a secret place

In 2004 the police of Paris discovered a cinema in an uncharted cavern. There they found different kinds of tasks, like swastikas, celtic crosses and the Star of David.

When people asked them for the discovered they said they didn’t know anything about that. They have no clue about who could do it, and the purpose of it.

Working on it they found an electricity system in which the people who were there could record, by camera, anyone who passed. This, according to the police, was to keep strangers away.

The place looks like an “underground amphitheater”. Police also found a cinema screen and different films even recently thrillers.

The electricity system was very sophisticated, and these surprise them. They even have phone lines. So police decided to call expert too see, and try to explain how can they received it, and from where. But when they came, they found a note in the floor. It said: “Do not try to find us”.

Today people can go to visit the place and take guide tours. But there are restrict sections.

I choose this new because I found it interesting. It gave me curious to know what have happened there, because by the note you can tell that the place used to work till police found it. So maybe that was the place where a secret sect or society used to have reunions in. And it’s logical that they keep meeting  but in other place.

books

I have always love reading, when i was little my mom used to buy me books which i could interact with.I have to write on them or paint.  My favorite books were a couple I bought in Argentina (I’m pretty sure if a read them now I would find them very very silly). I think that her and my grandmother taught me the pleasure of reading, it gave me and amazing imagination, when I was little, I and used to write my own stories, and I did my own books.  Now I prefer reading real stories than fiction. Harry Potter or The lord of the rings, were never my type. My favorite books are Fahrenheit 451, La Soledad de los Números Primos and The Catcher in the Rye, I’m probably forgetting one. But those kinds of book get my attention. I like reading about psychology, esotericism and history too.  Reading also helps you to have more vocabulary (besides imagination).

Right now I’m reading Confieso que he vivido (Pablo Neruda), A Clockwork Orange (Antonhy Burgues), and Raro (Óscar Contardo). I can’t avoid reading more than one book at the time, because when I get bored of one I have so many that I can’t help staring with other one even if I’m reading four or more. I never get confused or connect the stories of each book. 

somewhere

I don’t know why this topic is so difficult for me. Probably because I can’t find just one favorite place (and if you think about it, I can never choose just one thing of anything jeje).  So I will talk about places I like in Santiago. First of all, is important to say that I like Santiago a lot, but I can understand why someone would hate it. I’m used to the rhythm of the city, the noise and the people. And I definitely like it. One of the things I like the most is going to the center and walking, because always strange things happen. To just walk I would choose that place. To eat I like “pollisimo” which is in baquedano, or “papi pollo” which is in manuel montt, near my school. The best French fries I have ever tasted have been from there.  To drink mojitos I’m not sure yet, but I’m doing a list of the best places to have one (but I haven’t choose the first place). To dance anywhere is a good place if you are with the right people (that sounds so missifus, #sorrynotsorry).

Well there are a lot of things you can do in the city, going to the cinema, the theatre, concerts, etc. There are so many activities for each day that you can turn any place in something special for you.  It will be easier if you choose the right people to spend that time with.

French fries and gravity fallks, forever and alwayssss

Well is really easy to make me happy, i would say that there are more things that make me happy than sad.  But if I had to make a list I would probably put French fries first. Watching videos of people, especially children, falling would be second. I can’t resist laughing at these videos.  The third place would be for mojitos.

Well thinking it more carefully I guess that right now the thing that brings more happiness into my life is Gravity Falls. This is an animated series from Disney xd, created by Alex Hirsch. It is about the story of two brothers (Mabel and Dipper) who have to spend their summer in their uncle’s house, who lives in gravity falls, Oregon.  There, mysterious things happen, and the kids will try to solve the problems to find what really happens there.  When I watched the first episode in Disney, two year ago I thing, it did catch my attention, but then one day (this year) I was in Netflix and I didn’t know what to watch so in the section of “select for you” I saw this series and I thought, well, why not. This was the begging of something I would have no idea. Since that day I just couldn’t think in anything else. I would prefer staying at home watching this than going out with my friends.

When I watched all the series (the 3 seasons) my obsession stopped, and I came back to reality. 

exercises

I did different exercises, the most difficult for me was the listening part, because sometimes I get lost and I didn’t hear some things. To improve it, and do it better, I think I have to speak more in English with other people, doing this I will listen to them, and that will help me. Reading and vocabulary was easier for me.

eloísa díaz

A person I admire. When I think about this topic there are many names that comes to my mind, the majorities comes from my family and are women. So, if I have to talk about a public person I admire, I would talk about Eloísa Díaz. She was the first woman in Chile who studied medicine in Universidad de Chile (back at 1866).

I heard about her in school. I was impressed because at the time that was not a thing ladies should do. So she was a brave women who knew what she wanted, and did the right things to get it.

At this moment of the history, we have many women who fight every day for our rights, to have the same opportunity as men and to stop the harassment. But everywhere there is always someone who do things first, and then others who follow. In this case, being the first women going to college was a big step. In a sexist society where only men could study and women had to stay at home, caring for her children, I imagine that her choice was not well looked at at first. Probably there were people who tried to stop her, and even if she didn’t have to fight with anyone, I admire her for having the courage to do something no women did.

And this was not just a big step to her; it was for all women in Chile who after her could go to college. She proved women have the same qualities as men.

a good present

I like presents a lot, so my birthday is my favorite day in the year. I think I could not talk about just one present that has been special for me. So I will talk about the ones I remember. When I was 6 my mom bought me a memorice, and at the time, that was my favorite game, I could spend hours playing it, I didn’t care if a have no one to play with, I could play it along even it is a two players game. When she saw how happy I was with it, she started to buy different kinds of tabletop games for me. When I was 7 my dentist removed one of my teeth, my mom congratulate me and bought me a Barbie’s phone, it was not real, but it has lots of record in the answering machine, so you could make plans for your Barbies, it was funnn. For Christmas, last year, I received a keyboard and it has become special for me. At first I didn’t know how to occupy it, but I watched lots of videos in YouTube. Now, I wouldn’t say I’m an expert on the field but I have learned many things that have been helping me with my progress. Now I have it in my room, and I like playing it at night because that way I can enjoy more the sound, during the day the noise around my house don’t let me do that.
