My blogging experience

This semester we had to write semanal themed blogs. In my opinion this experience was so very enriching for my writing skills, among others. In general, I liked the option to write week by week about any theme, because I feel that is a very important instance to improve our english, order our ideas about the theme we want to talk and also know more about our classmates.

For me, I'm not sure if my writing skills got better than before I started to write these blogs. However, I really feel that now I have more facility to explain my ideas in a text wrote by me, besides using more english words (and its corresponding times).

I think that any interesting topics to talk about would be:
- What's your favourite music/band?
- Talk about your town/small town
- What do you change of you university?

Whatever, I feel really thankful about the blogging experience, it makes me feel that I can learn more everytime.

My Reflections over the Strike

The principals discussions addressed in the strike, are related to the national demands about the actual education. End profit, quality and free education for all the chileans students even a feminist education. There are the same demands of the past years, and -in my opinion- it seems like will never change.

Past year, the strike was ratified week by week every friday, and through this method the strike lasted about two months. Now, the strike was indefinite during his first month, but for this week it was decided back to the old method and revalidate the strike week by week. Maybe, the indefinite strike caused a low allegiance to the movement in our school.

Finally, I learnt that the national policy is analogous to university's policy. Everyone of our representatives only are asking for personal career and fame. Maybe for this we still can't win any of our demands.

A Subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

This semester I've really enjoyed to take the class of Chronicle and Interview. This subject helped to me to improve my writing style, and make it most interesting and understandable. In spite of my favourite subject is related to the theories of communication, I think that this semester Chronicle and Interview was more useful than other subjects, because the experiencie was enriching: to interview some people and from these conversations begin to write a chronicle about their experiencies was really amanzing!

The interview that I remember clearly until today, was with Victor Hugo Montoya. He was accused of planting a bomb make by an extinguisher in 2014. Then, Victor spent 16 months in custody, and the prosecution couldn't prove his involvement in the case. Finally, Victor was acquitted of the charges against him, because the prosecution never showed any valid proof.

However, that time I discovered that I really like to hear the people and their experiencies, and finally write about it. This is the most important -as I- learning in Chronicle and Interview: to understad and listen to the people, everybody has an amanzing story to tell.
