My Little wonderful device


Hi guys!!! Like every Wednesday I have to tell you anything about me and what I like. Today is the turn of technology. I have to write about what piece of technology I like to use. That’s easy!!!! I love my mp3… it’s so cute and comfortable.

I bought it like three months ago, because the one that I had before was failing, so I decided to send it to the store and they changed it for another.

As I say… I Love my mp3. I can’t live without music… it’s the best thing in the world (for me… obviously). It’s compact and it doesn’t have cables. I use it every day in every time because it’s easy to hide. Seriously I can’t imagine my life without my mp3. It’s always with me… even when I go to sleep.

I don’t feel lonely with it, it’s my partner… it’s with me everywhere and every time, because I always carry it around my neck.

Can you imagine how I love my mp3? Just to give you an idea… I can never pay attention to people who talk to me, because I’m deeply connected to my little, wonderful, device.

I think that’s it for today… It’s clear that I love my mp3 jajajaja. But!!! I don’t love it more than I love my family… and I don’t care if you think that I’m twee, because… guess what… I am!! Jajajajaja.

Take Care and Good night!

A Fabulous Faint!!! =)


Hi guys!!! Today I have to write about my favorite band… but I don’t have one, because there are too many in the world to just pick one, and only one…

I like bands like Kreator, Black Label Society, Megadeth, Seether, Ska-p and… Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, only to mention a few groups that I have in my mp3.

Last December I went with my brother to the Movistar Arena to see Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. My mom and dad bought VIP tickets for us, so we could stay in front of the stage, so near to them!!! It was great!!!

So… they started to play “Manuel Santillán, el León” and the crowd went crazy with the first note. When they were playing the third song I started to feel bad, I couldn’t breathe. I could barely stand on my feet. My brother had to call security and ask for help. They took me to the infirmary and the paramedic brings me help.

After that, I realized that I had missed my favorite song!!! “Demasiada Presión”. I wanted to go outside and shout out loud, sing, jump, and do all the things that you do when you’re in a concert. When I got my strength back, I helped the paramedic with her math homework. It only took me a few minutes.

I know what you’re thinking… She lost the whole concert!!!!! Guess what… it wasn’t like that… I went back when they were playing the sixth song.

What can I say?? It was fun, I liked it very much, I spent a great time (except for the faint) but I’m still pissed off. I think that if it wasn’t for the faint it could have been a lot better.


That's all!! take care and good night! =)

Killing bastards =)


Hello guys!!! Today we have to write about our favorite movie. That’s a problem for me, because I don’t have a favorite one, but I can tell you about the last one I enjoyed. It’s “Inglourious Basterds” by Quentin Tarantino.

I watched it after the earthquake, when everything was going back to normal. My brother and I were in the living room with the notebook and decided to watch a movie, so we chose a Tarantino film.

It’s a very funny movie. In some way Tarantino makes fun of a painful period in the history of mankind… I mean, the World War II.

The movie takes place in France, and intertwines the lives of all the characters in it. It’s dynamic, so is difficult to get bored. Tarantino knows how to mix the tragedy with the comedy and get a masterpiece, at least for me.

Brad Pitt appears in the film as Aldo “el apache”, the leader of an anti Nazi group named “The basterds”. They have one, and only one mission… kill Nazis.

The film won an Academy Award for Christoph Waltz as the best supporting actor, for his interpretation as a SS officer, named Hans Landa.

I can say that the movie has an unexpected end... I think that it was a great end! An end that only Quentin Tarantino can make work. I recommend the film, you won’t be disappointed.

That’s all for now…

Goodbye!! And Take Care!! =)

"Hard Cony" =)


Today I want to tell you about a journalist that I admire. Her name is Constanza Santa María. She was born in 1973, a few months before the Coup d’état. She studied at Universidad Católica de Chile and graduated as a journalist in 1995. She started as a reporter in the channel of the university (Canal 13), after that she worked writing in the newspaper “El Mercurio” until 1997, time that she returned to Canal 13.

In 1999, she got the Fullbright scholarship, to do a master in the University of Columbia, until June of 2000. While she was studying in Columbia, she won an award for a documentary about the Islas Vieques in Puerto Rico. Up to the day she’s still working in Canal 13 as a leader in the morning news.

I like her because I think that she is one of the best journalists in the country. She is smart, sincere but, above all, she is straight with people, and that’s make her an interesting person. Her style to interview is unique and I think that she is an example to follow.

That’s all for today, I apologize if my presentation was boring…

Good night! And take care!

The earth is shaking!!


Hello my friends… I’m back!!! =)
Today I want to tell how I lived the earthquake of the past February 27th.
I was in my house with my family (dad, mom, brother) and a friend of my brother, who is a part of the family to us.
My dad arrived from Concepción two hours earlier than the earthquake hit the country and left that city devastated.
When the earthquake started we were luckily all awake so we could act really fast to get to a safe zone just in time before the lights went out.
While the earth was shaking beneath us, I felt like I was in Fantansilandia, honestly it was a little fun for me but only for a few seconds, after that I stated to get worried. Meanwhile my brother and his friend were holding to my parents very tightly. They were too scared; this is was our first earthquake!
When it all happens, we were to check how everything in my house was and my dad went out to help our neighbours. It was a long night because we didn’t know anything about our relatives who were travelling during the earthquake, which was worrying.
About that night, I must say that was one of the most terrifying experiences for all the Chileans who lived in the disaster zone.

That’s all for now! Good night!! and take care!!
