technology in my life

Today is the last post I do in this blog, so I will finish writting a brief essay about the technology I used during this year in some subjects or in my house in relation with the university and if really it help me for improve my performance in the tests and in my knowledge about some things in relation with my career, physical therapy. In the high school, I never use any type of object associated with technology, although in some subjects like physics or biology were necessary, that because my college was a bit poor, then haven´t opportunities to buy technology tools and in that years I haven´t got computer in my home.
When I entered to the university, my parents bought me a notebook because they thought could be a necessary tool in my university life and it has really be very important, because all
the group works I need use programs like microsoft word o power point and share information with other group members via messenger; the vast majority of my classes can be downloaded through a university site and so I can read it directly; other things I can do are:clarify questions about things a little more difficult, read scientifics articles that help me a understand better some structural and functional aspects of the human body. Being objetive, in the university I only has using some technological tools, in histology we needed use microscopes for see the tissues at the celular level and lately in functional anatomy, we use machines to measure blood pressure, the amount of air expired or the amount of hemoglobin circulating in the blood. Another technological aspect of the university is using a card for the library and so I can order the books or that managers know if I'm relate on the repayment of a text.
To finish I want to say I think the university has aspects that improve in technology and make this faculty a much more associated with technological tools, for example should buy new computers and good quality or the differents careers need specific tools according to your needs and what they learn in theirs career. So I think the technology play a important role in this university phase and I believe will be vital during the five year of the career and during my profesional life.

the future and phisical therapy

hi ¡¡¡ Now I´m going to write about the challenges in my career, physical therapy in Chile and in the world. In this century, technology plays a key role in any profession and for a physical therapist working with the patient in a direct way remains the most important thing, but the tools used in the treatment ( for the professional to improve any injury or illness become specialized to pass the years and so provide a better service to people; some machines are very expensive to pay it for health services in this country, for that sometimes physical therapists have to work with the maximum of the imagination and give the maximum quality with very few resources, unlike other countries with more resources and can pay machines and perhaps offer a better quality of service, but I repeat that for a physical therapist the most important thing is like he works directly with the sick person.
This career always have had a big contact with the patient, but the room to work

my faculty isn´t perfect

Hello¡¡ today I´m going to talk about the some problems my faculty has got to improve...
To begin, I will say some problems in relation with the infraestructure: this faculty is very old and it seem a hospital ( many friends told me that), I think should be revamped a bit and give it a more modern aspect like some other faculties like FEN o Beaucheff; areas to rest a while are very small, only the CES and some green areas, but they are small places and in the CES microwave should work all or have more comfortable chair or have more games to entertain a moment.
During the class of my GFC, the data isn´t to the hour y then the class relate and the teacher have to teach the subject very quick; in other classes most important, the microphone don´t work or the teacher arrive late; lack of coordination sometimes occur with the original schedule, I mean, sometimes in the schedule is put there are class and the teacher is not arrive , or in other warn us one day before that on the schedule they forget that there are classes that day. To improve that only must have an organization among all who participate in activities and with regard to technology should buy new computers, more books for the library, I think should have more kiosks and definitely the faculty need a casino where the food is better, because now the food they give is not very good.
I think that some things improve, the benefit would be for everyone and obviously the students would feel more comfortable with their environment and with the faculty.

hobbies of the life

Hello again, now I going to write about the things I like do in my free time, but in relation with the hobbies I practice in my life.
When I was a child, I was a person liked collect some things and do things more related with the word hobby, but with the time I think I've stopped doing most constant hobbies in my life; when I was six -seven years old I loved play Super nintendo, go out to play with the friends, collecting albums, stickers and other things that were coming in the candies that I ate. That hobbies helped you be more sociable with other children, share things and exchanging it.
Now in mi life of the university, I play table tennis or taca-taca, for first time I go to the gym two time for week for get better physical ability and a healthier life, I feel this has been one of the best things of studying physical therapy. When I´m in the notebook, I like watch in youtube trailers of many movies, old or new movies (some trailers I see it many times), I feel the trailers always will be the best in a movie and can tell us if it was or will be a good or bad movie, too I like listen the soundtrack of the movies. Obviously I also see many movies of all types: comedy, war, drama, love, science fiction, fantasy, etc, although inthe TV some movies repeat them all the time and not renew the programming. Some TV series I did not lose any chapter are LOST and Grey´s Anatomy.
Other thing I do sometimes is go to the church to meet with the friends.
Finally the hobbies are a part important in the life any person and they represent a part of your personality.

summeeeeeeee¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

Hi, this time I´m going to write about my holidays.
To begin I will say every year since I was a baby, my family in mid-February lease houses in the central coast between ten to fifteen days to enjoy our holidays in big. We always went many persons: grandmother, aunts, uncles, cousins, my brothers and other persons.....
The places they chose was El Quisco, Algarrobo, El Tabo, Costa Azul, Isla Negra or or near these places ...really that days were fantastic: in the morning get up early, walk to the beach (actually we walked a lot), to swim in the sea all day, to enjoy the sunny days, or to plan trips coldest days, then we came home with the satisfaction of having pass a great moment and also enjoy those warm nights on the beach, laughing, talking or playing. In the end of holidays we did a barbacue where we remembered the great moments of our trip y play the 'secret friend' ... really I would like go out to have my holidays and start to enjoy it, but there is still a bit to finish my first year of university. Moreover the days I´m in Santiago, I try to meet with friends, going to parties, and enjoy the three months to the maximum one has to disconnect of the world.
This summer I still really do not know where I will go, but there are some travel conversations with friends and family very interesting to know some parts of chile: with my friends of the universityt we have thinking to go we have thinking going to the house in Coihueco of Tamy ;is a good option because we would know places we have never visited and we save money.
My family have thinkink the next year, we will go

summary

Hello¡¡¡¡¡ today I´m going to write about an scientific article of the The guardian´s newspaper in relation with my carrer, physical therapy.
Researchs done by swiss and american scientists about paralysed rats gave the result that across a rigorous plan of rehabilitation, the rats could return to have the aptituds to walk; the rats couldn´t walk because they were presenting a problem to the spinal and so the spinal cord couldn´t received information from the brain to make the movements, therefore was impossible to have a neurological contact with the muscles.
However, the scientists found out that a mix of drugs, muscle stimulation and treadmill exercises helped the rats could have the capacity to walk again. The treatment was that the neural circuits that were 'off'to return to normality gradually after stimulations by tiny electrodes plus the other things named.
The results show the rats during the first weeks, they couldn´t move their hind legs at all, but the next weeks, they could stand up and walk almost normal.
This results some day would can be applicable to human beings, give them many benefits to their lives.
I hope this newspapers give to the world so good scientifics articles to can read and learn.

santiago ¡¡¡¡¡

Hi again, this week I will annotate places of santiago to visit for foreign tourists. These places represent the Chilean culture and they will can to learn new things about the people of our country.Here a list of some places and activities:
-If you want to know important places for the chilean history, I recommend to visit the plaza de armas(the point zero of santiago), the 'palacio de la moneda' or the templo de maipu (place very important, because here Chile defeated the Spanish people and achieve the independence. All this places are national monuments.
- If you like nature then santiago give you some alternatives: some hills will show you a down town area like the cerro Santa Lucia and cerro San Cristobal (this hill presents great vegetation and is a very beautiful place to make sports like run or running a bike). Also on the outskirts of the city there are other areas like the cajon del maipo or Pomaire. If your you never knew the snow or you like the sports related to the snow, then our mountain range is the perfect place to combine enterteinment, nature and rest, so you can go to la Parva or Farellones.
-If you like know the culture,then you need to visit some museum very interesting in the city like the museun Bellas Artes, el Contemporaneo or the de La Moneda. Also is the Pablo Neruda´s house in the barrio Bellavista or the Parque O´Higgins.
-If You are a fanatic of the food in Stgo there are a lot of restaurant to eat, especially in Bellavista. There are restaurants of domestic food or fast food
I hope this words some day help to the foreing that visit CHILE.

music¡¡¡¡¡

Music hasn´t got an important role in my life. I don´t need music like other people, I prefer to see movies when I am in my home, although sometimes I would like to spend my time to know some singers or groups to speak about more things with people.
The kind of music is very different, I hear CALLE 13, COLDPLAY. BLACK EYED PEAS and some songs of reagguetton. I get the songs of these groups on internet from youtube, so I have my notebook freer from other programs.
I listen to music when I am alone in my home to put up all the volume and when I have nothing to do, moreover I use it when I am happy.
But I like the soundtrack of many movies, because these lyrics are very good, each one has its own style and totally represents the topic that the movie wants to convey, some soundtracks I like are of these movies: dances with wolves, meet joe black, eternal sunshine of a spottles mind, juno or slumdog millionaire.
So I could live without music in my life, although I hope to go to the concert of coldplay in chile maybe in the month of november.
Other thing is that I don´t buy CDs because they are expensive.
Finally I think, many persons are very happy listen to their favourites singers or groups, buy the CDs or go to the concert.
Maybe some day I too have this ´fever´ for music, but now that haven´t passing

TRANSANTIAGO

In Santiago more than six million persons live, is a number very high because this city is very small in comparison to other cities with inhabitants's minor quantity,so a very good system of transport is necessary for the mobilization of thousands of persons around the town every day. Two and a half years ago( summer of two thousand seven) the system of transport revolutionized in the capital, coming the transantiago to our lives: of a great quantity of buses circulating for every part we pass only some crossing the most importants streets; the subway transformed in a fundamental prop to support the ´solvency´ of the system, but the transantiago did the daily collapse of the subway in the peak hours, unleashing the inconvenienceof their passengers; the frequency of buses down drastically especially in the places more perípheral becoming chaotic initially, but now this topic already this almost solve; people late to come to almost all the places, due to the transfers that are needed to travel. Something positive was the implementation of the card bip as mean of payment because there are less assaults to the drivers.
My experience is regular, on one hand for the principal street where I live circulated many different buses, now only two pass doing necessary to have to do transfer to go everywhere; something positive is that now I use much more the subway because before the transantiago I only used the buses.
I think, passing the time transantiago will improve and become a great system for our lives, but before the managers must put more new buses circulating and to control better the problem and to ask the people for his opinion about the topic. I hope some day feel us proud of our system of transport and the problems have been left behind.

my dream place

hello again¡¡¡¡ this time I will write about the place in the world I want to visit sometime in my life, although now I think about many countries or towns, I will choose only one: ITALY. This country I would like know it complete: the urban north and the rural south. I feel Italy has got a lot of interesting things to discovery: the culture, the people, the food ( its famous noodles), the landscape and many very important and very known cities, like Rome, Milan, Turin or Venecia. Too I want to visit the square of san Pedro in The Vaticano because I believe I can know most of the catholic religion and of the italian history.
Since some years ago, I realized in the high school that Italy has got one of the most important cultures in the world, developed across the centuries. In Italy was born big artist of the world history like Miguel Angel, Leonard da Vinci or Rafael that during the Middle Ages they revolutionized Europa with their paintings.
Moreover in Italy there are many beautiful places to enjoy like the roman Coliseum, the trips in ´gondola´, the Pisa tower or Florencia.
So some day, I am sure I will go and I will very happy to know my dream place.

the first months

Hi, long time ago I didn´t write, but now I will start to do new things in my blog. To begin I want to say about my experience in this first month of my university life, the time for me has passed very fast, but I think I have enjoyed every moment in my house with my family, in the university ( despite the fact that the university can be very absorbing) and when I had the opportunity to meet with my friends having a good time. However I feel that now the obligation with my studies is bigger that when I was in the high school, but too in my career I have met very important and nice people and now they are my friends.
During this time I realized that studing in the university isn´t easy, so sometimes I have to study until very late. Although I feel tired I think all the effort I do now, some day will have very good results.
I learnt new things in the diferents subjects I had in this first semester: in the anatomy I learnt some bones, muscles of the face or of the head, and in histology I learnt the diferents cell in the tissues of the human body.
When I had free time, I tried to disconnect of the university doing others thing like go out with my friends, to talk for MSN or simply to rest in my house.
To finish I want to say the university life is very hard, but I´m sure that doing the rights thing this years will be unforgettable.

sir ken robinson

Sir Ken Robinson talks us about how education kills creativity. He says to us that somehow we all born being pure, without fear of expressing us, but in the way we grow up we start to acquire fear to be wrong, and for that we try to live in a way that we don’t have to take risk and we always play safe. Sir Ken Robinson tell every educational system around the world is focused in teaching subjects mathematics or sciences that is to say giving knowledges to the students, but they don’t worry too much about teaching music or dance, because the educational system was implemented to create people productive in the industries, so they didn’t favour the things that are unproductive in industries. How this affect on the human creativity? every school try to form students that don’t commit mistakes, they always have to be right, and this has a consequence: we start to fear to mistakes, and this means we don’t think in a free way, we are always thinking if the things that we are going to say or do something must be right, so we start to be afraid of expressing us for the possibility of being wrong, and that’s a brake for the human creativity.This creates people that don’t have too much creativity, because they don’t think in new things but they think in the ways of being productive so they can get a normal and easy life because that’s what is valued in this world, not being creative but being productive.

my ideal job

In the physical therapy there are several area to be able to develop: neurological, respiratory or sports, moreover other alternatives less known as hydrotherapy, hipotherapy, termotherapy or acupuncture.

I´m beginning my carrer in the university and now to take a decision is difficult because I am learning basic things of the health and still I do not know to depth all the areas. But I would like to work with children with neurological problems out of santiago, because the opportunities in regions are very scanty and all these children see diminished their options to improve, because there is not many physical therapiest in the parts most distant of the country, specifically I would like work at the north

But when I graduated, I want to work in a job here in santiago that give me economic stability and independence and so I can some day concrete my dreams and do it reality.

my experience

This year, I made for first time a BLOG in my english subject, for that all I wrote was in this languaje. Now I am going to tell my experience with this blog :
the teacher said to us a topic every week with some questions that I had to answer, some topics I enjoy enough developed it like when I wrote about the my favourite subject or my favourite picture because they allowed me to explain about things very personal in my life, so this blog helped me to remember moments very important and interesting of my life that I had forgetting. But, too other topics was to me very boring like recommend a page that I used very much. But the majority of the topics were fabulous.
Talking with other classmates, to they too like the experience to make a blog, because for everyone was the first time and we could see the other blog and watch things in commun with the other person. Maybe in the future we will continue annotating the things of our lives.
Moreover I have to say, this blog helped me to improve my vocabulary; to use of the gramatic; to know the diference of the some words in the singular and plural form; to use of the present, past and future of the verbs; to learn words related to my career and the technology and the translator of English uses it less.
For last, I think this blog was the best tool and the best thing that passes to me to be in pre-intermediate and I hope in intermediate continue using to improve my language and my vocabulary.
Thank blog =)

my favourite subject

I love this subject since that I was in high school because always I liked all in relation with the human life: this is BIOLOGY. I think this subject is great because show me the complete cycle life of a human being since it is a zygote (to unic cell) up to a complex organism as us. In this moments in the university, I´m learning all the basics things about the cell, Since like it can survive across all it internal mechanisms that estan highly regular some to others for the genes up to some diseases very importamtes for my career, the majority determined genetically, which seems to me to be very interesting, if I some day would want be in the area of the research I will focus in the area of the genes and it consequences in the human organisms because I believe that still there is much for discovering . So I will have got a presentation the next week about the albinism and because of it I feel very happy looking for things of the topic.
In the university the person entrusted to give me the lessons is valeria sabaj, a great teacher, very arranged that her pupils learn in her subject.
In the future I hope have got so good teachers of biology as she for I learn most things.

my future

Hi again, now I´m going to try of imagine my future and think in the things that could pass in my life in five years from now. I would want the things doesn´t pass so fast, but the life going and one has to be preparead. So I think I would like graduated of the career that choose, physical therapy without have spend more years of the necessary thing and really I realize that in this moment would be a person that would survive for myself in this world. Later I could begin to work in any institution that to give me the opportunity to continue learning to become the best professional in the area that I specialize me. So I could start to help with money to my parent and to treat to return a hand to them for everything what they did for me and they can have a best future. But really I hope that I will be happy with the career that I will have and with the jobs and people that I will work.
Personally I want have a great life and try to live it the possible maximum with my family and my friends; maybe I begin to crossing the world or a part of it, for example go to the greek island or to Australia. And other thing would be I assemble money to buy me a car.
Maybe I will be living with my parents in five years from now, but I don´t mind because some day I will have my own house with my family and maybe they too.
I thing everything dream with a perfect future and also think one is the responsable to build his own life and make it very happy

the best

In my career there are people very interesting in the research and advance of the physical therapy to give to the patients with diverse problems (like neurological, respiratory or movement) a better life. However physical therapy, is a career very new inside the area of the health, so only a few person have been outlined.
Because of it I prefer focusing in a great Chilean institution where the physical therapist play a fundamental role in the rehabilitation of many people with diverse physical disabilities: the TELETON.
I think that the physical therapiest who works there present a great sense of humanity to be working with children or young men or women with serious physical or neurological problems

I like physical therapy =)

Hello again, now I´m going to write about the best carrer in the world: physical therapy.

I enter this year to the University of Chile to study physical therapy and it is a career that really I like much because I always was interested in some area of the health to study, but initially I was with small doubts of which career to continue and so finally I choose physical therapy and I believe that it was the best option . I beginning to study I realized that this is what I want to be for the rest of my life because always I wanted to work with children or elders or persons with problems of health and so I be able to try to help them across everything what I am learning.

My picture

Well, this time I´m going write about an picture that I like very much. This picture was taken this summer (in febraury 24th), while we were of holidays in the beach 'El Quisco'. Was the day before we returned to Santiago to come back again to our lives. Really was a good time enjoy with the family all the night the last moments of our travel, singing, dancing, driking, and laughing enough of all the anecdotes that happened to us during that days. So we organized a barbacue to to 'see off' adequately our trip. In the picture you can see to my brother(of green);some cousins, uncles, aunts, and the girlfriends of my brother and cousin .I´m using a blue jacket and I´m next to my aunt of pink, Gloria.Later we went to the beach at 3 a.m. and we did a bonfire with all the sticks that we seize in the way. THAT WAS THE BEST MOMENT.
We were twenty persons coexisting, that house was an madness during the ten days that we were there, moreover the house was not so big, but always we try to respect the spaces of each one for not to provoke problems and so to pass the best of the moments.
And to finish I want to be grateful for all the persons who did of this trip one of the best in my life and to say to them that I love them very much and I hope that for the next year the travel to the southern is much better.

my page of phisical therapy

My favorite page to visit of physical therapy is the: kinetres.blogspot.com.
My classmates said me that this page was very efficient for find out new things about the kinesiology because had word new and pages related to the career.
Moreover this link would could serves for the works and to be contacted with physical therapists by some doubt about the career.
Also there are very good photographies of instruments and the explanation of how they are used correctly in treatment for the muscles, bones, ligaments or tendons.
This page I use it often( three times for week) because it gives me many tools of study and serves me to learn new things and it gives me the opportunity to read very good books.
I it recommend hundred per cent.

MY LAPTOP

My technological favorite piece is my LAPTOP. It is a computer, but mas modern: it is most lewdly and most simply that a desktop and his use can be most personally and I can take it for all parts as for my university or for the friends' house .
My laptop was given for my parents in my birthday ( the last year) when I had eighteen and it was the best gift that I could have received because never I had had a computer, but of all forms I wise to use it.
Since I have it used to use it almost every day but since I enters to the university these times of leisure have diminished so I only use it for really important things.
When I have free time and I´m in my house usually use it for talk with my friends, listen good music or unload great movies ( The last premieres) However sometimes I have to share it with my brother .
When I study with it I make my homeworks, my works in team and individual or unload books for read and understand the matter.
In this times the computer is an indispensable tool for the life of a student, so my life would be most difficult without one
