My favorite animal..EVER!


When I was in 1° grade at school, I have to give a disertation for my classmates about an animal, but chosen by the teacher.
That animal was the chinchilla, and chinchilla is actually my favorite animal.
I have good memories about my school times and I still remember a lot of the disertation, amazing don´t you think? considering that I was 6 years old.
The chinchillas are small nocturnal mammals rodents, native from the Cordillera de los Andes, they live in Bolivia, Perú, and of course Chile. They feed on fruits, plants, insects and seeds. In the wild they live about 10 years, but as pets they reach up the 25 years of age. Females are bigger than males ( maybe that means... females are smarter? jaja).
Chinchillas are one of the animals with the best of coat. But its wonderful silky hair is also the direct cause of his death. It happens that they are searched by the fur industry to turn them into coats, handbags and other accessories. So, in the wild they are in danger, but in reserves, the chinchillas are safe.
In Chile, for example, there is a National Reserve of Chinchillas, sheltered by the Conaf, that ensure the safety and the care of each animal.
In the future, I´ll love to work with chinchillas, maybe in a reserve, saving them from the danger of extinction, educate the people to care the animals, specially ours. Well... to do a lot of things for my favorite animal!


CHINCHILLA´S RULES!

A dear tourist would have to...



First of all a foreigner has to eat! And a place to eat very well could be "Patio Bellavista". It has excellent restaurants adn in the same place you can find some stores...to buy a souvenir from Santiago. They sell shirts, magnetos to the fridge, key rings and a whole world of things.
Near of "Patio Bellavista" you can walk a couples of blocks and find "San Cristobal Hill", you can get up throw elevator and have the greatest view of our city... but I have to say that it would be greater after a rain...anyway jijiji.
If it´s ski season a foregner friend would have to go to Vallen Nevado, La Parve, or some other ski resort, and if not, the tourist have to go to "Cajón del Maipo", a really wonderful site, and spend time with the nature and realx, or do some extreme sport like rafting and experience adrenalineeee!
Also must to visit the Pablo Neruda´s home "La Chascona". Neruda is considered internationality, moreover, the house it´s really beautiful and big, and full of entertainment things.
Finally, he would have to visit "Plaza de Armas" , considered as the historical center of Santiago. In there you can take pictures , cartoon yourself and take a nice and funny memory from your travel.
VISIT SANTIAGO! YOU´RE CORDIALLY INVITED!

Session 5: Death Penalty


In my opinion, I don´t believe in Death Penalty. I believe that no human being has the power nor the right on another person to finish the live to somebody. It happens to take the rights of each person, even so the crime committed is very high.
The death isn´t a punishment, but the passage to another better life, that for my opinion and my religious thought. But I believe in the punishment as good, I mean, to learn of the committed errors and to be able to amend them. For example those people who are judged by violations or murders, or some other type of crimes, before dying, I believe that they must pay by the errors, and at the same time to recover themselves and maybe become rehabilitated people. Obviously if these people will never be "normal" ,the long penalties are good in these cases. The death is definitively the easy way, but not the good one.
Countries like USA, Guatemala, Japan, India and others, have not abolished the death penalty. For example in China, the political corruption is punished with the death penalty... And is here when I think to myself... So free what we are? How to condemn a person to only think of a different way?! And also is here when I feel happy for living in Chile and not in these countries that see this like the best of the solutions.

Session 4 : Country I would like to visit




I would like to travel to FRANCE
yeeaaah! always that I'm watching a movie, like with french music I'm like " oohhh I love that music! someday I will travel to FRANCE". Love the way they talk, I feel envy, I mean, I'll love to talk that way, I think it's completely diffrent to the english.
Well, the most of people when think in Francia, think in Paris... well ... me to! jaja. I already imagine me, on the feets of the Eiffel Tower, in the midnight! with the moonlight, and of course the lights from the tower,(somepeople called the Gold Tower because of the lights), drinking in a coffee shop. OH! the paradise for me.
It`s a country all fashion, all glamour! so magazine thing!. It's a rich country in culture, full of museums... The Louvre Museum where's the famous "Monalisa"... so cool!
Well, in my opinion, i don't know if I will like to work or live in France, that means to learn a completely different language, means to be so far from the family. Maybe be there for a little time, just to have a good time, like for have holidays, but not to stay there for ever.
Au revoir guys!

Well, for years back, in the capital of my country Chile, Santiago, the system of transporter, was replaced for a new one. The old yellows "micros", now are "Transiantiago" modern buses, modern... I guess.
The true is that, before i get in College, i didn´t use a lot the buses, i mean, when i was at school, or even before, when the yellows " micros" were the transporter, i didn´t use much them. But, i have some memories about that.
If i compare, like the general things, i can say that the yellows micros were unsafe. You always had to be affirmed very well, and worried about.. about everything! The driver drived so fast, i remeber once time, i have gone with my mom, and she was kind of worried, jajaja.
The thing was like more independent, or that´s i think. The driver adorned her "baby"... well i remember a lot of micros with its own name, with every kind of things hanging from the sky.... that i liked.
Now, i think its better. Although equal there are robberies, are much less. The buses are bigger, so more people can be in. It´s safer. You also can pay once, always when before you were in the subway. It´s cleaner, expeditious, and seats for disable people...
For these and a lot of more reasons, i think that Transantiago, is something that we have to care, and be proud to have.

session 2

My favorite peace of technolgy is my laptop, also known as a notebook.
It is a personal computer designed for mobile use. I got it in 22 January 2007 for my birthday, and i was really happy for that!! it is white and so cute!

Well, the laptop isn´t a peace of technology too hard to use, in fact is easy and funny!
I use it everyday, for a lot of things. For example, when i´m boring i can use it for play a game, or go to the Internet and go to Facebook, or another page of Internet. I like to listen music, EVERYDAY! so i can download music from Ares ( a program for that), and listen new music.
Mmm there are many things that i can do with my laptop! I can chat with my friends, watch pictures of my family, to do the works for the College, looking for information for my tests and another things. That´s why i like so much my laptop! `cause i can use it for a lot of things!

... BUt honestly , i think that it isn`t a peace of technology that i couldn`t live without it... in fact before that i got it, my life was the same.
