What song?!

It's so difficult choose just a song that I like, especially because there are many cool songs! Besides, my favourite songs are in Spanish. I show you one song that makes to fly my soul. I'm talking about "Across the universe" by the Beatles. It´s a little sentimental song, but means many things to my life, although to be honest, this song gets lately significance. I heard it the first time, when I had 15 years old, I don’t remember how exactly, but I remember that I was in the highschool and all the changes that I happened in that moment are reflected in this song and its melody.

I like this song because says some sentences that identify myself, like: “Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup” or “Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes, that call me on and on across the universe. When I heard these phrases, I feel them like a truth. I also like the Beatles so much, that it’s an inescapable reason!
I think this song belongs to the time of the ‘Psychedelic Rock’ of the Beatles, but I don´t know, I could say that it’s just a Rock song. 
I enjoy it and just takes a while to get back some memories to my mind. The importance of remember, that is a good cause to hear music. The music is a source of the past and it shows few features of ourselves.
That's why the Music rocks!. 
Oh!, before I forget it, I thought there is a movie about the music of the beatles and this song in particular, the name is the same of the song "Across the universe". Also, you can hear it on another movie: "I am sam". I hope you like it too.
Here I put the video, enjoy it to the rhythm of the wave...



Take care, see you in the next post, bye!

Television.

If I have to choose what is my favourite piece of technology, I must say that I am a great fan of the Television and I don't know why exactly, I'm not interested on computers or another things so much, just the TV. I think the reason is for the fantasy in that world, its colors and movements that since my childhood I used to watch. I like the images, the different characters and their performance. When I start to be interested in the humanist area, I start to watch the news, to learn about another societies. This is the way that I found to feel empathy with the people and their problems. There it was born my social side.
There are many tv shows that I remember, like "Cachureos", it was so cool!. We are so fortunate to have this people!, We grow up with this wonderful machine that makes the world more little and the cultures are more close. We can know all the news around the world, in minutes. The information area was so much more difficult in the past. That's why our generation is more fortunate than others.
Actually, I don't have time to watch my favourite programs because I'm busy with the university, but I try to make a little space in my spare time.
My conclusion is: I love TV!.

About my career

Hello everyone, today I'd tell you something about myself and my career. When I finished highschool, after much thought I decided to take a year off, although I wasn't free from another resposabilities, I studied on a preuniversity to carry out the PSU.
Since a lot of time, I wanted study Sociology, but I can't do it immediately. I think now it was the best thing that I could do, because I had enough time to meditate about my own future.
I chose this career because I like to see the people, also I like to think in social changes and look for an answer about this problems. I think that we (sociologists) could transform the society with a little changes to make the difference. The student needs to be in contact with the people, because they are our job tools.
My favourite subjects are Sociology and Anthropology, because I'm interesting the basic theory of some sociologists and the culture. It`s so difficult the university life, but I try to come true my ideas and I hope to be a great proffesional on the future, I only have to study hard to be like Weber (a famous sociologist) someday...

Chiloé

Good day everyone, I like to share my experience in this wonderful place, that I was fortunate enough to know in depth, because I lived, for many years, in this area. On vacation I visit (again) the island, this time I went with my father, who is an expert in the road of Chile and he show me a little more about Chiloe everytime that we can go.
The entrance to this travel is magical since the beginning, when we cross the Canal de Chacao in a ferry, and I can't to describe that sensation, but is an unique experience, that I recommend to all of you. When we arrived in the island, we can the opportunity to visit , very fast, the town of Ancud, situated to the north of Chiloé. This Island have many patrimonial monuments like the ancient churchs, is very exciting to can explore in this local history. We come back to the road, the next town to visit is Castro, there we could to enjoy a traditional fest, where there are a few demostrations of their customs, like roast lamb or threshing, and more, the food, handicrafts and traditional performances created by local artists (dances, comedy performances), that it's a very pleasant experience; to finish, I can to say that this travel it's, in general, a nice chance to know our country, especially this distant area, and I demand you to experiment that feeling that I describe you, this sensation that I want to expand in everywhere.
