Practice

About activities for practicing my English, I can only conclude which the items where I have to read and understand what I am reading and about what is it. By contrast, the listening and vocabulary activities were more complicated to do, it takes me so much longer than other things. Anyway, best results can be achieved if we practice continually. Don't give up friends! Have a nice week Martians!!

My dream job!

Hi everyone! Considering that I will swap Anthropology for Visual Arts, I would like to connect this post with the "new future" that it will bring me. Now my plans are, to study Visual Arts, next to this study a year and a half more to be a high school Visual Arts teacher, and if only I can, also I would like to study Art History and Theory at this same University.  So, having said that, start with the post.

If I am truly honest, I would really love to work in a high school. introducing a new methodology to teach. This method, I would like, it would will be more flexible, promoting the talent and each student art style. I even choke up when I think about it. 
Well, between the qualities and skills that I should have are (in my opinion): high expectations, a nice personality, a good style to teach, to be passionate to teach, a good rapport with students, to teach interactive classes, a lot of patience, establish harmony and discipline, not being close to a new kind of arts, such as ceramic or weaving. With many more of qualities and skills. 

Last but not least, I would get to this possible future job, to feeling like I will be part of the student's educational pathway, even, I hope, some that another future artist. Or simply to make them feel that all persons can be talented or artists. Do not make the classes boring .

That was it Martians! XOXO

Art in all types!

Hey Martians! Today the post will be about two things which I really love to do, to listen and to live day-to-day. In fact, I consider which them are so important that without them the life would not make sense to me, then I will explain why.

That "two things" are music and art. I shall start with the music. By age 8 or 9, when I was still studying in a small town near Puerto Natales, I started to learn to play traverse flute. At the age of 18 I still continued playing traverse flute, but starting the University I had not time to nothing which was not to read, so, I put it aside. By the way, the person behind almost everything my knowledge with respect to play traverse flute was Erik M. Thanks so much for everything.

Back in time, when I started the high school I met Angelino S. This teacher taught us art, without him the learning and practicing experience would have been differently probably. Many thanks to you too!

This year, due to many bad situations carried forward from prior months, I discovered which my place is not be in Anthropology, but that on the contrary it is in Art. Because, what better than painting, drawing, listening the most inspirational music. So relaxing. I can tell you which with only that two things I consider myself to be a very happy girl.  Unfortunately, although maybe I can change of career and starting with Art the next year, I am obliged to continue studying Anthropology the rest of this year. Only if the Faculty will do not reject me the career transfer. All this means that I still I won´t be able to paint while listening music. Why? Well, to be honest, continue in this career make me extremely unhappy, and this makes paint and draw very difficult, because a lot of reasons, such as I cannot focus my mind and I don't allow me to be relaxed and happy. I'm weird.

By the way! In addition to the foregoing, I also like to write stories of all kinds, recently I had very much enjoyed writing poems.

That's all, XOXO

Something I'd like to learn

Hello, hello little Martians! Today I would like to write about something which I would like to learn. If I am honest, I am the kind of person who have a list with things to learn one day, there are a lot of things, but only for today, I am going to choose three things.

These three things that I would like to learn are: to swim or at least to float (I do not know what I am exactly, because I do not even know to float, I am sinking like Jack of the Titanic, well... ignore that cruel reference) , to drawing human and animal faces, realistic, I hope, and finally, to use Photoshop (only for fun).

Something that I started learning and stopped that I would like to pursue? Well, let me time to think. Oh, I know what it would be, Volleyball.

I started to play (and learn, obviously) Volleyball when I was... Oh no, I did not remember when I started to play Volleyball. Although if I want to finish this post I am going to put me at age for reference, so you get some idea about... Well, I think that you get the point. Let's start again!

I started to play volleyball when I was fifteen or sixteen years old. I fell in love with volleyball, due to two simple reasons, One of those reasons is that the volleyball is a non-contact sport, What I want to say with this? Simply, I was not be forced to have body-to-body contact with players of the opposing team, such as basketball or football. 

I can promise you that I totally hate the body-to-body contact, because I am not an aggressive and rude person, so when I played basketball (before volleyball) I was putting myself very nervous for the body-to-body contact. 

That's all, XOXO

Free! Simpsonmania

Hello, hello little Martians, today I am going to talk about my favourite animated sitcom, (drum roll)... The Simpsons!!

And who does not know who are The Simpsons?
Well, The Simpsons, as I said at the start, is an animated sitcom, created by Matt Groening. It is a kind of a satirical representation of working-class life. The Simpsons family is comprised of five members, they call Homer (the father), Marge (the mother), Bart (the eldest brother), Lisa (the second daughter) and Maggie (the baby and the youngest of the family).

Well, I do not what more I should say, so I will write to you about my favourites seasons, characters, and scenes in particular that I love.
My favourite seasons are ultimately the fifth and the twelfth seasons. Because in these seasons are the best episodes ever!! Such as "Homer Goes to College", "Homer the Vigilante", or "New Kids on the Blecch", so funny episodes! Watch these episodes! I totally recommend it!

Second point, my favourites characters (this because, why I should choose only one?). If I should have to select only three characters I would like to choose Lisa Simpson (because I love her! She is so intelligent, a strong environmentalist, vegetarian, saxophonist, feminist ❣, with a liberal political stance, Buddhist, and a lot of qualities, all this without leaving her child spirit, well, in most cases.
The next character is Homer, yes, it was very predictable, but, Homer, although he is hot-tempered, clumsy, lazy, cranky, alcoholic, ignorant, silly, boor, but he do not stops being funny!!
And, ultimately, a random character, Bleeding Gums Murphy, a gifted saxophonist, who was the idol and role model of Lisa.

In conclusion, The Simpsons, even though it represents the reality of a "common" American middle class family, after the 20th season, The Simpsons were becoming a little boring, making the characters more unbearable (in the case of Lisa and Bart), a moralist and with conservative mind, even submissive (for example Marge), etcetera.

That's all Martians, bye, bye XOXO

Alien Evolution

Hey! It’s been a while haha.

Today I’m going to talk about the subject that I really enjoyed studying this semester. And this was Evolution <3 <3 I really, REALLY love this subject; in my opinion was the best subject on the year. The topics that tackled will be essential for my academy formation, because the mention that I want is physical anthropology.

Well, continuing with the theme of this post, I will tell you how were the classes and what I do with it. First, the subject was in charge of two professors, they are called Miriam and Sergio. I would like to say that each class was so interesting and entertaining, I admit it, I was literally waiting the class all week! And, the second idea that I would like everyone to know is which in this course we did two tests, three seminars, a work about cladistics and the rest were group works in general (this includes a dissertation/presentation).

The contents which passed us in the class rounds from the Theory of Evolution (this in relation with Charles Darwin, the creationism, the intelligent design) to hominization (and this in connection with apes, the gender Homo, well, almost all our ancestors). All so engaging.
