Chile's bicentennial year

This year is special for our country Chile because we celebrate 200 years the independence and republican country.
The last September 18th we commemorated an important landmark of our history: the beginning of the process of independence by means of the formation of the First Cabinet Meeting.
Chile's bicentennial year is a reason to celebrate and reflect about whom Chilean people are? and What the progresses that we have had as nation are?

To beginning, I will give you some information about our nation. Chile has more 17.000.000 habitants that are distributed in 15 regions along of the territory.
We have along the country different ethnic groups that increase the diversity of our people and the habits.
All this allow us to show to the world the great variety and diversity of foods, traditions and other things that characterize the different areas of our country.
With this we can show an image that whom the Chilean people are and since this we can ask us how the foreigners see us?
Chilean people consider that they are supportive, happy and hard-working.
The negative aspects are the unpunctuality and some are liars.
The foreigners think that the Chilean people are cheerful, attentive and that we have a big fortitude to confront the different situation and problems as the earthquake that affected the last 27th february or the heroic story of 33 trapped miners in The Mine San José.

For other hand, we can check the advances in the different areas as health and economy and the new challenges in the future.
In the health we have had good progresses because in 2005 the president of Chile Michelle Bachelet announced the creation of a plan called AUGE that covered the treatment of 69 pathologies. This plan is a public healthy regulations that guarantee the access to promotion, protection and recuperation of the health.
In the economy Chile has explanded its boundary to other country in differents continents as Europe or Asia where has signed differents trades agreements.
In addition Chile has increased its incomes through the mining industry or exportations of fruits and wine.

Even we have new challenges and goal in all the areas for to be a good country.

A lot of people consider that travel is a good idea to relax and know a new places, overcoat in the holidays when the families or friends plan where to go.
In my case, I have had good lucky and good opportunities to know other countries and cities.


With my family have traveled some holidays to Santiago by car and we have known differents regions of the north of Chile.
In the studios tour I traveled with my classmates to Iguaçú Falls for 1 week. In addition, we knowed Salta in the north of Argentina where we practice rafting. If you enjoy live the adrenaline, I recommend it you!

But up to now my best trip was when I traveled with my family to Paris where we lived one year for the job of my dad.

Movies

Hello everybody! Today I’m going to talk about a topic that for some people is very interesting and fascinating; even there are some people that are fanatical: this is “The Films”.

Who have not seen a film? I think that a little of people can answer no to this questions.
For me the films are a form to relax me and have a good moment with my friends or family. All depend to the kind of the movie. My kinds of films that I like are the comedy and the action movies. In some opportunities I like to watch drama or children’s films.

In the last period I have not very time to go cinema, but I would like to watch some movies that are in hoarding in this moment as “All a labor” or “Vampires suck”. I believe that when I finish the university I will go to the cinema.

One of the movies that I liked was “The Hangover” by Todd Phillips. Is a comedy about a stag party that finish very, very bad. Two days ago of the wedding, Doug, their best friends Phil y Stu and his future brother in law Alan go to The Vegas by car to celebrate his stag party unforgettablely. But when they wake to the next day, with a infernal headache, they don’t remember nothing. The luxurious room in the hotel where they were staying is totally destroyed it and the fiancé is missing. They must reconstruct the last night and discover in the mess that they're involved.

Myths of the brain

Hello everybody! Today I am going to talk about the myths in relation to the brain.

In some opportunities we have listed for example that we use only the 10% of our brain when we do an activity.
Well through this blog I will try to give an answer.

In my opinion I think that this myth is false because when we do something we use differents organs. Never we utilize an organ to do something. An example for this situation is when we drive a car. We need the vision, the movements in ours arms and legs, the coordination; we must to pay attention and react before an unforeseen.
For this reason I believe that we can not use only the 10% when we do differents activities.
In the class with the Dr. Maldonado he said that this myth was false and the argument that he used to justify it was by means of imagens of computerised tomography or scanners. This imagens showed that in differents situation the brain activate differents areas. For example the occipital side is the region for the vision or the temporal side is the region for the language. For that reason we use more of the 10% all the time.
Even while we sleep our brain is active in some region.

Therefore it is very important that we take care our brain because is one of the fundamental organs to trigger the differents processes, movements and functions in all the systems of our body.

Stress and work

Hello everybody! Today I am going to talk about stress and their relation with work.
Nowadays all the people say that is stressed, but what mean to be stressed?
The experts say that the stress is a physiology condition of the organism. Is a mechanism of defense to confront a menacing situation.
The stress is a natural answer for survival, but in some cases converts it in pathology.
About this reason is very important that we recognized this signs and we made the appropriate changes in our life.
What are the stressful factors that trigger the stress? Well the most important are the external factors as pressure group or frustration. In addition, we find other factors very important like the responsibility in the work and the decisions that the people must take in their jobs.
And what are the common symptoms that you can perceive in a stress? We have a long list with different symptoms. Some of them are:

- Headache
- Nauseas
- Stomachache
- Indigestion
- Hypersensitivity
- Low concentration

- Insomnia
And hold on

All these symptoms can get involve and develop a clinic profile that we know stress.
The stress we can saw in the work. The people in high positions have the conflict between the need of result and the necessary resources for obtain them, mainly time and money.
And the employees have the pressure to make a good work, efficient and productive.

If you have stress you need make some changes in your life and overcoat to BE HAPPY!

My favourite get away

Hello everybody!

How are you? I believe that you are very eagers because the September’s holidays approach already and this is the best reason to get away to that special place where you relax and enjoy oneself.

Therefore today in my blog I’m going to talk about my favourite get away.
Well after I have arrived to Santiago, I think that my favourite get away is the city where my family is: Iquique.


Now I appreciated all the special things that this city can give me.
Nowadays I go twice or three times during the year, because the distance between Santiago and Iquique is 1800 km.! Not very close that we say.
For this reason, when I go there, I enjoy to the maximun the landscape, the beach and the clear air.

Iquique offers to the visitor a calm city with beautiful beachs and temperatures very nices during all year.
In my opinion, the best of the city is the beach because when I am there, I feel that I am in other place, far of the city and the conglomeration. This place give me peace and serenity. I can “recharge my batteries” and find with myself.
Other thing that I love it is the marine food as a fresh fish and the exotic fruits, for example, mango, guayaba and maracuyá.


Finally I recommended this city for her contrast between sea and desert, for the beachs and the sports that you can practice and because you will have a great stay.
