My biggest fears/worries

I think that If we wouldn't live in the past or the future, only in the present, we wouldn't have fears or preocupations. Unfortunately live in the present it's so hard and we have to work for this.  I'm a person very fearful, but I'd like to change. When I was a little girl and I discovered that someday I will die, or my dad and my mom will die, I began to feel a terrible fear. It's very complicated be a child and try to undestand the death.  Some time ago I started to feel this fear again with more intensity and was very complicated. To control this fear  I began to meditate and approach to the spiritual practices. This way I meet Reiki. Also, I  came near to my family. My mom is a beautiful and wise person. Her words and her contention helped me so much. My father is very comprensive too. All that the fear brought  generated a important transformation to me and now I can see things that before I never saw before. For this , I think that the fears have a reason to be. They are talking about ourselves and they show us a way for grow up and be more conscious.

Pets/ animals

Since I was a little girl my family has have pets. My mom really loves the dogs. Now we have eighteen dogs. I think that they invade my space a little, It's very crazy... but it's ok. I like more the cats than the dogs. My grandmother has a cat. Her name is Pepa. I adore her, is very beautiful and loving. She's with us since a kitten.
I think that have a pet is important because is a form of feeling other kind of love, a inconditional and reciprocal love.
In general I respect so much to the animals. I think that they are very kind and generous with the enviroment. In the future I would like to be vegetarian... but i'ts hard for me leave to eat meat. I'm disagree with the zoo and any other animal expoitation activity, like the chilean rodeo for example. I think that it's terrible.

If I could be an animal I would like to be a bird. They are very pretty and independent. I've always want to fly... It must be wonderful. Sometimes I dream with this.

My best vacation

 

I think that all the experiences are good...so, It's hard for me decided one holiday or travel. But well,  in this oportunity I will write about a special travel that I did this year. In August , a friend named Matías and I  were invited to dance to Valdivia, in a Festival of contemporary dance. We stayed there only three days, but the experience was very beauty. We arrive to Valdivia a Thursday in the morning and we come back to Santiago the Saturday in the night. Many dancers go to the festival and I can share with their. The first day, we went to walk for the city and we visited a museaum. In the evening we danced in the Municipal Theatre of Valdivia, and after that we went to a cocktail and a dinner. Later, we go to a party. Was very funny, and I felt really happy because so many people congratulate us for our performance.The next day, with Matías we had more time to tour the city and we visited the Botanical Garden of Valdivia. It seems to me very beautifull. In the night we were invited to watch a work of dance named ''Sinapsis''. After the show, we went to the house of Matías's friend. The last day in Valdivia, we took a dance class in the morning and after lunch we go to the beach of Niebla. In the night, again we went to watch other work of dance in the theatre.
This experience was very important to me because was the first time that I go to dance in other place. Valdivia is amazing, and the best, is that I don't spent money because the invitation was all inclusive.

Country I'd like to visit

I would like to visit so many countries, because I think that all of them could have interesting things to see or learn…But I really would like to know about the oriental culture , specially for the spirituality  and worldview that this places have. Maybe I'd like to visit India, but only for a travel. I don't think that i'd like to live in this country because I'm disagree with some traditions  like the marriage or the way that the women are seen. 

I know that India is a big country with a lot of people and its culture  is very old and mystic. The yoga is a practice and indian philosophy , for example. I would like to go to India when I will be more adult and mature, and I need more  spiritual peace and knowledge.  I'd would visit a peaceful place, not crowded cities.

Evaluation of my Blogging Experience

Evaluation of my Blogging Experience

Write about your experience using blogs in the English class.

Write in english has been a new experience to me. I'm not accustomed to write about me and my preferences. Also, is the first time that I write a blog. I don't know how ocuppy this tool, and I think that it's useful. I thought that it would be bored, but it was fun.

I think that my writing skills has better and I have known new vocabulary, but I'm not feel able to write a long text without the dictionary help. I have some  gramatical problems yet and I'm not so fast writing in english.
Truly, I wouldn't like to write about another thing. I think that it's enought. I don't like to talk about myself, specially in the internet where any person can read it. If I want to write, probably I will do in privacy and spanish. I think that with the english I can't express all my ideas. The spanish seems to me more poetic, and  the same idea could be write of many ways.

About music

It's hard to me talk about music. I would like to know so much about music genres. Now I like the minimalist music, rock, pop, jazz, trova, tango and classical music.  I grew up to listening Queen and ABBA because my father liked it. Also I knew all the songs of Chayanne because my mother love him. In my adolescence I used to listen british and american bands. When I was 14 years old I began to take piano lessons, but I think that I don't play it so good. This way I knew Chopin and Beethoven, and I became interested in classical music. I another life i would like to be a composer. Now  I  like the instrumental music. The sounds of the cello, the double bass, the guitar and the piano break my heart. Yann Tiersen and Rene Aubry likes to me so much. They are french musicians.

 This year my aunt invited me to the Coldplay's concert. I really enjoyed songs like ''The scientist'', ''Fix you'' and ''Yellow''. It seems so beautiful to me.

I really admire to the musicians and composers. I think that their work is amazing.

My favourite book

When I was a little girl and I learned to read I remember that the the first book that I read was a chilean tale named ''El medio pollito'' by Rosario Ferré. I always was interesed in reading. I prefer to read novels, essays, poetry more than  scientist literature.

I've never have a favourite author, but Julio Cortázar, Ernesto Sabato, Gabriel García Márquez, Hermann Hesse, Miguel de Unamuno, Mario Benedetti, Alejandro Jodorowsky, María Luisa Bombal, Fiódor Dostoyevsky among others have written a books that I liked it and have marked my adolescence.

If I had to chooose a favourite book I think that it was ''One hundred years of solitude'' by Gabriel García Márquez. For me, this book is a masterpiece. The first time that I read it  I was 14 years old.  This is a magical realism novel that relates the Buendía's story, a family that lives in a place named Macondo. Is a very beautiful story. In the attached image appears a little review of this.

Now I'm reading ''Sensitive Body'' by David Le Breton. It is related with the body, the relations and the dance.
