POST 2: the best concert

Imagen
 Hi everyone! In my life I’ve gone to three concerts, but if someone ask me about the best, it was One Direction’s concert, it was held at Estadio Nacional in 2014. At that time I was a big fan of the boy band of the year, and in 2013 my dad gave me the ticket for my birthday. I waited almost a year for the concert and the day finally came. I’m from Arica so I had to travel to Santiago, my sister was living here so I stayed in her apartment, she went to the concert too, she wasn’t a big fan, but she had to take care of me hahaha. My best friend at that time went too, we were so close and “directioners” (that’s the name of de fan club). We bought the same ticket location “Andes”, it’s in the side of the stage. That day I woke up at 7 am because we had to get there very early to have a great seat, we waited about 3 hour outside the stadium, and then the doors opened and let us in, I really enjoyed very much that concert. Now I’m not a fan of all the members of 1D but I remember that ...

POST 1: a country I would like to visit

Imagen
Hi everyone! it’s been a long time since I wrote for the last time in this blog, but i’m back! and today I’m going to talk about a country I would like to visit.  In a couple of years I would like to visit Europe, actually i’m saving money for this but if I had enough money I would love to go to Japan, this is a country that really caught my attention, for their culture and beautiful places. In Japan I would like to walk for the main streets of Tokyo, full of lights and places to eat and try the real ramen, go to the magical temples and take pics to a cherry blossom tree. If I go to Japan one day, i cannot miss the Tokyo Studio Ghibli Museum, i’m in love with Hayao Miyasaki’s movies, they are so magical, I love the characters, the plots and the illustrations are beautiful, but the tickets are too expensive, so I have to save a lot of money to go.  However, I wouldn’t live in Japan, the culture shock could be huge, there are many things that are undesirable for the japanese peo...

POST 10 >> SOME REFLECTIONS

 Hi everyone! This year has been different to all of us, we have been on quarantine since March, but there are some positive things that I can get from this situation. I’m from Arica, but I went to Santiago on March, so I was able to spend more time with my sister, my father and my dog there, we cook a lot together and we also paint, my sister is probably leaving home next year, so I’m very happy for this time with her. Not everything has been perfect and we had have some troubles on the university, mainly for the connectivity and the not motivation, personally, I don’t have much motivation for the classes, but I keep going because in this context is the only thing that I can do. Some of my achievements are learn to cook different things, and learn to paint with watercolor, my sister is very good at it, so she teach me. Also, I’m a very disorganized, but this time has teach me to order my things like University, extra classes and my hobbies, and be able to do all the things that I ...

POST 9 >> “YOUR FAVORITE BOOK”

Hello classmates! I’m not very good reading, because I can’t keep my concentration, but when I was at school, I read the required books. One of the authors that I like the most was Alberto Fuguet, he is Chilean, and he writes books like “Mala onda”, “Tinta Roja” and “Sobredosis”. As I said before I don’t read too much, but curiously, all the books that I like the most are about young people a little bit wild, but with a normal life, that live something that changes their lifes. I have two favorite books, “Sobredosis” from Alberto Fuguet and “Noche de viernes” from Jordi Sierra i Fabra, I really recommend both, they are very short, so are perfect for people who don’t read too much. I don’t remember the last book that I read completely, but there is another one, that I love, it’s a beautiful history for children and adults too! it calls “Historia de un gato y la gaviota que le enseñó a volar” from Luis Sepúlveda, I read it in 7th grade, but I never get tired of it, if you want to read...

POST 8 >> A SUBJECT YOU’VE ENJOYED STUDYING THIS SEMESTER

Hi again everyone! well I’m not very sure about my answer because this semester has been very different, for all the things that we’ve been through and I didn’t have all the subject that I should have, but one of the subject that I like and I enjoyed the most is Improvisation, my teacher is Daniela Marini, she is very great and a good teacher, their classes are very interesting, she makes us explore in our movements and space. In classes we usually talk about the contents and then we do a short guided improvisation, with live music, the teacher makes us play with different thing, like the time of our movements, the energy or the space or even improvise with the objects in your room, I really enjoy this class, because is the only subject that we dance, despite that I don’t have a lot of space in my apartment. We have not had all the classes that we should, so we are a little bit behind the contents, for now we only learn the different qualities of movements, for example; time, energy...

Imagen
Hi again! I have a lot of people that I admire, my first teacher in Arica, Marcela Ramos and some teachers that I have met in classes Francisca Espinoza, Paula Sacur, Daniela Marini, but now I’m going to talk about Paulina Mellado, she was my improvisation teacher last year, she is a very great choreographer and teacher and I learned a lot of things, her improvisations are so real, she always said that we need to stay in our body. Paulina studied in the Universidad de Chile, has made a lot of works since 1991, she has been beneffited 5 times with the FONDART. She was director of the Company of dance, Balmaceda Arte Joven, Paulina has been teacher in different es institutions, since 2000 manages the cultural space Sala Santa Elena 1332, and now she has her own company Cia. Pe Mellado Danza. Paulina has influenced in the way I see improvisation and she is a inspiration for me, for all her influence. The pic that I choose is of her and her interpreters in “La Bailarina”, I watched it...
