Yay!!!
I'm Finishing My english blog and first I want to say:
Thanks to Mr. Victor and Ms. Zagal for being such an amazing couple of teachers, you always gave my the right corrections and tips to improve my english.
thanks a lot.!!
I think that this subject is one of the most important in the program of every career, because is part of the integral formation of students that maybe, one day, will travel to continue their studys outside the country. They must to have skills to defend themselves, and learning another language is one of that skills. When I was in Washington DC, I realize how important is to know how to write, read, speak and listen another language. I never had big problems to communicate my self and my ideas, even in a dance class, where teachers use a "technical language".
In order to improve how to express myself writing, the blog is an amazing tool to know and correct the way that im writing, and how to develop a point of view not only using a formal language, also using an informal one.
I think that I need to improve my listening and speaking skills, is really different to read and write, than speak and listen, I'm always used to listen american english, and with british accent my ear goes crazy, so I have to know the difference of the pronunciation, and the sounds of some words.
Outside of the class I'm always using my english, as I tell you before, I was in DC, in that place I made a lot of friends and when I have to talk with them in Facebook chat, whatsapp or Skype I prefer to use my english instead of they use their spanish (is awful hahahaha)

2015 Reflections...
Wow... I have to think a lot.
This year, was a really moved year.
I started saying this:
THIS YEAR MY NEPHEW WAS BORN...!!!
(so you can imagine the happiness and joy that I'm feeling)
One of the most important thing to say, is that this year:
I found love.
I earn lots of knowledge.
I have big jobs achievements.
and a big travel.
University: I had really great marks in almost everything that I did, Essays, Choreographies, Technical Exams, etc.
Job: I got a promotion, now in addition to be a teacher in Bailemos Todos dance academy, I'm general director of the junior company.
Artistic life: I was choose:
To dance in Multitud on Santiago a Mil Festival.
To be in Wuppertal Pina Bausch Workshop.
To Dance in Qatachillay, a piece that mix music and dance on stage.
To be Part of an amazing group of Vogue femme dance.
Travelling: I were in USA taking dance classes... two months!
The situations that haven't work was my coxis injured, I think that caused on me a big emotional crush, because, on 2014 I had a hip injured, and that year, after being almost in the surgical ward. I talk to myself... 2015 gonna be my healthy year...
But it wasn't.
The Course that I enjoyed the most was "Modern Technique", knowing Rodrigo Fernandez (the master of....!) was an amazing experience, for first time I felt my body on a proof in every single class... I enjoyed and share his vision ans perspective of dancing.
Other thing that I want to mention...
Ignacio Jara, you are my one and only.
Thank you.

Summer Plans
It's summer time!!!!
yay!!!!
vacations Are really near to me, I can feel the Sea Breeze, the smell of sunblock, the taste of natural fruit juice, etc.
Because I love the beach, I love to swim in the sea, sleep under the sun in order to getting a tan, etc.
(even if I have brown skin all the year).
So...
For me, the beach is a synonym of vacations, and summer also. If I can't go to the beach in my holiday period, I wouldn't say that I'm on vacations.
This year, i would like to visit "La Herradura Beach" in Coquimbo, Chile. The last year vacation, i went to the U.S. to feel the real winter (Oh God). This time I prefer to swim and feel the sea water on my feet, instead of the snow and cold in my nose.
This year, i would like to be with my boyfriend, we're both dancers, so the time during the normal year it's so tiny, so we have to take advantage of vacations, with him we already bought the plane tickets and we are ready to having fun...!
We choose the fourth region to our vacations, because we can do a lot of things without travelling a lot.
I think that this year, we're gonna camp in Elqui's valley for 4 or 5 days, then, we're gonna stay with my sister in her apartment to enjoy of the view and the beach (the backyard of her apartment is the beach).
In the night i want to go to dance to some place, but nothing special, go to the Enjoy Cassino to play a little and that's it.
But, I prefer not to plan everything.
I'm already working until january 31... so, I think that this summer, will be a really busy one.

Let's talk about money
Okay... let's talk about the dirty and nasty money...
Well first of all, I have to say that I like/hate money, it's really sad to know that in 2016 the 1% richer will have enough money to for the 99% left. AWFUL!!! But the main reason of my "moneyhating syndrome" is that everybody turn around material things, for example:
Guy:"What are you studying?"
Me: I'm studying arts..
Guy: and... Will you earn enough money...?
Me: Think so... how much its enough for you?
Guy: well I don't know... buying a BIG HOUSE with swimming pool in a good neighborhood, like providencia... a nice car, one travel outside the country per year...
Me: Ok... nothing to do here.
So...
For me, money is important... but not the amount of money that I can earn, because I believe in an austere life. I think that everybody have to earn only the necessary. But I hate it to, because, if someone need:
Good and quick health.
Study.
Food.
Good retirement.
Travel.
etc.
Guess what... YOU NEED MONEY ALSO!!!! and not a small amount... a big big amount...
and that's it, in this era... It's impossible to realize all your dreams without a big amount of money, so that's why I hate it. Why we can not just pay the right price?
I earn per month like 180.000 pesos. and with that I have to pay:
- $90.000 of College Tuition in one of two Institutions where I'm doing my degree. I have a Scholarship in the other one.
-$ 20.000 transport.
-$30.000 extra ballet classes.
- $20.000 food.
- $10.000 extra things.
- $10.000 Holiday background.
I think that I'm the worst managing my money, because I always spend more in extra things like party, etc. so i have to do extra job to earn enough money to pass my month, or also spend a lot of money in food... because I'm always hungry...
hahahahaha
If I would be millionaire, I'll invest my money in my education, travel around the world, pay my parents house and buy my own, and buy like 5 or 6 condos to rent them and earn more money.
"If you ever had to pawn any of your belongings, what would it be? Why?"
Nothing, I prefer to find a thousand of jobs before pawning something, because all the thing that I have, were gifts or something that I have to work a lot to earn it, so, this things have another value.

How green I am...
The first thing I have to say, is that I'm not green... I'm brown.
(LOL)
(worst joke ever....anyway)
Well, my entire education was in a private with state financing school without environmentally friendly practices. I remember that my school used to use a lot of paper, ink, electric devices, and a big big etcetera.
So, all my environmentally friendly practices I have learned in my Scout troop. with them I learned to:
Recycle.
Use organic garbage as plant fertilizer.
Use energy saving light bulbs.
Turn of the lights when nobody are using them.
Use windows without curtains to take advantage of sunlight.
Avoid wasting water taking short showers.
etc.
Of all this list, I just practice the energy and water saving, but recycling its hard, cause in my home, nobody do anything of that things, nobody save energy, nobody save water, nobody recycle. So, it's like swim against the tite.
I'm a supporter of Greenpeace, i thinks that their job are escential to develop environmental politics.
In order to decrease my carbon footprint, I try to use my Laptop just with the battery, Use Saving light bulbs, and things that I've described before.
I think that Santiago doesn't have enough Environmentally Friendly politics.
The air and sound pollution is really high and we are depending of raining in order to have clean air.
Just the richer communities have this kind of politics.
(LOL)

My Perfect Job
Okay... Let's see...
My perfect job is: Candy Creator and Tester...!!!
Yeah, i think that would be my perfect job, not just because I love candy, but it also I love to eat. Eating is one of my favorite things to do in the whole planet, but dancing always will be the number one.
Anyway, I can imagine myself in this job being like Willy Wonka (from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), making new flavors, new kind of candies, for example: light candies, candies to diabetic people, candies with real fruits, the biggest candy in the universe, or a mix of candies depending the customers choice.
I think this job can make me travel a lot, ooooh yes, not just because i'll be a candy creator, but it also because I'll be a candy researcher. Traveling country by country researching cultural customs to know things like: taste of their preference, flavors, colors, shape, and how to market the product depending of the purchasing power of each country and the obesity rate, this last two in order to sell low cost candies to poor countries, and "stevia Candies" to fat countries.
I don't like offices, so, I'll have a tree house instead of.
Well, all of this dream is just my Perfect and unreal job.
I'm studying a Bachelor in Artes With Major in Dance. In simple words, I'll be a dancer, or a dance teacher, or a dance researcher, or a dance creator, (AKA choreographer).

MY B.F.F
Well, This time I'll talk about something not real, instead of the reality of who is my best friend...
I met him in 1954, January 5 to be exactly. I remember myself walking down a street in Saint Peter of Atacama, was really late in the night, almost midnight. That night was really special, those beautiful and clear skies, full of stars and marihuana smoke make me think in the book of a chilean writer, Enrique Barrios, the name of this tale is "Ami, el niño de las estrellas"... In the middle of that thinking, I saw in the sky a really bright and shiny light getting close to my tent (yes, I was camping there), I ran to my place to see what was it, but the light suddenly start to bright more, more and more, and suddenly, disappear.
When I arrived to the camping, there wasn't nobody, I walk a couple of steps just to realize that my tent was burning and full of smoke. I said to myself OHHH MYYY GOOOOD!!! ("·%·$%&"·$%) I ran faster just to try to turn off the fire, but every effort would be worthless, all my things were gone. I got close, and saw a kind of machine, it seems like a starship.
PFFFFFFFFF... was the sound of the ship, a door starts to open, but nobody was inside, I thought, were is the astronaut? I was wondering to myself that, when somebody tapped my shoulder. I jumped like I frog, I was surprised/scared.
Next to me was a kid, with human form and a kind smile, I ask him "where is your mom" and he answered, "my mom is like, 30000000 lightyears from here"
So kid, What is your name?, "you can not able to pronounce my name, because has sounds are not present in your language" After that moment, I knew that everything in my life would going to be different.
He invites to me to see the sun, and a thousand of planets, he was able to control the time, and we visited the past of our planet, I saw dinosaurs and the first humans on earth. I met his people, and I realize that we are not alone on the universe.
He is my best friend, because he never put a condition to share, love and spend time together, he thought to me the value of friendship and empathy.
We are friends from that day (January 5 of 1954) till today 61 years, sometimes he comes to visit me, and we ride the stars together.
The best memory that we have together was the day that we stays in Jupiter for two days, we get lost inside the stain of Jupiter. Was amazing to see how the people of his planet went to rescue us.
thats it...!!!
