Post 9: Changes to my study program

Hi! Classmate

The topic for today is the change I would like to do to my study program. I study anthropology and I like very much the program that has the career.
If I have to change something of the study program in the basic cycle (that lasts the first two years of the career) I would shorten the subjects related with the specialties, like archeology and physic anthropology, maybe that’s because I like social anthropology, but I think those subjects are too specific for the first year, and then you forget all that, because you don´t use it.
In the advance cycle - in the specialization- I like very much the program, because you don´t have to take subject obligatorily, but you have to choose between a series of subjects, you only have to
comply with certain lines. The main lines are: methods, anthropological theories, apply anthropology, socio-cultural anthropology, ethnologies and one complementary of your choice.
For example, in the line of methods, you have to complete four subjects, but you can choose between ethnographic writing, qualitative methods, quantitative methods, visual, ethnographic,
qualitative analysis software, etc. So, you have a range of possibilities to choose and you can build your career according to your likes.  In the career don´t use usually technologic elements, but lately there are some elements.
In general, if you are organized the workload it´s not too hard, but you have to know you would be many hours reading so you have to love reading, it´s fundamental. Finally if you do everything in time, you can finish the career in 5 years. The teachers are kind most of the time if you go to the class and you try to learn.
The faculty now it´s big and have many places to hangout and study, you can go to the library or the hall, maybe the cafeteria or the yard.

That’s all for today

Regards!

    In my career something similar happens, in the first years you have to take too many obligatory subjects. I agree with you that I often forget its content

Post 3: T.V. Series, the boom of our time

Good day fellows, Today I like to talk about the series. Lately the series are the trending topic everywhere. If you dont see one, you dont have anything to talk in meetings and parties, you´re a outsider. The internet and the “netflix” are contributed a lot to this phenomenon.  Most people dont watch open TV anymore, it´s more simple dowload all the season into your computer, and dont have to wait a week for knowing what happend. In the digital age nobody want (or have the time) to wait, everything have to be right now. There´s all kind of series, for all the tastes and preferences. Drama, mistery, romantic, action, comedy, triller, no genre is left behind. But, of course are the favorites, like Game of thrones, or the classic, like friends. My favorite series in the las time, it´s Sherlock Homes, a police genre, inspired in the novel of Conan Doyle. It´s perfect, have everything and it´s so fun, I really recomend it to you. You all ready know, if you want clear y...

Post 10: English language

Hi, dear classmates Today is the last day that I´ll writing this blog, because English finish next week, it´s a little sad, but also great because it´s mean that we´re finish another year in university, well done for us! The English class was great to me, I feel that I learn so much because it make you practice constantly, and that’s what you need for learn a language. I think that I improved my writing, my compression and my vocabulary (it´s not perfect, but is acceptable). But most important I don’t have shame of doing it and try, even when I do wrong. I was surprise to myself when I could read a anthropology paper in English, that´s huge. Maybe that´s something we can do in the class, working in texts related with ours career, because the vocabulary is so specific, and is useful for what we do. But, It´s was funny written here in the blog, it´s dynamic and you can see the work of all your classmates. Another thing I like was the listening, it´s like a game, so fun. ...

Post 8: Summer Holidays

With the strength of the sun Today I have another opportunity to speak about carnivals, because my plans for this year summer holidays it´s related with that. I´m have to plan travel with my boyfriend and another friends to the North of Chile, for the Andean carnival “with the strength of the sun”. We want to go because we participate in company who present their art in the carnivals of Santiago, who call “The swirl”. The carnival last 3 days, from 26th to 28th of January, and the idea is going to do the networks for we can participate next year. It´s difficult been part of this carnival, because it´s only for Andean companies, but all the years they invite one company of another style and we hope can be us. I have never been to this carnival, but according to what I know it´s amazing. Many Andean companies parade down the street of Arica, they coming to all the country and even from others countries. You can see companies conformed of hundreds of people with flashy cloths...
