                  Evaluation of my Blogging experience


In the first class of English 3 I was confused about the use of Blogs as a kind of evaluation, I used to writing typical controls but when I write the first post I enjoyed it and from that post, seems like I am “waiting” for a new post every Tuesday.
    I used to read the post of different fashion’s bloggers and fitness bloggers, I though it was easy, something like “think about something and write it”. But now I know how wrong I was. To write a post (a good post) you have to think about a topic, develop it, divide it and sort it hierarchically ( to give a sense).
  I think that the blog has helped me a lot, I try every week to do a good post because I really like it. I have learned to write in an orderly way, with coherence and cohesion, I have learned new words too. Ok, not so NEW, but very daily’s words that I didn’t know. Another important thing that I have learned along this process is that there are words that change according to their sense, For example, Study and STUDIO.
   For the future I would like to added more post, but of course It would be unfair for the rest of the classmate, I would like to be a real blogger for this class ,I follow a lot of them and I like it so much!, I don’t want to everyone of the class becomes in a fashion blogger, of course NO. I mean, each choose one style and each post would be from that view (always remembering our career). Yes, I know that this is so impossible because it requires a lot of time.

Finally, I would like to write more about my career, for example, I want to be a sport’s journalism so I would like to write from that point of view, I want to work in a soccer’s channel but it is not the only sport in the world, there are others like “tennis”, “basketball”, “baseball”, among others.

My perspective of the strike



       Since I was fourteen until the seventeen years old I though that a “strike” was just for vacations and one or two times at week, students went to broke and burn everything just for fun, because that’s what T.V shows us. But when I was 18 years old (the past year) I realized that this has a reason, an objective.
     We can see and listen to everybody talking about the “facilities for study” that the government gives us, but they don’t even mention the effort that it required. Nowadays the T.V only shows us the “gratuity”, but hey! It doesn’t mention that the government takes off some scholarship, grant (for example, bicentenary’s grant) and uses that money to fund the famous gratuity.
     Besides, the strikes are not vacations, I mean, there are a lot of activities that the students organize and the most of them are really committed to the cause. In addition, a student’s mobilization required a lot of time and an amazing organization.
   In general,the most important requirements of the “higher education’s reformare project“ are “universal gratuity”, “No more CAE”, “assurance of quality’s system”, “new acces's system and the end of the PSU”, among others.

  Now we have the other side of the coin, because the real level of allegiance to the strike is not the 100%, a large proportion of students just travel to their native cities, another part ain't agree to lose classes (curiosly, some of them are studying for free) and just a small part of the total of students is really committed to the cause.

                                   My favorite subject


Resultado de imagen para english classAt the start of this year, I was too nervius because I didn’t knew what I would face this semester. Yes, I was scared but a small voice inside of me said “ Don’t worry, you can do it”.
I listened that voice and Follow my way and now I can say that I  don’t regret about it, it (the voice) was right. The subject that I love the most is English III (really). I thought it was just like another English class, you know, something like “Ok students, write this on your notebook and memorize”. NO! in this class I could make myself the best question ever, Why am I doing this?.
It was only the start of all, this subject is different about all the other subject, for example, we can debate and extress our opinions and points of view about any topic. It’s not a typical class where you only listen the teacher, because he and only he has the reason. Here we can talk about really important topics.
In this subject I have learned so many thing about pronunciation and grammar. For example, all my life I had been wrong about the pronunciation of “SOCCER” until the teacher told me.
Another thing that I learned is the vocabulary related to  journalism, that’s really important for me and my future in this.

Finally and added to all of the reasons I gave because of why I like and prefer this subject and not other is that we can chose the topics of presentations, for example Soccer, I started this carrer thinking about it but I couldn’t because all (or almost all) was about politics and democracy. It is an incentive to do it and make it well, my mom always says “If you like it, you’ll give you all on it”.

-Try to use real nappies

- Always have the recycling out by 7 a.m (Make sure you don’t miss your collection).
