The Blog's world

I never thought that i was going to make a Blog. It's very funny for me to see me writing my thoughts, my own views about a lot a things, and those words to be watched for anyone. The blogs world it's something very weird for me. Even as a child i wrote in a "Life's diary" i don't have the habit of write about my thoughts. I like the contact with the people, maybe having a nice conversation with a coffee sharing our lifes, but to be written in the red, it's like tho share your life with the world. From the moment i knew that my first blog would be written in english, i felt a nice feeling with this. First, because i really like english, it's a language that i feel a deep conection with it, and it's also a very important tool for the future, both in my diary life, and the professional area.
As sumary of this new experience, i have to say, i liked to express myself trought the blog. Maybe, i won't keep this in the future, i wouldn't create another one, but if i would have to use a tool for being easily watched, almost like publicity, the blog's world is an excellent idea for it.
In fact, in the architectural area, to keep this kind of contact is very interesting and necesary for today, because of the contemporary way to show your works to the "world" (it's only a way to say, that all kind of people can get into your blog).

Beautiful Chile

My mother's family lived in La Serena for a long time; in fact, my mother was born there. Since i was a child, we went to having our vacation time there. I remember the best beach i ever known before (until now), named Peñuelas. Like i was a child, i didn't like the waves, specially when they were so high, because i liked to play in the seashore. Then we went to the center of the city, in the night, there were always games, crafts and shows.We were there by at least, two weeks to rent a house in Coquimbo. Those holidays were the best ones in my life. It's so nice to remember that. However, just because of our economical situation, we went the last 4 years to El Tabo, but they were very good times too. La Serena is a city, but it still hasn't forgotten it's history. It keeps a colonial style in it's main square at the center of the town. In a few year, if i can do it, i want to live there. It is so diferent to Santiago about the way the people lived. There you have life, calm, the ocean so near from you. Or you have the mountains, the valley. I hope i could came back there. It's a dream for me, but it is not imposible to be.

Finding for Nemo

The most unforgettable movie i ever seen before is "Looking for Nemo". A Disney movie that i saw the first time in the cinema and from that moment, it became in to my favourite movie. One reason is because of the sweet topic that it talk about. The real love between a father with his son, the fight for getting into him when he get lost. It's very funny you get laught a lot of times, but the personage that i really loved was Doris. Not only for her way of being, but it also reminds me of my self. "I'm Doris!!" i always say, and that's because i forget everything. My memory is totally empty, my hard drive is limited and because of it i have a lot of problems every day. That movie reminds me, but that's just an anecdote. This film is a very good work between the story and the way to produce it. A very good kind of image. If i had to recommend a movie, this is the one.

THE CITY OF THE FUTURE

Reading about the "Victory City, the city of the future" and watching the images about the Mr. Simpson's proyect, i really don't agree with his proyect. The idea of create a new kind of city, that keeps the vast areas the way they are, our natural food producing land, is very interesting and convincingly; not just as the form that he resolves the problem. Like an architecture student, i'm really worry about this problem. Every time i have to make a project, the way this is gonna impact the actual city is a concern for me. However, the idea of a city within a building isn't the solution i think. I agree in the future we will have to use height like a solution for overpopulation, but all them inside a box named "city" is horrible for natural life. We already have to interact with buildings as part of our life, but Mr. Simpson's idea is an overstatement way of life. He have very good ideas, like transporting solution, but not the same with cafeterias. In Victory city, everyone would eat in one of the large cafeterias rather than cooking for themselves. A large rotating serving counter called the Circl-Serv could feed approximately 16,333 people in only 3½ hours. What about the family moments around the dinner table?.....it isn't contemplated on this way of life.

Anyway, this is only an utopy, maybe in 50 years the solution will be much better than this.

A VERY SPECIAL PIECE OF ART

When i had to choose an important work of art for me, inmediatly came to my mind the word "angels", but not anyone.....but a very famous one. The author of it, is Rafael Sanzio. It was an comissioning of Pope Julius II, surely for his tomb. It name is "The Sistine Madonna", from the Renaissance period. But the most important for me, are angels. That kind of angels are named "puttis" because of their style of chubby angel, with expression and tender pink. I've always liked angels, it's like a very important sign for me, i really feel identified with them. The first time i saw this work of art, was because of the angels. I saw them in a foil in a store and then i started to looking for information about it. The period of art i've always liked is The Renaissance. In that period, all arts were at their peak. Every time i see the foil in my room (i have it hung one the wall) the sweet faces of the angels are a time of tranquility as a journey through time.

Nobel prize for chemistryilluminates disease

Wouldn't be amazing to "see" with our eyes the cell's process and molecular cogs at work? Well, this year, the Chemistry Nobel Prize is for three scientifics ( two of them Americans and the other Japanese scientists) who have been working with the GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein). The GFP is a protein wich was first observed in a speacially jellyfish and it allows to probe nerve cell damage in Alzheimer's disease, cancer progress and HIV infection process. It's use to watch how the cells work , it means, to understand how all the cells components interact with each other.

The cells, in contact with this protein, reveals concentration, movement and the fact of interaction if it is necesary. It can reveals insight of what goes wrong during disease. It's something spectacular if you think about this help for biology studies. The scientists named: Prof. Osamu Shimomura, Prof. Martin Chalfie and Prof. Roger Tsien, were the winners of the prize, which will take an equal share of 10m Swedish kronor.

TELEVISION, What does people think about?

I made an interview to people between 20 and 30 years old about television. About the kind of programs they always watch the average watch series, like Grey's Anatomy, Friends, Two and a half man. It means that the entertainment series are prefered for young people. It have sense if we understand that young people study or work all day, and to arrive home to watch a comedy series is distract and fun. The news were named for all them, and it's because young people have the need of being informed about today. The other question concerned about a critical way to understand television. Most of the interviewees concurred that television today don't contribute for knowledge and culture (speacially national television) and the crime, drama and sex are not good for children because it could distort their minds.
The frequency they watch TV is very little. About their television tastes, the best international actress was Julia Robert and actor was George Clooney. And the best national actress and actor, were Maria Izquierdo and Alfredo Castro. If they would have to choose between to watch their favourite movie in their television very confortable on their beds or to watch it in the cinema with the full surround, most of them prefer the cinema if the movie have a lot of action, but if it is about romance or comedy they totaly prefer their home. And the last question was about the chance of being in the television world, working there, and all them said "i wouldn't work there", because of the private life that you lose.

My favourite piece of technology

If I go back time, my life without my cell phone was totaly normal, i didn't have the need of it. When i had a date with some friend, we used to decide the time of join and there wasn't any problem to arrived there. And if i couldn't arrived there, that person waited for me until he just known that i couldn't be there. Maybe later, i called him to his house and apologize because of my absence. But the life run without any problem.

Today, the life is different. Without a cell phone inside your pocket, you feel empty, like if some part of you stayed at home. My cuestion is: Why do i need a piece of technology named cell phone with me, if i grew up without it?....I had my first cel phone when i was 16 years old. It means, that all my childhood and pre adolescence, was totaly free of it. But now, the first thing i worry to take for going out, is my phone, not even my wallet. It has a logic too, if i forget my wallet, i have a cell phone that could help me to call some one to bring it to me. But if i forget my phone, my wallet wouldn't be a help in that case.

Well, the point is "I NEED THIS PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY!!". When i forget something, when i'm in troubles, when i need an instant help, when i need a piece of advice...there is my cell phone, just for calling some one who could be a support in all those cases.

There isn't a day that i don't use it. At least one call for day, it's the average. My confession is: I can't live without it. Not in this life at least, maybe the other.

My favourit song

Actually, my favourite song is "The Reason" of Hoostabank. The first time i heard it, was in the last summer, when i was having fun with my friends singing karaokes and one melody was this song. At the moment i heard it, i liked, i when i read the lyric, i thought "what a nice song".

It start with like this: "I'm not a perfect person, there's many things i wich i didn't do, but i continue learning, I never meant to do those things to you, and so i have to say before i go....." When you understand the letter you can use not only for your partner, i can be used for any person that you wound before, even you sorry about it, the pain of having hurt that person you feel it for a long time.

Have you ever hurt someone before? How did you feel when it happened? If you could go back time, would you avoid that moment? In my case, i don't remember i had hurt someone, but i was hurt for a person. It's a big scarf that you have to live with, but when you forgive that person, you are released. That's what i did.
