The Cinema

I love the seventh art and there are many movies that I like. My brother loves the movie and when I was a little girl, we saw films together. I love go to the cinema and always go with my friends. However I also rent films for see it in my house with my family. The kinds of film that I most like are the films of the decade 80 as Flash dance, Ghost, Dirty dance, Footloose.
However, one of my favourites films is Men on Fire. This movie is released in the 2004 and addresses the topic of kidnapping. Denzel Washington (John Creasy), Hannah Dakota Fanning (Lupita) and Marc Anthony (Lupita's father) are the main actors.

The film is developed in the city of Mexico, a city that has seen whips by a large number of kidnappings. For this situation, the Ramos family decides to hire a bodyguard for his daughter, Lupita. So appears on the scene, John Creasy, who takes the job of Lupita's bodyguard. Arises a beautiful friendship between Lupita and Creasy. Lupita help to Creasy to overcome various conflicts of his past.

The conflict of the film arises when Lupita is kidnapped. Crasy promises to avenge the kidnapping of Lupita and after a while Creasy find out Lupita's father is involved in the kidnapping of his daughter and... Well, I will not tell the end of the movie because I hope to be seen.
I’ve seen this film many times because I love this movie for its plot and the way in which the actors play their roles. The topic of kidnapping is very well illustrated and the outcome of the movie is spectacular, so I invite you to see it! Is a spectacular film!

Man on Fire!

WHAT TO DO / WHERE TO GO IN SANTIAGO

I always I've lived in Santiago, particularly in San Bernardo commune and the true is that I know a little more about touristic places in my commune, but I have some favorite places in Santiago that I will describe in this opportunity. I think a tourist in Santiago city must know the San Francisco church located on the side of Alameda and also must know the San Francisco museum located on said of this church with the same name. These two places are really beautiful and have a history that really the tourist must know. Other place that a tourist must know is the Paris- London neighborhood located near of San Francisco church. This neighborhood is conformed for two streets: Paris and London and in this street there many houses of colonial style, is a nice place! Other important tourist place is the government palace, La Moneda is a public place and of transit free. Is a historic place and could be a interesting place to know and know more about Chile history.

Finally I will speak about one activity that taking place in San Bernardo, The national and international festival of folklore. This activity is realized in February for one week. There is a big stage with many artist and groups, nationals and internationals, with different shows, are very funny and very beautiful. I think that a tourist must go to this activity because of this form, he could know more about Chilean traditions. 
Well, I think these activities are some important activities for a tourist in Santiago.

Music

Hi everyone!
In this ocation I will tell you about the kind of music that I like.  
My musical preferences are diferent to young people of this time because I like the music of the 80's and 90's. I love this kind of the music and when I listen to it, it makes me feel  free!  I would like bakc the time for to have lived at that time and to have enjoyed this music "in situ" jaja
I love Classic rock, latin rock and the caracteristic music electronic of the year 90. Some bands that I like are Depeche Mode, Erassure, Roxette, The Comunards, Toto, Dj Bobo, La Bouche, Corona, and latin groups as Soda Stereo, Los enanitos verdes, Los fabulosos Cadilacs and many more. However, my favourite band is Depeche Mode. I like the music of de 80's and 90's. My favourite band is Depeche Mode.
They are a british band and the kind of music they play is electronic. Depeche Mode was founded in 1980 by Vince Clarke and Andrew Fletcher and some time after joined to the band Martin Gore and David Gahan but for some problems Vince left the band
Depeche Mode have 12 albums and I’ve bought many of their  CDs and my favourite is "Violator" and my favourite song is The Policy of Truth. The band have a long history and are very known around the world. I like Depeche Mode because I think their music is fantastic, the letters of the songs are very interesting. My brother is a Depeche's fans and I think he is to blame of my obsession for this band and for my musical preferences in general.
If you do not know about this kind of music, you should listen some bands and immediately you'll be a fan!

country I would like to visit

One of my dreams is to travel around the World and one of the countries that I would love to meet is Greece for several reasons: its history, its culture, mysticism and I would love to meet every one of the important and beautiful places I've only seen in books and television documentaries, such as the ancient sacred temples, the Parthenon and Erechtheion. The architecture of their constructions is really beautiful and know it would be fantastic!
I do not know much about Greece and the things that I know of this country is because I've read in some magazines and I've seen in some TV documentaries, but the magic that surrounds this country is common knowledge.
If I've the opportunity to be in Greece, I would travel to every tourist places taking photos and collecting postcards.
Greece is a very nice country, but I think that I not would study there, because I think it would cost me to adapt to this culture so different and also i would cost learn the language. However, as a tourist destination, is totally recommended.
I hope someday to know Greece and many other countries worldwide

First Term: Good and bad points.‏

Hello everyone!

During the first term of this year, in my carrer I had courses of diferents psychology’s areas as legal psychology, educational psychology, laboral psychology, comunitary psychology and clinical psychology. In each course I learned things very importants about the development of this areas in the theoric plane and the laboral plane. Of all that I've seen, the area of psychology that most i like is legal psychology and the next term I will continue taking courses about this area.
During this term I met very important people in the area of legal psychology as Elias Escaff. He has worked for over 30 years in matters relating to social research, legal psychology and victimology.Professionally, he worked from 1971 to 2003 in the investigative Police of Chile, where he crated the first victimology center of the country, the Center for Assistance to Victims of Sexual Assault (CAVAS), In that role, he selected and formed interdisciplinary teams responsible for the comprehensive care of victims and designs intervention strategies for the treatment of those affected by sexual crimes.
The challenge most difficult the first semester was the large number of texts that I had that read for each subject. Some text more difficult than others, but always ended up reading everything.
When i had free time and i not had that read a text by some test, I practiced volleyball with my friends in a park  that is near of my house  and some times I went to visit my family in Buin.

Well, see you next class!... 
bye!
