Alicia goes in the car

2012-01-27T11:03:00.001-08:00

Hello classmates and Miss, today I will write my last post in the blog, the topic is about enviroment and I believe that this topic is very important especially because our earth is terribly damage with our own hands for the new technology and excessive exploitation of natural resources in another things.

I think that the problem is that people have not conscience about imminent destruction of our planet , other problema is that in the school have not clases about the important of take care the enviroment then they don’t take conscience about that.

I must admit that I don’t have very good practices for take care the enviroment because I don’t know so much about recycling, and I smoke too, but I try to clean places that I stay, for example, I never throw it the garbage on the ground and I picked it up off the floor.

I usea the public transport and my bike too or I walk in my legs if the distance is not very long.

I prefer use that forms of transport because I hate the cars because thaey are danger and they pollute the enviroment so much.

I don’t join in any eco-organisation but I do other things for enviroment for example I am vegetarian and I inform about the fight for animals in blogs, books, web pages and facebook too.

I think that in Santiago people especially politicians don’t confront the issue because it is not advisable for they, Because this stops the frenetic globalization.

Holidays

2012-01-20T10:58:00.000-08:00

Hello classmates and Miss today I don’t feel very well, I have so much sleep and in this moment I think that my vacations are far far away…Also, I don’t have so much Money now and that worries me…

Wathever, first, I think that vacations are very very important because all person needs a time for share with family, friends, boys friends or girl friends and for have a rest of the stress in the work or studies . A reward for all hours when you could not sleep because you studied for exam or you worked all day.

I think travel to the south with mi best friend , and go to visit a friends… in Curico when a friend lives with his mom and his brother , go to a litle village near Villa Rica when a school friend lives with her baby and her boyfriend, go to Temuco when other scholl friend have a house, and travel althought that regions.

We think go backpacking because my friend has not many Money and I have not any Money for the moment We want know small villages of the south, the beautiful nature specially in the national parks .
We believe that the south of Chile is very beautiful and that every región its charming it depends if you search the most representatives places,.

Maybe some day we managed to visita ll Chile, north and south…But I believe that do it is very difficult because we will need so much Money and because the more important politician and businessman or businesswoman are buying all the virgin territories in Chile(I say that because the past year when we visit part of the south we known many people that tell us about this.

Well, I hope travel this year with my friend and can take my rest of this awful term. 

Goodbye everyone!

newspapers article

2012-01-13T11:06:00.001-08:00

Hello My dear classmates and Miss today I had to read The Guardian's article in the web.

I chose a sexual health's article when a professional therapist answers all the questions that the newspaper readers send her.

In this occasion a woman writes about her particular intimate situation with her boyfriend.

She has a big trouble for development her sexual behavior specially for the strange behavior of her boyfriend in the intimacy time.He believes that sexual act is inappropriate for he and his girlfriend and prefer avoid because he said to girlfriend that -"Sexual contact has always been contrived and quick".

She believes that her boyfriend unlike her and that he is a asexual man but she wants to fix this situation but she does not how.

Also, she feels very bad because he does not a biological explanation for his behavior.

The sexual therapist explains her that is important that seek psychosexual therapy together, it's the only solution and although she notes that the writter`s woman loves her boyfriend it is important that improve their situation because just this way they can development their relationship in the sexual and emotional aspects.

I think that the sexual specialist have reason because just a good communication between they can resolve their problems and make grow up as a happy couple.

About movies!

2012-01-06T11:10:00.000-08:00

Hello my dear classmates and Miss, today I have to speak about “movies” , particularly that I liked.

First, I want to talk about movies because I believe that movies are important kind of record of our society,also movies let Know the culture and history of far away societies and this its very interesting for me.Besides, movies present us a lot of interesting histories of important figures of politics, music, fashion, history, arts, science in anothers…

Movies can be fantastic, funny, mysterious, horrific, very sad as a drama, romantic or totally fabricated, but movies will always be a reflection the context in which they are made.

Now, my favorite kind of movies is horror and some Drama movies, specially more artistic movies.

I don’t have one favorite movie, I know that every time that I saw a good movie I say “Oh my God it’s my favorite movie!”, but late I saw other good movie and I say “It’s my favorite movie too” and later I forget all movies that I saw for remember my new favorites movies.

My last favorite movie that I see it’s called “Kinsey”, and this movie is about a scientist that studied people's sexuality for first time, and I am really recommend it!

Italia! a beautiful and romantic country

2012-01-02T16:59:00.000-08:00

Hello classmates and Miss,

First, I would like to greet for the new year and wish you many good things for you and your family!

Today, I will talk about a country I want to visit.
Italia is my choice because every time I hear something about it I feel in my heart that tells me -" you have to go"-

For this time I don´t know so much about this country but I also find that it is one of the countries with better quality of life in the world, besides being an important country as a reference for fashion and design, especially for cars,for example, with its beautiful cars "Fiat".(My father has one, and that car brings to me many memories of my childhood to be a nice car and good quality)

In addition, the psychology in this country is much more developed on the issues that interest me , for example I know that in Italia stars the way called "anti-psychiatry" and even now continues to develop strongly.
Also, this country has long been the cradle of the Renaissance so I guess there must be many museums and architectural remains exemplify it.

I Know that In this country the people using the bicycle as a means of transport and not just for exercise or walking on the weekends, I really like this (I hope someday to be so in Chile).

If I can to go to Italia, I would like to visit all cities and towns and I will use my bicycle for this. I also like to make a phD about the matters that interest me and come back with more knowledge to share and develop in my work in Chile.
I want to found some italian boy for a romantic adventure too!...(hahaha)
I always imagine that italian Boys are so much romantics that in another country,
I really hope so!XD
Finally, this country has interesting stories with relation to the Mafia, which has controlled certain political and economic decisions in the country, so it remains a mysterious and problems to solve as a country,that is why there good movies that have inspired it.

Strange and warm semester!

2011-12-23T11:03:00.000-08:00

This is a really really strange term , I think I need a rest but I have to finish my major specially soon because I need to begin my profesional practice.Another reason for finish quickly, its for my parents because they get impatient for my future.
I had not many expections for this term, because is very short and so hot semester and I felt that specially in a academic level, teachers will teach his subject for a rapid memorization and that finally the students will not learn nothing, this had discouraged me, but now I'm realizing that in the  subjects that I took, teachers are putting all their dedication that everything goes well, and that  motivates me to get to class.
This semester I took only matters that I liked, for example, I took Freud Theory, and although I do not believe much in psychoanalysis is interesting to learn his theory specially for the importance for a history of psychology.
Another matter that I took is "gender and sexual theory" , because any taught me about that theme and I am really interested in that.
I also took a matter of youth and high school, because I wanted to know about education in Chile, especially in the current context where there is a great review on this topic.
I took a practice matter and one matter comunitary called" tv and community " this matter is obviously about tv and and its influence on the community, especially the free television (national channels)

So far have been entertaining subjects, except Freud's theory that is sometimes  really boring  but not without interest.
Now I do not feel very well studyng  among family celebrations but perhaps the other year I have a better disposition to study and finish my career in a good way.

Finally think I'm finally finding what I really like but I learn more about it outside of class that in them.

My favourite place

2011-12-23T10:08:00.001-08:00

My favorite place

Hello boys and girls! today I want to tell about my favourite place,

the truth is that now I have not one favourite place,

because it would cost me to choose just one, but I will try to think in some nice places for me.

For example, in my last vacations my best friend Paola and I visited some villages in southern of Chile specifically in the X Region, called " Región de Los Lagos".

We could not travel throughout the region but we could know a beautiful park in the capital "Puerto Montt", the park is a nature reserve called "El alerce Andino". In the park we could see beautiful larch of hundreds years, So to reach them if we had to climb a large hill, if we had climbed two hills, we could have seen larchs of thousands of years , but it was too much for us that we had been about 5 hours up and down the hill !

the park was really beautiful, was very well kept and sometimes seemed like a great forest of stories,the first day we we were alone in a camp and heard many noises at night, especially birds that lived in the park and also sawone or two mouse lying around, this was all very exciting as we can never experience something like this in any city.

In the park had a small creek where you could get water, the water was delicious and also could make bonfires always taking care not to cause accidents and leaving clean when another traveler came to camp.

If you can go to Puerto Montt you really should visit "Alerce Andino" park, in this place you will can swim in a lake, climb hills, know beautiful and ancients trees, make campfires and share some good times with friends or family, as the park also was a perfect place to go with family even with small children.
I will also try to go to the park again this holiday , but this time we will better prepared than last time because we almost froze at night because we had a very bad tent :( .That was the only bad thing about our stay in the park!

What is psychology? for me...

2009-05-21T21:53:00.000-07:00

Defining psychology seems very difficult for me ,because it involves many things that did not even know, but I think that it is a very pretty and useful career .

Psychology is "the nurse or curator of the affections of the soul" for me , it will be a tool to help those who feel they have something in their head that bad.

My career have some problems, as that it is not clearly defined in its arguments, but the diversity of views enrich the career.

I think that psychology is a career for people who likes to help and want to be a commitment to society, especially for people who feel dissatisfied with their lives and their ways of acting against it.I decided to study psychology for these reasons and perhaps for personal reasons but I have no clear, but that I will discover through my development in these studies.
In general, I love this race because it gives me the tools and training that will give my thoughts the ability to be useful to others in need.

Further, the approach of the great founders of psychology, and his followers are also very interesting to study and very applicable to everyday life.

One photograph that I like is this.This photograph make me feel so much feelings, as nostalgic and happines .

In this picture appear two classmates in the Miguel León Prado Istitute ; Paola and Loreto and I, the "lole " XD.

I am the girl in the left corner, the next girl of the pink dress is Paola, and the girl of the green t- shirt is called Loreto or "Lolo".

Paola is one of my best friends :).

The day that someone took this picture
was in 2006, the last year in the school.
That day we are painting a picture in a school wall to participate in partnerships, in the school anniversary, in september.

We were painting for four days from morning until evening,that was very exhausting!

Some days many children went to help us,
but they were very small and could not reach in the uppers corners and they did not paint very well D : .

In the last day we collapsed, but we finally finished the picture in the wall and it was pretty.

We didn't win, because we got penalized for not using water-based paints (we used lead based ones), so that substracted us points. After all experience was great.

2009-05-06T07:32:00.000-07:00

I haven't a real most precious posession, but my friends are the best that I have, maybe my most precious possesion.:)

My friends are not so much, but are the best of the best in my world.

I have friends in the university, and friends of the school too.

All my friends are very crazy, very sweet, very intelligent, very funny and each one of them is very special for me.

Some are very happy all the time, and others are very melancholy.

Some paint very pretty, and some write very beautiful , others dance very good, and others sing and play music very fine, specially the guitar .

Each one of them are very artistic people and sensitive and with all of them I spend a good time.

The life give to me all these friends, and i am very I'm very grateful with it.

My last vacations

2009-04-29T15:46:00.000-07:00

My last vacation i went to " Las Cruces " beach, that place is in V region , in Chile.

I went to Las Cruces in January, in this summer, for a weekend.

I went to that place with my mother and my sisters,i did not go with my father because he stayed working in Santiago , more later in the weekend we met with my uncles and my cousins.

One cousin have twenty one years old , similar to me , because this, she and me went for a walk by the beach in the night.

Me and my family stayed in the "Villa trouville ", that Hotel was very clean and very beautiful.
Besides, the hotel had a beautiful view.

Something remarkable that happened was that we went near of the beach where had amusement park and a craft fair , both was pretty and funny.

I liked the weather in that place because it is not very cool and it is not very hot, the weather is very nice.
I think that no matter that i will forget because my last vacation was not very funny , my vacations was a little bored in fact, but it is always nice to see the sea and is good to be with my family, specially , my mather .
The next vacations i want to go to Perú wit my best friends, it would be fabulous!
This is why i am working and i am saving , because i want that the next vacations will be very
wonderful! and that i can not never forget!

"My Best friend "

2009-04-22T07:28:00.000-07:00

Hello boys and girls !
nice to see you again in my blog!
Today i will tell you about my best friend, her name is Paola and she have 21 years old,
her hair is blonde and she have many freckles in her face, she is very beatiful !
Actually she studied philosophy in the campus Gomez Millas of the Universidad de Chile in the same place where i studied.

I met her in the school when we had forteen years old approximately when i arrived in the "Instituto Miguel León Prado", she was my classmate .
When i met i founded that she was very nice but we did not speak to much in the beggining.
I really met her when we went to school trip to Villarrica.

My dearest memory about her was when we went to Quintero in 2006, it was really funny!
Every days we done new things, some days we went down to the beach and others days we walked around the forests.Quintero is very beatiful for me.

The greatest aventure we have had together it was when we went to Horcones beach.
Horcones beach is packed of hippyes , is very small but is very beatiful and popular.
One day when we was in Quintero, we went to Horcones in the night and we got in a boat in the coast and here we talked many hours, it was very nice.

The things that i like about her are a lot; she is very beatiful, very nice , very intelligent, very good, she writes very good, she paints very fine, she sings and plays guitar.
She is a very good friend and sensitive person , she is like a poppy or some cloud.

The things i dislike about her is that she is to much sensitive sometimes , but nothing more.

I envy , mmmm...
Nothing because everything is good as is. :)

If i could , i would give to much poppies and red skies, good coffe and tea, many books, and many scarves.

english reasons!

2009-04-15T07:56:00.000-07:00

Hello boys and girls!
My name is Loreto Leiva, but i want that you call me "Lole",
because Lole is my nickname from the college and bring me many good memories. :)

In this moment , i am here, in the english class , here i am learning to read,write and speak in english with our teacher Miss Zagal.
I am not very good english student, and the english in mi life don't bring me

Nevertheless , i will make an effort! ,
But i like the english class in the university and i like to write in blogs so much!
Besides, the english will be useful for my career, because many books are in english and this language will be useful for speak with others psychologysts in others countries.
