My Blog experience

Hello people! how are you? this has been a long semester, but it finally comes to and end, like all the good things. 
If I have to be sincere, when we started this blog, I hated it. I never had a blog before and i don't  know if i will ever do it for fun but this blog was a nice thing. It was fun to read your friends and partners blogs and post, knowing that all of you have to write about the same. Some times in class you don't get well with the people in there but this class was really fun and nice, you wanted to go and had a good time speaking and laughing (in english pleaseee).
I never had real problems speaking english (you can smile a lot and see movies for practice) but writing was a torture. I have problems writing spanish so you can imagine with english...and i was ashamed about it at the point of don't want to write the blogs because of other people will have to read it...but I'm not ashamed any more, i laugh of my faults and my friends didn't bully me because of that, they help me and i help them C: It was...a good experience.

Best birth day ever

Hello people, how are you? you already have your birthday this year? well if you already have your birthday congratulations, and if you didn't have it i hope it will be awesome c:

In my experience birthdays can be amazing or a truly sad experience and in both cases them are an stressful situation. But there is always one time that everything is perfect , like never before, and that time is the BEST BIRTH DAY EVER.

My best birth day will have to be when i got 18. The week of my birth day is the same week of the birth day of two other friends so is like the whole week partying. It  was a day of happiness. it was friday, it was middle of the spring. i have a date that afternoon, my friends call me and be the night  we had a party and end it swimming my friend pool... i cannot tell you all the crazy things we do that night but it was unforgettable (well.. in fact i don't remember the half of the night...)

My work as an artist.

Hello people...people? Are you people? What is people? What is hello?...today I will talk you about my work as an artist. Well...I’m a painter, that is my specialty, but I have completed two semesters studding foundry and one studding ceramics so I also had made pieces whit that technics. If I have to define my work artistically speaking....I don’t now what I will say. I’m interested in the material form of the painting seen it like a physical phenomenal whit tridimensional experience. I’m also interested in gender themes, in mass behavior and theology. In my work I like to play whit the reality and put the viewer away from his comfort zone without getting them out of it, working with the morbidity of the viewer and in some times playing whit the technic and the aesthetic to make him desire view the piece even if he didn’t want to. That is what I tried whit my work, what I aspire, make them walk in four legs like animals without their knowledge, make them feel something in their bowels…and through that make them more human.

The images below are from one of my foundry works , is the process and making of a piece call " Calzon Anti-violacion " a chastity belt self-impose for women to protected them self because , as you know, is women's fault to go out on streets with her defenseless body parts . I could not fuse it at the end because of money (foundry is really expensive).

EL Chu Chupacabras - Tiro de Gracia

The Chupacabras

Hi People! Today I will talk you about something scary, deeply scary and that still today make some of us cry when the lights are off. When I was a child, me and my sister didn’t watch scary movies, but that didn’t protect us form terrifying creatures, just like the Chupacabras....okay...that’s maybe sound funny and there is even a rap cumbia song named after this monster but when you are 7 years old and you hear that there is something near to the city who likes to eat cows, is smart, maybe an alien and attacks one carabinero...come on! That is freaking scary.

My personal history with the Chupacabras start when my little sister Fran and I go with our parents to a friend’s house. This house was on the limits of the city and when we arrive my sister and I were sleep and my parents decide to leave the kids in the car (them said that we dint want to come out) and go inside the house. When I get awake...it was night, it was dark, my parents were missing and I don’t now were we were. I wake up my little sister and together start to scream our parents name...and them didn’t answer. My sister want to go to the bathroom and we open the door of the car so she can make pee...but when we open it...I hear something on the shadows. It was big, it was bad and it want to eat us. We close the door as fast as we could and crying we laid down on the floor of the car. The thing move outside until....my mom open the door! The scary monster, the evil Chupacabras, was Trabuco, the big and old nice pet dog. My parents never forget themselves for this and remember this night (it were like....15 minutes?) like the night we face the Chupacabras. 

Hi People! Well  as you now, we are starting the semester, and that minds something…false expectations! We have to face it, we all make promises like:

-Never late again!-

Or

-Never again late on a test-

Or

-Never again be late  on a test and forgot my lunch! – And we can go on and on…

The point of new semesters are make things right, and make things right also minds ben realist. You will be late (more than you will be on time), you will miss a couple of classes, you will ask your friends for money so you can lunch and never pay (even if you tried...) and not all your works will actually work, you will fail. You will fail in to many things, things in what you will put your hardest wills and hopes, and you will fail. Also you are going to fail in things you didn’t tried, in things you should not fail and in things you should tried not to fail, BUT IT IS FINE.

You are not perfect, you are not made all of victories, you are made of mistakes and unexpected wins to. When you know that you are not always going to shine, is easy to accept mistakes and go on. That is what fails/mistakes/non victories are for, they are there, outside waiting for us to come and face them.

This Photo

This Photo is more than it looks, there are a Momy, a Dady and tree little (or not so little) girls, and that is my family (we also have a Dog named Perrito). We take this picture on our family vacations, in the same house that we did when we were young and since then we go to that house. It’s almost like we didn’t go vacation if we don’t go that house. The house is in front of mi grand mother’s apartment when she, my mom and my aunt live there. Is in the middle of Viña del Mar, and right next to the park were my mom and my dad study together wen them were young&wild hippie future lawyers (what a contradiction) and that is the same park were my sisters and I play and laugh (today we still play…but we are no longer aloud to ride the pony’s). That picture make my smile every time I look at it, and it’s kind of personal joy or a personal joke between our family because there are we, laughing and having a good time, and we don’t ned to be super expressive on the photo, just normal (natural) that’s the joke, we have so many stories on that one picture, that them cannot be take on one single picture. 

In order from rigth to left:

Fran (my little sister) Papi Mabri(my dad Mauricio) Sofi (my big sister) Doña Adela (my mom Adela) and Me (whit long hair c':)

Hello People! how are you today? are you hungry? (i'm allways hungry...specially when i'm at university...) So let's talk about  recepes and food (food is good, food is life). Bacically, recepies are wais to improve your normal food, example; apples are good, caramel is good and puff pastry is good, but if you put them togeter (Oh La la). Some recepes are easier than others, and some just need a little bit of expertise to be done. I like to cook, more iben if is for share or if is for some one else, if is only me...is boring. I have a lot of cooking web sites, i have a folder only for that in my computer and through time i had realize that the best cooking blogs or sites are the one in english...why? Becouse gringos had master the easy-grossly-fasty way of cooking, like this recepe that is at the same time my proud and my shame...are Chocolate and Bacon Cookies (yeeeaaa...new national dish...my grand mother will be so proud) You are gona need:

500 gr of flour (whit baking powder or whitout...whit is more fluffy)
500 gr of chocolate coating (yeaaaa you are gonna need all that chocolate)
200 gr of oat flakes
150 gr of suggar (brown suggar pleaseeee)
1/2 of a cup of almonds
50 gr of bacon (all the bacon you want (come on! this is from Gringolandia.. The land of bacon!))
400 gr of butter (use less at the beginning, like 250 gr and if you need more for get the correct texture you add more)

We start whit all of our ingridients ready, the butter must be soft and creamy and the flour sieving.
The bacon most be cook and crispy before wee put it on the mix so we cut it in little pices (not very smooth) and put it on a hot pan (no oil) until it is gold and pretty. When wee have our bacon ready wee must  slice our almond (again, not very smooth) and chop the chocolate, you need to cut the chocolate until it can ad to the mix, like little pices not biger tan 1x1 cm cubic.
When you get the almonds, the chocolate ande the bacen ready, is time to get dirty.
Cut the butter (the first 250 gr) in cubes and mix it whit the flour, the oat and the suggar. The result must be a creamy pastry, not dry mix, if you feel it is to dry add more butter. When you get the perfect texture is time to add the chocolate, the almonds and the bacon.

When it get all mixed make little balls whit a spoon and put it on the oven tray spacing one from another and bake it for 20-25 minutes (you better stay and look it time to time to be shure) and...TA DA!!! Chocolate and Bacon crispy cookies (do it like..ones a year for your healt and your heart)

Hello people, today I'm gonna talk you about my life so we can get closer. I was born in Santiago de Chile, in Clinica Alemena (the old one...) on November 4th 1993 and i'm the second of three sisters. My family members are my dad Mauricio, my mom Adela, my older sister Sofia and my little sister Fransisca. My dad is a lawyer yet he works at Municipalidad de La Pintana and my mom is a Judge, my older sister is a anthropologis and she works with childrens from the street, finally my sister Francisca want to study ingeniery at renewable resources (so...we are committed with public service). Before i enter this university i study at a school named Colegio La Fontaine (yes, it was a school from La Gran Logia Masonica de Chile...), while I was at school i have hobbies like draw and paint....but also i love to dance, i dance flamenco, contemporary dance and a little bit of ballet, but my favorite was flamenco, and i dance with my sister's making like a small dance company (Invited me a dance).

Hi people, today i'm gonna talk you about sometings that leave a mark in my childhood, the tv series i' used to watch. I was born in to a family very traditional in some ways so there was only one tv in all the house and we were three sisters so basically it was a big fight over the remote. Any way, like my little sister and i like similar things we ruled, and some of these series were on air in channels that are not any more on tv (sad true) there was like The Princess from the Nilo, in Discovery kids (before it become a baby-focus channel) or Monster Ranger fron Fox Kids (my first ever seen anime!) there were also the american animation like He-man (you can't say it without the rhythm) Thunder Cats and the old fashioned like Godzilla and The Space Gosth. The anime in the other side where much more easy to watch because them were in open tv, i remember Ranma 1/2, the one whit the transgender dude, Mikami the gost hunter, the one whit the almost naked girl, Marco, the one whit the dude that was abamdoned by his mom oh and Marmalade Boy, the one whit the girl ande the boy which parents go singers and result to fall in love and be brothers...ohhh such a god histories for kids. This series (and more) where so inocent when we were young...ore may be when we were young we were more inocent? I dont know the answere, i just enjoy it.
