Criminal Laws

I think that Capital punishment isnt`t a good solution to reduce criminality, because we are not people to judge. Only God can judge us. I think that it is better to train criminals for a special area, and they will be able to insert themselves in the laboral life, and they leave the bad accions.

The pros and cons in Capital punishment are:

Pros (+)

- The criminal never come back to hurt somebody.
- The families afected have a rest and consolation.

Cons (-)

- We are not people to judge to other people, because we are human, and we make mistakes.
-The families of a criminals will sufer very much.


The government should give more laboral posibilities to reduce criminality rates in Santiago, because the people wouldn`t need to cheat or steal anything, because they have their own money.

The origin of the increasing criminality rates in Chile are the financial and economical inequalities, because the people in too many ocasions don`t have the suficient adquisitive power to get things. And in this time, this power moves the entire world.

I have been a victim of burglary pick pocketing many times, and this makes me angry. Also, in one oportunity a gypsy stole me $10.000!!! It is a fraud, because she said to me that my family doesn`t love me, and the world is bad, and a lot of nosenses!

Anyway, I think that having another way to resolve the social problems in a good way...

What to do? Where to go in Santiago?

If you come to Santiago, you must visit in the heart of city centre the palace of government called: "La Moneda", this is a very beautiful construction opened in 1804. You can walk in the interior yards of this building and in a special day of the year, called "the day of cultural patrimony" on 25th of May you can go inside of the Palace and visit the diferent lounges and halls.

Another very entertaining place is the MIM "Interactive Museum Mirador", this is an interactive museum, and very didactic too. For all ages! This place is located in the south of city four blocks away from Mirador Subway.

Regarding relaxing places you must visit "Balthus Spa" it is the biggest Spa in Chile, located in the north of City in the neighbourhood of Vitacura. It is a beautiful place with a covered swimming pool, jacuzzi,ice salon, water vapour salon, sauna, solarium, gym and beautiful salon! And also you can go for a massage! You leave the spa feeling healthy and better!

At night, Bellavista neighbourhood is a very good place to go out at a party or drink some, it is a very good option to meet new people!

You must also visit the Central Market in the center of city and eat a traditional dish, for example: a paila marina (for the hangover), a cazuela, a paila marina, a Chilean salad accompanied with a traditional wine.

My experience in High School

I went to high school in a school called Santa Cruz located in Santiago Centro (Nataniel Cox with Victoria). This school offers personalized education. I went to this school during 5 years, since 2001 to 2005.

My experience in this school was very good. Because y knew many beautiful people. A think that I can remember was the support of my philosophy teacher. She was a very good teacher , she taught me many things, and she was very nice with me.

Other thing that I never forgoten was my group of friends called "Tartaris" they was (and still they are) very important to me. They always been with me in all dificults moments of my life, situations like the death of my grandmother last month...

The technology in my high school was very well, we had computers a proyection room for power point presentations, and a wide and modern library.

The bad points in my high school experience was a period of mi life that I didn´t like, because I had a period of depression, and all things seemed bad. Everything looked different through the depression eyes...

I say to our authoroties is improve the quality of education in this country,
implementing attractive and innovative methods in schools and providing teachers committed to their teaching.

Transantiago: Before and After

I have a divided opinion about Transantiago, because it is good in some points, and bad in other points. In fact, the system changed a lot, and this is very good for the environment and also for the economy of Santiago residents.

Now, this system is better than “Yellow buses”, because the bus stop has been put in order: With the route of each bus, the colors of each zone in a system call:
“Segregated bus stop.”

But, the problem with this new system is the long wait in the bus stop during peak hours every day . The razon? The precarious implementation of new and old buses, because the total number of buses decreased.

I still remember the date when Transantiago started. Transantiago began a: 10 February of 2007. This buses were completely unknown for the people, and everything was collapsed, because nobody knew for certain which bus we should take, and ask to somebody who work in Transantiago. These persons gave maps, and instructions to keep all in order and every bus itinerary was clear.

Now the system has been improved.

A country I would like to visit

I would like to go to México, because it is a very special place for me. I know many things about it because my parents lived there in the period of dictadure. In fact my big brother was born in a place called “Tulancingo” in the field.

The most exciting place is the Aztecs pyramis , because they are amazing and beautiful . And the people (in my opinion) is very nice and simple.

Other thing that I like very much is the mexican food, splecially the “Tacos”, with a great variety of sauces, cheese, chicken or met. But my favourite one is the “Burrito” with melted cheese.

I like to do many things: In the beginning to share with my mexican family, and to know the museums, the universities and the different landscapes. Also I would like to know and share with different people , especially with rural people.

I would be delighted to be able to study, my dream is to go away as exchange student for a semester, and after that to come back to my country to finishing my career studies.

In a future I would like to return to México to work with the rural people, and teach and to be able to teach at childrens in a local school.
Finally, my plan is to live in Mexico and to know them customs and traditions.

My experience in the first term 2009

The most relevant things that I learnt and I studied last term was to make qualitative investigations , to find and know our social environment through a new perspective that incorporates the understanding , the skills and cognitives competences that foster the students learning in the classroom.

I didn´t do any sports last term because my timetable didn´t math up with the campus sports. But in my free time I went eversy Saturday to scouts, and share with the kids and leaders to this organization. In fact we celebrated our Aniversary number fourteen with the parents of kids, and we ate a mexican snacks called “Tacos”. This was a very enjoy celebration!

I had to faced to the finish of term, because at the end of the term, the subjects was very difficult because I had to make a lot of individuals and group workings. And finally, I gave all Works. I ended up feeling very tired! But to be worth it.
After all my efortt, the best was I can do what ever I like, and I visited to my best friend, and share with a french friend call Mathilde because she stay in this town for the winter vacations.

Also, I could share more time with my family, and I could to enjoy my new house.
And I organized a party family, and all enjoyed this time toghether.
