Self Evaluation of my academic year (2009)

Already half way through November, and finding myself in a situation of termination of activities, both academic and sports, it must conduct an assessment of these aspects. Moving on from my performance in the subjects, such as marks and learning, even my emotional life and my general perception of development of my life in this year. Thus, it is important to take stock about all the activities I have done this year, so learn from the mistakes I made and virtue that is necessary to promote. On that line, I wanted to present to all readers of this blog, an evaluation of the ideas and developments throughout this year 2009, which was marked by the important learning I have had regard to the race of Sociology, This has greatly increased my knowledge.

First, I will refer to the academic field, have generally done well, because as I said, I've learned a lot and the subjects that have touched me so much in the first half and the second, have been very interesting because they are very interesting subjects, which link the problems of modern society from various angles, (such as theory) and how to intervene in that reality through computational tools to process information so as to carry out a statistical analysis of data collected.

This learning what I could bring to other areas, for example to address problems posed by the subject of Population and Society, which focuses on demographic issues and sectored requirements as the age structure of populations. There is complemented very well the theoretical sociological knowledge (in the second half continued with Theory IV) and statistical learning. But not all is numbers and variables. In the first half I had a very interesting subject, that saying concerning qualitative research. This was very important in my training, and then gave me a lot of experience on the research itself.

In sporting terms, I did so well, but I am still playing some things, the most important tournament and we lost. that's a shame because it was an important goal for this year.

Overall, I can say that the year was good, because as far as college is concerned, I've learned a lot and sociological knowledge acquired did not have before, so I advanced in my training as a professional. While the sporting theme I was not very good, which is rescued keeping me doing physical activity, which is what I like and I know that working hard, sooner or later will pay with wins and championships.

My dear Free Time

I love my free time, especially because I do what I want. For example, I love sports, especially playing soccer. I always want to be playing. Another thing I like is to share with my friends, both at university and in my home or anywhere! It`s very nice, always drink a glass of wine or a lot of pilseners, it's fantastic! But, there are times when the university does not allow those things that demand time study or activities that you have as a student. I try to pass that I that am always good to relax a little and jump to life.
In terms of illegality, one has their vices ... one likes pulling his filthy.... although I doubt it's anything bad, I smoke my cannabis (natural only) and I stick my kicks ... Heroin also often share ... now, it should be limited because there are always worried that want to smoke pasta... and that is equal to death ... I can never afford to smoke it.
In my free time also I dedicate to my girlfriend ... it`s fun to spend my time with it ... I'm always with her ... we laugh and a good time. Often in my spare time working to earn money... work together. I have the desire to always be doing things, I like to do everything, watch movies, watch football, go to the stadium, go to a pub, go to the disco, go out into the square, waver in college, do barbecue ... one never misses the big picture ... but the body has a limit and you get tired ... I'm tired when I get home and sleep ... I love to sleep when I'm tired ... but I cannot sleep much because my back hurts ... jaja is funny but true and I wake up in the pure pain of lying, so I have to get up and do things.
When I'm alone, or we are alone with my girlfriend, I love cooking...I have very good hand she says. On holidays, when free time is all the time! I like sending me to change, wherever it is, go away from the noise and the city ... I love the beach and the countryside... I like going to rest and to reel.

A Good Film to see...

Football Stories is a film that focuses on three stories of this sport in different areas of life. The first story, realizes an outstanding footballer street with a very promising future. Unfortunately, it falls into the hands of the leaders by the attraction of dirty money. So, for sale and sell the team to lose, which does not happen and finally ends up being punished by the mob leaders.

The second story, about a gang of kids in the Atacama desert, who while they were outside the stadium in Calama receive a soccer ball that falls as "from above". It's a very touching story that shows human poverty and the quest for football that exists in childhood.

The third shows the arrival of a young of Santiago on the island of Chiloe, the story is framed in the World cup Spain 1982 on the day that Chile played against Germany. This young, soccer-loving age awakens instincts deserve two spinster sisters in the solitude of the island.

The third shows the arrival of a young Santiago on the island of Chiloe, the story is framed in the World Spain 1982 on the day that Chile played against Germany. This young, soccer-loving age and awakens instincts deserve two spinster sisters in the solitude of the fjords chilotes. These sisters invite you to watch the game with them, as do a curanto (typical food of Chiloé).

Unfortunately the weather conditions are not good and the television antenna began to fail. Finally, one of the sisters taught him which is really the passion of the crowds (scene where the woman says grabbing the breasts).

This film marks a before and after in sensitizing people in a special way with this sport so exciting. Personally, I like a lot, because embodied in images and in "football stories" three scopes that have the game in life itself. Rescue as a very complete football articulates the practices of people and is the independent variable to decide sometimes.

Before the “El Chacotero”, “Sex with Love” or “Subterra”, was “Historias de Fútbol” to lead the way for the new national cinema. Simple stories, but deeply human, lovable, affectionate. A trilogy of short films that begin to show Chile all day from the neighborhood to the “Pichanga” unhealthy passion to reach the World Cup. The story of the delivery guys goats perhaps a postcard of how many ordinary lives that will be reflected with nostalgia. This is the importance of Andrés Wood, the director of this film.

The Emerging Markets...the future...today...

YES!

Emerging markets have been the place to invest in the last decade. Mainly the markets of Brazil, India and Russia. The most recent performance of emerging markets has been even better than the developed ones.

This is not only because the developed markets like the U.S. and the United Kingdom is reducing by the global recession.

Claire Simmonds, a portfolio manager of emerging markets for JPMorgan said that "The surprising thing is how resilient they were." She thinks they are "too big to ignore", which represent 80% of world population, 70% of global foreign exchange reserves and half of world exports - however, only 12% of capitalization world market. "Our view is that premium growth will remain". . "Now we can speak of an engine of national growth that did not exist 20 years ago," says Slim Feriani, a fund manager with Progressive market specialists in emerging markets in developing countries. "Consumers in emerging markets is from a low base."

Then, these referred to as the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China) are positioning over the decades as new economic powers, that rather than remain in the consumer base for the many people, being set up as the engine of the global economy.

ThE CoNgReSS iN BuEnOs AiReS.....lalala

Hi fans, has spent much time since the last time I wrote.

Today I am going to talk about my last trip.

This was to Argentina, specifically to the city of Buenos Aires. There, I have an uncle who lives with my cousins. They took me in a good way and we shared a lot. It also meant a great saving for me because I did not have to pay hostel.

With respect to congress, I was to a very good conference. The topic was the social movements by students in America Latina, and it was very linked to the sociology and the approach that was given to the student mobilizations established as a starting point for the social transformation.

One of the negative points of the congress was the disorganization, which gave a very sparse.

Without doubt that the most exciting of all, tour the city and experience the beauty of Puerto Madero, in there are the best memories of Buenos Aires, and more over just the day we went was gorgeous weather.

Balance of the first half....

In this opportunity, I`m going to tell you about my experiences in the first half of the year 2009, including my personal life, my student life and the others activities that I have done. Firstly, in the university aspects, the first semester was very interesting for my, because I learned very useful things for my labor development, for example, in subjects like statistics. In this subject puts in question on the fact of understanding the reality by means of models based on equations, defining well the epistemology categories that imply the reduction of the social relations to numbers. That was very funny to study for me, but not very easy, because the teacher is a very difficult tester.
With regard to the sport theme, the first term of this year was very fruitful, so I`m a football player, and I play in two teams. One of they names Baltilokos, and we won all our matches. The other team names Ciencias Sociales and it`s the team of the faculty. And with this team we have very good results too.
In relation to my family, the things have walked well and we have not had big problems, for example of health. Now then, I concern of the economic crisis, the situation has been difficult and for this side we have not walked so well. But the most important thing is that we are united and with a good health. The combination of all these elements they do that it is a good semester in general terms.
