantiago. But i Think Santiago needs more cycling culture, to respect the cyclist and motivate people to use their bikes, for example with more cycle paths, not just for riding, but for a serious mobilization in all the city.
