My best friend

Francisca is my best friend since six or seven years ago.  We know in school of my natal city, Cauquenes. I´m was of change of school this time, Fran was since first time  one big help.

We union very think, the music, temes of books and tv programs. When I  was a little  I like 30 seconds to mars,  music rock alternative music, together a Fran we listened our to favorite songs.

Now  Fran studies engineering are in Concepción in the south of Chile, very far of me, is very sad this situation.

Despite the distance, We are very close. The tecnology as internet, telephones and social red allow us to stay in touch and catch up.

I travel to Cauquenes, my city very little, in many ocations us do not agree on the days of travel. Other days us agree in travel and us share one coffe or other drink,jjaa.

At least once a month we organize a meeting of girls where my house or the of Francisca. We listened music, we eat  potato fried and ice cream, we look films, we laugh a lot of the life situations of each.

I like very share with my friend, is my best friend in world, I wish I had more time to hang out with my friend.

In a  first moment,  we think  at the same university, but things changed and studied very far. But the situation is a good excuse  to we visit others cities and  know other  persons.

In my opinion the Chileans in the September organized in lathe to celebration in one different way what commonly.  The eighteen in Chile is transform in one celebration of “national day” without notions of real identity.

Talk about of customs in Chile is very complicate, because in the last decades the intromission of other cultures is one sad reality. Nevertheless customs why drink chicha or wine in this context of celebrations is “traditional”, by other side the national dance, “la cueca” is only characteristic of this date (commonly). Other dancing and other plays by occupy the fondas today.

In my personal vision, the most important element in the Chilean culture is the national dance, the cueca. This dance is transversal to times, to gender and other important aspect of society, because exist form different for dancing, traditional cueca, cueca chora, brava and other depend to location geographic of people. The national dance is one reflection of the society (should) the how of live the culture, is very important for the construction of national identity.

Since my point of view, the element of our culture should be celebrate is all associated with our ethnic legacy, because today in commonly don’t give relevant for one culture imitative of other element, of other cultures in special the north American.   

Is very relevant know our traditions, the customs of our forefather, the memory of country is the basis.

Pelluhue

Pelluhue is a  beach, in the center south in the country. Is my favorite place in the world. Is a simple place with a estranger beautiful.

I´m from  7° region, the beach is a places of my memory. Since girl I travel to Pelluhue, because is near to my home, one hour approx.

In Pelluhue, I enjoy of the sun, the sea and read books in the back sand characteristic of the place. And paint in my little home of beach all landscape what consider relevant attraction.  

When, I´m felling sad, travel to Pelluhue, the silence is really important for me.  In occasion of happiness also travel to beach with my friend, because the company of my favorite persons is one perfect complement for enjoy this space.   

I´m  like this beach in specific, the wonderful location and the animals with the sea, the typical seagulls of the center zone of Chile. Other important aspect in this place is the sound, the noise of sea, the crush of the wave, the trill of birds and many others beautiful sound.

Many person visit beach in summer, in general is very noisy in the January and

February, in my opinion the beach is most beautiful in winter, because  is very calm and you be can talk about the local habitants, and know.

In my opinion the experience in general was a very important for my writing expression, because for me is complicate this situation. My formation in English in the high school is a bad experience, in contrast to was happened in this English class.

The writing skills, I think be conform different element in the connection with the other languish, is important know expressed all ideas in writing redaction. Is a fun form for know English.

In the future I would like include the redaction the other blog in Spanish and English, in my experience is a good form for writing in English. Is a other element for expression my ideas and opinions in clear method.

I like write about different topics of themes relevant in my life for example typical places and good food in the city, information about books and arts, virtual tours in the different places of Chile, recommend bars and restaurant with social component, places with history and tradition.

Someone suggestions in the process:

Should contain the write weekly blog, but should have one correction for progress the redaction and the form of connect the ideas, translate of Spanish to English of easy way. I think, the correction have to classmates, because promote the inclusion and relations in the class by all student. 

 

Social history of Chile

In the class the teacher aboard different topic about social problems in the history of Chile. Is very interesting to think this context, because the sociology as discipline contemplates all tension in the communities throughout the time.

Gabriel Salazar is a very  important person in this work, because he has many information related  to realities in different social class.

The contents we have seen in class are the capitalism in different aspects  and its contribution in the social construction in Chile. Other theme aborded is the different elites and its configuration, connecting it national economy in the last three centuries.

I like the subject, because it contemplates a different history than the one studied at school, the vision proposed in the class is critical, because it makes us see from a different point of view for example the character named in the usual history like Diego Portales, O`Higgins and others are not the heroes that we thought, in contrast they were complicate person and very authoritarians they defended their own interests.

Is important the formation of a personal opinion of the processes in the national history.

Sick people introduction

The  definition of concept “sick people” referrer to diminution in the capacity of people for make conidian activities.

This concept considerer to mental and physical incapacity in the different persons.

The “sick people” to suffer very problems  as the  discrimination and bad attention in the health system (public). This situation representing a one big problem in the society.

Health System

In Chile, the health system represent  one problem, because every days suffer collapse, the attention is very  slow and impersonal.

The political public is insufficient and not have a human component.

AUGE System

The definition of AUGE is “Plain of universal accesses of explicitly guaranties “.

This system is implemented in Chile from 2005.  The propjets to consider:

·         Access: obligation of Fonasa and the Isapres of secure the health benefit.

·         Attention opportunities: exist of one period maxim for the benefit.

·         Quality: The attention guarantied

This project to transform  in one far promise, distant of the reality  that suffer the sick person.

Sick people march and local movement

Most of 5 thousand  person participation in the “march of the sick” in Santiago.

The march search the attention of government for that give a national bottom of medicament for the terminal and critical patient.
