About the blog: 

To write blogs, improve my english, because I did not have many oportunities to write in english, so the blog was a good way to develop ideas through writing, the same with read in english.   

The post I enjoy writing most was that one about a photograph, or maybe that one about travel to another country. The reason why I choose the first post is because I just buy some batteries for a camera, and taking photos a few days before, so was a specific momento to write about that; and show the picture. About the second picture that I use in this post, it give me so good memories of a special moment, and it also was important to remember and write about in english.

The least post that I enjoyed writing was of the family meal, no for the topic, it was because I felt bad, like I had a cold, then was difficut to write easily, at the end of the class I felt worse, so I went to the doctor and I had sinusitis, were a bad day. 

All the teacher's blogs was so intersting, and maybe my favorite is about "a song you like at the moment", the history of the chinese song is interesting too, I would not have dared to ask really, at least if I don´t know well the lenguage. 

What I like of use the blog was the topics of the posts, maybe in the college I don´t have many moments to write narurally about things of myself; and was good to write in a free format and to know a new web. I don´t think that I have something that I dislike of use the blog, it was really good. 

Use the blog was a good experience.

The TV programme that I watched as a child was Diego y Glot. 

A chilean TV programme, that I remember to see more on DVD than on TV truly. Maybe i was about 5-6 years old. 

The plot is about Diego, his friend, and dog, Glot; and happend in Chile, more specifically in Santiago, but also have chapter in Chiloé for example.  

Currently, in the chapters you can see a lot of recognized places of Santiago, like the Casa central de la universidad de Chile. 

The protagonists, was students of the school. so the plot is about adventures that they have being good friends, and sometimes, with others and new characters too. The center of the plot is about the family of Diego Plá too. 

I enjoy see the programme until today, also yesterday we was seeing Diego y Glot with my sisters; is funny and "simple",  and also reminds me when I was a child. 

I don´t remember exactly when I watch it, but in the TV, was broadcast for a long time, also I usually use to see it on DVD as a child, with others series and movies, like La sirenita or Los pulentos, another chilean serie.

 The place I´m going to write about is the San Cristobal hill. 

I don't think it's really special, but it's a place I like to go.

The San Cristobal hill is in Providencia, and I don´t remember the last time I was there, but the reason why I like to go is because you have a lot of things to do and because I've gone with friends, family, even my dog, so I have memories with all of them. 

Of the things I like to do, in addition to walking and touring, can be buying maqui ice cream, going to Plaza Gabriela Mistral and seeing Santiago from above.

I think this cold season is much better to go, in addition, until almost the beginning of June, there are quite a few almonds in the outermost parts of the hill to the south.

 Courses section: General English >Session 1: Do you need a hyphen?

I saw the video, that is a 6 minutes podcast, and have transcription, wich is ver useful to follow the audio sometimes. I consider that the duration of the podcast is accurate. 

I think the content was simple but interesting, and I liked that, in the podcast at the final, the speakers do questions and they answered, so I can see if I got the idea. 

Also have a session vocabulary, with the compound adjetives with hyphens, this is so good to complement. 

Grammar section: 6 Minute Grammar-Easy grammar >Activity 5. 

I did since the second activity, read a text of the grammar rules of "must an have to".

I thought it was good to review, and in the next activity I evaluate myself.

The others contents of the section are interesting to check too, are varied and I would like to review them better after. 

Pronunciation section: Medium pronunciatio >5 days to improve your pronunciation. 

This section have avaible certificates of completion, I think is a good motivation. 

I like that you need to do one section per day, the content tracking is better for learning or reviewing. 

In addition to the 3-minute video, there are a couple of pronunciation activities, and in the following video are the answers. I think it's pretty complete.

 Hello!, today I´, going to write about a bestie.


Her name is Constanza, and I knew her since 9 years ago, now I realice this is a lot of time, because my first memory with her is in the school, the first day in 6* grade, so she is my first and oldest friend for the school. 

She is one year younger than me, and we return together to house all the days, walking after the school, because we live near from each other. In this time, I think that was our favorite thing to do, because we also can go to other ways, or buy something to eat while. Basically we was all the day together, because the last years in the school, we sit together too. 

In common, maybe we don´t have a lot, now I think, and I can´t found anything in common. We are just good friends. 

Now, we go out, with other friend too, to drink coffe, and have a large and nice day talking and walking, insteant we don´t have so much time to be together so this was a special and grateful moment. One of our favorites topics to talk about is what we would do in the future, I really don´t know how we ended up talking about it all the time. 

The last time we met, was a long ago, but the last time we see each other was like 1 week ago; she is working near of her house, selling in like a minimarket, so the mondays, how I don´t have class, and if I need to buy something, I go and pay in her cash, also when the time is a little bit, is great to see her and ask how is she.

 I´m going to write about a family meal I remember. 

There was on a 18 of September, in my house. For the year 2017, when the weather of the season was so warm and comfy yet. Or maybe it was a pair of year before. 

In my house we have a big space in the garden, so, we can be here all the day, and there was my family too. My uncles, grandmother, aunt,  cousin, etc.

We don't celebrate de 18 of september like a "patriotic day" but we have a great time eating chilean food, and doing chilean games, and how this is just one day in the year, it was so funny and comfy. 

I think I remember this time instant other 18 of September, because the last 2 years the weather was so cold for the day, and this is a little bit bored.

My sister and my cousin are ones of the funniest persons that I know so, in some pictures of the day they are doing funny faces or doing rare things. One of the reasons that I like these pictures too is because, how this happened a long time ago, so they look so littles. 

In my family, my grandmother do the empanadas and my aunt the sopaipillas, but we eat a lot of more chilean foods. 

The games we use to play was the salto en saco, tirar la cuerda, la rayuela, etc.

My aunt is a history teacher, so, all of the historic celebration or commemoration, we also have a history class, and this is so interesting too. 

Is memorable because I just remember having a great time in this moment, and the day was so pretty. And how I said, it happened just 1 day at the year. But  I don't have like a specifically memory of this day, I just remember having a soo great time. 

I´m waiting for the 18 of September of this year, to see what we gonna do or what would to be a new memory of the family meal.

 Good morning!


I think that travel is not my favorite thing and not a goal in the future, but I also enjoy a lot knowing new places or link up it to geography, and that´s why, maybe I would like to visit countries like Canada, Australia, or Ecuador, for the different clime and conditions, and because they have different proportions compared to Chile. 

My favorite destination could be Australia, visit the islands, and the national parks, and obviously know the Indian Ocean and the different seas that surround Australia. And the Pacific Ocean from the other side. 

Another reason Id like to go to Australia is to know the language or a little bit more than the minimum I think I would need 😅

I would like to travel alone, but it would be nice if someone accompanied me or meet someone who knows Australia. 

If I go, I would like to stay as long as necessary to see everything I would like to see there, basically travel all Australia. Will it be a month?

Definitely Tasmania is one of the places I would like to visit, see the flora and fauna, but I think I still need to know more about the place too. And the Rottnest Island for the quokkas.

Hello, today I´m going to talk about what I did the last weekend.

First, I started my weekend in a friend house, on the saturday sunrise; we haven´t seen each other for a long time, so we talk a lot, was also her birthday so this was a really great time. 

In the afternoon of the saturday I went to the birthday of the son of my parent´s friend, and I have a great time there too; our dads are more like brothers, so I know all the people that were there, someones that I haven´t see for a long time, and was a great and comfy moment talking once more

For the next day, the elections, I was wrong thinking that I could wake up early in the morning without alarm, so I went in the afternoon to vote with my sister, we were a "long" time in the school waiting for, and finally went back to house after leave things in the recycling. 

I don´t have class the mondays, so I considered like a day of the weekend too, and after a full week without class I start to do my homework, read and plan this week. I like this too because I have a full day to do what I have to do, so this is more calm. 

I enjoyed my weekend because I do different things compares to others weekends, and I was with people that I don´t seen for a time, so was very calm.

 Today I´m going to write about of the social media page that I usually visit: @straykids_97.2

I like listen kpop, so, the page is about a chilean fan page of the kpop group "skz". I met this group when I was in the school so I follow them since then. Skz have 8 members and in this page I can see content about them, like clips, information, news, collaborations, etc. I follow this page for more than 2 years but I don´t remember how I discovered it, I think maybe I was searching for a chilean fan page. 

I usually use Instagram when I was in the bus going to my house, so I see the content on instagram stories frecuently, and then go to the page and see the posts if I want it. 

I like this page because skz are a soo active kpop group, and my favorite, so I can be up to date with the content and know when they release more, for example, the comebacks with new songs, covers or vlogs, and also when they do concerts and are transmited.  Others reasons why I like this page is because my sister and some friends likes skz too and we can comment. Sometimes if  I don´t have a lot of time to search for the complete content, I can see clips, of presentations, lives, etc.

The special occasion I´m going to write about is a day, probably in 2015, I don´t remember well, when we woke up in the morning and all the garden was with snow. This was in Santiago, in my house, and maybe this what do this day special. 

I said that i don´t remeber well when was it, but this day was probably in a weekend, and a day in 2015, because I remember it as a child, because I play in the snow with my sisters all the morning. Of course that we do a snowman, and is a photo of these, with my and my sisters too, the 4 wrapped up with a scarf.      

I remember that there was the dog that we have in this time too, and my older cat, Belle, so them see the snow too. 

I think that the reason that I remember this occasion is because it was a unique ocation, there is no more snow in Santiago,  and was really special to see the snow in the garden of my house, that was a big place, so this was a lot of snow, a fabouluse remeber as a child. 

We have a good time in the snow this day, but I don´t remember what happend after that, like, how much time we was playing in the snow, or how much the snow was in our garden, but I remember my hands soo cold. 

And the night before was a pronostico weather of the snow for the next morning, and there was no so confirmed, so I also have a full of emotion night thinking if I could see snow at the next day.  So my emotion of see the snow at woke up was incluse more big

The photograph that I´m going to write about show at my cat, Manchas, and is picture that I take the last tuesday. The reason why I like this photograph is because this same day I buy batteries to the camera, that I use to take the photo, and was a camera that i usually use when I was like 10 years old, so was without use all this time, it still works very well so I can see pictures of years ago too. 

The photograph reminds me when I meet my cat, because in january of 2022 arrive at my house a pregnant cat, so noisy and sweet, she have the same pelage of Manchas and I took care of her for like 3 weeks and after she was adopted by a neighbors, but we don´t know, I just don´t see her again; and months after, in may, was a paper in a near house that say "se regala lindo gatito" so the 7 of may we decides to adopted him. I say that he look like his mom, but they have the same personality too, so sweet and noisy, and with the same meow. With the time we realice that in the house we adopted him was her mom and a sister, so the cat I adopted was basically a cat that i took care before he was born. I think this is the reason why i love him so much (but he looks a bit angry in the photo).


I´d like to show another photograph, that i took with other camera, when I was in the south with my dad in the last days of october of 2022. We go to visit family, near of Carahue, and it was the first long trip that i do driving, because I "recently" have my license. I really like to drive, and with the weather going to the south is soo much better. 

When was the turn of my dad to drive I rested and took photos of  landscapes that I  like; one of these are a field of yellow flowers. Yellow is my favorite color and the flowers in the field are from canola oil and are so tall; I think that is a pretty view. The photo remind of me the great time that i have these days, because the flowers was frecuently in the ride.

 Maybe, my hobby is play volleyball, even when I¨m not doing it recurrently like I use to.

I start to play volleyball when I was 13 years old, 6 years ago, in the school, and I practice it too much until covid-19, but also at my last year in the school in 2021. With the university, since 2022, I´m not playing at all; in a team or training, but I play with friends or my sisters sometimes. 

To play, now I use just a ball,  but the equipment necessary is, of course the ball, a net, and knee pads if you want it. 

Voleyball is realize in a   court  that is  subdivide  and  involves, in a team of 6 persons, put together a move, with 3 touchs, to the other team, at the other side of the net. Is necessary take a lot of cautions during the game, like don´t touch the line of the other side, under the net, or when is your turn to serve , the first move of the game, etc. 


The principal reason why I enjoyed to play volleyball was be with my friends, because we played all the time in the school and for the school in a team,  training, and going to play with other schools. and training with them too. Another reason why I enjoyed to play volleyball is because i just like  the game , and it´s like "more my style", because have a lot of movement compares what i do the year before I start to play volleyball, because I play the guitar, and for me this was so calm, and I just strated to be bored to play guitar, after like 2 years. I also play guitar in the school, in the  course of "music" until 1 or 2 years more. 


Now the way I interact most to my hobby is watching games, because I can do it when I am studying writing, etc.

 The song is "Don´t cry" by Guns N Roses 🌹

I don´t remember when was the first time that i heard the song 

I think that i like this song because have a different  rhythm and vocal compares to others song from the band, like more soft and calm. Another reason why i like the song  is because in general i like Guns N Roses, and this kind of music, but also im really not a big fan.  

I listen to this song usually when i study (but depend by what im studyng to) or before going to sleep, but the song is also in some of my playlist so i could listen to it even if i don´t choose 

The reason why i don´t remember the first time when i listen the song would be that my mom is a Guns N Roses fan so i just grow up listen to their songs, so "Don´t cry" is just a song that i know probably since ever. At the same way, in a moment i searched the translate to spanish, so the mean of the song is something that i know too, like i are listen to the song in spanish and english at the same time, even when i think that i don´t know all the words used at all. Another fact, that isn´t completly by the activity that we are doing, is that the last cat we have, that have just 3 month, and was adopted like 3 or 4 weeks ago, was called Axel, by my mom, the same name of the vocalist of guns N roses, and usually the people asociate the reason of the name when they know about Axel 😸.
