A big turtle in Santiago

Hello people of the world!!!

Today I’m going to talk about a really current and creative topic, Transantiago. This is the new transport system implemented in 2007 causing a great controversy because it was imposed without an appropriate design. At the beginning, people said the old system was better, because the new routes of the buses make them walk a lot to arrive to the bus stops and they were very slow.

The old system was very disorganized, the bus drivers didn’t have any respect to the students. But some advantages of the old system were that sometimes when you didn`t have money you could ask the driver if he could ride you for less money, but that was overcome for the new system because now you just can pass without paying. Another advantage of the old system was the speed, because the old buses competed for the passengers and the streets became true race roads. The old system was more dangerous but faster than Transantiago. Now the disadvantages of the old system were many, as I said before it was more dangerous than the new one and the buses were very old, the new buses are very modern. The old system didn’t have any regulations, it was disorganized and pollutant, not as the new system.

On the other hand, Transantiago, called “transantiasco” as well, has generated new problems in the society, especially for women who are frequently harassed in the crowed waiting rows and in the subway, they “suffer” groping by degenerated men, who haven’t been satisfied by their wives and search satisfaction in these places.

Finally, I would improve the speed and the frequency of the new buses, that’s all. Bye bye.

Around the world


Hi everybody, today I’m going to talk about the country I would like to visit, so I’ll describe it first, I’m going to explain why I like that country and finally I’m going to tell which country is. Well , this country is very touristic because it gives much importance to the culture in all its forms especially to the painting. This country has the most importants museums, an example is the Louvre whose collection is the richest in the world. Its principal attraction is the Eiffel tower that is the most recognizable structures in the world. Another important element of this country are its wines and the croissant, finally this country is known like la terre de l’amour.
On the other hand, I wouldn´t go just for vacations, I would like to study there, as this country gives so much importance to arts in general. I would like to study circus arts in the Centre National des Arts du Cirque de Châlons, in Champagne a city of this country. There I may learn how to combine the community psychology with the circus. Besides, since I was a child I like this country so I would like to live there because its living conditions are very high. So don`t you guess yet which country am I talking about?. (in case you couldn’t guess yet, you should check you I.C) I’m talking about France !!!!.

New year, new experiences

Well I`m here again after a long time without writing (by the way a confortable time), today I`m going to talk you about my life during the first term of this year. Well I can tell you that I started with the specialization part of my career. I study psychology so I had to study different subjects, among them I studied Communitaran and forensic psychology, I liked them so much. The first one is about different social problems from the perpective of the people involved in the problems. This is to help them to explore their opportunities to resolve their problems, The second one is about problems such as sexual crime victims, intrafamily violence, etc.
On the other hand, the last semester I started to teach silk in a “okupa” called “akí”, the silk is an areal circus discipline that I’m practicing for three years, besides I started to go to the gym and practice comtemporany dance to complement my abilities in silk. I won a scholarship that gives my fourty five thousand pesos to help a little girl in the school. Finally I finished a very good relationship with my partner because I’m really inmature and I couln’t control my personality, so that was my semester I hope you like it, bye bye.
